Vertical Aerospace Says It Mutually Agreed To Exit Contract With Rolls-Royce To Design An Electric Propulsion Unit; Company To Receive A Cash Amount From Rolls-Royce By June 30, Which Will Cover Anticipated Costs Of An Alternative EPU Design
Vertical Aerospace表示雙方同意退出與勞斯萊斯設計電力推進裝置的合同；該公司將在6月30日之前從勞斯萊斯獲得現金，這將支付替代EPU設計的預期成本
- This follows Rolls-Royce's announcement in November 2023 of its intention to seek a partner or buyer for its advanced air mobility activities.
- Vertical is already working with other EPU suppliers for its new prototype, and the exit of this contract has no impact on the completion of this prototype or its identical twin. Vertical is now in active engagement with a shortlist of potential EPU partners for the certification and production aircraft following the launch of a formal tender process. Vertical continues to target type certification by the end of 2026.
- The agreement also includes the return to Vertical of Rolls-Royce's EVTL shares, which it initially acquired as a private investment in public equity (PIPE) investor in 2021.
- 在此之前，勞斯萊斯於2023年11月宣佈打算爲其高級空中交通活動尋找合作伙伴或買家。
- Vertical已經在與其他EPU供應商合作開發其新原型，該合同的退出對該原型或其同卵雙胞胎的完成沒有影響。在啓動正式招標程序後，Vertical現在正在積極與潛在的EPU合作伙伴的候選名單進行合作，以獲得認證和量產飛機。垂直行業繼續將目標定爲到2026年底進行型式認證。
- 該協議還包括向縱向收購勞斯萊斯的EVTL股票，該公司最初於2021年作爲私人公募股權投資（PIPE）投資者收購了該股票。
