Harmony Merger Corp. Announces Filing of Proxy Supplement
March 20 2017 - 11:36AM
Business Wire
Harmony Merger Corp. (“Harmony”) (NASDAQ: HRMNU, HRMN, HRMNW), a
public investment vehicle formed for the purpose of effecting a
merger, acquisition or similar business combination, announced
today that it has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) a supplement to its definitive proxy statement, dated
March 13, 2017 (the “Proxy Supplement”) relating to its annual
meeting of stockholders.
At the annual meeting, Harmony’s stockholders will be asked to
consider and vote upon, among other things, a proposal to amend
(the “Extension Amendment”) Harmony’s amended and restated
certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Harmony
has to consummate an initial business combination (the “Extension”)
to July 27, 2017 (the “Extended Date”).
The Proxy Supplement indicated that Harmony’s stockholders prior
to its initial public offering that participated in the
simultaneous private placement of units (the “insiders”) and
NextDecade, LLC (“NextDecade”), the liquefied natural gas (“LNG”)
development company focused on LNG export projects and associated
pipelines in the State of Texas that has executed a previously
announced non-binding letter of intent with the Company for a
proposed business combination, have agreed that if the Extension
Amendment is approved, they or their affiliates will contribute to
Harmony as a loan (each loan being referred to herein as a
“Contribution”) $0.0275 for each public share that is not converted
in connection with the stockholder vote to approve the Extension,
for each month (or a pro rata portion thereof if less than a
month), that is needed by Harmony to complete an initial business
combination from March 27, 2017 until the Extended Date.
Accordingly, if Harmony takes until the Extended Date to complete
an initial business combination, which would represent four months
through the Extended Date, the insiders and NextDecade would make
aggregate Contributions of approximately $1,265,000 (assuming no
public shares were converted). Accordingly, if the Extension
Amendment is approved and the Extension is completed and Harmony
takes the full time through the Extended Date to complete an
initial business combination, the conversion amount per share at
the meeting for such business combination or Harmony’s subsequent
liquidation will be approximately $10.32 per share, in comparison
to the current conversion amount of approximately $10.21 per share.
The insiders and NextDecade will not make any Contribution unless
the Extension Amendment is approved and the Extension is
completed.
Further information regarding the Proxy Supplement and the
Contributions to be made by the insiders and NextDecade will be
included in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
