New York, NY, Dec. 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Globalink Investment Inc. (Nasdaq: GLLI, GLLIW, GLLIR, GLLIU) (“Globalink” or the “Company”), a special purpose acquisition company, announced today that its stockholders approved amendments to its charter and trust agreement to extend the deadline to complete its initial business combination and change the structure and cost of such extensions. Globalink obtained the first of up to twelve extensions of the deadline – from December 9, 2023 to January 9, 2024 – by depositing $60,000 into its trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company (“Continental”).
Globalink’s stockholders, at a special meeting of its stockholders held on November 28, 2023, approved amendments to Globalink’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) and Globalink’s Investment Management Trust Agreement, as amended, originally entered into on December 6, 2021 with Continental (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to extend the deadline to complete Globalink’s initial business combination from December 9, 2023 to up until December 9, 2024 for up to twelve times of monthly extensions, by depositing into the Trust Account $60,000 prior to each one-month extension.
The Charter Amendment triggered a right of Globalink’s public stockholders to demand the redemption of their public shares out of funds held in the Trust Account. Holders of 2,180,738 public shares properly requested redemption leaving 2,562,567 public shares outstanding. After payment of the redemption price to the redeeming public shareholders of approximately $10.82 per share for an aggregate of $23.60 million, Globalink will have approximately $27.73 million left in its Trust Account.
As a consequence of the adoption of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Agreement Amendment and the redemptions, Globalink can now obtain up to twelve monthly extensions, or up until December 9, 2024, to complete its initial business combination at a cost of $60,000 per extension.
