As previously disclosed, on July 31, 2022, Social Leverage Acquisition Corp I (“SLAC”), a Delaware corporation, entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Original BCA”), with SLAC Merger Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SLAC (“Merger Sub”), and W3BCLOUD Holdings Inc. (“W3BCLOUD”), a Delaware corporation, which agreement was amended on April 21, 2023 (the “BCA Amendment” and together with the Original BCA, the “BCA”) relating to the contemplated business combination among the parties thereto.

Termination of BCA

On September 22, 2023, the parties to the BCA entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to mutually terminate the BCA, pursuant to Section 10.01 (a) of the BCA, effective as of September 22, 2023 (the “Termination”).

As a result of the Termination, the BCA will be of no further force and effect, and the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the BCA) will either be terminated in accordance with their terms or be of no further force and effect. Neither party will be required to pay the other any fees or expenses as a result of the Termination. SLAC and W3BCLOUD have also agreed, on behalf of themselves and their respective related parties, to a release of claims relating to the transactions contemplated under the BCA.

The foregoing description of the Termination and the Termination Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the full text of the Termination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and the full text of the BCA, a copy of which was previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as Exhibit 2.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K on August 1, 2022, as amended by the BCA Amendment, a copy of which was previously filed with the SEC as Exhibit 2.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K on April 21, 2023.
