In connection with the shareholder vote at the meeting, Metals’ shareholders holding 23,513,685 Class A ordinary shares validly elected to redeem their shares, removing 88.68% of the SPAC’s trust.

The SPAC has brought in a series of funding for the deal’s PIPE within the past few months, totaling $175 million.
