(the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company will redeem its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Shares”), effective as of October 11, 2023, because the Company will not consummate an initial business combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as extended in connection with the Company’s extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on April 20, 2023. The redemption of the Shares is expected to be completed within ten business days after September 26, 2023.
