PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED SEPTEMBER 11, 2025

PROXY STATEMENT FOR EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD

PROSPECTUS FOR UP TO 66,759,245.50 CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES AND 90,808,887.50 CLASS B ORDINARY SHARES OF UNITED HYDROGEN GLOBAL INC.

References herein to “United Hydrogen” refer to United Hydrogen Group Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company. References to “Pubco,” the issuer of all securities being registered pursuant to this registration statement, refer to United Hydrogen Global Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company. After the Business Combination (as defined below), United Hydrogen will be the wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco.

The board of directors of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“Aimei Health” or “Purchaser”), has unanimously approved that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2024, as amended as of June 6, 2025 (as may be further amended and/or amended and restated, the “Business Combination Agreement” or “BCA”), with Aimei Investment Ltd, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands, in its capacity as, from and after the Closing (as defined below), the representative of Aimei Health and the shareholders of Aimei Health (the “Purchaser Representative” or the “Sponsor”) immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined below), Pubco, United Hydrogen Victor Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (the “First Merger Sub”), United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (the “Second Merger Sub”), and United Hydrogen Group Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“United Hydrogen”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), (a) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (b) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Aimei Health surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco (the Mergers together with the share exchange and other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and other ancillary documents, the “Transactions” or “Business Combination”).

Consideration

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the Aggregate Merger Consideration Amount (as defined below) to be paid to the shareholders of United Hydrogen is $1,500,000,000 and will be paid entirely in shares, comprised of newly issued Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares (as defined below) of Pubco, with each share valued at the Per Share Price (as defined below).

As a result of the Mergers, (i) each of the ordinary shares of United Hydrogen that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time (as defined below), except for the United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares and the United Hydrogen Dissenting Shares (each as defined below), will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of the Class A Ordinary Shares of Pubco (“Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares”) equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) each United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the number of the Class B Ordinary Shares of Pubco (“Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares”) equal to the Exchange Ratio; (iii) each convertible note of United Hydrogen that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be converted into such number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen pursuant to the terms thereof, which resulting shares will be converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares based on the Exchange Ratio; (iv) at the Effective Time, each public or private unit of Aimei Health (each, an “Aimei Health Unit” or “Unit”) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective time (as defined

 

Table of Contents

below) shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one ordinary share of Aimei Health and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of Aimei Health (the “Aimei Health Right” or “Right”); (v) at the Effective Time, each unredeemed outstanding Aimei Health ordinary share shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share; and (vi) at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Right shall be cancelled and automatically converted into one-fifth of one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share. The newly issued Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will have the same economic terms as the newly issued Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, except that each Pubco Class B Ordinary Share will be entitled to ten (10) votes per share compared with one vote per share for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares with all Pubco Ordinary Shares (as defined below) voting together as a single class on most matters. See “Description of Pubco Securities.” Michael&Jason Limited, a BVI business company solely owned and controlled by Xia Ma, United Hydrogen’s founder and director, will beneficially own all of the issued Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination. The newly issued Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to be received by Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders and affiliates in connection with Transactions will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will not have any conversion, pre-emptive, or other subscription rights and there will be no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

For the purposes of the Business Combination Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

Exchange Ratio” means the quotient of (i) the aggregate number of United Hydrogen Merger Shares (as defined below) as of the First Merger Effective Time divided by (ii) United Hydrogen Fully Diluted Shares (as defined below).

Per Share Price” means $10.00 (as equitably adjusted for share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the Closing).

Redemption Price” means an amount equal to the price at which each share of Aimei Health ordinary share is redeemed or converted pursuant to the Redemption in accordance with the provisions of Aimei Health’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as equitably adjusted for share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations, and the like after the Closing).

United Hydrogen Merger Shares” means a number of Pubco Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing (i) the Aggregate Merger Consideration Amount by (ii) the Per Share Price.

United Hydrogen Fully Diluted Shares” means the sum of (i) the aggregate number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time (including shares issued upon the exercise or conversion of convertible notes of United Hydrogen, in each case prior to the First Merger Effective Time, but excluding any shares to be cancelled pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement), and (ii) the maximum number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen issuable upon full exercise, exchange or conversion of all convertible notes of United Hydrogen, outstanding as of the First Merger Effective Time.

If 3,995,733 ordinary shares of Aimei Health are redeemed, which is the maximum number of ordinary shares of Aimei Health that can be redeemed as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders, the Sponsor, and the Sellers (as defined below) are expected to beneficially own approximately 0.90%, 1.28%, and 97.67%, respectively, of the aggregate Ordinary Shares of Pubco and approximately 0.14%, 0.20%, and 99.63%, respectively, of the voting power of Pubco following the Closing. As such, the shareholders of Aimei Health who do not redeem their ordinary shares of Aimei Health will experience immediate and material dilution upon closing of the Business Combination. See “Interests of Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, Directors, and Officers in the Business Combination” for more information on the securities that Aimei Health’s affiliates will receive in connection with the Transactions.

Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, Michael&Jason Limited, a BVI business company solely owned and controlled by Xia Ma, the founder and director of United Hydrogen, owns 181,617,775 ordinary shares of United Hydrogen. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the United Hydrogen ordinary shares beneficially owned by Ms. Ma will be converted into 90,808,887.50 Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, representing 100% of Pubco’s issued Class B Ordinary Shares and 57.63% of the aggregate Ordinary Shares of Pubco, assuming no redemptions by Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders. Pubco has a dual-class voting structure, consisting of Pubco Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares. Under this structure, holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to ten (10) votes per share. This unbalanced and disparate allocation of voting power will cause Ms. Ma, as the sole beneficial owner of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, to have a disparately higher concentration of voting power, representing approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting

power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result of the disparate voting power of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Ms. Ma, Ms. Ma will possess the ability to control Pubco’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, the election of directors, and other significant corporate actions. Immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination, the most significant holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares will be Michael&Jason Limited, Meijin (Beijing) Hydrogen Energy Technology Co., Ltd., and Runqing Holding Limited, which will own 93.15%, 1.78%, and 1.05%, respectively, of the total voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by Aimei Health Public Shareholders, and 93.53%, 1.79%, and 1.05% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares.

The Aimei Health board of directors received and considered a fairness opinion and supporting analysis provided by an independent valuation consultancy, CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Ltd. (“CHFT”). CHFT performed various valuation and financial analyses, including the guideline public company analyses. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Basis for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Recommendation — Valuation Analysis and Fairness Opinion” and “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of the Opinion of CHFT.”

There may be actual or potential material conflicts of interest between the Sponsor or its affiliates, or Aimei Health’s officers, directors, or promoters, and the unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health. Additionally, there may be an actual or potential material conflict of interest arising from the manner in which Aimei Health compensates the Sponsor or the officer and its directors of Aimei Health. See “Aimei Health’s Directors and Executive Officers — Conflicts of Interest.”

Proposals to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the other matters discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus will be presented at the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of Aimei Health scheduled to be held on [•], 2025 (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”).

Aimei Health’s Public Units (as defined below), Public Shares (as defined below), and Public Rights (as defined below) are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbols “AFJKU,” “AFJK,” and “AFJKR,” respectively. Pubco will apply for listing, to be effective at the time of the Business Combination, of its Class A Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market (together with Nasdaq Global Market, “Nasdaq”) under the symbol “UHL.” Pubco will not have units or rights traded following consummation of the Business Combination.

Each of Aimei Health and Pubco is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

This proxy statement/prospectus provides you with detailed information about the Business Combination and other matters to be considered at the Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders of Aimei Health. Aimei Health encourages you to carefully read this entire document and the documents incorporated by reference. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” on page 49 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Pubco, with United Hydrogen being its wholly owned subsidiary post-Business Combination, is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with its headquarters in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).    United Hydrogen conducts its operations through its subsidiaries, including Qingyuan Jiachuang (Zhejiang) New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Yixun Chuangneng New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. Investments in Pubco’s securities are not purchases of equity securities of these operating subsidiaries in the PRC, but instead are purchases of equity securities of a Cayman Islands holding company with no material operations of its own.

Pubco is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with no material operations of its own and is not a Chinese operating company. As a result, Pubco will conduct all of its operations through its operating subsidiaries in the PRC following the consummation of the Business Combination. The Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares offered in this proxy statement/prospectus are shares of the Cayman Islands holding company instead of shares of Pubco’s operating entities in the PRC. Holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares do not directly own any equity interests in Pubco’s PRC subsidiaries, but will instead own shares of a Cayman Islands holding company. The Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow Pubco’s corporate structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or

a material change in the value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, including that it could cause the value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow Pubco’s holding company structure, which may result in a material change in its operations and/or a material change in the value of the securities Pubco is registering for sale, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.”

Pubco faces various risks and uncertainties relating to doing business in the PRC. Pubco conducts its business mostly in the PRC, and it is subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations of the PRC. For example, it faces risks associated with regulatory approvals on overseas offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory actions, and oversight on cybersecurity, data security and data privacy which may impact its ability to conduct certain businesses, accept foreign investments, or list and conduct offerings on a United States or other foreign exchange. Recently, the PRC regulatory authorities have indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or involve foreign investment in China-based issuers, and initiated a series of regulatory actions and made a number of public statements, some of which are published with little or no advance notice to the public. The PRC government’s significant authority in regulating operations of Pubco’s operating entities in the PRC and the PRC government’s oversight and control over offerings conducted overseas by, and foreign investment in, China-based issuers could result in a material adverse change in Pubco’s operations and the value of its securities, significantly limit or completely hinder its ability to continue to offer securities to investors, or cause the value of the securities of Pubco to significantly decline or become worthless and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. United Hydrogen may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies. Please refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC” for a detailed discussion of such risks.

The General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the “Opinions on Severely Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities According to Law” (the “Opinions”), which were made available to the public on July 6, 2021. The Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies, and proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems, to deal with the risks and incidents facing China-based overseas-listed companies and the demand for cybersecurity and data privacy protection. On February 17, 2023, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) promulgated the Trial Measures for the Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Enterprises (the “Trial Measures”) and five supporting guidelines, which became effective on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, PRC domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. The Trial Measures specify that the offering and listing of an issuer shall be deemed as an indirect overseas offering and listing of a PRC domestic company if, among other features, the issuer derives over 50% of any of the revenue, net income, total assets, or net assets from the PRC within the most recent completed fiscal year. On February 24, 2023, the CSRC, together with the Ministry of Finance (the “MOF”), National Administration of State Secrets Protection and National Archives Administration of China, revised the Provisions issued by the CSRC and National Administration of State Secrets Protection and National Archives Administration of China in 2009. The revised Provisions were issued under the title the “Provisions on Strengthening Confidentiality and Archives Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies,” (the “Provisions”) and became effective on March 31, 2023. One of the major revisions to the revised Provisions is expanding their application to cover indirect overseas offering and listing, as is consistent with the Trial Measures. The revised Provisions require that, among other things, (i) a domestic company that plans to, either directly or indirectly through its overseas listed entity, publicly disclose or provide to relevant individuals or entities including securities companies, securities service providers and overseas regulators, any documents and materials that contain state secrets or working secrets of government agencies, shall first obtain approval from competent authorities according to law, and file with the secrecy administrative department at the same level; and (ii) a domestic company that plans to, either directly or indirectly through its overseas listed entity, publicly disclose or provide to relevant individuals and entities including securities companies, securities service providers and overseas regulators, any other documents and materials that, if leaked, will be detrimental to national security or public interest, shall strictly fulfill relevant procedures stipulated by applicable national regulations. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, since United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries generated over 50% of each of their revenue, net income, total assets, and net assets from the PRC within the most recent completed fiscal year, the offering and listing of Pubco will be considered a PRC domestic company’s indirect overseas offering and listing under the Trial Measures, and thus United Hydrogen is required to complete filing procedures with the CSRC in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination and listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares. United Hydrogen made the required filings under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures with the CSRC. United Hydrogen has submitted a filing with the CSRC with respect to the Business Combination on August 12, 2024.

 

Table of Contents

The CSRC has been reviewing United Hydrogen’s materials since then, and has required United Hydrogen to provide supplementary materials on several occasions. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, United Hydrogen has submitted all of the supplementary materials required by the CSRC, however, the CSRC has not concluded its review process. Due to the uncertainties surrounding the timing and content of the CSRC’s review, United Hydrogen cannot predict the exact timing and the outcome of obtaining the CSRC filing notice. If United Hydrogen fails to complete the required procedures for the Business Combination and the listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on or prior to the Outside Date as defined in the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms, and the Business Combination may not be consummated. Aimei Health, Pubco and United Hydrogen will not consummate the Business Combination without first completing the CSRC filing and receiving the CSRC approval under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. Consequently, if the Business Combination fails to close due to United Hydrogen’s failure to complete the required filings with the CSRC, investors may face the risk of losing both short-term returns and the anticipated long-term value associated with the combined entity. Further, since the Trial Measures are newly published and the legislation, administration and jurisdiction authorities in China have broad discretion, it may not be easy to fully comprehend the applicable CSRC filing requirements, in addition, the Opinions, the Trial Measures, the revised Provisions, and any related implementing rules thereto may evolve and subject Pubco to additional compliance requirements in the future. There is no assurance that Pubco will be able to complete the filings and fully comply with relevant applicable laws or regulations (including those that may arise from the evolving interpretation of the Opinions, the Trial Measures, or any related implementing rules thereto) on a timely basis, or at all, and Pubco’s securities may decline in value significantly or become worthless as a result. See “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus Summary — License and Approvals Required from the PRC Authorities for Business Operations and Transactions,” “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — The Opinions, the Trial Measures, and the revised Provisions recently issued by the PRC authorities may subject us to additional compliance requirements in the future,” and “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — The filing with the CSRC is required in connection with the Business Combination, and United Hydrogen cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain such approval or complete such filing.

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA Act”), as amended by the “Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023” (the “Consolidated Appropriations Act”) requires the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) is unable to inspect its auditors for three consecutive years beginning in 2022 or two consecutive years beginning in 2023. Pubco’s auditor and United Hydrogen’s auditor are headquartered in Singapore, while Aimei Health’s auditor is headquartered in Texas, and each of them is subject to PCAOB inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of Pubco’s auditor and Pubco’s auditor is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. If trading in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares is prohibited under the HFCA Act in the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, Nasdaq may determine to delist Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and trading in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be prohibited. On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”) governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — Joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to Pubco’s listing on Nasdaq or future offerings of its securities in the U.S.

(“United Hydrogen WFOE”) paid RMB703,761 (equivalent to $98,867.83, calculated based on the USD-RMB Middle Rate of Bank of China (the “BOC Exchange Rate”) as of September 11, 2024, the date of payment of such amount) to Chuanyan Holdings Limited as consideration for the acquisition of ownership interest of Yixun Chuangneng held by Chuanyan Holdings Limited, and RMB310,815 (equivalent to $43,664.83, calculated based on the BOC Exchange Rate as of September 11, 2024, the date of payment of such amount) to Chuanyan Holdings Limited as consideration for the acquisition of ownership interest of

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to keep any future earnings to finance the expansion of its business, and it does not anticipate that any cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. If Pubco determines to pay dividends on any of its Class A or Class B Ordinary Shares in the future, as a holding company, it will be dependent on receipt of funds from United Hydrogen, which is dependent on receipt of funds from Unicorn Hydrated Limited, a BVI company and wholly owned subsidiary of United Hydrogen, which will rely on receipt of funds from United Hydrogen Group Holding Limited, a Hong Kong company and wholly owned subsidiary of Unicorn Hydrated Limited, which will then in turn rely on payments made from Zhejiang United Hydrogen Technology Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Hydrogen Mulan New Energy Technology Co., Ltd and in turn their subsidiaries operating in the PRC. However, as the PRC government imposes control over currency conversion, it has the authority to conduct exchange transfer reviews, which may impose certain limitations on Pubco’s ability to transfer cash between Pubco, its subsidiaries, and its investors, primarily reflected in the following aspects: (i) Pubco is restricted from providing capital or loans to its PRC subsidiaries, which may adversely affect the operations of its PRC subsidiaries; (ii) following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco’s PRC subsidiaries may be restricted from paying dividends to Pubco; and (iii) if Pubco is unable to obtain dividends from its PRC subsidiaries, it may adversely impact its dividends distribution to investors. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — PRC regulation of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may restrict or prevent us from using the proceeds of the Business Combination to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries.” Further, to the extent cash or assets are held in the PRC or by a Chinese entity, they may not be readily available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on Pubco’s ability to transfer cash or assets by the PRC government. There is no assurance that the PRC government will not intervene in or impose restrictions on the ability of Pubco or its subsidiaries to transfer cash or assets. See “Risk Factors — Cash or asset held in the PRC may face restrictions on transfer outside the country due to Chinese government regulations, limiting Pubco’s ability to use these funds for operations, dividend distribution, or capital contributions without complying with Chinese laws, including foreign exchange controls, statutory reserve requirements and taxation.” United Hydrogen has established, and Pubco expects to apply the same, controls and procedures for cash flows within its organization based on internal cash management policies established by its finance department, discussed, considered, and reviewed by the relevant departments in United Hydrogen, and approved by its Chairperson of the Board of Directors. Specifically, United Hydrogen’s finance department supervises cash management, following the instructions of its management. United Hydrogen’s finance department is responsible for establishing its cash operation plan and coordinating cash management matters among its subsidiaries and departments. Each subsidiary and department initiates a cash request by putting forward a cash demand plan, which explains the specific amount and timing of cash requested, and submitting it to United Hydrogen’s finance department. The finance department reviews the cash demand plan and prepares a summary for the management of United Hydrogen. Management examines and approves the allocation of cash based on the sources of cash and the priorities of the needs. Other than the above, United Hydrogen currently do not have other cash management policies or procedures that dictate how funds are transferred.

Pubco is, and will be after the consummation of the Transactions, considered a “foreign private issuer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and therefore exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act, including the proxy rules, which impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations for

 

Table of Contents

U.S. and other issuers. Moreover, Pubco is not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or within the same time frames as U.S. companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act, although it may elect to file certain periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC on a voluntary basis on the forms used by U.S. domestic issuers. Pubco is not required to comply with Regulation FD, which imposes restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information to shareholders. In addition, Pubco’s officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Pubco’s securities. Accordingly, after the Business Combination, if you continue to hold Pubco’s securities, you may receive less or different information about Pubco than you currently receive about Aimei Health.

In addition, as a “foreign private issuer,” Pubco is permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements. A foreign private issuer must disclose in its Annual Reports filed with the SEC each Nasdaq requirement with which it does not comply followed by a description of its applicable home country practice. Pubco currently intends to follow some, but not all, of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. With respect to the corporate governance requirements Pubco does follow, Pubco cannot give assurances that it will continue to follow such corporate governance requirements in the future, and may therefore in the future, rely on available Nasdaq exemptions that would allow Pubco to follow its home country practice. Unlike the requirements of Nasdaq, Pubco is not required, under the corporate governance practice and requirements in the Cayman Islands, to have its board consist of a majority of independent directors, nor is Pubco required to have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors, or to have regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year. Such Cayman Islands home country practices may afford less protection to holders of Ordinary Shares. For additional information regarding the home country practices Pubco intends to follow in lieu of Nasdaq requirements, see the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Management of Pubco Following the Business Combination.”

Pubco would lose its status as a “foreign private issuer” under current SEC rules and regulations if more than 50% of Pubco’s outstanding voting securities become directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. holders and one of the following is true: (i) the majority of Pubco’s directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of Pubco’s assets are located in the United States; or (iii) Pubco’s business is administered principally in the United States. If Pubco loses its status as a foreign private issuer in the future, it will no longer be exempt from the rules described above and, among other things, will be required to file periodic reports and annual and quarterly financial statements as if it were a company incorporated in the United States. If this were to happen, Pubco would likely incur substantial costs in fulfilling these additional regulatory requirements and members of Pubco’s management would likely have to divert time and resources from other responsibilities to ensure these additional regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma will beneficially own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming no redemptions) or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming maximum contractual redemptions). As a result, Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of applicable Nasdaq listing rules. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group, or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (i) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities, and (iii) that its board of directors have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to utilize some of these exemptions. Although Pubco will have a compensation committee and nominating committee, such committees will not be composed entirely of “independent directors.” Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco anticipates that the size of its board of directors will be five (5) directors, three of whom will qualify as independent directors as defined within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq listing rules and will meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements. See “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Controlled Company,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management of Pubco Following the Business Combination — Controlled Company Status.”

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

This proxy statement/prospectus is dated [•], 2025, and is first being mailed to Aimei Health’s security holders on or about [•], 2025.

