Arisz Acquisition Corp. ("Arisz" or the "Company") held a special meeting of stockholders (the "Special Meeting") on May 11, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The Special Meeting was held via teleconference. There were 8,901,389 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (the "Common Stock") outstanding on the record date, April 6, 2023. There were 8,138,900 shares of common stock of the Company present at the Special Meeting in person or represented by proxy, which is 91.43% of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding, thereby constituting a quorum. Summarized below are the results of the matters voted on at the Special Meeting.





1. Charter Amendment



Stockholders approved the proposal to amend the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, to (a) extend the date by which Arisz must consummate a business combination up to nine (9) times (the "Charter Amendment"), each such extension for an additional one (1) month period (each an "Extension"), from May 22, 2023 to February 22, 2024 (the latest such date actually extended being referred to as the "Extended Termination Date"); and (b) change Section 6(D) of the Charter to modify the net tangible asset requirement (the "NTA Requirement") to state that the Arisz will not consummate any business combination unless it (i) has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such business combination, or (ii) is otherwise exempt from the provisions of Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "NTA Amendment"). We refer to these proposals as the "Charter Amendment Proposals." Adoption of the Charter Amendment Proposals required approval by the affirmative vote of at least 50% of the holders of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock. The voting results were as follows:

Item 8.01. Other Events.


In connection with the stockholders' vote at the Special Meeting of Stockholders held by the Company on May 11, 2023, 3,745,635 shares of Common Stock were tendered for redemption. As a result, approximately $39.18 million (approximately $10.46 per share) will be removed from the Company's trust account to pay such holders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company, such as franchise taxes, but not including any excise tax, since that date. Following redemptions, the Company will have 5,155,754 shares of Common Stock outstanding, and approximately $33.02 million will remain in the Company's trust account.

In connection with the first one (1) month period Extension, Arisz Investments LLC, the Company's sponsor, will deposit $120,000 into Arisz's trust account prior to May 22, 2023, on behalf of the Company.
