**Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

On January 26, 2023, Onyx Acquisition Co. I (the "***Company***") held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the "***Meeting***") at which the Company's shareholders approved two proposals to amend the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the "***Articles***"). The first proposal would extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from February 5, 2023 to August 7, 2023 (the "***Extension Amendment Proposal***"). The second proposal would remove the limitation that the Company shall not redeem Class A ordinary shares included as part of the units sold in its initial public offering (including any shares issued in exchange thereof) to the extent that such redemption would cause the Company's net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (the "***Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal***"). The Extension Amendment Proposal and Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal are described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement of the Company, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***SEC****"*) on December 8, 2022 (the "***Proxy Statement***"), as supplemented to date.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amendment to the Company's Articles, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

**Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.**

At the Meeting, holders of 29,442,403 ordinary shares (consisting of 22,829,903 Class A ordinary shares and 6,612,500 Class B ordinary shares) were present in person, virtually over the Internet or by proxy, representing 89.05% of the voting power of the Company's ordinary shares as of November 23, 2022, the record date for the Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business. A summary of the voting results at the Meeting is set forth below:

The shareholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal.

The voting results for each proposal were as follows:

**The Extension Amendment Proposal**

<u>For</u> <u>Against</u> <u>Abstain</u> <br> 29,330,369 112,034 0

**The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal**

<u>For</u> <u>Against</u> <u>Abstain</u> <br> 28,737,735 112,034 592,634

As there were sufficient votes to approve the above proposals, the "Adjournment Proposal" described in the Proxy Statement was not presented to shareholders.

**Item 8.01. Other Events.**

***Sponsor Contributions to Trust Account***

 ****

Based on the results of the Meeting, as previously announced, Onyx Acquisition Sponsor Co. LLC (our "***Sponsor***") will contribute (each such contribution, a "***Contribution***") into the Company's trust account (the "***Trust Account***") the lesser of (x) an aggregate of $120,000 or (y) $0.035 per share for each public share that was not redeemed at the Meeting for each monthly period until August 7, 2023 (commencing on February 7, 2023 and ending on the 7th day of each subsequent month), or portion thereof, that is needed by the Company to complete its initial business combination. For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum aggregate Contributions to the trust account shall not exceed $720,000 based on six monthly Contributions.

Each monthly Contribution into the Trust Account will take the form of a non-interest bearing, unsecured loan which will be repayable by the Company upon consummation of an initial business combination. If the Company does not consummate an initial business combination by the August 7, 2023, the promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

***Conversion of Founder Shares***

 ****

On January 26, 2023, based on the results of the Meeting, the holders of the Company's outstanding Class B ordinary shares (the "***founder shares***") converted all of the founder shares into Class A ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the conversions, such holders will not be entitled to receive any monies held in the Trust Account as a result of their ownership of any Class A ordinary shares issued upon conversion of the founder shares.

***Redemptions***

 ****

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, holders of 22,239,972 Class A ordinary shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.30 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $229 million. As a result, $229,071,711 will be removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders and 4,210,028 Class A ordinary shares remain outstanding (excluding the converted founder shares).
