NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1-Description of Organization and Business Operations

RMG Acquisition Corp. III (the “Company”) is a blank check company, also referred to as a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 23, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses that the Company has not yet identified (“Business Combination”).

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not yet commenced operations. All activity for the period from December 23, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and identifying a target company for an initial Business Combination, which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The Company’s sponsor is RMG Sponsor III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 4, 2021. On February 9, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 48,300,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), including 6,300,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $483.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $27.1 million, of which approximately $16.9 million was for deferred underwriting commissions and $250,000 was for deferred legal fees (Note 7).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 8,216,330 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $12.3 million (Note 5).

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $483.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee and have been invested in United States government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of its Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company’s initial Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time the Company signs a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

The Company will provide its holders of Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, expenses relating to the administration of the trust account and limited withdrawals for working capital). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 7). These Public Shares will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association which will be adopted by the Company upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, a shareholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the holders of the Founder Shares prior to this Initial Public Offering (the “Initial Shareholders”) agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 6) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the Initial Shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination. In addition, the Company agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial Business Combination without the prior consent of the Sponsor.

RMG ACQUISITION CORP. III

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association will provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company’s Sponsor, executive officers and directors agreed not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide for the redemption of its Public Shares in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

On January 11, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders for the purpose of approving an amendment to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which the Company must complete a business combination from February 9, 2023, to May 9, 2023 (the “Extended Date”), and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to further extend the date to consummate a business combination up to three times by an additional month each time after the Extended Date, upon two days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, for a total of up to six months, to August 9, 2023, if the Company has entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “First Extension”). In connection with the First Extension, holders of 47,381,598 Class A ordinary shares elected to redeem their Class A ordinary shares for an aggregate of approximately $478 million in cash.

On August 4, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders for the purpose of approving an amendment to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which the Company must complete a business combination from August 9, 2023 to February 9, 2024 (the “Second Extension”). In addition, the shareholders approved the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s charter to eliminate the limitation that the Company shall not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemptions would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 following such redemptions. In connection with the Second Extension, holders of 282,624 Class A ordinary shares elected to redeem their Class A ordinary shares for an aggregate of approximately $2,942,664 in cash.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by February 9, 2024, (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of taxes payable, expenses relating to the administration of the trust account and limited withdrawals for working capital), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Initial Shareholders agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Shareholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 7) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.00 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, expenses relating to the administration of the trust account and limited withdrawals for working capital, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have vendors, service providers (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On June 20, 2023, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that the Company is not incompliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (Market Value Standard), due to our failure to maintain the minimum of $35 million in aggregate market value. The notice also noted that the Company does not meet the requirements under Listing Rules 5550(b)(1) (Equity Standard) and 5550(b)(3) (Net Income Standard). The notice does not impact the listing of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares at this time. The Notice provided that, in accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C) (the “Compliance Period Rule”), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days from the date of the notice, or until December 18, 2023 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the market value standard. During this period, Class A ordinary shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If at any time before the Compliance Date the Company’s market value of listed securities closes at or above $35 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days as required under the Compliance Period Rule, the Listing Qualifications Department will provide written notification to the Company that it has regained compliance with the Market Value Standard and will close the matter (unless the Listing Qualification Department exercises its discretion to extend this 10 business day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H)). If the Company does not regain compliance with the market value standard by the Compliance Date, the Listing Qualifications Department will provide a written notification to the Company that Class A ordinary shares will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). However, there can be no assurance that, if the Company receives a delisting notice and appeals the delisting determination by the Staff to the Panel, such appeal would be successful. The Company intends to monitor its market value of listed securities between now and the Compliance Date, and may, if appropriate, evaluate available options to resolve the deficiency under the market value standard and regain compliance with the market value standard. The Company may also try to comply with another Nasdaq listing criteria, such as the one under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (Equity Standard). However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing criteria.

Going Concern

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $35,000 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of approximately $6.7 million. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements are issued.

The Company’s liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from Sponsor to cover certain expenses in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), the loan of $135,000 from the Sponsor pursuant to the Note (as defined in Note 4), and the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. The Company fully repaid the Note on February 12, 2021. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may provide the Company Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 4). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $850,000 and $500,000, respectively, outstanding under Working Capital Loan.

