ELECU Electrum Special Acquisition Corp. - Unit (delisted)

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On May 9, 2018, ESAC Holdings LLC notified Electrum Special Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) that it will cease making contributions to the Company’s trust account as described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 22, 2018. Accordingly, there will be no contribution of $0.035 per public share (as defined below) for the calendar month ended June 5, 2018. The Company intends to dissolve and liquidate in accordance with its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Memorandum and Articles of Association”), including the redemption of all of its outstanding ordinary shares (the “public shares”) that were included in the units issued in its initial public offering, as soon as possible after June 5, 2018. The Company estimates that the per-share redemption price for the public shares will be approximately $10.48.

As of the close of business on June 5, 2018, the public shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The redemption amount will be payable to the holders of the public shares upon presentation of their share certificates or other delivery of their public shares. Beneficial owners of public shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the redemption amount. The redemption of the public shares will be completed within ten (10) business days after June 5, 2018.

The Company’s initial shareholders have waived their right to receive distributions with respect to their ordinary shares issued prior to the Company’s initial public offering.
