Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On April 24, 2024, Global Technology Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”) issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) to HCG Opportunity II, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (“Sponsor”), which provides for borrowings from time to time of up to an aggregate of $2,500,000 for working capital purposes and/or to finance additional deposits into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) established by the Company upon the consummation of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) in connection with the extension of the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination (a “Business Combination”) as set forth in the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Articles”). The Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full by the Company upon the earlier of: (i) the date that the Company consummates a Business Combination and (ii) the date on which the Company liquidates the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Articles (each such date, the “Maturity Date”). The Note may be drawn down by the Company from time to time prior to the Maturity Date. Upon the consummation of a Business Combination, the Sponsor will have the option (but not the obligation) to convert all or any portion of the principal balance of the Note into private placement warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares of the Company at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The terms of such private placement warrants (if issued) will be identical to the private placement warrants issued by the Company to its former sponsor in a private placement concurrent with the consummation of the IPO. In the event the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, the Note will be repaid only to the extent that the Company has funds available to it outside of the Trust Account. The Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Note becoming immediately due and payable.
The Note was issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The foregoing description of the Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
On April 25, 2024, the Company borrowed $225,000 under the Note and deposited $209,000 into the Trust Account to fund the initial three-month extension of the Company’s termination date until July 25, 2024.
