Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
Meeting of Warrant Holders
On December 14, 2020, LF Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) held a meeting of warrant holders (the “Warrant Holders Meeting”) in connection with the proposed business combination of the Company and Landsea Homes Incorporated (“Landsea”), as described in the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 23, 2020 and incorporated herein by reference. At the Warrant Holders Meeting, a total of 14,037,067 (or 90.41%) of the Company’s outstanding warrants held of record as of November 11, 2020, the record date for the Warrant Holders Meeting, were present either in person or by proxy, which constituted a quorum. The Company’s warrant holders voted on the following proposals at the Warrant Holders Meeting, each of which were approved. The final vote tabulation for each proposal is set forth below.
Proposal 1. To amend the warrant agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”) that governs all of the Company’s outstanding public warrants. The Warrant Amendment proposes to provide that, upon completion of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 31, 2020 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, LFCA Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Landsea, and Landsea Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into Landsea, with Landsea continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”) (i) each of our outstanding public warrants, which currently entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of our Class A Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, will become exercisable for one-tenth of one share at an exercise price of $1.15 per one-tenth share ($11.50 per whole share) and (ii) each holder of a public warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination will be entitled to receive, for each such warrant (in exchange for the reduction in the number of shares for which such warrants are exercisable), a cash payment of $1.85 as soon as reasonably practicable following the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Warrant Amendment Proposal”).
| For | Against | Abstained | ||
| 13,986,229 | 50,838 | 0 |
Proposal 2. To approve the adjournment of the Warrant Holders Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve the Warrant Amendment Proposal.
| For | Against | Abstained | ||
| 13,981,304 | 50,588 | 5,175 |
Although this proposal would have received sufficient votes to be approved, no motion to adjourn was made because the adjournment of the Warrant Holders Meeting was determined not to be necessary or appropriate.
