Global Technology Acquisition Corp. I Announces Liquidation

ZEPHYR COVE, NEVADA, October 16, 2024 - Global Technology Acquisition Corp. I (the "Company") (Nasdaq: GTAC), announced today that it is unable to complete an initial business combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended (the "Charter"), and therefore intends to dissolve and liquidate in accordance with the provisions of the Charter, and will redeem all of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares that were included in the units issued in its initial public offering (the "Public Shares"), at a per-share redemption price of approximately $11.50 (after taking into account the removal of a portion of the accrued interest in the trust account to pay taxes and $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses).

As of the close of business on October 18, 2024, the Public Shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The Company anticipates that the last day of trading of the Public Shares and the Company's publicly traded units and warrants on the Nasdaq Stock Market will be on or around October 17, 2024, and trading of Public Shares will be suspended effective before the opening of markets on October 18, 2024.

In order to provide for the disbursement of funds from the trust account, the Company has instructed the trustee of the trust account to take all necessary actions to liquidate any securities held in the trust account. The proceeds of the trust account will be held in a non-interest bearing account while awaiting disbursement to the holders of the Public Shares. Record holders will receive their pro rata portion of the proceeds of the trust account by delivering their Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company's transfer agent. Beneficial owners of Public Shares held in "street name," however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the redemption amount. The redemption of the Public Shares is expected to be completed as promptly as practicable, but no later than October 25, 2024.

All holders of the Company's Class B ordinary shares have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their outstanding Class B ordinary shares of the Company, and the Company's former sponsor has waived its redemption rights with respect to 1,300,000 of the Company's Class A ordinary shares that were issued upon the conversion of 1,300,000 of the Company's Class B ordinary shares. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company's warrants, which will expire worthless.

The Company expects that the Nasdaq Stock Market will file a Form 25 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to delist the Company's securities. The Company thereafter expects to file a Form 15 with the Commission to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
