QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

This proxy statement of Spree Acquisition Corp. 1 Limited (the “Company,” “Spree,” “we” or “us”) and the enclosed proxy card are being sent to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors (the “Board”) for use at an extraordinary general meeting in lieu of the 2023 annual general meeting of the Company (the “Meeting”), or at any adjournments or postponements thereof. This proxy statement summarizes the information that you need to make an informed decision on the proposals to be considered at the Meeting.

We are a blank check company formed on August 6, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company. We were formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (our “initial business combination”). Our sponsor is Spree Operandi, LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (we refer herein to the sponsor, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Spree Operandi U.S. LP, a Delaware limited partnership, collectively as our “Sponsor”). On December 20, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering (“IPO”). Pursuant to our IPO, we offered and sold an aggregate of 20,000,000 units, consisting of 17,500,000 units that served as the base offering amount, and an additional 2,500,000 units for which the underwriters exercised an over-allotment option (collectively, the “Public Units”). Each Public Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 (“Class A ordinary share”) (a “Public Share”) and one-half of a warrant (a “Public Warrant”). Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50. The Public Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $200,000,000.

Substantially concurrent with the closing of our IPO, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 945,715 units (“Private Units”) to our Sponsor. Each Private Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (each, a “Private Share”) and one-half of a warrant to purchase a Class A ordinary share. The purchase price per Private Unit was $10.00, generating aggregate gross proceeds to us of $9,457,150. The warrants contained in the Private Units (the “Private Warrants”) are identical to the Public Warrants, except that, for so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its affiliates: (1) they are not redeemable by us; (2) they may not (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of those warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the Sponsor until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination; and (3) they (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) are entitled to registration rights. Following the closings, a total of $204,000,000 from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”). Prior to our IPO, our Sponsor purchased from us an aggregate of 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B ordinary shares”) (the “Founder Shares”) for total consideration of $25,000. Following certain forfeitures of Founder Shares in connection with the IPO, the Sponsor holds 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares. As such, disregarding the additional Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Warrants (and the shares underlying the Public Warrants), our Sponsor owns 22.9% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

On October 29, 2022, we entered into a business combination agreement with WHC Worldwide, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company doing business as zTrip® (“WHC”), and on January 25, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to that agreement with WHC (as amended, the “WHC Business Combination Agreement”). The prospective transactions pursuant to the WHC Business Combination Agreement include, among other things: the transfer by way of continuation and deregistration of Spree from the Cayman Islands and the continuation and domestication of Spree as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware under the name WHC Worldwide, Inc. (“New WHC”); and the organization of the combined company resulting from the business combination in an “Up-C” tax structure, such that WHC and the subsidiaries of WHC will hold and operate substantially all of the assets and business of New WHC, and New WHC will be a publicly listed holding company that will hold equity interests in WHC. The transactions set forth in the WHC Business Combination Agreement (collectively, the “WHC Business Combination”) will constitute a “Business Combination” as contemplated by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”). The WHC Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby have been unanimously approved by the board of directors of Spree and also approved by the sole managing member, and the requisite holders of the issued and outstanding units, of WHC.

Like most blank check companies’ governing documents, our Articles provide for the return of the IPO proceeds held in trust to the holders of Public Shares if there is no qualifying business combination consummated on or before a certain date. In our case, that date is currently June 20, 2023 (the “Current Termination Date”) (i.e., upon the expiration of the 15-month period following the consummation of the IPO, plus a three-month extension period to which we became entitled automatically under the Articles when we entered into a definitive agreement for the WHC Business Combination, which total period we refer to as the “business combination period”). If both the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal (each, as described below) are approved, the business combination period will be extended until September 20, 2023. Our Board believes that in light of the pending WHC Business Combination transaction, which we are pursuing diligently, it is in the best interests of Spree and its shareholders to extend the business combination period until that date, to enable us to consummate the transaction. Therefore, the Board is submitting the proposals described in this proxy statement for the shareholders to vote upon.

Why does the Company need to hold an annual meeting?

The Meeting is also being held, in part, to satisfy the annual meeting requirement of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). NYSE Rule 302.00 requires that we hold an annual meeting of shareholders for the election of directors during each fiscal year (as a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), we were exempt from that requirement during 2022, which was our initial full year following our formation).

In addition to sending our shareholders this proxy statement, we are also sending our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”), which contains our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Our 2022 Annual Report was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2023 and is available online at www.sec.gov.

In addition to considering and voting on the proposals described below, members of the Company’s management will be available at the Meeting to discuss the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and to answer questions regarding the Company’s current affairs.

What is being voted on?

You are being asked to vote on the following proposals:

What is the purpose of the Articles Extension and Trust Extension?

The purpose of the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension is to is to provide us with additional time to complete our prospective WHC Business Combination. Our IPO prospectus and Articles provide that we initially had 15 months from the closing date of our IPO (i.e., until March 20, 2023) to consummate our initial business combination, which period was to be extended: (a) an additional three months to a total of 18 months if we were to file (i) a Form 8-K that included a definitive merger or acquisition agreement or (ii) a proxy statement, registration statement or similar filing for an initial business combination, but, in each such case, without completing the initial business combination within such 15-month period; (b) up to two instances of an additional three months per instance for a total of up to 18 months or 21 months, respectively, by depositing into the trust account for each three month extension an amount equal to $0.10 per Public Unit or (c) for an additional period as a result of a shareholder vote to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Because we filed a Form 8-K to report our entry into the WHC Business Combination Agreement on October 31, 2022, we qualified for an initial three-month extension, until June 20, 2023.

We have already filed, with the SEC, a registration statement on Form S-4, and Amendment No. 1 thereto, containing a proxy statement/prospectus for a shareholders meeting to approve the WHC Business Combination. We still have various steps remaining to complete the WHC Business Combination, however, including: completing the review process of the SEC with respect to the Form S-4 and amendments thereto; finalizing a PIPE financing for the combined company; establishing a meeting date and record date for a shareholders meeting to approve the WHC Business Combination; distributing proxy materials to our shareholders; and holding the meeting to approve the WHC Business Combination. We may not be able to complete the WHC Business Combination on or before the Current Termination Date. If that were to occur and our shareholders will have not approved the Articles Extension or the Trust Extension at the Meeting, Spree would be forced to liquidate. Therefore, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to extend the date by which we have to consummate an initial business combination to the Articles Extension Date in order for our shareholders to have the opportunity to participate in an investment in the combined company. We intend to hold the above-referenced shareholders meeting prior to the expiration of the Articles Extension period in order to obtain shareholder approval for the WHC Business Combination. In addition, the Board believes that it is advantageous for the Board to be able to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to liquidate and dissolve the Company at an earlier date. Approval of the Articles Extension Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Articles Extension. In addition, the Board believes that it is advantageous for the Board to be able to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to liquidate and dissolve the Company at an earlier date.

