Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 3, 2023, Games & Esports Experience Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”) to the Company’s sponsor, GEEX Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), which provides for borrowings from time to time of up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 which may be drawn by the Company and used for working capital purposes and/or to finance monthly deposits into the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) for each public share that is not redeemed in connection with the extension of the Company’s termination date from March 7, 2023 (the “Termination Date”) to December 7, 2023. The Sponsor Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or the date the Company liquidates the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate an initial business combination within the requisite time period. Upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, the Sponsor shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the entire principal balance of the Sponsor Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The terms of such private placement warrants (if issued) will be identical to the terms of the private placement warrants issued by the Company in a private placement concurrent with the closing of the IPO and subject to the terms of that certain Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and that certain letter agreement, dated as of December 1, 2021, among the Company, the Sponsor and certain other parties thereto. The Sponsor Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of any of which automatically triggers the unpaid principal balance of the Sponsor Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Sponsor Note becoming immediately due and payable.

On March 3, 2023, the Company borrowed $350,000 under the Sponsor Note and deposited $140,000 into the Trust Account to fund the initial one-month extension of the Company’s Termination Date until April 7, 2023.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosure contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.03.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On March 6, 2023, shareholders of the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), where the shareholders of the Company approved by special resolution an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the “Charter”) to: (A) extend the date by which the Company has to complete an initial business combination from the Termination Date to December 7, 2023, by electing to extend the date to consummate an initial business combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each time after the Termination Date, until December 7, 2023, unless the closing of the Company’s initial business combination shall have occurred, provided that the Sponsor (or its affiliates or permitted designees) will deposit into the Trust Account for each such one-month extension period the lesser of (i) an aggregate of $140,000 or (ii) $0.05 per public share that remains outstanding and is not redeemed prior to any such one-month extension; and (B) cancel the automatic three-month extension period in the Company’s Charter to which the Company was entitled upon filing a preliminary proxy statement, registration statement or similar filing for an initial business combination during (i) the 15-month period from the consummation of the Company’s IPO or (ii) any paid extension period, to consummate an initial business combination.

A copy of the special resolution adopting the Charter Amendment is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting, the following proposal was considered and acted upon by the shareholders of the Company: a proposal to approve by special resolution the Charter Amendment (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”). The number of votes cast for or against, as well as the number of abstentions as to each proposal, are set forth below.

Extension Amendment Proposal

Votes For		Votes Against		Abstentions
19,892,353		2,218,771		0

Accordingly, the Extension Amendment Proposal was approved.

As there were sufficient votes at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve the above proposal by special resolution, the Adjournment Proposal, which had been previously voted on by proxy, was not presented to shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

The Company expects that The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC will file a Form 25 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to delist the Company’s securities. The Company thereafter expects to file a Form 15 with the Commission to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company anticipates that its securities, including the Public Shares, will cease trading at or around the close of business on April 12, 2023.

Beneficial owners of the Public Shares held in “street name” will not need to take any action in order to receive their pro rata portion of the Redemption Amount. Holders of registered Public Shares will need to present their respective shares to the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to receive their pro rata portion of the Redemption Amount.
