Other Events.

Canon Letter of Intent

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K that GigCapital5, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GigCapital5”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 8, 2022, GigCapital5 entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the “BCA”) with QTI Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of GigCapital5 (“Merger Sub”) and QT Imaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“QT Imaging”), pursuant to the terms of which Merger Sub will merge with and into QT Imaging (the “Merger”), with QT Imaging as the surviving company in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and after giving effect to the Merger, the Surviving Corporation will be a wholly owned subsidiary of GigCapital5, which will be renamed as QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (“QTI Holdings”).

As previously disclosed, on May 31, 2023, QT Imaging entered into a confidential Sales Agent Agreement (the “NXC Agreement”) with NXC Imaging (“NXC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc. (“CMSU), pursuant to which QT Imaging appointed NXC as the non-exclusive agent for the sale of QT Imaging products and services in non-exclusive territories: the U.S., U.S. territories, and U.S. Department of Defense installations. Additionally, NXC was appointed as the exclusive servicer of QT Imaging products sold by NXC under the terms of the NXC Agreement.

QT Imaging has also entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “Canon Letter of Intent”), with CMSU and Canon Medical Systems, Inc. (“CMSC”) pursuant to which four binding purchase orders delivered in January 2024 to QT Imaging for the acquisition by CMSC of two QT scanners, with 50% of the payment for the QT scanners having taken place on January 31, 2024 and the remaining payment and the shipment of the two QT scanners to occur by April 15, 2024.

CMSC will conduct feasibility studies on the QT scanners that it is acquiring, including product quality validation, development and manufacturing studies, clinical evaluation, regulatory investigation and marketing validation (the “Feasibility Study”). The Feasibility Study will commence upon delivery of the QT scanners and the parties will make their best efforts to complete the Feasibility Study by July 31, 2024, but in any case, no later than the end of the year 2024.

Upon successful conclusion of the Feasibility Study, QT Imaging and CMSC intend to engage in a good faith discussion to develop a binding OEM agreement with CMSC, with such agreement targeted for execution in the second half of 2024. Under the contemplated OEM agreement, CMSC will commercialize and service the QT scanner worldwide, with Canon-branded systems to be sold exclusively through Canon global channels, including by NXC as provided for in the NXC Agreement, and a license fee to be mutually agreed upon to be paid to QT Imaging for each system sold by Canon or its partners. The parties also intend that CMSU will leverage the contemplated OEM agreement to source QT scanners for sale in the U.S. on terms to be mutually agreed upon.

CMSC will also use QT scanners that it is acquiring to perform clinical trials towards the possibility of it pursuing the regulatory approval process in Japan.

CMSC and QT Imaging have also discussed other potential terms between them.

Supplement to the BCA Proxy Statement

On February 7, 2024, GigCapital5 filed a joint definitive proxy statement/prospectus (the “BCA Proxy Statement”) for the solicitation of proxies in connection with the upcoming annual meeting (the “February 2024 Annual Meeting”) to consider and vote on its proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) and other matters as described in the BCA Proxy Statement relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to the stockholders of QT Imaging, Inc. in connection with the Business Combination.

GigCapital5 has decided to supplement the BCA Proxy Statement (the “Proxy Supplement”) to provide updated information about the Canon Letter of Intent and the acquisition by CMSC of QT scanners from QT Imaging. There is no change to the date, location, the record date, redemption deadline or any of the other proposals to be acted upon at the February 2024 Annual Meeting.


Stockholders who have previously submitted their proxies or otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote need not take any action. Stockholders as of the January 24, 2024 record date can vote, even if they have subsequently sold their shares. Stockholders who wish to withdraw their previously submitted redemption requests may do so prior to the February 2024 Annual Meeting by requesting that the transfer agent return such shares prior to the February 2024 Annual Meeting.

A copy of the Proxy Supplement is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated to herein by reference.
