Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 27, 2023, SK Growth Opportunities Corporation (“SK Growth”) filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Extension Proxy Statement”) for an extraordinary general meeting (the “Meeting”) of its shareholders originally scheduled to be held on December 22, 2023, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time to approve, among other things, an amendment to SK Growth’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”) to extend the date by which SK Growth has to complete an initial business combination from December 28, 2023 to September 30, 2024, or such earlier date as SK Growth’s board of directors may approve in accordance with the Articles. The board of directors of SK Growth has decided to postpone the Meeting to December 27, 2023, at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time to allow additional time for SK Growth to engage with its shareholders.

In connection with the postponement of the Meeting, the deadline for shareholders to exercise their right to redeem their Class A ordinary shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in SK Growth’s trust account, or to withdraw any previously delivered demand for redemption is extended, to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 22, 2023. If a shareholder has previously submitted a request to redeem its Class A ordinary shares in connection with the Meeting and would like to reverse such request, such shareholder may contact SK Growth’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at One State Street Plaza, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, Attn: Mark Zimkind (e-mail: mzimkind@continentalstock.com).

The postponed meeting will be held on December 27, 2023, at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10022 and conducted remotely by teleconference. Shareholders can attend the postponed meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/skgrowthopportunities/2023.