Pursuant to the investment management trust agreement entered into at the Initial Public Offering, the Company is permitted to withdraw funds for working capital requirements. These permitted withdrawals are limited to only the interest available that has been earned in excess of the initial deposit at the Initial Public Offering. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company withdrew $578,729 and $43,317, respectively, for working capital purposes. Through the date of this filing the Company withdrew an additional $651,579 from the Trust Account for working capital purposes.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern,” management has determined that the working capital deficit and the mandatory liquidation date and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to complete a business combination by February 9, 2024, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after February 9, 2024. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures included in the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements as they are not required for interim financial statements under GAAP and the rules of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on April 18, 2023.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage limit of $250,000. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Cash and Investments Held in Trust Account

The Company’s portfolio of investments is comprised of cash and U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. Cash held in the Trust Account is in a demand deposit account that accrues interest monthly. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities is included in unrealized gain on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information, other than for investments in open-ended money market funds with published daily net asset values (“NAV”), in which case the Company uses NAV as a practical expedient to fair value. The NAV on these investments is typically held constant at $1.00 per unit. The Trust Account may also contain balances of cash as result of investment activity.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

•

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

•

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

•

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Working Capital Loan Option

On January 19, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Company. On July 27, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $475,000. The notes are due upon consummation of our Business Combination, without interest. At the option of the Sponsor, the outstanding principle of the notes may be converted into that number of warrants (“Conversion Warrants”) equal to the outstanding principle of the note divided by $1.50. The option (“Working Capital Loan Option”) to convert the working capital loans into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in Company’s statements of operations each reporting period until the loan is repaid or converted. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Working Capital Loan Option was $0 and the Working Capital Loan is held at cost of $850,000 and $500,000, respectively, see Note 9.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued share purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 and ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

The warrants issued in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The fair value of warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement were initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently, the fair value of the Private Placement warrants have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model each measurement date. The fair value of Warrants issued in connection with our Initial Public Offering have subsequently been measured based on the listed market price of such warrants.

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting and other costs incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with derivative warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares were charged against the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

RMG ACQUISITION CORP. III

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 918,402 and 48,300,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman federal income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statement. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net (Loss) Income Per Ordinary Share

The Company has two classes of shares issued and outstanding: Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net (loss) income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the periods. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 17,876,330, of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted net (loss) income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted net (loss) income per share is the same as basic net (loss) income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Accretion associated with the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is excluded from earnings per share, as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net (loss) income per share for each ordinary share class.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company’s management does not believe there are any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements if currently adopted would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

Note 3-Initial Public Offering

On February 9, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 48,300,000 Units, including 6,300,000 Over-Allotment Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $483.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $27.1 million, of which approximately $16.9 million was for deferred underwriting commissions and $250,000 was for deferred legal fees. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 9).

Note 4-Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In December 2020, the Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 to cover certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of 10,062,500 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). On January 30, 2021, the Company effectuated a 5-for-6 share split of the Class B ordinary shares, resulting in an aggregate outstanding amount of 12,075,000 Class B ordinary shares. The holders of the Founder Shares agreed to forfeit up to an aggregate of 1,575,000 Founder Shares, on a pro rata basis, to the extent that the option to purchase additional units was not exercised in full by the underwriters, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in full on February 9, 2021; thus, the 1,575,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Initial Shareholders agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (1) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination; and (2) subsequent to the initial Business Combination (x) if the last reported sale price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, rights issuances, consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 8,216,330 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $12.3 million.

Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable for cash and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, members of the Company’s founding team or any of their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lenders’ discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

On December 30, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 to be used for the payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing, unsecured and due upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Company repaid the Note balance in full on February 12, 2021.

RMG ACQUISITION CORP. III

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On January 19, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Company (the “January 2022 Note”). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, an aggregate of $500,000 had been funded under the January 2022 Note. At the option of the Sponsor, the outstanding principle of $500,000 may be converted into Conversion Warrants equal to the outstanding principle of the January 2022 Note divided by $1.50. Upon funding of the January 2022 Note, the Company recognized the initial fair value of the Working Capital Loan Option of approximately $7,900 as a debt discount, which is classified as a component of the working capital loan and amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the loan. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company amortized approximately $0, of the debt discount, classified as interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company amortized approximately $2,400 and $4,200, respectively, of the debt discount, classified as interest expense in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

On July 27, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $475,000 pursuant to an unsecured, non-interest bearing promissory note (the “July 2022 Note”). The July 2022 Note is due upon the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the July 2022 Note, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the July 2022 Note. The July 2022 Note will either be repaid in cash upon consummation of a Business Combination or, at the Sponsor’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the unpaid principal of the July 2022 Note may be converted into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had borrowed $350,000 and $0, respectively, under this loan.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $850,000 and $500,000, respectively, in total borrowings outstanding under the Working Capital Loans. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value and the principal value of the loan was $850,000 and $500,000, respectively.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company agreed to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $20,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services (including salaries). Upon the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination, the Company will pay to such affiliate an amount equal to $20,000 multiplied by the number of whole months that have elapsed between the date of the completion of the Initial Business Combination and the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Company incurred $60,000 and $120,000 in expenses in connection with such services during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The Company incurred $60,000 and $120,000 in expenses in connection with such services during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The Company had $180,000 and $120,000 included in accrued expenses-related party in connection with such services as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. The audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to the Sponsor, directors, officers or the Company’s or any of their respective affiliates.

