At the Meeting, AIB’s shareholders voted on the proposals set forth below, each of which is described in greater detail in the definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 24, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement”). At the Meeting, each of the proposals in the Proxy Statement voted upon at the Meeting was approved by the shareholders.

Forward-Looking Statements 

 

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “continue,” “should,” “would,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “future,” “outlook” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial metrics and projections of market opportunity; references with respect to the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination and the projected future financial performance of AIB and PSI’s operating companies following the Business Combination; changes in the market for PSI’s products and services and expansion plans and opportunities; PSI’s ability to successfully execute its expansion plans and business initiatives; ability for PSI to raise funds to support its business; the sources and uses of cash of the Business Combination; the anticipated capitalization and enterprise value of the combined company following the consummation of the Business Combination; and expectations related to the terms and timing of the Business Combination. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and on the current expectations of PSI’s and AIB’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of PSI and AIB. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transactions described herein; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination; the ability to obtain or maintain the listing of the Pubco’s securities on The Nasdaq Stock Market, following the Business Combination, including having the requisite number of shareholders; costs related to the Business Combination; changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; risks relating to the uncertainty of certain projected financial information with respect to PSI; PSI’s ability to successfully and timely develop and implement its growth strategy; PSI’s ability to adequately manage any logistics and supply chain risks; fluctuations in the price of cargo space and the uncertainties in supply and demand for cargo space; risks relating to PSI’s operations and business, including information technology and cybersecurity risks, failure to adequately forecast supply and demand, loss of key customers and deterioration in relationships between PSI and its employees; PSI’s ability to successfully collaborate with business partners; demand for PSI’s current and future services; risks related to increased competition; risks relating to potential disruption in the transportation and shipping infrastructure, including trade policies and export controls; risks that PSI is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property; risks of regulatory lawsuits relating to PSI’s services; risks that the post-combination company experiences difficulties managing its growth and expanding operations; the uncertain effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and certain geopolitical developments, including the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the Business Combination, including the risk that any required shareholder or regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Business Combination; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against PSI, AIB, the Pubco or others following announcement of the Business Combination and transactions contemplated thereby; the ability of PSI to execute its business model, including market acceptance of its existing and planned services; technological improvements by PSI’s peers and competitors; and those risk factors discussed in documents of Pubco and AIB filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither AIB nor PSI presently know or that AIB and PSI currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect AIB’s, the Pubco’s and PSI’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. AIB, the Pubco and PSI anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause AIB’s, the Pubco’s and PSI’s assessments to change. However, while AIB, the Pubco and PSI may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, AIB, the Pubco and PSI specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. Readers are referred to the most recent reports filed with the SEC by AIB. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
