Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 11, 2021, IG Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued a promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of up to $500,000 to IG Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”). The Note was issued in connection with advances the Sponsor has made, and may make in the future, to the Company for working capital expenses. The Note bears no interest and is due and payable upon the earlier of (i) October 5, 2022 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination. At the election of the Sponsor, all or a portion of the unpaid principal amount of the Note may be converted into warrants of the Company, each warrant exercisable for one share of Class A common stock of the Company upon the consummation of an initial business combination (the “Conversion Warrants”), equal to: (x) the portion of the principal amount of the Note being converted, divided by (y) $1.00, rounded up to the nearest whole number of warrants. The Conversion Warrants are identical to the warrants issued by the Company to the Sponsor in a private placement in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. The Conversion Warrants and their underlying securities are entitled to the registration rights set forth in the Note.
The issuance of the Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The disclosure contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.03.
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On November 15, 2021, the audit committee of the board of directors of the Company concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management and with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP, that (i) the Company’s audited balance sheet as of October 5, 2020 filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 9, 2020, (ii) the Company’s audited financial statements as of December 31, 2020 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 24, 2021, (iii) the Company’s unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2021 contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 24, 2021 and (iv) the Company’s unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2021 contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 12, 2021, should no longer be relied upon due to the reclassification of all of the Company’s Class A common stock as temporary equity.
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021, due to the material weakness in analyzing complex financial instruments including the proper accounting for warrants as liabilities and the proper classification of redeemable shares of Class A common stock as temporary equity. In light of this material weakness, the Company performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that the Company’s unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company reflected the restatements of the Company’s financial statements identified above in Note 2 of the financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on November 15, 2021 and accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in such report present fairly in all material respects the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
