Dear Shareholders:

 

On behalf of the Board of Directors of HHG Capital Corporation (the “Company” or “we”), I invite you to attend our Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). We hope you can join us. The Annual Meeting will be held:

 

  At: Loeb & Loeb LLP, 2206-19 Jardine House, 1 Connaught Place Central, Hong Kong SAR (and via video conference at https://www.cleartrustonline.com/hhgc.
  On:

September  , 2022

  Time: 10 a.m. local time

 

The Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Proxy Statement and the proxy card accompany this letter, together with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 will be first mailed to our shareholders on or about August   , 2022.

 

As discussed in the enclosed Proxy Statement, the Annual Meeting will be devoted to

 

(i) A proposal to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) twelve (12) times for an additional one month (1) each time from September 23, 2022 (the “Current Termination Date”) to September 23, 2023 (the termination date as so extended, the “Extended Termination Date”);

 

(ii) A proposal to amend (the “Trust Amendment”) the Company’s investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of September 20, 2021, by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “trustee”), as amended, to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from September 23, 2022 to September 23, 2023 by depositing into the trust account $0.0155 for each issued and outstanding Company ordinary share issued in the IPO (each, a “Public Share”) that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $88,867 if there are no redemptions) (the “Extension Payment”) for each one-month extension in the event the Company has not consummated a business combination by the Extended Termination Date;

 

(iii) A proposal to elect five directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death; and

 

(iv) To act on such other matters as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

 

The Company’s IPO prospectus dated September 20, 2021 provides that the Company initially had until March 23, 2023 (after two three-month extensions) to complete its initial business combination. The Company’s charter was most recently amended and restated on September 20, 2021 with the Current Termination Date of September 23, 2022, which can be extended to March 23, 2023 after two three-month extensions. The only way to extend the Combination Period from September 23, 2022 without the need for a separate shareholder vote under the current Charter and Trust Agreement is for our insiders or their affiliates or designees, upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, to deposit into the Trust Account $575,000 (i.e., $0.10 per issued Public Share, for each three-month extension, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. The purpose of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment is to allow the Company an option to further extend the time to complete a business combination. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to allow the Company to extend the time to complete a business combination a total of twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time and provide that the date for cessation of operations of the Company if the Company has not completed a business combination would similarly be extended to the Extended Termination Date. This would result in the Company being able to extend the date for completing its initial business combination up to twelve (12) times on a monthly basis beginning on September 23, 2022.

 

 
 

 

The purpose of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment is to allow for twelve (12) monthly extensions, each with a required Extension Payment of $0.0155 each month for each Public Share that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $88,867 assuming no redemptions). Our insiders or their affiliates or designees will elect to exercise each extension on a month-to-month and as-needed basis only. Our sponsor and certain of his affiliates have executed a waiver agreement with the Company (the “Waiver Agreement”) pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to 3,084,000 Public Shares owned by them of any and all Extension Payments made into the Trust Account. The effect of the proposed Charter Amendment and the Trust Agreement, when taken together with the Waiver Agreement, will result in no economic change to the existing rights of all other public shareholders in and to their pro rata share of the Trust Fund, all of whom will continue to accrue the same $0.10 per share interest (per every three one-month extensions and assuming no redemptions) that they currently have under the current Charter and current Trust Agreement.

 

We know that many of our shareholders will be unable to attend the Annual Meeting. We are soliciting proxies so that each shareholder has an opportunity to vote on all matters that are scheduled to come before the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend, please take the time now to read the Proxy Statement and vote by submitting by mail a paper copy of your proxy or vote instructions, so that your shares are represented at the meeting. You may also revoke your proxy or vote instructions and change your vote at any time prior to the Annual Meeting. Regardless of the number of Company shares you own, your presence in person or by proxy is important for quorum purposes and your vote is important for proper corporate action.

 

Thank you for your continuing interest in HHG Capital Corporation. We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting.

 

If you have any questions about the Proxy Statement, please contact us at HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth Lane, #03-20, Singapore, 149544.

 

Sincerely,

 

   
Chee Shiong (Keith) Kok
Chief Executive Officer

Purpose of the Annual Meeting

 

At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon the following matters:

 

  1. A proposal to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) each time from September 23, 2022 (the “Current Termination Date”) to September 23, 2023 (the termination date as so extended, the “Extended Termination Date”).

  3. A proposal to elect five (5) directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death.
     
  4. To act on such other matters as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

 

The Company’s IPO prospectus provides that the Company initially had until March 23, 2023 (after two three-month extensions) to complete its initial business combination. Following the completion of our IPO in September 2021, our representatives have engaged in extensive discussions with business owners with respect to potential business combination opportunities. The purpose of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment is to allow the Company an option to further extend the time to complete a business combination. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to extend the Current Termination Date so to allow the Company to extend the time to complete a business combination up to twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time by depositing into the trust account an Extension Payment of $0.0155 for each Public Share that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $88,867 if there are no redemptions) for each one-month extension and provide that the date for cessation of operations of the Company if the Company has not completed a business combination would similarly be extended to the Extended Termination Date (the “Extension”). Under our current charter, in order to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination, our insiders or their affiliates or designees would be required to deposit $0.10 for each public ordinary share that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $575,000 if there are no redemptions) into the Trust Account for each three (3) months extension. The initial extension payment must be made prior to the Current Termination Date, while the second extension payment must be deposited into the trust account no fewer than five calendar days prior to the then existing termination date. Both the Trust Agreement and the Company’s charter will be amended to reflect the foregoing. The Charter Amendment is attached hereto as Annex A, and the Trust Amendment is attached hereto as Annex B.

 

 
 

 

Our sponsor, Mr. Hooy Kok Wai (the “Sponsor”), wants to pay an Extension Amount that is less than the $0.10 for each three-month extension provided by the current Charter and Trust Agreement, on a month-to-month and as-needed basis only. Under the current Charter and Trust Agreement, each three month extension payment would be $575,000, which if paid monthly instead of every three months would be $191,667. The amount now proposed to be paid for each monthly extension is $88,867 per month (assuming no redemptions), which would translate to $266,600 for each three month period. However, this would be contrary to the interests of our remaining public shareholders, who will have less funds in the Trust Account than if the extension provisions were not amended.

 

In order to remedy such a situation, the Company has reached an agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”) with the Sponsor, who is our largest public shareholder, and with certain other holders of Public Shares (the “Anchor Shareholders”) and who, as of August 17, 2022, together own 3,084,000 Public Shares, which represent 53.63% of all outstanding Ordinary Shares that are owned by our public shareholders. Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Anchor Shareholders have agreed to waive their pro rata share of all Extension Payments made into the Trust Account after the date hereof. As a result, each monthly Extension Payment (of $88,867 if there are no redemptions) that is paid into the trust account would be segregated so that only the Company’s public shareholders who have not redeemed their Shares, excluding the Anchor Shareholders, would receive their pro rata share of each such monthly extension payment (in addition to their pro rata share of amounts then in the trust account) upon redemption or upon the liquidation of the Company as provided in our amended charter after giving effect to the Charter Amendment. The Waiver Agreement also provides that the Anchor Shareholders will agree not to sell or otherwise transfer any of their Shares (subject to customary exceptions for transfers to certain family members and other affiliates) other than in connection with a redemption of their Shares or in the event that the Company is forced to dissolve or liquidate. The terms of the Waiver Agreement, when taken together with the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment, would place all of our shareholders (other than the Anchor Shareholders) in the same financial position that they would have been if each monthly extension payment was equal to one-third of the payment for each three-month extension provided for under our current charter.

