Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

In connection with the preparation of its financial statements as of and for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, Shelter Acquisition Corporation I (the "Company") reevaluated the classification of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Public Shares"), issued as part of the units sold in the Company's initial public offering (the "Initial Public Offering") on July 2, 2021, and concluded that it is appropriate to restate the presentation of the Public Shares subject to possible redemption to reflect all Public Shares as temporary equity. The Company previously recorded the Public Shares subject to possible redemption to be equal to the redemption value of such shares, while also taking into consideration the requirement in the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation that redemptions cannot result in net tangible assets falling below $5,000,001 (the "Minimum Net Tangible Assets Requirement"). The Company had therefore recorded a portion of the Public Shares as permanent equity. Upon further evaluation, the Company has determined that the Public Shares include certain redemption features that are not solely within the control of the Company. Under Accounting Standards Codification 480-10-S99, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require Public Shares subject to redemption to be classified as temporary equity, regardless of the Minimum Net Tangible Assets Requirement. This reclassification of equity was reflected in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 12, 2021 as a revision and not a restatement.

On February 11, 2022, the audit committee of the board of directors of the Company (the "Audit Committee") concluded, after discussion with the Company's management, that the Company's previously issued audited balance sheet as of July 2, 2021 included in the Company's Form 8-K filed on July 12, 2021 (the "Original 8-K") should no longer be relied upon. The Company plans to amend the Original 8-K to file the restated audited balance sheet as of July 2, 2021.

The Company does not expect any of the above changes will have any impact on its cash position and cash held in the trust account established in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the "Trust Account").

The Company's management has concluded that in light of the classification error described above, a material weakness exists in the Company's internal control over financial reporting and that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The Company's remediation plan with respect to such material weakness will be described in more detail in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, to be filed with the SEC.

The Company's management and the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Marcum, LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
