Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 2, 2023, CONX Corp. (the “Company”) issued an amended and restated promissory note (the “Restated Note”) in the principal amount of up to $550,000 to nXgen Opportunities, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (“Sponsor”). The Restated Note amends, restates, replaces and supersedes that certain promissory note dated March 1, 2023, in the principal amount of $250,000, executed by the Company in favor of the Sponsor. The Restated Note may be drawn down by the Company from time to time prior to the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”). The Note does not bear interest, matures on the earlier of the date of consummation of the Business Combination and the liquidation of the Company, and is subject to customary events of default. The Restated Note will be repaid only to the extent that the Company has funds available to it outside of its trust account established in connection with its initial public offering.

 

The foregoing description of the Restated Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Note, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The disclosure contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.

 

Item 5.03

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

 

On November 3, 2023, the Company filed an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Extension Amendment extends the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from November 3, 2023 to May 3, 2024.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Extension Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

On November 3, 2023, the Company convened a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the close of business on the record date of the Special Meeting, there were 2,728,262 shares of Class A common stock (of which 30,000 shares were owned by our three independent directors) and 18,750,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (collectively, the “Common Stock”), each of which was entitled to one vote with respect to the Extension Amendment Proposal (as defined below). A total of 2,728,262 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 96.38% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, were present in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum. The proposal listed below is described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 12, 2023. The stockholders of the Company voted on a proposal to amend the Amended and Restated Articles to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from November 3, 2023 to May 3, 2024 (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”). A summary of the voting results at the Special Meeting is set forth below.

 

The Extension Amendment Proposal was approved by the Company’s stockholders as follows:

 

For		Against		Abstain
20,452,422		248,760		1

 

Stockholders holding 607,993 shares of Class A common stock (after giving effect to withdrawals of redemptions) exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $6.3 million (approximately $10.42 per share) will be removed from the Trust Account to pay such redeeming holders.

THIRD AMENDMENT
TO THE
AMENDED AND RESTATED
ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
OF
CONX CORP.

 

(November 3, 2023)

 

CONX Corp., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada (the “Corporation”), DOES HEREBY CERTIFY AS FOLLOWS:

 

1.            The name of the Corporation is “CONX Corp.” The original articles of incorporation were filed in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on August 26, 2020 (the “Original Articles”). Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”), which both restated and amended the provisions of the Original Articles, were filed in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on October 29, 2020, the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles was filed in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on October 31, 2022, and the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles was filed in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on June 2, 2023.

 

2.            This Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles was duly adopted in accordance with Section 78.045 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, as amended from time to time, and shall become effective on the date of filing with the Secretary of State of Nevada.

 

3.            Certain capitalized terms used in this Amended and Restated Articles are defined where appropriate herein.

 

4.            The text of Section 9.1(b) of Article IX of the Amended and Restated Articles is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

 

“(b) Immediately after the Offering, a certain amount of the net offering proceeds received by the Corporation in the Offering (including the proceeds of any exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option) and certain other amounts specified in the Corporation’s registration statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 1, 2020, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), shall be deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), established for the benefit of the Public Stockholders (as defined below) pursuant to a trust agreement described in the Registration Statement. Except for the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, none of the funds held in the Trust Account (including the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) will be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of 100% of the Offering Shares (as defined below) if the Corporation is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by May 3, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board) and (iii) the redemption of shares in connection with a vote seeking to amend such provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles as described in Section 9.7. Holders of shares of Common Stock included as part of the units sold in the Offering (the “Offering Shares”) (whether such Offering Shares were purchased in the Offering or in the secondary market following the Offering and whether or not such holders are the Sponsor or officers or directors of the Corporation, or affiliates of any of the foregoing) are referred to herein as “Public Stockholders.”

 

 

5.            The text of Section 9.2(d) of Article IX of the Amended and Restated Articles is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

 

“(d) In the event that the Corporation has not consummated an initial Business Combination by May 3, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board), the Corporation shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Offering Shares in consideration of a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (including interest not previously released to the Corporation to pay its taxes and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the Public Stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Board in accordance with applicable law, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Corporation’s obligations under the NRS to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.”

 

6.            The text of Section 9.7 of Article IX of the Amended and Restated Articles is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

 

“Section 9.7 Additional Redemption Rights. If, in accordance with Section 9.1(a), any amendment is made to these Amended and Restated Articles (a) to modify the substance or timing of the ability of Public Stockholders to seek redemption in connection with an initial Business Combination or the Corporation’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Corporation has not consummated an initial Business Combination by May 3, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board) or (b) with respect to any other material provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, the Public Stockholders shall be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon the approval of any such amendment, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to the Corporation to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares; provided, however, that any such amendment will be voided, and this Article IX will remain unchanged, if any stockholders who wish to redeem are unable to redeem due to the Redemption Limitation.”

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, CONX Corp. has caused this Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles to be duly executed in its name and on its behalf by an authorized officer as of this day of November 3, 2023.
