At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the following proposals:
(i) to amend the Certificate (such amendment the “Extension Amendment” and, such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) to extend the date by which the Company must (1) consummate an initial merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “business combination”), (2) cease its operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to complete such business combination, and (3) redeem all shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”) included as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (such shares of Class A common stock, the “public shares”) that was consummated on November 8, 2021 (the “IPO”), from May 8, 2023 (which is 18 months from the closing date of the IPO (the “Current Outside Date”)) to November 8, 2023 (such date, the “Extended Date”), and to allow the Company, without another stockholder vote, by resolution of the Company’s board of directors (our “board”), to elect to further extend the Extended Date in one-month increments up to three additional times, or a total of up to nine months after the Current Outside Date, until February 8, 2024, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto or such earlier date as determined by our board to be in the best interests of the Company (the “Extension”);
(ii) to amend the Certificate to eliminate from the Certificate the limitation that the Company may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (or any successor rule)) of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow the Company to redeem public shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment”);
(iii) to re-elect Mitchell Jacobson as a Class I director of our board, to serve for a term of three years until 2026 or until his successor is elected and qualified (the “Director Election Proposal”);
(iv) to approve and ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP, as the Company’s independent accountants for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022 and ending December 31, 2023 (the “Auditor Ratification Proposal”); and
(v) to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Proposals (the “Adjournment Proposal” and, together with the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, the Director Election Proposal and the Auditor Ratification Proposal, the “Proposals”).
