Amendment of Trust Agreement


On January 13, 2022, Broad Capital Acquisition Corp, a blank check company incorporated in the State of Delaware (the "Company"), consummated its initial public offering (the "Offering"). In connection therewith, the Company entered into an Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated January 10, 2022 (the "Trust Agreement"), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee ("Continental"). The form of the Trust Agreement was initially filed as an exhibit to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-258943) for the Offering.

On January 10, 2023, at 10:30 a.m. ET, the Company held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders at https://www.cstproxy.com/broadcapitalacquisition/2023, pursuant to due notice (the "Stockholders Meeting"). At the Stockholders Meeting, the Company's stockholders entitle to vote at the meeting cast their votes and approved a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to amend the Trust Agreement, allowing the Company to extend the Termination Date (as described in Item 5.03 below, which description is incorporated herein by reference) for an additional nine one (1) month extensions until October 13, 2023 (the "Trust Amendment"), by depositing into the Trust Account an additional $0.0625 per share for each one-month until October 13, 2023 unless the Closing of the Company's initial business combination shall have occurred.

The foregoing summary of the amendment to the Trust Agreement is qualified by the full text of the Amendment No. 1 to Investment Trust Agreement dated January 10, 2023 by and between the Company and Continental included as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation

As described in Item 5.03 below, which description is incorporated herein by reference, the stockholders of the Company approved the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company at the January 10, 2023 Stockholders Meeting, and the Company subsequently filed the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware.

Item 5.03. Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

The stockholders of the Company approved the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the "Charter Amendment") at the January 10, 2023 Stockholders Meeting, changing the structure and cost of the Company's right to extend the date (the "Termination Date") by which the Company (i) consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses, which we refer to as a "business combination," (ii) cease its operations if it fails to complete such business combination, and (iii) redeem or repurchase 100% of the Company's common stock included as part of the units sold in the Company's initial public offering that closed on January 13, 2022 (the "IPO") which is currently January 13, 2023 unless extended.

The Charter Amendment allows the Company to extend the Termination Date by up to nine (9) one-month extensions to October 13, 2023 (each of which we refer to as an "Extension", and such later date, the "Extended Deadline") provided that (i) the Sponsor (or its affiliates or permitted designees) will deposit into the Trust Account an additional $0.0625 per share for each month until October 13, 2023, unless the closing of the Company's initial business combination shall have occurred (the "Extension Payment") in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note payable upon consummation of a business combination and (ii) the procedures relating to any such extension, as set forth in the Trust Agreement, shall have been complied with. Without the Charter Amendment, the Company would have been required to obtain extensions in up to two three-month increments at a cost of $1,015,906.90 each.

Following receipt of shareholder approval of the Charter Amendment, the Company filed the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware. The foregoing summary is qualified by the full text of the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation which is included as Exhibit 3.1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.
