Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 29, 2023, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Twelve Seas Investment Company II, a Delaware corporation (“Twelve Seas II”), Crystal Lagoons U.S. Corp, a Delaware corporation, CL Newco Inc., a newly-incorporated Delaware corporation (“Crystal Lagoons”), Twelve Seas II Merger Sub 1 Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Twelve Seas II, and Twelve Seas II Merger Sub 2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Twelve Seas II, on December 22, 2023, Twelve Seas II entered into a Voting and Support Agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) with Crystal Lagoons and Twelve Seas Sponsor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to forfeit 6,625,000 shares of Twelve Seas II Class A common stock (the “Founder Shares”).

On February 13, 2024, Twelve Seas II, Crystal Lagoons, and the Sponsor entered into an Amendment to Sponsor Support Agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the number of Founder Shares the Sponsor agreed to forfeit was reduced from 6,625,000 to 6,170,000. The Amendment also corrects the total number of Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor prior to the forfeiture by reducing the number of Founder Shares from 8,625,000 to 8,225,000.
