LF Capital Acquisition Corp. II (the “LF II”) (NASDAQ: LFAC)
today announced that its previously announced special meeting of
stockholders (the “Meeting”) will be postponed from 11:00 a.m.
Eastern Time on June 13, 2023 to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 26,

In connection with the announcement, LF II filed a revised proxy

account proposed in the charter amendment proposal, which now
proposes to amend LF II’s current charter to permit LF II to extend
the date by which LF II has to consummate a business combination
from August 19, 2023 to November 19, 2023 (the “Extended Date”), by
increasing the number of one-month extensions of the deadline to
complete the initial business combination from six to nine (the
“Extensions”) by depositing into the trust account (the “Trust
Account”) established in connection with LF II’s initial public
offering (the “IPO”) for each extension beginning July 19, 2023 the
lesser of (i) $200,000 or (ii) $0.03 per share of LF II’s Class A
common stock (the “Class A common stock”), par value $0.0001, sold
in the IPO, per extension (the “Charter Amendment” and, such
proposal the “Charter Amendment Proposal”).
The record date for determining LF II’s shareholders entitled to
receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting remains the close of
business on May 12, 2023 (the “Record Date”). Shareholders as of
the Record Date can vote, even if they have subsequently sold their
shares. Shareholders who have previously submitted their proxies or
otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote need not
take any action. Shareholders who have not yet done so are
encouraged to vote as soon as possible.
As a result of the Postponement, the previously disclosed
deadline of June 9, 2023 (two business days before the Meeting, as
originally scheduled) for delivery of redemption requests from LF
II’s shareholders to LF II’s transfer agent has been extended to
June 21, 2023 (three business days before the postponed Meeting).
Shareholders who wish to withdraw their previously submitted
redemption request may do so prior to the postponed Meeting by
requesting that LF II’s transfer agent return such shares by 5:00
p.m. Eastern Time on June 21, 2023. If any such shareholders have
questions or need assistance in connection with the Meeting, please
