--Sky Harbour Group LLC Agrees to Waive
Minimum Financing Condition to Complete Business
Combination
Yellowstone Acquisition Company (the “Company” or “Yellowstone”)
(NASDAQ:YSAC, YSACU, YSACW), a special purpose acquisition company,
announced today that Boston Omaha Corporation, through its
subsidiary BOC YAC, LLC, has agreed to provide $45 million of PIPE
financing in connection with the closing of the potential business
combination with Sky Harbour LLC (“Sky”), in addition to the $55
million Series B investment that will convert to Class A common
stock upon completion of the business combination. Boston Omaha is
committing $100 million in total to Sky for the acceleration of
Sky’s business plan. The PIPE Financing will be provided through
the purchase of Yellowstone Class A common stock at a price of
$10.00 per share immediately prior to the closing of the business
combination. BOC YAC, LLC has executed a PIPE Subscription
Agreement to provide the additional $45 million in equity
financing. In consideration of the investment, Sky has agreed to
waive the $150 million minimum financing condition (as described
below) which required that the Company deliver cash proceeds of at
least $150 million (after payment of certain expenses) to Sky as a
condition precedent to consummating the business combination.
The Equity Purchase Agreement the parties entered into on August
1, 2021 required that Boston Omaha provide to Sky a backstop
(consisting of securities and/or cash) through the purchase of
additional shares of YAC Class A common stock, at a price of $10.00
per share immediately prior to the consummation of the business
combination if needed, as described below (the “Back-Stop
Financing”) in the event that (i) the amount of cash available in
the Trust Account immediately prior to closing after deducting only
the amounts payable to holders who have validly redeemed their
Class A Common Stock plus (ii) the BOC YAC previous investment of
$55 million, and (iii) any additional financing amounts (including
through a Subsequent PIPE) actually received prior to or
substantially concurrently with the closing is less than $150
million (the “Minimum Available Buyer Financing Amount”),
Yellowstone and Sky have agreed that the funding of the BOC PIPE
will be in lieu of, and will satisfy, Boston Omaha’s obligation to
provide the Backstop Financing. The sum of (i), (ii) and (iii) in
the preceding sentence, plus the amount of Back-Stop Financing
actually funded, if any, is referred to as the “Available Buyer
Financing.” The Back-Stop Financing was to be funded in an amount
not to exceed $45 million which would be sufficient to cause the
Available Buyer Financing to equal the Minimum Available Buyer
Financing Amount. Instead, the BOC PIPE will be funded in
accordance with the terms of the BOC PIPE Subscription
Agreement.
