THE EXTENSION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL, THE TRUST AMENDMENT PROPOSAL AND, IF PRESENTED, THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL. </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company&rsquo;s charter provides that the Company has the right
to extend the period to complete a business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Combination Period</I></B>&rdquo;) two times by an additional
three months each time (for a total of 18 months to complete a business combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company
to consummate a business combination without the need for a separate stockholder vote under the charter, the Sponsor or its affiliate
or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $1,235,000 ($0.10 per public share) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline.
On March 13, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $1, 235,000 to extend the Combination Period from March 15, 2023 to June 15, 2023. Given current
market conditions, the Sponsor would like to pay extension fees that are substantially less than the $411,666.67 per month required for
the permitted extensions under the existing charter. The Company expects that there will be significant redemptions at the special meeting.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment will provide the Company
with additional time to complete its proposed business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Proposed Business Combination</I></B>&rdquo;) pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, dated as of February 16, 2023, as it may be amended, which provides for a business combination between the Company
and Honeycomb Battery Company, an Ohio corporation (the &ldquo;<B><I>Seller</I></B>&rdquo;). While we have entered into a definitive
agreement with the Seller in respect of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company&rsquo;s board of directors (the &ldquo;<B><I>Board</I></B>&rdquo;)
currently believes that there will not be sufficient time before June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination Period is extended in accordance
with the terms of the existing charter) to hold a special meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder approval of the Proposed
Business Combination. Accordingly, our Board believes that the Extension is necessary in order to be able to consummate the Proposed
Business Combination. Therefore, our Board has determined that it is in the best interests of our stockholders to extend the date by
which the Company must consummate a business combination to the Extended Date in order to provide our stockholders with the opportunity
to consider the Proposed Business Combination. The purpose of the Adjournment Proposal is to allow the Company to adjourn the special
meeting to a later date or dates if we determine that additional time is necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies
in the event that there are insufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal or if we
determine that additional time is necessary to effectuate the Extension. Each of the Company, Mach FM Acquisitions LLC or any of their
respective affiliates (the &ldquo;<B><I>Contributors</I></B>&rdquo;) have agreed that if the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust
Amendment Proposal are approved, they will contribute to the trust account the lesser of (a) $125,000 and (b) $0.045 per share per month
for each one-month Extension, (or approximately $0.008 per share assuming no redemptions), paid on a month-to-month and as-needed basis
(each being referred to herein as a &ldquo;<B><I>Contribution</I></B>&rdquo;), upon five days&rsquo; advance notice prior to the applicable
deadlines, to extend the Combination Period for an additional one (1) month period each time, up to six (6) times, until December 15,
2023. Each Contribution will be deposited in the trust account within two business days prior to the beginning of the additional extension
period (or portion thereof).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Contributors will not make any Contribution unless the Extension
Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are both approved and the Combination Period is extended. The Contribution(s) will
not bear any interest. The Contributions will be lost if the Company is unable to consummate an initial business combination except to
the extent of any funds held outside of the trust account. The Company will have the sole discretion whether to continue extending the
time to complete a business combination until the Extended Date, and if the Company determines not to continue extending for an additional
period, any obligation to make additional Contributions will terminate. If this occurs, or if the Company&rsquo;s board of directors otherwise
determines that the Company will not be able to consummate an initial business combination by the Extended Date and does not wish to seek
an additional Extension, the Company would wind up the Company&rsquo;s affairs and redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares in accordance
with the same procedures set forth below that would be applicable if the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal
are not approved.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The affirmative vote of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the
Company&rsquo;s outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, held by the Company&rsquo;s public
stockholders (the &ldquo;<B><I>public shares</I></B>&rdquo;), and the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001
per share, held by the Company&rsquo;s initial stockholders (the &ldquo;<B><I>founder shares</I></B>&rdquo; and, together with the
public shares, the &ldquo;<B><I>common stock</I></B>&rdquo;), will be required to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, and the
affirmative vote of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the Company&rsquo;s outstanding shares of common stock will be required to
approve the Trust Amendment Proposal. Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal is a condition
to the implementation of the Extension. Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the
votes cast by stockholders represented in person (including virtually) or by proxy at the special meeting.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our Board has fixed the close of business on June 1, 2023 as the record
date for determining the Company&rsquo;s stockholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the special meeting and any adjournment
thereof. Only holders of record of the Company&rsquo;s common stock on that date are entitled to have their votes counted at the special
meeting or any adjournment thereof. A complete list of stockholders of record entitled to vote at the special meeting will be available
for ten days before the special meeting at the Company&rsquo;s principal executive offices for inspection by stockholders during ordinary
business hours for any purpose germane to the special meeting.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal, holders of public
shares (&ldquo;<B><I>public stockholders</I></B>&rdquo;) may elect to redeem their public shares for a per share price, payable in cash,
equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to such approval, including interest
earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding
public shares (the &ldquo;<B><I>Election</I></B>&rdquo;), regardless of whether such public stockholders vote on the Extension Amendment
Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal. If the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are approved by the requisite
vote of stockholders, holders of public shares that do not make the Election will retain the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed
in conjunction with the consummation of a business combination, subject to any limitations set forth in our charter, as amended. In addition,
public stockholders who do not make the Election would be entitled to have their public shares redeemed for cash if the Company has not
completed a business combination by the Extended Date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company estimates that the per share price at which the public
shares may be redeemed from cash held in the trust account will be approximately $130,318,463.393 at the time of the special meeting.
The closing price of the Company&rsquo;s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on May 30, 2023, was $<FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; background-color: white">10.54</FONT>.
Accordingly, if the market price were to remain the same until the date of the special meeting, exercising redemption rights would result
in a public stockholder receiving approximately $0.09 more per share than if such stockholder sold the public shares in the open market.
The Company cannot assure public stockholders that they will be able to sell their public shares in the open market, even if the market
price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when such
stockholders wish to sell their shares.</P>

