Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The information provided in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

On September 19, 2022, Horizon Acquisition Corporation II (the “Company”) obtained working capital loans in the total amount of $1,500,000 from the Company’s sponsor (Horizon II Sponsor, LLC) and an affiliate thereof (Vista Portfolio Trust, LLC). The loans made by each lender are each evidenced by a promissory note (each, a “Note”). The Company expects to use the proceeds of the loans to fund working capital deficiencies and to finance transaction costs in connection with a potential business combination (as to which there can be no assurance).

 

The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company. They are payable from assets of the Company other than the Company’s Trust Account (as defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association). Each Note provides that the holder waives recourse to the Trust Account.

 

The principal balance of each Note is payable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination and (ii) the date on which the Company liquidates the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate its initial business combination within the time period set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Such time period currently ends on October 22, 2022 and will end on September 30, 2023, if the Company’s proposal to extend the time period is approved by the Company’s shareholders, as described in the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 26, 2022.

 

The Notes do not bear interest.

 

The holder of each Note has the option to convert all or any portion of the principal outstanding under such Note into warrants at a conversion price of $1.50 per warrant. However, the maximum principal amount that may be converted, as to both Notes and all other notes evidencing working capital loans, is $1,500,000 or such greater dollar amount as may be agreed to by the Company, with such approvals as may be necessary or advisable. The warrants into which the Notes may be converted will be substantially identical to the terms of the private placement warrants issued by the Company in connection with its initial public offering. Such terms entitle the holder of a warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share of the Company for $11.50.

 

The foregoing description of the Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each Note, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
