On January 8, 2022, the Company issued an additional 287,500 ordinary shares to the Sponsor for no additional consideration, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”).

The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part (refer Note 7). On January 6, 2023, the underwriters notified the Company that it is exercising the over-allotment option with respect to the 900,000 additional Units, which was subsequently closed on January 9, 2023, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $9,000,000. Simultaneously, an amount of $352,350 due to related party was converted into over-allotment of Private Placement, and the underwriter deposited additional $34,650 on behalf of Sponsor for 17,325 Founder Shares for $2.00 per share which was sold by the Sponsor to underwriters. As a result, the Sponsor purchased an additional 38,700 Private Units, an aggregate of 409,200 units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit (an aggregate of $4,092,000).

 

On January 3, 2023, the Founder Shares and Private Units were placed into an escrow account maintained by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as escrow agent. The Founder Shares and Private Units (and underlying securities) will not, subject to certain exceptions, be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow in the case of (i) 50% of the Founder Shares and Private Units (and underlying securities) until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or (B) the date on which the closing price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after our initial business combination and (ii) the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares and Private Units (and underlying securities) until six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to our initial business combination, we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property.
