WESTBURY, N.Y., July 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. V (NYSE: KCGI.U) (the "Company") announced that on July 28, 2023 it filed a definitive proxy statement (the "Definitive Proxy Statement") for the solicitation of proxies in connection with an extraordinary general meeting (the "Extraordinary General Meeting") of the Company's shareholders to be held on August 15, 2023 to consider and vote on, among other proposals, an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from August 17, 2023 to August 17, 2024 (such proposal, the "Extension Amendment Proposal"). The Extension Amendment Proposal is described in more detail in the Definitive Proxy Statement. 

If the Extension Amendment Proposal is not approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem all of the Company's Class A ordinary shares (the "Public Shares") included as part of the units sold in the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO") that was consummated on August 17, 2021, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account (the "Trust Account") established in connection with the IPO including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, net of taxes payable (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders' rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining shareholders and its board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Such redemption would occur by the close of business on August 18, 2023 with the last day of trading of the Company's securities on August 17, 2023.
