Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously announced, on June 1, 2023, Seaport Global Acquisition II Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SGII”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 14, 2023 (“Merger Agreement”), by and among SGII, Lithium Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of SGII (“Merger Sub”), and American Battery Materials, Inc. (OTC Pink: BLTH), a Delaware corporation (“ABM”). ABM is an exploration stage company focused on environmentally friendly direct lithium extraction and other minerals critical to the global energy transition. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into ABM, with ABM surviving the merger (the “Merger” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). As a result of the Transactions, ABM will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of SGII, with the stockholders of ABM becoming stockholders of SGII.

On October 4, 2023, SGII and ABM released a revised version of ABM’s corporate presentation (the “Corporate Presentation”).

A copy of the Corporate Presentation is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference. The Corporate Presentation is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Important Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the Transactions, SGII has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) that includes a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). SGII’s stockholders and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the Registration Statement, as these materials contain important information about ABM, SGII and the Transactions. This communication is not a substitute for the Registration Statement or any other document that SGII will send to its stockholders in connection with the Transactions. When available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus contained in the Registration Statement will be mailed to stockholders of SGII as of a record date to be established for voting on, among other things, the proposed Transactions. Stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the Registration Statement and other documents filed with the SEC that will be incorporated by reference therein, without charge, once available, at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, the websites referenced in this communication is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this communication.

Participants in the Solicitation

SGII, ABM and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from SGII’s stockholders in connection with the proposed Transactions. SGII’s and ABM’s stockholders and other interested persons may obtain, without charge, more detailed information regarding the directors and officers of SGII and ABM in SGII's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 4, 2023 and ABM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 21, 2023. Information regarding the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies to SGII stockholders in connection with the proposed Transactions will be set forth in the proxy statement for the proposed Transactions when available. Additional information regarding the interests of participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed Transactions will be included in the Registration Statement that SGII has filed with the SEC.

No Offer or Solicitation

This communication is for informational purposes only and shall neither constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or to vote in any jurisdiction pursuant to the Transactions or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. All statements, other than statements of present or historical fact included in this communication, regarding SGII’s proposed Transactions with ABM, SGII's ability to consummate the transaction, the benefits of the transaction and the combined company’s future financial performance, as well as the combined company’s strategy, future operations, estimated financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, and the target grades and tonnages information are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on the current expectations of the respective management of SGII and ABM and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of SGII or ABM. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the business combination, including the risk that any regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the business combination or that the approval of the stockholders of SGII or ABM is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of business combination; risk relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to ABM; the amount of redemption requests made by SGII's stockholders; the overall level of consumer demand for lithium; general economic conditions and other factors affecting; disruption and volatility in the global currency, capital, and credit markets; ABM's ability to implement its business and growth strategy; changes in governmental regulation, ABM's exposure to litigation claims and other loss contingencies; disruptions and other impacts to ABM’s business, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response, and as a result of the proposed transaction; ABM's ability to comply with environmental regulations; competitive pressures from many sources, including those, having more experience and better financing; changes in technology that adversely affect demand for lithium compounds; the impact that global climate change trends may have on ABM and its potential mining operations; any breaches of, or interruptions in, SGII's or ABM’s information systems; fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of electricity and other raw materials and contracted products as well as foreign currency fluctuations; changes in tax laws and liabilities, tariffs, legal, regulatory, political and economic risks.

More information on potential factors that could affect SGII’s or ABM's financial results is included from time to time in SGII's and ABM’s public reports filed with the SEC, including their Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K as well as the Registration Statement that SGII has filed with the SEC in connection with SGII’s solicitation of proxies for the meeting of stockholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed Transactions. If any of these risks materialize or SGII's or ABM's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither SGII nor ABM presently know, or that SGII and ABM currently believe are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect SGII's and ABM's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. SGII and ABM anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause their assessments to change. However, while SGII and ABM may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, SGII and ABM specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing SGII's or ABM's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
