(the “Company”) entered into an amendment to the investment management trust agreement dated as of December 10, 2021, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Amendment”). Pursuant to the Trust Amendment, the Company has the right to extend the time to complete a business combination until December 15, 2023, with no additional payments to the Company’s trust account (the “Extension”).

 

The foregoing description of the Trust Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Trust Amendment, filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On March 1, 2023, through March 10, 2023, BurTech LP LLC, the sponsor of the Company (the “Sponsor”), entered into agreements (“Non-Redemption Agreements”) with several unaffiliated third parties in exchange for them agreeing not to redeem an aggregate of 4,597,648 shares (“Non-Redeemed Shares”) of the Company’s shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, sold in its initial public offering (the “Class A Shares”), at the Special Meeting.

The foregoing summary of the Non-Redemption Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Non-Redemption Agreement previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 1, 2023 and incorporated herein by reference.