Note 5-Commitments &Contingencies

Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) were entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities were entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of this prospectus to purchase up to 6,300,000 additional Units at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in full on February 9, 2021.

The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, or approximately $9.7 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per unit, or approximately $16.9 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions.

On April 16, 2023, one of the underwriters waived its entitlement to the payment of any deferred fee, of approximately $10,143,000, to be paid under the terms of the underwriting agreement and is no longer serving in any advisor capacity. As a result, the Company recognized $440,592 of income and $9,702,408 was recorded to additional paid-in capital in relation to the reduction of the deferred underwriter fee. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the deferred underwriting fee payable is $6,762,000 and $16,905,000, respectively. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

On April 17, 2023, one of the underwriters waived its entitlement to the payment of any deferred fee, of approximately $6,762,000, to be paid under the terms of the underwriting agreement specifically to closing of the Merger Agreement with H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies (“H2B2”). Due to the waiver of the deferred fees being contingent upon the closing of a business combination with H2B2, the deferred underwriting fee remains payable on the unaudited condensed balance sheets until the closing of the business combination with H2B2.

Contingent Fee Agreements

In December 2022, the Company engaged a capital market advisor to assist with the completion of the business combination. The Company agreed to pay the advisor $500,000 in cash and $250,000 paid in equivalent dollar amount in common stock, solely in the event that the Company completes its Business Combination. As of June 30, 2023, the Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable. If the fee is determined to be a transaction cost for the Business Combination then the amount payable to the advisor may be accounted for as an expense in the period the liability is recorded.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. These unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Proposed Business Combination

On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between the Company and H2B2, which provides for, among other things, the deregistration of the Company under the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands and the domestication of the Company as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and, following the Domestication, the merger of H2B2 with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger” and, together with the Domestication and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). As a result of the Transactions, H2B2 will cease to exist and the stockholders of H2B2 will become stockholders of the Company. The transactions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the Domestication and the Merger, will constitute a “Business Combination” as contemplated by the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Under the Merger Agreement, the stockholders of H2B2 will receive a number of shares of the domesticated Company’s common stock based on an exchange ratio (the “Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is equal to $750 million (which amount will be subject to adjustment in the event that H2B2 issues debt or equity prior to the closing of the Transactions) divided by $10.00, and the denominator of which is equal to the number of outstanding shares of H2B2, including shares that would be issuable upon the exercise in full of all H2B2 options. The holders of H2B2 options will receive the Company’s options equal to the number of shares of H2B2 common stock subject to the H2B2 options multiplied by the Exchange Ratio at an exercise price per share divided by the Exchange Ratio.

In connection with the Transactions, the Company, Sponsor, certain of H2B2’s directors and officers and certain former stockholders of H2B2 agreed to enter into lock-up agreements at the closing of the Merger, which will restrict the transfer of (i) a number of shares of the surviving corporation common stock held by such securityholder, as set forth in the lock-up agreement, (ii) any shares of the surviving corporation common stock held issuable upon the exercise or settlement, as applicable, of surviving corporation options held by a securityholder, or (iii) any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for surviving corporation common stock held by a securityholder. The lock-up agreements will restrict the transfer until 180 days after the closing of the Merger, subject to limited exceptions and early release provisions set forth under the lock-up agreements.

The Merger Agreement contains certain representations and warranties of the parties to the Merger Agreement and consummation of the Transactions is conditioned on approval thereof by the Company’s shareholders and is further conditioned upon, representations and warranties of the parties and other closing conditions.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time, but not later than the closing of the Merger, as follows:

•

by written consent of H2B2 and the Company;

•

by H2B2 or the Company if any governmental authority has enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any law or governmental order which has become final and non-appealable and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement) illegal or otherwise enjoining, preventing or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (provided that such party did not cause such enactment);

•

by H2B2 or the Company if the consummation of the Transactions has not occurred on or prior to June 30, 2024, subject to certain automatic extensions, for reasons not primarily due to the terminating party’s breach or violation of the terms of the Merger Agreement;
