Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. Notes Upcoming Automatic Unit Separation
08 September 2020 - 1:00PM
Business Wire
Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (“PSTH” or the “Company”)
(NYSE:PSTH.U) announced today that, on Friday, September 11, 2020
(the “Unit Separation Date”), the Company’s PSTH.U Units (the
“Units”) will no longer trade, and that the Company’s Class A
Common Stock (the “Class A Common Stock”) and the Company’s
Distributable Redeemable Warrants (the “Distributable Redeemable
Warrants”) which together comprise the Units will commence trading
separately. The Class A Common Stock and Distributable Redeemable
Warrants will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and trade
with the ticker symbols “PSTH” and “PSTH.WS,” respectively. This is
a mandatory and automatic separation, and no action is required by
the holders of Units.
Each of the 200,000,000 Units sold in PSTH’s initial public
offering consists of one share of Class A Common Stock, one-ninth
of a Distributable Redeemable Warrant, and the right to receive a
distribution of additional warrants (the “Distributable Tontine
Redeemable Warrants”).
In the separation, Unit owners will receive the number of shares
of Class A Common Stock underlying their Units, with the right to
receive any Distributable Tontine Redeemable Warrants remaining
attached to such shares of Class A Common Stock, and the number of
Distributable Redeemable Warrants underlying such Units; however,
no fractional warrants will be issued.
Any holder of Units whose ownership includes a fractional number
of underlying Distributable Redeemable Warrants, will be issued a
number of Distributable Redeemable Warrants that is rounded down to
the nearest whole number. Accordingly, any owner of Units that does
not own a multiple of nine Units will lose some amount of
fractional Distributable Redeemable Warrants upon separation.
Purchases of Units that are made after market close on Tuesday,
September 8, 2020, may not settle prior to the Unit Separation Date
and, accordingly, the number of Distributable Redeemable Warrants
issued to such purchasers may not reflect the Distributable
Redeemable Warrants underlying such recently purchased Units.
Upon the Company’s consummation of an initial business
combination, 44,444,444 Distributable Tontine Redeemable Warrants
will be distributed on a pro-rata basis to holders of record of the
Class A Common Stock issued in the initial public offering (whether
acquired in the initial public offering or afterward) and that the
holders thereof have not elected to redeem. Following the
separation of the Units, the Class A Common Stock will continue to
trade with the right to receive these additional Distributable
Tontine Redeemable Warrants, and such right will not be separately
tradable.