Proposal, and, if necessary the Adjournment Proposal, is more fully described herein. The special meeting will be a virtual meeting. You

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company&rsquo;s charter provides that the Company has the right
to extend the period to complete a business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Combination Period</I></B>&rdquo;) two times by an additional
three months each time (for a total of 18 months to complete a business combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company
to consummate a business combination without the need for a separate stockholder vote under the charter, the Sponsor or its affiliate
or designees must deposit into the trust account $1,235,000 ($0.10 per public share) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline.
On March 13, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $1, 235,000 to extend the Combination Period from March 15, 2023 to June 15, 2023. Given current
market conditions, the Sponsor would like to pay extension fees that are substantially less than the $411,666.67 per month required for
the permitted extensions under the existing charter. The Company expects that there will be significant redemptions at the special meeting.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment will provide the Company
with additional time to complete its proposed business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Proposed Business Combination</I></B>&rdquo;) pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, dated as of February 16, 2023, as it may be amended, which provides for a business combination between the Company
and Honeycomb Battery Company, an Ohio corporation (the &ldquo;<B><I>Seller</I></B>&rdquo;). While we have entered into a definitive agreement
with the Seller in respect of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company&rsquo;s board of directors (the &ldquo;<B><I>Board</I></B>&rdquo;)
currently believes that there will not be sufficient time before June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination Period is extended in accordance
with the terms of the existing charter) to hold a special meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder approval of the Proposed
Business Combination. Accordingly, our Board believes that the Extension is necessary in order to be able to consummate the Proposed Business
Combination. Therefore, our Board has determined that it is in the best interests of our stockholders to extend the date by which the
Company must consummate a business combination to the Extended Date in order to provide our stockholders with the opportunity to consider
the Proposed Business Combination. The purpose of the Adjournment Proposal is to allow the Company to adjourn the special meeting to a
later date or dates if we determine that additional time is necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event
that there are insufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal or if we determine that
additional time is necessary to effectuate the Extension.</P>

