Trajectory Alpha (NYSE:TCOA) announced in an 8-K this morning that it has opted to postpone its June 8 extension vote to June 12 at 10 am ET.
The SPAC will use this extra time to engage with shareholders at work to reverse redemption decisions. Trajectory Alpha’s team may still be getting acquainted with some major investors, as the current management was appointed just last week after broker dealer J. Streicher Holdings bought out the SPAC’s sponsor economics.
The new management, led by financial services veteran CEO Paul Davis, has already laid one new incentive on the table. Trajectory Alpha is now upping its proposed contribution for to the trust in connection with the extension to the lesser of $150,000 or $0.04 per share monthly from $125,000 or $0.03 per share.
The extension proposal would allow Trajectory Alpha to extend this deadline in monthly increments up to nine times from June 14 to March 14, 2024 to give the new team time to search for its target.
The SPAC estimates its redemption rate at $10.33 and its shares last closed Tuesday trading at $10.34. It raised a total of $174.2 million in its initial December 2021 IPO.
