DiamondHead Holding Corps. (NASDAQ:DHHC) announced in an 8-K this morning that it has entered into subscription agreements with lock-up investors and PIPE investors in connection to its business combination with Great Southern Homes.
Although the deal was approved by shareholders during a meeting last Thursday, the parties are still working to raise funds to meet the $125 million minimum cash condition in order to close the deal. Only 109,426 shares were redeemed in the connection with the vote, but DiamondHead has seen about 87% redemptions in total across all previous votes, leaving it with about $43.9 million in its trust.
On March 23, DHHC entered into certain private placement transactions with lock-up investors. The SPAC agreed to issue 0.25 UHG Class A Common Shares, or up to 421,100 UHG Class A Common Shares, to each lock-up investor for $0.01 per share, for each share of DHHC Class A Common Shares held by the lock-up investor at the closing.
Additionally, the SPAC and PIPE investors entered into subscription agreements for the purchase of 4471,500 shares of UHG Class A Common Shares at a price per share of $10. For each UHG Class A Common Share purchased by each PIPE investor, UHG will issue to the applicable PIPE investor 0.25 UHG Class A Common Shares, or up to 117,875 UHG Class A Common shares in the aggregate, for a purchase price of $0.01 per share for gross proceeds to UHG of approximately $4.7 million.
Pursuant to the terms of the share lock-up agreements and the PIPE subscription agreements, each of the investors has agreed to subject all of the UHG Class A Common Shares following the completion of the transactions to resale and transfer restrictions for one year for 50% of the lock-up shares and two years for the remaining 50%. The foregoing resale and transfer restrictions may be waived by DHHC provided that an investor is granted a release from the restrictions.
DiamondHead initially announced the $572 million combination with Great Southern Homes in September 2022. Columbia, South Carolina-based Great Southern Homes is one of the largest homebuilders in the Southeast and focuses on the entry level home buyer segments.