Approval of the Articles Extension Proposal is a condition to the implementation of the Articles Extension.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal?

Our Board believes that our shareholders will benefit from our consummating the WHC Business Combination and is proposing the Articles Extension and Trust Extension to extend the date by which we may complete an initial business combination. Your vote in favor of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal is required for us to implement the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension, respectively.

Our Articles provide that if our shareholders approve an amendment to the Articles that would affect the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination before June 20, 2023 (reflecting our initial three-month extension period), we will provide holders of our Public Shares (“public shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem, subject to the redemption limitation as described in our Articles, all or a portion of their Public Shares upon such approval at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account deposits (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. This Articles provision was included to protect the Company’s shareholders from having to sustain their investments for an unreasonably long period if the Company failed to find a suitable business combination during the business combination period. If you do not elect to redeem your Public Shares, you will retain the right to vote on an initial business combination in the future and the right to redeem your Public Shares in connection with an initial business combination.

Our Board recommends that you vote in favor of the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal but expresses no opinion as to whether you should redeem your Public Shares. Public shareholders may elect to redeem their Public Shares regardless of whether or how they vote on the proposals at the Meeting; however, redemption payments for redemption elections in connection with this Meeting will only be made if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal receive the requisite shareholder approvals and we determine to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension.

Why is the Company proposing the Conversion Amendment Proposal? 

The purpose of the Conversion Amendment Proposal is to allow the Sponsor to effectively convert Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares at any point in time prior to the initial business combination. Article 17.2 of the Articles already allows a holder of Class B ordinary shares to convert such shares into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of an initial business combination at the election of the holder. However, Article 49.10 of the Articles still prohibits us from issuing additional shares following our initial public offering and prior to our initial business combination if such shares will either (i) vote together with our Public Shares as a single class on a proposal to approve our initial business combination, or (ii) be entitled to funds from the Trust Account. The issuance of Class A ordinary shares upon the conversion of the Sponsor Shares would violate that prohibition and thereby effectively prevent such a conversion even though otherwise permitted by the Articles. Consequently, we are proposing in the Conversion Amendment Proposal that this prohibition will not apply to the issuance of Class A ordinary shares upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares, provided that the holder(s) of the converted shares waive their right to proceeds from the Trust Account. By facilitating our Sponsor’s ability to convert its Founder Shares into Class A ordinary shares even prior to our initial business combination, the adoption of the Conversion Amendment Proposal will give us further flexibility to retain shareholders holding Public Shares and meet continued listing requirements of the NYSE in the event that the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved.

Why should I vote for the Conversion Amendment Proposal? 

NYSE may delist our securities from trading on its exchange following shareholder redemptions in connection with approval of the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions. By facilitating the conversion by the holder of our Class B ordinary shares (the Sponsor) of such shares to Class A ordinary shares, we expect to have greater flexibility to maintain compliance with NYSE’s continued listing requirements, as we will have a larger global market capitalization based on a greater number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding, which is the class listed on the NYSE.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Director Election Proposal?

All of the directors presented for re-appointment have served on our Board since our IPO. The Company believes that the stability and continuity of our Board is important as we continue to work toward an initial business combination.

Under the Articles, only holder(s) of Founder Shares have the right to vote in the appointment of directors prior to consummation of our initial business combination. Therefore, only the Sponsor, as the sole holder of the Founder Shares, has the right to vote upon the Director Election Proposal at the Meeting. Holders of Public Shares will not have the right to vote on the Director Election Proposal.

Why should I vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal?

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by our shareholders, our Board may not be able to adjourn the Meeting to a later date in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the other proposals.

How do the Company insiders intend to vote their shares?

All of the Company’s directors and their respective affiliates are expected to vote all shares over which they have voting control in favor of all proposals being presented at the Meeting.

Our Sponsor, directors and officers have entered into a letter agreement with us pursuant to which they have agreed to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed initial business combination and to waive their redemption rights with respect to their shares in connection with (i) the completion of our initial business combination or (ii) a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our Articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 15 (as currently extended to 18) months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity. None of our Sponsor, directors or officers are entitled to redeem the Founder Shares held by them.

On the record date, our Sponsor beneficially owned and was entitled to vote 5,945,715, or approximately 22.9%, of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

Subject to applicable securities laws, the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers, directors or any of their respective affiliates may purchase Public Shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of an initial business combination, although they are under no obligation to do so. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of our shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers, directors purchase Public Shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares.

To the extent any such purchases by the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers, directors or any of their respective affiliates are made in situations in which the tender offer rules restrictions on purchases apply, we will disclose in a Current Report on Form 8-K prior to the Meeting the following: (i) the number of Public Shares purchased outside of the redemption offer, along with the purchase price(s) for such Public Shares; (ii) the purpose of any such purchases; (iii) the impact, if any, of the purchases on the likelihood that the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal will be approved; (iv) the identities of the securityholders who sold to the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers, directors or any of their respective affiliates (if not purchased on the open market) or the nature of the securityholders (e.g., five percent security holders) who sold such Public Shares; and (v) the number of Public Shares for which we have received redemption requests pursuant to its redemption offer.

The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of approving the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal, or otherwise limit the number of Public Shares electing to redeem.

If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Articles Extension and Trust Extension to be effectuated in circumstances where such effectuation could not otherwise occur. In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our securities and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

We hereby represent that any of our securities purchased by the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers, directors or any of their respective affiliates in situations in which the tender offer rules restrictions on purchases would apply would not be voted in favor of approving the Articles Amendment Proposal, the Trust Amendment Proposal, or the Conversion Amendment Proposal.

Does the Board recommend voting for the approval of the proposals?

