Crown PropTech Acquisitions (CPTKW) entered into an amended and restated Business Combination Agreement with Mkango Rare Earths Limited and related entities, replacing the prior agreement and consolidating earlier amendments, including clarifying the sequence of the Share Adjustment, Mkango BVI Share Reclassification, and issuance of Consideration Shares and Advisor Compensation Shares.
The sponsor support arrangements were modified through Amendment No. 1 to the Sponsor Support Agreement to reflect Mkango Rare Earths Limited’s name change, remove certain affiliates, refine which founder shares held by CIIG Management III LLC may be placed in escrow, and add that the Sponsor Support Agreement will terminate at Closing if Available Gross SPAC Cash is at least $10,000,000 immediately prior to Closing.
The form of Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement was revised to shorten the NRA investors’ lock-up from the original CPTK NRA Lock-Up Period to a 180-day MKAR NRA Lock-Up Period, to specify that PubCo Consideration Shares are registrable and not subject to a contractual lock-up, and to provide CIIG Management with PubCo securities as liquidated damages if the registration statement is not filed within specified time periods.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions and CIIG Management also entered into eight BCA Vote Non-Redemption Agreements with funds and accounts managed by BlackRock subsidiaries, under which investors agreed not to redeem 400,000 public shares, supporting retention of at least $4.8 million in the trust account and contributing toward the $5,000,000 Minimum Cash Condition; related “most-favored nation” arrangements make at least 1,754,161 additional founder shares eligible for the shortened lock-up.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions furnished an investor presentation and regulatory disclosures related to its proposed business combination with Mkango Rare Earths Limited. The companies plan meetings with investors and are contemplating private capital raises using equity, equity-linked, convertible or debt securities in exempt transactions.
The presentation outlines a vertically integrated rare earth platform and provides detailed mineral reserve and resource estimates for the Songwe rare earth project, including proved and probable reserves and measured, indicated and inferred resources prepared under S-K 1300 and NI 43-101 standards. A Form F-4 registration statement with a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus has been filed, and shareholders will receive definitive materials after SEC effectiveness.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions entered into Amendment No. 2 to its Business Combination Agreement with Mkango Rare Earths Limited (MKAR). The amendment adjusts the Exchange Ratio, clarifies share issuances before closing, and requires settlement of intercompany debt via a debt‑to‑equity exchange as a closing condition.
The parties also revised the form of the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement to update definitions, allow the Selling Shareholder to include an allotted number of its shares in future registered offerings, and exempt certain transferred SPAC Class B shares from some lock-up restrictions. Separately, MKAR publicly filed a Form F-4 registration statement containing the proxy statement/prospectus for the proposed business combination, with MKAR’s shares and warrants expected to list on Nasdaq under “MKAR” and “MKARW” after closing, subject to approvals and customary conditions.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions obtained shareholder approval to amend its charter and extend the deadline to complete its initial business combination from March 11, 2026 to March 11, 2027. This allows the SPAC another year to find and close a merger or, failing that, wind up and redeem shares.
At the Extraordinary General Meeting, 7,391,806 ordinary shares were entitled to vote and 88.1% were represented, with 6,513,442 votes in favor of the extension and none against. In connection with the meeting, holders of 7,984 Class A shares redeemed at about $11.84 per share, leaving roughly $5.7 million in the trust account and 483,822 Class A shares outstanding. The company also entered non-redemption agreements covering 461,146 Class A shares.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions entered into non-redemption agreements with certain investors and its co-sponsor CIIG Management III LLC ahead of an Extraordinary General Meeting on March 9, 2026. Shareholders are being asked to extend the deadline to complete an initial business combination from March 11, 2026 to March 11, 2027.
Under these agreements, investors who agree not to redeem specified public shares will receive an assignment of one Class B ordinary share for each 40 public shares not redeemed, accruing monthly starting April 11, 2026 until a business combination is completed. The company states it will keep trust account funds in short-maturity U.S. government securities, qualifying money market funds, or other permitted interest-bearing accounts, and confirms it will not use trust funds to pay any potential excise taxes on redemptions, including in a liquidation scenario.
Crown PropTech Acquisitions updated investors on progress toward its proposed business combination with Mkango Rare Earths Limited’s subsidiary MKAR. The parties signed Amendment No. 1 to their Business Combination Agreement, refining the pre-closing reorganization so MKAR will own the Songwe Hill rare earth project in Malawi and the planned separation plant in Pulawy, Poland. The amendment also extends the outside date for closing from March 11, 2026 to September 30, 2026, with an automatic extension to December 31, 2026 if the Form F‑4 proxy/registration statement is not declared effective by August 14, 2026.
The company further amended its non‑interest‑bearing promissory note with former CEO Richard Chera, pushing the maturity tied to a potential liquidation or business combination out to December 31, 2026. In connection with this Third Amended and Restated Note, CIIG Management III LLC agreed to transfer additional CPTK Class B ordinary shares to an unaffiliated third party, calculated at 2,500 shares per month from February 2026 until a business combination closes. Separately, CIIG Management III LLC funded the remaining $250,000 under a previously disclosed $750,000 Note Purchase Agreement with MKAR, receiving a convertible promissory note from MKAR on February 13, 2026.
Crown and MKAR also announced that MKAR confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form F‑4 to the SEC on February 13, 2026. This filing will include a proxy statement for Crown’s shareholders and a prospectus for MKAR’s common shares and warrants, which are expected to list on Nasdaq under the symbols “MKAR” and “MKARW” upon closing, subject to SEC review, shareholder approvals and other customary conditions. The press release notes that Crown currently has approximately $5.79 million of cash in trust.