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON [•], 2025

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd (“Aimei Health”), a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, will be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, on [•], 2025, at the offices of Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC at 950 Third Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10022 and via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date, and at such other place to which the meeting may be adjourned. You are cordially invited to attend the meeting, which will be held for the following purposes:

(i)     to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve, subject to the approval of the Merger Proposal and the Share Issuance Proposal, by ordinary resolution the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2024 (and as may be further amended and/or amended and restated, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Aimei Health, Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company, in its capacity as, from and after the Closing, the representative of Aimei Health and the shareholders of Aimei Health immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Purchaser Representative”), United Hydrogen Global Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“Pubco”), United Hydrogen Victor Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (the “First Merger Sub”), United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (the “Second Merger Sub”), and United Hydrogen Group Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“United Hydrogen”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), (i) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco, and Pubco, First Merger Sub, and United Hydrogen shall cause the First Merger to be consummated by executing a plan of merger (the “First Merger Plan of Merger”); and (ii) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Aimei Health surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco (the Mergers and together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and other ancillary documents, the “Transactions”), and Pubco, Second Merger Sub, and Aimei Health shall cause the Second Merger to be consummated by executing a plan of merger (the “Second Merger Plan of Merger,” and together with the First Merger Plan of Merger, the “Plans of Merger”). Aimei Health refers to this proposal as the “Business Combination Proposal”; the Business Combination Proposal is described in more detail in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus under the heading “The Business Combination Proposal” and a copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A;

(ii)    to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by special resolution, subject to the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Share Issuance Proposal, the Second Merger and Second Merger Plan of Merger and annexes thereto in compliance with the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands and in substantially in the form and substance of Annex D to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and to confirm, ratify, and approve in all respects all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement occurring in connection with the Second Merger. Aimei Health refers to this proposal as the “Merger Proposal.” The Merger proposal is described in more detail in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus under the heading “The Merger Proposal”; for the purposes of the laws of the Cayman Islands, the full text of the special resolution is as follows: RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that, subject to the approval of the Business Combination Proposal: (i) the merger of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd (“Aimei Health”), with and into United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, with Aimei Health surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Hydrogen Global Inc. (the “Second Merger”), and the

 

Table of Contents

plan of merger and annexures thereto substantially in the form and substance of Annex D to the proxy statement (the “Second Merger Plan of Merger”) and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement occurring in connection with the Second Merger, be and are hereby authorized, approved, adopted and confirmed in all respects; (ii) Aimei Health be and is hereby authorized to enter into the Second Merger Plan of Merger; and (iii) as of, and contingent upon, the Effective Time (as that term is defined in the Second Plan of Merger), the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association attached to the Second Plan of Merger be adopted in substitution for, and to the exclusion of Aimei Health’s existing amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

(iii)   to approve by ordinary resolution, for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq listing rules and subject to the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Merger Proposal, the issuance of approximately 157,568,133 newly issued ordinary shares in the Business Combination, and which amount will be determined as described in more detail in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. Aimei Health refers to this proposal as the “Share Issuance Proposal.” See the section entitled “The Share Issuance Proposal”; and

(iv)   to consider and vote upon a proposal by ordinary resolution to direct the chairman of the meeting to adjourn the meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate in the determination of Aimei Health, (i) to permit, among other things, further solicitation and vote of proxies, including if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the meeting, Aimei Health is not authorized to consummate the Business Combination, and (ii) to allow reasonable additional time for filing or mailing of any legally required supplement or amendment to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus or (iii) if the holders of the Public Shares have elected to redeem such number of shares such that the Pubco Ordinary Shares would not be approved for listing on a U.S. stock exchange. Aimei Health refers to this proposal as the “Adjournment Proposal”; the Adjournment Proposal is described in more detail in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus under the heading “The Adjournment Proposal.”

These items of business are described in the attached proxy statement/prospectus, which Aimei Health encourages you to read in its entirety before voting. Only holders of record of Aimei Health ordinary shares at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of the meeting and to vote and have their votes counted at the meeting and any adjournments of the meeting.

Pursuant to the Aimei Health’s amended and restated articles of association, a holder of Aimei Health’s public shares (a “Aimei Health Public Shareholder” or “Public Shareholder”) may request that Aimei Health redeem all or a portion of such public shares for cash in connection with the completion of the Business Combination. Holders of Units must elect to separate the Units into the underlying public shares and rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their Aimei Health Units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the Units into the underlying public shares and rights, or if a holder holds Units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), Aimei Health’s transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number, and address to Continental in order to validly redeem its shares. Aimei Health Public Shareholders may elect to redeem their public shares regardless of whether or not they vote on any of the Proposals and whether they vote “For” or “Against” any of the Proposals. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the public shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker, or bank. If the Business Combination is consummated, and if an Aimei Health Public Shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms (as applicable) to Continental, Aimei Health will redeem such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the pro rata portion of the amount on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to Aimei Health for tax purposes. For illustrative purposes, as of June 30, 2025, this would have amounted to approximately $11.14 per issued and outstanding ordinary share. If an Aimei Health Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares (but will continue to own rights). See the section entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Aimei Health — Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

 

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Aimei Health Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such Aimei Health Public Shareholder or any other person with whom such Aimei Health Public Shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if an Aimei Health Public Shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

In addition, in no event will Aimei Health redeem public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001 after taking into account holders that have properly demanded redemption of their Public Shares, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, into cash and the proceeds of any private placement.

The Sponsor holds an aggregate of 1,905,000 Aimei Health ordinary shares as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The Sponsor has invested an aggregate of $3,345,000 in Aimei Health in connection with the IPO of Aimei Health, comprised of (i) $25,000 for 1,725,000 Founder Shares (approximately $0.014 per share), of which 152,000 Founder Shares were transferred to the then officers and directors of Aimei Health on May 25, 2023, and (ii) $3,320,000 for 332,000 Private Placement Units, which consist of 332,000 Private Shares and 332,000 Private Rights. Each Private Right grants the holder thereof the right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share of Aimei Health upon the consummation of an initial business combination. See “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Aimei Health Initial Shareholders — Founder Shares,” “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Aimei Health Initial Shareholders — Private Placement Units,” and “The Business Combination Proposal — Background of the Business Combination.” The Sponsor may realize a positive rate of return so long as the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares is at least $[1.76] per share, even if Aimei Health public shareholders experience a negative rate of return following the Business Combination. The Sponsor, its affiliates and promoters are not receiving compensation or any additional securities of Aimei Health or Pubco in connection with the Business Combination, except for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares expected to be received based on the share exchange provision stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement and based upon the conversion of the Private Rights. Upon the completion of the Business Combination, the Sponsor is expected to hold a total of 1,971,400 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares (including 66,400 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Private Rights), representing approximately 1.25% of the equity interests in the combined company upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

The Initial Shareholders of Aimei Health, including the Sponsor and its directors and officers, have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares, and any Public Shares they may hold in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. The Initial Shareholders received no additional consideration in exchange for the agreement to waive their redemption rights. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Initial Shareholders collectively own an aggregate of 33.6% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health. The Sponsor and the directors and officers of Aimei Health have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders vote.

Aimei Health is providing the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to Aimei Health Shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting and at any adjournments of the Extraordinary General Meeting. Information about the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Business Combination, and other related business to be considered by Aimei Health Shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. Whether or not you plan to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, all of Aimei Health Shareholders should read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 49 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the Aimei Health board of directors has unanimously determined that (i) the Business Combination Proposal, (ii) the Merger Proposal, (iii) the Share Issuance Proposal, and (iv) the Adjournment Proposal are fair to and in the best interests of Aimei Health and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Share Issuance Proposal, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if presented.

 

Table of Contents

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. The approval of the Second Plan of Merger is a requirement under the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Companies Act”). If the Business Combination Proposal, including the Second Plan of Merger, is not approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health, the Business Combination will not be consummated.

Additionally, the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Merger Proposal and the Share Issuance Proposal. If the shareholders of Aimei Health do not approve the Merger Proposal or the Share Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination may not be consummated.

The Share Issuance Proposal is conditioned on the approval and adoption of each of the Business Combination Proposal and the Merger Proposal. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned on the approval of any other Proposal.

The approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Share Issuance Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. The approval of the Merger requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. The Business Combination is not structured to require the approval of at least a majority of unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health.

The holders of the Founder Shares (as defined below) and Private Shares (as defined below), including Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Such holders have also indicated that they intend to vote their shares in favor of all other proposals being presented at the Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 1,725,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding, which constitute approximately 28.2% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health. Additionally, an aggregate of 332,000 ordinary shares (the “Private Shares”) underlying the Private Placement Units (as defined below) were issued to Aimei Investment Ltd in connection with a private placement that closed simultaneously with the initial public offering of Aimei Health (the “Initial Public Offering”). The Private Shares constitute approximately 5.4% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health as of the Record Date. The Founder Shares and Private Shares in the aggregate represent approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health as of the Record Date.

All Aimei Health shareholders are cordially invited to attend the meeting. To ensure your representation at the meeting, however, you are urged to complete, sign, date, and return the enclosed proxy card as soon as possible. Your proxy card must be received by Aimei Health not less than 48 hours before the scheduled time of the meeting or any adjournment thereof at which the person named in the proxy card proposes to vote. Proxy cards received after this time will not be counted. If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must instruct your broker or bank on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the meeting and vote yourself, obtain a proxy from your broker or bank. If you do not vote or do not instruct your broker or bank how to vote, it will have no effect on any of the Proposals.

As an Aimei Health shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote at the meeting, you are entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote on your behalf, and such proxyholder(s) need not hold shares in Aimei Health.

A complete list of Aimei Health shareholders of record entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be available for 10 days before the meeting at the principal executive offices of Aimei Health for inspection by shareholders during ordinary business hours for any purpose germane to the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Your vote is important regardless of the number of shares you own. Whether you plan to attend the meeting or not, please sign, date, and return the enclosed proxy card as soon as possible in the envelope provided. Your proxy card must be received by Aimei Health not less than 48 hours before the scheduled time of the meeting or any adjournment thereof at which the person named in the proxy card proposes to vote. Proxy cards received after this time will not be counted. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted.

SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL TERMS OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

This section describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A and incorporated by reference herein. Aimei Health’s shareholders, rights holders, and other interested parties are urged to read the Business Combination Agreement in its entirety. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used below have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

Aimei Health is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 27, 2023, for the purpose of effecting a merger, share reconstruction or amalgamation, asset or share acquisition, exchangeable share transaction, contractual control arrangement or other similar business combination with one or more businesses. On December 6, 2023, Aimei Health consummated its IPO. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, neither Aimei Health, nor anyone acting on its behalf, contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with Aimei Health. Since the completion of the IPO, Aimei Health considered numerous potential target businesses with the objective of consummating its initial business combination. Aimei Health reviewed and evaluated the potential targets based on its investment criteria and guidelines.

During this search process, Aimei Health reviewed three potential business combination opportunities. These potential targets were in the medical or healthcare industries. Aimei Health ultimately determined not to proceed with any of them. On March 12, 2024, Chain Stone Capital Limited, the financial advisor for United Hydrogen, introduced United Hydrogen to Aimei Health. Seeking a potential business combination, United Hydrogen expressed interest in exploring a transaction with Aimei Health.

Although Aimei Health believes the business combination with United Hydrogen is attractive and in the best interests of Aimei Health’s shareholders, Aimei Health Board did consider the risks that may lead to certain potential negative impacts including general economic conditions, decrease of attention of hydrogen energy in different countries, unreachable revenue or profit expectations, potential safety accident, market acceptance by end users, development of alternative green energy sources, changing customer demands, dependence on key person, United Hydrogen’s capability to obtain continues financing and United Hydrogen’s compliance with governmental and other regulations.

United Hydrogen’s decision to engage in a de-SPAC transaction was driven by several strategic considerations. From the outset, United Hydrogen aimed to secure additional funding and increase its international exposure, especially in key markets like the United States. To achieve this, listing on a major exchange like Nasdaq became a primary objective. United Hydrogen’s management, along with its financial advisor, conducted a thorough analysis of various potential listing pathways, which included a comprehensive review of traditional IPOs as compared to de-SPAC mergers, with a focus on factors such as feasibility, cost, valuation and comparable companies.

Several critical analyses were performed to inform the decision-making process. A listing path analysis identified the pros and cons of each option, while a feasibility study ensured the viability of a Nasdaq listing given United Hydrogen’s financial and operational readiness. The cost budget was carefully examined, especially given the fluctuating costs associated with IPOs and market conditions. Additionally, a valuation analysis and comparisons with similar companies provided insights into how United Hydrogen could be valued in the public market and the expectations of potential investors.

After multiple discussions and evaluations, United Hydrogen’s management concluded that the current capital market environment, the cost implications, and the company’s need for a swift and efficient listing made a de-SPAC merger the optimal route. Unlike a traditional IPO, which can be time-consuming and expensive, the de-SPAC route is expected to offer a more streamlined and cost-effective process with greater certainty around valuation and timing.

Through the introduction of its financial advisor, United Hydrogen began discussions with Aimei Health, a potential SPAC partner. These discussions explored the business synergies between the two companies, ultimately leading to a mutual understanding. After careful consideration, Aimei Health emerged as the most suitable partner to facilitate United Hydrogen’s public listing through the de-SPAC transaction. On April 18, 2024, Aimei Health and United Hydrogen entered into a non-disclosure agreement, allowing Aimei Health to receive and evaluate detailed information about United Hydrogen. From April 23, 2024 to April 26, 2024, several emails and conference calls occurred between the management teams of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. They discussed commercial and capital-raising plans,

the prospects of a business combination, and the terms of a letter of intent (the “LOI”). On April 26, 2024, Aimei Health submitted a draft LOI to United Hydrogen for review. Thereafter, a series of emails and conference calls took place, leading to the execution of the LOI on April 29, 2024. The LOI provided an exclusivity period commencing from its execution and ending 30 days thereafter, during which neither party shall enter into any discussions, negotiations, or agreements, or make any filing with governmental authority, that would reasonably be expected to prohibit or materially impair the transaction proposed under the LOI. The LOI outlines several material terms regarding the proposed business combination, including:

(i)     The structure of the deal will be finalized based on the parties’ due diligence findings and other considerations.

(ii)    The total value of the business combination is based on a pre-money equity valuation of $1.5 billion, with consideration to be paid in shares of common stock of the surviving company, each valued at $10 per share.

(iii)   Major shareholders of United Hydrogen will be subject to a six-month lock-up period for their shares following the closing.

(iv)   The surviving company will have a dual-class structure, with Class A shares having one (1) vote per share and Class B shares having ten (10) votes per share. Class B shares will be held by the key management of United Hydrogen.

(v)    The initial board of the surviving company will have five (5) directors, all appointed by United Hydrogen prior to the closing, three of whom must be independent.

Following the LOI execution, Aimei Health conducted additional due diligence and reviewed United Hydrogen’s materials. A series of internal and joint conference calls were held to clarify business model, strategy, technology, and intellectual property issues. On May 23, 2024, Aimei Health’s legal counsel provided a draft Business Combination Agreement to United Hydrogen for review. Since then, a series of discussions between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen regarding the terms of the Business Combination Agreement took place and ongoing revisions to the Business Combination Agreement were made by Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, and their respective counsels. On June 19, 2024, the Business Combination Agreement was signed by all parties thereto, with the signing publicly announced on June 20, 2024.

The parties to the Business Combination Agreement are Aimei Health, the Purchaser Representative, Pubco, the First Merger Sub, the Second Merger Sub, and United Hydrogen. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, at the Closing, (i) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen, with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (ii) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health, with Aimei Health surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco.

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the Aggregate Merger Consideration Amount to be paid to the shareholders of United Hydrogen is $1,500,000,000 and will be paid entirely in shares, comprised of newly issued Ordinary Shares of Pubco, with each share valued at the Per Share Price.

As a result of the Mergers, among other things, (i) each of the ordinary shares of United Hydrogen (except for the United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares and the United Hydrogen Dissenting Shares) that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) each United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the number of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio; (iii) each convertible note of United Hydrogen that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be converted into such number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen pursuant to the terms thereof, which resulting shares will be converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares based on the Exchange

See “Description of Pubco Securities.” Michael&Jason Limited will beneficially own all of the issued Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination. The newly issued Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to be received by Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders and affiliates in connection with Transactions will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

If the board of directors of Aimei Health so determines, the shareholders may also be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to direct the chairman of the Meeting to adjourn the Meeting to a later date or dates to, among other things, permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Meeting, Aimei Health would not have been authorized to consummate the Business Combination.

Q:     Why is Aimei Health proposing the Business Combination?

A:     Aimei Health was incorporated to effect a merger, share reconstruction or amalgamation, asset or share acquisition, exchangeable share transaction, contractual control arrangement or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

Aimei Health completed its IPO on December 6, 2023, with each Public Unit consisting of one ordinary share and one Public Right, each entitling the holder thereof to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of Aimei Health upon Aimei Health’s completion of its initial business combination. The sale of the Public Units, which raised total gross proceeds of $69,000,000, as well as a private placement of Private Placement Units on December 6, 2023, which raised total gross proceeds of $3,320,000, totaling $72,320,000 in gross proceeds. Since the IPO, Aimei Health’s activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates.

Aimei Health management analyzed investment opportunities in various sectors and geographic regions in an effort to locate the best potential business combination opportunity for its shareholders.

United Hydrogen is a hydrogen solution provider committed to providing customers with decarbonization solutions tailored to their energy decarbonization goals. Driven by the mission of “Living in Harmony with Nature,” United Hydrogen operates its business in China through its subsidiaries, including without limitation, Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng. Currently, United Hydrogen, through its subsidiaries, has been in the business of providing (i) hydrogen energy solutions, specializing in the evaluation, design, and construction (through third-party construction contractors) of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, and post-delivery operation and management of these facilities, and (ii) hydrogen commercial applications, focusing on selling fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts, and designing, selling and leasing fuel cell forklifts.

Aimei Health believes that a business combination with United Hydrogen will provide Aimei Health shareholders with an opportunity to participate in a company with significant growth potential. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Reasons for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Approval of the Business Combination.”

Q:     Why is Aimei Health providing shareholders with the opportunity to vote on the Business Combination?

A:     Under its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, Aimei Health must provide all holders of its Public Shares with the opportunity to have their Public Shares redeemed upon the consummation of Aimei Health’s initial business combination either in conjunction with a tender offer or in conjunction with a shareholder vote. For business and other reasons, Aimei Health has elected to provide its shareholders with the opportunity to have their Public Shares redeemed in connection with a shareholder vote rather than a tender offer. Therefore, Aimei Health is seeking to obtain the approval of its shareholders of the Business Combination Proposal in order to allow its Public Shareholders to effectuate Redemptions of their Public Shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination.

14

Table of Contents

Q:     Are the proposals conditioned on one another?

A:     Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Merger Proposal, and the Share Issuance Proposal are conditioned upon each other. If the shareholders of Aimei Health do not approve any of the Business Combination Proposal, the Merger Proposal, or the Share Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination may not be consummated. Unless the Business Combination Proposal and the Merger Proposal are approved, the Share Issuance Proposal will not be presented to the shareholders of Aimei Health at the Meeting. In addition, the Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.

If Aimei Health does not consummate the Business Combination and fails to complete an initial business combination by December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by Aimei Health’s shareholders in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association), then Aimei Health will be required to dissolve and liquidate its Trust Account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to its Public Shareholders.

Q:     What will happen in the Business Combination?

A:     At the Closing, (a) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen, with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (b) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health, with Aimei Health surviving the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of the Pubco (the Mergers together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and other ancillary documents, the “Transactions”). In particular, (i) each Aimei Health ordinary share shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share, and (ii) each issued and outstanding Aimei Health rights shall be cancelled and automatically converted into one-fifth of one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share. The cash held in the Trust Account and the proceeds from any financing transactions in connection with the Business Combination will be used by Pubco for working capital and general corporate purposes following the consummation of the Business Combination. A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A. For Pubco’s organizational structure chart upon consummation of the Business Combination, please see “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Organizational Structures.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to me?

A:     It is intended that the Second Merger qualifies as an exchange described in Section 351(a) of the Code and/or as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code. Assuming such qualification, a U.S. holder that receives Class A Ordinary Shares in exchange for ordinary shares of Aimei Health in the Second Merger generally should not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange. In such case, the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Second Merger by a U.S. holder should be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health exchanged therefor. The holding period of the Class A Ordinary Shares should include the holding period during which the ordinary shares of Aimei Health exchanged therefor were held by such U.S. holder.

Even if the Business Combination otherwise qualifies as an exchange described in Section 351(a) of the Code and/or as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, U.S. holders may be required to recognize gain (but not loss) on account of the application of the Passive Foreign Investment Company rules, as described in more detail under “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities — Application of the Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules to the Business Combination.

For additional discussion of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Business Combination, see the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities.”

Q:     What conditions must be satisfied or waived to complete the Business Combination?

A:     There are a number of closing conditions to the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the representations and warranties of each of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen being true and correct on and as of the Closing (subject to certain materiality standards set forth in the Business Combination Agreement);

15

Table of Contents

(ii) each of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen having performed in all material respects its obligations and complied in all material respects with its covenants and agreements under the Business Combination Agreement required to be performed or complied with by it on or prior the date of the Closing; (iii) the absence of any effect, development, circumstance, fact, change or event since the date of the Business Combination Agreement that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or materially impair the ability of Aimei Health and/or United Hydrogen to consummate the Transactions or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Transactions; (iv) receipt by United Hydrogen and the Pubco of the Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement; (v) receipt by Aimei Health of the Seller Lock-Up Agreement entered into by and among the Pubco, United Hydrogen, Aimei Health, and certain United Hydrogen shareholders being in full force and effect as of the Closing; (vi) receipt by Sellers from Pubco of a registration rights agreement covering the merger consideration shares received by certain Sellers duly executed by the Pubco; (vii) completion of the Reorganization pursuant to the Reorganization Documents by the Completion Date; and (viii) United Hydrogen’s timely payments for any Extension pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

For a summary of all of the conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to completion of the Business Combination, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement.”

