Amendment
No. 6 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Filed
June 15, 2023
File
No. 333-268716
Dear
Ladies and Gentlemen,
On
behalf of our client, Energem Corp. (the “Company” or “Energem”), we hereby provide a response to the comments
issued in a letter by the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”)
dated June 26, 2023 (the “Letter”), with respect to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration
Statement”). Contemporaneously, we are filing Amendment No. 7 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 7”) via
EDGAR.
In
order to facilitate the review by the Staff of Amendment No. 6, we have responded, on behalf of the Company, to the comments set forth
in the Staff’s Letter on a point-by-point basis. The numbered paragraphs set forth below respond to the Staff’s comments
and correspond to the numbered paragraph in the Staff’s Letter.
Amendment
No. 6 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information, page 169
1.
We note your response and the updated disclosure on page 169 in response to prior comment 5 and reissue. You state that in the event
of cash shortfalls, you expect to “draw down approximately $7 million under the executed Standby Equity Purchase Agreement with
YA II” to cover certain transaction expenses at the closing of the Business Combination. Please revise to more accurately describe
your funding access under the agreement. In this regard, we note based on your disclosure on page 139 that the agreement does not appear
to provide a credit facility on which you may draw down at the closing of the Business Combination, but rather grants you the right to
issue and sell an aggregate amount of up to $200 million of Combined Entity Ordinary Shares to YA II after the completion of the Business
Combination, subject to certain limitations. In addition, as we previously requested, please tell us why you believe it is appropriate
to present a pro forma negative cash balance, as opposed to a liability.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises that in its Amendment No. 6 to Registration Statement on
Form S-4, the Company wrote that, if needed, the Combined Entity expects to draw approximately $7 million under the SEPA at “or
after” Closing of the Business Combination. In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company updated its disclosure on
page 169 to further describe the funding access and limits thereto under the SEPA. In addition, in response to the Staff’s comment,
the Company updated the proforma with an assumption of zero cash available, with the balance of the payable as a liability under the
maximum redemption scenario (see pages 169-174).
Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023, page 170
2.
Please revise to specify the rounding denomination used within the Pro Forma Balance Sheet. For example: “(in thousands)”.
Response:
The Company has revised pages 39 and 170 of the Registration Statement in response to the Staff’s comment to specify the rounding
denomination properly.
Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2023, page 171
3.
Graphjet’s basic and diluted net loss per share presented in this table does not appear consistent with the amount presented on
page F-35. Please advise or revise accordingly.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises in response that it has corrected Graphjet’s Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2023 (on page 171) for consistency with the amount presented
on page F-35.
Note
6 - Loss Per Share, page 174
4.
We note your response and the updated disclosure on page 174 in response to prior comment 7 and reissue. It appears your basic and diluted
EPS calculations include the potentially dilutive shares including the shares underlying your warrants and shares issuable under the
equity incentive plan. Please tell us why you believe your calculation is appropriate given these shares are deemed anti-dilutive. Refer
to ASC 260-10-45-17.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises in response that the Company has removed the dilution effects
of warrants and equity incentive plan when calculating the basic and diluted EPS (see pages 39, 174).
