13 Dezember 2021 - 1:00PM
Business Wire
SCVX Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (NYSE: SCVX)
(“SCVX”) and a special purpose
acquisition company, and Bright Machines, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Bright Machines”), today
announced that both companies have mutually agreed to terminate
their previously announced business combination agreement,
effective immediately. In light of the low likelihood that the
business combination agreement could be completed prior to the
January 15, 2022 “outside date” set forth in the merger agreement
and current market conditions, SCVX and Bright Machines believe
that terminating the business combination agreement is the best
path forward for the parties and their respective stockholders.
SCVX is considering alternative transactions, including extending
its current dissolution deadline of January 28, 2022 and pursuing
another business combination.