Q:    Did the Aimei Health board of directors obtain a fairness opinion in determining whether to proceed with the Business Combination?

A:    Yes. The Aimei Health board of directors received the fairness opinion from CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Ltd. (“CHFT”), as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to United Hydrogen, of the consideration to be paid by Aimei Health (in the form of Pubco Ordinary Shares) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement. For additional information, please see the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis of CHFT.” and the opinion of CHFT attached hereto as Annex F.

Q:     What equity stake will current Public Shareholders, the Sponsor, the Initial Shareholders and the Sellers and their affiliates hold in Pubco immediately after the completion of the Business Combination?

A:     Upon the completion of the Business Combination, assuming, among other things, that except for 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health were redeemed in February 2025, no Public Shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares upon completion of the Business Combination (assuming automatic conversion of rights into ordinary shares), the Public Shareholders, the Sponsor and the other Initial Shareholders, and the Sellers will own approximately 2.53%, 1.30%, and 95.20% of the outstanding shares of Pubco, respectively, such percentages have been calculated assuming that the Sellers receive approximately 150,000,000 Ordinary Shares of Pubco.

If any of the Public Shareholders exercise their redemption rights, the percentage of the Pubco’s outstanding Ordinary Shares held by the Public Shareholders will decrease and the percentages of Pubco’s outstanding Ordinary Shares held by the by the Sellers and their affiliates will increase, in each case relative to the percentage held if none of the Public Shares are redeemed.

The following table illustrates varying beneficial ownership levels in Pubco, based on the assumption of (i) no redemptions, (ii) redemption of 50% of the Public Shares, and (iii) maximum contractual redemptions that may occur and would allow Aimei Health to have standalone and consolidated net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001, by Public Shareholders. If the actual facts are different from the foregoing assumptions, the share amounts and percentage ownership numbers set forth below will be different.

(1)      On February 6, 2025, 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health were redeemed. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there were 3,995,733 Public Shares of Aimei Health remaining.

(2)      Assumes that in addition to 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health were redeemed in February 2025, an additional 3,724,216 Public Shares of Aimei Health are redeemed from the proceeds available in the Trust Account. The maximum contractual redemptions scenario represents the maximum contractual redemptions that may occur, which would still allow Aimei Health to have standalone and consolidated net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001.

Q:     What are the effective underwriting fees under the various redemption scenarios?

A:     Spartan Capital Securities, LLC (“Spartan”), the representative of the underwriters in the IPO, is entitled to deferred underwriting commissions upon the closing of the Business Combination of 1% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $690,000, which amount is not subject to change, regardless of the number of Public Shares redeemed. The following table illustrates the effective deferred underwriting commissions on a percentage basis for outstanding Public Shares allocable to the Public Shareholders at each assumed redemption scenario:

Q:     What vote is required to approve the proposals presented at the Meeting?

A:     The approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Share Issuance Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal (the “Ordinary Resolution Proposals”) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. Assuming a quorum exists, a shareholder’s failure to vote by proxy or in person at the Meeting will have no effect on the affirmative vote required to adopt the foregoing proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the affirmative vote required to adopt any of the proposals. As of [•], 2025, the record date for the Meeting (the “Record Date”), there were 1,725,000 Founder Shares and 332,000 Private Shares issued and outstanding, which constitute approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health. As of the Record Date, the affirmative vote of [•] of the ordinary shares owned by the Public Shareholders is required to approve the Ordinary Resolution Proposals, assuming that the number of ordinary shares present in person or by proxy at the Meeting equals the quorum requirement of [•] ordinary shares, and all such [•] ordinary shares are voted on each Ordinary Resolution Proposal at the Meeting.

17

Table of Contents

The approval of the Merger Proposal will require a special resolution, being a resolution passed at the Meeting by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by holders of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the affirmative vote required to adopt the Merger Proposal. The holders of the Founder Shares and Private Shares have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Merger Proposal. Such holders have also indicated that they intend to vote their shares in favor of all other proposals being presented at the Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 1,725,000 Founder Shares and 332,000 Private Shares issued and outstanding, which constitute approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health. As of the Record Date, the affirmative vote of [•] ordinary shares owned by the Public Shareholders or approximately [•]% of the ordinary shares owned by the Public Shareholders, are required to approve the Merger Proposal, assuming that the number of ordinary shares present in person or by proxy at the Meeting equals the quorum requirement of [•] ordinary shares, and all such [•] ordinary shares are voted on the Merger Proposal at the Meeting.

Q:     What constitutes a quorum at the Meeting?

A:     For a quorum to exist, no less than a majority in voting power of Aimei Health’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting are required to be present in person or by proxy. In the absence of a quorum within 15 minutes of the time appointed for the Meeting, the Meeting will stand adjourned to the same time and place seven days hence, or to such other time or place as is determined by the directors. As of the Record Date, [•] ordinary shares of Aimei Health would be required to achieve a quorum. Considering the Initial Shareholders hold an aggregate of 2,057,000 ordinary shares, which constitute approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health, Public Shareholders holding at least [•] ordinary shares, or approximately [•]% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health, will be required to be present at the Meeting in order to constitute a quorum.

Q:     How do the insiders of Aimei Health intend to vote on the proposals?

A:     Aimei Health’s holders of Founder Shares and Private Shares beneficially own and are entitled to vote an aggregate of approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health. The holders of Founder Shares and Private Shares have agreed to vote their securities in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and have also indicated that they intend to vote their shares in favor of all other proposals being presented at the Meeting.

Q:     Do I have Redemption rights?

A:     Pursuant to Aimei Health’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, holders of Public Shares may elect to have their shares redeemed for cash at the applicable Redemption price per share calculated in accordance with Aimei Health’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. As of [•], 2025, the Record Date, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $[•] million, this would have amounted to approximately $[•] per share. If a holder exercises its Redemption rights, then such holder will be exchanging its ordinary shares of Aimei Health for cash. Such a holder will be entitled to receive cash for its Public Shares only if it properly demands Redemption and delivers its shares (either physically or electronically) to Aimei Health’s transfer agent prior to the Meeting.

Q:     Will how I vote affect my ability to exercise Redemption rights?

A:     No. You may exercise your Redemption rights whether or not you are a holder of Aimei Health ordinary shares on the Record Date (so long as you are a holder at the time of exercise), or whether or not you are a holder and vote your ordinary shares of Aimei Health on the Business Combination Proposal (for or against) or any other proposal described by this proxy statement/prospectus. As a result, the Business Combination Agreement can be approved by shareholders who will redeem their shares and no longer remain shareholders, leaving shareholders who choose not to redeem their shares holding shares in a company with a potentially less liquid trading market, fewer shareholders, potentially less cash and the potential inability to meet the listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market.

Table of Contents

Q:     How do I exercise my Redemption rights?

A:     If you are a holder of Public Shares and wish to exercise your Redemption rights, you must demand that Aimei Health convert your shares into cash no later than [    ] p.m. Eastern Time on [•], 2025 (two (2) business days prior to the vote on the Business Combination Proposal) by (i) submitting your request in writing to Continental at the address listed at the end of this section and (ii) delivering your share certificate to Aimei Health’s transfer agent physically or electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) System. If you hold the shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Certificates that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system.

Any holder of Public Shares (whether or not they are a holder on the Record Date) will be entitled to demand that his, her, or its shares be redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account. As of the Record Date, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $[•] million, this would have amounted to approximately $[•] per share. Such amount, less any owed but unpaid taxes on the funds in the Trust Account, will be paid promptly upon consummation of the Business Combination. There are currently no owed but unpaid income taxes on the funds in the Trust Account. Your vote on any proposal will have no impact on the amount you will receive upon exercise of your Redemption rights.

Any request for Redemption, once made by a holder of Public Shares, may be withdrawn at any time up to the time the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination Proposal at the Meeting. If you deliver your shares for Redemption to Aimei Health’s transfer agent and later decide prior to the Meeting not to elect redemption, you may request that Aimei Health’s transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting Aimei Health’s transfer agent at the phone number or address listed herein.

Any corrected or changed proxy card or written demand of Redemption rights must be received by Aimei Health prior to the vote taken on the Business Combination Proposal at the Meeting. No demand for Redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to Aimei Health’s transfer agent at least two (2) business days prior to the vote at the Meeting.

If a holder of Public Shares properly makes a demand for Redemption as described above, then, if the Business Combination is consummated, Aimei Health will convert these shares into a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account. If you exercise your Redemption rights, then you will be exchanging your ordinary shares of Aimei Health for cash and will not be entitled to Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares with respect to your ordinary shares of Aimei Health upon consummation of the Business Combination. If the Business Combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then holders of Public Shares who elected to exercise their Redemption rights would not be entitled to convert their shares for the applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. In such case, Aimei Health will promptly return any shares delivered by Public Shareholders and such holders may only share in the assets of the Trust Account upon the liquidation of Aimei Health. This may result in holders receiving less than they would have received if the Business Combination was completed and they exercised Redemption rights in connection therewith due to potential claims of creditors against the Trust Account.

If you are a holder of Public Shares and you exercise your Redemption rights, it will not result in the loss of any Aimei Health rights that you may hold. Your Public Rights will automatically be converted into one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share of Aimei Health upon the consummation of the Business Combination. If holders redeem their Public Shares at Closing but continue to hold Public Rights after the Closing, the aggregate value of the Public Rights that may be retained by them, based on the closing trading price Public Right as of the Record Date, would be $[•] million regardless of the amount of redemptions by the Public Shareholders.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

A:     Holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares who exercise their redemption rights to receive cash will be considered for U.S. federal income tax purposes to have made a sale or exchange of the tendered shares, or will be considered for U.S. federal income tax purposes to have received a distribution with respect to such shares that may be treated as: (i) dividend income, (ii) a non-taxable recovery of basis in their investment in the tendered shares,

19

Table of Contents

or (iii) gain (but not loss) as if the shares with respect to which the distribution was made had been sold. See the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities.”

Q:     If I am a Unit holder, can I exercise Redemption rights with respect to my Units?

A:     Holders of outstanding Public Units must separate the underlying ordinary share and Public Rights prior to exercising Redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares.

If you hold Units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such Units to Continental, Aimei Health’s transfer agent, with written instructions to separate such Units into Public Shares and Public Rights. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the Public Share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your Redemption rights upon the separation of the Public Shares from the Units. See “How do I exercise my Redemption rights?” above. The address of Continental is listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee holds your Public Units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your Public Units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to Continental, Aimei Health’s transfer agent. Such written instructions must include the number of Public Units to be split and the nominee holding such Public Units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant Public Units and a deposit of an equal number of Public Shares and Public Rights. As detailed in the following sentence, this must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your Redemption rights upon the separation of the Public Shares from the Public Units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your Public Shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your Redemption rights.

Q:     Do I have appraisal rights if I object to the proposed Business Combination?

A:     Under the Cayman Companies Act, a member of a constituent company incorporated under the Cayman Companies Act shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of that person’s shares upon dissenting from a merger or consolidation. However, no dissenter rights will be available in respect of the shares of any class for which an open market exists on a recognized stock exchange or recognized interdealer quotation system at the expiry date of the period allowed for written notice of an election to dissent under the Cayman Companies Act, but this shall not apply if the holders thereof are required by the terms of a plan of merger or consolidation pursuant to the relevant sections of the Cayman Companies Act to accept for such shares anything except (i) shares of a surviving or consolidated company, or depository receipts in respect thereof, (ii) shares of any other company, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation, are either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on a recognized interdealer quotation system or held of record by more than two thousand holders, (iii) cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in paragraphs (i) and (ii), or (iv) any combination of the shares, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii).

Aimei Health Public Shareholders may have appraisal rights in connection with the Second Merger, on the basis that Aimei Health Public Shareholders will, pursuant to the Second Merger Plan of Merger and upon the Second Merger, have the right to receive Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in exchange for the securities held in Aimei Health, and such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be listed on an exchange that falls within the definition of (ii) above.

Q:     What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after the consummation of the Business Combination?

A:     Of the net proceeds of Aimei Health’s IPO and simultaneous private placements, a total of $69,690,000 was placed in the Trust Account immediately following the IPO. As of the Record Date, the amount held in the Trust Account was approximately $[•] million. After the consummation of the Business Combination, the funds in the Trust Account will be used by Aimei Health to pay holders of the Public Shares who exercise Redemption

Table of Contents

rights, to pay the Deferred Underwriting Commission of $690,000, any unpaid Extension Fees payable by United Hydrogen pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, any unpaid fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination by United Hydrogen, and to make the premium payment for the D&O tail insurance and the premium payment for the directors and officers of Pubco for one year after the Closing. Any remaining funds will be paid to United Hydrogen (or as otherwise designated in writing by United Hydrogen to Aimei Health prior to the Closing) and used for working capital and general corporate purposes of Pubco and its subsidiaries.

Q:     What happens if a substantial number of Public Shareholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their Redemption rights?

A:     Unlike some other blank check companies which require Public Shareholders to vote against a business combination in order to exercise their redemption rights, Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders may vote in favor of the Business Combination and exercise their Redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shareholders are substantially reduced as a result of Redemption by Public Shareholders. However, the Business Combination will not be consummated if, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Aimei Health does not have at least $5,000,001 in net tangible assets after giving effect to payment of amounts that Aimei Health will be required to pay to redeeming shareholders upon consummation of the Business Combination and the proceeds from any private placement investment.

With fewer public shares and public shareholders, the trading market for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares may be less liquid than the market for Aimei Health’s ordinary shares was prior to the closing of the Business Combination, and Pubco may not be able to meet the listing standards for Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. In addition, with less funds available from the Trust Account, the working capital infusion from the Trust Account into United Hydrogen’s business will be reduced.

Q:     What happens to the ownership and voting control of the combined company after the Business Combination and what is the effect on the voting power of Public Shareholders under the combined company’s new dual-class structure?

A:     The dual-class structure of Pubco Ordinary Shares has the effect of concentrating voting control in Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and ultimate controlling shareholder, because following the consummation of the Business Combination, she will beneficially own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming no redemptions) or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming maximum contractual redemptions). This presents certain risks since her interests may not be aligned with the interests of Pubco’s other shareholders in all circumstances.

Pubco has a dual-class voting structure, consisting of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Under this structure, holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to ten (10) votes per share. This unbalanced and disparate allocation of voting power, will cause Ms. Ma, as the sole beneficial owner of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, to have a disparately higher concentration of voting power, representing approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result of the disparate voting power of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Ms. Ma, she will possess the ability to control Pubco’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, the election of directors, and other significant corporate actions.

Ms. Ma, in her capacity as the ultimate controlling shareholder of Pubco, may take actions that are not in the best interests of Pubco or its other shareholders. These corporate actions may be taken even if they are opposed by Pubco’s other shareholders. Further, such concentration of voting power may discourage, prevent, or delay the consummation of transactions that shareholders may consider favorable, including ones in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. Future issuances of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares may also be dilutive to the holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.

21

Table of Contents

Q:     What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?

A:     Under its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, Aimei Health has a period of 12 months from the completion of its IPO to complete its initial business combination. In addition, the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that the Sponsor and Aimei Health’s board of directors may extend the date by which Aimei Health must complete its initial business combination by a total of 12 months. Specifically, Aimei Health may, by resolution of its board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to 12 times, each by an additional one month, subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account with a monthly extension fee of $227,700 (or $0.033 per Public Share). Accordingly, if Aimei Health does not complete the Business Combination with United Hydrogen or another business combination by December 6, 2025 (if extended to the maximum 24 months following closing of the IPO or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association), Aimei Health must: (i) redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to an amount then held in the Trust Account, which was approximately $[•] million as of the Record Date, (ii) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, and (iii) subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, dissolve and liquidate. In such event, Aimei Health’s Rights will expire worthless, and the 1,725,000 Founder Shares and 332,000 shares underlying the Private Placement Units would also be worthless. For more information about the liquidation process, see “Other Information Related to Aimei Health — Summary Information Related to Our Securities, Redemption Rights, and Liquidation.

Q:     When do you expect the Business Combination to be completed?

A:     It is currently anticipated that the Business Combination will be consummated promptly following the Meeting, which is set for [•], 2025; however, the Meeting could be adjourned, as described above. For a description of the conditions for the completion of the Business Combination, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement — Conditions to Closing.”

Q:     What do I need to do now?

A:     Aimei Health urges you to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes, and to consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a shareholder of Aimei Health. Shareholders should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card.

Q:     How do I vote?

A:     If you are a holder of record of ordinary shares of Aimei Health on the Record Date, you may vote in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting or by submitting your proxy by completing, signing, dating, and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying pre-addressed postage paid envelope. Your proxy card must be received by Aimei Health not less than 48 hours before the scheduled time of the meeting or any adjournment thereof at which the person named in the proxy card proposes to vote. Proxy cards received after this time will not be counted.

You Can Vote by Internet.    Shareholders who have received a copy of the proxy card by mail may be able to vote over the Internet by visiting https://www.cstproxyvote.com and entering the voter control number included on your proxy card. You may vote by Internet until the polls are closed on the date of the Meeting.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the broker, bank or nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Meeting and vote, obtain a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

In addition, you may attend the meeting and vote your shares using the voter control number included on your proxy card.

Q:   If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

A:     As disclosed in this proxy statement/prospectus, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares on the Proposals unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or nominee. However, broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on any of the proposals.

Q:     May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card?

A:     Yes. Shareholders may (i) enter a new vote by Internet, or (ii) send a later dated, signed proxy card to Aimei Health at the address set forth below so that it is received by Aimei Health not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the person named in the form of appointment of proxy proposes to vote. Shareholders also may revoke their proxy by sending a notice of revocation to Aimei Health at 10 East 53rd Street, Suite 3001, New York, NY 10022, which notice must be received by Aimei Health’s Chief Executive Officer prior to the vote at the Meeting.

Q:     What happens if I fail to take any action with respect to the Meeting?

A:     If you fail to take any action with respect to the Meeting and the Business Combination is approved by shareholders and consummated, you will become a shareholder of Pubco. If you fail to take any action with respect to the Meeting and the Business Combination is not approved, you will continue to be a shareholder holder of Aimei Health.

Q:     What should I do with my share certificates?

A:     After the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco’s transfer agent will send instructions to Aimei Health security holders regarding the exchange of their Aimei Health securities for Pubco securities. Aimei Health shareholders who exercise their Redemption rights must deliver their share certificates to Aimei Health’s transfer agent (either physically or electronically) at least two (2) business days prior to the Meeting.

Q:     What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A:     Shareholders may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement/prospectus and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your Aimei Health shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your Aimei Health shares.

The Parties

Aimei Health

Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd, which is referred to as Aimei Health, is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on April 27, 2023. Aimei Health was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On December 6, 2023, Aimei Health consummated its IPO of 6,900,000 Public Units, including the underwriters’ full exercise of its over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, Aimei Health consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 332,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $3,320,000.

        The approval of the Adjournment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to Aimei Health’s memorandum and articles of association, a holder of Public Shares may demand that Aimei Health convert such shares into cash if the Business Combination is consummated. Holders of Public Shares (whether or not they are holders on the Record Date) will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if they demand that Aimei Health convert their shares into cash no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on [•], 2025 (two business days prior to the Meeting) by (i) submitting their request in writing to Continental and (ii) delivering their stock to Aimei Health’s transfer agent physically or electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) System. If the Business Combination is not completed, these shares will not be redeemed for cash at this time in connection with the Business Combination. In such case, Aimei Health will promptly return any shares delivered by public holders for Redemption and such holders may only share in the assets of the Trust Account upon the liquidation of Aimei Health. This may result in holders receiving less than they would have received if the Business Combination was completed and they had exercised their Redemption rights in connection therewith due to potential claims of creditors of Aimei Health. If a holder of Public Shares properly demands Redemption, Aimei Health will redeem each Public Share for its pro rata portion of the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the Business Combination. As of [    ], 2025, the Record Date, this would amount to approximately $[•] per share. If a holder of Public Shares exercises its Redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its ordinary shares of Aimei Health for cash and will no longer own the shares. See the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Aimei Health — Redemption Rights” for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your shares for cash.

The Business Combination will not be consummated if Aimei Health has net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 after taking into account holders that have properly demanded Redemption of their Public Shares, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, into cash and the proceeds of any private placement.

Holders of Aimei Health rights do not have Redemption rights with respect to such securities.

Appraisal Rights

Aimei Health’s board of directors considers that the Aimei Health ordinary shares (including those held by the Initial Shareholders) and other Aimei Health securities may entitle the holders thereof to appraisal rights under the Cayman Companies Act in connection with the Business Combination. For additional information, see the question “Do I have appraisal rights if I object to the proposed Business Combination?” under the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Questions and Answers about the Proposals.

Proxy Solicitation

Proxies may be solicited by mail, by telephone, or in person. Aimei Health has engaged [Proxy Solicitor Name] (the “Proxy Solicitor”) as proxy solicitor to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

If a shareholder grants a proxy, it may still vote its shares itself if it revokes its proxy before the Meeting. A shareholder may also change its vote by entering a new vote by Internet, submitting a later-dated proxy, or attending and voting, during the Meeting as described in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Aimei Health — Revoking Your Proxy.”