Yes. After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the proposals, the Board has determined that the proposals are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the proposals.

What vote is required to adopt the proposals?

Approval of each of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Conversion Amendment Proposal will require a special resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law, being a resolution passed by a majority of at least two-thirds of Spree’s shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution.

Under the Trust Agreement, approval of the Trust Extension Proposal will require the affirmative vote of holders of 65% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon.

The Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution passed by a simple majority of the holders of the Class B ordinary shares in the capital of the Company as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting and includes a unanimous written resolution.

The Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law, being a resolution passed by a simple majority of the shareholders of Spree as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution.

When would the Board abandon the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension?

Our Board will abandon the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension if our shareholders do not approve the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal or, if approved, our Board determines not to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension. If we abandon the Articles Extension, public shareholders will not have their Public Shares redeemed in connection with the Meeting.

What happens if I sell my ordinary shares or units of the Company before the Meeting?

The [      ], 2023 record date is earlier than the date of the Meeting. If you transfer your Public Shares after the record date but before the Meeting, unless the transferee obtains from you a proxy to vote those shares, you will retain your right to vote at the Meeting. If you transfer your Public Shares prior to the record date, you will have no right to vote those shares at the Meeting.

Will the Company seek any further extensions to liquidate the Trust Account?

Other than the Articles Extension Proposal, until the expiration of the business combination period, as extended, as described in this proxy statement, the Company does not currently anticipate seeking any further extension to consummate an initial business combination.

What happens if the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are not approved?

If the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are not approved, and we do not consummate the WHC Business Combination (or any other initial business combination) by June 20, 2023, we will be required to liquidate and dissolve our Trust Account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to the public shareholders.

The Company’s Sponsor has waived its rights to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to its Founder Shares. There will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to the Public Warrants or Private Warrants, which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.

Additionally, redemption payments for redemption elections in connection with this Meeting will only be made if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal receive the requisite shareholder approvals and we determine to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension.

What happens if the Conversion Amendment Proposal is not approved?

If the Conversion Amendment Proposal is not approved, we will not amend Article 49.10 of our Articles to allow the issuance of Class A ordinary shares upon conversion of Class B ordinary shares prior to our initial business combination subject to the condition that the holders of the converted shares waive their entitlement to funds from the Trust Account. Instead, the Class B ordinary shares would only become convertible, in effect, upon consummation of a business combination. This may adversely impact the willingness of our public shareholders to continue to hold, and not redeem, their Public Shares, and may therefore adversely affect our ability to successfully complete our initial business combination. However, this will not, in and of itself, cause the Company to cease to pursue an initial business combination prior to June 20, 2023, the current deadline for doing so under the Articles, or prior to September 20, 2023, if the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved. In the event the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved, a determination is made to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension, and shareholder redemptions are processed in connection with such approvals, we may not have enough Class A ordinary shares outstanding to remain in compliance with NYSE continued listing standards, and NYSE may delist our securities. If NYSE delists our securities, we may have greater difficulty in completing the WHC Business Combination (or any other business combination).

If the Articles Extension Proposal, Trust Extension Proposal and Conversion Amendment Proposal are approved, what happens next? 

Subject to the approval of (1) the Articles Extension Proposal by a special resolution being a resolution passed by a majority of at least two-thirds of Spree’s shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and (2) the Trust Extension Proposal by the affirmative vote of holders of 65% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon, if we determine that we will need additional time to consummate the WHC Business Combination, we expect to file an amendment to the Articles with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in the form of Annex A hereto, and the Trust Extension in the form of Annex B hereto will become effective. The Company will remain a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its Public Units, Public Shares and Public Warrants will remain publicly traded. Unless and until the Board determines to wind up the operations of the Company, the Company will continue to work to consummate the WHC Business Combination prior to the Articles Extension Date.

In addition, subject to the approval of the Conversion Amendment Proposal by a special resolution being a resolution passed by a majority of at least two-thirds of Spree’s shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, we expect to file an amendment to the Articles with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands in the form of Annex C hereto. We expect that the Sponsor will then convert its Founder Shares into Class A ordinary shares. Upon the conversion of such Class B ordinary shares to Class A ordinary shares, such Class A ordinary shares shall still not be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account through redemptions or otherwise. Additionally, the as-converted Class A ordinary shares will remain subject to all of the restrictions applicable to the pre-conversion Class B ordinary shares, including the prohibition on transferring, assigning or selling such shares (subject to limited exceptions) until the earliest to occur of:

The Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal must both be approved for the Articles Extension to be implemented.

Would I still be able to exercise my redemption rights if I vote for the Articles Extension Proposal, Trust Extension Proposal, and/or the Conversion Amendment Proposal? 

Yes, assuming you are a shareholder as of the record date and continue to hold your shares at the time of your redemption election (and subsequent redemption payment). However, redemption payments for redemption elections in connection with this Meeting will only be made if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal receive the requisite shareholder approvals and we determine to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension. If you do not redeem your Public Shares in connection with the Meeting, and you disagree with an initial business combination (such as the WHC Business Combination) when it is proposed for a shareholder approval, you will retain your right to redeem your Public Shares upon consummation of an initial business combination, subject to any limitations set forth in the Articles.

How do I vote?

If you are a holder of record of Company ordinary shares, you may vote in person or virtually at the Meeting or by submitting a proxy for the Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting in person or virtually, the Company urges you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may submit your proxy by (i) completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying pre-addressed postage paid envelope or (ii) voting online at https://www.cstproxy.com/__________. You may still attend the Meeting and vote virtually or in person if you have already voted by proxy.

If your Company ordinary shares are held in “street name” by a broker or other agent, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Meeting. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person or virtually at the Meeting unless you first submit a legal proxy to Continental, as described above in “How do I attend the Meeting virtually?”

How do I change my vote?

If you are a holder of record of Company ordinary shares, you can revoke your proxy at any time before the Meeting by (i) delivering a later-dated, signed proxy card prior to the date of the Meeting, (ii) granting a subsequent proxy online or (iii) voting in person or virtually at the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting alone will not change your vote.

