Filing Explained

The director compensation is a transfer of 50,000 Class B ordinary shares from the sponsor to Lauren Selig, rather than a company issuance of additional shares; therefore, this filing does not disclose share-count dilution from that compensation arrangement.

indemnity agreement regulatory
"In connection with her appointment, Ms. Selig has entered into an indemnity agreement"
letter agreement regulatory
"Ms. Selig is become a signatory to the letter agreement, dated May 14, 2025"
initial business combination financial
"agreed to vote any Class A Ordinary Shares held by her in favor of the Company’s initial business combination"
An initial business combination is the deal in which a special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merges with or acquires an operating business to bring that business onto public markets. Think of the SPAC as an empty shell that raises money from investors, then uses that cash to buy a private company—this transaction turns the private company into a public one and often changes its ownership, valuation, and access to capital, so investors should watch for shifts in risk, future growth prospects, and shareholder rights.
Class B ordinary shares financial
"will transfer 50,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company to Ms. Selig"
Class B ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company that typically come with different voting rights or privileges compared to other share classes. For investors, they represent a way to hold part of the company’s value and influence its decisions, often with fewer voting rights than Class A shares. Understanding these shares helps investors assess their level of control and potential returns within a company.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On July 21, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Renatus Tactical Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”) appointed Lauren Selig (the “Directors”) as a director of the Company, effective immediately. Ms. Selig was also appointed to the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

 

Lauren Selig has over 25 years of experience in the entertainment, technology, artificial intelligence, blockchain and venture investment industries. Since 2013, Ms. Selig has served as the founder of Shake and Bake Productions, where she focuses on investing in, financing and producing film, television and investing in technology, space, artificial intelligence and biotechnology-related ventures. Ms. Selig currently serves on the boards of the XPRIZE, and Pendrell Corporation. She also serves as an advisor to various private companies including Poolside AI, New Republic Pictures, Tabit, Lila AI, Pulse Space and Accrete and has made investments in dozens of technology and growth-stage companies over the span of her career. Ms. Selig received a Bachelor of Science in International Relations from Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service and the London School of Economics. She also earned a Juris Doctor and a Master of Business Administration, with a focus on technology management, from Northwestern University and the University of Washington, respectively. Ms. Selig is well qualified to serve on our Board due to her extensive experience in entrepreneurship, strategic investments, corporate governance and finance.

 

In connection with her appointment, Ms. Selig has entered into an indemnity agreement and a letter agreement with the Company on the same terms as the indemnity agreement and letter agreement entered into by the directors and officers of the Company at the time of the Company’s initial public offering.

 

The Company has entered into an indemnity agreement with Ms. Selig in the same form as its standard form of indemnification agreement with its other directors and in the same form as previously filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 19, 2025. Furthermore, Ms. Selig is become a signatory to the letter agreement, dated May 14, 2025 as previously filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 19, 2025 entered into by the Company and its directors and officers in connection with the Company’ initial public offering, pursuant to which Ms. Selig has agreed to vote any Class A Ordinary Shares held by her in favor of the Company’s initial business combination; to facilitate the liquidation and winding up of the Company if an initial business combination is not consummated within 24 months (or up to 30 months by resolution of the Board) or such longer period as is approved by the Company’s shareholders; and to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company’s securities.

 

There are no family relationships between Ms. Selig and any other director or executive officer of the Company, and Ms. Selig was not selected by the Board to serve as a director pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any person. Ms. Selig will not be compensated by the Company for her services as a director and has not entered into an employment agreement with the Company. However, International SPAC Management Group I LLC, the Company’s sponsor, will transfer 50,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company to Ms. Selig as compensation for her services as a director of the Company. Ms. Selig has not engaged in any transaction that would be reportable as a related party transaction under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
