To the Stockholders of Trident Acquisitions Corp.:

 

As you know, Trident Acquisitions Corp. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, will hold its annual meeting at the offices of Loeb & Loeb LLP, 345 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10154 on November 26, 2019, at 10 a.m. local time, for the following purposes:

 

  1. To elect two (2) Class I directors to serve until the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her respective successor has been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death.
     
  2. A proposal to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “extension”) for an additional 180 days, from December 1, 2019 to May 29, 2020 (the “Extended Termination Date”).
     
  3. A proposal to amend (the “Trust Amendment”) the Company’s investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of May 29, 2018, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “trustee”) to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account (“trust account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) in the event the Company has not consummated a business combination by the Extended Termination Date. 
     
  4. A proposal to ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 (the “Auditor Proposal”).
     
  5. To act on such other matters as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof.

 

On or about November 7, 2019, the Company mailed to you a proxy statement relating to the annual meeting. The attached first supplement to the proxy statement contains additional information that supplements the proxy statement. The Company urges you to read this first supplement, together with the proxy statement previously sent to you, carefully and in its entirety. This proxy supplement is being sent to you on or about November 13, 2019.

 

The Company is providing this first supplement to reflect, among other things, that the Company must deposit $500,000 in the trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in order to extend the time needed to complete a business combination for a period of three months. In addition, the Company will have the option to extend the its life for one additional three months by depositing an additional $500,000 at least ten calendar days prior to the expiration date.

 

Your vote is important. Whether or not you expect to attend the special meeting in person, please complete, date and sign the proxy card enclosed with the original proxy statement and mail it in the postage-paid envelope to ensure that your shares will be represented and voted at the special meeting. If you have already submitted your proxy card and do not wish to change your vote, there is no need to submit another proxy card in response to this first supplement to the proxy statement.

 

I look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 DATED OCTOBER 10, 2019

TO

PROXY STATEMENT

DATED NOVEMBER 6, 2019

 

TRIDENT ACQUISITIONS CORP.
77 Water Street, Fl 8

New York, NY 10005

 

 

This first supplement is being mailed to the stockholders of record of Trident Acquisitions Corp. (the “Company”) as of the close of business on October 31, 2019. The following information supplements and should be read in conjunction with the original proxy statement dated November 6, 2019 that the Company mailed to you on or about November 7, 2019 (the “Original Proxy Statement”).

 

As discussed in the Original Proxy Statement, the annual meeting will be devoted to (i) the election of certain directors, (ii) a proposal to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “extension”), (iii) a proposal to amend (the “Trust Amendment”) the Company’s investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of May 29, 2018, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “trustee”) to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account (“trust account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), (iv) to ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Auditor Proposal”), and (v) consideration of any other business matters properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

 

The Company is providing this first supplement to reflect that the Company will be required to deposit $500,000 into the trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in order to extend the time needed to complete a business combination for a period of three months. In addition, the Company will have the option to extend its life for one additional three month period by depositing an additional $500,000 at least ten calendar days prior to the expiration date. Both the Investment management trust agreement and the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will be amended to reflect the foregoing. The Charter Amendment is attached hereto as Annex A, and the Trust Amendment is attached hereto as Annex B.

 

Assuming that there are no redemptions, each deposit of $500,000 would result in each stockholder receiving an additional $0.0248447 per share on redemption or liquidation of the trust account (not including interest earned on such funds). Assuming the maximum number of redemptions, each deposit of $500,000 would result in each stockholder receiving an additional $1.05 on redemption or liquidation of the trust account (not including interest earned on such funds).

 

Below are proposals 2 and 3 from the original proxy statement as restated to reflect the foregoing.

 

1

 

 

PROPOSAL 2: THE CHARTER AMENDMENT

 

The proposed Charter Amendment would amend our existing charter to allow us to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) two times for an additional 90 days each time (the termination date as so extended, the “Extended Termination Date”). Initially, the Company had until December 1, 2019 to complete its initial business combination (the “Current Termination Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the proposed Charter Amendment, in order to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination, our insiders or their affiliates or designees must deposit $500,000 into the trust account for each three month extension. The initial extension payment must be made prior to the Current Termination Date, while the second extension payment must be deposited into the trust account no fewer than ten calendar days prior to the termination date. The insiders will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Such notes would be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination. We intend to issue a press release announcing the deposit of funds promptly after such funds are deposited into the trust account. All stockholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. If more than 19,648,764 shares are elected to be redeemed at the Annual Meeting, we will not effect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting. A copy of the proposed Charter Amendment is attached hereto as Annex A.

 

Reasons for the Proposed Charter Amendment

 

The Company is proposing to amend its charter to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from the Current Termination Date to the Extended Termination Date.

 

The Company is actively working to complete a “business combination” as defined under the Company’s charter, but the Company has not signed a definitive agreement and therefore will be unable to consummate a business combination by the Current Termination Date. The Charter Amendment is essential to allow the Company more time to consummate a business combination prior the Extended Termination Date. Approval of the Charter Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the Extension. The Company believes that given the Company’s expenditure of time, effort and money on sourcing and performing due diligence on potential target companies, circumstances warrant providing public stockholders an opportunity to consider the Extension and allow the Company an opportunity to consummate a business combination.

 

If the Charter Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination by the Current Termination Date, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.

 

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

 

Approval of the amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock. If your shares are held in street name, your broker, bank, custodian, or other nominee holder cannot vote your shares on this proposal, unless you direct the holder how to vote, by marking your proxy card. Broker non-votes, abstentions or the failure to vote on the Charter Amendment will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Charter Amendment.

 

The Board recommends a vote FOR the Charter Amendment.

PROPOSAL 3: THE TRUST AMENDMENT

 

The proposed Trust Amendment would amend our existing Trust Agreement to change the date by which the trustee must commence liquidating the trust to the Extended Termination Date and make other conforming amendments. Pursuant to the terms of the proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement, in order to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination, our insiders or their affiliates or designees must deposit $500,000 into the trust account for each three month extension. The initial extension payment must be made prior to the Current Termination Date, while the second extension payment must be deposited into the trust account no fewer than ten calendar days prior to the termination date. The insiders will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Such notes would be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination. We intend to issue a press release announcing the deposit of funds promptly after such funds are deposited into the trust account. All stockholders are encouraged to read the proposed amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. If more than 19,648,764 shares are elected to be redeemed at the Annual Meeting, we will not effect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting. A copy of the proposed Charter Amendment is attached hereto as Annex B.

 

Reasons for the Proposed Trust Amendment

 

The Company is proposing to amend its Trust Agreement to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account in the event the Company has not consummated a business combination by the Extended Termination Date.

 

The Trust Amendment is essential to allowing the Company more time to consummate a business combination. Approval of the Trust Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the Extension.

 

If the Trust Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination by December 1, 2019, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.

 

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

 

The affirmative vote of holders of at least 75% of the outstanding public shares is required to approve the Trust Amendment. Broker non-votes, abstentions or the failure to vote on the Trust Amendment will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Trust Amendment.

 

The Board recommends a vote FOR the Trust Amendment.