Extension (or approximately $0.008 per share assuming no redemptions), paid on a month-to-month and as-needed basis (each being referred

extend the Combination Period for an additional one (1) month period each time, up to six (6) times, until December 15, 2023. Each Contribution

time to complete a business combination until the Extended Date, and if the Company determines not to continue extending for an additional
period, any obligation to make additional Contributions will terminate. If this occurs, or if the Company&rsquo;s board of directors otherwise
determines that the Company will not be able to consummate an initial business combination by the Extended Date and does not wish to seek
an additional Extension, the Company would wind up the Company&rsquo;s affairs and redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares in accordance

regardless of whether such public stockholders vote on the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal. If the Extension
Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are approved by the requisite vote of stockholders, the holders of public shares that
do not make the Election will retain the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed in conjunction with the consummation of a business
combination, subject to any limitations set forth in our charter, as amended. In addition, public stockholders who do not make the Election
would be entitled to have their public shares redeemed for cash if the Company has not completed a business combination by the Extended

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The withdrawal of funds from the trust account in connection with the
Election will reduce the amount held in the trust account following the Election, and the amount remaining in the trust account after
such withdrawal may be only a fraction of the $130,318,463.393 (including interest, but less the funds used to pay taxes) that was in
the trust account as of May 26, 2023. In such event, the Company may still seek to obtain additional funds to complete a business combination,
and there can be no assurance that such funds will be available on terms acceptable to the parties or at all. The Company will not use
the proceeds placed in the trust account and the interest earned thereon to pay any excise taxes or any other similar fees or taxes in
nature that may be imposed on the Company pursuant to any current, pending or future rules or laws, including without limitation any excise
tax due imposed under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 on any redemptions or stock buybacks by the Company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company estimates that the per share price at which the public
shares may be redeemed from cash held in the trust account will be approximately $130,318,463.393 at the time of the special meeting.
The closing price of the Company&rsquo;s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market (the &ldquo;<B><I>NASDAQ</I></B>&rdquo;) on May 30,
2023, was $10.54&#9;. Accordingly, if the market price were to remain the same until the date of the special meeting, exercising redemption
rights would result in a public stockholder receiving approximately $0.09 more per share than if such stockholder sold the public shares
in the open market. The Company cannot assure public stockholders that they will be able to sell their public shares in the open market,
even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities
when such stockholders wish to sell their shares.</P>

redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders&rsquo; rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation

the approval of our remaining stockholders and our Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Mach FM Acquisitions LLC (the &ldquo;<B><I>Sponsor</I></B>&rdquo;)
has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company&rsquo;s independent

the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below (i) $10.10 per
public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account
due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay the Company&rsquo;s
taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account and except
as to any claims under the Company&rsquo;s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. However, we have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations,
nor have we independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &ldquo;<B><I>DGCL</I></B>&rdquo;),
stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a
dissolution. If the corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes
reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against
the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period
before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution
is limited to the lesser of such stockholder&rsquo;s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any
liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">However, because the Company will not be complying with Section 280
of the DGCL, Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires the Company to adopt a plan, based on facts known to the Company at such time that will
provide for our payment of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against the Company within the subsequent
ten years following our dissolution. However, because the Company is a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our
operations have been limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from
our vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, etc.) or prospective target businesses.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">If the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal
are approved, such approval will constitute consent for the Company to (i) remove from the trust account an amount (the &ldquo;<B><I>Withdrawal
Amount</I></B>&rdquo;) equal to the number of public shares properly redeemed multiplied by the per share price, equal to the aggregate
amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to such approval, including interest earned on the funds held
in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares
and (ii) deliver to the holders of such redeemed public shares their portion of the Withdrawal Amount. The remainder of such funds shall
remain in the trust account and be available for use by the Company to complete a business combination on or before the Extended Date.
Holders of public shares who do not redeem their public shares now will retain their redemption rights and their ability to vote on a
business combination through the Extended Date if the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are approved.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">There is currently uncertainty
concerning the applicability of the Investment Company Act to a special purpose acquisition company (&ldquo;SPAC&rdquo;) and we may in
the future be subject to a claim that we have been operating as an unregistered investment company. If we are deemed to be an investment
company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we might be forced to abandon our efforts to complete an initial business combination
and instead be required to liquidate. If we are required to liquidate, our investors would not be able to realize the benefits of owning
stock in a successor operating business, including the potential appreciation in the value of our stock and warrants following such a
transaction, and our warrants would expire worthless.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The funds in the trust account
have, since our initial public offering, been held only in U.S. government securities within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16)
of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in United States Treasuries
and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to have
been operating as an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company
Act), we may, in our own discretion, instruct Continental Stock Transfer &amp; Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the trust account,
to liquidate the U.S. government securities or money market funds held in the trust account. This may mean that the amount of funds available
for redemption would not increase, thereby reducing the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation
of the Company.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In addition, the longer that
the funds in the trust account are held in short-term U.S. government securities or in money market funds invested exclusively in such
securities, there is a greater risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we may be required to
liquidate. Accordingly, we may determine, in our discretion, to liquidate the securities held in the trust account at any time.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left"><B>We may not be able to complete an initial business
combination with a U.S. target company since such initial business combination may be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and
review by a U.S. government entity such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Sponsor is not controlled
by and it does not have substantial ties with a non-U.S. person. Patrick Orlando, the manager of the Sponsor, is a U.S. citizen. We do
not expect the Company to be considered a &ldquo;foreign person&rdquo; under the regulations administered by CFIUS. However, if our initial
business combination with a U.S. business is subject to CFIUS review, the scope of which was expanded by the Foreign Investment Risk Review
Modernization Act of 2018 (&ldquo;<B>FIRRMA</B>&rdquo;), to include certain non-passive, non-controlling investments in sensitive U.S.
businesses and certain acquisitions of real estate even with no underlying U.S. business, FIRRMA, and subsequent implementing regulations
that are now in force, also subjects certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If our potential initial business combination
with a U.S. business falls within CFIUS&rsquo;s jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that
we will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS
intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination,
impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order us to divest all or
a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, which may limit the attractiveness of or
prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our
shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete an initial business combination may be limited and
we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign
ownership issues.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Moreover, the process of government
review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and we have limited time to complete our initial business combination. If
we cannot complete our initial business combination within the time permitted under our organizational documents because the review process
drags on beyond such timeframe or because our initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government
entity, we may be required to liquidate. This will also cause you to lose the investment opportunity in a target company and the chance
of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company is a blank check company formed in order to effect a merger,
capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses
or entities. The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on June&nbsp;14, 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On March&nbsp;15, 2022, the Company closed its initial public offering
of 12,350,000&nbsp;units, including the exercise of the over-allotment&nbsp;option to the extent of 1,350,000&nbsp;units, with each unit
consisting of one share of its Class&nbsp;A common stock and one-half&nbsp;of one warrant, each whole warrant to purchase one share of
its Class&nbsp;A common stock at a purchase price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Company&rsquo;s final
prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March&nbsp;14, 2022 (File No.&nbsp;333-261114). The units from the IPO
were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $123,500,000.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the exercise of
the underwriters&rsquo; over-allotment&nbsp;option, the Company consummated the private sale of 5,405,000&nbsp;warrants at $1.00 per warrant
for an aggregate purchase price of $5,405,000. A total of $125,970,000, was deposited into the trust account and the remaining net proceeds
became available to be used as working capital to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations
and continuing general and administrative expenses. The IPO was conducted pursuant to a registration statement on Form&nbsp;S-1&nbsp;that
became effective on March&nbsp;10, 2022.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The trust account was invested in U.S. government securities, within
the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds
meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations,
until the earliest of: (a) the completion of the Company&rsquo;s initial business combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares
properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company&rsquo;s charter (i) to modify the substance or timing of
the Company&rsquo;s obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public
shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 12 months (or up to 18 months if the Combination Period
is extended in accordance with the existing charter) from the closing of the IPO or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating
to stockholders&rsquo; rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (c) the redemption of the Company&rsquo;s public shares
if the Company is unable to complete the initial business combination within the Combination Period (as defined below). Like most blank
check companies, our charter provides for the return of the IPO proceeds held in the trust account to the holders of shares of common
stock sold in the IPO if there is no qualifying business combination consummated on or before a certain date (the &ldquo;<B><I>Combination
Period</I></B>&rdquo;). In our case such certain date is June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination Period is extended in accordance with the
terms of the existing charter). Our Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to amend the Company&rsquo;s
charter to allow the Company to extend the date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis up to six times from June 15,
2023 to December 15, 2023 in order to allow the Company more time to complete a business combination. Therefore, our Board is submitting
the proposals described in this proxy statement for the stockholders to vote upon.</P>

