Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

 

Following the purported notice described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 1, 2023, by letter dated May 3, 2023, Cohen & Company sent Appreciate Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) a Notice of Default and Early Termination and Notice of Settlement Amount that purports to provide notice of the occurrence of an event of default under the Confirmation Re: OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction dated November 29, 2022.  The notice states, among other things, that the notice is premised on the Company’s failure to pay amounts due as a result of the previously reported VWAP Trigger Event Notice.  The amount of the maturity consideration demanded is described in the May 1, 2023 Form 8-K. Cohen has also demanded reimbursement of a portion of their out of pocket costs. The full text of the purported notice, and notice of settlement amount, is set out in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