 

After consultation with the Sponsor, Company management has reasons to believe that, if the Charter Amendment and Trust Amendment proposals are approved, the Sponsor or its affiliates will, in connection with each monthly extension, contribute $88,867 (assuming no redemptions) to the Company as a loan (each loan being referred to herein as a “contribution”) for the Company to deposit the funds into the Trust Account as the Extension Payment in the event the balance of the funds in the Company’s operating account, excluding Trust Account minimum requirement, falls below $100,000, upon five (5) days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadlines. Each extension fee payment will be deposited in the Trust Account within two business days prior to the then existing termination date (or portion thereof), other than the first extension fee payment which will be made one day after the day of the approval of the trust amendment proposal. The contribution(s) will bear no interest and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon consummation of an initial business combination. The loans will be forgiven by the Sponsor or its affiliate if the Company is unable to consummate an initial business combination except to the extent of any funds held outside of the Trust Account. Each of the Charter Amendment, Trust Amendment, proposal for the election of directors and the Adjournment Proposal are more fully described in the accompanying Proxy Statement.

 

As of August [●], 2022, there was approximately $[●] million in the Trust Account. If the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are approved and the Company extends the Combination Period to September 23, 2023, with a one (1) month extension each time starting on September 23, 2022, the redemption price per share applicable to all shareholders other than the Anchor Shareholders at the meeting for our initial business combination or the Company’s subsequent liquidation will be approximately $[●] per share (assuming three (1) one-month extensions, without taking into account any interest), in comparison to the current redemption price of approximately $[●] per share (assuming one (1) three-month extension).

 

2
 

 

If the Charter Amendment Proposal and Trust Amendment Proposal are not approved, we retain the right to extend the Combination Period by two (2) times for an additional three (3) months each time from September 23, 2022, to March 23, 2023, by depositing $575,000, or $0.10 for each Public Share, to the Trust Account.

 

If the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by March 23, 2023 (assuming two three-month extensions), we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public shareholders and our warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares will expire worthless.

 

Voting Rights and Revocation of Proxies

 

The record date with respect to this solicitation is the close of business on August 17, 2022 (the “Record Date”) and only shareholders of record at that time will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment or adjournments thereof.

 

The Company’s ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) represented by all validly executed proxies received in time to be taken to the meeting and not previously revoked will be voted at the meeting. This proxy may be revoked by the shareholder at any time prior to its being voted by filing with the Secretary of the Company either a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. We intend to release this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card to our shareholders on or about August , 2022.

 

Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal

 

Holders of Ordinary Shares do not have appraisal rights under the laws of British Virgin Islands or under the governing documents of the Company in connection with this solicitation.

 

Outstanding Shares and Quorum

 

The number of outstanding Ordinary Shares entitled to vote at the meeting is 7,477,000. Each Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote. The presence in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting of the holders of 3,738,501 shares, or a majority of the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, will constitute a quorum. There is no cumulative voting. Shares that abstain or for which the authority to vote is withheld on certain matters (so-called “broker non-votes”) will be treated as present for quorum purposes on all matters.

 

Broker Non-Votes

 

Holders of Ordinary Shares that are held in street name must instruct their bank or brokerage firm that holds their shares how to vote their shares. If a shareholder does not give instructions to his or her bank or brokerage firm, it will nevertheless be entitled to vote the shares with respect to “routine” items, but it will not be permitted to vote the shares with respect to “non-routine” items. In the case of a non-routine item, such shares will be considered “broker non-votes” on that proposal. The Company believes that all of the proposals presented to the shareholders at this Annual Meeting will be considered “non-routine” items. Accordingly, banks or brokerages cannot use discretionary authority to vote shares on Proposals 1, 2, 3 or 4 if they have not received instructions from their clients. Please submit your vote instruction form so your vote is counted.

Required Votes for Each Proposal to Pass

 

Assuming the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting:

 

Proposal

  Vote Required  

Broker

Discretionary Vote Allowed

         
Charter Amendment  Majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote   No
         
Trust Amendment   65% of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote   No
         
Election of Directors   Majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote   No
         
Adjournment   Majority of the outstanding shares represented by virtual attendance or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Annual Meeting   No

 

Abstentions will not count as a vote against each of the proposals.

 

Voting Procedures

 

Each Ordinary Share that you own in your name entitles you to one vote on each of the proposals for the Annual Meeting. Your proxy card shows the number of Ordinary Shares that you own.

 

  You can vote your Ordinary Shares in advance of the Annual Meeting by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the Annual Meeting. If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your Ordinary Shares will be voted as recommended by our board of directors. Our board of directors recommends voting “FOR” each of the Charter Amendment, the Trust Amendment Proposal, each of the nominees named in this Proxy Statement, and the Adjournment Proposal.
     
  You can attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person even if you have previously voted by submitting a proxy. You will be given a ballot when you arrive. However, if your Ordinary Shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you must get a proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way we can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.

 

Solicitation of Proxies

 

The solicitation of proxies is made by the Company. The expenses of solicitation of proxies will be paid by the Company. We may solicit proxies by mail, and the officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone and will receive no extra compensation from such activities. The Company will reimburse brokerage houses and other nominees for their expenses incurred in sending proxies and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of shares held by them.

Delivery of Proxy Materials to Households

 

Only one copy of the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Proxy Statement will be delivered to an address where two or more shareholders reside with the same last name or whom otherwise reasonably appear to be members of the same family based on the shareholders’ prior express or implied consent.

 

We will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Proxy Statement. If you share an address with at least one other shareholder, currently receive one copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Proxy Statement at your residence, and would like to receive a separate copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Proxy Statement for future shareholder meetings of the Company, please specify such request in writing and send such written request to HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth Lane, #03-20, Singapore, 149544; Attention: Chief Executive Officer, or call the Company promptly at +65 6659 1335.

 

If you share an address with at least one other shareholder and currently receive multiple copies of Annual Report on Form 10-K and Proxy Statement, and you would like to receive a single copy of Annual Report on Form 10-K and Proxy Statement, please specify such request in writing and send such written request to HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth Lane, #03-20, Singapore, 149544; Attention: Chief Executive Officer.

 

Redemption Rights

 

Pursuant to our currently existing charter, any holders of our public shares may demand that such shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account, less taxes payable, calculated as of two business days prior to the Annual Meeting. Regardless whether you vote for or against the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment, if your request is properly made and the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are approved, these shares will cease to be outstanding and will represent only the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account which holds the proceeds of our IPO (calculated as of two business days prior to the Annual Meeting). For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the trust account of approximately $[*] million on August , 2022, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $[*].

 

In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must submit a request in writing prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on September [●], 2022 (two business days before the Annual Meeting) that we redeem your Public Shares for cash to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, at the following address:

 

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC

6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219

Attn: Felix Orihuela

Senior Vice President SPAC Services Administration

Relationship Management

E-mail: [email protected]

And

 

  deliver your public shares either physically or electronically through DTC to our transfer agent at least two business days before the Annual Meeting. Shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is our understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, we do not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Shareholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their broker, bank or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically. If you do not submit a written request and deliver your public shares as described above, your shares will not be redeemed.

 

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests (and submitting shares to the transfer agent) and thereafter, with our consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment. If you delivered your shares for redemption to our transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your redemption rights, you may request that our transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the phone number or address listed above.

 

Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of our Ordinary Shares, as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their Ordinary Shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your Ordinary Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in our Ordinary Shares when you wish to sell your shares.

 

5
 

 

If you exercise your redemption rights, your Ordinary Shares will cease to be outstanding immediately prior to the Annual Meeting (assuming the Charter Amendment and Trust Amendment are approved) and will only represent the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account. You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of the Company, if any. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly and timely request redemption.

 

If the Charter Amendment Proposal and Trust Amendment Proposal are not approved, we retain the right to extend the Combination Period by two (2) times for an additional three (3) months each time from September 23, 2022, to March 23, 2023, by depositing $575,000, or $0.10 for each public share, to the Trust Account.

 

If the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by March 23, 2023 (assuming two three-month extensions), we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public shareholders and our warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares will expire worthless.

