On May 14, 2025, Perimeter Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 24,150,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 3,150,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, beginning 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $241,500,000.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-285974) for the IPO, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 20, 2025, as amended (the “Registration Statement”):
