Item 1.01.        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 23, 2020, Breeze Holdings Acquisition Company Inc. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, one right (“Right”), and one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”). Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of an initial business combination and each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $100,000,000.

In connection with the IPO, the underwriters were granted a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotment, if any. On November 25, 2020, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds of $15,000,000 to the Company.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-249677) for the IPO, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 26, 2020, as amended (the “Registration Statement”):

Item 3.02.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to certain Warrant Purchase Agreements, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 5,425,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to Breeze Sponsor, LLC

 

2


and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,425,000. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Warrants: (i) will not be redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, as described in the Registration Statement, in each case so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Private Placement Warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 5.02.        Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

In connection with the IPO, Daniel L. Hunt, Albert S. McLelland, Robert L. Thomas, and Bill Stark were appointed to the board of directors of the Company. The board of directors has determined that the directors are independent directors within the meaning of applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. Effective upon their appointment, (i) Messrs. McLelland, Thomas and Hunt were appointed to the board’s audit committee, with Mr. McLelland serving as chair of the audit committee; (ii) Messrs. McLelland, Thomas and Stark were appointed to the board’s compensation committee, with Mr. Thomas serving as chair of the compensation committee; and (iii) Messrs. Hunt, Thomas and Stark were appointed to the board’s nominating and corporate governance committee, with Mr. Hunt serving as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee.

In connection with their appointments to the board of directors, each director and the Company’s then-serving directors, J. Douglas Ramsey and Russell D. Griffin entered into indemnity agreements with the Company in the form previously filed as Exhibit 10.7 to the Registration Statement.

Other than the foregoing, none of the directors are party to any arrangement or understanding with any person pursuant to which they were appointed as directors, nor are they party to any transactions required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K involving the Company.

The foregoing description of the form of indemnity agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of indemnity agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.7 to the Registration Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01.        Other Events.

A total of $116,725,000 of the proceeds from the IPO (including the full exercise of the over-allotment option) and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any shares of common stock included in the Units sold in the IPO (“public shares”) properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 18 months from the closing of IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete an initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 18 months from the closing of IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination), subject to applicable law.