 

Holders of outstanding units must separate the underlying public shares, public rights and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares.

 

If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC with written instructions to separate such units into public shares, public rights and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the public share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights with respect to the public shares upon the separation of the public shares from the units.

 

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s deposit withdrawal at custodian (DWAC) system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of public shares, public rights and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights with respect to the public shares upon the separation of the public shares from the units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation.

PROPOSAL 1: THE CHARTER AMENDMENT

 

The proposed Charter Amendment would amend our existing charter to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from September 23, 2022 to September 23, 2022 (the termination date as so extended, the “Extended Termination Date”). Initially, the Company had until September 23, 2022 to complete its initial business combination, before giving effect to two three-month extensions (the “Current Termination Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the proposed Charter Amendment, in order to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination, our insiders or their affiliates or designees must deposit $0.0155 for each public ordinary share that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $88,867 if there are no redemptions) into the trust account for each one (1) month extension. The initial extension payment must be made prior to the Current Termination Date, while the second extension payment (and all those that follow) must be deposited into the trust account no fewer than two business days prior to the then existing termination date. The insiders will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Such notes would be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination. We intend to issue a press release announcing the deposit of funds promptly after such funds are deposited into the trust account. The full proposed third amended and restated memorandum and articles of association is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A. All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. However, the Company will not proceed with the Charter Amendment if the redemption of public shares in connection therewith would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001, and in such event, we will not affect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting.

 

Reasons for the Proposed Charter Amendment

 

The Company is proposing to amend its charter to allow the Company to extend its life twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from September 23, 2022 to September 23, 2023.

 

The Company’s IPO prospectus provides that the Company initially had until March 23, 2023 (after two three-month extensions) to complete its initial business combination. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to allow the Company to extend the time to complete a business combination twelve (12) times for an additional three (3) months each time and provide that the date for cessation of operations of the Company if the Company has not completed a business combination would similarly be extended to the Extended Termination Date.

 

Our sponsor, Mr. Hooy Kok Wai (the “Sponsor”), wants to pay an Extension Amount that is less than the $0.10 for each three-month extension provided by the current Charter and Trust Agreement, on a month-to-month and as-needed basis only. Under the current Charter and Trust Agreement, each three month extension payment would be $575,000, which if paid monthly instead of every three months would be $191,667. The amount now proposed to be paid for each monthly extension is $88,867 per month (assuming no redemptions), which would translate to $266,600 for each three month period. However, this would be contrary to the interests of our remaining public shareholders, who will have less funds in the Trust Account than if the extension provisions were not amended.

 

In order to remedy such a situation, the Company has reached an agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”) with the Sponsor, who is our largest public shareholder, and with certain other holders of Public Shares (the “Anchor Shareholders”) and who, as of August 17, 2022, together own 3,084,000 Public Shares, which represent 53.63% of all outstanding Ordinary Shares that are owned by our public shareholders. Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Anchor Shareholders have agreed to waive their pro rata share of all Extension Payments made into the Trust Account after the date hereof. As a result, each monthly Extension Payment of $88,867 (assuming no redemptions) that is paid into the trust account would be segregated so that only the Company’s public shareholders who have not redeemed their Shares, excluding the Anchor Shareholders, would receive their pro rata share of each such monthly extension payment (in addition to their pro rata share of amounts then in the trust account) upon redemption or upon the liquidation of the Company as provided in our amended charter after giving effect to the Charter Amendment. The Waiver Agreement also provides that the Anchor Shareholders will agree not to sell or otherwise transfer any of their Shares (subject to customary exceptions for transfers to certain family members and other affiliates) other than in connection with a redemption of their Shares or in the event that the Company is forced to dissolve or liquidate. The terms of the Waiver Agreement, when taken together with the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment, would place all of our shareholders (other than the Anchor Shareholders) in the same financial position that they would have been if each monthly extension payment was equal to one-third of the payment for each three-month extension provided for under our current charter.

After consultation with the Sponsor, Company management has reasons to believe that, if the Charter Amendment and Trust Amendment proposals are approved, the Sponsor or its affiliates will, in connection with each monthly extension, contribute $88,867 (assuming no redemptions) to the Company as a loan (each loan being referred to herein as a “contribution”) for the Company to deposit the funds into the Trust Account as the Extension Payment in the event the funds in the Company’s operating account, excluding Trust Account minimum requirement, falls below $100,000, upon five (5) days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadlines. Each extension fee payment will be deposited in the Trust Account within two business days prior to the beginning of the additional extension period (or portion thereof), other than the first extension fee payment which will be made one day after the day of the approval of the trust amendment proposal. The contribution(s) will bear no interest and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon consummation of an initial business combination. The loans will be forgiven by the Sponsor or its affiliate if the Company is unable to consummate an initial business combination except to the extent of any funds held outside of the Trust Account. Each of the Charter Amendment, Trust Amendment, proposal for the election of directors and the Adjournment Proposal are more fully described in the accompanying Proxy Statement.

 

If the Charter Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination or our trust account has not received $575,000 extension fee payment by the Current Termination Date, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under the laws of British Virgin Islands to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants or rights which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.

 

If the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved, we retain the right to extend the Combination Period by two (2) times for an additional three (3) months each time from September 23, 2022, to March 23, 2023, by depositing $575,000, or $0.10 for each public share, to the Trust Account.

  

If the Charter Amendment is not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by March 23, 2023 (assuming two three-month extensions), we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our trust account by returning the then remaining funds in such account to the public shareholders and our warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares will expire worthless.

 

We may not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company since such initial business combination may be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited.

 

Our sponsor is Hooy Kok Wai, a non-U.S. person. We are therefore likely considered a “foreign person” under the regulations administered by CFIUS and will continue to be considered as such in the future for so long as our sponsor has the ability to exercise control over us for purposes of CFIUS’s regulations. As such, an initial business combination with a U.S. business may be subject to CFIUS review, the scope of which was expanded by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (“FIRRMA”), to include certain non-passive, non-controlling investments in sensitive U.S. businesses and certain acquisitions of real estate even with no underlying U.S. business. FIRRMA, and subsequent implementing regulations that are now in force, also subjects certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If our potential initial business combination with a U.S. business falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that we will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, which may limit the attractiveness of or prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete an initial business combination may be limited and we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues.

 

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and we have limited time to complete our initial business combination. If we cannot complete our initial business combination by September 23, 2022 (or March 23, 2023 if extended two times by our sponsor) because the review process drags on beyond such timeframe or because our initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, we may be required to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public shareholders may only receive $10.30 per share, and our warrants and rights will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose the investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

 

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

 

Approval of the Charter Amendment to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association requires the affirmative vote of at least 50% of the outstanding shares present. If your shares are held in street name, your broker, bank, custodian, or other nominee holder cannot vote your shares on this proposal, unless you direct the holder how to vote, by marking your proxy card. Broker non-votes, abstentions or the failure to vote on the Charter Amendment will not count as a vote cast at the Annual Meeting and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on any proposal.

 

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the Charter Amendment.

PROPOSAL 2: THE TRUST AMENDMENT

 

The proposed Trust Amendment would amend our existing Trust Agreement, allowing the Company to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from September 23, 2022 to September 23, 2023 (the “Trust Amendment”) by depositing into the Trust Account the sum of $0.0155 for each public Ordinary Share that has not been redeemed (or an aggregate of $88,867 if there are no redemptions) for each one-month extension and make other conforming amendments. A copy of the proposed Trust Amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B. All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. The initial extension payment must be made prior to the Current Termination Date, while the second extension payment must be deposited into the trust account no fewer than five calendar days prior to the then existing termination date. The insiders will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Such notes would be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination. The complete text of the proposed amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B. All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. However, the Company will not proceed with the Trust Amendment if the redemption of public shares in connection therewith would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001, and in such event, we will not affect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting.