If your Company ordinary shares are held in “street name” by a broker or other agent and you wish to revoke your proxy, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or agent.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Meeting, who will separately count “FOR”, “AGAINST” and “WITHHOLD” votes, abstentions and broker non-votes for each proposal. Approval of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Conversion Amendment Proposal require a special resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law being a resolution passed by a majority of at least two-thirds of Spree’s shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous resolution. Approval of the Trust Extension Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 65% of the outstanding Company ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon. Lastly, approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution passed by a simple majority of the holders of the Class B ordinary shares in the capital of the Company as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution, and the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law, being a resolution passed by a simple majority of shareholders of Spree as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution.

If you do not vote, your action will have the effect of a vote against the Trust Extension Proposal and, if a valid quorum is otherwise established, no effect on the Articles Extension Proposal, Conversion Amendment Proposal, Director Election Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal. Likewise, abstentions, broker non-votes and withheld votes (as applicable) will have the effect of a vote against the Trust Extension Proposal and no effect on the Articles Extension Proposal, Conversion Amendment Proposal, Director Election Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.

If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker automatically vote them for me?

Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker, bank or other nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but cannot vote the shares with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under the applicable rules, “non-routine” matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of shareholders, such as mergers, reverse stock splits, shareholder proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), and executive compensation, including advisory shareholder votes on executive compensation and on the frequency of shareholder votes on executive compensation. All of the proposals to be presented at the Meeting are considered to be “non-routine,” and brokers, banks or other nominees will not have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposals. Thus, your broker can vote your shares with respect to such “non-discretionary items” only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares, and your broker can tell you how to provide these instructions.

What is a quorum requirement?

A quorum of shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The holders of a majority of the shares in the capital of the Company being individuals present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorized representative or proxy shall be a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote virtually at the Meeting. Abstentions will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum within half an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting, the Meeting will stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as our Board may determine. If at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting to commence, the shareholders present shall be a quorum.

Who can vote at the Meeting?

Only holders of record of the Company’s ordinary shares at the close of business on [      ], 2023 are entitled to have their vote counted at the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. On that record date, 20,945,715 Class A ordinary shares and 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares were outstanding and entitled to vote.

See above in “How do I vote?” for information on how to vote.

What interests do the Company’s directors and executive officers have in the approval of the proposals?

The Company’s directors and executive officers have interests in the proposals that may be different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder. See “The Meeting — Interests of Our Sponsor, Directors and Officers.”

What happens to the Company’s warrants if the Articles Extension Proposal or Trust Extension Proposal is not approved? 

If the Articles Extension Proposal or Trust Extension Proposal is not approved and we do not consummate a business combination by June 20, 2023, we will be required to liquidate and dissolve our Trust Account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to the public shareholders. In that case, the Public Warrants as well as the Private Warrants will be worthless.

What happens to the Company’s warrants if both the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved?

If both the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved, the Company will be able to continue its efforts to consummate the WHC Business Combination prior to the Articles Extension Date and will retain the blank check company restrictions previously applicable to it, and the Public Warrants and Private Warrants will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

How do I redeem my Public Shares?

If the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension are implemented, each public shareholder may redeem all or a portion of his or her Public Shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account deposits (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. You will also be able to redeem your Public Shares in connection with any shareholder vote to approve a business combination, or if the Company has not consummated an initial business combination by the expiration of the Articles Extension.

To demand redemption, you must ensure your bank or broker complies with the requirements identified herein, including submitting a written request that your shares be redeemed for cash to the transfer agent and delivering your shares to the transfer agent prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on _____, 2023. You will only be entitled to receive cash in connection with a redemption of these shares if you continue to hold them until the effective date of the Articles Extension, Trust Extension, and redemption election.

Pursuant to our Articles, a public shareholder may request that the Company redeem all or a portion of such public shareholder’s Public Shares for cash if the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved. You will be entitled to receive cash for any Public Shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i) (a) hold Public Shares or (b) hold Public Shares as part of Public Units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares; and

(ii) prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on [       ], 2023, (a) submit a written request to Continental, the Company’s transfer agent (the “transfer agent”), at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street, 30^th Floor, New York, New York 10004, Attn: SPAC Redemption Team), that the Company redeem your Public Shares for cash and (b) deliver your Public Shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent directly and instruct it to do so. Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares even if they vote for the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal.

Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and public warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its, his or her own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent directly and instruct it to do so.

Through DTC’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian) System, this electronic delivery process can be accomplished by the shareholder, whether or not it is a record holder or its shares are held in “street name,” by contacting the transfer agent or its broker and requesting delivery of its shares through the DWAC system. Delivering shares physically may take significantly longer. In order to obtain a physical share certificate, a shareholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC, and the Company’s transfer agent will need to act together to facilitate this request. There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $100 and the broker would determine whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. It is the Company’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical share certificates from the transfer agent. The Company does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, and it may take longer than two weeks to obtain a physical share certificate. Such shareholders will have less time to make their investment decision than those shareholders that deliver their shares through the DWAC system. Shareholders who request physical share certificates and wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for tendering their shares before exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.

Share certificates that have not been tendered or delivered in accordance with these procedures prior to the vote on the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal will not be redeemed for cash held in the Trust Account.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and, thereafter, with our consent. Furthermore, if a holder of Public Shares delivers the certificate representing such holder’s shares in connection with a redemption election and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, such holder may request that the transfer agent return the share certificate (physically or electronically).

In the event that a public shareholder tenders its shares and decides prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests that it does not want to redeem its shares, the shareholder may withdraw the tender. Requests to withdraw a demand for redemption after the deadline for exercising redemption requests can only be completed if we consent. If you delivered your share certificates (if applicable) for redemption to our transfer agent and decide prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests (or thereafter with our consent) not to redeem your shares, you may request that our transfer agent return the share certificates or restore the book entry shares registered in your name. You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the address listed above. In the event that a public shareholder tenders shares and the Articles Extension Proposal or Trust Extension Proposal is not approved, these shares will not be redeemed and the physical certificates representing these shares will be returned to the shareholder promptly following the determination that the Articles Extension Proposal or Trust Extension Proposal will not be approved. The Company anticipates that a public shareholder who tenders shares for redemption in connection with the vote to approve the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal would receive payment of the redemption price for such shares soon after the implementation of the Articles Extension and Trust Extension. The transfer agent will hold the share certificates of public shareholders that make the election until such shares are redeemed for cash or returned to such shareholders.