Fairness Opinion

On June 19, 2024, CHFT rendered its draft opinion to Aimei Health to the effect that, as of such date, the aggregate consideration to be issued by Aimei Health in the Business Combination was fair, from a financial point of view to Aimei Health and its shareholders. For purposes of its financial analyses, CHFT assumed that the aggregate consideration per the Business Combination Agreement would have a value equal to $1,500,000,000 at Closing. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of the Opinion of CHFT.

CHFT’s opinion was only one of many factors considered by the Aimei Health board of directors in evaluating the Business Combination. Neither CHFT’s opinion nor its analyses were determinative of the aggregate consideration or of the views of the Aimei Health board of directors or management with respect to the Business Combination or the aggregate consideration. The type and amount of consideration payable in the Business Combination were determined through negotiations between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen, and the decision to enter into the Business Combination Agreement was solely that of the Aimei Health board of directors. You are encouraged to read the opinion in its entirety for a discussion of the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations upon the scope of the review undertaken by CHFT in rendering its opinion.

(the Sponsor)

 

Cash

 

As of June 30, 2025, the unpaid balance was $180,000, which was included in amount due to related party balance

 

The Sponsor agreed, commencing from the date that the Aimei Health’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities, and administrative services, as Aimei Health may require from time to time. Aimei Health agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months.

The Sponsor, Aimei Investment Ltd, acquired its Founder Shares at a nominal price of approximately $0.014 per share, compared to the $10.00 per share paid by Aimei Health’s public shareholders in its initial public offering. This significant price disparity has contributed to a material dilution of the equity interests of Aimei Health’s public shareholders, including non-redeeming shareholders. Overall, upon completion of the business combination, the Sponsor will hold a total of 1,971,400 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, including 66,400 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of Private Rights, at a cost of approximately $1.70 per share, compared to the $10.00 per share for Aimei Health’s non-redeeming shareholders. The price disparity has significantly contributed to a material dilution of the equity interests of non-redeeming shareholders of Aimei Health. Additionally, with regards to the $10,000 per month payment to the Sponsor, the relatively small amount involved is not expected to result in any material dilution to the equity interests of Aimei Health’s non-redeeming shareholders.

Dilution to the Shareholders of Aimei Health

Aimei Health’s net tangible book value as of December 31, 2024 was $72,307,939, or $8.01 per share, based on 9,026,000 Aimei Health ordinary shares outstanding as of that date. After giving effect to the automatic conversion of Aimei Health Rights into Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares upon the Closing, Aimei Health’s as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2024 would have been US$6.90 per share. The following table illustrates the changes in net tangible book value to existing shareholders and dilution to recipients of United Hydrogen Merger Shares at varying redemption levels.

For an illustration of the dilutive effect that the Business Combination, any related transactions or other transactions would have on the Aimei Health shareholders who do not request redemptions and thus hold the Pubco shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination, see “Summary of the Proxy Statement/ProspectusDilution to the Shareholders of Aimei Health”, “Risk Factors — The shareholders of Aimei Health may experience substantial dilution as a consequence of the issuance of ordinary shares in the Business Combination, and will exercise less influence over management”, and Risk Factors — If you are a shareholder of Aimei Health, you may be diluted from the adoption and implementation of the Pubco Incentive Plan.”

of 3,995,733 Pubco Ordinary Shares by public shareholders upon closing of business combination, and (iv) in addition to 2,904,267 Pubco Ordinary Shares redeemed in February 2025, further redemption of 3,724,216 Pubco Ordinary Shares by public shareholders upon closing of business combination. The redemption of 3,724,216 Pubco Ordinary Shares is the maximum amount of Pubco Ordinary Shares which could be redeemed public shareholders so as the net tangible assets upon consummation of our initial business is no less than 5,000,001.

Conflicts of Interests

When you consider the recommendation of the Aimei Health board of directors in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal, you should keep in mind that Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, including the Sponsor and its directors and executive officers, have interests in such proposals that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as an Aimei Health shareholder or rights holder. The actual or potential material conflict of interest between the Sponsor, Aimei Health’s officers, directors, and promoters, or United Hydrogen’s officers and directors, and the unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health include, among other things:

        If the Business Combination with United Hydrogen or another business combination is not consummated by December 6, 2025 (i.e., 24 months from the closing of the IPO assuming that all 12 monthly extensions are exercised), Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding Public Shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and Aimei Health’s board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, which were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 prior to the Aimei Health’s IPO (based on the closing price of Aimei Health ordinary shares on Nasdaq of $[•] per share on the Record Date, the value of the Founder Shares outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•]), are expected to be worthless because the holders are not entitled to participate in any redemption or distribution of proceeds in the Trust Account with respect to such shares. On the other hand, if the Business Combination is consummated, each outstanding Aimei Health ordinary share will be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share.

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor will be liable under certain circumstances described herein to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Aimei Health for services rendered to or, contracted for or, for products sold to, Aimei Health. If Aimei Health consummates a business combination, on the other hand, Aimei Health will be liable for all such claims.

        The Sponsor acquired the Private Placement Units for an aggregate purchase price of $3,320,000, or $10 per unit, in a transaction occurring concurrently with the closing of the Aimei Health’s IPO. Based on the closing price of the Public Units on Nasdaq of $[•] per unit on the Record Date, the value of the Private Placement Units outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•]. The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and its affiliate have not been involved in any other special purpose acquisition companies and do not hold financial interests or have contractual obligations to other entities with which Aimei Health is exploring entering into a business combination.

        As a result of the prices at which Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders acquired the Founder Shares and the Private Placement Units, and their current value, the Initial Shareholders could make a substantial profit after the completion of the Business Combination even if Aimei Health Public Shareholders lose money on their investments as a result of a decrease in the post-combination value of their Public Shares.

        The Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors and their affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on Aimei Health’s behalf, such as identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combinations. However, if Aimei Health fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, they will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement. Accordingly, Aimei Health may not be able to reimburse these expenses if the Business Combination or another business combination is not completed by December 6, 2025 (i.e., 24 months from the closing of the IPO assuming that all 12 monthly extensions are exercised). As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors and their affiliates did not incur any unpaid reimbursable expenses.

35

Table of Contents

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the aggregate dollar amount of non-reimbursable funds would be approximately $0.5 million reflecting the market value of Founder Shares, the market value of Private Placement Units, and out-of-pocket unpaid reimbursable expenses.

        Aimei Health has provisions in the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association waiving the corporate opportunities doctrine on an ongoing basis, which means that Aimei Health’s officers and directors have not been obligated and continue to not be obligated to bring all corporate opportunities to Aimei Health.

        None of Aimei Health’s officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to Aimei Health’s affairs and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating his or her time among various business activities.

        The Business Combination Agreement provides for the continued indemnification of Aimei Health’s current directors and officers and the continuation of directors and officers liability insurance covering Aimei Health’s current directors and officers.

        Aimei Health’s Sponsor, affiliates of the Sponsor, officers, and directors may, but are not obligated to, make Working Capital Loans from time to time to Aimei Health to fund certain capital requirements. Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. As of June 30, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

        The Sponsor agreed, commencing from the date that the Aimei Health’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities, and administrative services, as Aimei Health may require from time to time. Aimei Health agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months. As of June 30, 2025, the unpaid balance was $180,000, which was included in amount due to related party balance.

        On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2025, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. The deposit of the first through tenth monthly extension fee is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note (each, a “Monthly Extension Promissory Note”). The first and second Monthly Extension Promissory Notes are in the principal amount of $227,700 each, shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($113,850 each). The third through tenth Monthly Extension Promissory Note is in the principal amount of $150,000, also shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($75,000 each). Each Monthly Extension Promissory Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Sponsor and United Hydrogen have the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note, in whole or in part, into Private Units of Aimei Health, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, each consisting of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of Aimei Health, immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, by providing Aimei Health with written notices of their intention to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note at least two business days prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

Except for the conflicts of interest noted above, which primarily relate to the interests of officers and directors and the Sponsor, there are no conflicts of interest between the Sponsor, Aimei Health’s officers, directors, and promoters, or United Hydrogen’s officers and directors, and the unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health. For a description of the fiduciary obligations held by Aimei Health’s officers and directors to other entities, see “Aimei Health’s Directors and Executive Officers — Conflicts of Interest” and “United Hydrogen’s Directors and Executive Officers — Conflicts of Interest.

Recommendation to Shareholders

The Aimei Health board of directors has unanimously determined that the Business Combination Proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the Meeting are fair to and in the best interest of the shareholders of Aimei Health and unanimously recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Share Issuance Proposal, and, if presented, “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

The existence of financial and personal interests of Aimei Health’s directors and officers may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) and/or officer(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Aimei Health and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the Proposals.

the Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, duly executed by Pubco; (vii) completion of the Reorganization pursuant to the Reorganization Documents by the Completion Date; and (viii) United Hydrogen’s timely payments for any Extension pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

Regulatory Approvals

The Business Combination and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are not subject to any U.S. federal or state regulatory requirement or approval, or any regulatory requirements or approvals under the laws of the Cayman Islands or the laws of the People’s Republic of China, except for (1) the regulatory requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws, (2) the filings and registration with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands and the payment of the applicable fees under the Cayman Companies Act necessary to effectuate the Business Combination, and (3) the PRC regulatory permission for the Business Combination as more fully described under “License and Approvals Required from the PRC Authorities for Business Operations and Transactions” below.

The filing and registration requirements under the laws of the Cayman Islands include the filing of the plan of merger and other related documents required by the Cayman Companies Act (including, amongst other things, written director’s declarations of each constituent company in respect of the company’s solvency, that the merger is bona fide and not intended to defraud unsecured creditors, and there is no outstanding petition for winding up, etc.) with the Registrar of Companies. Upon payment of the applicable fee and, if the Registrar of Companies is satisfied that the requirements of the Companies Act relating to the merger have been met, the Registrar of Companies will register the plan of merger and any amendment to the memorandum or articles of association of the surviving company, issue a certificate of merger within 24 to 48 hours, on an express filing basis, or, around five working days on a normal filing basis; and strike-off each constituent company other than the surviving company once the merger becomes effective. The merger is effective on either: (a) the date the plan of merger is registered by the Registrar of Companies (the “Registration Date”); or (b) such date or the occurrence of an event subsequent to the Registration Date as specified in the plan of merger (which must not be more than 90 days after the Registration Date). The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement shall have no effect until the Plans of Mergers are registered by the Registrar of Companies. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we have not made such filing and registration with the Registrar of Companies. We will make such filing and registration prior to the closing of each of the Mergers.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Aimei Health will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the following factors: (i) United Hydrogen’s existing operations will comprise the ongoing operations of the combined company, (ii) United Hydrogen’s senior management will comprise the Senior Management of the combined company, and (iii) the former owners and management of United Hydrogen will have control of the board of directors after the Business Combination by virtue of being able to appoint a majority of the directors of the combined company.

In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Pubco issuing shares for the net assets of Aimei Health, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Aimei Health will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of United Hydrogen.

License and Approvals Required from the PRC Authorities for Business Operations and Transactions

United Hydrogen conducts its business in the PRC primarily through its PRC subsidiaries. United Hydrogen’s operations in the PRC are governed by laws and regulations of the PRC. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, United Hydrogen and its PRC subsidiaries have obtained from the PRC authorities all material permits, licenses, permissions or approvals required to engage in the businesses as currently conducted in the PRC. All such material permits,

United Hydrogen is required to complete certain filing procedures with the CSRC in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination and listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares, and CSRC must have concluded its review and published the filing results on the CSRC’s website, prior to the listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares in accordance with the requirements under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. On August 12, 2024, United Hydrogen submitted a filing with the CSRC under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures with respect to the Business Combination and the listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. The CSRC has been reviewing United Hydrogen’s materials since then, and has required United Hydrogen to provide supplementary materials on several occasions. As of the date of this draft proxy statement/prospectus, United Hydrogen has submitted all of the supplementary materials required by the CSRC, however, the CSRC has not concluded its review. Due to the uncertainties surrounding the timing and content of the CSRC’s review, United Hydrogen cannot predict the exact timing and the outcome of obtaining the CSRC filing notice. If United Hydrogen fails to complete the required filing procedures for the Business Combination and the listing of Pubco’s securities on Nasdaq on or prior to the Outside Date as defined in the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms, and the Business Combination may not be consummated.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries have obtained from the relevant PRC authorities all material licenses, permissions, and approvals required under the applicable PRC law to conduct their current business activities in the PRC, and United Hydrogen is not aware of any events that would be reasonably expected to result in the revocation or cancellation of these licenses, permissions and approvals.

If (i) United Hydrogen does not receive or maintain any required approval, or fails to complete any required review or filing, (ii) United Hydrogen erroneously concludes that such approval, review or filing is not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change such that it becomes mandatory for United Hydrogen to obtain any approval, review or filing in the future, United Hydrogen may have to expend significant time and costs to comply with these requirements. If United Hydrogen is unable to do so, on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or otherwise, it may become subject to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against it, and other forms of sanctions, and United Hydrogen’s ability to conduct its business, invest into China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, complete the Transactions, or list on a U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and its business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Further, United Hydrogen’s ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and the value of United Hydrogen’s securities may significantly decline. However, United Hydrogen cannot predict whether or when it will be able to obtain such approvals or complete such filings, and even if it obtains such approvals, they could be rescinded. Any failure or delay in obtaining such approvals, complying with such filing requirements related to the

offering, or a rescission of such approvals could subject United Hydrogen to sanctions imposed by the CSRC and the CAC or other PRC government authorities. For a more detailed discussion, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — The approval of the CSRC, the CAC, or other PRC regulatory agencies may be required in connection with the Business Combination under a PRC regulation or any new laws, rules or regulations to be enacted, and if required, United Hydrogen cannot assure you that it will be able to obtain such approval.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Pubco owns no material assets other than the equity interests of first Merger Sub and second Merger Sub and it does not operate any business in the PRC. In addition, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Aimei Health has no subsidiaries and does not conduct business in the PRC. Therefore, neither Pubco and its subsidiaries nor Aimei Health are required to undergo or obtain any other procedure or permission, including the CSRC and the CAC, in connection with its current business or the Business Combination.

If Pubco, Aimei Health and any subsidiaries: (i) do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, (ii) inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations thereof change and become subject to the requirement of additional permissions or approvals in the future, there is no assurance that Pubco, Aimei Health and any subsidiaries will be able to obtain such permissions or approvals in a timely manner, or at all, and such approvals may be rescinded even if obtained. Any such circumstance could subject us to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against us, and other forms of sanctions, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. For more detailed information, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — Our operations in China face regulatory and licensing risks inherent in the development and operation of hydrogen-powered vehicles and infrastructure.

Summary of Risk Factors

In evaluating the proposals to be presented at the Meeting, a shareholder should carefully read this proxy statement/prospectus and especially consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” These risks are summarized below.

Risks Relating to United Hydrogen’s Business and Industry (for a more detailed discussion, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to United Hydrogen’s Business and Industry on page 49 of this proxy statement/prospectus)

        Changes of policies and regulatory frameworks by the Chinese government supporting the hydrogen energy industry may have a significant impact on United Hydrogen’s industry and business operations.

        United Hydrogen is highly dependent on the services of Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and ultimate controlling shareholder.

        United Hydrogen historically experienced operating losses or profit and there is no guarantee that United Hydrogen may maintain its profitability and will not experience losses again.

Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC (for a more detailed discussion, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC” on page 62 of this proxy statement/prospectus)

        Changes in China’s economic, political, or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on United Hydrogen’s operations and following the Business Combination, Pubco’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and the value of Pubco’s securities.

        The Chinese government may promulgate laws, regulations or policies which could result in a material change in United Hydrogen’s operations and cause the value of United Hydrogen’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

        The Chinese government’s broad oversight and discretion may enable intervention in our operations at any time, potentially impacting our operations or affecting the value of the Ordinary Shares.

        Rapid, unpredictable changes in PRC laws, regulations, and policies can limit the legal protections available, which potentially leads to material changes in our operations or the value of the Ordinary Shares.

        Cash or assets held in the PRC may be restricted from transfer abroad due to regulations, foreign exchange controls, statutory reserves, and taxes, which may in turn limit Pubco’s ability to deploy these resources for operations, dividends or capital contributions.

40

Table of Contents

        Because United Hydrogen’s primary operations are in China, its business is subject to a significant degree of the complex and rapidly evolving laws and regulations there. (See pages 65 of this proxy statement/prospectus for details).

        Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow Pubco’s holding company structure, which may result in a material change in its operations and/or a material change in the value of the securities that Pubco is registering for sale.

        The filing with the CSRC is required in connection with the Business Combination, and we cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain such approval or complete such filing.

        Restrictions on PRC investments and currency controls may limit our ability to use Business Combination proceeds for loans or capital contributions to PRC subsidiaries, adversely impacting our liquidity and business expansion.

        Enforcing legal actions, foreign judgments, or conducting investigations against Pubco or its management in China may be challenging due to jurisdictional and legal barriers.

Risks Relating to Aimei Health and the Business Combination (for a more detailed discussion, see “Risks Relating to Aimei Health and the Business Combination” on page 81 of this proxy statement/prospectus)

        The shareholders of Aimei Health may experience substantial dilution as a consequence of the issuance of ordinary shares in the Business Combination, and will exercise less influence over management.

        The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price.

        The fairness opinion obtained by the Aimei Health board of directors will not reflect changes, circumstances, developments, or events that may have occurred or may occur after the date of the opinion.

        The consummation of the Business Combination is subject to a number of conditions and if those conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the Business Combination may not be completed.

        The Initial Shareholders who own ordinary shares and private placement units will not participate in liquidation distributions and, therefore, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether the Business Combination is appropriate.

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete the Transactions or another initial business combination by December 6, 2025 (if extended to the maximum 24-month period after the closing of the IPO or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association), Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding public shares and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholder and the Aimei Health board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, third parties may bring claims against Aimei Health and, as a result, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share liquidation price received by shareholders could be less than $10.10 per share.

        Becoming a public company through a business combination rather than an underwritten offering presents risks to unaffiliated investors of Pubco. Subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, Pubco may be required to subsequently take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment, or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations, and the price of Pubco securities, which could cause Pubco shareholders to lose some or all of their investment.

        The Sponsor of Aimei Health has the right to extend the term Aimei Health has to consummate its business combination, without providing shareholders with redemption rights.

Risks Relating to the Financial Projections (for a more detailed discussion, see “Risks Relating to the Financial Projections” on page 102 of this proxy statement/prospectus)

        None of Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, or any of their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors, or representatives has made or makes any representation or can give any assurance to any Aimei Health shareholders, or any other person, regarding the ultimate performance of United Hydrogen compared to the information set forth in the financial projections provided in this proxy statement/prospectus.

41

Table of Contents

        United Hydrogen management made numerous material estimates in developing the projections provided to Aimei Health and its financial advisor.

        A decline in financial forecast or the failure of actual financial results of United Hydrogen to meet the forecasted results as disclosed elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus may adversely affect the future financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Pubco.

Risks Relating to Pubco’s Business and Operations Following the Business Combination (for a more detailed discussion, see “Risks Relating to Pubco’s Business and Operations Following the Business Combination” on page 104 of this proxy statement/prospectus)

        Pubco will incur higher costs post-Business Combination as a result of being a public company (see page 104 of this proxy statement/prospectus).

        Pubco may or may not pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

        Pubco will be an “emerging growth company,” and it cannot be certain if the reduced SEC reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors, which could have a material and adverse effect on Pubco, including its growth prospects.

        As a “foreign private issuer” under the rules and regulations of the SEC, Pubco is permitted to file less or different information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the United States or otherwise subject to these rules and is permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements applicable to U.S. issuers.

        Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules, and may follow certain exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that could adversely affect its public shareholders.

Holding Company Structure

Pubco is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. United Hydrogen, Pubco’s wholly owned subsidiary post-Business Combination, conducts its operations through its operating subsidiaries in the PRC, including Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng, and various subsidiaries thereof. Investments in Pubco’s securities are not purchases of equity securities of these operating subsidiaries in the PRC, but instead are purchases of equity securities of a Cayman Islands holding company with no material operations of its own. This holding company structure involves unique risks to investors.

As a result of its corporate structure, Pubco’s ability to pay dividends post-Business Combination depends upon receipt of dividends paid by its subsidiaries. If Pubco’s existing subsidiaries or any newly formed ones incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing their debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to Pubco.

