Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Entry into Non-Redemption Agreements
On June 6, 2025, Welsbach
Technology Metals Acquisition Corp. (“WTMA”) filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A for the purposes of calling
a special meeting of WTMA’s stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to approve, among other proposals, an amendment to
WTMA’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which it has to consummate an initial business combination
from June 30, 2025 to September 30, 2025 (the “Extension”).
On June 20, 2025 and June
23, 2025, in connection with the Special Meeting, WTMA and Welsbach Acquisition Holdings LLC (the “Sponsor”) entered into
non-redemption agreements (“Non-Redemption Agreements”) with several unaffiliated third-party holders of WTMA’s common
stock (the “Investors”) on substantially the same terms in exchange for their agreement to not redeem up to an aggregate of
465,880 shares of the WTMA’s common stock (the “Non-Redeemed Shares”) in connection with the Special Meeting. In exchange
for the foregoing commitment not to redeem such shares, the Sponsor and WTMA have agreed to cause the surviving entity (“MergeCo”)
of any future WTMA initial business combination to issue to the Investors up to an aggregate of 23,294 ordinary shares of MergeCo immediately
following the consummation of an initial business combination if the Investors continue to hold such Non-Redeemed Shares through the Special
Meeting.
The Non-Redemption Agreements
shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the failure of WTMA’s stockholders to approve the Extension at the Special Meeting, (ii) WTMA’s
determination not to proceed with the Extension, (iii) the fulfillment of all obligations of parties to the Non-Redemption Agreements,
(iv) the liquidation or dissolution of WTMA, (v) the mutual written agreement of the parties or (vi) if the applicable Investor exercises
its redemption rights with respect to any Non-Redeemed Shares in connection with the Special Meeting and such Non-Redeemed Shares are
actually redeemed.
The foregoing summary of the
Non-Redemption Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Non-Redemption
Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information disclosed
in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The shares of WTMA common stock being
offered to Investors pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreements will be issued pursuant to one or more exemptions under Rule 4(a)(2) or
Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 based on representations made by the Investors in the Non-Redemption Agreements.
BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, INVESTORS
AND SECURITY HOLDERS OF WTMA ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND ALL OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED OR THAT WILL BE FILED WITH THE
SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT
PROPOSAL.
