Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed in its definitive proxy statement (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 15, 2023, Swiftmerge Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) will hold an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders on June 12, 2023 (the “Meeting”) to consider and vote upon the Extension Proposal, the Trust Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal (as each term is defined in the Definitive Proxy Statement) and, if necessary, the Adjournment Proposal (as defined in the Definitive Proxy Statement).

On June 6, 2023, the Company entered into voting and non-redemption agreements (each, a “Voting and Non-Redemption Agreement”) with one or more unaffiliated third party or parties (the “Shareholders”) in exchange for each such third party or third parties agreeing not to redeem Class A ordinary shares, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) of the Company sold in its initial public offering (the “Non-Redeemed Shares”) at the Meeting. In exchange for the foregoing commitments not to redeem such Non-Redeemed Shares, the Company has agreed to among other items: (i) file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC to permit the resale of the Shareholders’ Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) within 30 days following the closing of the Company’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”), and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 90 days after the closing of the Business Combination; (ii) the Class B Ordinary Shares owned by the Shareholders will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares upon the closing of the Business Combination; and (iii) the Shareholders shall not be required to enter into any lock-up agreement with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination.

 

2


The Voting and Non-Redemption Agreements are expected to increase the likelihood that the Extension Proposal is approved by the Company’s shareholders, and increase the amount of funds that remain in the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) following the Meeting, relative to the amount of funds that would be expected to be remaining in the Trust Account following the Meeting had the Voting and Non-Redemption Agreements not been entered into and the shares subject to such agreements had been redeemed.

The foregoing summary of the Voting and Non-Redemption Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Voting and Non-Redemption Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Information

Important Information About the Extension and Where to Find It

The Company filed the Definitive Proxy Statement for the Meeting with the SEC on May 15, 2023 to consider and vote upon the Extension and other matters, and, beginning on or about May 17, 2023, first mailed the Proxy Statement and other relevant documents to its stockholders as of the May 12, 2023 record date for the Meeting. The Company’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read the Definitive Proxy Statement and any amendments thereto, as well as all other relevant materials filed or that will be filed with the SEC, in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the Meeting to be held to approve, among other things, the Extension Proposal, because these documents will contain important information about the Company and the Extension Proposal. Stockholders may also obtain a copy of the Definitive Proxy Statement, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the Extension Proposal and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to our proxy solicitor Morrow Sodali LLC, (800) 662-5200, email: VCP@info.morrowsodali.com.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company and certain of its respective directors, executive officers and other members of management and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Extension. Information regarding the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Extension is set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the Definitive Proxy Statement that has been filed with the SEC. Investors and security holders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names of the Company’s directors and executive officers in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and other documents of the Company filed, or to be filed, from time to time with the SEC. Additional information regarding the participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests are included in the Definitive Proxy Statement. Shareholders, potential investors and other interested persons should read the Definitive Proxy Statement carefully before making any voting or investment decisions. You may obtain free copies of these documents from the sources indicated above.

Forward-Looking Statements

The information included herein and in any oral statements made in connection herewith include “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,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the issuance of the Class A Ordinary Shares to the non-redeeming Shareholders, additional voting and non-redemption agreements, the amount of funds that will be in the Trust Account on the date of the Meeting and the funds that will remain in the Trust Account following the Meeting and approval of the

Extension Proposal and the timing thereof. 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 the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the Company to successfully or timely implement the extension or that the approval of the shareholders of the Company is not obtained; the amount of redemption requests made by the Company’s public shareholders; and those factors described or referenced in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of the Company filed, or to be filed, from time to time with the SEC, including the Definitive Proxy Statement. 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 the Company presently knows or that the Company 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 the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date hereof. The Company anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaim any obligation to do so except as otherwise required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date hereof. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom, and otherwise in accordance with applicable law.
