Clarim Acquisition Corp. to Hold Special Meeting of Stockholders to Obtain Approval to Terminate Before Year-End

NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarim Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: CLRMU, CLRM, CLRMW) (the "Company") will be holding a Special Meeting of stockholders on December 7, 2022, at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, located at 601 Lexington Avenue, 50th Floor, New York, New York 10022 (the "Special Meeting"). At this Special Meeting, stockholders will be asked to vote on, among other matters, a proposal to amend the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "Charter"), which would, if implemented, allow the Company to redeem all of its outstanding public shares prior to December 30, 2022, in advance of the automatic termination date of February 2, 2023 (such earlier termination date, the "early termination date"). 

If approved by stockholders at the Special Meeting, the Board of Directors of the Company expects to file the amendment to the Charter on December 7, 2022 and establish December 7, 2022 as the early termination date. If the amendment to the Charter is implemented following stockholder approval, the last day of trading of the Company's public shares and units on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC will be December 7, 2022.

Pursuant to the Company's Charter, a public stockholder may request that the Company redeem all or a portion of such stockholder's public shares for cash if the proposed amendment to the Charter is approved and the Charter is amended (a "voluntary redemption"). If the amendment to the Charter is implemented on December 7, 2022, the Company expects to complete such voluntary redemption on or about December 8, 2022. Moreover, because the Company will not be able to complete an initial business combination by the early termination date, the Company will be obligated to redeem the remaining public shares as promptly as possible, but not more than ten business days after the early termination date (a "mandatory redemption"). If the amendment to the Charter is implemented following stockholder approval, the Company expects to complete the mandatory redemption on or about December 12, 2022.

For more information, please see the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 14, 2022.

Specific procedures regarding redemptions can be found in the definitive proxy statement. Holders of the Company's units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company's warrants, which will expire worthless at the early termination date if the amendment to the Charter is approved by stockholders and implemented. Stockholders are encouraged to contact their brokerage firm or bank or the Company's transfer agent for additional information regarding redemption procedures.
