Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On April 30, 2025 and May 1, 2025, ClimateRock (the “Company”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the following proposals were considered and acted upon by the shareholders of the Company:
(a) a proposal to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate an initial Business Combination from May 2, 2025 to November 2, 2025 (or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s board of directors in its sole discretion) (the “Extension Amendment Proposal” and such amendment to the Articles, the “Extension Amendment”);
(b) a proposal to amend the Articles to eliminate the limitation that the Company may not redeem Public Shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company 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 the Company to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal” and such amendment, together with the Extension Amendment, the “Articles Amendment”); and
(c) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of any of the foregoing proposals (the “Adjournment Proposal”).
The number of votes cast for or against, as well as the number of abstentions as to each proposal, are set forth below.

Shareholders holding 2,058,545 Public Shares exercised their right to redeem such Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. The final per share redemption amount is currently being calculated. The Company has estimated it to be approximately $12.17 per share and will file an amended Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the final amount if it is materially different from the estimated amount. As a result, approximately $25.06 million will be removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders (the “Meeting Redemptions”). Following the Meeting Redemptions, there will be 406,678 Public Shares issued and outstanding.
The Company filed the Articles Amendment with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies on May 2, 2025. A copy of the Articles Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1, and is incorporated by reference.
