Tailwind International (NYSE:TWNI) announced in an 8-K filing this morning that it has signed a non-redemption agreement with several unaffiliated third parties in connection to its extension meeting.
Under the non-redemption agreement, the third parties agreed to not redeem an aggregate of 1,900,000 Class A ordinary shares of TWNI. In exchange for the foregoing commitments not to redeem the shares, Tailwind’s sponsor agreed to transfer an aggregate of 475,000 Class B ordinary shares to the third parties immediately following the completion of an initial business combination if they held the shares through the extension meeting.
