On December 16, 2022, Leo Holdings Corp. II ("Leo") filed a definitive proxy
statement (the "Extension Proxy Statement") for an extraordinary general meeting
of its shareholders to be held on January 9, 2023 to consider and act upon a
proposal to extend the date (the "Termination Date") by which Leo must complete
an initial business combination to April 12, 2023 (the "Charter Extension Date")
and to allow Leo, without the need for another shareholder vote, to elect to
extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly
basis, for up to six times, by an additional one month each time, after the
Charter Extension Date, by resolution of Leo's board of directors, if requested
by Leo Investors II Limited Partnership, a Cayman Islands exempted limited
partnership. The Extension Proxy Statement was mailed to Leo shareholders of
record as of December 12, 2022. Shareholders may obtain a copy of the Extension
Proxy Statement at the SEC's website (www.sec.gov).
As set forth in the Extension Proxy Statement, the deadline by which Leo public
shareholders had to complete the procedures for electing to redeem their Class A
ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Ordinary Shares"), was 5:00
p.m., Eastern Time, on January 5, 2023 ("Redemption Deadline"). The initial
number of Ordinary Shares tendered for redemption prior to the Redemption
Deadline was 34,464,323. The deadline for shareholders to withdraw previously
