On December 9, 2022, Lerer Hippeau Acquisition Corp. (“LHAA” or the “Company”) announced that in accordance with the previously announced December 14, 2022 termination date set by its Board of Directors pursuant to an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) which was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on December 7, 2022, the Company expects to redeem all outstanding public shares of the Company on or about December 14, 2022, and in any event by December 28, 2022, following which the Company will be dissolved, liquidated and wound up.
The Company has also requested the Nasdaq Stock Market to suspend trading of its Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) effective before the opening of trading on December 14, 2022 and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission the forms necessary to delist the Company’s Class A Common Stock.
Pursuant to the Charter, the public shares of Class A Common Stock will be redeemed at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (net of taxes payable and $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses, which have already been withdrawn) (the “Redemption Amount”), by (B) the total number of then outstanding public shares of Class A Common Stock. The redemption will completely extinguish rights of holders of public shares of Class A Common Stock.
Following the redemptions in connection with the approval and implementation of the Charter Amendment and after taking into account withdrawals for taxes and dissolution expenses, the total amount held in the trust account was approximately $1,201,718.46, and a total of 119,083 public shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding. The Company estimates that the total Redemption Amount will be approximately $1,201,718.46, and the per-share Redemption Amount will be approximately $10.09.
