DHC Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ:DHCA) announced in an 8-K this morning that it has come to agreements with one or more investors to not redeem 400,000 shares.
If these investors still hold these shares through the SPAC’s March 3 extension vote, they will receive 150,000 promote shares (1.9%) once DHC has consummated a business combination.
