EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 14A is being filed to amend the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) of Oyster Enterprises Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “we”), for its special meeting of stockholders to be held at 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on December 19, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”), which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 28, 2022, in order to (i) correct the record date for the Special Meeting from November 21, 2022 to November 22, 2022 and (ii) update the amount held in the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and the estimated per-share Public Share (as defined in the Proxy Statement) redemption price as of the November 22, 2022 record date. Only stockholders of record as of November 22, 2022 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. All references to “November 21, 2022” in the Proxy Statement are hereby amended to “November 22, 2022.” Based upon the amount held in the Trust Account as of November 22, 2022, which was approximately $232,443,542 (inclusive of approximately $1,020,000 in franchise tax and income tax obligations, which we expect to withdraw out of investment income earned on the Trust Account to pay taxes), which includes $100,000 that we will withdraw prior to redeeming any Public Shares to use to cover the cost of dissolution expenses, the Company estimates that the per-share price at which Public Shares may be redeemed from cash held in the Trust Account will be approximately $10.06 at the time of the Special Meeting. All references to “$232,420,518” and “$10.05” in the Proxy Statement are hereby amended to “$232,443,542” and “approximately $10.06”, respectively. Except for the foregoing corrections, no other changes have been made to the Proxy Statement. The date and time of the Special Meeting and the matters to be voted upon all remain the same.
