GigCapital5, Inc. Confirms Receipt of Sponsor Funds to Extend Period of Time to Consummate Business Combination and for Additional Working Capital

GigCapital5, Inc. (“GigCapital5” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GIA.U; GIA; GIA.WS), a blank check company, also commonly referred to as a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, announced that GigAcquisitions5, LLC (the “Sponsor”), has funded the trust account maintained with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Account”) with an additional $160,000 payment. In consideration for the deposit, the Company has amended and restated the existing unsecured interest free promissory note to include the additional loan amount, so the aggregate principal amount under such promissory note together with similar deposits made on September 26, 2022 and October 26, 2022 was increased to the total of $480,000. Such principal amount will be repaid in connection with the closing of GigCapital5’s initial business combination. As a result of the deposits into the Trust Account, the period of time that GigCapital5 has to consummate a business combination has been extended by a month to December 28, 2022 (and may be extended thereafter on a monthly basis until March 28, 2023 upon payment of a monthly fee equal to $160,000).

In addition, on November 28, 2022, the Company amended the existing working capital promissory note issued to the Sponsor to include the additional loan amount of $65,000, so the aggregate principal amount under such working capital promissory note was increased to the total of $195,000. The promissory note is non-interest bearing and may be converted at the Sponsor’s election upon the consummation of the initial business combination into units identical to the private placement units issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering at a price of $10.00 per unit.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The expectations, estimates, and projections of GigCapital5 may differ from their actual results and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, future extensions, expectations with respect to closing of the proposed business combination, the repayment of the promissory note upon such closing of the proposed business combination, and the timing of the completion of the proposed business combination. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting GigCapital5 will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control of GigCapital5 and the party with which it has proposed to consummate a business combination, QT Imaging, Inc. (“QT”), and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the negotiations and any subsequent definitive agreements with respect to the proposed business combination, and the possibility that the terms and conditions set forth in any definitive agreements with respect to the proposed business combination may differ materially from the terms and conditions set forth in the term sheet, (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the parties following the announcement of the proposed business combination and any definitive agreements with respect thereto; (3) the inability to complete the proposed business combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of GigCapital5 and QT or other conditions to closing, including the failure of the stockholders of GigCapital5 to approve the extension of time for GigCapital5 to consummate its initial business combination at the upcoming annual meeting of stockholders of GigCapital5 that GigCapital5 intends to hold; (4) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on (x) the parties’ ability to negotiate and consummate the proposed business combination and (y) the business of QT and the surviving company; (5) the receipt of an unsolicited offer from another party for an alternative business transaction that could interfere with the proposed business combination; (6) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the surviving company’s common stock on The New York Stock Exchange or any other national stock exchange following the proposed business combination; (7) the risk that the proposed business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the proposed business combination; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the surviving company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (9) costs related to the proposed business combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the demand for QT’s and the surviving company’s services together with the possibility that QT or the surviving company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (12) risks and uncertainties related to QT’s business, including, but not limited to, the ability of QT to increase sales of its output products in accordance with its plan; and (13) other risks and uncertainties included in (x) the “Risk Factors” sections of the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC by GigCapital5 and (y) other documents filed or to be filed with the SEC by GigCapital5. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on information available to GigCapital5 as of the date hereof, and GigCapital5 assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
