Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed, Coliseum Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) has scheduled an extraordinary general meeting (the “Meeting”) to seek shareholder approval of an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend (the “Extension”) the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination, as described more fully in the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”), filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 3, 2024.

On September 20, 2024, the Company determined to open the Meeting as scheduled on September 20, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, subject to the consent of the members of the Company constituting a quorum as set out in the Company’s amended and restated articles of association, and then adjourn the Meeting to Tuesday, September 24, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Accordingly, the reconvened Meeting will be held at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of White & Case LLP, the Company’s legal counsel, located at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020.

As previously disclosed, the Company has determined to allow redemption reversals so that no more than 2,000,000 shares remain in the public float following redemptions. Shareholders who have previously submitted shares for redemption or who have voted by proxy do not need to do anything prior to the Meeting unless they change their decision as to redemption or voting. Shareholders may withdraw redemptions at any time until the vote is taken with respect to the Extension. Shareholders may request to reverse their redemption by contacting the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at One State Street, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004 (e-mail: [email protected]).
