Item 8.01. Other Events
On October 3, 2022, Atlantic Avenue Acquisition Corp (the "Company") issued a
press release announcing that it has cancelled its special meeting of
stockholders that was previously scheduled for 10:00 AM Eastern time on October
4, 2022, and that, due to its inability to complete an initial business
combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, the Company intends to dissolve and liquidate,
effective as of the close of business on October 6, 2022, and will redeem all of
the outstanding shares of Class A common stock that were included in the units
issued in its initial public offering (the "Public Shares"), at a per-share
redemption price of approximately $10.03.
As of the close of business on October 6, 2022, the Public Shares will be deemed
cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount.
In order to provide for the disbursement of funds from the trust account, the
Company has instructed the trustee of the trust account to take all necessary
actions to liquidate the securities held in the trust account. The proceeds of
the trust account will be held in a non-interest bearing account while awaiting
disbursement to the holders of the Public Shares. Record holders will receive
their pro rata portion of the proceeds of the trust account by delivering their
Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company's
transfer agent. Beneficial owners of Public Shares held in "street name,"
however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the redemption
amount. The redemption of the Public Shares is expected to be completed within
ten business days after October 6, 2022.
The Company's sponsor has agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to
its outstanding Class B common stock issued prior to the Company's initial
public offering. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions
with respect to the Company's warrants, which will expire worthless.
The Company expects that the New York Stock Exchange will file a Form 25 with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to
delist the Company's securities. The Company thereafter expects to file a Form
15 with the Commission to terminate the registration of its securities under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
