Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On June 6, 2024, Compass Digital Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), entered into a non-binding letter of intent with a renewable energy platform company for an initial business combination.

Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be entered into or that the proposed transaction will be consummated.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings.

The Meeting will be held in person at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, located at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 11^th Floor, New York, New York 10105. The deadlines by which shareholders must (i) exercise their redemption rights in connection with the vote to approve the Extension and (ii) reserve their attendance at the Meeting has been extended to Tuesday, July 16, 2024, at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, which is two business days prior to the Meeting.

Additional information regarding the participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests are contained in the Proxy Statement.
