GP-Act III Acquisition Corp. Announces Separate Trading of Class A Shares and Redeemable Warrants Starting July 1, 2024

NEW YORK, NY, June 28, 2024 - GP-Act III Acquisition Corp. (the "Company" or "GP-Act III") announced today that, commencing July 1, 2024, holders of the units sold in the Company's initial public offering of 28,750,000 units completed on May 13, 2024, may elect to separately trade the Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants included in the units. Those units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market (the "Nasdaq") under the symbol "GPATU," and the Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants that are separated will trade on the Nasdaq under the symbols "GPAT" and "GPATW," respectively. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. Holders of units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company's transfer agent, in order to separate the units into Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants.

GP-Act III is a tripartite partnership among GP Investments, IDS III LLC, and Boxcar Partners III, LLC, combining decades of experience in investing, building and managing multi-billion-dollar private and public companies across sectors and geographies. GP-Act III is a Cayman Islands exempted company whose business purpose is to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. While the Company may pursue an initial business combination target in any industry or geographic location (subject to certain limitations described in the Company's prospectus), the Company intends to focus its search on high potential businesses based in the United States.

The units were initially offered by the Company in an underwritten offering where Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. acted as the sole book-running manager.

The offering was made only by means of a prospectus, copies of which may be obtained for free from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") website at www.sec.gov or by contacting Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Attention: Capital Markets, 499 Park Avenue, 5th Floor New York, New York 10022; Email: [email protected].