In connection with the Reorganization, United Hydrogen WFOE paid RMB703,761 (equivalent to $98,867.83 calculated based on the BOC Exchange Rate as of September 11, 2024, the date of payment of such amount) to Chuanyan Holdings Limited as consideration for the acquisition of ownership interest of Yixun Chuangneng held by Chuanyan Holdings Limited, and RMB310,815 (equivalent to $43,664.83 calculated based on the BOC Exchange Rate as of September 11, 2024, the date of payment of such amount) to Chuanyan Holdings Limited as consideration for the acquisition of ownership interest of Zhejiang Qingyuan held by Chuanyan Holdings Limited. On December 31, 2021, Hydrogen Jiachuang (Jiaxing) New Energy Operation Co., Ltd. paid dividends in the amount of RMB830,000 (equivalent to $130,181.78, calculated based on the BOC Exchange rate as of December 31, 2021, the date of payment of such amount) to Zhejiang Qingyuan, its shareholder. On December 31, 2021, Zhejiang Qingyuan paid dividends in the aggregate amount of RMB3,000,000 (equivalent to $470,536.57, calculated based on the BOC Exchange rate as of December 31, 2021, the date of payment of such amount) to Shanghai RunQing Management Consulting Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership) and Shanghai Qicai Technology Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership), its then shareholders. On February 29, 2024, Hydrogen Jiachuang (Jiaxing) New Energy Operation Co., Ltd. declared to pay dividends in the amount of RMB1,300,000 (equivalent to $183,005.80, calculated based on the BOC Exchange Rate as of February 29, 2024, the date when the dividends were declared) to Zhejiang Qingyuan, its shareholder, which dividends are expected to be paid within the following one-year period. On February 29, 2024, Zhejiang Qingyuan declared to pay dividends in the aggregate amount of RMB7,000,000 (equivalent to $985,415.85 calculated based on the BOC Exchange Rate as of February 29, 2024, the

42

Table of Contents

date when the dividends were declared) to Shanghai RunQing Management Consulting Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership) and Shanghai Qicai Technology Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership), its then shareholders, which dividends are expected to be paid within the following one-year period.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, neither United Hydrogen nor any of its subsidiaries have paid any dividends or distributions to their parent companies or any investor, and there has been no transfer of cash among United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries, other than those described above and transactions in the ordinary course of business among United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries. United Hydrogen has established controls and procedures for cash flows within its organization based on internal cash management policies established by its finance department, which were discussed, considered, and reviewed by the relevant departments in United Hydrogen, and approved by its Chairperson of the Board of Directors. Specifically, its finance department supervises cash management, following the instructions of its management. Its finance department assumes a leading role in establishing the cash operation plan and coordinating cash management matters among United Hydrogen’s subsidiaries and departments. Each subsidiary and department initiate a cash request by putting forward a cash demand plan, which explains the specific amount and timing of cash requested, and submitting it to its finance department. The finance department reviews the cash demand plan and prepares a summary for the management of United Hydrogen. Management examines and approves the allocation of cash based on the sources of cash and the priorities of the needs. Other than the above, United Hydrogen currently does not have other cash management policies or procedures that dictate how funds are transferred.

To the extent cash or assets are held in the PRC or by a Chinese entity, they may not be readily available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC, including any distribution of dividends or earnings to the shareholders of the Pubco, due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on Pubco’s ability to transfer cash or assets by the PRC government. For example, Pubco’s subsidiaries in the PRC are permitted to pay dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Additionally, each of Pubco’s PRC subsidiaries is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Companies in the PRC are also required to further set aside a portion of their after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at their discretion. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends; the PRC subsidiaries are required to complete certain procedural requirements related to foreign exchange control in order to make dividend payments in foreign currencies; A withholding tax, at the rate of 10% or lower, is payable by the PRC subsidiaries on dividends paid to non-resident enterprises; approval from or registration with competent PRC government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. Without the fulfillment of these procedures, United Hydrogen and its PRC subsidiaries may not make any distributions to Pubco and/or its shareholders.

In addition, we cannot assure you that new regulations or policies will not be promulgated in the future, which may further restrict the remittance of RMB into or out of the PRC. We cannot assure you, in light of the restrictions in place, or any amendment to be made from time to time, that our current or future PRC subsidiaries will be able to satisfy their respective payment obligations that are denominated in foreign currencies, including the remittance of dividends out of the PRC.

Foreign Private Issuer

After the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will report under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, the determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to Pubco on December 31, 2024. For so long as Pubco is a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, it will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

        the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K with the SEC;

        the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

        the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and

        the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material nonpublic information under Regulation Fair Disclosure, or Regulation FD, which regulates selective disclosure of material non-public information by issuers.

43

Table of Contents

Pubco will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information Pubco is required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. Accordingly, after the Business Combination, Pubco shareholders will receive less or different information about Pubco than a shareholder of a U.S. domestic public company would receive. Nonetheless, Pubco intends to align itself with the practices adopted by Nasdaq-listed U.S. domestic companies to the best of its ability to provide its shareholders with enhanced transparency and protection.

In addition, for as long Pubco remains a foreign private issuer, it is permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country, the Cayman Islands, in lieu of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq applicable to U.S. domestic companies. For example, among other things, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, Pubco is not required to have: (1) a majority-independent board of directors; (2) a compensation committee consisting of independent directors; (3) a nominating committee consisting of independent directors; or (4) regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year. In addition, the Company is not obliged to hold an annual general meeting as an exempted company under the Companies Act. And because we are a foreign private issuer, our audit committee is not necessarily subject to additional Nasdaq corporate governance requirements applicable to listed U.S. companies whereby the audit committee shall be made up of such number of independent directors. The Nasdaq Listing Rules may also require shareholder approval for certain corporate matters that Pubco’s home-country’s rules do not. Following Cayman Islands governance practices, as opposed to complying with the requirements applicable to a U.S. company listed on Nasdaq, may provide less protection to you than would otherwise be the case.

Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco’s board of directors will consist of five directors, including three independent directors. Additionally, Pubco will establish an audit committee (composed of three independent directors), a nomination and corporate governance committee (composed of three directors, two of whom are independent), and a compensation committee (composed of three directors, two of whom are independent). These arrangements are in compliance with Nasdaq Rules. However, Pubco may follow the home-country practice for certain other corporate governance practices in the future, which may differ from the requirements applicable to a U.S. company listed on Nasdaq. In addition, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, Pubco may, but shall not (unless required by the law or the rules and regulations of Nasdaq or the SEC and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under applicable law) be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as an annual general meeting.

Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act

The HFCA Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, requires the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if the PCAOB is unable to inspect its auditor for three consecutive years beginning in 2022 or two consecutive years beginning in 2023. Pubco’s auditor is headquartered in Singapore and is subject to PCAOB inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect to the working papers of Pubco’s auditor and Pubco’s auditor is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. If trading in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares is prohibited under the HFCA Act in the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, Nasdaq may determine to delist Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and trading in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be prohibited. On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed the Protocol governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — Joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to Pubco’s listing on Nasdaq or future offerings of its securities in the U.S.

Table of Contents

Controlled Company

After the completion of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma will control a majority of the voting power of Pubco’s outstanding ordinary shares. As a result, Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of applicable Nasdaq listing rules. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (i) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities, and (iii) that its board of directors have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to utilize some or all of these exemptions. Although Pubco will have a compensation committee and nominating committee, such committees will not be composed entirely of “independent directors.” Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco anticipates that the size of its board of directors will be five (5) directors, three of whom will qualify as independent directors as defined within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq listing rules and will meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements.

According to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, Class B Ordinary Shares of Pubco carry ten (10) votes per share. Immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, Ms. Ma will control approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As such, she will retain the ability to control the outcome of any matters submitted to a general meeting of the Pubco without needing to hold any Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, Ms. Ma does not need to hold any Class A Ordinary Shares to maintain control over matters requiring shareholder approval, so long as she retains a majority of the voting power of her Class B Ordinary Shares.

With approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power (assuming no redemptions) or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power (assuming maximum contractual redemptions), Ms. Ma has the ability to control matters requiring shareholder approval, including but not limited to, the election of directors, amendments to the memorandum and articles of association, and the approval of significant corporate transactions such as mergers, recapitalization, consolidations, and asset sales. Under Article 2.7 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, certain corporate actions, including amendments or mergers, require the approval of a majority of the Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a separate class. Given her Class B holdings, Ms. Ma is effectively positioned to control these decisions.

Pubco’s capital structure, which grants Class B Ordinary Shares ten (10) votes per share, gives Ms. Ma significant voting power. This structure may have an anti-takeover effect by enabling Ms. Ma to prevent a change in control transaction that Class A shareholders might otherwise consider in their best interest. As a result, the disproportionate voting power of the Class B shares allows Ms. Ma to block such transactions, even if they are supported by a majority of Class A shareholders.

Under Article 2.1 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the board of directors of Pubco (the “Board”) has broad authority to issue shares. However, given Ms. Xia Ma’s substantial control over the Board and her significant voting power through her Class B Ordinary Shares, the likelihood of future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares that would dilute the rights of Class A shareholders is relatively low. Ms. Ma, by virtue of her control over both the Board and the voting power of Pubco, is well-positioned to prevent any issuances that might dilute Class A shareholders’ interests. Therefore, while the authority to issue shares exists, the potential for further dilution through additional Class B Ordinary Share issuances appears limited under the current governance structure.

RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors will apply to the business and operations of Pubco following the Closing. These risk factors are not exhaustive, and investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to the business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results of United Hydrogen’s and Pubco’s business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results following the completion of the Business Combination. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus, including matters addressed in the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements,” before deciding how to vote your Aimei Health ordinary shares. Please see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” in this proxy statement/prospectus. Pubco and Aimei Health may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to them, or that they currently deem immaterial, which may also impair Pubco’s business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of United Hydrogen and the financial statement of Aimei Health and notes thereto included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Risks Relating to United Hydrogen’s Business and Industry

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this subsection to the “Company,” “United Hydrogen,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which will be the business of Pubco and its subsidiaries following the consummation of the Business Combination.

If we are unable to manage our growth or execute our strategies effectively, our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

We currently operate in two primary business sectors in key regions of China, hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications. Our hydrogen energy solutions focus on the evaluation, design, and construction (through third-party construction contractors) of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, and the provision of post-delivery operation and management services. Our hydrogen commercial applications focus on the sale of fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts and the design, sale and leasing of fuel cell forklifts. Our ultimate goal is to expand our business in the hydrogen industry to encompass hydrogen production, storage, transportation, refueling, equipment supply, and commercial applications. By covering the entire hydrogen value chain, we aim to ensure seamless and cost-effective integration and delivery of hydrogen solutions, which is expected to enhance our market presence and provide us with significant competitive strength. Specifically, we plan to participate in the construction of more hydrogen production plants, enter into more areas of the hydrogen supply chain, establish a giga plant (the “Giga Plant”) in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China, and develop a new generation of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts. Additionally, we plan to upgrade the digital platforms used in our operation and management services. We are also committed to explore green hydrogen technology by launching demonstration projects and offering hydrogen derivative products, such as green methanol and ammonia, in regions with viable photovoltaic, wind power, and hydropower resources.

However, our ability to successfully manage our growth and execute our business initiatives and strategies is not guaranteed. The timing and cost to complete the construction of these plants or facilities are subject to a number of factors beyond our control, which may result in delays and higher expenses than anticipated or may fail to generate the expected level of return on investment or none at all. We may also encounter unexpected challenges, technically or otherwise, in developing new generation of fuel cell forklifts or green hydrogen technology. We might decide against continuing to pursue certain growth initiatives or may be forced to reduce our efforts in response to changes in market conditions, regulatory environments or for other reasons. Our failure to successfully execute our growth initiatives and strategies would materially and adversely affect our business, operations and growth prospects.

To achieve our goals, we must allocate more resources to marketing, business development, and customer or supplier relationship management. We also need to invest heavily in technology research and development, and continue to hire, train and effectively manage new employees. To manage the expected growth of our business and operational scale, we will need to continue improving our transaction processing, technological, operational and financial systems, policies, procedures and controls. This will increase the complexity of our operations and may strain our managerial, operational and financial resources. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively manage our growth or successfully implement our strategies. If we fail to manage our growth effectively, or at all, our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

Changes of policies and regulatory frameworks by the Chinese government supporting the hydrogen energy industry may have a significant impact on our industry and business operations.

Our business operations and growth and the viability and competitiveness of our hydrogen ecosystem strategy will depend, in part, upon favorable laws, regulations, and policies related to hydrogen industry.

We operate in China. In order to boost hydrogen energy capacity, the central government of China is formulating various policies and initiatives. We believe the impact of these steps will influence the market over the medium-term and could impact our financial condition and results of operations. For example, the Chinese government introduced the Hydrogen Energy Industry Development Plan (2021-2035) and Development Plan for the New Energy Vehicle Industry (2021-2035), aiming to enhance the development of hydrogen production, storage, and utilization technologies. On July 19, 2023, the Standardization Administration of China, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Emergency Management, and the National Energy Administration issued the “Guidelines for the Construction of the Hydrogen Energy Industry Standard System (2023 Edition).” The National Energy Administration (NEA) issued guidelines in 2024 to promote the use of hydrogen in industrial and transportation sectors. These guidelines provide a framework for the deployment of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations and the integration of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Moreover, the local governments have implemented safety and regulatory standards for hydrogen production, storage, and transportation to ensure the safe development of the hydrogen industry. The standards include stringent requirements for the construction and operation of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations.

These policies and standards are expected to provide a stable regulatory environment and promote technological advancements, thus encouraging investment in hydrogen infrastructure and equipment in China. However, the regulatory framework and government policies related to hydrogen energy industry in China are relatively new and continuously evolving, these government policies may be subject to restrictions and uncertainties beyond our control, and the Chinese government may continually adjust and change these policies. Reductions or cancellations of incentives or other economic benefits related to favorable industry policies announced by the government, due to policy changes, fiscal tightening, or other reasons, or any government guidelines that reduce the demand for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, may weaken the overall competitiveness of the hydrogen energy industry. In such a case, our business, financial condition, and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

If demand for our hydrogen services and products does not develop as we expect, our revenue will suffer, and our business will be harmed.

The demand for our services and products depends on the overall market demand for hydrogen energy in China, especially the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle market. The hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry in China is still in the early stages of development, characterized by continuously changing technology, immature infrastructure, evolving government regulations and industry standards, and fluctuating market demand. The viability and demand for our services and products may be affected by many factors outside of our control, including, but not limited to:

        cost competitiveness, reliability and performance of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations and supply chains compared to conventional and non-hydrogen renewable energy sources and products;

        competing new technologies at more competitive prices than those we offer for our products;

        availability and amount of government subsidies and incentives to support the deployment of hydrogen energy solutions;

        the extent to which the electric power industry and broader energy industries are deregulated to permit broader adoption of hydrogen electricity generation;

        prices of traditional carbon-based energy sources;

        levels of investment by end-users of hydrogen energy products, which tend to decrease when economic growth slows;

        the emergence, continuance or success of, or increased government support for, other alternative energy generation technologies and products; and

50

Table of Contents

        regional, national or global macroeconomic trends, which could affect the demand for new energy resources.

Powered by an alternative greenhouse energy, the electric vehicles (“EV”) industry is growing significantly and rapidly in China. The EV industry has gained a lot of popularity in China. The EV industry is a significant competitor to the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry for reasons including: the Chinese government has been a strong proponent of EVs, providing subsidies and policy support; China has built a vast network of public and private charging stations, making EVs more convenient for consumers; the mass production capabilities and economies of scale achieved by major Chinese automakers have driven down costs, making EVs more affordable and accessible to the average consumer; and advancements in battery technology have significantly improved the range, efficiency, and cost of EVs. The competitiveness of EVs may reduce market demand for hydrogen products and services.

If our expectations regarding the market size, our ability to effectively sell services and products, competitive pricing pressures, or revenue generation levels do not materialize as anticipated, our business could be adversely affected.

The rapidly evolving and competitive nature of the hydrogen industry makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects.

The hydrogen energy industry is in a stage of rapid development, with emerging technologies continuously appearing in all aspects of the industrial chain, including production, storage, transportation, refueling, and usage. Existing technologies are also constantly iterating and upgrading. To provide customers with more efficient, advanced, and cost-effective solutions, we need to deeply understand the customer application environments and provide dynamic and flexible solutions to meet their changing needs and to quickly learn, verify, adopt, and implement new technologies. This involves rapidly responding to customer usage environments to help them use the most suitable technological solutions. Through a rapid response mechanism, we aim to work with our suppliers to deliver new product and service combinations to customers in the shortest time, with controllable costs and excellent quality, thereby helping customers achieve their zero-carbon business goals. We will continue to invest in technology research and development, collaborate with more technology partners, train employees to familiarize themselves with and test various new technologies, and continually work with our suppliers to innovate in products and services using new technologies. In particular, we are planning to develop a new generation of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts, upgraded digital platforms used in our operation and management services, and green hydrogen technology.

However, we cannot guarantee that the research and development efforts of ours or our suppliers’ will be completed within the expected timeframe or that they will lead to commercially successful new products. If we experience delays in production development and technology integration, fail to meet changing market demands, fail to keep up with the latest technological developments, or fail to successfully launch competitive new products to the market, and if our competitors respond more swiftly than we do, our business, financial condition, and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Any significant product defects, failures, or negative publicity related to the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry could damage our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Currently, the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry in China is still in the early stages of commercialization, and the emerging technologies used in hydrogen fuel cell systems and vehicles may be immature. Design flaws, defects in raw materials or components, or manufacturing difficulties may result in errors, defects, or poor performance, which could affect the quality and performance of our products. Newly developed or newly launched next-generation products or upgraded technologies may have potential technical errors or safety issues. Any actual or anticipated errors, defects, or poor performance of our products could lead to product replacement, repairs or rejections, transportation delays, revenue losses, increased customer service and support costs, and damage to our reputation, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business.

Furthermore, product liability claims, injuries, defects, or other issues faced by other companies in the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry, as well as any negative publicity or events related to hydrogen fuel cell systems, hydrogen transportation vehicles, hydrogen production plants, and hydrogen refueling stations, could negatively impact the market reputation of the entire industry. This could adversely affect market demand and our ability to attract new customers, thereby harming our business growth and financial performance.

Our negative net operating cash flows in the past may expose us to certain liquidity risks and could constrain our operational flexibility.

We had negative net operating cash flows in the years 2024 and 2023. Our cash flows were affected by a general mismatch of cash inflow and outlay at the operational level, resulting from our longer accounts receivable turnover days compared to our accounts payable turnover days, as our customers’ payment processes are generally longer than our payment process. Additionally, the decrease in contract liabilities negatively impacted cash flow by reducing the upfront cash we received before services were rendered.

We cannot assure you that we will not experience net current liabilities or negative net operating cash flows in the future. Our future liquidity, ability to make necessary capital expenditures, the payment of accounts payable and other payables, as and when they become due, will primarily depend on our ability to maintain adequate cash inflows from our operating activities and adequate equity financing. Our ability to generate adequate cash inflows from operating activities may be affected by our future operating performance, prevailing economic conditions, our financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Also, we may not be able to seek for external financing in the near future on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, or at all. The occurrence of any of the foregoing may cause us not to have sufficient cash flow to fund our operating costs and constrain our operational flexibility and, in that event, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We are subject to customer concentration risk. Our growth and revenue could be materially and adversely affected if we lose any significant customer, or if any significant customer fails to cooperate with us at anticipated levels.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had (i) four significant customers, Ningbo Jingling Gongmao Co., Ltd. (宁波京翎工贸有限公司), Feichi Auto Technology Co., Ltd. (佛山市飞驰汽车科技有限公司), Jiaxing China East United Hydrogen Technology Co., Ltd. (嘉兴华东联和氢能科技有限公司) and Shanxi Meijin Huasheng Chemical New Material Co., Ltd. (山西美锦华盛化工新材料有限公司), which accounted for 20.0%, 19.3%, 12.7% and 11.9%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable balance, and (ii) three significant customers, Ningbo Jingling Gongmao Co., Ltd. (宁波京翎工贸有限公司), Feichi Auto Technology Co., Ltd. (佛山市飞驰汽车科技有限公司), and Shanxi Meijin Huasheng Chemical New Material Co., Ltd. (山西美锦华盛化工新材料有限公司), which accounted for 14.6%, 14.2%, and 11.1% of our total revenues, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we had (i) four significant customers, Ordos Yuechi New Energy Vehicle Co., Ltd. (鄂尔多斯市悦驰新能源汽车有限公司), Jiaocheng Wanghui Energy Co., Ltd. (交城旺辉能源有限公司), Jiangsu Linyang Yiwei Energy Storage Technology Co., Ltd. (江苏林洋亿纬储能科技有限公司) and Lüliang Huitong Energy Co., Ltd. (吕梁市汇通能源有限公司), which accounted for 24.5%, 19.2%, 17.2% and 16.7%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable balance, and (ii) five significant customers, Shanxi Meijin Luhe Gas Co., Ltd. (山西美锦陆合气体有限公司), Ordos Yuechi New Energy Vehicle Co., Ltd. (鄂尔多斯市悦驰新能源汽车有限公司), Jiangsu Linyang Yiwei Energy Storage Technology Co., Ltd. (江苏林洋亿纬储能科技有限公司), Jiaocheng Wanghui Energy Co., Ltd. (交城旺辉能源有限公司), and Lüliang Huitong Energy Co., Ltd. (吕梁市汇通能源有限公司), which accounted for 19.1%, 15.2%, 14.3%, 11.5%, and 10.0% of our total revenues, respectively.

There are a number of factors, other than our performance, that could cause loss of, or decrease in the volume of business from, a significant customer, including without limitation:

        Changes in economy: economic downturns or recessions can impact a customer’s ability to maintain business with us.

