Extension Approval
As previously disclosed, on October 12, 2023,
10X Capital Venture Acquisition Corp. III, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“10X III”) held an extraordinary general meeting
of shareholders, at which 10X III’s shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend 10X III’s Second
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which 10X III must (1) consummate a merger, share
exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination (an “initial business combination”),
(2) cease its operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to complete such initial business combination, and (3) redeem
all of the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, included as part of the units sold in its initial public offering, from
October 14, 2023 to January 14, 2024 (the “Extended Date”) and to allow the board of directors of 10X III (the “Board”),
without another shareholder vote, to elect to further extend the date to consummate an initial business combination after the Extended
Date for up to six additional months, by one or more months each time, upon two days’ advance notice prior to the
applicable deadline, up to July 14, 2024, unless the closing of an initial business combination should have occurred prior thereto.
On January 9, 2024, the Board approved the extension
of the date by which 10X III is required to complete an initial business combination until March 14, 2024 (the “First Optional Extension”).
This Current Report on Form 8-K constitutes notice to shareholders of the Board’s approval of the First Optional Extension.
Liquidation of Investment Held in the Trust Account
into Cash Held in an Interest-Bearing Demand Deposit Account
In order to mitigate the potential risks of being
deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
“Investment Company Act”), 10X III has determined to instruct Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee
with respect to 10X III’s trust account (the “Trust Account”), to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations
and money market funds held in the Trust Account on or about January 10, 2024 and to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an
interest-bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of consummation of 10X III’s initial
business combination or liquidation. Interest on such demand deposit account is variable and therefore such rate of interest may decrease
or increase significantly. As a result, following such liquidation, 10X III may receive less interest on the funds held in the Trust
Account, which would reduce the dollar amount public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of 10X III.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
