Key Terminates Agreement to Acquire Cay Clubs
OCTOBER 3, 2007. Key Hospitality Acquisition Corporation (OTCBB:KHPA) ("Key Hospitality") announced today that it has agreed with Cay Clubs LLC ("Cay Clubs") to terminatethe merger agreement they entered into on March 22, 2007 and amended onAugust 2, 2007, pursuant to which Key Hospitality would have acquired all of the outstanding securities of Cay Clubs. The deterioration of Cay Clubs' market in Florida, the liquidity problems it is facing and the recent unavailability of jumbo mortgages for potential condo-hotel buyers have made it highly unlikely that certain closing conditions contained in the agreement could be met.
Because of the termination of the merger agreement with Cay Clubs and given that, pursuant to its charter and the terms of its initial public offering, Key Hospitality is not permitted to pursue any other transactions, Key Hospitality will shortly begin the process of liquidating and dissolving itself in accordance with its charter and applicable law. As a result, it expects that the amounts held in its trust account, together with interest (net of applicable taxes), will be returned to Key Hospitality's public stockholders. No payments will be made in respect of Key Hospitality's outstanding warrants or to any of its initial stockholders with respect to the shares owned by them prior to the initial public offering. Key Hospitality intends to prepare and mail to its stockholders a proxy statement seeking approval to effect the liquidation and dissolution.