 

Reasons for the Proposed Trust Amendment

 

The Company is proposing to amend its Trust Agreement allow the Company to extend its life twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from September 23, 2022 to September 23, 2023.

 

The Trust Amendment is essential to allow the Company an option to further extend the time to consummate a business combination. Approval of the Trust Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the extension.

 

Our sponsor, Mr. Hooy Kok Wai (the “Sponsor”), wants to pay an Extension Amount that is less than the $0.10 for each three-month extension provided by the current Charter and Trust Agreement, on a month-to-month and as-needed basis only. Under the current Charter and Trust Agreement, each three month extension payment would be $575,000, which if paid monthly instead of every three months would be $191,667. The amount now proposed to be paid for each monthly extension is $88.867 per month, which would translate to $266,600 for each three month period. However, this would be contrary to the interests of our remaining public shareholders, who will have less funds in the Trust Account than if the extension provisions were not amended.

 

In order to remedy such a situation, the Company has reached an agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”) with the Sponsor, who is our largest public shareholder, and with certain other holders of Public Shares (the “Anchor Shareholders”) and who, as of August 17, 2022, together own 3,084,000 Public Shares, which represent 53.63% of all outstanding Ordinary Shares that are owned by our public shareholders. Pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the Anchor Shareholders have agreed to waive their pro rata share of all Extension Payments made into the Trust Account after the date hereof. As a result, each monthly Extension Payment of $88,867 (assuming no redemptions) that is paid into the trust account would be segregated so that only the Company’s public shareholders who have not redeemed their Shares, excluding the Anchor Shareholders, would receive their pro rata share of each such monthly extension payment (in addition to their pro rata share of amounts then in the trust account) upon redemption or upon the liquidation of the Company as provided in our amended charter after giving effect to the Charter Amendment. The Waiver Agreement also provides that the Anchor Shareholders will agree not to sell or otherwise transfer any of their Shares (subject to customary exceptions for transfers to certain family members and other affiliates) other than in connection with a redemption of their Shares or in the event that the Company is forced to dissolve or liquidate. The terms of the Waiver Agreement, when taken together with the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment, would place all of our shareholders (other than the Anchor Shareholders) in the same financial position that they would have been if each monthly extension payment was equal to one-third of the payment for each three-month extension provided for under our current charter.

Each extension fee payment will be deposited in the Trust Account within two business days prior to the then existing termination date (or portion thereof), other than the first extension fee payment which will be made one day after the day of the approval of the trust amendment proposal.

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

 

The affirmative vote of holders of at least 65% of the outstanding shares present is required to approve the Trust Amendment. Broker non-votes, abstentions or the failure to vote on the Trust Amendment will not count as a vote cast at the Annual Meeting and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on any proposal.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS, PROMOTERS AND CERTAIN CONTROL

 

PERSONS

 

In July 2020, 10,000 insider shares were issued to our initial subscriber of the Company. In November 2020, the initial subscriber transferred the insider shares that it holds to HHG Investment Fund SPC – HHG Capital Fund SP (“HHG Fund”) , and the Company further issued 1,240,000 insider shares to HHG Fund and Forever Happiness Limited (“FHL”). In February 2021, the Company further allotted 187,500 insider shares to HHG Fund, resulting in an aggregate of 1,437,500 ordinary shares outstanding, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.017 per share. In May 2021, HHG, FHL and all other shareholders transferred an aggregate of 1,437,500 insider shares to Expert Capital Investments Limited, who in turn transferred all 1,437,500 insider shares to our sponsor in June 2021. At the end of June 2021, our sponsor transferred an aggregate of 255,000 ordinary shares to the directors.

 

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, our Sponsor purchased from us an aggregate of 255,000 private units at $10.00 per private unit (for a total purchase price of $2,550,000), on a private placement basis. All of the proceeds we receive from these purchases were placed in the trust account.

 

In order to meet our working capital needs until completion of an initial business combination, our initial shareholders, officers and directors and their respective affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $500,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of our business combination into private units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for example, would result in the holders being issued units to acquire 50,000 ordinary shares, warrants to purchase 37,500 ordinary shares and rights to receive 5,000 ordinary shares if $500,000 of notes were so converted). Our shareholders have approved the issuance of the units and underlying securities upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert them at the time of the consummation of our initial business combination. If we do not complete a business combination, the loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the trust account, and only to the extent available.

 

The holders of our insider shares issued and outstanding on the date of this proxy, as well as the holders of the private units (and all underlying securities), are entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed at the IPO. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that we register such securities. The holders of the majority of the insider shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these ordinary shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the private units or securities issued in payment of working capital loans can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of a business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

As of June 30, 2021, HHG Fund had loaned us an aggregate of $100,000 to be used to pay formation expenses and a portion of the expenses of this offering. The loan has been repaid.

 

Ms. Yeung Po Yi, has agreed that, commencing on September 20, 2021 through the earlier of our consummation of our initial business combination or our liquidation, it will make available to us certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative support, as we may require from time to time. We have agreed to pay $10,000 per month for these services. However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, we may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by our audit committee that we lack sufficient funds held outside the trust to pay actual or anticipated expenses in connection with our initial business combination. Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of our initial business combination. Ms. Yeung Po Yi is a staff member of the sponsor. We believe that the fee charged by Ms. Yeung Po Yi is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated person.

 

13
 

 

Other than the fees described above, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees or other similar compensation, will be paid to any of our initial shareholders, officers or directors who owned our ordinary shares prior to this offering, or to any of their respective affiliates, prior to or with respect to the business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

 

We will reimburse our officers and directors for any reasonable out-of-pocket business expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf such as identifying and investigating possible target businesses and business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the trust account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination. Our audit committee will review and approve all reimbursements and payments made to any initial shareholder or member of our management team, or our or their respective affiliates, and any reimbursements and payments made to members of our audit committee will be reviewed and approved by our board of directors, with any interested director abstaining from such review and approval.

 

All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions, including the payment of any compensation, will require prior approval by a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors (to the extent we have any) or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our disinterested “independent” directors (or, if there are no “independent” directors, our disinterested directors) determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

 

Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions

 

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our Ordinary Shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

 

We also require each of our directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

 

Our audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors, or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested “independent” directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

 

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

 

To further minimize potential conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate a business combination with an entity which is affiliated with any of our initial shareholders unless we obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated shareholders from a financial point of view. Furthermore, in no event will any of our existing officers, directors or initial shareholders, or any entity with which they are affiliated, be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and ten percent shareholders are required by regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. We believe that, during the year ended December 31, 2021, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.

 

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

The Company currently has three (3) independent directors: Siang Yong Chew, Weiyi Di and Tzu Fei (Philip) Ting. Each is independent under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

The Company’s management is responsible for identifying, assessing and managing the material risks facing the business. The Board and, in particular, the Audit Committee, is responsible for overseeing the Company’s processes for assessing and managing risk. Each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with input as appropriate from other appropriate management members, report and provide relevant information directly to either the Board and/or the Audit Committee on various types of identified material financial, reputational, legal, operational, environmental and business risks to which the Company is or may be subject, as well as mitigation strategies for certain salient risks. In accordance with NASDAQ Capital Market requirements and as set forth in its charter, the Audit Committee periodically reviews and discusses the Company’s business and financial risk management and risk assessment policies and procedures with senior management, the Company’s independent auditor. The Audit Committee reports its risk assessment function to the Board. The roles of the Board and the Audit Committee in the risk oversight process have not affected the Board leadership structure.

 

The Board of Directors held one meeting during the year ended December 31, 2021, and also conducted business by written consent. The Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee each held one (1) meeting during the year ended December 31, 2021. During fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, no director attended fewer than 75% of any meetings of the Board committees of which the director was a member.

