On October 5, 2022, Altitude Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a non-redemption agreement (the “Non-Redemption Agreement”) with one of its existing stockholders (the “Non-Redeeming Stockholder”) holding an aggregate of 223,124 shares (the “Shares”) of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company.

Pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Non-Redeeming Stockholder agreed to (a) not redeem the Shares in connection with the vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate an initial business combination from October 11, 2022 to April 11, 2023 (the “Extension” and such extended date, the “Extended Date”) and (b) vote all of its Shares in favor of the Extension.

In connection with the foregoing, Gary Teplis, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, agreed to pay to the Non-Redeeming Stockholder $0.05 per Share per month through the Extended Date, in a single cash payment within 45 days from the date of the Non-Redemption Agreement.

Based on the redemption results ahead of the special meeting on October 6, 2022 and assuming the Extension is adopted, the Company expects over $15 million to remain in the trust account following the effectiveness of the Extension.

The foregoing description of the Non-Redemption Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the form of Non-Redemption Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

The Company filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Extension Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 16, 2022. The Extension Proxy Statement will be used in connection with the stockholder meeting to approve the Extension. The Company has mailed the Extension Proxy Statement to its stockholders of record as of September 8, 2022 in connection with the Extension. Investors and security holders of the Company are advised to read the Extension Proxy Statement and any amendments thereto, because these documents will contain important information about the Extension and the Company. Stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the Extension Proxy Statement, without charge, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: Altitude Acquisition Corp., 400 Perimeter Center Terrace Suite 151, Atlanta, GA 30346.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company and its directors and executive officers may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the Extension under the rules of the SEC. Information about the directors and executive officers of the Company and a description of their interests in the Company and the Extension are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on Mach 29, 2022 (the “Annual Report”) and the definitive Extension Proxy Statement, which was filed with the SEC on September 16, 2022. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this Current Report are “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this Current Report, the words “estimates,” “projected,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “future,” “propose” and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include: the risk that approval of the Company’s stockholders for the Extension is not obtained; the inability of the Company to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to an initial business combination within the time provided in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation; the level of redemptions made by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Extension and its impact on the amount of funds available in the Company’s trust account to complete an initial business combination; and those factors discussed in the Annual Report under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of the Company filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
