New York, New York, April 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alberton Acquisition Corp. (“Alberton”) (NASDAQ: ALAC) announced that it changed the record date for issuance of 1,414,480 dividend warrants to the holders of public ordinary shares and/or public units from April 21, 2020 to April 22, 2020.

On April 20, 2020, Alberton announced that it had agreed that if the April 2020 extension was approved, it would issue, with respect to each public share or public unit (with respect of the underlying public share) that is not redeemed in connection with April 2020 extension, one dividend warrant to purchase one-half of one ordinary share.  The dividend warrants are identical to the warrants included in the units sold in Alberton’s initial public offering.

In connection with the April 2020 extension, the Company received redemption request in the aggregated amount of 10,073,512 shares by April 21, 2020, the cut-off date for shareholders to submit their redemption request. Accordingly, 10,073,512 public shares were redeemed, resulting in a total of 1,414,480 remaining public shares issued and outstanding including public shares underlying public units. With the change of the record date, the holders of public ordinary shares and/or pubic units who did not redeem in connection with April 2020 extension but sold their positions, if any, on April 21, 2020 are no longer eligible to receive the dividend warrants. The Company expects payment of such dividend warrants be made on April 8, 2021.