 

Audit Committee

 

We established an Audit Committee of the board of directors at the closing of our IPO, which currently consists of Siang Yong Chew, Weiyi Di and Tzu Fei (Philip) Ting, each of whom is an independent director. Fei (Philip) Ting serves as chairman of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee’s duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

 

  reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;
     
  discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;
     
  discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;
     
  monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;

 

15
 

 

  verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;
     
  reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;
     
  inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
     
  pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;
     
  appointing or replacing the independent auditor;
     
  determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;
     
  establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and
     
  approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.

 

Financial Expert on Audit Committee

 

The Audit Committee will at all times be composed exclusively of “independent directors” who are “financially literate” as defined under the Nasdaq listing standards. The Nasdaq listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

 

In addition, we must certify to Nasdaq that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s financial sophistication. The board of directors has determined that Eric Lam qualifies as an “Audit Committee financial expert,” as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Compensation Committee

 

We established a Compensation Committee of the board of directors at the closing of our IPO, which currently consists of Siang Yong Chew, Weiyi Di and Tzu Fei (Philip) Ting, each of whom is an independent director. Weiyi Di serves as chairman of the Compensation Committee. We adopted a Compensation Committee charter, which details the principal functions of the Compensation Committee, including:

 

  reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our President and Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our President and Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our President and Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation;
     
  reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other executive officers;
     
  reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;
     
  implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
     
  assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

 

16
 

 

  approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers and employees;
     
  producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and
     
  reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

 

The charter also provides that the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the Compensation Committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by NASDAQ and the SEC.

 

Nominating Committee

 

We established a Nominating Committee of the board of directors at the closing of our initial public offering, which currently consists of Siang Yong Chew, Weiyi Di and Tzu Fei (Philip) Ting, each of whom is an independent director. Siang Yong Chew serves as chairman of the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The Nominating Committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others. The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that the persons to be nominated:

 

  should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;
     
  should possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the board of directors and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and
     
  should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the shareholders.

 

Shareholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating Committee to become nominees for election to the Board at our next Annual Meeting of Shareholders may do so by submitting a written recommendation to the Nominating Committee, HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth Lane, #03-20, Singapore, 149544; Attention: Chief Executive Officer, in accordance with the procedures set forth below in this proxy statement under the heading “Shareholder Proposals.” For nominees for election to the Board proposed by shareholders to be considered, the following information concerning each nominee must be timely submitted in accordance with the required procedures:

 

  The candidate’s name, age, business address, residence address, principal occupation or employment, the class and number of shares of our capital stock the candidate beneficially owns, a brief description of any direct or indirect relationships with us, and the other information that would be required in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of the candidate as a director;
     
  A signed consent of the nominee to being named as a nominee, to cooperate with reasonable background checks and personal interviews and to serve as a director, if elected; and
     
  As to the shareholder proposing such nominee, that shareholder’s name and address, the class and number of shares of our capital stock the shareholder beneficially owns, a description of all arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and the candidate and any other person or persons (including their names) pursuant to which the recommendation is being made, a list of all other companies to which the shareholder has recommended the candidate for election as a director in that fiscal year, and a representation that the shareholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person named in its notice.

Shareholders who wish to communicate with the Board or with specified members of the Board should do so by sending any communication to HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth Lane, #03-20, Singapore, 149544; Attention: Chief Executive Officer.

 

Any such communication should state the number of shares beneficially owned by the shareholder making the communication. Our Secretary will forward such communication to the full Board or to any individual member or members of the Board to whom the communication is directed, unless the communication is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly inappropriate, in which case the Secretary has the authority to discard the communication or take appropriate legal action regarding the communication.

 

CODE OF ETHICS

 

We adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.

 

EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

 

None of our directors or executive officers has received any compensation from us for services rendered to us. With respect to our executive officers:

 

  we do not maintain, sponsor or contribute to, and have not had and do not have any obligation to contribute to, any benefit plans, including any qualified or nonqualified defined benefit plans, nonqualified defined contribution plans or other deferred compensation plans,
     
  we have not entered into any employment, service, retention or other agreements or entered into any agreements to provide benefits upon termination of employment or other service with us, and
     
  we have not granted any equity-based awards.

 

Other than the monthly administration fee payable to Ms. Yeung Po Yi , no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees and other similar fees, will be paid to our insiders or any of the members of our current management team, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the consummation of a business combination. However, such individuals will receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with activities on our behalf. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us, except that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the trust account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate a business combination.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

 

OF

 

HHG capital Corporation

 

A COMPANY LIMITED BY SHARES

 

(amended and restated on [ ] September 2022)

 

1REGISTERED SHARES
  
1.1Every Member is entitled to a certificate signed by a Director of the Company or under the Seal specifying the number of Shares held by him and the signature of the Director and the Seal may be facsimiles.
  
1.2Any Member receiving a certificate shall indemnify and hold the Company and its Directors and officers harmless from any loss or liability which it or they may incur by reason of any wrongful or fraudulent use or representation made by any person by virtue of the possession thereof. If a certificate for Shares is worn out or lost it may be renewed on production of the worn out certificate or on satisfactory proof of its loss together with such indemnity as may be required by a Resolution of Directors.
  
1.3If several Eligible Persons are registered as joint holders of any Shares, any one of such Eligible Persons may give an effectual receipt for any Distribution.
  
1.4Nothing in these Articles shall require title to any Shares or other Securities to be evidenced by a certificate if the Act and the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange permit otherwise.
  
1.5Subject to the Act and the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Board of Directors without further consultation with the holders of any Shares or Securities may resolve that any class or series of Shares or other Securities in issue or to be issued from time to time may be issued, registered or converted to uncertificated form and the practices instituted by the operator of the relevant system. No provision of these Articles will apply to any uncertificated shares or Securities to the extent that they are inconsistent with the holding of such shares or securities in uncertificated form or the transfer of title to any such shares or securities by means of a relevant system.
  
1.6Conversion of Shares held in certificated form into Shares held in uncertificated form, and vice versa, may be made in such manner as the Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, may think fit (subject always to the requirements of the relevant system concerned). The Company or any duly authorised transfer agent shall enter on the register of members how many Shares are held by each member in uncertificated form and certificated form and shall maintain the register of members in each case as is required by the relevant system concerned. Notwithstanding any provision of these Articles, a class or series of Shares shall not be treated as two classes by virtue only of that class or series comprising both certificated shares and uncertificated shares or as a result of any provision of these Articles which applies only in respect of certificated shares or uncertificated shares.

 

30
 

 

1.7Nothing contained in Regulation 1.5 and 1.6 is meant to prohibit the Shares from being able to trade electronically. For the avoidance of doubt, Shares shall only be traded and transferred electronically upon consummation of the IPO.
  
2SHARES
  
2.1Subject to the provisions of these Articles and, where applicable, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the unissued Shares of the Company shall be at the disposal of the Directors and Shares and other Securities may be issued and option to acquire Shares or other Securities may be granted at such times, to such Eligible Persons, for such consideration and on such terms as the Directors may by Resolution of Directors determine.
  
2.2Without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing Shares, the Directors may be issued Shares with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting or otherwise as the Directors may from time to time determine subject to Regulation 23.7.
  
2.3Section 46 of the Act does not apply to the Company.
  
2.4A Share may be issued for consideration in any form, including money, a promissory note, real property, personal property (including goodwill and know-how) or a contract for future services.
  
2.5No Shares may be issued for a consideration other than money, unless a Resolution of Directors has been passed stating:

 

(a)the amount to be credited for the issue of the Shares; and
   
(b)that, in their opinion, the present cash value of the non-money consideration for the issue is not less than the amount to be credited for the issue of the Shares.