to extend the period to complete a business combination two times by an additional three months each time (for a total of 18 months to
complete a business combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a business combination without the
need for a separate stockholder vote under the charter, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account
$1,235,000 ($0.10 per public share) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On March 13, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $1, 235,000
to extend the Combination Period from March 15, 2023 to June 15, 2023. Given current market conditions, the Sponsor would like to pay

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our charter provides that if our stockholders approve an amendment
to our charter that would affect the substance or timing of the Company&rsquo;s obligation to redeem 100% of the Company&rsquo;s public
shares if the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the Company will provide our public stockholders
with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of common stock upon such approval at a per share price, payable in cash,
equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to such approval, including interest
earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding
public shares. This charter provision was included to protect the Company&rsquo;s stockholders from having to sustain their investments
for an unreasonably long period if the Company failed to find a suitable business combination in the timeframe contemplated by the charter.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Extension Amendment will provide the Company with additional time
to complete its proposed business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Proposed Business Combination</I></B>&rdquo;) pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
dated as of February 16, 2023, as it may be amended, which provides for a business combination between the Company and Honeycomb Battery
Company, an Ohio corporation (the &ldquo;<B><I>Seller</I></B>&rdquo;). While we have entered into a definitive agreement with the Seller
in respect of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company&rsquo;s board of directors (the &ldquo;<B><I>Board</I></B>&rdquo;) currently
believes that there will not be sufficient time before June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination Period is extended in accordance with the
terms of the existing charter) to hold a special meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder approval of the Proposed Business
Combination. Accordingly, our Board believes that the Extension is necessary in order to be able to consummate the Proposed Business Combination.
Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Extension. The Company believes the Seller is
a compelling opportunity for the Company&rsquo;s initial business combination. The Company initially filed a proxy statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;<B>SEC</B>&rdquo;) on March 20, 2023 (as amended, the &ldquo;<B>Proxy Statement</B>&rdquo;)
in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. The Proxy Statement has not yet been cleared by the SEC. Accordingly, since the
Company will not be able to complete the Proposed Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company has determined to seek
stockholder approval to extend the time for closing the Proposed Business Combination beyond the last day of the Combination Period to
the Extended Date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Trust Agreement provides that if a business combination has not
been consummated, upon the date which is 15 months (or up to 18 months if the Combination Period is extended in accordance with the terms
of the existing charter) after the closing of the IPO, the trust account is to be liquidated and its proceeds are to be distributed to
the Company&rsquo;s public stockholders of record as of such date, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and
not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes. The purpose of the Trust Amendment is to amend the Trust Agreement to extend
the liquidation date of the trust account on a monthly basis up to six times from June 15, 2023 to December 15, 2023 to match the Company&rsquo;s
charter if the Extension Amendment is approved.</P>

