Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On August 30, 2023, Crixus BH3 Acquisition Company (the “Company”) filed a current report with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) announcing (the “Prior Announcement”) that it (i) intended to discontinue its pursuit of an initial business combination and liquidate the trust account established for the benefit of its public stockholders (the “Trust Account”), (ii) determined not to proceed with a previously announced special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) that was scheduled to be held on September 20, 2023 (as described in a definitive proxy statement dated August 29, 2023 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”), (iii) subject to the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), expected to redeem its Class A common stock (the “Offering Shares”) as promptly as practicable following (but not more than 10 business days after) September 6, 2023 (the “Existing Termination Date”), and (iv) anticipated that the last day of trading of its Offering Shares and warrants on the Nasdaq Global Market would be on or about the Existing Termination Date.

However, the Company’s sponsor, Crixus BH3 Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), has taken action pursuant to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended) (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which we must consummate an initial business combination to October 6, 2023, including by depositing into the Trust Account an additional amount of $175,440.72 ($0.035 per outstanding share of the Company’s 5,012,592 Offering Shares (such amount, a “Deposit Amount”) (thereby increasing the aggregate principal amount of the previously disclosed, non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note executed and delivered by the Company to the Sponsor to $350,881.44). The Deposit Amount shall be used to fund any redemption of the Offering Shares pursuant to the Charter.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Prior Announcement or the termination of the non-binding proposal disclosed below, the Board has subsequently determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to (i) continue its pursuit of an initial business combination (and not liquidate the Trust Account at this time), (ii) extend the date by which it must complete an initial business combination to October 6, 2023 (the “New Termination Date”), (iii) amend the Definitive Proxy Statement and proceed with the Special Meeting on the postponed date of September 29, 2023, (iv) not to redeem its Offering Shares as promptly as practicable following (but not more than 10 business days after) the Existing Termination Date and (v) allow for the continued trading of its Offering Shares and warrants on the Nasdaq Global Market beyond the Existing Termination Date.

 

Item 8.01

Other Events.

On August 30, 2023 the Company terminated the non-binding proposal (with a binding exclusivity agreement) with respect to a potential business combination, previously referenced in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on July 31, 2023.

The disclosure contained in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 8.01.