        Shifts in market demand: fluctuations in market trends or customer needs can drive our existing customers to seek alternative solutions.

        Competitive offers: competitors providing better pricing, superior products or more attractive terms may lure our existing customers away.

        Customer complaints and after-sale support: our inability to resolve customer complaints or provide adequate after-sale service support can result in customer dissatisfaction and loss of business.

We cannot assure you that we will continue to maintain the business cooperation with these significant customers at the same level, or at all. The loss of business from any of these significant customers, or any downward adjustment of the products/services price paid to us, could materially and adversely affect our revenue and profit. Furthermore, if any significant customer terminates its relationship with us, we cannot assure you that we will be able to secure an alternative arrangement with comparable customers in a timely manner, or at all.

We face additional challenges in retaining long-term relationship with as well as seeking legal remedies against significant customers who are government agencies, or state-owned enterprises, or large conglomerates.

Many of our significant customers are government agencies, state-owned enterprises, or large conglomerates. The timelines, procedures and considerations for these customers to make a decision are beyond our control, which makes it more difficult and unmanageable to retain long-term relationship with such customers.

In addition, in the event of any legal disputes with government agencies or state-owned enterprises, we may face challenges in bringing legal actions and seeking remedies against such customers. Under Chinese law, it is possible to sue government agencies, including for breach of contract. The Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China and the Civil Procedure Law of the People’s Republic of China provide the legal framework for such cases. However, there may be specific procedural requirements, such as first seeking administrative reconsideration before going to court, and there may also be political challenges when suing a government agency. It may also be difficult for us to conduct investigations or collect evidence from government agencies or state-owned enterprises. Even if a court rules in favor of us, enforcing the ruling against government agencies or state-owned enterprises may also be complex. These practical obstacles in enforcing our contractual rights and seeking remedies against government agencies or state-owned enterprises may render us insufficient legal protections, which can materially and adversely affect our business.

Our failure to secure new customers or maintain existing customers may adversely affect our business operations and financial results.

Our current customer base is highly concentrated among a few significant customers, making our ability to win new customers key for our business growth. Project proposals and deal negotiations in connection with securing a new customer are complex. They could involve a lengthy bidding and selection process. Additionally, various factors such as market conditions, financing arrangements, and required governmental approvals frequently influence these negotiations.

Our engagements often involve complex projects with heightened standards for performance, such as the evaluation, design, and construction of hydrogen production plants or hydrogen refueling stations. The success of these projects relied heavily on our ability to manage customer relationships, effectively oversee the project and deploy appropriate resources, including third-party suppliers, in a timely manner. If a project is not completed on schedule or fails to meet required performance standards, we may not be able to retain the customers.

Our business will continue to be dependent on third-party suppliers. The failure of a supplier to deliver us the expected products and services in a timely manner or at all, or our inability to obtain substitute sources of supply on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, could impair our ability to deliver products and services to our customers, which would in turn materially and adversely affect our business.

Operating under a “light asset” business model, we rely on third-party suppliers to deliver our products and services to customers. For example, our hydrogen energy solutions rely on equipment manufacturers and construction contractors to build and operate hydrogen plants and hydrogen fuel stations, our hydrogen commercial applications rely on developers and manufacturers of fuel cell systems and forklifts, and we also rely on IT suppliers to provide the digital management platforms. See “Business of United Hydrogen — Business Model — Hydrogen Energy Solutions,” and “Business of United Hydrogen — Business Model — Hydrogen Commercial Applications”.

We believe such “light asset” business model enhances our agility and refocuses resources on core capabilities. However, it may also create risks if any of our key suppliers fail to deliver us in a timely manner or at all the products and services that meet our quality, quantity, safety and cost requirements, or technical specifications. The complexity of our projects, such as constructing hydrogen plants and fuel stations, which demands a high standard of profession, skill, safety management and quality control, highlights such risks. Additionally, if we are unable to pass on the increased costs to our customers in a timely manner or at all, any significant increase in the prices charged by our suppliers will increase our costs and may adversely affect our operating performance. We cannot guarantee that we will not face shortages or significant price increases for our supplies in the future. If a supplier fails to deliver the products or services to us for any reason or terminates the business relationship with us, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to identify and obtain substitute sources of supply on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us. If any of these occurs, our business and operating performance will be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to supplier concentration risk. Our operation could be materially and adversely affected if we lose any significant supplier, or if we fail to cooperate with any significant supplier at anticipated levels.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had (i) two significant suppliers, Foshan Feichi Auto Technology Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Jieqing Technology Co., Ltd., which accounted for 22.8% and 22.2% of our total accounts payable balance, respectively, and (ii) two significant suppliers, Foshan Feichi Auto Technology Co., Ltd., and Hainan Yingjie Energy Co., Ltd, which accounted for 19.1% and 12.1% of our total purchase, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we had (i) three significant suppliers, Hydrosys (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd, Guohong Hydrogen Technology (Jiaxing) Holding Co., Ltd. and Beijing Soaring Electrical Technology Co., Ltd, which accounted for 18.3%, 12.3% and 10.5% of our total accounts payable balance, respectively, and (ii) two significant suppliers, Shanghai Hydrogen Propulsion Technology Co., Ltd and Hydrosys (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd, which accounted for 68.5% and 11.1% of our total purchase, respectively.

The agreements with our significant suppliers typically last one to three years and our significant suppliers are not exclusively providing products or services to us.

We cannot assure you that we will continue to maintain the business cooperation with these significant suppliers at the same level, or at all. If any significant supplier terminates its relationship with us, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain alternative products or services from comparable suppliers in a timely manner or on acceptable terms. Our provision of products and services to our customers may therefore be compromised, which could materially and adversely affect our revenue and profit.

Our reliance on third-party suppliers exposes us to several significant risks:

        Quality control issues:    third-party suppliers may fail to meet our quality standards, which can negatively impact our hydrogen projects and damages our reputation. Inconsistent or subpar quality can lead to project delays, increased costs, and the potential for customer dissatisfaction.

        Supply chain interruption:    any termination or interruption in the supply of necessary equipment and products can delay our projects and increase costs. This includes disruptions due to supplier bankruptcy, labor strikes, natural disasters, geopolitical issues, or logistical challenges, all of which can halt production and affect our timelines.

        Increased costs:    fluctuations in supplier pricing, the imposition of new tariffs, or increased transportation costs can raise our operational expenses, which can, in turn, reduce our profit margins and make our pricing less competitive.

        Difficulty in securing alternatives:    if our current suppliers fail to meet our needs, finding new, reliable alternatives can be challenging and time-consuming. The process of qualifying new suppliers, negotiating terms and integrating them into our supply chain can disrupt our operations and lead to additional costs.

        Dependence on supplier performance:    our projects’ success often depends on the timely and efficient performance of our suppliers. Delays or failures on their part can have a cascading effect on our project schedules and budgets, potentially leading to contractual penalties and loss of customer trust.

These risks could adversely affect our ability to deliver projects on time and within budget, potentially harming our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we fail to maintain an effective quality and safety control system, it could have a significant adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial condition, and operating performance.

For hydrogen energy products and services, such as our hydrogen energy solutions to construct (through third-party construction contractors) and operate hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, quality and safety are particularly important. Quality determines the benefits customers receive from using our solutions, impacting customer satisfaction, subsequent order renewals, and the expansion of new business. Safety is paramount, as the protection of property and personal safety in the customer’s application environment is the most crucial aspect of our operations. The effectiveness of the quality and safety control system depends on multiple factors, including system design, the machinery used, employee quality, related training programs, and our ability to ensure employees comply with quality control policies and guidelines. We must adhere to specific guidelines established by international product safety laws and regulations applicable to restricted and hazardous materials in the jurisdictions where our products are sold to customers.

We provide regular training or education on safe work practices, emergency response procedures, and the proper use of personal protective equipment. We have developed safety protocols to follow industry standards and regulatory requirements for the operation and maintenance of hydrogen infrastructure and fuel cell forklifts, including the following major aspects:

        Training on the operation of fuel cell forklifts

        Periodic inspection, calibration, and maintenance of key equipment used in hydrogen facilities and key components used in fuel cell forklifts to ensure their safety and performance

        Daily monitoring of the operation of the hydrogen facilities and fuel cell forklifts

        Regular safety inspection by suppliers of key equipment and components

        Incident responses plan in anticipation of equipment fault, vehicle accident, hydrogen leakage, fire or explosion hazards, and other applicable emergencies

However, we cannot guarantee that our quality and safety control system will continue to be effective and comply with relevant laws, regulations, and standards. Any significant failure or decline in the effectiveness of our quality and safety control system could result in the loss of recognition and necessary certifications or qualifications, which could have a significant adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial condition, and operating performance.

The nature of our products and services may expose our business to product safety issues, product liability, or other claims.

Our business involves the construction (through third-party construction contractors) and operations of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, the sale of fuel cell systems, and the sale and maintenance of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts, which exposes us to the inherent potential product safety, product liability, and similar claims associated with electrical products and products using hydrogen or hydrogen-enriched reformed fuels. Certain material safety risks include:

        Hydrogen has a broad flammability range in air, making it more likely to ignite compared to many other gases.

        Hydrogen is often stored under high pressure, high-pressure systems can pose risks of mechanical failure or rupture, potentially leading to catastrophic accidents.

        In liquid form, hydrogen is stored at cryogenic temperatures, which can cause severe freeze burns if the liquid comes into contact with the skin.

        Hydrogen can cause embrittlement in certain metals, particularly those used in pipelines, storage tanks, and other infrastructure, which weakens the material, increasing the risk of cracks and leaks.

        Hydrogen is odorless, colorless, and invisible in its natural state, making it difficult to detect without specialized sensors, which further increases the risks listed above.

        Other general product safety risks in operating the fuel cell forklifts.

        The location selection of hydrogen facilities does not use scientific analysis to determine the safety distance, which may lead to noise and vibration during the construction and operation of hydrogen facilities, which may have an impact on the physical and mental health of surrounding communities.

        Hydrogen business operation may increase nearby traffic pressure, leading to traffic congestion and an increased risk of traffic accidents.

        The irrational layout of the hydrogen production system may lead to safety risks in ineffective event control, personnel evacuation or emergency response in case of emergencies.

        The failure of the detection and alarm system, emergency stop system, emergency cut-off device and their interlocking of the hydrogen production system may lead to physical explosions or fires, chemical explosions and other risks in the hydrogen production system.

        The production equipment, special equipment and safety accessories, as well as instruments and meters, may not work properly, fail, or experience performance degradation due to lack of regular inspection and maintenance or other external forces, resulting in equipment and facility damage, hydrogen leakage, combustion and explosion risks.

        Hydrogen vehicles safety risks may be caused by internal hydrogen supply pipeline leaks, which may lead to fire or explosion.

        Safety risks may be caused by irregular annual inspections of pressure gauges, safety valves, and hydrogen cylinders which may lead to failure of hydrogen vehicle function.

Any incidents involving our products or other hydrogen-based products could severely hinder market acceptance and demand for our hydrogen fuel cell products. Involvement in litigation could lead to significant expenses, adversely affecting our product development and sales, and diverting the attention of our technical and management personnel, regardless of the litigation outcome. Additionally, we may be liable for damages that exceed our insurance coverage. We also cannot predict whether we will be able to procure insurance on acceptable terms.

Our business and anticipated business are capital-intensive, and our future sources of financing are uncertain.

In conducting our current business, we incur large amount of expenses in procuring equipment for building hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, and OEM services for producing fuel cell systems and fuel cell forklifts. In addition, as we plan to expand our business, we anticipate the need for significant capital, especially for building and operating the Giga Plant.

Currently, we largely rely on capital injections from our shareholders to fund our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure sufficient and timely capital injections from our shareholders in the future, and any continued reliance on shareholder capital injections may expose us to several risks. Reliance on shareholder capital injections may be perceived negatively by the market as a sign of financial instability or insufficient operational cash flow, leading to decreased investor confidence and adversely impacting our ability to raise funds through other means. Frequent or significant capital injections may strain our relationships with existing shareholders, especially if they are burdened by continuous funding requests, which could lead to dissatisfaction among shareholders and affect their willingness to support future funding needs. We also cannot guarantee that we will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations or secure alternative financing with terms commercially reasonable or meet our expectations.

Any inability to obtain necessary funding from our shareholders or through our operations or alternative financing sources could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

If we are unable to obtain or renew certain approvals, licenses, permits, or certifications required for our business, it could have a significant adverse impact on our operations.

We are subject to various laws and regulations that require us to obtain and maintain multiple approvals, licenses, permits, or certifications from different authorities to operate our business, including without limitation, hazardous chemicals business license, gas business license, and gas cylinder filling license. If we fail to obtain the necessary approvals, licenses, permits, or certifications for our operations, we may face sanctions or other enforcement actions. Relevant regulatory authorities could order us to suspend our operations, or we might need to undertake capital expenditures for corrective measures or other remedial actions, which could have a significant adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and operating performance.

In addition, some of these approvals, licenses, permits, and certifications may be subject to periodic renewals and/or re-evaluations by the relevant authorities, and the standards for such renewals and/or re-evaluations may change from time to time. While we are committed to applying for renewals and/or re-evaluations of these approvals, licenses, permits, and certifications as required by applicable laws and regulations, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in obtaining such renewals and/or re-evaluations. If we are unable to obtain the required renewals and/or re-evaluations or to maintain all necessary approvals, licenses, permits, or certifications for our business operations, it could severely hinder our business and impede our ability to continue operating, which may have a significant adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and operating performance.

We may also be required to obtain additional approvals, permits, licenses, or certifications for our existing business due to the enactment of new regulations, changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and regulations. We cannot guarantee that we will successfully obtain these additional approvals, permits, licenses, or certifications. If we are unable to obtain the necessary additional approvals, permits, licenses, or certifications, it may restrict our business operations, reduce our revenue, and/or increase our costs, which could materially diminish our profitability and prospects.

Failure to obtain, or the reduction or cancellation of the government subsidies may adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we received financial subsidies from certain PRC government agencies in the amount of $101,071 and $142,312, respectively. Government subsidies are important to fund our operations and meet our capital expenditure needs. Provision of the government subsidies may be discretionary and subject to selection criteria and on-going requirements set by local governments, which we may not meet in the future. Additionally, local governments may shift their focus over time from supporting the hydrogen industry to other sectors. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain any government subsidies in the future. The failure to obtain or the reduction or cancellation of government subsidies may adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects.

Global inflationary pressures could negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.

We face two types of inflationary pressures: a general pressure from inflation-related economic slowdowns and a specific pressure from the inflation of fuel prices. First, while inflation could slow down the global economy and economic activity in China, thus potentially decreasing the demand for hydrogen energy solutions, this risk has not materialized so far. Economic activity in China continues to show resilience, supporting the growth of the hydrogen industry. Second, the inflation episode of 2022, triggered by the conflict in Ukraine and the resulting increase in fossil fuel prices, has indirectly impacted the hydrogen industry. As fossil fuel prices rise, industries and consumers increasingly seek alternative energy sources like hydrogen. While this shift could drive up the demand for our hydrogen products, it also increases our operational costs, such as production costs and supply chain expenses, due to higher energy prices. Our efforts to develop and expand our hydrogen business line are ongoing, but inflationary pressures in the energy market could affect our cost structures and pricing strategies, thereby impacting our profitability.

Increases in labor costs and employee benefits may adversely affect our business and profitability.

Labor costs in China have risen in recent years as a result of social and economic development including the increasing inflation. Average wages in China are expected to continue increasing. We may also need to increase our total compensation packages to attract and retain experienced personnel to achieve our business objectives. In addition, we are required by the PRC laws and regulations to pay various statutory employee benefits, including pension, housing fund, and insurance, to designated government authorities for the benefits of our employees. We expect that our labor costs, including wages and employee benefits, will continue to increase. Our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected as a result of any material increase in our labor costs.

We face intense competition in the markets we operate in, and some of our competitors may have greater resources or brand recognition than us.

We face intense competition in the hydrogen industry in China. The competition can take place in various aspects including quality of product and service, comprehensiveness of product and service offerings, brand recognition and reputation, technology proficiency, internal operational efficiency, customer service and retention, safety management and control, and knowledge of governmental policies and regulations.

Some of our current and potential competitors, including large state-owned enterprises and international corporations, may have greater financial, technological, and marketing resources than we do, and may be able to offer services that we do not currently have and may not offer in the future. The disruption of business cooperation with major partners or technological lag could cause us to lose our competitive edge. If we are unable to compete effectively against and stay ahead of our competitors, we may lose customers and our financial results may be materially and negatively affected.

We are subject to credit risks from our customers.

We typically grant our customers certain period of payment days for goods sold and services rendered, which is typically not secured. While we assess customers’ creditworthiness and monitor their outstanding balances on a going basis, there is no assurance that income receivable by us will not be defaulted or not be subject to disputes with our

57

Table of Contents

clients and partners. Given the scale of our clients and the negotiating positions they enjoy, in case of dispute we are typically in a less favorable position to succeed in recovering the account receivables and our financial position and results of operations may be negatively impacted as a result.

We may face general risks associated with maintaining large balances of accounts receivable and accounts payable.

As of December 31, 2024, our total accounts receivable (including accounts receivable due from related parties) amounted to approximately $41.0 million, representing 85.6% of our total assets, while our total accounts payable (including accounts payable due from related parties) totaled approximately $34.6 million, accounting for 85.1% of our total liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, our total accounts receivable (including accounts receivable due from related parties) was approximately $7.6 million, representing 34.7% of our total assets, while our total accounts payable (including accounts payable due from related parties) totaled $15.8 million, accounting for 89.6% of our total liabilities. Our accounts receivable mainly include payments to be made by our customers, and our accounts payable mainly include payments to be made to our suppliers.

A substantial portion of our accounts receivable is concentrated among a limited number of customers. Any deterioration in the financial condition of these customers or delays in payment could result in significant bad debt expenses, adversely impacting our financial results. Delayed collections of receivables can strain our cash flow, limiting our ability to invest in growth opportunities or meet our own financial obligations. This could necessitate additional borrowing, potentially increasing our interest expenses and leverage. A high level of accounts payable can also strain our cash flow. Adverse changes in payment terms from suppliers or our failure to make payments timely could lead to disruptions in the supply chain and affect our ability to procure necessary products and services, impacting operational efficiency. Delays in payment or disputes with suppliers can also harm our reputation or relationships with suppliers, affecting future business opportunities.

These risks, if not managed effectively, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

We are subject to risks in managing inventory.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, our inventory was approximately $0.7 million and $7.3 million, representing 1.22% and 33.3% of our total assets, respectively. Our inventory mainly includes fuel cell systems, and fuel cell forklifts. These products are manufactured by our suppliers and are typically transported directly from our suppliers to our customers. Prior to the transportation, these products may be temporarily stored at the suppliers’ warehouse and during such transition period, will be recorded as our inventory. We may also keep certain inventory of fuel cell forklifts to satisfy urgent sales and leasing needs.

We cannot guarantee that our inventory will not be damaged or impaired, as our storage may encounter unforeseen events. Therefore, ineffective inventory management could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results. Additionally, if the net realizable value of our inventory declines before we sell it, we will need to recognize an impairment on our inventory. These could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and operating results.

We may fail to attract or retain an experienced management team and qualified personnel.

Our continued success depends on our ability to attract and retain an experienced management team and other employees with the requisite expertise and skills. Our ability to do so is influenced by a variety of factors, including the structure of the compensation package that we formulate and the competitive market position of our overall compensation package. Our management team and skilled employees may leave us or we may terminate their employment at any time. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our management team and skilled employees or find suitable or comparable replacements on a timely basis. Moreover, if any of our management team or skilled employees leaves us or joins a competitor, we may lose customers. In addition, former employees may request certain compensation arising from their resignation or retirement, which we typically negotiate on a case-by-case basis. However, if we are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution with such employees, they may take other actions including, but not limited to, initiating legal proceedings. Such legal proceedings may require us to pay damages, divert our management’s attention, cause us to incur costs and harm our reputation. Each of these foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are highly dependent on the services of Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder.

We are highly dependent on the performance, expertise and continuity of Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder. Any adverse personal situation affecting Ms. Xia Ma, such as changes in marital status, health issues, or other personal circumstances, could significantly impact her ability to effectively manage and lead us. Any of such situations or the loss or departure of Ms. Xia Ma could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to “emerging growth companies” will make our Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions and relief from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” In particular, while we are an “emerging growth company” (1) we will not be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) we will be exempt from any rules that may be adopted by the PCAOB requiring mandatory audit firm rotations or a supplement to the auditor’s report on financial statements, (3) we will be subject to reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and (4) we will not be required to hold nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We currently intend to take advantage of the reduced disclosure requirements regarding executive compensation, including the exemptions from the advisory vote requirements and executive compensation disclosures under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Customer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act, and the exemption from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards, meaning that the company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

We may remain an “emerging growth company” until the fiscal year-end following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the Business Combination, though we may cease to be an “emerging growth company” earlier under certain circumstances, including (1) if we become a large accelerated filer, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 12b-2, (2) if our gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion in any fiscal year, or (3) if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible notes in any three year period. The exact implications of the JOBS Act are still subject to interpretations and guidance by the SEC and other regulatory agencies, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to take advantage of all of the benefits of the JOBS Act. In addition, investors may find the Pubco Ordinary Shares less attractive if we rely on the exemptions and relief granted by the JOBS Act. If some investors find the Pubco Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the Pubco Ordinary Shares and our stock price may decline and/or become more volatile.