 

2.6The Company shall keep a register (the share register) containing:

 

(a)the names and addresses of the persons who hold Shares;
   
(b)the number of each class and series of Shares held by each Member;
   
(c)the date on which the name of each Member was entered in the share register; and
   
(d)the date on which any Eligible Person ceased to be a Member.

 

2.7The share register may be in any such form as the Directors may approve, but if it is in magnetic, electronic or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its contents. Until the Directors otherwise determine, the magnetic, electronic or other data storage form shall be the original share register.
  
2.8A Share is deemed to be issued when the name of the Member is entered in the share register.

 

31
 

 

2.9Subject to the provisions of the Act and the Business Combination Articles, Shares may be issued on the terms that they are redeemable, or at the option of the Company be liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Directors before or at the time of the issue of such Shares may determine. The Directors may issue options, warrants, rights or convertible securities or securities or a similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of Shares or Securities on such terms as the Directors may from time to time determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Directors may also issue options, warrants, rights to acquire or receive shares or convertible securities in connection with the Company’s IPO.
  
3FORFEITURE
  
3.1Shares that are not fully paid on issue, or are issued with the terms that they are subject to forfeiture as the Directors determine upon allotment, are subject to the forfeiture provisions set forth in this Regulation and for this purpose Shares issued for a promissory note or a contract for future services are deemed to be not fully paid.
  
3.2A written notice of call specifying the date for payment to be made shall be served on the Member who defaults in making payment in respect of the Shares.
  
3.3The written notice of call referred to in Regulation 3.2 shall name a further date not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of service of the notice on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made and shall contain a statement that in the event of non-payment at or before the time named in the notice the Shares, or any of them, in respect of which payment is not made will be liable to be forfeited.
  
3.4Where a written notice of call has been issued pursuant to Regulation 3.2 and the requirements of the notice have not been complied with, the Directors may, at any time before tender of payment, forfeit and cancel the Shares to which the notice relates.
  
3.5The Company is under no obligation to refund any moneys to the Member whose Shares have been cancelled pursuant to Regulation 3.4 and that Member shall be discharged from any further obligation to the Company.
  
4TRANSFER OF SHARES
  
4.1Subject to the Memorandum, certificated shares may be transferred by a written instrument of transfer signed by the transferor and containing the name and address of the transferee, which shall be sent to the Company for registration. A member shall be entitled to transfer uncertificated shares by means of a relevant system and the operator of the relevant system shall act as agent of the Members for the purposes of the transfer of such uncertificated shares.
  
4.2The transfer of a Share is effective when the name of the transferee is entered on the share register.
  
4.3If the Directors of the Company are satisfied that an instrument of transfer relating to Shares has been signed but that the instrument has been lost or destroyed, they may resolve by Resolution of Directors:

5DISTRIBUTIONS
  
5.1Subject to the Business Combination Articles, the Directors of the Company may, by Resolution of Directors, authorise a distribution at a time and of an amount they think fit if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company’s assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.
  
5.2Dividends may be paid in money, shares, or other property.
  
5.3The Company may, by Resolution of Directors, from time to time pay to the Members such interim dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company, provided always that they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company’s assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.
  
5.4Notice in writing of any dividend that may have been declared shall be given to each Member in accordance with Regulation 21 and all dividends unclaimed for three years after such notice has been given to a Member may be forfeited by Resolution of Directors for the benefit of the Company.

6.2The purchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Company of its own Shares is deemed not to be a distribution where:

6.5All rights and obligations attaching to a Treasury Share are suspended and shall not be exercised by the Company while it holds the Share as a Treasury Share.
  
6.6Treasury Shares may be disposed of by the Company on such terms and conditions (not otherwise inconsistent with the Memorandum and Articles) as the Company may by Resolution of Directors determine.
  
6.7Where Shares are held by another body corporate of which the Company holds, directly or indirectly, shares having more than 50 per cent of the votes in the election of Directors of the other body corporate, all rights and obligations attaching to the Shares held by the other body corporate are suspended and shall not be exercised by the other body corporate.

8.10The following applies where Shares are jointly owned:

 

(a)if two or more persons hold Shares jointly each of them may be present in person or by proxy at a meeting of Members and may speak as a Member;
   
(b)if only one of the joint owners is present in person or by proxy he may vote on behalf of all joint owners; and

8.11A Member shall be deemed to be present at a meeting of Members if he participates by telephone or other electronic means and all Members participating in the meeting are able to hear each other.
  
8.12A meeting of Members is duly constituted if, at the commencement of the meeting, there are present in person or by proxy not less than 50 per cent of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote on Resolutions of Members to be considered at the meeting. If the Company has two or more classes of shares, a meeting may be quorate for some purposes and not for others. A quorum may comprise a single Member or proxy and then such person may pass a Resolution of Members and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person holds a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid Resolution of Members.

 

36
 

 

8.13If within two hours from the time appointed for the meeting of Members, a quorum is not present, the meeting, at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall either be dissolved or stand adjourned to a business day in the jurisdiction in which the meeting was to have been held at the same time and place, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote or each class or series of Shares entitled to vote, as applicable, on the matters to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting shall either be dissolved or stand further adjourned at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
  
8.14At every meeting of Members, the Chairman of the Board shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present at the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be the chairman. If the Members are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the person representing the greatest number of voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting shall preside as chairman failing which the oldest individual Member or representative of a Member present shall take the chair.
  
8.15The person appointed as chairman of the meeting pursuant to Regulation 8.14 may adjourn any meeting from time to time, and from place to place. For the avoidance of doubt, a meeting can be adjourned for as many times as may be determined to be necessary by the chairman and a meeting may remain open indefinitely for as long a period as may be determined by the chairman.
  
8.16Voting at any meeting of the Members is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded by the chairman.

Any Member present in person or by proxy who disputes the announcement by the chairman of the result of any vote may immediately following such announcement demand that a poll be taken and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken. If a poll is taken at any meeting, the result shall be announced to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting.
  
8.17Subject to the specific provisions contained in this Regulation for the appointment of representatives of Members other than individuals the right of any individual to speak for or represent a Member shall be determined by the law of the jurisdiction where, and by the documents by which, the Member is constituted or derives its existence. In case of doubt, the Directors may in good faith seek legal advice and unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise rule, the Directors may rely and act upon such advice without incurring any liability to any Member or the Company.
  
8.18Any Member other than an individual may by resolution of its Directors or other governing body authorise such individual as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of Members or of any class of Members, and the individual so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same rights on behalf of the Member which he represents as that Member could exercise if it were an individual.
  
8.19The chairman of any meeting at which a vote is cast by proxy or on behalf of any Member other than an individual may at the meeting but not thereafter call for a notarially certified copy of such proxy or authority which shall be produced within 7 days of being so requested or the votes cast by such proxy or on behalf of such Member shall be disregarded.

 

37
 

 

8.20Directors of the Company may attend and speak at any meeting of Members and at any separate meeting of the holders of any class or series of Shares.
  
8.21Until the consummation of the Company’s IPO, any action that may be taken by the Members at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Members consented to in writing, without the need for any prior notice. If any Resolution of Members is adopted otherwise than by the unanimous written consent of all Members, a copy of such resolution shall forthwith be sent to all Members not consenting to such resolution. The consent may be in the form of counterparts, each counterpart being signed by one or more Members. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the earliest date upon which Eligible Persons holding a sufficient number of votes of Shares to constitute a Resolution of Members have consented to the resolution by signed counterparts. Following the Company’s IPO, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Members of the Company must be effected by a meeting of the Company, such meeting to be duly convened and held in accordance with these Articles.

(a)(following the consummation of the initial Business Combination but not at any time before) a Resolution of Members passed at a meeting of Members called for the purposes of removing the Director or for purposes including the removal of the Director; or
   
(b)a Resolution of Directors passed at a meeting of Directors.

