On February 1, 2023, New Vista Acquisition Corp (“New Vista” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent for a business combination with Verijet Holding Company LLC (“Verijet”). A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Completion of the potential business combination is subject to, among other matters, the completion of due diligence, the negotiation of a definitive agreement providing for the potential business combination, satisfaction of the conditions negotiated therein and approval of the potential business combination by board and equity holders of both companies, as well as regulatory approvals. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the parties will successfully negotiate and enter into a definitive agreement, or that the potential business combination will be consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any of the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in any such filing.