If I am a Public Unit holder, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my units?

No. Holders of outstanding Public Units must separate the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares.

If you hold Public Units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate (physically or electronically) for such units to Continental, our transfer agent, with written instructions to separate such units into Public Shares and Public Warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the delivery of the Public Share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the units into Public Shares and Public Warrants. See “How do I redeem my Public Shares?” above.

What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards, if your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your Company shares.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. The Company has engaged [     ] to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Meeting. The Company has agreed to pay [      ] customary fees, plus disbursements, and indemnify Alliance Advisors against certain damages, expenses, liabilities or claims relating to its services as the Company’s proxy solicitor. In addition to these mailed proxy materials, our directors and executive officers may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. These parties will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. The Company may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. While the payment of these expenses will reduce the cash available to us to consummate a business combination if the Articles Extension is approved, we do not expect such payments to have a material effect on our ability to consummate a business combination.

Where do I find the voting results of the Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the inspector of election and published in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which the Company is required to file with the SEC within four (4) business days following the Meeting.

Who can help answer my questions?

If you have questions about the proposals or if you need additional copies of the proxy statement or the enclosed proxy card you should contact the Company’s proxy solicitor at:

You may also obtain additional information about the Company from documents filed with the SEC by following the instructions in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some statements contained in this proxy statement are forward-looking in nature. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this proxy statement may include, for example, statements about: 

The forward-looking statements contained in this proxy statement are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in “Risk Factors” below. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. 

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully all of the risks described below, together with the other factors discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”) and the factors described in other reports we file with the SEC. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could also be materially and adversely affected by additional factors that apply to all companies generally, as well as other risks that are not currently known to us or that we currently view to be immaterial. In any such case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you may lose all or part of your original investment. While we attempt to mitigate known risks to the extent we believe to be practicable and reasonable, we can provide no assurance, and we make no representation, that our mitigation efforts will be successful. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

We may not be able to complete the WHC Business Combination by the expiration of the Articles Extension, even if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are approved by our shareholders, in which case, to the extent we do not obtain any further extension, we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our Public Shares and liquidate and dissolve.

We may not be able to complete the WHC Business Combination or any other business combination by the expiration of the Articles Extension, even if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are approved by our shareholders. Our ability to complete an initial business combination may be negatively impacted by general market conditions, volatility in the capital and debt markets and the other risks described herein, in our 2022 Annual Report, and in other reports that we file with the SEC. If we have not completed our initial business combination prior to the Articles Extension Date (assuming that the Articles Extension Proposal is approved), and we do not seek any further extension, we will (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Island law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Additionally, there will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless in the event of our winding up.

Additionally, we are required to offer shareholders the opportunity to redeem shares in connection with the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal and, if needed, any additional extensions, and we will be required to offer shareholders redemption rights again in connection with any shareholder vote to approve an initial business combination. Even if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are approved by our shareholders, it is possible that redemptions will leave us with insufficient cash to consummate an initial business combination on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. The fact that we will have separate redemption periods in connection with the Articles Extension and an initial business combination vote could exacerbate these risks. Other than in connection with a redemption offer or liquidation, our shareholders may be unable to recover their investment except through sales of our shares on the open market. The price of our shares may be volatile, and there can be no assurance that shareholders will be able to dispose of our shares at favorable prices, or at all.

Additional extensions beyond the Articles Extension may be required, which may subject us and our shareholders to additional risks and contingencies that would make it more challenging for us to complete an initial business combination.

Changes in SEC rules affecting special purpose acquisition companies may adversely affect our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination. In particular, certain of the procedures that we, a potential initial business combination target, or others may determine to undertake in connection with our proposed Business Combination may increase our costs and the time needed to complete our initial business combination and may constrain the circumstances under which we could complete an initial business combination. The need for compliance with the SPAC Rule Proposals may cause us to liquidate the funds in the Trust Account or liquidate and dissolve the Company at an earlier time than we might otherwise choose.

Our consummation of an initial business combination may be contingent upon our ability to comply with certain laws, regulations, interpretations and applications, and a post-business combination company may be subject to additional laws, regulations, interpretations and applications. Compliance with the foregoing may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time, and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our ability to complete an initial business combination.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules relating to, among other items, disclosures in business combination transactions involving special purpose acquisition companies, or SPACs, and private operating companies; the financial statement requirements applicable to transactions involving shell companies; the use of projections in SEC filings in connection with proposed business combination transactions; the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, including a proposed rule that would provide SPACs a safe harbor from treatment as an investment company if they satisfy certain conditions that limit a SPAC’s duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities (“SPAC Rule Proposals”). The SPAC Rule Proposals, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in a revised form, may increase the costs of and the time needed to complete a business combination, and may constrain the circumstances under which we could complete a business combination. Additionally, the need for compliance with the SPAC Rule Proposals may cause us to liquidate the funds in the Trust Account or liquidate and dissolve the Company at an earlier time than we might otherwise choose.

If we instruct the trustee to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of the consummation of a business combination or our liquidation, we may be able to mitigate the risk that we could be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act. Following the liquidation of securities in the Trust Account, we would likely receive minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

The funds in the Trust Account have, since our IPO, been held only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to be an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act) and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, we may, on or prior to the 18-month anniversary of the effective date of our IPO registration statement, instruct Continental, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of the consummation of our initial business combination or liquidation of the Company. Following such liquidation, we would likely receive minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account. However, interest previously earned on the funds held in the Trust Account still may be released to us to pay our taxes, if any. As a result, any decision to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash would reduce the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

In addition, even prior to the 18-month anniversary of the effective date of our IPO registration statement, we may be deemed to be an investment company. The longer that the funds in the Trust Account are held in short-term U.S. government treasury obligations or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, even prior to the 18-month anniversary, the greater the risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we may be required to liquidate and dissolve the Company. Accordingly, we may determine, in our discretion, to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account at any time, even prior to the 18-month anniversary, and instead hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash, which would further reduce the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company. As of the date of this proxy statement, we have not yet made any such determination to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account.

Spree may be deemed a “foreign person” and therefore may not be able to complete the Business Combination because the transaction may be subject to regulatory review and approval requirements, including pursuant to foreign investment regulations and review by governmental entities such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, or may be ultimately prohibited.

