NBST Newbury Street Acquisition Corporation

Infinite Reality (“Infinite Reality” or “iR”), a leading global provider of cutting-edge virtual, AI-powered immersive experiences, today announced that, on June 10, 2024, its partner for its previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”), Newbury Street Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: NBST) (“Newbury” or the “Company”), received notice from the Nasdaq Office of General Counsel that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) had granted the Company’s request to continue its listing on Nasdaq through September 23, 2024 (the “Extended Date”).

As previously reported by Newbury, the Company received notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (“Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that unless the Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel, the Company’s securities would be subject to suspension and delisting from Nasdaq due to the Company’s non-compliance with Listing Rule IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of the registration statement filed in connection with its initial public offering. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel and the hearing was held on May 23, 2024.

The Panel’s decision is subject to certain conditions, including that the Company will have completed its previously announced proposed Business Combination with Infinite Reality on or before the Extended Date and that the combined company will have demonstrated compliance with all applicable requirements for initial listing on Nasdaq.

In the event that the Company does not complete the Business Combination by the Extended Date or fails to demonstrate compliance with the Nasdaq initial or continued listing rules, the Company’s securities would be subject to suspension on Nasdaq, absent an additional extension.
