Cartesian Growth Corporation II, a company specializing in blank check offerings, has entered into a material definitive agreement, issuing an unsecured promissory note to its sponsor, CGC II Sponsor LLC. The note, valued at $250,000 and dated July 12, 2024, represents a direct financial obligation for the New York-based company.
The note is non-interest bearing and its principal amount is due on the earlier of two events: the completion of the company’s initial business combination or the effective date of the company’s winding up.
If a business combination is realized, the sponsor has the option to convert any or all of the principal into warrants, at a rate of one warrant per dollar of the principal amount converted. These “Working Capital Warrants” would carry the same conditions as the private placement warrants issued during the company’s initial public offering (IPO) on May 5, 2022.
In case of default, the agreement stipulates that the outstanding balance and any other payable sums will become immediately due. The issuance of the promissory note adheres to the exemption from registration stated in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
Cartesian Growth Corporation II, which falls under the “Blank Checks” industrial classification and operates under the name 05 Real Estate & Construction, has its shares and warrants listed on The Stock Market LLC under the symbols RENEU, RENE, and RENEW, respectively.
In other recent news, Cartesian Growth Corporation II has announced its ninth extension for concluding an initial business combination, now slated for August 10, 2024. This extension, as reported in a recent SEC filing, underscores the company’s ongoing endeavors to finalize a business deal within the given timeframe.
On July 3, 2024, Cartesian Growth Corporation II exercised its option to extend the business combination period, drawing $150,000 from an unsecured promissory note.
This note, with a principal amount of up to $1.8 million, was issued in favor of CGC II Sponsor LLC, Cartesian’s sponsor, on November 6, 2023. The funds for the extension were deposited into the trust account established during the company’s initial public offering. This latest extension is part of twelve possible one-month extensions stipulated in the company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
