In connection with the proposed business combination among Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Benessere”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), eCombustible Energy LLC (“eCombustible”), BCAC Holdings, Inc. (“BCAC Holdings”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and which we refer to as the “Business Combination,” BCAC Holdings has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-262669) (the “Registration Statement”). This Registration Statement includes a document that serves as a preliminary prospectus of BCAC Holdings and a preliminary proxy statement of Benessere, and is referred to as a proxy statement/prospectus. The Registration Statement has not yet become effective. Following the Registration Statement having been declared effective by the SEC, a final prospectus/definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents will be mailed to Benessere’s stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed Business Combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a substitute for the Registration Statement, the final prospectus/definitive proxy statement or any other document that BCAC Holdings has or will file with the SEC, or that Benessere has or will file with the SEC or send to its stockholders, in connection with the proposed Business Combination. Before making any voting or investment decision, investors and security holders of Benessere, eCombustible and BCAC Holdings are advised to read the Registration Statement, all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed Business Combination, because these documents will contain important information about the proposed Business Combination and the parties to the proposed Business Combination. Investors, security holders and other interested persons will also be able to obtain copies of the Registration Statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by BCAC Holdings or Benessere, free of charge, through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: Patrick Orlando, Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp., 78 SW 7th Street, Unit 800, Miami, Florida 33130.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including (without limitation) statements regarding the anticipated timing of the Business Combination (as defined below) and the potential benefits and attributes of eCombustible’s solution and technology. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Benessere’s securities, (ii) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed by Benessere’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, including the approval of the merger agreement by the stockholders of Benessere, (iv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement, (v) redemptions exceeding a maximum threshold or the failure to meet The Nasdaq Stock Market’s initial listing standards in connection with the consummation of the contemplated transactions, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Business Combination on eCombustible’s business relationships, operating results, prospects and business generally, (vii) risks that the proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of eCombustible, (viii) the outcome of regulatory investigations or any legal proceedings that may be instituted against eCombustible or against Benessere related to the merger agreement or the proposed Business Combination, (ix) changes in the energy markets in which eCombustible competes, including with respect to its competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes, (x) changes in domestic and global general economic conditions, (xi) the risk that eCombustible is not able to recognize revenue for its products or secure additional contracts that generate revenue, (xii) risk that eCombustible may not be able to execute its growth strategies; (xiii) risks related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and response, (xiv) risk that eCombustible may not be able to develop and maintain effective internal controls, (xv) costs related to the Business Combination and the failure to realize anticipated benefits of the Business Combination or to realize estimated pro forma results and underlying assumptions, including with respect to estimated stockholder redemptions, (xvi) risks related to competition in the markets in which eCombustible intends to compete, (xvii) risks related to the early stage of eCombustible’s business, and (xviii) and those factors discussed in Benessere’s filings with the SEC and that that will be contained in the Registration Statement relating to the proposed Business Combination. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that will be described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement and other documents to be filed by Benessere from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and while Benessere and eCombustible may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Neither of Benessere or eCombustible gives any assurance that Benessere or eCombustible, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
Participants in the Solicitation
Benessere, eCombustible, BCAC Holdings, and certain of their respective directors and officer, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the eventual solicitation of proxies of Benessere’s stockholders in connection with the proposed Business Combination. Information concerning the interests of Benessere’s, eCombustible’s and BCAC Holdings’ participants in the solicitation, which may, in some cases, be different than the interests of Benessere’s, eCombustible’s and BCAC Holdings’ stockholders and equity holders generally, is set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus contained in the Registration Statement relating to the Business Combination.
Prospective investors and security holders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names and interests in the proposed Business Combination of such individuals in BCAC Holdings’ filings with the SEC, including the Registration Statement, and Benessere’s filings with the SEC, including its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2022. To the extent that holdings of Benessere’s securities have changed since the amounts in Benessere’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, such changes have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Such information will also be contained in the final prospectus/definitive proxy statement when available. You may obtain free copies of these documents from the sources indicated in the first paragraph above.
No Offer or Solicitation
This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute (i) a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed Business Combination or (ii) an offer to sell, a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a recommendation to buy any security of eCombustible, Benessere, BCAC Holdings or any of their respective affiliates. There shall not be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the laws of any such jurisdiction.
Item 8.01. | Other Events |
As previously disclosed in Benessere’s Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on June 8, 2022, Benessere recently received a subpoena from the SEC seeking various documents regarding, among other things, meetings of our Board of Directors; communications with and the evaluation of potential targets, including eCombustible; information relating to eCombustible; and agreements with certain advisors and affiliates. In connection with the foregoing investigation, the SEC has issued an order of examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Securities Act with respect to BCAC Holdings ’s Registration Statement relating to the Business Combination, and a further subpoena to each of Benessere and BCAC Holdings in support thereof. Those subpoenas seek additional documents and information with respect to, among other things, our diligence efforts in examining potential targets other than eCombustible, our communications with respect thereto, and relationships between and among certain of BCAC Holdings and our officers and directors, on the one hand, and other entities (including our Sponsor and the underwriter of our initial public offering) on the other. On June 16, 2022, certain directors of Benessere were issued subpoenas by a federal grand jury sitting in the Southern District of New York in connection with an investigation involving Digital World Acquisition Corp. These subpoenas, and the underlying investigations by the Department of Justice and the SEC, can be expected to delay effectiveness of the Registration Statement, which could materially delay, materially impede, or prevent the consummation of the Business Combination. Additionally, any resolution of the investigation could result in the imposition of significant penalties, injunctions, prohibitions on the conduct of our business, damage to our reputation and other sanctions against us.