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary information, we may lose our competitive edge and our brand, reputation and operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Our corporate name, trademarks, patents, copyrights, and other intellectual properties are important to our business. We believe our reputation and brand are associated with our corporate name, and our trademarks, and that this association has contributed to the success of our business. Our corporate name may be damaged if it is used by third parties whose reputation or brand is not associated with quality, or if such third parties are otherwise the subject of any adverse publicity. In addition, other parties may use or register trademarks that look similar to our registered trademarks under certain circumstances, and may cause confusion among consumers. Policing unauthorized use of our corporate name and trademarks can be difficult and expensive. If any of the foregoing happens, the value of our trademarks and customer recognition of our brand may be adversely affected.

In addition, litigation may be necessary to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation may be costly and may divert management’s attention away from our business. In addition, we may be required, or we may decide to temporarily stop utilizing the underlying technology covered by our intellectual property rights regardless of the outcome of the litigations. An adverse determination in

59

Table of Contents

any such litigation would impair our intellectual property rights and may harm our business, prospects and reputation. Enforcement of judgments in China is uncertain, and even if we are successful in litigation, it may not provide us with an effective remedy. In addition, we have no insurance coverage against litigation costs and would have to bear all costs arising from such litigation to the extent we are unable to recover them from other parties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of computer system failures, cyber-attacks or deficiencies in our or third parties’ cybersecurity.

We are increasingly dependent upon information technology systems, infrastructure and data to operate our business. We use “Hydrogen Energy Network Data Operations Center”, a digital platform developed by certain third-party supplier for us, to manage and monitor the operation of the hydrogen production plants, hydrogen refueling stations, and hydrogen fuel cell forklifts. See “Business of United Hydrogen — Business Model — Hydrogen Energy Solutions,” and “Business of United Hydrogen — Business Model — Hydrogen Commercial Applications.” In the ordinary course of business, we may collect, store and transmit confidential information, including, but not limited to, information related to our intellectual property and proprietary business information, and personal information of our personnel or our customers’ personnel. Although we implement certain internal security and business continuity measures (such as firewall and data backup), our information technology and other internal infrastructure systems may breakdown, incur damage or be interrupted by system malfunctions, natural disasters, terrorism, war or telecommunication and electrical failures, as well as by inadvertent or intentional security breaches, any of which may result in civil legal proceedings brought by data subject or enforcement actions initiated by regulatory agencies.

Our limited insurance coverage could expose us to significant costs and business disruption.

Our business or anticipated business may face various operational risks, including (i) production interruptions caused by operational errors, power outages, equipment failures, and other risks; (ii) operational restrictions imposed by environmental or other regulatory requirements; (iii) social, political, and labor unrest; (iv) environmental or industrial accidents; and (v) catastrophic events such as fires, earthquakes, explosions, floods, or other natural disasters. These risks can lead to, among other things, damage and destruction of property or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, financial losses, and legal liabilities. The occurrence of any of these events may result in operational disruptions and cause significant losses or substantial liabilities.

We may not have sufficient insurance coverage for the aforementioned operational risks. We purchase insurances for our personnel, motor vehicles, equipment, and machinery, but there is no guarantee that our insurance will be adequate to cover such major incidents. If we incur significant losses or liabilities and our insurance does not cover or is insufficient to cover such losses or liabilities, our business, financial condition, and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

We historically experienced operating losses or profit and there is no guarantee that we may maintain its profitability and will not experience losses again.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we achieved a net profit of $0.1 million, primarily due to an increase of revenues from providing refueling station solutions, and sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we achieved a net profit of $0.9 million, primarily due to an increase of revenues from provision of hydrogen gas to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations, and sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems. We had experienced an operating loss prior to 2023.

Despite this improvement, we cannot guarantee that we will maintain our profitability. We may face challenges in increasing our revenue by securing new customers or launching new products or services. Additionally, certain expenses, such as expenses in connection with the research and development of new technology and the acquisition of key resources in hydrogen value chain, may continue to increase. We may also encounter higher costs associated with growth, the launch of new products, and operating as a public company.

Our efforts to expand our business and introduce new products have been, and may continue to be, more costly than anticipated. We may not be able to increase our revenue sufficiently to offset these increased operating expenses and necessary investments. New products may not succeed as expected. As a result, we may incur significant losses in the future again due to various reasons, including the other risks described herein, as well as unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays, and other presently unknown events or risks. If we continue to struggle to achieve and maintain consistent profitability, this would materially and adversely affect the value of our business and securities.

Our business was adversely affected by the outbreak of COVID-19 and a COVID-19 resurgence or occurrence of a similar pandemic may once again adversely affect our business and result of operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the global economy. To curb the spread of the pandemic since late July 2021, the Chinese government implemented various measures such as lockdowns, travel restrictions, quarantines, and business shutdowns. Meanwhile, governments outside of China suspended or significantly reduced the movement of people, goods, and services to and from China. The COVID-19 pandemic has already had, and may continue to have, long-term adverse effects on China’s economic and social conditions, which could indirectly affect our industry, leading to project delays and shortages of labor and raw materials. The COVID-19 pandemic materially and adversely affected our business during the period from March 2022 to March 2023. During such period, we reduced the business travel and business development activities of our sales personnel in most parts of China and confined most business communication to remote online platforms, which negatively affected our business communication efficiency; some of our customers’ projects were delayed or suspended to a certain extent, which negatively affected our project delivery timeline; and some of our suppliers delayed or cancelled their shipments, which in turn negatively affected our delivery of projects to customers.

We cannot determine when the global COVID-19 pandemic might suddenly resurge. We cannot assure you that a similar pandemic will not occur again. If such a COVID-19 resurgence or a similar pandemic occurs, it could have a significant adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

We face risks related to natural disasters, health epidemics and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt our operations.

In addition to the impact of COVID-19, our business could be materially and adversely affected by natural disasters, health epidemics or other public safety concerns affecting China. Natural disasters may give rise to server interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect our ability to operate our platform and provide services and solutions. In recent years, there have been outbreaks of epidemics in China and globally, such as H1N1 flu, avian flu or another epidemic. Our business operations could be disrupted by any of these epidemics. In addition, our results of operations could be adversely affected to the extent that any health epidemic harms the Chinese economy in general. A prolonged outbreak of any of these illnesses or other adverse public health developments in China or elsewhere in the world could have a material adverse effect on our business operations. Such outbreaks could significantly impact the insurance industry, which could severely disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our primary office locations are in Beijing, Jiaxing (Zhejiang Province), Shanghai, Taiyuan (Shanxi Province), and Yinchuan (Ningxia Province). The majority of the Company’s directors, supervisors, and core technical personnel are based in Beijing, Jiaxing, and Shanghai, while the offices in other regions primarily employ middle management and junior staff. Additionally, we engage in the construction and operation management of hydrogen refueling stations across Shanxi, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hebei, Shandong, and Inner Mongolia, with the workforce in these regions primarily composed of middle management and junior employees. We also conduct fuel cell system sales, hydrogen vehicle sales, and leasing activities in Shanghai and Ningxia, where the personnel include directors, supervisors, middle managers, and junior employees. Consequently, if any natural disasters, health epidemics or other public safety concerns were to affect those areas in China, our operation may experience material disruptions, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face risks associated with our plans to market, distribute, and service our products and services internationally.

We plan to market, distribute, and sell our product and service offerings internationally in the future. We have limited experience operating internationally. Our success in international markets will depend, in part, on our abilities to (i) understand the local market and customer needs, (ii) obtain required approvals, licenses, permits, or certifications from local authorities and furnish products or services that meet foreign regulatory and commercial requirements, and (iii) effectively recruit and manage local personnel. Additionally, our planned international operations are subject to other inherent risks, including potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations and intellectual property rights in foreign countries, and could be adversely affected due to, among other things, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political tensions between China and the target international markets, economic instability, acts or threats of terrorism, changes in governmental policies or policies of financial institutions, price controls, fund transfer restrictions, capital controls, taxes, changes in legislation or regulations and other additional developments or

61

restrictive actions over which we will have no control. It may be more difficult and costly than we expect to navigate the different legal, regulatory, economic, social, and political environments. Any of these factors could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC

Changes in China’s economic, political, or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on the business of United Hydrogen and its PRC subsidiaries and following the Business Combination, Pubco, results of operations, financial condition, and the value of Pubco’s securities.

We primarily operate in China, and as a result face significant legal and operational risks and uncertainties in connection with operating business in China. Specifically, our primary offices and operation sites are located across several regions in China, with most of our directors, officers, supervisors, core technical personnel and other employees based in China.

Given this operational footprint, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects are subject to significant influence from the political, economic, social, and regulatory environment in China. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the level of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange, and allocation of resources, all of which could affect our operations. Consequently, any changes in China’s policies or conditions could materially and adversely impact our business and operations.

While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the Chinese government, or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy but may have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations. In addition, in the past, the Chinese government has implemented certain measures, including interest rate adjustments, to control the pace of economic growth. These measures may cause decreased economic activities in China, which may adversely affect our operating results.

United Hydrogen’s, and following the Business Combination, Pubco’s ability to successfully maintain or grow business operations in China depends on various factors, which are beyond its control. These factors include, among others, macroeconomic and other market conditions, political stability, social conditions, measures to control inflation or deflation, changes in the rate or method of taxation, changes in laws, regulations and administrative directives or their interpretation, and changes in industry policies. If United Hydrogen or Pubco fails to take timely and appropriate measures to adapt to any of the changes or challenges, United Hydrogen’s, and following the Business Combination, Pubco’s business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

The Chinese government may promulgate laws, regulations or policies that seek to increase scrutiny of, or further revise, the current regulatory regime in certain industries or in certain activities, and may intervene or influence the specific industries that it deems to be in the best interest of China, which could result in a material change in United Hydrogen’s operations and cause the value of United Hydrogen’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

As with all standing governments of a sovereign state, the PRC government has the proper authority to promulgate laws, regulations or policies that seek to impose increased scrutiny over, or further revise, the current regulatory regime in certain industries or in certain activities it deems to be in the best interest of China. United Hydrogen is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and has subsidiaries with operations in the PRC. Decisions made by the PRC government may result in a material adverse change in United Hydrogen’s and its PRC subsidiaries’ operations and cause the value of United Hydrogen’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Substantially all of our operations are located in the PRC. The PRC government may choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion, and the regulations to which any of our subsidiaries are subject can change rapidly. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of new and existing laws and regulations in China can be uncertain. Additionally, these laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, and may not align with our subsidiaries’ current policies and practices. Consequently, the Company’s business segments may face various government and regulatory oversight in the provinces where they operate. The

62

Table of Contents

Company may be regulated by multiple political and regulatory entities, including local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations, or face penalties for any failure to comply.

Compliance with new laws and regulations in China may be costly, and related government actions, inquiries, or investigations could delay or impede our subsidiaries’ development, result in negative publicity or increase our subsidiaries’ operating costs, require significant management time and attention, and subject us to remedies, administrative penalties and even criminal liabilities that may harm our subsidiaries’ business, including fines assessed for our subsidiaries current or historical operations, or demands or orders that our subsidiaries modify or even cease their business practices.

The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and the value of our Ordinary Shares. Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. For example, the PRC government has recently published new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries. United Hydrogen, albeit not engaging in such industries, cannot rule out the possibility that the PRC government will in the future release regulations or policies regarding United Hydrogen’s industry that could require United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries to seek permission from Chinese authorities to continue operating, which may adversely affect United Hydrogen’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

In recent years, the Chinese governmental authorities have issued a series of guidelines for the hydrogen energy industry, providing a framework for the deployment of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations and the integration of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. However, as the regulatory framework and governmental policies relating to the hydrogen energy industry in the PRC are relatively new and still evolving, such governmental policies may be subject to limitations or uncertainties beyond our control and may be adjusted or changed from time to time by the Chinese government. Any reduction or elimination of favorable industry policies issued by the relevant government due to policy changes or otherwise, or any governmental guidance that diminishes the demand for the hydrogen energy industry, is likely to weaken the overall competitiveness of the hydrogen energy industry. In such cases, our business and operating conditions may be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, the local governments have implemented safety and regulatory standards for hydrogen production, storage, and transportation to ensure the safe development of the hydrogen industry. We cannot predict how regulations and policies regarding the hydrogen industry will change. If the Chinese government strengthens its control over the hydrogen energy industry via regulations and policies, such regulations or policies may require United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries to seek additional permits or approvals from Chinese authorities to continue operations. This could have an adverse effect on United Hydrogen’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Therefore, these regulatory measures may significantly limit or completely hinder Pubco’s ability to offer or continue to offer securities to you and cause the value of Pubco’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Any legal or regulatory changes that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact our subsidiaries’ ability to conduct their business could decrease demand for their services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require them to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject them to additional liabilities. To the extent that any new or more stringent measures are implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected, and the value of the Ordinary Shares could decrease or become worthless.

Accordingly, our results of operations, financial condition and prospects are influenced by economic, political and legal developments in China. As the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industrial development, allocation of natural and other resources, production, pricing and management of currency, we cannot predict whether changes in China’s economic or social conditions or government policies will have any adverse effect on our current or future business, financial condition or results of operations.

Furthermore, the PRC government has also recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and foreign investments in China-based companies. Any such actions may adversely affect and/or cause a material change to United Hydrogen’s, and following the Business Combination, Pubco’s operations, and following the Business Combination, result in a material change in the value of Pubco’s securities.

Our ability to successfully expand business operations in the PRC depends on a number of factors, including macro-economic and other market conditions. Demand for our services and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected by the following factors: changes in economic or social conditions of the PRC; changes in laws, regulations, and administrative directives or the interpretation thereof; measures which may be introduced to control inflation or deflation; and changes in the rate or method of taxation.

Given the PRC government’s significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business, the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Our operations are primarily located in the PRC. The Chinese government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene or influence our operations at any time. Government actions, inquiries, or investigations may delay or hinder the development of our subsidiaries in the PRC, which could also demand considerable management resources and attention, and expose us to various consequences, including corrective measures, administrative fines, and potentially criminal charges. These could negatively affect our subsidiaries’ business, including penalties for current or past operations, and there may be demands or directives for our subsidiaries to alter or halt their business practices. Our business could be interrupted or we could be subject to liabilities that may materially and adversely affect the results of our operations and the value of your investment.

The PRC government also exercises control over China’s economic growth through strategically allocating resources, controlling the payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to selected industries or companies. Furthermore, the PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such intervention in or influence on our business operations or action to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities, once taken by the PRC government, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and the value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, or significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless.

If the PRC government adopts more stringent standards with respect to certain areas such as corporate social responsibilities, we may incur increased compliance costs or become subject to additional restrictions in our operations. Failure to meet these requirements may result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Moreover, if the PRC government takes certain measures or strategically allocates resources to promote economic growth, even if such actions are beneficial to the Chinese economy as a whole, we cannot predict or guarantee that such measures will not have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations and unexpected changes in policies, rules, and regulations in China with little advance notice, could limit the legal protection available to you and us, which could result in a material adverse change in our operations and/or the value of Ordinary Shares.

Our principal operating subsidiaries are incorporated under and governed by the laws of the PRC. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which legal cases have limited value as precedents. In the late 1970s, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general, such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. The legislation over the past five decades has significantly increased the protection afforded to various forms of foreign or private-sector investment in China. We are subject to various PRC laws and regulations generally applicable to companies in China. Since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, however, the interpretations of many laws, regulations, and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations, and rules involves uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. Moreover, some regulations and policies in the PRC may be issued with little advance notice, or drafts for public comment may be available for public comment only for a short period of time. In some cases, even after the public comment period concludes, it remains uncertain when the finalized regulation will be officially published and take effect. Consequently, we may not be able to determine whether we are required to comply with the requirements set forth in the Draft for Comment and act promptly, potentially exposing us to penalties for fines as a result of our failure to comply with the relevant requirements in the finalized regulation in the first instance. Uncertainties due to evolving laws and regulations could also impede the ability of a China-based company, such as us, to obtain or maintain permits or licenses required to conduct business in China. The absence of required permits or licenses, governmental authorities could impose material sanctions or penalties on us. For more detailed discussion, please see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to United Hydrogen’s Business and Industry — If we fail to maintain an effective quality and safety control system, it could have a significant adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial condition, and operating performance” and “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — Our operations in China face regulatory and licensing risks inherent in the development and operation of hydrogen-powered vehicles and infrastructure.

Similarly, relevant local government departments may impose new, specific regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that may require additional expenditures and efforts for us to ensure our PRC subsidiaries’ compliance with such regulations or interpretations. As such, we may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which we operate in China. Our PRC subsidiaries could subject to regulations by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. They may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. Furthermore, PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms. The interpretations of many laws, regulations, and rules are not always uniform, and enforcement of these laws, regulations, and rules involves uncertainties. As a result, it may be difficult for us to accurately predict the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we otherwise would be entitled to. The PRC legal system is based in part on government policies, internal rules, and regulations, which generally do not have retroactive effect unless special provisions are enacted for the purpose of better protecting the rights and interests of citizens, legal persons and other organizations. As a result, we may not be aware of violations of these policies and rules until sometime after they occur. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations. In addition, we cannot predict the effects of future developments in the PRC legal system on our business operations, including the promulgation of new laws, or changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement practices thereof. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us and our investors. Moreover, some litigations in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and management attention, which could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

Because our primary operations are in China, our business is subject to a significant degree of the complex and rapidly evolving laws and regulations there.

As a company having primary business operations in China, we are subject to the laws and regulations of China, which can be complex and evolve rapidly. The PRC government has the power to exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business in China, and the regulations to which our business in China is subject may change rapidly and with little advance notice to us or our shareholders. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of new and existing laws and regulations in the PRC are often uncertain. In addition, these laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, and inconsistently with our current policies and practices. New laws, regulations, and other government directives in the PRC may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

        delay or impede our development in China;

        result in negative publicity or increase our operating costs in China;

        require significant management time and attention; and

        subject us to remedies, administrative penalties, and even criminal liabilities that may harm our business, including fines assessed for our current or historical operations, or demands or orders to modify or even cease our business practices in China.

The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or manner in which we conduct our business in China and could require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance, could increase costs and expenses, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals, or certificates, or subject us to additional liabilities. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are required to be implemented, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected and the value of our shares could significantly decline.

If Pubco becomes directly subject to the scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed Chinese companies, it may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm its business operations, stock price, and reputation.

U.S. public companies that have substantial operations in China have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators, and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity has centered on financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes,

65

Table of Contents

a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S.-listed Chinese companies sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, have become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity will have on Pubco, its business, and the price of Pubco Ordinary Shares. If Pubco becomes the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend ourselves. This situation will be costly and time-consuming and could distract our management from developing its business. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our business operations will be severely affected and you could sustain a significant decline in the value of Pubco Ordinary Shares.

The current tension in international trade, particularly with regard to U.S. and China trade policies, may adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Although cross-border business may not be an area of our focus, if we plan to expand our business internationally in the future, any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as capital controls or tariffs, may affect the demand for our services, impact our competitive position, or prevent us from being able to conduct business in certain countries. If any new tariffs, legislation, or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated, such changes could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Recently, there have been heightened tensions in international economic relations, such as the one between the United States and China. For example, the U.S. has proposed to impose multiple rounds of tariffs on a wide range of goods imported from multiple countries, including China, and China has responded with the similar tariffs. Since February 2025, the U.S. administration has proposed to increase the total tariff level for imported Chinese goods to 125% and additional tariff increase could be imposed as the trade tension between the two countries continues to heighten. Correspondingly, China has responded by hiking its levies on U.S. imports to 125% from 34%. Historically, tariffs have led to increased trade and political tensions, between the U.S. and China, as well as between the U.S. and other countries. Political tensions as a result of trade policies could reduce trade volume, cross-border investment, technological exchange, and other economic activities between major economies, which may result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and our operations. On May 12, 2025, according to the Joint Statement on China-U.S. Economic and Trade Meeting in Geneva, both the U.S. and China commit to take the following actions by May 14, 2025: (1) The U.S. will (i) modify the application of the additional ad valorem rate of duty on articles of China (including articles of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Macau Special Administrative Region) set forth in Executive Order 14257 of April 2, 2025, by suspending 24 percentage points of that rate for an initial period of 90 days, while retaining the remaining ad valorem rate of 10 percent on those articles pursuant to the terms of said Order; and (ii) removing the modified additional ad valorem rates of duty on those articles imposed by Executive Order 14259 of April 8, 2025 and Executive Order 14266 of April 9, 2025. (2) China will (i) modify accordingly the application of the additional ad valorem rate of duty on articles of the U.S. set forth in Announcement of the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council No. 4 of 2025, by suspending 24 percentage points of that rate for an initial period of 90 days, while retaining the remaining additional ad valorem rate of 10 percent on those articles, and removing the modified additional ad valorem rates of duty on those articles imposed by Announcement of the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council No. 5 of 2025 and Announcement of the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council No. 6 of 2025; and (ii) adopt all necessary administrative measures to suspend or remove the non-tariff countermeasures taken against the U.S. since April 2, 2025. However, we cannot predict whether future trade policies will change or whether such changes will have an adverse impact on our business, financial situation and operations.

