Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 7, 2022, Clarim Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") held a special
meeting of its stockholders (the "Stockholder Meeting") to approve certain
amendments to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") and the Investment Management Trust Agreement,
dated January 28, 2021 (the "Trust Agreement"), by and between the Company and
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee ("Continental") to allow
the Company to redeem all of its outstanding public shares no later than
December 30, 2022, in advance of the automatic termination date in its current
Certificate of Incorporation of February 2, 2023 (the "Original Termination
Date").
At the Stockholder Meeting, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal
to amend the Trust Agreement (such proposal, the "Early Termination Trust
Amendment Proposal" and such amendment, the "Early Termination Trust Amendment")
to change the date on which Continental must commence liquidation of the trust
account established in connection with the Company's initial public offering
from the Original Termination Date to such other date as shall be determined by
the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") and publicly announced by
the Company, provided that such other date shall be no sooner than the date of
the effectiveness of the required amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation
pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and no later
than December 30, 2022 (such date, the "Early Termination Date").
The Board has established December 7, 2022 as the Early Termination Date.
Accordingly, on December 7, 2022, the Company and Continental entered into the
Early Termination Trust Amendment.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Early Termination Trust Amendment, a copy of which is attached as
Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On December 7, 2022, the Company held the Stockholder Meeting to (a) eliminate
the requirement that the Company retain at least $5,000,001 of net tangible
assets following the redemption of the Company's Class A common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share, in connection with a Business Combination (as defined in the
Certificate of Incorporation) and certain amendments to the Certificate of
Incorporation (such proposal, the "Redemption Limit Elimination Proposal" and
such amendment, the "Redemption Limit Elimination Amendment"), (b) change the
date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from the
Original Termination Date to the Early Termination Date (such proposal, the
"Early Termination Proposal" and such amendment, the "Early Termination
Amendment"), (c) approve the Early Termination Trust Amendment Proposal and (d)
approve an adjournment proposal (such proposal, the "Adjournment Proposal"),
each as more fully described in the definitive proxy statement filed by the
Company with SEC on November 14, 2022.
Holders of 27,062,500 shares of common stock of the Company held of record as of
November 4, 2022, the record date for the Stockholder Meeting, were present in
person or by proxy, representing approximately 75.30% of the voting power of the
Company's shares of common stock as of the record date for the Stockholder
Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business.
The stockholders approved the Redemption Limit Elimination Proposal, the Early
Termination Proposal and the Early Termination Trust Amendment Proposal (the
"Proposals").
The voting results for the Proposals were as follows:
The Redemption Limit Elimination Proposal
For Against Abstain Broker Non-Vote
26,885,575 176,895 30 0
The Early Termination Proposal
For Against Abstain Broker Non-Vote
26,885,605 176,865 30 0
The Early Termination Trust Amendment Proposal
For Against Abstain Broker Non-Vote
26,880,593 181,877 30 0

The Company had solicited proxies in favor of an Adjournment Proposal which
would have given the Company authority to adjourn the Stockholder Meeting to
solicit additional proxies. As there were sufficient votes to approve the
Redemption Limit Elimination Proposal, the Early Termination Proposal and the
Early Termination Trust Agreement Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was not
presented to stockholders and was not voted upon at the Stockholder Meeting.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On December 7, 2022, the Company filed the Early Termination Amendment with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and established December 7, 2022 as
the Early Termination Date. As such, the last day of trading of the Company's
public shares and units on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC was on December 7, 2022.
The Company is obligated to redeem all public shares as as promptly as possible
but not more than ten business days after the Early Termination Date. The
Company expects to complete such redemption on or about December 12, 2022.
