Filing Summary: Pyrophyte Acquisition Corp. is holding an Extraordinary General Meeting on April 25, 2025, to consider an Extension Proposal which aims to amend its Articles of Association to extend the deadline for completing a merger or business combination from April 29, 2025, to April 29, 2026. The meeting also includes an Adjournment Proposal to allow additional time for shareholder votes if necessary. The Extension Proposal is in response to current limitations in obtaining shareholder approval for the business combination with Sio Silica Corporation, which has undergone multiple amendments to its agreement to afford more time for completion. The extension aims to ensure adequate time for securing required permits and finalizing necessary filings with regulatory bodies, while the board believes that the proposed merger is in the best interests of shareholders. If approved, shareholders can redeem their shares for approximately $11.93 each, based on available funds in the Trust Account as of the proxy statement date. Failure to secure the Extension will lead to winding up operations and redeeming public shares shortly thereafter.
