On April 5, 2023, Focus Impact Acquisition Corp. (“FIAC”) filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Extension Proxy Statement”) in connection with a
special meeting of stockholders (the “Extension Meeting”) to be held on April 24, 2023, to consider and act upon a proposal to extend the date by which FIAC has to consummate a business combination (the “Termination Date”) from May 1, 2023
to August 1, 2023 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow FIAC, without the need for another
stockholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times, by an additional one month each time, after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of FIAC’s board of
directors (the “Board”), if requested by Focus Impact Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the “Sponsor”). The Extension Proxy Statement was mailed to FIAC’s stockholders of record as of March 23,
2023. Stockholders may obtain a copy of the Extension Proxy Statement at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).
On April 24, 2023, FIAC decided to adjourn the Extension Meeting, without conducting any other business, and to reconvene the
Extension Meeting at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 25, 2023.
As set forth in the Extension Proxy Statement, the deadline by which FIAC public stockholders had to complete the procedures for
electing to redeem their Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), was 5:00 p.m., Eastern
Time, on April 20, 2023 (“Redemption Deadline”). The current number of shares tendered for redemption prior to the Redemption Deadline and not reversed is 18,072,784. Following such
redemptions, if not withdrawn, FIAC will have 4,927,216 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding. The deadline for stockholders to withdraw previously submitted redemption requests is April 25, 2023, prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, subject to
approval by the board of directors of FIAC.
Stockholders may make such request by contacting our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at One
State Street, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, Attn: Mark Zimkind (e-mail: mzimkind@continentalstock.com).
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned
