On December 3, 2024, ESH Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, holders of 13,588,442 of the Company’s shares of common stock were represented in person or by proxy, which represented approximately 92.68% of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote as of the record date of October 31, 2024.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to provide the Company with the right to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination (the “Business Combination”), for up to 12 additional one-month periods after December 16, 2024 (and ultimately no later than December 16, 2025) (the “Extension Amendment” and, such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”). The Company’s shareholders also approved a proposal to amend the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated June 13, 2023, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”), to give the Company the right to extend the date on which Continental must liquidate the Trust Account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering if the Company has not completed its initial business combination, for up to 12 additional one-month periods after December 16, 2024 (and ultimately no later than December 16, 2025) (the “Trust Amendment” and, such proposal, the “Trust Amendment Proposal”).

The Company filed the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on December 4, 2024.

The foregoing description of the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the full texts of the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 10.1 hereto, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On December 2, 2024, ESH Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) elected to convert 2,865,000 of the 2,875,000 shares of Class B common stock held by the Sponsor into 2,865,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to Section 4.3(b)(i) of Article IV of the Company’s existing Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (such shares the “Converted Shares” and such conversion the “Conversion”). The Conversion is effective as of December 2, 2024.

The Converted Shares are subject to the same restrictions as applied to the Class B founder shares before the Conversion, including, among other things, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of an initial business combination as described in the prospectus for the Company’s initial public offering. The Sponsor, with respect to itself, acknowledged that it has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Converted Shares held by it.

In connection with the votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal, the holders of 10,760,119 shares of Class A common stock properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash.

After giving effect to the redemptions and Conversion described above, there will be (i) an aggregate of 3,892,381 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, comprised of 1,027,381 shares of Class A common stock held by public shareholders and 2,865,000 shares of Class A common stock that were converted from the Class B founder shares, and (ii) 10,000 remaining Class B founder shares.
