Jensyn Acquisition Corp. announced tonight they have terminated their agreement with Oneness Global due to a breach of representations and warranties by Oneness Global. Jensyn has further demanded to be paid the $2,500,000 termination fee provided for in the Share Exchange Agreement.
This is a tough break for Jensyn, which IPO’d back in March of 2016 with $40.4 million in trust. Current funds in trust have been reduced to approximately $8 million, after five separate completion deadline extensions where shareholders have had the opportunity to redeem their shares.
Jensyn still has until January 3rd, 2019 to pull off a business combination, but this has to be tough and more than a little disappointing. They still have a little less than three months left on the clock, but finding and closing a deal is going to be incredibly difficult.
The current pro rata per share redemption price is estimated to be $10.89 per share.

Back in December 2022, Newbury Street (NASDAQ:NBST) announced a $1.85 billion combination with...
At the SPAC of Dawn Tucked into the bill that provides $95 billion in funding to American allies passed by the House this weekend is another measure that is likely to have far more impact on at least one pending deal in SPAC world. It would appear that the timing was fortuitous for TikTok rival...
With the passage this weekend of $95 billion in funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan by the House of Representatives, some focus has gone back towards the defense sector, which has generally had a good year as a whole. But, SPACs have not been as active in defense, despite the fact that companies in the...
