Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously disclosed, the stockholders of Leisure Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) approved an amendment to the Company’s investment management trust agreement, dated December 1, 2017, by and between the Company and the Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “IMTA Amendment”), to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the trust account (“Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering in the event the Company has not consummated a business combination from December 5, 2019 to April 5, 2020 (the “Extended Date”). On December 5, 2019, the Company entered into the IMTA Amendment.
On December 5, 2019, the Company entered into an expense advancement agreement (the “Expense Advance Agreement”) with a potential business combination target (“Potential Target”) with whom discussions are ongoing. Pursuant to the Expense Advance Agreement, the Potential Target committed to provide $566,287.53 to fund contributions to the Trust Account. The Company drew down the full amount under the Expense Advance Agreement to fund the required contribution to the Trust Account for the period December 6, 2019 to January 5, 2020 by issuing an unsecured promissory note to the Potential Target. The note does not bear interest. If the Company completes an initial business combination, the Company would repay amounts borrowed under the Expense Advance Agreement out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, amounts borrowed under the Expense Advance Agreement would be repaid only out of funds held by the Company outside the Trust Account.
Amounts borrowed pursuant to the Expense Advance Agreement were deposited to the Trust Account on December 6, 2019.
The foregoing is only a summary of the IMTA Amendment and the Expense Advance Agreement and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the respective underlying agreements. Such agreements will be filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. |
As previously disclosed, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from December 5, 2019 to the Extended Date. On December 5, 2019, the Company filed the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
A copy of the Charter Amendment is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
