1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Organization and General

GigCapital5, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on January 19, 2021. The Company was founded as a blank check company or special purpose acquisitions company (“SPAC”), formed by an affiliate of the serial SPAC issuer GigCapital Global, for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 19, 2021 (date of inception) through September 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (the “Offering”), as described in Note 3, and identifying a target Business Combination, as described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

On September 23, 2021, the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-254038), as amended, relating to the Offering of the Company was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and William Blair & Company, L.L.C. (collectively, the “Underwriters”) on September 23, 2021 to conduct the Offering of 20,000,000 units (the “Public Units”) in the amount of $200.0 million in gross proceeds, with a 45-day option provided to the Underwriters to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Public Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any, in the amount of up to $30.0 million in additional gross proceeds. Each Public Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock (a “Public Share”), $0.0001 par value, and one redeemable warrant (a “Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant is exercisable for one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per full share.

On September 28, 2021, the Company consummated the Offering of 23,000,000 Public Units, including the issuance of 3,000,000 Public Units as a result of the Underwriters exercise in full of their over-allotment option. The Public Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $230,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the closing of a private placement sale (the “Private Placement”) to the Company’s sponsor GigAcquisitions5, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Founder” or “Sponsor”), of 795,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”), at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit. The Private Placement generated aggregate gross proceeds of $7,950,000.

Following the closing of the Offering, net proceeds in the amount of $225,400,000 from the sale of the Public Units and proceeds in the amount of $6,900,000 from the sale of Private Placement Units, for a total of $232,300,000, were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), which is described further below.

Transaction costs amounted to $13,193,740, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $9,200,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $843,740 of offering costs, of which $110,000 remains in accounts payable as of September 30, 2022, partially offset by the reimbursement of $1,450,000 of offering expenses by the Underwriters. The Company’s remaining cash after payment of the offering costs will be held outside of the Trust Account for working capital purposes.

Recent Developments

Approval of Extension

The Company’s Offering prospectus and Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provided that the Company initially had until September 28, 2022 (the date which was 12 months after the consummation of the

Offering) to complete the Business Combination. On September 23, 2022, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) and the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that extends the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination transaction from September 28, 2022 up to March 28, 2023 in one-month extensions.

The Company previously entered into an Investment Management Trust Agreement (the “IMTA”), dated September 23, 2021, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee. At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the IMTA (the “IMTA Amendment”) to reflect the extension period from September 28, 2022 up to March 28, 2023 by depositing into the Trust Account $160,000 for each one-month extension.

The Company’s stockholders elected to redeem 18,985,950 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represented approximately 82.6% of the shares that were part of the Public Units sold in the Offering.

Extension Amendment Contributions

On September 26, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured, non-interest-bearing promissory note (the “Extension Note”) to the Sponsor for a principal amount of $160,000. The proceeds from the Extension Note were deposited into the Trust Account in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The Extension Note matures on the earlier of the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination or the date the Company winds up and may be prepaid without penalty.

Subsequent to September 30, 2022, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Extension Note. See Note 8. Subsequent Events.

The Trust Account

The funds in the Trust Account have been invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty-five (185) days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 which invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. Funds will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. The remaining proceeds from the Offering outside the Trust Account may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence expenses on acquisition targets and continuing general and administrative expenses.

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the payment of deferred underwriting commissions and the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (1) the completion of the Business Combination; (2) the redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed an initial Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Offering (or up to 18 months in total if the Company extends the period of time to consummate its initial Business Combination up to six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time, provided that the Sponsor (or its designees) must deposit into the Trust Account for each one-month extension funds equal to $160,000 in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note); or (3) the redemption of shares in connection with a stockholder vote seeking to amend any provisions of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation relating to the Company’s pre-initial Business Combination activity and related stockholders’ rights.

Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination with (or acquisition of) a Target Business. As used herein, “Target Business” must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (less taxes payable on interest earned) at the time the Company signs a definitive agreement in connection with the Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for a Business Combination, will either (i) seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable, or (ii) provide stockholders with the opportunity to have their shares redeemed by the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days

prior to commencement of the tender offer, including interest but less taxes payable. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination or will allow stockholders to redeem their shares to the Company in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek stockholder approval unless a vote is required by New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval, it will complete its Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 upon consummation of a Business Combination. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.

If the Company holds a stockholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with a Business Combination, a public stockholder will have the right to redeem its shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such shares of common stock have been recorded at their redemption amount and classified as temporary equity.

The amount held in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $40,487,648 and $232,304,005, respectively, which primarily represents cash and marketable securities of $225,400,000 from the sale of 23,000,000 Public Units at $10.00 per Public Unit, net of underwriting fees of $4,600,000, and $6,900,000 from the sale of 795,000 Private Placement Units at $10.00 per Private Placement Unit to the Founder. The amount held in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2022 also includes $909,157 of interest income earned on these holdings, less $397,477 of income taxes paid for the interest earned and $345,720 of franchise taxes paid on these holdings. On September 23, 2022, stockholders elected to redeem 18,985,950 shares of the Company’s common stock. Following such redemptions, $192,138,312 was withdrawn from the Trust Account on September 27, 2022. The Company’s Trust Account also received one extension payment in the amount of $160,000 on September 27, 2022. The amount held in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2021 also includes $4,005 of interest income earned and no taxes were paid from the Trust Account.

Additionally, there was $382,639 and $1,973 of interest accrued, but not yet credited to the Trust Account, which was recorded in the condensed balance sheets in interest receivable on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Notwithstanding the foregoing redemption rights, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of its initial Business Combination in conjunction with a stockholder vote pursuant to a proxy solicitation (meaning the Company would not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules), the amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), will be restricted from redeeming its shares of common stock with respect to an aggregate of more than 15% of the shares of common stock sold in this Offering without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company's stockholders approved the IMTA Amendment that extends the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination transaction from September 28, 2022 (the date which is 12 months from the closing date of the Company's Offering) on a monthly basis up to March 28, 2023 (the date which is 18 months from the closing date of the Company's Offering) by depositing into the Trust Account for each one-month extension $160,000. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within this period of time, it shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account, including interest, but less taxes payable (less up to $100,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses) and (iii) as promptly as possible following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Company’s net assets to its creditors and remaining stockholders, as part of its plan of dissolution and liquidation. The Founder, Brad Weightman, the Company’s Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, and Interest Solutions, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company and an affiliate of ICR, LLC, an investor relations firm providing services to the Company (“ICR”) (the “Insiders” as it relates to Mr. Weightman and ICR) entered into letter agreements with the Company, pursuant to

which they waived their rights to participate in any redemption with respect to their founder shares, insider shares and private shares, and the Founder waived its redemption right with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Offering. However, if the Founder, the Underwriters or the Insiders or any of the Company’s officers, directors or affiliates acquire units or shares of common stock, previously included in the Public Units, in or after the Offering, they will be entitled to a pro rata share of the Trust Account upon the Company’s liquidation (and in case of the Underwriters and Insiders, upon the Company’s redemption) in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the required time period.

In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the Offering price per Public Unit in the Offering.

Going Concern Consideration

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $485,657 in cash and a working capital deficit of $1,800,567. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account is generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem its shares of common stock. Further, the Company has no present revenue, its business plan is dependent on the completion of a Business Combination and it expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its Business Combination plans.

In connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations, management has determined that the liquidity condition and the potential mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution, should the Company be unable to complete a Business Combination by the liquidation date up to March 28, 2023, raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after March 28, 2023.

If the proceeds not held in the Trust Account become insufficient to allow the Company to operate up to March 28, 2023 if all one-month extensions are exercised prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time, the Company intends to manage its cash flow through the timing and payment of expenses or, if necessary, raising additional funds from the Sponsor to ensure the proceeds not held in the Trust Account will be sufficient to allow it to operate for the remaining available extension periods. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Over this time period, the Company intends to use these funds primarily for consummating the Business Combination.
