I was employed by Nomura Securities International, Inc. (‘Nomura’) from May 2021 until August 2023. During that time, Nomura was engaged by SPAC Recovery Co. (f/k/a Ackrell SPAC Partners I Co.) (‘SPAC’) to act as its financial advisor and placement agent. In December 2021, SPAC announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire Blackstone Products (‘Blackstone’). That agreement was terminated by Blackstone in August 2022. In its complaint, SPAC has alleged, among other things, that I (along with other defendants) (i) aided and abetted a breach of fiduciary duties by the chairman of SPAC’s board of directors and (ii) intentionally interfered with certain agreements that SPAC had entered into with the transaction parties.
