EXPLANATORY NOTE
The purpose of this supplement (this “Supplement”) to the definitive Proxy Statement of M3-Brigade Acquisition V Corp., Inc. (the “Company”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2026 (the “Proxy Statement”), relating to the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 15, 2026 (the “Meeting”), is to amend and replace the proxy card included in the Proxy Statement. After filing the Proxy Statement, the Company discovered that, due to an inadvertent error, an incorrect version of the proxy card was filed that incorrectly stated Proposal 3(d) relating to an advisory vote to approve provisions in the Proposed Charter to the Company’s authorized share capital. Proposal 3(d) was correctly described in the Proxy Statement. A copy of the new proxy card is attached to this Supplement. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Supplement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Proxy Statement.
The error was discovered before the proxy card was mailed to or otherwise distributed to stockholders and before the Company began soliciting stockholders for the Meeting and was corrected prior to mailing. The Proxy Statement itself and the link for voting by internet each correctly describe Proposal 3(d).
There are no changes to the proposals to be acted upon at the Meeting, which are described in the Proxy Statement. Except as amended or supplemented by the information contained in this Supplement, all information set forth in the Proxy Statement continues to apply and should be considered in voting your shares. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement. From and after the date of this Supplement, any references to the “Proxy Statement” are to the Proxy Statement as supplemented hereby.
Any completed proxy card submitted by stockholders before the date of this Supplement will be disregarded and stockholders should resubmit their vote using the proxy card attached to this Supplement.
Your vote is important. Please use the new proxy card distributed with this Supplement to vote your shares.
The date of this Supplement to Proxy Statement is May 20, 2026.
