Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, Horizon Acquisition Corporation II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Horizon”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), dated as of October 11, 2022, among the Company, OTH Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Horizon, Flexjet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Flexjet”), Flexjet Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Flexjet, and Epic Aero, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Epic”). Epic Fairgrave, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Epic Fairgrave”), became a party to the BCA by joinder dated February 21, 2023.

On April 11, 2023, pursuant to Section 10.1 of the BCA, Horizon, Epic, and Epic Fairgrave entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) to terminate the BCA and abandon the transactions contemplated by the BCA (together, the “Termination”). The Termination Agreement also terminates and makes void the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the BCA). Additionally, the Termination Agreement provides for a mutual release of claims among the parties and their affiliates.

As a result of the Termination, the BCA is of no further force and effect, with the exception of specified provisions in Section 10.2 of the BCA and the confidentiality provisions of the Ancillary Agreements, each of which shall survive the termination of the BCA and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.

As a condition to the effectiveness of the Termination and the other matters contemplated by the Termination Agreement, Epic is required to pay Horizon a termination payment (the “Termination Payment”) of $30,059,000. The Termination Payment must be paid no later than five business days after the execution of the Termination Agreement. The Termination and the other transactions contemplated by the Termination Agreement are effective upon the Company’s receipt of the Termination Payment. If the Termination Payment is not paid within five business days, Horizon has the right to terminate the Termination Agreement. If Horizon elects to terminate the Termination Agreement, the Termination and other transactions contemplated by the Termination Agreement shall not occur, and the BCA and each Ancillary Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

The foregoing descriptions of the BCA, the Termination Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of, respectively, (i) the BCA, a copy of which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Horizon’s Current Report on Form 8-K on October 11, 2022, (ii) the Termination Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein and (iii) the Ancillary Agreements, copies of which were previously filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 to Horizon’s Current Report on Form 8-K on October 11, 2022.

Item 1.02. Termination of Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 11, 2023, Horizon issued a press release announcing the termination of the BCA and Horizon’s intent to promptly liquidate Horizon following receipt of the Termination Payment. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
