Item 1.02 Termination of A Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 11, 2023, Apeiron Capital Investment Corp. (the “Company”) notified GIO World Health, Ltd. (“GIO”) that the Company has elected to terminate the Business Combination Agreement between the parties, dated as of March 8, 2023 (as amended May 10, 2023, the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to Section 8.1(b) thereof, effective as of August 14, 2023 (the “Termination”). Upon the effectiveness of the Termination, the Business Combination Agreement will be of no further force and effect, with the exception of the specified provisions in Section 8.2 of the Business Combination Agreement, which shall survive the termination of the Business Combination Agreement and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
The Company will not be able to consummate an initial business combination by August 14, 2023, and pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has determined to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible redeem the public shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by the end of the Combination Period.
The Company intends to file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to suspend its reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
In order to provide for the disbursement of funds from the Company’s trust account, the Company will instruct Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, to take all necessary actions to liquidate the securities held in the trust account. The proceeds thereof, less $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and net of taxes payable, will be held in a non-interest bearing account while awaiting disbursement to the holders of the Class A common stock (the “Redemption Amount”). All other costs and expenses associated with implementing the Company’s plan of dissolution will be funded from proceeds held outside of the trust account. The Company anticipates that the Redemption Amount will be paid to holders of the shares of the of the Class A common stock outstanding at the close of business on August 14, 2023, without any required action on their part, at which point such shares shall be deemed canceled and will represent only the right to receive the Redemption Amount. Following such redemption, the shares of the Class A common stock will no longer be outstanding and the Company’s warrants will expire in accordance with their terms upon the liquidation of the Company. The redemption of the Class A common stock is expected to be completed within ten business days after August 14, 2023.
On August, 11, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the Termination and the liquidation. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Apeiron Capital Investment Corp. Announces Termination of Business Combination Agreement and Liquidation
BOSTON, MA – August 11, 2023 - Apeiron Capital Investment Corp. (the “Company”) announced today that it has notified GIO World Health, Ltd. that the Company has elected to terminate the Business Combination Agreement between the parties, dated as of March 8, 2023 (as amended May 10, 2023, the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to Section 8.1(b) thereof, effective as of August 14, 2023 (the “Termination”). Upon the effectiveness of the Termination, the Business Combination Agreement will be of no further force and effect, with the exception of the specified provisions in Section 8.2 of the Business Combination Agreement, which shall survive the termination of the Business Combination Agreement and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.
Due to its inability to complete an initial business combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, the Company intends to liquidate and dissolve, effective as of the close of business on August 14, 2023, and will redeem all of the outstanding shares of common stock (“Public Shares”) that were included in the units issued to public stockholders in its initial public offering (the “Public Shares”), at a per-share redemption price equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of outstanding public shares.
As of the close of business on August 14, 2023, the Public Shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount.
In order to provide for the disbursement of funds from the trust account, the Company has instructed the trustee of the trust account to take all necessary actions to liquidate the trust account. The proceeds of the trust account will be held in a non-interest bearing account while awaiting disbursement to the holders of the Public Shares. Record holders will receive their pro rata portion of the proceeds of the trust account by delivering their Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent. Beneficial owners of Public Shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the redemption amount. The redemption of the Public Shares is expected to be completed within ten business days after August 14, 2023.
The Company’s sponsor has agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to its founder shares issued in a private placement in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless.
