On September 6, 2019, TKK Symphony Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: TKKSU) (“TKK Symphony”), a special purpose acquisition company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, announced the execution of a definitive share exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which TKK Symphony will acquire Glory Star New Media Group Limited (“Glory Star”), a leading mobile and online digital media and entertainment company in the Peoples’ Republic of China. Following the consummation of the business combination, the continuing company will operate under the name of Glory Star New Media Group Holdings Limited.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the shareholders of Glory Star will sell 100% of the outstanding equity interests to TKK Symphony in exchange for TKK Symphony shares valued at $425 million (with each TKK Symphony share valued at the redemption price per share paid to TKK Symphony public shareholders who elect to have their shares redeemed in connection with the business combination), subject to some of such shares being held in escrow to support certain indemnification arrangements under the Exchange Agreement, plus the contingent right to earn up to an additional 10 million TKK Symphony shares as earnout shares. All amounts remaining in TKK Symphony’s trust account at the closing of the business combination, following redemptions and payment of TKK Symphony transaction expenses and other liabilities, are expected to be used for Glory Star’s growth.
