Dear Sir or Madam:

Pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Banzai International, Inc. (the “Company”), hereby requests withdrawal of its Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-278218), filed on February 11, 2026, together with all exhibits and amendments thereto (the “Document”), as the Document was filed in error as a Post Effective Amendment, but should be filed as a new registration statement on Form S-8, which is being filed on this same date.

Accordingly, the Company hereby respectfully requests that a written order granting the withdrawal of the Document be issued by the Commission.

Should you have any questions regarding this request for withdrawal, please contact our counsel Louis Taubman of Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC at 917-512-0827.
