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

On October 12, 2023, Leo held the Extension Meeting, to amend Leo’s memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles Amendment”) to (i) extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which Leo has to consummate a business combination from October 12, 2023 (the “Original Termination Date”) to November 12, 2023 (the “Articles Extension Date”) and to allow Leo, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by resolution of Leo’s board of directors if requested by Leo Investors II Limited Partnership, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadlines, until October 12, 2024, or a total of up to twelve months after the Original Termination Date, unless the closing of an initial business combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (ii) remove the limitation that Leo may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in Leo having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow Leo to redeem public shares, irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”). The shareholders of Leo approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal at the Extension Meeting and on October 12, 2023, Leo filed the Articles Amendment with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

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

On October 12, 2023, Leo held the Extension Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal and a proposal to allow the adjournment of the Extension Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, (1) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Extension Meeting, there were insufficient ordinary shares of Leo represented at the Extension Meeting (either in person or by proxy) to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal or (2) where the board of directors of Leo has determined it is otherwise necessary (the “Adjournment Proposal”), each as described in the Definitive Proxy Statement. As there were sufficient votes at the Extension Meeting to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was not presented to shareholders.

Holders of 12,263,721 ordinary shares of Leo held of record as of September 19, 2023, the record date for the Extension Meeting, were present in person or by proxy, representing approximately 87.9% of the voting power of Leo’s ordinary shares as of the record date for the Extension Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business.

The voting results for the proposals were as follows:

The Extension Amendment Proposal

For		Against		Abstain
12,263,621		100		0

The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal

For		Against		Abstain
12,263,621		100		0

In connection with the vote to approve the Articles Amendment, the holders of 586,767 Class A ordinary shares of Leo properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.88 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $6,385,788.

~~The~~Item ~~foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive~~9. Please carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the final prospectus to Leo’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No01. ~~333-249676), the Registration~~ ~~Statement~~Financial ~~(as~~Statements ~~defined below) filed with the SEC by Leo~~ and ~~other documents filed or that may be filed by Leo from time to time with the SEC~~Exhibits. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that none of Leo or World View presently know or that Leo or World View 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 Leo’s and World View’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of these communications. Leo and World View anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Leo’s and World View’s assessments to change. However, while Leo and World View may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Leo and World View specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Leo’s and World View’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of these communications. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Certain market data information in these communications is based on the estimates of World View and Leo management. World View and Leo obtained the industry, market and competitive position data used throughout these communications from internal estimates and research as well as from industry publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. World View and Leo believe their estimates to be accurate as of the date of these communications. However, this information may prove to be inaccurate because of the method by which World View or Leo obtained some of the data for its estimates or because this information cannot always be verified due to the limits on the availability and reliability of raw data and the voluntary nature of the data gathering process.
