Exhibit 99.1

 

Parabellum Acquisition Corp. To Transfer Listing to OTC Markets Group Inc.

 

Dallas, TX, January 31, 2023. Parabellum Acquisition Corp. (“Parabellum”), a special purpose acquisition company, announced today that it had been informed that the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) had, effective as of approximately 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 31, 2023, suspending trading with respect to Parabellum’s Class A common stock, redeemable warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock, and units, each consisting of one share of Class A common stock and three-quarters of one redeemable warrant (collectively, the “Parabellum Securities”), due to Parabellum’s non-compliance with Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, which requires listed acquisition companies to maintain certain average aggregate global market capitalization standards. The NYSE will apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to delist the Parabellum Securities upon completion of all applicable procedures.

 

As previously announced, Parabellum, EnOcean GmbH (“EnOcean”), EnOcean Holdings, B.V. (“Holdco”), and Artemis Merger Sub, Inc. entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated November 13, 2022 (such transaction, a “Business Combination”), pursuant to which, among other things, Holdco will acquire Parabellum and EnOcean for consideration of a combination of shares in Holdco. Upon closing of the Business Combination, Holdco is expected to list certain of the securities being delivered to Parabellum's security holders as consideration for the business combination on the NYSE, the Nasdaq Stock Market, NYSE American or other national stock exchange.

 

Additional Information

 

This communication does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. In connection with the proposed Business Combination, Holdco intends to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-4, which will include a preliminary proxy statement to be distributed to holders of Parabellum’s common stock in connection with Parabellum’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by Parabellum’s stockholders with respect to the Business Combination and other matters as described in the F-4 Registration Statement and a prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to Parabellum’s stockholders in connection with the Business Combination. After the F-4 Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, Parabellum will mail a definitive proxy statement/prospectus, when available, to its stockholders. Investors and security holders and other interested parties are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus, any amendments thereto and any other documents filed with the SEC carefully and in their entirety when they become available because they will contain important information about Parabellum, EnOcean and the Business Combination.

This Current Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding the proposed business combination and other transactions described herein and the expected timing of completion thereof, Parabellum, and Parabellum’s management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions, plans, prospects or strategies thereto and the future business plans of EnOcean and Parabellum. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report are based on Parabellum’s current expectations and beliefs of the management of Parabellum and/or EnOcean in light of their respective experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments and their potential effects on EnOcean and Parabellum as well as other factors they believe are appropriate in the circumstances. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting EnOcean or Parabellum will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the control of the parties) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed transaction, including the risk that any regulatory approvals or the SEC’s declaration of the effectiveness of the F-4 Registration Statement are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction or that the approval of the requisite equity holders of Parabellum is not obtained; the ability of Holdco to meet listing standards of the NYSE or any other national stock exchange; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to EnOcean; risks related to the rollout of EnOcean’s business and the timing of expected business milestones; the effects of competition on EnOcean’s business; the amount of redemption requests made by Parabellum’s stockholders; the ability of Parabellum or EnOcean to issue equity or equity-linked securities or obtain debt financing in connection with the proposed transaction or in the future; whether EnOcean will have sufficient capital upon the approval of the transactions to operate as anticipated. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of Parabellum’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ are discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other sections of Parabellum’s filings with the SEC, and in Parabellum’s current and periodic reports filed or furnished from time to time with the SEC. All forward-looking statements in this Current Report are made as of the date hereof, based on information available to Parabellum and/or EnOcean as of the date hereof, and Parabellum and/or EnOcean assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

 

No Offer or Solicitation

 

This Current Report shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Business Combination. This Current Report shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
