SCHEDULE 13D
CUSIP No. 351665 104
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
On June 21, 2023, Foxx Development Inc., a Texas corporation (“Foxx”), issued a promissory note (“Note 1”) to New Bay, in the principal amount of $2 million with an interest rate of 7% per annum, convertible into shares of Foxx common stock at $30.00 per share upon the listing of Foxx common stock through an initial public offering. On December 21, 2023, Foxx issued another promissory note (“Note 2”) to New Bay in the principal amount of $2 million with the same terms and conditions as Note 1.
On February 18, 2024, Acri Capital Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ACAC”), the Issuer, Acri Capital Merger Sub II Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Merger Sub”), and Foxx, entered into a business combination agreement (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”).
In connection with the Business Combination Agreement and all the transaction contemplated therein (the “Business Combination”), in the spring of 2024, Foxx and ACAC reached out to New Bay Capital Limited (“New Bay”), to seek its interest in participating in a financing in connection with the Business Combination.
After negotiations with New Bay, On March 15, 2024, Foxx and New Bay agreed to an amendment to Convertible Note Agreement, to amend Note 1 and Note 2 to remove the lock-up provisions as provided therein and allow the unpaid principal and accrued interest on Note 1 and Note 2 to convert to Foxx common stock immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. New Bay also subscribed for a new promissory note (“Note 3”) in the principal amount of $2 million under the same terms and conditions as amended Note 1 and Note 2 (collectively, the “New Bay Notes”).
On September 25, 2024, ACAC merged (the “Reincorporation Merger”) with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer as the surviving entity and on September 26, 2024 (the “Closing”), Foxx merged (the “Acquisition Merger”) with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer.
Immediately prior to the Closing, all of the unpaid principal and accrued interest on the New Bay Notes were converted into 212,050 shares of Foxx common stock, at a price of $30.00 per share. At the Closing, all of the converted shares of Foxx common stock were cancelled in exchange for the holders’ pro rata share of the 5,000,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock, which was the merger consideration that the Issuer issued to the holders of Foxx common stock, resulting in 700,473 shares of Issuer Common Stock issued to New Bay.
On the same date, among other things, (x) the Issuer changed its name from “Acri Capital Merger Sub I Inc.” to “Fox Development Holdings Inc.” and (y) the common stock and warrants of the Issuer commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Except as set forth in this Item 4, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present board of directors (the “Board”) or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the issuer is a registered closed-end investment company; (g) changes in the Issuer’s charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
