Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously announced in the Current Report on Form 8-K by the Company on February 20, 2024, the Company entered into a business combination agreement with Acri Capital Merger Sub I Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the Company (“PubCo”), Acri Capital Merger Sub II Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the PubCo (“Merger Sub”), and Foxx Development Inc., a Texas corporation (“Foxx”), on February 18, 2024, where, pursuant to the agreement: (a) the Company will merge (the “Reincorporation Merger”) with and into PubCo, with PubCo as the surviving entity; (b) Foxx will merge (the “Acquisition Merger”) with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo.
On February 23, 2024, Acri Capital Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) entered into that certain Amendment (the “UA Amendment”) to the Underwriting Agreement, dated June 9, 2022 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with EF Hutton LLC (f/k/a EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, the “EF Hutton”).
Pursuant to the terms of the UA Amendment, EF Hutton and the Company have agreed to amend the Underwriting Agreement to replace the existing deferred underwriting fee under the Underwriting Agreement from $2,587,500 payable in cash at the closing of a business combination, to (x) $1,725,000 payable in cash and (y) 43,125 shares of common stock of PubCo. to be issued, at the closing of the Acquisition Merger.
The foregoing description of the UA Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated herein by reference.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Report includes forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and may be accompanied by words that convey projected future events or outcomes, such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “design,” “intend,” “expect,” “could,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “seek,” “target,” “aim,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “should,” “would,” or variations of such words or by expressions of similar meaning. Such forward-looking statements, including statements regarding anticipated financial and operational results, projections of market opportunity and expectations, the estimated post-transaction enterprise value, the advantages and expected growth of PubCo, the cash position of PubCo following closing, the ability of ACAC, PubCo or Foxx to consummate the proposed business combination and the timing of such consummation, are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the final prospectus filed with the SEC on June 10, 2022 (the “IPO Prospectus”), the Registration Statement on Form S-4 to be filed by PubCo, which will include a proxy statement containing information about the proposed transaction and the respective businesses of Foxx and ACAC, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of PubCo’s securities to be issued to Foxx Stockholders in connection with the completion of the proposed transaction (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), and in other documents filed by ACAC or PubCo with the SEC from time to time. Important factors that could cause PubCo’s actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include: Foxx’s or Pubco’s limited operating history; the ability of Foxx or PubCo to identify and integrate acquisitions; general economic and market conditions impacting demand for the products and services of Foxx or PubCo; the inability to complete the proposed Business Combination; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, the amount of cash available following any redemptions by ACAC stockholders; the ability to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards following the consummation of the proposed Business Combination; costs related to the proposed Business Combination; and such other risks and uncertainties as are discussed in the IPO Prospectus and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Other factors include the possibility that the proposed Business Combination does not close, including due to the failure to receive required security holder approvals, or the failure of other closing conditions.
ACAC, PubCo and Foxx each expressly disclaim any obligations or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the expectations of ACAC, PubCo or Foxx with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based, except as required by law.

The proposed transaction has been approved by the boards of directors of ACAC, PubCo and Foxx, and will be submitted to stockholders of ACAC and the stockholders of Foxx for their approval. In connection with such approval, PNAI intends to file with the SEC the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. After the Registration Statement that forms a part of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus has been declared effective, ACAC will mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its stockholders as of the record date established for voting on the proposed transaction. ACAC stockholders are urged to read, once available, the preliminary Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any amendments thereto and the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus in connection with the proposed transaction, as these materials will contain important information about ACAC, PubCo, Foxx and the proposed Business Combination. ACAC stockholders will also be able to obtain a free copy of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as well as other filings containing information about ACAC, without charge, at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).

ACAC, PubCo, Foxx and their respective directors and executive officers and other persons may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from ACAC stockholders with respect to the proposed Business Combination.

No Offer or Solicitation
This Report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
