As previously reported in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 20, 2023, Spire Global, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a petition on March 17, 2023 in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court of Chancery”) pursuant to Section 205 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Section 205 Petition”), seeking validation of the Company’s current restated certificate of incorporation among other matters. The case is captioned In Re Spire Global, Inc., C.A. No. 2023-0331-LWW (Del. Ch.).

On April 5, 2023, the Court of Chancery held a hearing on the Section 205 Petition and issued a bench ruling granting the petition and awarding the requested relief. The Court of Chancery then entered an order memorializing its bench ruling, validating and declaring effective retroactively the Company’s current restated certificate of incorporation, as of its effective date, as well as all shares of capital stock of the Company issued in reliance on the effectiveness of the Company’s current restated certificate of incorporation, as of the date and time of the original issuance of such shares.
