Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

On November 18, 2022, PropTech Investment Corporation II, a Delaware corporation (“PTIC II”) held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), at which holders of 21,415,251 shares of PTIC II’s common stock were present in person or by proxy, collectively representing 74.488% of the voting power of PTIC II’s outstanding voting capital stock as of the date of the Special Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting. The proposals listed below are described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement of PTIC II which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 28, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”) and in the definitive additional proxy materials filed with the SEC on November 8, 2022 and November 10, 2022. A summary of the voting results at the Special Meeting is set forth below:

 

The PTIC II stockholders approved the PTIC II Charter Amendment Proposal, the Business Combination Proposal, the Appreciate Charter Proposal, the Advisory Governing Documents Proposals, the Nasdaq Proposal and the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal (each as defined in the Proxy Statement). As set forth in the Proxy Statement, the Adjournment Proposal (as defined in the Proxy Statement) would only be presented to PTIC II stockholders, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the Special Meeting. As each of the other Proxy Statement proposals passed, there was no need to present the Adjournment Proposal to the PTIC II stockholders.

 

The voting results for each proposal were as follows:

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

 

On November 18, 2022, in connection with the business combination (the “Business Combination”) contemplated by the Transactions, PTIC II issued a press release. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The foregoing (including Exhibit 99.1) is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01, and it, along with information contained on PTIC II’s website and the websites of Renters Warehouse, or any of their affiliates (or linked therein or otherwise connected thereto), will not be deemed to be filed, or incorporated by reference into, this Current Report on Form 8-K, for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor will it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be considered forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or PTIC II’s or Renters Warehouse’s future financial or operating performance, and other “forward-looking statements” (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which include statements relating to the Business Combination. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” or the negatives of these terms or similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the inability of the parties to successfully or timely complete the Business Combination. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by PTIC II and its management, and/or Renters Warehouse and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against PTIC II, Renters Warehouse, the combined company following the Business Combination or others following the announcement of the transactions related to the Business Combination including the Business Combination Agreement; (3) the inability to complete the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement due to the failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of PTIC II, to obtain financing necessary to complete the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (4) the failure of any condition precedent to the committed equity facility in connection with the common stock purchase agreement by and between PTIC II and CF Principal Investments LLC, which could cause the termination of such facility; (5) changes to the proposed structure of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to obtaining regulatory approval of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; (6) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards at or following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; (7) the risk that the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement disrupt current plans and operations of Renters Warehouse or PTIC II as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (9) costs related to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility that Renters Warehouse or the combined company following the Business Combination may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (12) Renters Warehouse’s estimates of expenses and profitability; (13) the failure to realize anticipated pro forma results or projections and underlying assumptions, including with respect to estimated stockholder redemptions, purchase price, and other adjustments;(14) debt defaults, and the need for or failure to obtain additional capital; and (15) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in PTIC II’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the Proxy Statement, and in any subsequent filings with the SEC. There may be additional risks that neither PTIC II nor Renters Warehouse presently know or that PTIC II and Renters Warehouse currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Neither PTIC II nor Renters Warehouse undertakes any duty, and each of PTIC II and Renters Warehouse expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter this Current Report on Form 8-K or any projections or forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
