Separate Trading of Common Stock and Warrants
On April 6, 2015, FinTech Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) announced that the holders of the Company’s units (“Units”) may elect to separately trade the securities included in the Units commencing on April 6, 2015. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $12.00 per share, subject to adjustment (“Warrant”). Those Units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “FNTCU” and each of the underlying shares of Common Stock and the Warrants are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “FNTC” and “FNTCW,” respectively. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the Units into shares of Common Stock and Warrants.
A copy of the Press Release issued by the Company announcing the separate trading of the securities underlying the Units is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Forfeiture of Founder Shares
As a result of the underwriter’s determination not to exercise its over-allotment option to purchase additional Units for the initial public offering of the Units, certain of the Company’s initial stockholders forfeited an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Common Stock. As a result of such forfeiture, there are 13,733,333 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this report.
