Item 8.01 Other Events
Extension request
On February 18, 2025, DT Cloud Capital Corp. (the “Sponsor”), the sponsor of DT Cloud Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”), requested the Company to extend the latest time for completion of initial business combination from February 23, 2025, up to twelve (12) times, each by an additional one (1) month, subject to the sponsor depositing additional funds into the trust account as descried in the final prospectus of the Company dated February 20, 2024 (the “Extension of Time Request”). The board of directors of the Company subsequently approved, adopted and ratified the Extension of Time Request by unanimous approval.
The Sponsor will cause the first monthly extension fee of US$0.03 per then outstanding public share (or, subject to the approval of the Amended Extension Fee Reduction Proposal prior to the extension deadline, US$0.022 per then outstanding public share) to be deposited into the Trust Account on or before February 23, 2025.
Press release
On February 19, 2025, the Company issued a press release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, announcing the postponement of its EGM from 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 18, 2025 to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 21, 2025 and the redemption right deadline to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 19, 2025. The Company filed a proxy supplement on February 14, 2025, as amended on February 19, 2025, to increase the amended monthly extension fee, as proposed in the Proposal 1 to the EGM, to $0.022 for each outstanding Public Share.
Proxy supplements
On January 27, the Company filed the definitive proxy statement dated (together with the additional proxy statement supplements and annexes, the “Proxy Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) related to the EGM to consider and vote upon, among other things, the proposed reduction of monthly extension fee payable by the Company’s Sponsor and/or its designee into the trust account to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $60,000 for all outstanding Public Shares and (ii) $0.0087 for each outstanding Public Share (the “Proposal No. 1”), and related proposals and adjournment of meeting matter, and subsequently commenced mailing.
On February 4, 2025, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) proposed to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the trust account to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination as proposed in the original Proposal 1 to the EGM from an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $60,000 for all outstanding Public Shares and (ii) $0.0087 for each outstanding Public Share as proposed in the Original Filing to an amount equal to $70,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (the “Amended Monthly Extension Fee”). In light of the Amended Monthly Extension Fee, the Company filed a supplement to the Proxy Statement dated February 4, 2025 (the “Supplement No. 1”) with the SEC to, among others, amend Proposal No. 1 (the “Amended Proposal No. 1”) as described more fully therein and amend the related proxy card (the “Amended Proxy Card”).
On February 14, 2025, the Board decided to postpone the EGM to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 21, 2025 at the offices of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati at 1301 Avenue of the Americas, 40th Floor New York, NY 10019-6022 and the redemption right deadline to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 19, 2025.
On February 14, 2025, the Board further proposed to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the trust account to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination as proposed in the original Proposal 1 to the EGM from an amount equal to $70,000 for all outstanding Public Shares to an amount equal to $0.022 for each outstanding Public Share (the “Second Amended Monthly Extension Fee”). The Second Amended Monthly Extension Fee, if and to the extent approved at the EGM, will become operative for the Monthly Extension Fee beginning on March 23, 2025, and the 23rd of each succeeding month until the earlier of the closing of an initial business combination or February 23, 2026. In light of the Second Amended Monthly Extension Fee, the Company filed a second supplement to the Proxy Statement on February 14, 2025 (the “Supplement No. 2”) with the SEC to, among others, further amend the Proposal No. 1 (the “Second Amended Proposal No. 1”) as described more fully therein and amend the related proxy card (the “Second Amended Proxy Card”), and reflect the aforementioned amended time and redemption right deadline for the EGM. THIS SUPPLEMENT NO.2 SHALL SUPERSEDE AND REPLACE IN ITS ENTIRETY THE SUPPLEMENT NO.1.
On February 19, 2025, the Company filed a third supplement to the Proxy Statement (the “Supplement No. 3”) with the SEC to amend the date when the Second Amended Monthly Extension Fee will become operative from March 23, 2025 to February 23, 2025.
Other than as indicated herein, no other changes have been made to the original Proxy Statement or the proxy card as originally filed and mailed. From and after the date of the Supplement No. 3, any references to the “Proxy Statement” are to the Proxy Statement as amended and supplemented by the Supplement No. 2 and Supplement No. 3 and all the filed additional proxy statement supplements as indicated above.
The Supplement No. 3 is not complete without, and may not be utilized except in connection with, the Proxy Statement, including any supplements and amendments thereto. Shareholders of the Company should read carefully and in their entirety the Supplement No. 3 and the Proxy Statement and all accompanying annexes and exhibits, in particular, the matters discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” on page 11 of the Proxy Statement.
If you have already voted, you do not need to vote again unless you would like to change or revoke your prior vote on any proposal. In addition, stockholders who have already submitted a redemption request with respect to the shares held by them may withdraw such request by contacting our Transfer Agent. If you would like to change or revoke your prior vote on any proposal, or reverse a redemption request, please refer to the Proxy Statement for additional information on how to do so.
If you have already submitted a proxy and do not wish to change your vote, you need not take any further action. If you have submitted a proxy and wish to change your vote, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised at the Extraordinary General Meeting as provided in the Proxy Statement. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in street name by a broker or other nominee and you wish to revoke a proxy, you must contact the broker or nominee to revoke any prior voting instructions.
All of the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 15, 2025 are entitled to vote at the Meeting. We have retained Advantage Proxy, Inc.
