AlTi Global, Inc. ("AlTi," "we" or the "company") (NASDAQ: ALTI), a leading independent global wealth and asset manager, today announced the expiration and results of its previously announced exchange offer (the "Offer") and consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation") relating to its outstanding warrants, consisting of: (i) the warrants sold as part of the units in the initial public offering of Cartesian Growth Corporation, a special purpose acquisition corporation with whom AlTi completed a business combination in January 2023 (the "IPO") whether they were purchased in the IPO or thereafter in the open market (the "Public Warrants") and (ii) the warrants sold as part of the units in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the IPO (the "Private Warrants" and, together with the Public Warrants, the "Warrants"). The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on June 2, 2023. The company expects to accept all validly tendered Warrants for exchange and settlement on or before June 7, 2023, following the expiration of the deadline for the Warrants tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery on June 6, 2023. With the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, AlTi will be able to exercise its rights under the warrant amendment and eliminate all of its Warrants, simplify the company's capital structure and reduce any future dilutive impact of the Warrants.
The company has been advised that 10,719,843 Public Warrants (including 59,910 Public Warrants tendered through guaranteed delivery), or approximately 97.5% of the outstanding Public Warrants, and 8,745,658 Private Warrants, or 98.3% of the outstanding Private Warrants, were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. Holders of the Warrants that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer and Consent Solicitation will receive 0.25 shares of Class A Common Stock of the company, $0.0001 par value per share ("Class A Common Stock"), in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the Offer.
In addition, pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, the company received the approval of holders of approximately 97.5% of the outstanding Public Warrants and the holder of approximately 98.3% of the outstanding Private Warrants to amend the warrant agreement that governs the Warrants (the "Warrant Amendment"), which exceed the 65% required for Public Warrants and Private Warrants, respectively, to effect the Warrant Amendment. The company expects to execute the Warrant Amendment concurrently with the settlement of the Offer, and thereafter, expects to exercise its right in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Amendment, to acquire and retire all remaining untendered Warrants in exchange for Class A Common Stock at an exchange ratio of 0.225 shares of Class A Common Stock for each Warrant, following which, no Public Warrants or Private Warrants will remain outstanding.
Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. was the Dealer Manager for the Offer and Consent Solicitation. Innisfree M&A Incorporated served as the Information Agent for the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company served as the Exchange Agent.
