Introductory Note.

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Gesher I Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“Gesher”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 6, 2022, Gesher entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2022 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), with Freightos Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“Freightos”), Freightos Merger Sub I, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos (“Merger Sub I”), and Freightos Merger Sub II, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos (“Merger Sub II”), pursuant to which, among other transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub I merged with and into Gesher (the “First Merger”), with Gesher surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos, and (ii) Gesher merged with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos (collectively, the “Business Combination”). On January 25, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the parties to the Business Combination Agreement consummated the Business Combination (the “Closing”).

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, immediately prior to the First Merger, Freightos effected its previously disclosed recapitalization of its outstanding equity securities (the “Recapitalization”) pursuant to which (i) each outstanding preferred share of Freightos, par value $0.00001 per share, was converted into ordinary shares of Freightos, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Freightos Ordinary Shares”), and (ii) immediately following such conversion (but prior to the effectiveness of the First Merger), each outstanding Freightos Ordinary Share was converted into such number of Freightos Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing 39,000,000 by the sum of the (a) number of Freightos Ordinary Shares then issued and outstanding and (b) the number of Freightos Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of options to purchase Freightos Ordinary Shares which either have vested prior to such time or that are to vest pursuant to their terms on or prior to September 30, 2022. Following the Recapitalization (but prior to the effectiveness of the First Merger), each Freightos Ordinary Share was valued at $10.00 per share based on a $390,000,000 valuation.

 

At the Closing, among other things, (i) each ordinary share of Gesher, par value $0.0001 per share (each, a “Gesher Ordinary Share”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger (and after giving effect to the previously disclosed separation of the units of Gesher (“Gesher Units”) and any redemptions), was automatically converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive one Freightos Ordinary Share and (ii) each issued and outstanding warrant of Gesher (each, a “Gesher Warrant” and, together with the Gesher Ordinary Shares and the Gesher Units, the “Gesher Securities”) was assumed by Freightos and converted into a corresponding warrant exercisable for Freightos Ordinary Shares subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Gesher Warrants (each, a “Freightos Warrant”).

 

As previously disclosed, Gesher entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement, dated March 23, 2022 (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”), with M&G (ACS) Japan Equity Fund, as managed by M&G Investment Limited, and as subsequently assigned in part on October 3, 2022 to The Prudential Assurance Company Limited, an affiliate of M&G Investment Limited (collectively, the “Forward Purchaser”), a Backstop Subscription Agreement, dated April 14, 2022 (the “Backstop Agreement”), with Composite Analysis Group, Inc., and as subsequently assigned on January 21, 2023 to Joseph Lipsey, III (collectively, the “Backstop Investor”), and a PIPE Subscription Agreement, dated May 31, 2022, with Freightos and Alshaffafia Trading W.L.L (the “PIPE Investor” and together with the Forward Purchaser and the Backstop Investor, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Investors agreed to provide additional committed capital in exchange for Gesher Ordinary Shares and Gesher Warrants, in the case of the Forward Purchaser and the Backstop Investor, and for Freightos Ordinary Shares, in the case of the PIPE Investor. Immediately prior to the consummation of the First Merger, Gesher’s rights and obligations pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement and the Backstop Agreement were assigned to Freightos. A total of $70 million was provided by the Investors in exchange for 7 million Freightos Ordinary Shares and 2.6 million Freightos Warrants.

 

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Business Combination and related agreements are further described in Gesher’s definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed with the SEC on December 28, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”). The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Business Combination Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Gesher’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 6, 2022, and is incorporated by reference herein.

Pursuant to the Amended Warrant Agreement, each Gesher Warrant exercisable for Gesher Ordinary Shares under the Existing Warrant Agreement was converted into a corresponding Freightos Warrant exercisable for Freightos Ordinary Shares.

Gesher requested that Nasdaq delist the Gesher Securities prior to the opening of trading on January 26, 2023 and, as a result, Nasdaq halted trading of Gesher’s securities at market close on January 25, 2023 and filed a notification of removal from listing and registration on Form 25, thereby commencing the process of delisting the Gesher’s Units, Gesher Ordinary Shares and Gesher Warrants from Nasdaq and deregistering the securities under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

On January 25, 2023, Gesher held an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which holders of 12,537,449 Gesher Ordinary Shares were present in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum for the transaction of business. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 21, 2022, the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting, were entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. As of the record date, 14,575,000 Gesher Ordinary Shares were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. The proposals listed below are described in more detail in the Proxy Statement. A summary of the final voting results at the Extraordinary General Meeting is set forth below:

 

Proposal 1 - The Business Combination Proposal

 

Gesher’s shareholders approved Proposal 1, which required the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the Gesher Ordinary Shares who, being present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary General Meeting, voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Proposal 1 received the following votes:

 

For   Against   Abstain
11,819,340   718,099   10

 

Proposal 2 - The Merger Proposal

 

Gesher’s shareholders approved Proposal 2, which required the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by the holders of the Gesher Ordinary Shares who, being present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary General Meeting, voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Proposal 2 received the following votes:

 

For   Against   Abstain
11,819,339   718,100   10

 

Proposal 3 - The Charter Proposals

 

Gesher’s shareholders approved Proposal 3, which required the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by the holders of the Gesher Ordinary Shares who, being present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary General Meeting, voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Proposal 3 received the following votes:

 

For   Against   Abstain
11,819,340   718,099   10

  

As there were sufficient votes at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve each of the above proposals, the “Adjournment Proposal” described in the Proxy Statement was not presented to the shareholders.

 

 C: 

 

Shareholders holding an aggregate of 10,287,844 Gesher Ordinary Shares exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from Gesher’s initial public offering, calculated as of one (1) business day prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, which was $10.26 per share, or $105,569,819.30 in the aggregate that was redeemed. The remaining amount in the trust account was used to fund certain expenses incurred by Gesher and Freightos in connection with the Business Combination, after payment of deferred underwriting commissions in connection with Gesher’s initial public offering, and will be used for general corporate purposes of Freightos following the Business Combination.

 

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the Freightos Ordinary Shares and Freightos Warrants will begin trading on Nasdaq under the symbols “CRGO” and “CRGOW,” respectively.