 

9.6A Director may resign his office by giving written notice of his resignation to the Company and the resignation has effect from the date the notice is received by the Company at the office of its registered agent or from such later date as may be specified in the notice. A Director shall resign forthwith as a Director if he is, or becomes, disqualified from acting as a Director under the Act.
  
9.7The Directors may at any time appoint any person to be a Director either to fill a vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors. Where the Directors appoint a person as Director to fill a vacancy, the term shall not exceed the term that remained when the person who has ceased to be a Director ceased to hold office.
  
9.8A vacancy in relation to Directors occurs if a Director dies or otherwise ceases to hold office prior to the expiration of his term of office.

 

38
 

 

9.9The Company shall keep a register of Directors containing:

 

(a)the names and addresses of the persons who are Directors of the Company;
   
(b)the date on which each person whose name is entered in the register was appointed as a Director of the Company;
   
(c)the date on which each person named as a Director ceased to be a Director of the Company; and
   
(d)such other information as may be prescribed by the Act.

 

9.10The register of Directors may be kept in any such form as the Directors may approve, but if it is in magnetic, electronic or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its contents. Until a Resolution of Directors determining otherwise is passed, the magnetic, electronic or other data storage shall be the original register of Directors.
  
9.11The Directors, or if the Shares (or depository receipts therefore) are listed or quoted on a Designated Stock Exchange, and if required by the Designated Stock Exchange, any committee thereof, may, by a Resolution of Directors, fix the emoluments of Directors with respect to services to be rendered in any capacity to the Company.
  
9.12A Director is not required to hold a Share as a qualification to office.
  
9.13Prior to the consummation of any transaction with:

 

(a)any affiliate of the Company;
   
(b)any Member owning an interest in the voting power of the Company that gives such Member a significant influence over the Company;
   
(c)any Director or executive officer of the Company and any relative of such Director or executive officer; and
(d)any person in which a substantial interest in the voting power of the Company is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person referred to in Regulations 9.13(b) and (c) or over which such a person is able to exercise significant influence,

 

such transaction must be approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors who do not have an interest in the transaction, such directors having been provided with access (at the Company’s expense) to the Company’s attorney or independent legal counsel, unless the disinterested directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favourable to the Company than those that would be available to the Company with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

 

10POWERS OF DIRECTORS
  
10.1The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by, or under the direction or supervision of, the Directors of the Company. The Directors of the Company have all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, the business and affairs of the Company. The Directors may pay all expenses incurred preliminary to and in connection with the incorporation of the Company and may exercise all such powers of the Company as are not by the Act or by the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members.

 

39
 

 

10.2If the Company is the wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, a Director of the Company may, when exercising powers or performing duties as a Director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company.
  
10.3Each Director shall exercise his powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the Company acting in a manner that contravenes the Memorandum, the Articles or the Act. Each Director, in exercising his powers or performing his duties, shall act honestly and in good faith in what the Director believes to be the best interests of the Company.
  
10.4Any Director which is a body corporate may appoint any individual as its duly authorised representative for the purpose of representing it at meetings of the Directors, with respect to the signing of consents or otherwise.
  
10.5The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body.
  
10.6Subject to Regulation 23.7, the Directors may by Resolution of Directors exercise all the powers of the Company to incur indebtedness, liabilities or obligations and to secure indebtedness, liabilities or obligations whether of the Company or of any third party, provided always that if the same occurs prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company must first obtain from the lender a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account.
  
10.7All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for moneys paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be, in such manner as shall from time to time be determined by Resolution of Directors.
  
10.8Section 175 of the Act shall not apply to the Company.
  
11PROCEEDINGS OF DIRECTORS
  
11.1Any one Director of the Company may call a meeting of the Directors by sending a written notice to each other Director.
  
11.2The Directors of the Company or any committee thereof may meet at such times and in such manner and places within or outside the British Virgin Islands as the notice calling the meeting provides.
  
11.3A Director is deemed to be present at a meeting of Directors if he participates by telephone or other electronic means and all Directors participating in the meeting are able to hear each other.
  
11.4Until the consummation of a Business Combination, a Director may not appoint an alternate. Following the consummation of a Business Combination, a Director may by a written instrument appoint an alternate who need not be a Director, any such alternate shall be entitled to attend meetings in the absence of the Director who appointed him and to vote or consent in place of the Director until the appointment lapses or is terminated.

 

40
 

 

11.5A Director shall be given not less than three days’ notice of meetings of Directors, but a meeting of Directors held without three days’ notice having been given to all Directors shall be valid if all the Directors entitled to vote at the meeting who do not attend waive notice of the meeting, and for this purpose the presence of a Director at a meeting shall constitute waiver by that Director. The inadvertent failure to give notice of a meeting to a Director, or the fact that a Director has not received the notice, does not invalidate the meeting.
  
11.6A meeting of Directors is duly constituted for all purposes if at the commencement of the meeting there are present in person or, following the consummation of a Business Combination, by alternate not less than one-half of the total number of Directors, unless there are only two Directors in which case the quorum is two.
  
11.7If the Company has only one Director the provisions herein contained for meetings of Directors do not apply and such sole Director has full power to represent and act for the Company in all matters as are not by the Act, the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members. In lieu of minutes of a meeting the sole Director shall record in writing and sign a note or memorandum of all matters requiring a Resolution of Directors. Such a note or memorandum constitutes sufficient evidence of such resolution for all purposes.
  
11.8At meetings of Directors at which the Chairman of the Board is present, he shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present, the Directors present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting. If the Directors are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the oldest individual Director present (and for this purpose an alternate Director shall be deemed to be the same age as the Director that he represents) shall take the chair. In the case of an equality of votes at a meeting of Directors, the Chairman of the Board shall have a casting vote.
  
11.9An action that may be taken by the Directors or a committee of Directors at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Directors or a resolution of a committee of Directors consented to in writing by all Directors or by all members of the committee, as the case may be, without the need for any notice. The consent may be in the form of counterparts each counterpart being signed by one or more Directors. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the date upon which the last Director has consented to the resolution by signed counterparts.
  
12COMMITTEES
  
12.1The Directors may, by Resolution of Directors, designate one or more committees, each consisting of one or more Directors, and delegate one or more of their powers, including the power to affix the Seal, to the committee.

(g)to make a declaration of solvency or to approve a liquidation plan.

 

41
 

 

12.3Regulations 12.2(b) and (c) do not prevent a committee of Directors, where authorised by the Resolution of Directors appointing such committee or by a subsequent Resolution of Directors, from appointing a sub-committee and delegating powers exercisable by the committee to the sub-committee.
  
12.4The meetings and proceedings of each committee of Directors consisting of 2 or more Directors shall be governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors so far as the same are not superseded by any provisions in the Resolution of Directors establishing the committee.
  
13OFFICERS AND AGENTS
  
13.1The Company may by Resolution of Directors appoint officers of the Company at such times as may be considered necessary or expedient. Such officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors, a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Financial Officer (in each case there may be more than one of such officers), one or more vice-presidents, secretaries and treasurers and such other officers as may from time to time be considered necessary or expedient. Any number of offices may be held by the same person.
  
13.2The officers shall perform such duties as are prescribed at the time of their appointment subject to any modification in such duties as may be prescribed thereafter by Resolution of Directors. In the absence of any specific prescription of duties it shall be the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board (or Co-Chairman, as the case may be) to preside at meetings of Directors and Members, the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be) to manage the day to day affairs of the Company, the vice-presidents to act in order of seniority in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be) but otherwise to perform such duties as may be delegated to them by the Chief Executive Officer (or Co-Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be), the secretaries to maintain the share register, minute books and records (other than financial records) of the Company and to ensure compliance with all procedural requirements imposed on the Company by applicable law, and the treasurer to be responsible for the financial affairs of the Company.
  
13.3The emoluments of all officers shall be fixed by Resolution of Directors.
  
