MENLO PARK, Calif. and ROCHESTER, N.Y., June 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corporation ( DCRB ), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, announced today that DCRB's definitive proxy statement ("Proxy Statement") relating to the previously announced business combination with Hyzon Motors Inc. ("Hyzon"), a leading supplier of zero-emission, hydrogen fuel cell-powered commercial vehicles, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on June 21, 2021.
DCRB is preparing to commence mailing of the Proxy Statement and a notice and voting instruction form or a proxy card relating to the special meeting of the DCRB stockholders (the "Special Meeting") to DCRB stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 1, 2021, who will be entitled to attend and participate in the Special Meeting.
The Special Meeting to approve the pending business combination and related matters is scheduled to be held on July 15, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The Special Meeting will be conducted completely virtually, and can be accessed via live webcast at https://www.cstproxy.com/decarbonizationplusacquisition/sm2021.
If the proposals at the Special Meeting are approved, the parties anticipate that the business combination will close and the trading of the combined entity will commence on NASDAQ shortly thereafter, subject to the satisfaction or waiver, as applicable, of all other closing conditions.
The DCRB Board of Directors believes the proposed business combination is in the best interests of DCRB and its stockholders, and recommends that DCRB stockholders vote "FOR" the adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of February 8, 2021, by and among DCRB, DCRB Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of DCRB, and Hyzon, as well as all other proposals included in DCRB's Proxy Statement.
Every stockholder's vote is important, regardless of the number of shares held. Accordingly, DCRB requests that each stockholder complete, sign, date and return a proxy card (online or by mail) as soon as possible and by no later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on July 15, 2021, to ensure that the stockholder's shares will be represented at the Special Meeting. Stockholders that hold shares in "street name" (i.e. those stockholders whose shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee) should contact their broker, bank or nominee to provide instructions on how to vote their shares and ensure that their shares are voted.
If any individual DCRB stockholder does not receive the Proxy Statement, such stockholder should (i) confirm their Proxy Statement's status with their broker, (ii) contact Morrow Sodali LLC, DCRB's proxy solicitor, for assistance via e-mail at DCRB.info@investor.morrowsodali.com or toll-free call at (800) 662-5200. Banks and brokers can place a collect call to Morrow Sodali at (203) 658-9400, or (iii) contact DCRB at 2744 Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park, California, 94025.
DCRB expects to provide stockholders with additional information on how stockholders may vote their shares held in "street name" on its website in the coming days, and DCRB expects to publish a subsequent press release once the website is live.