special meeting, who will separately count &ldquo;FOR&rdquo; and &ldquo;AGAINST&rdquo; votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. Because
approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the stockholders holding
at least sixty-five percent (65%),of the public shares and founder shares outstanding on the record date, abstentions and broker non-votes
will have the same effect as votes against the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Delivering shares physically may take significantly longer. In order
to obtain a physical stock certificate, a stockholder&rsquo;s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC, and the Company&rsquo;s transfer agent
will need to act together to facilitate this request. There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and
the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering
broker $100 and the broker would determine whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. It is the Company&rsquo;s understanding
that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. The Company does
not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, and it may take longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate.
Such stockholders will have less time to make their investment decision than those stockholders that deliver their shares through the
DWAC system. Stockholders who request physical stock certificates and wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for tendering
their shares before exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Certificates that have not been tendered in accordance with these procedures
prior to the vote on the Extension Amendment Proposal will not be redeemed for cash held in the trust account. In the event that a public
stockholder tenders its shares and decides prior to the vote at the special meeting that it does not want to redeem its shares, the stockholder
may withdraw the tender. If you delivered your shares for redemption to our transfer agent and decide prior to the vote at the special
meeting not to redeem your public shares, you may request that our transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You
may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the address listed above. In the event that a public stockholder tenders shares
and the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved, these shares will not be redeemed and the physical certificates representing these
shares will be returned to the stockholder promptly following the determination that the Extension Amendment Proposal will not be approved.
The Company anticipates that a public stockholder who tenders shares for redemption in connection with the vote to approve the Extension
would receive payment of the redemption price for such shares soon after the completion of the Extension Amendment. The transfer agent
will hold the certificates of public stockholders that make the election until such shares are redeemed for cash or returned to such stockholders.</P>

capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses
or entities. The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on June&nbsp;14, 2021.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On March&nbsp;15, 2022, the Company closed its initial public offering
of 12,350,000&nbsp;units, including the exercise of the over-allotment&nbsp;option to the extent of 1,350,000&nbsp;units, with each unit
consisting of one share of its Class&nbsp;A common stock and one-half&nbsp;of one warrant, each whole warrant to purchase one share of
its Class&nbsp;A common stock at a purchase price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Company&rsquo;s final
prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March&nbsp;14, 2022 (File No.&nbsp;333-261114). The units from the IPO
were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $123,500,000.&#9;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the exercise of
the underwriters&rsquo; over-allotment&nbsp;option, the Company consummated the private sale of 5,405,000&nbsp;warrants at $1.00 per warrant
for an aggregate purchase price of $5,405,000. A total of $125,970,000, was deposited into the trust account and the remaining net proceeds
became available to be used as working capital to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations
and continuing general and administrative expenses. The IPO was conducted pursuant to a registration statement on Form&nbsp;S-1&nbsp;that
became effective on March&nbsp;10, 2022.</P>

to the Merger Agreement, dated as of February 16, 2023, as it may be amended, which provides for a business combination between the Company
and Honeycomb Battery Company, an Ohio corporation. While we have entered into a definitive agreement with the Seller in respect of the
Proposed Business Combination, the Board currently believes that there will not be sufficient time before June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination
Period is extended in accordance with the terms of the existing charter) to hold a special meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder
approval of the Proposed Business Combination. Accordingly, our Board believes that the Extension is necessary in order to be able to
consummate the Proposed Business Combination. Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the
Extension. The Company believes the Seller is a compelling opportunity for the Company&rsquo;s initial business combination. The Company
initially filed a proxy statement with the SEC on March 20, 2023 in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. The Proxy Statement
has not yet been cleared by the SEC. Accordingly, since the Company will not be able to complete the Proposed Business Combination within
the Combination Period, the Company has determined to seek stockholder approval to extend the time for closing the Proposed Business Combination
beyond the last day of the Combination Period to the Extended Date.&nbsp;</P>