13.4The officers of the Company shall hold office until their death, resignation or removal. Any officer elected or appointed by the Directors may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by Resolution of Directors. Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Company may be filled by Resolution of Directors.
  
13.5The Directors may, by a Resolution of Directors, appoint any person, including a person who is a Director, to be an agent of the Company. An agent of the Company shall have such powers and authority of the Directors, including the power and authority to affix the Seal, as are set forth in the Articles or in the Resolution of Directors appointing the agent, except that no agent has any power or authority with respect to the matters specified in Regulation 12.2. The Resolution of Directors appointing an agent may authorise the agent to appoint one or more substitutes or delegates to exercise some or all of the powers conferred on the agent by the Company. The Directors may remove an agent appointed by the Company and may revoke or vary a power conferred on him.

14CONFLICT OF INTERESTS
  
14.1A Director of the Company shall, forthwith after becoming aware of the fact that he is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the Company, disclose the interest to all other Directors of the Company.
  
14.2For the purposes of Regulation 14.1, a disclosure to all other Directors to the effect that a Director is a member, Director or officer of another named entity or has a fiduciary relationship with respect to the entity or a named individual and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction which may, after the date of the entry or disclosure, be entered into with that entity or individual, is a sufficient disclosure of interest in relation to that transaction.
  
14.3Provided that the requirements of Regulation 9.13 have first been satisfied, a Director of the Company who is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the Company may:

 

(a)vote on a matter relating to the transaction;
   
(b)attend a meeting of Directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among the Directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and

and, subject to compliance with the Act and these Articles shall not, by reason of his office be accountable to the Company for any benefit which he derives from such transaction and no such transaction shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any such interest or benefit.

 

15INDEMNIFICATION
  
15.1Subject to the limitations hereinafter provided the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate against all direct and indirect costs, fees and Expenses of any type or nature whatsoever, any person who:

 

(a)is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, officer, key employee, adviser of the Company or who at the request of the Company; or
   
(b)is or was, at the request of the Company, serving as a Director of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another Enterprise.

 

15.2The indemnity in Regulation 15.1 only applies if the relevant Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, the Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
  
15.3The decision of the Directors as to whether an Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company and as to whether such Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful is, in the absence of fraud, sufficient for the purposes of the Articles, unless a question of law is involved.

 

43
 

 

15.4The termination of any Proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction or the entering of a nolle prosequi does not, by itself, create a presumption that the relevant Indemnitee did not act honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company or that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
  
15.5The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, purchase or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond in relation to any Indemnitee or who at the request of the Company is or was serving as a Director, officer or liquidator of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another Enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by him in that capacity, whether or not the Company has or would have had the power to indemnify him against the liability as provided in these Articles.

23BUSINESS COMBINATION
  
23.1Regulations 23.1 to 23.11 shall terminate upon consummation of any Business Combination.
  
23.2The Company has until 12 months from the closing of the IPO to consummate a Business Combination, provided however that if the Board of Directors anticipates that the Company may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months in the situation where the Company has not filed a proxy statement, registration statement or similar filing for a Business Combination within such 12-month period, the Company may, by Resolution of Directors, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to twelve (12) times, each by an additional one (1) month (for a total of up to 24 months, to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Initial Shareholders depositing additional funds into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the Trust Agreement and referred to in the Registration Statement. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO or within up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO (subject in the latter case to valid one month extensions having been made in each case) (such date falling 12 months or up to 24 months, as applicable, after the closing of the IPO being referred to as the Termination Date), such failure shall trigger an automatic redemption of the Public Shares (an Automatic Redemption Event) and the Directors of the Company shall take all such action necessary (i) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter to redeem the Public Shares in cash at a per-share amount equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price; and (ii) as promptly as practicable, to cease all operations except for the purpose of making such distribution and any subsequent winding up of the Company’s affairs. In the event of an Automatic Redemption Event, only the holders of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive pro rata redeeming distributions from the Trust Account (including interests but net of taxes payable) with respect to their Public Shares.
  
23.3Unless a shareholder vote is required by law or the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, or, at the sole discretion of the Directors, the Directors determine to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company may enter into a Business Combination without submitting such Business Combination to its Members for approval.
  
23.4Although not required, in the event that a shareholder vote is held, and a majority of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote thereon which were present at the meeting to approve the Business Combination are voted for the approval of such Business Combination, the Company shall be authorised to consummate the Business Combination.

 

47
 

 

23.5

 

(a)In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Company other than in connection with a shareholder vote under Regulation 23.4, the Company will, subject to as provided below, offer to redeem the Public Shares for cash in accordance with Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act and subject to any limitations (including but not limited to cash requirements) set forth in the definitive transaction agreements related to the initial Business Combination (the Tender Redemption Offer), provided however that the Company shall not redeem those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates pursuant to such Tender Redemption Offer, whether or not such holders accept such Tender Redemption Offer. The Company will file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to consummating the Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the Business Combination and the redemption rights as would be required in a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. In accordance with the Exchange Act, the Tender Redemption Offer will remain open for a minimum of 20 Business Days and the Company will not be permitted to consummate its Business Combination until the expiry of such period. If in the event a Member holding Public Shares accepts the Tender Redemption Offer and the Company has not otherwise withdrawn the tender offer, the Company shall, promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination, pay such redeeming Member, on a pro rata basis, cash equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price.
   
(b)In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Company in connection with a shareholder vote held pursuant to Regulation 23.4 in accordance with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act (the Redemption Offer), the Company will, subject as provided below, offer to redeem the Public Shares, other than those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates, regardless of whether such shares are voted for or against the Business Combination, for cash, on a pro rata basis, at a per-share amount equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price, provided however that: (i) the Company shall not redeem those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates pursuant to such Redemption Offer, whether or not such holders accept such Redemption Offer; and (ii) any other redeeming Member who either individually or together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (as such term is defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act) shall not be permitted to redeem, without the consent of the Directors, more than fifteen percent (15%) of the total Public Shares sold in the IPO.
   
(c)In no event will the Company consummate the Tender Redemption Offer or the Redemption Offer under Regulation 23.5(a) or 23.5(b) or an Amendment Redemption Event under Regulation 23.11 if such redemptions would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than US$5,000,001 (and after payment of underwriters’ fees and commissions) prior to or upon consummation of a Business Combination.

 

23.6A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the event of an Automatic Redemption Event, an Amendment Redemption Event or in the event he accepts a Tender Redemption Offer or a Redemption Offer where the Business Combination is consummated. In no other circumstances shall a holder of Public Shares have any right or interest of any kind in or to the Trust Account.
  
23.7Following the IPO, the Company will not issue any Securities (other than Public Shares) prior to a Business Combination that would entitle the holder thereof to (i) receive funds from the Trust Account; or (ii) vote on any Business Combination.
  
23.8In the event the Company seeks to complete a Business Combination with a company that is affiliated with an Initial Shareholder, the Company will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions that such a Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view.
  
23.9The Company will not effectuate a Business Combination with another “blank cheque” company or a similar company with nominal operations.
  
23.10Immediately after the Company’s IPO, that amount of the net proceeds received by the Company from the IPO (including proceeds of any exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option) and from the simultaneous private placement by the Company as is stated in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC (such registration statement at the time it initially goes effective, the Registration Statement) to be deposited in the Trust Account shall be so deposited and thereafter held in the Trust Account until released in the event of a Business Combination or otherwise in accordance with this Regulation 23. Neither the Company nor any officer, Director or employee of the Company will disburse any of the proceeds held in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) a Business Combination, or (ii) an Automatic Redemption Event or in payment of the acquisition price for any shares which the Company elects to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire in accordance with this Regulation 23, in each case in accordance with the trust agreement governing the Trust Account; provided that interest earned on the Trust Account (as described in the Registration Statement) may be released from time to time to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligations.
