About GigCapital5

GigCapital5 is a blank check company, also commonly referred to as a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. While GigCapital5’s efforts to identify a target business may span many industries, the focus of GigCapital5’s search is for prospects within the technology, media and telecommunications, aerospace and defense, advanced medical equipment, intelligent automation and sustainable industries. GigCapital5 was sponsored by GigAcquisitions5, LLC, which was founded by GigFounders, LLC, each a member entity of GigCapital Global, and formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On December 8, 2022, GigCapital5 entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”) with QTI Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of GigCapital5 (“Merger Sub”), and QT Imaging (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”). Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into QT Imaging (the “Merger”), with QT Imaging as the surviving company in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and after giving effect to the Merger, the Surviving Corporation will be a wholly owned subsidiary of GigCapital5, which will be renamed as QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (“QTI Holdings”).

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, GigCapital5 filed with the SEC the Registration Statement, which includes a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus (the “BCA Proxy Statement”) to be distributed to holders of GigCapital5 Common Stock in connection with GigCapital5’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by GigCapital5’s stockholders with respect to the Business Combination and the other matters as described in the Registration Statement and a prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to the stockholders of QT Imaging in connection with the Business Combination. After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, GigCapital will mail a definitive BCA Proxy Statement, when available, to its stockholders. Investors and security holders and other interested parties are urged to read the BCA Proxy Statement, any amendments thereto and any other documents filed with the SEC carefully and in their entirety when they become available because they will contain important information about GigCapital5, QT Imaging and the proposed Business Combination. Such persons can also read GigCapital5’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K for more information on the security holdings of its officers and directors and their respective interests as security holders in the consummation of the Transactions described in this Current Report. In addition, GigCapital5 filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Extension Proxy Statement”) prior to the Special Meeting seeking to extend the business combination period to December 31, 2023. The BCA Proxy Statement, Registration Statement, the Extension Proxy Statement, and GigCapital5’s other reports can be obtained, without charge, at the SEC’s web site (www.sec.gov) and on GigCapital5’s website at www.gigcapital5.com.
