Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change
in Fiscal Year.
On
April 3, 2023, Nocturne Acquisition Corporation, a special purpose acquisition company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted
company (the “Company”) held an extraordinary general meeting (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting,
the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of
Association (the “Charter Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial
business combination from April 5, 2023 to October 5, 2023, provided that, in the event that the Company has not consummated a
business combination by October 5, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) may, without
any approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination up
to three (3) times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to three additional months) until January 5,
2024. The Charter Amendment became effective on April 3, 2023 upon approval by the Company’s shareholders at the Meeting.
The foregoing
description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and
is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.07. Submission
of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At
the Meeting, an aggregate of 5,324,080 ordinary shares of the Company, which represents a quorum of the outstanding ordinary shares
entitled to vote as of the record date of March 3, 2023, were represented in person or by proxy at the Meeting.
At the
Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on the following proposal, which was approved:
(1)
The Extension Amendment Proposal — a proposal, by special resolution to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from April
5, 2023 to October 5, 2023, provided that, in the event that the Company has not consummated a business combination by
October 5, 2023, the Board may, without any approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the date by which the Company
has to consummate a business combination up to three (3) times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to three
additional months) until January 5, 2024. The following is a tabulation of the votes with respect to this proposal, which
was approved by the Company’s shareholders:

The Company
had solicited proxies in favor of an adjournment proposal which would have given the Company authority to adjourn the Meeting to solicit
additional proxies. As there were sufficient shares voted in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal, this proposal was not voted upon
at the Meeting.
In
connection with the Meeting, shareholders holding 132,664 public shares (representing approximately 6.7% of the Company’s
outstanding public shares and approximately 2.5% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares generally) exercised their right
to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Company’s Trust Account.
