Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously announced, New Vista Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) did not consummate an initial business combination by February 19, 2023—the deadline under its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association

The Company, as promptly as possible, but no later than March 6, 2023, will redeem (the “Redemption”) 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Public Shares”). In the Redemption, funds held in the Company’s trust account, less $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and net of taxes payable, will be distributed to each holder of Public Shares on a pro rata basis (such amount, the “Redemption Amount”). Based upon the amount held in the trust account as of February 21, 2023, which was $281,196,292.62, the Company estimates that the per-share Redemption Amount will be approximately $10.18. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless upon the liquidation of the Company. On the Redemption date, the Public Shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the Redemption Amount.

The Company’s Public Shares, as well as the Company’s publicly traded units and warrants, ceased trading as of the close of business on February 21, 2023. In addition, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC filed a Form 25 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist the Company’s securities. The Company will file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

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.

Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
