New America Acquisition Corp. ( (NWAX) ) has provided an update.
On February 6, 2026, director George O’Leary resigned from the board of New America Acquisition I Corp., with the company stating his departure did not stem from any disagreement over its operations, policies or practices. The move prompted governance changes, including expanding the board from five to six members and reconfiguring its leadership.
That same day, the board appointed Stefan C. Passantino and Kyle Wool as Class I and Class III directors, respectively, with Wool also joining the investment committee and replacing Kevin McGurn as chairman. Passantino, deemed independent under NYSE standards, entered the company’s standard indemnity agreement and a preexisting letter tied to the IPO that commits him to support the initial business combination, abide by transfer restrictions and assume specified indemnification obligations, while receiving an indirect interest in 50,000 Class B shares via the sponsor entity.
