The information contained in Item 8.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.01 to the extent required.

 

On April 8, 2024, RMG Acquisition Corp. III. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Prior Announcement”) announcing that the Company would not consummate an initial business combination by the date required by its Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Termination Date”), and that (i) the Company intended to dissolve and liquidate, effective as of the close of business on April 22, 2024, (ii) that the Company would redeem all of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares that were included in the units sold in its initial public offering, at a per-share redemption price of approximately $10.00 (the “Redemption”) and (iii) the Company’s securities would be delisted from Nasdaq.

However, on April 19, 2024, the Company issued a press release stating that, notwithstanding anything contained in the Prior Announcement, the board of directors of the Company has subsequently determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to (i) continue its pursuit of an initial business combination (and not liquidate the Company’s trust account or consummate the Redemption at this time), and (ii) prepare and file a proxy statement seeking shareholder approval to extend the Termination Date. In addition, the Company is in the process of appealing the previously-reported delisting determination and the Company expects its securities will remain listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market during the appeals process.

No action is required by existing shareholders of the Company at this time.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