need for a separate stockholder vote under the charter, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account
$1,235,000 ($0.10 per public share) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On March 13, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $1, 235,000
to extend the Combination Period from March 15, 2023 to June 15, 2023. Given current market conditions, the Sponsor would like to pay
extension fees that are substantially less than the $411,666.67 per month required for the permitted extensions under the existing charter.
The Company expects that there will be significant redemptions at the special meeting.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Extension Amendment will provide the Company with additional time
to complete its proposed business combination (the &ldquo;<B><I>Proposed Business Combination</I></B>&rdquo;) pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
dated as of February 16, 2023, as it may be amended, which provides for a business combination between the Company and Honeycomb Battery
Company, an Ohio corporation (the &ldquo;<B><I>Seller</I></B>&rdquo;). While we have entered into a definitive agreement with the Seller
in respect of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company&rsquo;s board of directors (the &ldquo;<B><I>Board</I></B>&rdquo;) currently
believes that there will not be sufficient time before June 15, 2023 (unless the Combination Period is extended in accordance with the
terms of the existing charter) to hold a special meeting at which to conduct a vote for stockholder approval of the Proposed Business
Combination. Accordingly, our Board believes that the Extension is necessary in order to be able to consummate the Proposed Business Combination.
Approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Extension. The Company believes the Seller is
a compelling opportunity for the Company&rsquo;s initial business combination. The Company initially filed a proxy statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;<B>SEC</B>&rdquo;) on March 20, 2023 (as amended, the &ldquo;<B>Proxy Statement</B>&rdquo;)
in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. The Proxy Statement has not yet been cleared by the SEC. Accordingly, since the
Company will not be able to complete the Proposed Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company has determined to seek
stockholder approval to extend the time for closing the Proposed Business Combination beyond the last day of the Combination Period to
the Extended Date. The Company and its officers and directors agreed that they would not seek to amend the Company&rsquo;s charter to
allow for a longer period of time to complete a business combination unless the Company provided holders of public shares with the right
to seek conversion of their public shares in connection therewith.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Through DTC&rsquo;s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian) System,
this electronic delivery process can be accomplished by the stockholder, whether or not it is a record holder or its shares are held in
&ldquo;street name,&rdquo; by contacting the transfer agent or its broker and requesting delivery of its shares through the DWAC system.
Delivering shares physically may take significantly longer. In order to obtain a physical stock certificate, a stockholder&rsquo;s broker
and/or clearing broker, DTC, and the Company&rsquo;s transfer agent will need to act together to facilitate this request. There is a nominal
cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC
system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $100 and the broker would determine whether or not to pass this
cost on to the redeeming holder. It is the Company&rsquo;s understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to
obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. The Company does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC,
and it may take longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate. Such stockholders will have less time to make their investment
decision than those stockholders that deliver their shares through the DWAC system. Stockholders who request physical stock certificates
and wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for tendering their shares before exercising their redemption rights and thus will
be unable to redeem their shares. Certificates that have not been tendered in accordance with these procedures prior to the vote on the
Extension Amendment will not be redeemed for cash held in the trust account on the redemption date. In the event that a public stockholder
tenders its shares and decides prior to the vote at the special meeting that it does not want to redeem its shares, the stockholder may
withdraw the tender. If you delivered your shares for redemption to our transfer agent and decide prior to the vote at the special meeting
not to redeem your public shares, you may request that our transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make
such request by contacting our transfer agent at the address listed above. In the event that a public stockholder tenders shares and the
Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved, these shares will not be redeemed and the physical certificates representing these shares
will be returned to the stockholder promptly following the determination that the Extension Amendment will not be approved. The Company
anticipates that a public stockholder who tenders shares for redemption in connection with the vote to approve the Extension would receive
payment of the redemption price for such shares soon after the completion of the Extension Amendment. The transfer agent will hold the
certificates of public stockholders that make the election until such shares are redeemed for cash or returned to such stockholders.</P>

price of the public shares on the NASDAQ on May 30, 2023, was $10.54. Accordingly, if the market price were to remain the same until the

share than if such stockholder sold the public shares in the open market. The Company cannot assure public stockholders that they will
