On November 13, 2023, EG Acquisition Corp. (the Company or EG) filed a definitive proxy statement (the Definitive Proxy Statement), as supplemented on December 1, 2023, for the solicitation of proxies in connection with a special meeting of the Companys stockholders (the Special Meeting) to consider and vote on the Companys proposed initial business combination (the Business Combination) with LGM Enterprises, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (LGM or flyExclusive).
On December 5, 2023, the Company announced (i) the postponement of the Special Meeting (the Postponement) from the previously scheduled date of December 7, 2023, at 10:00 a.m., New York Time, to Tuesday, December 18, 2023, at 10:00 a.m., New York Time, in order to allow additional time for the Company to engage with its stockholders and (ii) the resulting extension of the deadline from December 5, 2023 (two business days before the Special Meeting, as originally scheduled) to December 14, 2023 (two business days before the postponed Special Meeting) for delivery of redemption and redemption withdrawal requests from the Companys stockholders (the Redemption Deadline Extension).
Supplement to the Definitive Proxy Statement
The Company has determined to supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement as set forth below (the Proxy Supplement) to provide information about the Postponement and the Redemption Deadline Extension.
There is no change to the location, the record date, or any of the other proposals to be acted upon at the Special Meeting.

The following disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K supplement, and should be read in conjunction with, the disclosures contained in the Companys definitive proxy statement (the Definitive Proxy Statement), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on November 13, 2023, as supplemented on December 1, 2023, which in turn should be read in its entirety. To the extent the information set forth herein differs from or updates information contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement, the information set forth herein shall supersede or supplement the information in the Definitive Proxy Statement. All other information in the Definitive Proxy Statement remains unchanged.
As provided in the Definitive Proxy Statement, the Company is seeking stockholder approval of, among other things, Companys proposed initial business combination (the Business Combination) with LGM Enterprises, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (LGM or flyExclusive). The purpose of the supplemental disclosures is to provide information about (i) the postponement of the Special Meeting related to the Definitive Proxy Statement and (ii) the resulting extension of the deadline for delivery of redemption and redemption withdrawal requests from the Companys stockholders to the Companys transfer agent.
Terms used herein, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement.
Special Meeting Date
On December 5, 2023, the Company announced that it has determined to postpone (the Postponement) the date of the Special Meeting from December 7, 2023 to December 18, 2023. As a result of this change, the Special Meeting will now be held at 10:00 a.m. New York Time on December 18, 2023 virtually at https://www.cstproxy.com/egacquisition/sm2023 or by dialing (within the U.S. and Canada) 1 800-450-7155 (or +1 857-999-9155 if attendees are located outside the U.S. and Canada), or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned.

Stockholders who do not wish to withdraw their previously submitted redemption requests need not take any further action.
Additional Information

It is not intended to provide the basis for any investment decision or any other decision in respect to the proposed Business Combination.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transaction between flyExclusive and EG. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words believe, project, expect, anticipate, estimate, intend, strategy, future, opportunity, plan, may, should, will, would, will be, will continue, will likely result, and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of EGs securities, (ii) the risk that the transaction may not be completed by EGs business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by EG, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the approval by the shareholders of EG and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (iv) the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the transaction, (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Equity Purchase Agreement, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on flyExclusives business relationships, operating results and business generally, (vii) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations of flyExclusive and potential difficulties in flyExclusive employee retention as a result of the transaction, (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against flyExclusive or against EG related to the Equity Purchase Agreement or the transaction, (ix) the ability to maintain the listing of the EGs securities on a national securities exchange, (x) the price of EGs securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which EG plans to operate or flyExclusive operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting EGs or flyExclusives business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xi) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities, and (xii) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive aviation industry. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully
consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors section of EGs registration on Form S-1, the Definitive Proxy Statement that was filed as discussed above and other documents filed by EG from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and flyExclusive and EG assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. flyExclusive nor EG gives any assurance that either flyExclusive or EG or the combined company will achieve its expectations.
