Bulldog Investors Provides Information to Shareholders On July 28, 2026, Bulldog Investors, LLP stated that, according to the Dynamix Corporation had 16.6 million Class A shares and 5,533,333 Class B shares outstanding, and highlighted that the Company received a $50 million termination fee in connection with the termination of the business combination agreement with The Ether Machine, Inc., and estimated that, assuming no extraordinary expenses have been or will be properly incurred, the company’s net assets should be at least $45 million. In addition, Bulldog Investors argued that if the Company fails to complete a business combination by November 22, 2026, the board would face 2 options that the equitable Option, which would distribute substantially all net cash outside the trust account to all stockholders before redemption of the Class A shares, or the self-serving Option, which would refuse such a distribution and result in the net cash being held solely for the benefit of the Class B stockholders. Further, Bulldog Investors stated that each director owns Class B shares and is therefore conflicted with regard to these options, and cited Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which requires directors to promote honest and ethical conduct, protect company assets, avoid conflicts of interest, and refrain from using corporate property, information, or position for personal gain, and Bulldog Investors further asserted that the prospectus did not disclose that the company would not intend to make distributions prior to the redemption of Class A shares in the event of a termination payment and no business combination, and argued that the Equitable Option is consistent with the Code of Conduct and fiduciary duty, whereas the Self-serving Option could constitute a breach of fiduciary duty. Furthermore, bulldog Investors noted that similar cases involving termination fees received by SPACs have resulted in settlements and expressed a preference to avoid litigation and related legal expenses by engaging in discussions with the board to resolve the matter.