Our Sponsor, Spree Operandi, LP, is an exempted Cayman Islands limited partnership that is controlled by non-U.S. persons. WHC, as the target company, is domiciled in the United States. Certain transactions in the U.S. are subject to specific rules or regulations that may limit, prohibit, or create additional requirements with respect to foreign ownership of a U.S. company. In particular, because the Business Combination will be effected with WHC, a U.S. target company, the transaction may be subject to regulatory review and approval requirements by governmental entities, or ultimately prohibited. For example, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) has authority to review certain direct or indirect foreign investments in U.S. companies. Among other things, CFIUS is empowered to require certain foreign investors to make mandatory filings, to charge filing fees related to such filings, and to self-initiate national security reviews of foreign direct and indirect investments in U.S. companies if the parties to that investment choose not to file voluntarily. If CFIUS determines that an investment threatens national security, CFIUS has the power to impose restrictions on the investment or recommend that the President of the United States prohibit it or order divestment. Whether CFIUS has jurisdiction to review an acquisition or investment transaction depends on, among other factors, the nature and structure of the transaction, the nationality of the parties, the level of beneficial ownership interest and the nature of any information or governance rights involved.

As such, the proposed WHC Business Combination may be subject to CFIUS review. If the proposed WHC Business Combination with WHC falls within CFIUS’ jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that we will submit to CFIUS review on a voluntary basis, or to proceed with the WHC Business Combination without submitting to CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the WHC Business Combination. CFIUS may decide to delay or recommend that the President of the United States block our proposed initial business combination, require conditions with respect to such initial business combination or recommend that the President of the United States order us to divest all or a portion of the U.S. target business of our business combination that we acquired without first obtaining CFIUS approval, which may delay or prevent us from proceeding with the WHC Business Combination, which we believe would otherwise be beneficial to Spree and its shareholders. In addition, WHC may be the type of business that is subject to rules or regulations that limit or impose requirements with respect to foreign ownership.

If CFIUS determines it has jurisdiction, CFIUS may decide to recommend a block or delay the WHC Business Combination, or require conditions with respect to it, which may delay or prevent Spree from consummating the transaction. It is unclear at this stage whether the WHC Business Combination would fall within CFIUS’ jurisdiction, and if so, whether Spree would be required to make a mandatory filing or determine to submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS.

The process of government review, whether by CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy. Because Spree only has a limited amount time left to complete its initial business combination, its failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time period may require it to liquidate. If Spree is unable to consummate its initial business combination within the applicable time period required, including as a result of extended regulatory review, it will, as promptly as reasonably possible, redeem the public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account and as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, public shareholders will miss the opportunity to benefit from an investment in WHC and the chance of realizing future gains through any price appreciation in the combined company. Additionally, the Spree warrants will become worthless.

A 1% U.S. federal excise tax may be imposed on us in connection with our redemptions of shares, or in connection with a business combination or other shareholder vote pursuant to which shareholders would have a right to submit their shares for redemption. 

Pursuant to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), commencing in 2023, a 1% U.S. federal excise tax is imposed on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations and their “Specified Affiliates” as the term is defined in the Notice (as defined below). The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation and not on its shareholders. The amount of the excise tax is equal to 1% of the “fair market value”, within the meaning of these rules, of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the “fair market value” of certain new share issuances against the “fair market value” of share repurchases during the same taxable year. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Department”) has authority to promulgate regulations and provide other guidance regarding the excise tax. The Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) have recently issued Notice 2023-2, indicating the intention to propose regulations on the excise tax and issuing certain interim rules on which taxpayers may rely (the “Notice”). Under the interim rules, distributions in qualifying complete liquidations are exempt from the excise tax. In addition, the Notice provides that no distribution in a taxable year by a corporation that completely liquidates in a qualifying liquidation during such taxable year is subject to the excise tax.

If, as a result of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal, the amendment to the Articles extending our deadline for consummating an initial business combination is approved, our shareholders will have the right to require us to redeem their Public Shares. The excise tax may apply to such redemption and any other repurchase of our shares (including repurchases in connection with a business combination and/or our liquidation). The extent to which we would be subject to the excise tax in a taxable year would depend on a number of factors, including: (i) the “fair market value” of the redemptions and repurchases during such taxable year, (ii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances during such taxable year (including in connection with a business combination), (iii) if we liquidate in such taxable year and whether the liquidation qualifies for exemption, (iv) the structuring of any business combination, and (v) the content of any proposed or final regulations and other guidance from the Treasury Department or the IRS. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by us and not by the redeeming holders, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax remains to be determined. If we liquidate, it is not clear that our liquidation will qualify for exemption from the excise tax under the Notice because it will depend on the particular facts and circumstances of the liquidation. Any excise tax payable by us may cause a reduction in the cash available to us to complete a business combination, could affect our ability to complete a business combination, and may cause a reduction in amounts available for redemptions. 

BACKGROUND

We are a blank check company formed on August 6, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have generated no revenues to date and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we consummate our initial business combination. We completed our initial public offering in December 2021, and since that time, we have engaged in discussions with, and due diligence with respect to, potential business combination target companies. Since our entry into the WHC Business Combination Agreement in October 2022 (as described below), we have focused exclusively on pursuing the WHC Business Combination and related matters.

As of the record date, there were 25,945,715 ordinary shares outstanding, consisting of (i) 20,945,715 Class A ordinary shares, of which 20,000,000 are Public Shares and 945,715 are Private Shares, and (ii) 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares. We also have 10,000,000 Public Warrants, which are sold as part of the 20,000,000 Public Units in our IPO, as well as 472,858 Private Warrants, which were sold as part of our Private Units concurrently with our IPO, outstanding. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

If we do not complete our initial business combination within 18 months (which includes a three-month extension period) from the closing of our IPO, the proceeds from the sale of the Public Units and Private Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of our Public Shares, and all warrants will expire worthless.

