NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In March 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000 (approximately $0.006 per share) in consideration for 4,312,500 shares of Class B Ordinary Shares with par value of $0.0001. Up to 562,500 of these Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor if the underwriter’s over-allotment option was not exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares will collectively represent approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the IPO. On November 12, 2021 the underwriter fully exercised the over- allotment option which resulted in the 562,500 shares no longer being subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor and the Company’s directors and executive officers have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property.

On May 8, 2023, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,237,499 (the “Sponsor Shares”) of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares to the Sponsor upon the conversion of an equal number of shares of Class B Ordinary Shares (the “Sponsor Conversion”). Combined with the Director Share conversion discussed below, the Sponsor Conversion left 1 Class B ordinary share outstanding. These Sponsor Shares continue to hold the same legend as they did prior to their conversion. Accordingly, these shares are accounted for as Class A Ordinary Shares at their par value.

EarlyBirdCapital Founder Shares

In March 2021, the Company issued to EarlyBirdCapital and its designees an aggregate of 150,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (“EBC Founder Shares”) at a price of $0.0001 per share. The Company estimated the fair value of the EBC Founder Shares to be $870 based upon the price of the Founder Shares issued to the Sponsor. The holders of the EBC Founder Shares have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares until the completion of a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have agreed (i) to waive their conversion rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The EBC Founder Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement related to the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statements related to the IPO, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statements related to the IPO except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the IPO and their officers or partners, associated persons or affiliates.

Director Shares

In October 2021, the Sponsor transferred 75,000 Founder Shares to the independent directors (“Director Shares”) at a price of $0.0001 per share. The Company estimated the fair value of the Director Shares to be $450,676 based upon the price of the Founder Shares issued to the Sponsor.

On May 8, 2023, the Company issued an aggregate of 75,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (together with the Sponsor Shares, the “Converted Class A Ordinary Shares”) to the Directors and the holders of the Company’s 75,000 Class B Ordinary Shares upon the conversion of an equal number of shares of Class B Ordinary Shares (together with the Sponsor Conversion, the “Conversion”). On the same day, in connection with the closing of the Sunorange Investment, 61,875 of the Converted Class A Ordinary Shares held by the Directors were transferred to designees of Sunorange.

The conversion of these Director Shares from Class B to Class A was not the result of a Business Combination, and the Company has previously recognized $450,676 in expenses related to these Director Shares. As such, these shares will continue to be held at their book value.

Related Party Loans

In March 2021, the Sponsor issued an unsecured Promissory Note to the Company, pursuant to which the Company was permitted to borrow an aggregate principal amount of $250,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing, and the Promissory Note was fully repaid as of November 8, 2021, upon the closing of the IPO.

In addition, in order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor may, but is not obligated to, provide the Company with Working Capital Loans. Any such loans would be on an interest-free basis. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. At the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. On May 8, 2023, in connection with the Sunorange Investment, the outstanding balance under the existing Promissory Note was forgiven. This was deemed to be a benefit to the Company under SAB Topic 5T. In order to recognize this benefit, the Company de-recognized the outstanding Promissory Note and reclassified it to additional paid-in capital, as an in-substance capital contribution. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loan, respectively.

On June 2, 2023, the Company issued the June 2023 Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1,200,000 to the Sponsor, which will be deposited into the Trust Account for the benefit of each Public Share that was not redeemed in connection with the Company’s May 8, 2023 shareholder vote to approve the Extension. The Sponsor agreed to pay $100,000 per month until the completion of an initial Business Combination, commencing on May 8, 2023 and continuing through May 8, 2024. The June 2023 Promissory Note bears no interest and is due and payable upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its Business Combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. At the election of the Sponsor, up to $1,200,000 of the unpaid principal amount of the June 2023 Promissory Note may be converted into Conversion Warrants at a conversion price of $1.00 per warrant. The Conversion Warrants shall be identical to the Placement Warrants issued by the Company at the IPO. The Company has determined that the fair value of the June 2023 Promissory Note is its face value as the note was not issued with a substantial premium. The Sponsor funded the first three months of the June 2023 Promissory Note in its first payment. As of December 31, 2023, the Sponsor had deposited an aggregate of $800,000 in payments to support the Extension on behalf of the Company. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the outstanding balance of the June 2023 Promissory Note was $1,100,000 and $800,000, respectively.

On November 8, 2023, the Company issued the November 2023 Promissory Note the amount of $1,500,000 to Sunorange Investment. The November 2023 Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and is due at the earlier of consummation of the Business Combination or liquidation. Prior to the November 2023 Promissory Note being in place, related parties were making advances to the Company and on behalf of the Company for the purposes of paying its vendors. All advances made by the related parties between May 8, 2023 and the date of execution are retroactively covered by the November 2023 Promissory Note. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, $1,204,630 and $542,503, respectively, was outstanding under the November 2023 Promissory Note.
