Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed, Anzu Special Acquisition Corp I ("Anzu") entered into a letter of intent with Envoy Medical Corporation ("Envoy") regarding a potential business combination (the "Proposed Business Combination"). Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein is an updated investor presentation, which provides an overview of Envoy and certain information regarding the Proposed Business Combination and supersedes the investor presentation included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K filed by Anzu with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 6, 2023.





Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-Looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "estimate," "plan," "project," "forecast," "intend," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "seek," "target" or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Proposed Business Combination and the special meeting of stockholders (the "Stockholder Meeting") to be held to vote on the proposal to amend Anzu's amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Anzu has to consummate an initial business combination from March 4, 2023 to September 30, 2023 or such earlier date as determined by Anzu's board of directors (the "Extension Amendment Proposal"). The forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K reflect Anzu's current views about future events and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause its actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Anzu does not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). In particular, there can be no assurance that Anzu will execute definitive agreements related to the Proposed Business Combination or that the Proposed Business Combination will close on the expected timeline or at all. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, and legal conditions; the failure of Anzu to obtain the requisite approvals for the Extension Amendment Proposal; the amount of redemptions by Anzu's public stockholders in connection with the Stockholder Meeting and the Proposed Business Combination; the inability of the parties to enter into a definitive agreement relating to the Proposed Business Combination on the timeline discussed herein or at all; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the Proposed Business Combination, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Proposed Business Combination or that the approval of stockholders is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination; and other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Anzu's definitive proxy statement, filed with the SEC on January 20, 2023, in Anzu's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 and in other reports Anzu files with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or Anzu's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. While forward-looking statements reflect Anzu's good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. Anzu disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, except as required by applicable law. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to Anzu.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the Proposed Business Combination, Anzu and Envoy intend to prepare, and Anzu intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement") containing a proxy statement/prospectus and certain other related documents, which will be both the proxy statement to be distributed to Anzu's stockholders in connection with Anzu's solicitation of proxies for the vote by Anzu's stockholders with respect to the Proposed Business Combination and other matters as may be described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities to be issued in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. When available, Anzu will mail the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the Proposed Business Combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a substitute for the Registration Statement, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus or any other document that Anzu will send to its stockholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. Investors and security holders are urged to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus in connection with Anzu's solicitation of proxies for its special meeting of stockholders to be held to approve the Proposed Business Combination (and related matters) and general amendments thereto and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus because the proxy statement/prospectus will contain important information about the Proposed Business Combination and the parties to the Proposed Business Combination.

Copies of the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed by Anzu or Envoy with the SEC may be obtained, once available, free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Participants in the Solicitation

Anzu and its directors, executive officers, other members of management, and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies of Anzu's stockholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. Information regarding the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of Anzu's stockholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination will be in the Registration Statement, including a proxy statement/prospectus, when it is filed with the SEC. Investors and security holders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names and interests in the Proposed Business Combination of Anzu's directors and officers in Anzu's filings with the SEC and such information will also be in the Registration Statement to be filed with the SEC, which will include the proxy statement/prospectus of Anzu for the Proposed Business Combination. These documents can be obtained free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Envoy and its directors and executive officers may also be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of Anzu in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the Proposed Business Combination will be included in the proxy statement/prospectus for the Proposed Business Combination when available.