We initially had 15 months from the closing date of our IPO (i.e., until March 20, 2023) to consummate our initial business combination, which period was to be extended: (a) an additional three months to a total of 18 months if we were to file (i) a Form 8-K that included a definitive merger or acquisition agreement or (ii) a proxy statement, registration statement or similar filing for an initial business combination, but without completing the initial business combination within such 15-month period; (b) up to two instances of an additional three months per instance for a total of up to 18 months or 21 months, respectively, by depositing into the Trust Account for each three month extension an amount equal to $0.10 per unit or (c) for an additional period as a result of a shareholder vote to amend our Articles (in each case, an “Extension Period”). Because we entered into the WHC Business Combination Agreement on October 31, 2022 and filed a Form 8-K to report our entry into that agreement, we qualified for an initial three-month Extension Period, until June 20, 2023.

The Board currently believes that there may not be sufficient time before June 20, 2023 to complete the WHC Business Combination. Accordingly, the Board believes that in order to give public shareholders an opportunity to invest in the combined company from the WHC Business Combination or to make an election to redeem their shares when the transaction is presented for shareholder approval, we may need to implement the Articles Extension and the Trust Extension.

Approximately $[       ] in proceeds from our IPO, the simultaneous sale of Private Units, and interest income are being held in our Trust Account in the United States maintained by Continental, acting as trustee, as of [      ], 2023. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may only be invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. The Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the earliest to occur of: (i) the completion of our initial business combination; (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 18 months (after including our initial three-month Extension Period) from the closing of the IPO, subject to further extension, or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity; or (iii) absent an initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO or during any Extension Period, our return of the funds held in the Trust Account to our public shareholders as part of our redemption of the Public Shares.

Our Sponsor, directors and officers have interests in the proposals that may be different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder. These interests include ownership of Founder Shares and warrants that may become exercisable in the future and the possibility of future compensatory arrangements. See the section entitled “The Meeting — Interests of our Sponsor, Directors and Officers.”

You are not being asked to vote on the WHC Business Combination or any other business combination at this time. If the Articles Extension and Trust Extension are implemented and you do not elect to redeem your Public Shares, provided that you are a shareholder on the record date for a meeting to consider an initial business combination, you will be entitled to vote on an initial business combination when it is submitted to shareholders and will retain the right to redeem your Public Shares for cash in the event that an initial business combination is approved and completed or we have not consummated a business combination by the expiration of the Articles Extension Date, subject to the terms of the Articles.

The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board in connection with an extraordinary general meeting in lieu of the 2022 annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on [     ], 2023 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time/ 4:00 p.m. local (Israel) time at Meitar Law Offices, 16 Abba Hillel Road, 10^th floor, Ramat Gan, Israel 5250608, and via live webcast, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place at which the Meeting may be adjourned or postponed. The Company will be holding the Meeting via live webcast. You will be able to attend the Meeting, vote and submit your questions online before the Meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/_______.

Purpose of the Meeting

At the Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon the following matters:

The Adjournment Proposal will only be presented at the Meeting if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Articles Extension Proposal, the Trust Extension Proposal, the Conversion Amendment Proposal, or the Director Election Proposal. The Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are essential to the overall implementation of the Board’s plan to extend the date by which the Company has to complete a business combination.

You are not being asked to vote on the WHC Business Combination or any other business combination transaction at this time. If the Articles Extension and Trust Extension proposals are implemented and you do not elect to redeem your Public Shares now, you will retain the right to vote for an initial business combination when it is submitted to shareholders and the right to redeem your Public Shares for cash in the event the WHC Business Combination (or any other business combination) is approved and completed or if the Company has not consummated the initial business combination prior to the Articles Extension Date, subject to the terms of the Articles.

Public shareholders may elect to redeem their Public Shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) in connection with the Articles Extension Proposal regardless of whether or how such public shareholders vote with respect to the Articles Extension Proposal. Additionally, redemption payments for redemption elections in connection with this Meeting will only be made if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal receive the requisite shareholder approvals and we determine to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension. If the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved by the requisite vote of shareholders, the remaining public shareholders will retain their right to redeem their Public Shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account when an initial business combination is submitted to the shareholders. Furthermore, if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are approved and the Articles Extension is implemented, then in accordance with the terms of Trust Agreement, as amended, the Trust Account will not be liquidated (other than to effectuate the redemptions) until the earlier of (a) receipt by the Trustee of a termination letter (in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement) or (b) the passage of the Articles Extension Date.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and, thereafter, with our consent. Furthermore, if a holder of Public Shares delivers the certificate representing such holder’s shares in connection with a redemption election and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, such holder may request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

The withdrawal of funds from the Trust Account in connection with a redemption election will reduce the amount held in the Trust Account following the redemption, and the amount remaining in the Trust Account may be significantly reduced from the approximate $[      ] that was in the Trust Account as of [      ], 2023.

If the Articles Extension Proposal or the Trust Extension Proposal is not approved and we do not consummate an initial business combination by June 20, 2023, in accordance with our Articles, we will (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Company’s warrants will expire worthless.

The approval of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Conversion Amendment Proposal require a special resolution as a matter of Cayman Islands law being a resolution passed by a majority of at least two-thirds of Spree’s shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution. Additionally, the approval of the Trust Extension Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 65% of the outstanding Company ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon. Approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution passed by a simple majority of the holders of the Class B ordinary shares in the capital of the Company as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution to approve that proposal. Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution which is a resolution passed by a simple majority of shareholders of Spree as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution. Our Board will abandon and not implement the Articles Extension Proposal or the Trust Extension Proposal unless our shareholders approve both the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal. Notwithstanding shareholder approval of the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal, our Board will retain the right to abandon and not implement the Articles Extension or Trust Extension at any time before the implementation thereof without any further action by our shareholders.

Only holders of record of our ordinary shares at the close of business on [ ], 2023 are entitled to notice of the Meeting and to vote at the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Meeting.

After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board has determined that each of the proposals are advisable and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” such proposals.

Voting Rights and Revocation of Proxies

The record date with respect to this solicitation is the close of business on [    ], 2023 and only shareholders of record at that time will be entitled to vote at the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof.

If you are a holder of record of Company ordinary shares, you can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Meeting by (i) delivering a later-dated, signed proxy card prior to the date of the Meeting, (ii) granting a subsequent proxy online or (iii) voting in person or virtually at the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting alone will not change your vote. If your ordinary shares are held in “street name” by a broker or other agent and you wish to revoke your proxy, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or agent.

We intend to release this proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card to our shareholders on or about [    ], 2023.

Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal

Neither Cayman Islands law nor our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide for appraisal or other similar rights for dissenting shareholders in connection with any of the proposals to be voted upon at the Meeting. Accordingly, our shareholders will have no right to dissent and obtain payment for their shares.

Outstanding Shares and Quorum

The number of outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the Meeting is 25,945,715 ordinary shares, which consists of (i) 20,945,715 Class A ordinary shares, of which 20,000,000 are Public Shares and 945,715 are Private Shares, and (ii) 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares (Founder Shares). Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote. The presence of holders of a majority of the shares being individuals present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorized representative or proxy shall be a quorum. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. Broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum. The Class A ordinary shares and Founder Shares are entitled to vote together as a single class on the Articles Extension Proposal, the Trust Extension Proposal, the Conversion Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Only the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the Director Election Proposal.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

An abstention occurs when a shareholder attends a meeting, or is represented by proxy, but abstains from voting. At the Meeting, abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. Assuming that a quorum is present, a Spree shareholder’s abstention will have no effect on the outcome of the votes on the Articles Extension Proposal, the Trust Extension Proposal, the Conversion Amendment Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal.

Broker non-votes are shares held in “street name” by brokers, banks and other nominees that are present or represented by proxy at a shareholder meeting, but with respect to which the broker, bank or other nominee is not instructed by the beneficial owner of such shares how to vote on a particular proposal and such broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power on such proposal. Because, under NYSE rules, brokers, banks and other nominees holding shares in “street name” do not have discretionary voting authority with respect to any of the four proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus, if a beneficial owner of ordinary shares held in “street name” does not give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee, then those shares will not be permitted under NYSE rules to be voted at the meeting, and thus will not be counted as present or represented by proxy at the meeting. The votes to approve the Articles Extension Proposal, the Conversion Amendment Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal are based on the votes actually cast by the shareholders present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. As a result, assuming that a quorum is present, if you fail to issue voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, it will have no effect on the outcome of the Articles Extension Proposal, Conversion Amendment Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal. The vote to approve the Trust Extension Proposal is based on the total ordinary shares outstanding. As a result, if you fail to issue voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, it will have the effect of a vote against the Trust Extension Proposal. 

Abstentions will count as a vote against the Trust Extension Proposal, but will have no effect on the remaining proposals, assuming a quorum is present. The failure to vote on the Trust Extension Proposal will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” such proposal, but will have no effect on the Articles Extension Proposal, the Conversion Amendment Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, or the Adjournment Proposal, assuming a quorum is present.

The chairman of the Meeting may adjourn the Meeting whether or not there is a quorum, to reconvene at the same or some other place, and may adjourn the Meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present. Under the Articles, if there is no quorum within half an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting, the Meeting will stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as our Board may determine. If at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting to commence, the shareholders present shall be a quorum. If the Meeting is adjourned for 30 days or more, notice of the adjourned Meeting must be given. Otherwise, it will not be necessary to give any such notice of the adjourned Meeting.

Voting Procedures

Each ordinary share that you own in your name entitles you to one vote on each of the proposals for the Meeting. Your proxy card shows the number of ordinary shares that you own.

Solicitation of Proxies

Your proxy is being solicited by our Board on the proposals being presented to shareholders at the Meeting. You may contact [     ], our proxy solicitor at:

[                ]

We have retained [     ] to aid in the solicitation of proxies. [    ] will receive a fee of approximately $[    ], as well as reimbursement for certain costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with their services, all of which will be paid by us. In addition to these mailed proxy materials, our directors and officers may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. Some banks and brokers have customers who beneficially own Public Shares listed of record in the names of nominees and we intend to request banks and brokers to solicit such customers and will reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for such solicitations.

Delivery of Proxy Materials to Shareholders

Unless we have received contrary instructions, we may send a single copy of this proxy statement to any household at which two or more shareholders reside if we believe the shareholders are members of the same family. This process, known as “householding,” reduces the volume of duplicate information received at any one household and helps to reduce our expenses. However, if shareholders prefer to receive multiple sets of our disclosure documents at the same address this year or in future years, the shareholders should follow the instructions described below. Similarly, if an address is shared with another shareholder and together both of the shareholders would like to receive only a single set of our disclosure documents, the shareholders should follow these instructions:

Interests of our Sponsor, Directors and Officers

When you consider the recommendation of our Board, you should keep in mind that our Sponsor, directors and officers have interests that may be different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder. These interests include, among other things, the interests listed below:

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to our current Articles, our public shareholders will be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon the approval of the Articles Extension, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. If your redemption request is properly made and the Articles Extension Proposal and Trust Extension Proposal are approved, these shares will cease to be outstanding and will represent only the right to receive such amount. For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $[    ] on [     ], 2023, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $[     ]. Public shareholders may elect to redeem their Public Shares regardless of whether or how they vote on the proposals at the Meeting, but redemption payments for redemption elections in connection with this Meeting will only be made if the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal receive the requisite shareholder approvals and we determine to implement the Articles Extension and Trust Extension.

In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must:

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company

1 State Street, 30^th Floor

New York, NY 10004

Attn: SPAC Redemption Team

E-mail: spacredemptions@continentalstock.com

and

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and, thereafter, with our consent. Furthermore, if a holder of Public Shares delivers the share certificate representing such holder’s shares in connection with a redemption election and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, such holder may request that the transfer agent return the share certificate (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the email address or mailing address listed above.

Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of our ordinary shares, as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their ordinary shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your ordinary shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in our ordinary shares when you wish to sell your shares.

If you exercise your redemption rights and the redemption is effectuated, your ordinary shares will cease to be outstanding and will only represent the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account. You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of the Company, if any. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly and timely request redemption.

If the Articles Extension Proposal and the Trust Extension Proposal are not approved and we do not consummate a business combination by June 20, 2023, we will (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Our warrants to purchase ordinary shares will expire worthless.

Holders of outstanding units must separate the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares.

If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver to Continental written instructions to separate such units into Public Shares and Public Warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance so that you may then exercise your redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares upon the separation of the units into Public Shares and Public Warrants.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions to Continental. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s deposit withdrawal at custodian (DWAC) system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of Public Shares and Public Warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares upon the separation of the units into Public Shares and Public Warrants. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your Public Shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your redemption rights.
