Sizzle Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: SZZL) (“Sizzle” or the “Company”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, announced today that its stockholders have approved an extension of the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination from February 8, 2023 to August 8, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (“the “Extension”). The Extension was approved at the special meeting of stockholders held on February 1, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”) and it provides Sizzle with additional time to complete its previously announced proposed business combination (the “Proposed Business Combination”) with European Lithium Ltd (ASX: EUR) (“European Lithium”), a mineral exploration company, to form Critical Metals Corp. (“Critical Metals”).

The Company will deposit an aggregate amount of $200,000 (the “Extension Payment”) into the Company’s trust account for its public stockholders (the “Trust Account”) by February 9, 2023, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate the Proposed Business Combination to March 8, 2023, and will deposit the same amount each additional month that is needed for the Company to consummate the Proposed Business Combination until August 8, 2023 (unless the Company’s Board of Directors decides to stop extending the time period earlier than such date).

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Sizzle’s, Critical Metals’, and European Lithium’s and/or EUR BVI’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.
