Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed, Springwater Special Situations Corp. (the "Company") is holding a special meeting (the "special meeting") of stockholders, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 23, 2023, virtually, at https://www.cstproxy.com/swcspac/2023, for the sole purpose of considering and voting upon the following proposals, each of which are more fully described in the proxy statement for the special meeting filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 3, 2023 (the "Proxy Statement"):

? a proposal to amend the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "charter"), to allow the Company to issue securities as a dividend prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, and specifically to allow the Company to issue rights as a dividend in connection with the special meeting (the "Contemplated Dividend") as more fully described in the Proxy Statement (the "Issuance Amendment Proposal");

? a proposal to amend the charter to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate an initial business combination (the "Extension") from February 28, 2023 to August 28, 2023 (the "Extended Date") (the "Extension Amendment Proposal"); and

? a proposal to adjourn the special meeting to a later date or dates, if we determine that additional time is necessary to effectuate the Extension.

The Company's board of directors has fixed the close of business on March 2, 2023 (the "Dividend Record Date") as the date for determining the Company's stockholders entitled to receive the Contemplated Dividend, assuming the Issuance Amendment Proposal is approved at the special meeting and the Extension is implemented. Only holders of record of the Company's common stock on the Dividend Record Date would be entitled to receive the Contemplated Dividend.

As described in the Proxy Statement, the holders of shares of common stock sold in the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO") and held by public stockholders (the "public shares") may elect to have their public shares redeemed for their pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account (the "trust account") established in connection with the IPO (calculated as of two business days prior to the special meeting) if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved and the Extension is implemented. Holders of public shares do not need to vote on the Extension Amendment Proposal (or any other proposal to be voted upon at the special meeting) or be a holder of record on the record date for the special meeting to exercise redemption rights. It is currently anticipated that holders of public shares that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal would receive $10.26 per share if the Extension is effectuated.

Additionally, as described in the Proxy Statement, pursuant to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IR Act"), commencing in 2023, a 1% U.S. federal excise tax is imposed on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by "covered corporations" occurring on or after January 1, 2023. As a result, any share redemption or other share repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has agreed that the per share price payable to stockholders exercising their redemption rights, whether in connection with the vote on an extension or an initial business combination, will not be reduced by payments required to be made by the Company under the IR Act.
