WHEREAS, the Company has sought the approval of the holders of its Class A common stock and holders of its Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (together the “Common Stock”), at a special meeting to: (i) provide the Company’s Board of Directors with the right to extend the Combination Period from October 19, 2023 to February 19, 2024 (as extended, the “Extended Date”) (i.e., for a period of time ending 25 months after the consummation of the Offering) (the “Extension Amendment”) and (ii) allow the Company to extend the Combination Period for an additional one (1) month each time from October 19, 2023 to the Extended Date as set forth in the Extension Amendment (the “Trust Amendment”);

 

WHEREAS, holders of 65% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, approved the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment; and

 

WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Original Agreement to, among other things, reflect amendments to the Original Agreement contemplated by the Trust Amendment.
