Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 Approves Business Combination; Forward Purchase Deal
What Happened Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 (HYAC) filed an 8-K reporting that shareholders and warrantholders approved the proposed business combination with Suncrete (via PubCo) at meetings held April 2, 2026. Haymaker also disclosed two material agreements: a Non‑Redemption Agreement dated April 1, 2026 under which an investor agreed to rescind redemption of 250,000 Class A shares and waive redemption rights in exchange for a cash payment tied to the excess of the redemption price over $10.75 per share; and a Forward Purchase Agreement dated April 6, 2026 with four Harraden Circle funds to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares in a prepaid share‑forward structure, with prepayment to come from Haymaker’s trust account and various termination, maturity and extension mechanics described in the agreement. PubCo and Suncrete also filed a registration statement on Form S‑4 containing the definitive proxy statement/prospectus for the transaction.
Key Details
- Shareholder Meeting (April 2, 2026): quorum 21,622,101 shares present; Business Combination vote: 20,588,978 For, 1,033,123 Against.
- Non‑Redemption Agreement (April 1, 2026): investor reversed redemption of 250,000 Class A shares; payment = (redemption price − $10.75) × 250,000.
- Forward Purchase Agreement (April 6, 2026): Harraden funds agreed to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares; prepayment equals number of shares × per‑share redemption price at closing; Seller waived redemption rights during the term.
- Warrantholder Meeting (April 2, 2026): 9,049,966 warrants present; warrant amendment approved (8,487,983 For, 482,361 Against, 79,622 Abstentions).
Why It Matters The shareholder and warrantholder approvals and the disclosed agreements clear key steps toward closing the business combination with Suncrete and help secure financing/support for the deal. The forward purchase provides up to 5 million shares of prepaid financing (with funds drawn from the trust at closing), and the non‑redemption agreement reduces immediate redemptions by a named investor—both can affect the cash available at closing and the post‑closing public float. Investors should review the S‑4/proxy statement and the full agreements for details on timing, cash impact, dilution, and conditions to closing.
