Marti Technologies, Inc. (“Marti” or the
“Company”) (NYSE American: MRT), Türkiye’s leading mobility
app, today announced that it has successfully completed a tender
process with regard to its offer to purchase all of its outstanding
warrants to purchase its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001
per share (an “Ordinary Share”), at a purchase price of
$0.10 per warrant in cash, without interest (the “Offer”)
and that it has issued a notice of redemption pursuant to which it
will redeem for cash all of its outstanding warrants that were not
tendered in the Offer. All untendered and unexercised warrants will
be redeemed on January 4, 2024 (the “Redemption Date”). The
redemption price will be $0.07 per warrant (the “Redemption
Price”). The successfully completed tender process, when
combined with the contemplated redemption of untendered warrants,
will lead to a simplified capital structure with no warrants.
Marti’s offer to purchase (a) 7,187,489 warrants to purchase its
Ordinary Shares which were publicly issued and sold as part of the
units in the Company’s initial public offering in July 2021 (the
“IPO”) (the “Public Warrants”), and (b) 7,250,000
warrants to purchase its Ordinary Shares which were privately
issued and sold in connection with the IPO pursuant to an exemption
from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”) (the “Private Warrants” and
together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”), expired
at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, at the end of the day on December
19, 2023 (the “Expiration Date”).
Marti has been advised that, as of the Expiration Date, (i)
5,902,206 Public Warrants had been validly tendered and not validly
withdrawn from the Offer, representing approximately 82% of the
outstanding Public Warrants and (ii) 7,250,000 Private Warrants had
been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn from the Offer,
representing 100% of the outstanding Private Warrants, which
cumulatively comprised approximately 91% of all outstanding
Warrants. Pursuant to the terms of the Offer the Company expects to
pay an aggregate of approximately $1.3 million in cash to purchase
the validly tendered Warrants. Holders of Warrants that were
validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration
of the Offer will receive $0.10 in cash, without interest, for each
outstanding Warrant tendered by the holder pursuant to the Offer.
The Company expects to accept all validly tendered Warrants for
purchase and settlement on December 22, 2023 (the
“Settlement”).
Marti also solicited consents (the “Consent
Solicitation”) to amend the Warrant Agreement, dated July 8,
2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer
& Trust Company (“Continental”) (the “Warrant
Agreement”), which governs all of the Warrants, to permit the
Company to redeem each outstanding Warrant not tendered in the
Offer for $0.07 in cash, without interest, which is 30% less than
the price applicable to the Offer (such amendment, the “Warrant
Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement,
the consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding
Public Warrants is required to approve the Warrant Amendment as it
relates to the Public Warrants and the consent of holders of at
least a majority of the outstanding Private Warrants is required to
approve the Warrant Amendment as it relates to the Private
Warrants.
As of the Expiration Date, parties representing approximately
82% of the outstanding Public Warrants and 100% of the outstanding
Private Warrants consented to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent
Solicitation. Accordingly, because holders of more than a majority
of the outstanding Public Warrants and a majority of the
outstanding Private Warrants have agreed to consent to the Warrant
Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, the Warrant Amendment was
adopted. The Warrant Amendment was executed and any Warrants that
were not tendered in the Offer may be exercised at any time until
5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Redemption Date. Any Warrants that
remain unexercised at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Redemption Date
will be void and no longer exercisable and their holders will have
no rights with respect to those Warrants, except to receive the
Redemption Price. Of the total of 14,437,489 Warrants that are
outstanding, 13,152,206 Warrants were tendered in connection with
the Offer and 1,285,283 Warrants remain untendered and subject to
redemption at the Redemption Price, unless exercised prior to the
Redemption Date, following which no Warrants will remain
outstanding.
The Offer and Consent Solicitation were made pursuant to the
Amended and Restated Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation
dated December 7, 2023 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the
related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Letter of
Transmittal and Consent”), each of which have been filed with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The Ordinary Shares and Warrants are listed on the NYSE American
under the symbols “MRT” and “MRT.WS,” respectively. The last
trading day of the Warrants on the NYSE American will be January 3,
2024.
Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”) was the dealer
manager for the Offer and Consent Solicitation. Morrow Sodali
Global LLC (“Morrow Sodali”) was the information agent for
the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and Continental was the
depositary for the Offer and Consent Solicitation. All questions
