Shareholders will be voting on a proposal to allow Apollo Strategic to extend its transaction deadline up to nine months from May 12, 2023 to February 12, 2024. Shareholders will have until May 3 to redeem their shares.
Apollo Strategic II also today announced that it entered into a non-redemption agreement with an unaffiliated third party.
