Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On May 16, 2024, Tao Tan gave notice of his resignation from the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Spectaire Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and its committees, which resignation was effective as of May 22, 2024. Mr. Tan’s decision to resign was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices, or the Company’s management or Board.

 

On May 22, 2024, the Board appointed Rick Gaenzle as a member of the Board to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Tan’s resignation. Mr. Gaenzle will also serve on the Audit Committee of the Board.

 

Mr. Gaenzle has over 30 years of private equity investment and corporate finance experience; He currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors of Perception Capital Corp. III, and Perception Capital Corp. IV., and Managing Member of Perception Capital Partners L.L.C., the Sponsor. He is a Managing Member of Ocean Lane Partners, L.L.C. and a co-founder and Managing Director of Gilbert Global Equity Capital, L.L.C., the principal investment advisor to Gilbert Global Equity Partners, L.P. and related entities, a $1.2 billion leveraged buyout and private equity fund. Previously, Mr. Gaenzle was a Principal of Soros Capital L.P., the principal venture capital and leveraged equity entity of the Quantum Group of Funds and a principal advisor to Quantum Industrial Holdings Ltd. Prior to joining Soros Capital, Mr. Gaenzle held various positions at PaineWebber Inc. Mr. Gaenzle previously served on the boards of CPM Holdings, Inc., True Temper Corp, Optical Capital Group, Inc., Birch Telecommunications, Inc., E-via S.p.A., Tinka-ServiCos de Consultoria, S.A., the LaserSharp Corporation, Perception Capital Corp. II, and Sustainable Opportunities. Mr. Gaenzle holds a B.A. from Hartwick College and an M.B.A. from Fordham University. We believe Mr. Gaenzle’s substantial business experience makes him well qualified to serve on our board.

 

Mr. Gaenzle will receive compensation consistent with that provided to the Company’s other non-employee directors. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Gaenzle and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director.

 

There is no family relationship between Mr. Gaenzle, on the one hand, and any director or executive officer of the Company or any person nominated or chosen to become a director or executive officer of the Company. Additionally, Mr. Gaenzle does not have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