Although the direct impact of the current international trade tension, and any change of such tension, on the industries in which we operate is uncertain, the negative impact on general, economic, political and social conditions may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to fully comply with PRC labor-related laws may expose us to potential penalties.

Our operations in China are subject to stringent requirements under the PRC Labor Law and the PRC Labor Contract Law, which regulate workplace safety, labor contracts, working hours, and wage standards. Non-compliance with these laws could result in significant liabilities, penalties, and reputational harm. According to the PRC Labor Law, promulgated on July 5, 1994 and last amended on December 29, 2018, enterprises and institutions shall establish and improve their system of workplace safety and sanitation, strictly abide by state rules and standards on workplace safety,

66

Table of Contents

and educate laborers in labor safety and sanitation in China. Labor safety and sanitation facilities shall comply with national standards. Enterprises and institutions shall provide laborers with safe workplace and sanitation conditions that are in compliance with state stipulations and the relevant articles of labor protection. The PRC Labor Contract Law, which was implemented on January 1, 2008 and amended on December 28, 2012, primarily governs the rights and duties of employees and employers, including the establishment, performance, and termination of labor contracts. Pursuant to the PRC Labor Contract Law, labor contracts shall be concluded in writing if labor relationships are to be or have been established between enterprises or institutions and the laborers. Enterprises and institutions are prohibited from forcing laborers to work beyond the stipulated work time limit, and employers shall pay laborers for overtime work in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. In addition, labor wages shall not be lower than local standards on minimum wages and shall be paid to laborers in a timely manner. Any inability to meet these requirements could lead to legal disputes, increased labor costs, and potential interruptions in our workforce.

Pursuant to (i) the Regulation of Insurance for Labor Injury, enacted on January 1, 2004 and amended on December 20, 2010, (ii) the Provisional Measures for Maternity Insurance of Employees of Corporations implemented on January 1, 1995, (iii) the Decisions on the Establishment of a Unified Program for Basic Old-Aged Pension Insurance for Employees of Corporations of the State Council issued on July 16, 1997, (iv) the Decisions on the Establishment of the Medical Insurance Program for Urban Workers of the State Council promulgated on December 14, 1998, (v) the Unemployment Insurance Measures promulgated on January 22, 1999, and (vi) the Social Insurance Law of the PRC, implemented on July 1, 2011 and amended on December 29, 2018, enterprises are obliged to provide their employees in China with welfare schemes covering pension insurance, unemployment insurance, maternity insurance, labor injury insurance, medical insurance (collectively, “social insurance”), and housing fund plans. These payments are made to local administrative authorities and any employer that fails to contribute may be fined and ordered to make up within a prescribed time limit. For more details, please see “Business of United Hydrogen — Governmental Regulations; Permits and License — Regulations Relating to Employment.”

In accordance with the Regulations on the Management of Housing Provident Funds, which was promulgated by the State Council on April 3, 1999 and last amended on March 24, 2019, enterprises must register at the competent managing center for housing provident funds and upon the examination by such managing center of housing provident funds, these enterprises are required to complete procedures for opening an account at the relevant bank for the deposit of employees’ housing provident funds. Enterprises are also required to pay and deposit housing provident funds on behalf of their employees in full and in a timely manner.

Certain of our PRC subsidiaries have not made adequate social insurance and housing fund contributions for all employees. For individual employees, the difference in the contribution base ranges from RMB 4,000 to RMB 7,000. These PRC subsidiaries may be required to make up for the shortfall in the social insurance contributions as well as to pay late fees at the rate of 0.05% per day of the outstanding amount from the due date. If they fail to make up for the shortfalls within the prescribed time limit, the relevant administrative authorities will impose a fine of one to three times the outstanding amount upon them. With respect to housing fund plans, certain of our PRC subsidiaries may be required to pay and/or deposit housing funds in full and on time within the prescribed time limit. If they fail to do so, relevant authorities could file applications to competent courts for compulsory enforcement of payment and deposit. The company is gradually adjusting the social insurance contribution base and plans to make full contributions upon receiving requests from the relevant authorities.

Certain of our PRC subsidiaries have paid social insurance and housing fund for several employees through a third-party agency. Since the third-party agency is not the factual employer of these employees, our PRC subsidiaries may be required to pay the social insurance and housing fund again for these employees by themselves and compensate the employees for their loss arising from our failure to pay the social insurance and housing fund by themselves.

Although we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanctions regarding such late fees or fines, the interpretation and implementation of labor-related laws and regulations are constantly evolving and may be amended from time to time. If the relevant PRC authorities determine that our PRC subsidiaries shall make supplemental social insurance and housing fund contributions or that they are subject to fines and legal sanctions in relation to their failure to make social insurance and housing fund contributions in full for their employees, the business, financial condition, and results of operations of our PRC subsidiaries and in turn of us may be adversely affected.

Cash or asset held in the PRC may face restrictions on transfer outside the country due to Chinese government regulations, limiting Pubco’s ability to use these funds for operations, dividend distribution, or capital contributions without complying with Chinese laws, including foreign exchange controls, statutory reserve requirements and taxation.

To the extent cash or assets are held in the PRC or by a Chinese entity, they may not be readily available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on Pubco’s ability to transfer cash or assets by the PRC government. For example, Pubco’s subsidiaries in the PRC are permitted to pay dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Additionally, each of Pubco’s PRC subsidiaries is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Companies in the PRC are also required to further set aside a portion of their after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at their discretion. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends; the PRC subsidiaries are required to complete certain procedural requirements related to foreign exchange control in order to make dividend payments in foreign currencies; A withholding tax, at the rate of 10% or lower, is payable by the PRC subsidiaries on dividends paid to non-resident enterprises; approval from or registration with competent PRC government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. Without the fulfillment of these procedures, United Hydrogen and its PRC subsidiaries may not make any distributions to Pubco and/or its shareholders, which could result in significantly restricted liquidity of Pubco’s shares and a substantial decline in their value.

In utilizing the proceeds from this Business Combination, as an offshore holding company, Pubco is permitted under Chinese laws and regulations to provide funding to its PRC subsidiaries only through loans or capital contributions and to its affiliated entities only through loans, subject to applicable government reporting, registration and approvals. However, loans by Pubco to its PRC subsidiaries to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with the local counterpart of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of China, or SAFE, and capital contributions to its PRC subsidiaries are subject to the requirement of making necessary registration with competent Chinese governmental authorities. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China — PRC regulation of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may restrict or prevent us from using the proceeds of the Business Combination to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries.

Our operations in China face regulatory and licensing risks inherent in the development and operation of hydrogen-powered vehicles and infrastructure.

Our focus on hydrogen infrastructure solutions, including evaluating, designing, and constructing hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, is subject to multiple regulations due to the hazardous nature of hydrogen. According to the Measures for the Administration of Operating Licenses for Hazardous Chemicals, effective since July 1, 2015, the Safety Production Law of the People’s Republic of China, effective since December 01, 2014, the Regulations on the Safe Management of Hazardous Chemicals, effective since December 2013, and the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015 edition), hydrogen is classified as a hazardous chemical, requiring a hazardous chemicals business license and potentially other permits under the Measures for the Administration of Hazardous Chemicals Business Licenses, the Work Safety Law, the Regulations on the Safety Administration of Hazardous Chemicals, and the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals. Non-compliance with these regulations could result in penalties, business interruptions, or legal liabilities. Furthermore, the Measures for the Administration of Gas Business Licenses and the Regulations on the Administration of Urban Gas mandate obtaining a gas business license for gas-related activities. Additionally, the Special Equipment Safety Law and the Regulations on Safety Supervision of Special Equipment require a gas cylinder filling license for entities filling mobile pressure vessels. Failure to secure these licenses could impede our ability to operate hydrogen refueling stations. Meanwhile, some of our future business plans involve transportation, which require a road transportation operation permit under the Regulations on Road Transportation of the People’s Republic of China. Failure to obtain or maintain this permit could subject us to legal penalties, operational disruptions, and the inability to legally conduct transportation services.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our subsidiaries, (i) are not covered by additional requisite permissions or approval requirements from any governmental agency that is required to approve the operations of its PRC subsidiaries which have not already been received, (ii) have received from PRC authorities all requisite licenses, permissions, and approvals needed to engage in the businesses currently conducted in the PRC, and (iii) no such permission or approval has been denied. Apart from the business licenses held by each PRC subsidiaries of us, the

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Pubco owns no material assets other than the equity interests of the First Merger Sub and the Second Merger Sub and it does not operate any business in the PRC. Therefore, none of the Pubco and its subsidiaries are required to undergo or obtain any other procedure or permission from the relevant PRC authorities, including the CAC or any other governmental agency that is required to approve our business operations.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Aimei Health has no subsidiaries and does not conduct business in the PRC. Therefore, it is required to undergo or obtain any other procedure or permission from the relevant PRC authorities, including the CAC or any other governmental agency that is required to approve our business operations.

However, with laws, regulations and related policies continuing to evolve and improve, United Hydrogen may be required to obtain additional licenses, permits, filings or approvals for its business operations in the future. If (i) United Hydrogen or its subsidiaries do not receive or maintain any required permissions or approvals, (ii) United Hydrogen or its subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that certain permissions or approvals have been acquired or are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations or interpretations thereof change and United Hydrogen or its subsidiaries become subject to the requirement of additional licenses, permits, filings or approvals in the future, there is no assurance that United Hydrogen will be able to obtain such licenses, permits, filings or approvals in a timely manner, at a reasonable cost, or at all, and such approvals may be rescinded even if obtained. Any such circumstance could subject United Hydrogen to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against United Hydrogen, and other forms of sanctions, and the United Hydrogen’s business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected, and the value of Pubco Ordinary Shares could significantly decline or become worthless.

The regulatory landscape is further complicated by the fact that each province and city in China has its own regulations for hydrogen refueling stations, with varying qualification requirements. Operating in multiple locations may necessitate obtaining a gas cylinder filling license, hazardous chemicals business license, hazardous materials road transportation permit, and other qualifications. Delays or difficulties in obtaining these licenses and permits due to inconsistent local policies and approval processes could adversely affect our business operations and expansion plans. We cannot assure you that any of these entities will be able to receive clearance of such compliance requirements in

69

Table of Contents

the future in a timely manner, or at all. Any failure of these entities to fully comply with such compliance requirements in the future may cause the PRC subsidiaries to be unable to begin their new businesses or operations in the PRC, subject them to fines, relevant new businesses or operations suspension for rectification, or other sanctions. Moreover, changes in regulatory requirements or stricter enforcement of existing regulations could increase our compliance costs, potentially impacting profitability. Our business may be particularly vulnerable to evolving regulations surrounding hydrogen as a relatively new energy source.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Pubco may be classified as a PRC “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Such classification would likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to Pubco and its non-PRC shareholders and have a material adverse effect on its results of operations and the value of your investment.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”), which became effective in January 2008, promulgated on March 16, 2007 and last amended on December 29, 2018, an enterprise established outside the PRC with “de facto management bodies” within the PRC is considered a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and is generally subject to a uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate on its worldwide income. Under the implementation rules to the EIT Law, a “de facto management body” is defined as a body that has material and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel and human resources, finances, and properties of an enterprise. In April 2009, the State Administration of Taxation (the “SAT”) issued the Circular on Issues Concerning the Identification of Chinese-Controlled Overseas Registered Enterprises as Resident Enterprises in Accordance with the Actual Standards of Organizational Management, or “SAT Circular 82,” which was amended in December 2017. SAT Circular 82 specifies that certain offshore incorporated enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups will be classified as PRC resident enterprises if the following are located or resident in the PRC: senior management personnel and departments that are responsible for daily production, operation, and management; financial and personnel decision-making bodies; key properties, accounting books, company seal, and minutes of board meetings and shareholders’ meetings; and 50% or more of the senior management or directors having voting rights. In addition to SAT Circular 82, the SAT issued the Measures for the Administration of Enterprise Income Tax of Chinese-Controlled Overseas Registered Enterprises as Resident Enterprises (for Trial Implementation), or “SAT Bulletin 45,” which took effect in September 2011 and was last amended in June 2018, to provide more guidance on the implementation of SAT Circular 82 and clarify the reporting and filing obligations of such “Chinese-controlled offshore incorporated resident enterprises.” SAT Bulletin 45 provides procedures and administrative details for the determination of resident status and administration on post-determination matters. Although both SAT Circular 82 and SAT Bulletin 45 only apply to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreign individuals, the determining criteria set forth in SAT Circular 82 and SAT Bulletin 45 may reflect the SAT’s general position on how the “de facto management body” test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises, PRC enterprise groups, or by PRC or foreign individuals.

If the PRC tax authorities determine that the actual management body of Pubco is within the territory of China, Pubco may be deemed to be a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, Pubco will be subject to the uniform 25% enterprise income tax on its worldwide income, which could materially reduce Pubco’s net income. In addition, Pubco will also be subject to PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. Finally, dividends payable by Pubco to its investors and gains on the sale of its shares may become subject to PRC withholding tax, at a rate of 10% in the case of non-PRC enterprises or 20% in the case of non-PRC individuals (in each case, subject to the provisions of any applicable tax treaty), if such gains are deemed to be from PRC sources. It is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of Pubco would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that Pubco is treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Although up to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we have not been notified or informed by the PRC tax authorities that we have been deemed to be resident enterprises for the purpose of the EIT Law, there is no assurance that we will not be deemed to be resident enterprises in the future.

The filing with the CSRC is required in connection with the Business Combination, and we cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain such approval or complete such filing.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated Trial Administrative Measures of the Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Overseas Listing Trial Measures” or the “Trial Measures”) and circulated five supporting guidelines, which became effective on March 31, 2023.

70

Table of Contents

According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, PRC domestic companies that seek to offer and list securities in overseas markets, either indirect or indirect means, are required to fulfill the filing procedure with the CSRC and report relevant information. The Overseas Listing Trial Measures provides that an overseas listing or offering is explicitly prohibited, if any of the following: (1) such securities offering and listing is explicitly prohibited by provisions in laws, administrative regulations and relevant state rules; (2) the intended securities offering and listing may endanger national security as reviewed and determined by competent authorities under the State Council in accordance with law; (3) the domestic company intending to make the securities offering and listing, or its controlling shareholder(s) and the actual controller, have committed relevant crimes such as corruption, bribery, embezzlement, misappropriation of property or undermining the order of the socialist market economy during the latest three years; (4) the domestic company intending to make the securities offering and listing is currently under investigations for suspicion of criminal offenses or major violations of laws and regulations, and no conclusion has yet been made thereof; or (5) there are material ownership disputes over equity held by the domestic company’s controlling shareholder(s) or by other shareholder(s) that are controlled by the controlling shareholder(s) and/or actual controller.

The Overseas Listing Trial Measures also provides that if the issuer meets both the following criteria, the overseas securities offering and listing conducted by such issuer will be deemed as indirect overseas offering by PRC domestic companies: (1) 50% or more of any of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent fiscal year is accounted for by domestic companies; and (2) the main parts of the issuer’s business activities are conducted in mainland China, or its main place(s) of business are located in mainland China, or the majority of senior management staff in charge of its business operations and management are PRC citizens or have their usual place(s) of residence located in mainland China. Where an issuer applies for initial public offering to competent overseas regulators, such issuer must file with the CSRC within three business days after such application is submitted. In addition, the Overseas Listing Trial Measures provide that the direct or indirect overseas listings of the assets of domestic companies through one or more acquisitions, share swaps, transfers or other transaction arrangements shall be subject to filing procedures in accordance with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, which filing shall be submitted within three business days after the issuer submits its application documents relating to the initial public offering and/or listing or after the first public announcement of the relevant transaction (if the submission of relevant application documents is not required). The Overseas Listing Trial Measures also requires subsequent reports to be filed with the CSRC on material events, such as change of control or voluntary or forced delisting of the issuer(s) who have completed overseas offerings and listings.

Guidance for Application of Regulatory Rules — Overseas Offering and Listing No.1, promulgated by CSRC together with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, provides that if a domestic enterprise completes an overseas offering through an overseas special purposes acquisition company, it shall submit the filing materials within three business days after such overseas special purposes acquisition company publicly announces such acquisition transaction. In addition, according to the Notice on Administration for the Filing of Overseas Offering and Listing by Domestic Enterprises promulgated by the CSRC on its official website on February 17, 2023, the companies that have already been listed on overseas stock exchanges prior to March 31, 2023 or the companies that have obtained the approval from overseas supervision administrations or stock exchanges for its offering and listing prior to March 31, 2023 and will complete their overseas offering and listing prior to September 30, 2023 are not required to make immediate filings for its listing, but are required to make filings for subsequent offerings in accordance with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. Companies that have already submitted an application for an initial public offering to overseas supervision administrations but have not yet obtained the approval from overseas supervision administrations or stock exchanges for the offering and listing prior to March 31, 2023 may arrange for the filing within a reasonable time period and should complete the required CSRC filing procedure, the completion of which will be published on the CSRC website, prior to such companies’ overseas issuance and listing.

Because Pubco had not received the approval from the SEC and Nasdaq for the Business Combination prior to March 31, 2023, we are required to complete the filing procedure under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and the listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. We have submitted a filing with the CSRC with respect to the Business Combination and provided all of the supplementary materials required by the CSRC, but as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the CSRC has not concluded its review process. Other than routine correspondence with the CSRC in connection with the CSRC filing procedures, we have not received any formal inquiry, notice, warning, sanction, or any regulatory objection from the CSRC with respect to this Business Combination. If we fail to complete the required filing procedures for the Business Combination and the listing of Pubco Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms, and the Business Combination may not be consummated. Aimei Health, Pubco and we will not consummate the Business Combination without first completing the CSRC filing and receiving the CSRC approval under the Overseas Listing Trial Measures.

We may not be able to complete the CSRC filing procedures, obtain the approvals or authorizations, or complete the required procedures or other requirements in a timely manner, or at all. Any failure or perceived failure of us to fully comply with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures may subject us to adverse regulatory actions, including an order to rectify, a warning and fines ranging from RMB1,000,000 to RMB10,000,000, and the person directly in charge and other directly responsible individuals may also be subjected to adverse regulatory actions, including a warning and fines ranging from RMB500,000 to RMB5,000,000. These penalties could materially hinder our ability to consummate the Business Combination and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, the Overseas Listing Trial Measures are recently enacted, and future implementing rules or amendments may impose additional compliance obligations on us, our affiliates, or our PRC subsidiaries. If the CSRC or other PRC authorities were to require changes to our corporate structure, governance, or operations during the review process, we may be required to file a post-effective amendment or supplemental prospectus, or even resolicit stockholder approval. Such requirements could delay or jeopardize the closing of the Business Combination. In addition, any such delay may cause our financial statements and disclosures included in this proxy statement/prospectus to become stale under the applicable SEC rules, requiring costly updates and additional filings that could further postpone stockholder approval or completion of the Business Combination.

As a result, there is significant uncertainty as to whether we will be able to obtain all necessary CSRC approvals or complete all required filings, and any failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and the value of Pubco Ordinary Shares.

The Opinions, the Trial Measures, and the revised Provisions recently issued by the PRC authorities may subject us to additional compliance requirements in the future.

The General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the “Opinions on Severely Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities According to Law” (the “Opinions”), which were made available to the public on July 6, 2021. The Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies. The Opinions proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems, to deal with the risks and incidents facing China-based overseas-listed companies and the demand for cybersecurity and data privacy protection. On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Measures and five supporting guidelines, which became effective on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, PRC domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. If a domestic company fails to complete required filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties, such as an order to rectify, warnings, and fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines. We may also be required to file with the CSRC in connection with any of our future offering and listing on an overseas market, including follow-on offerings, issuance of convertible bonds, offshore relisting after going-private transactions, and other equivalent offering activities.

On February 24, 2023, the CSRC, together with the MOF, National Administration of State Secrets Protection and National Archives Administration of China, revised the Provisions issued by the CSRC and National Administration of State Secrets Protection and National Archives Administration of China in 2009. The revised Provisions were issued under the title the “Provisions on Strengthening Confidentiality and Archives Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies,” (the “Provisions”) and became effective on March 31, 2023 together with the Trial Measures. One of the major revisions to the revised Provisions is expanding their application to cover indirect overseas offering and listing, as is consistent with the Trial Measures. The revised Provisions require that, among other things, (i) a domestic company that plans to, either directly or indirectly through its overseas listed entity, publicly disclose or provide to relevant individuals or entities including securities companies, securities service providers and overseas regulators, any documents and materials that contain state secrets or working secrets of government agencies, shall first obtain approval from competent authorities according to law, and file with the secrecy administrative department at the same level; and (ii) a domestic company that plans to, either directly or indirectly through its overseas listed entity, publicly disclose or provide to relevant individuals and entities including securities companies, securities service providers and overseas regulators, any other documents and materials that, if leaked, will be detrimental to national security or public interest, shall strictly fulfill relevant procedures stipulated by applicable national regulations.

In addition, the Opinions, the Trial Measures, the revised Provisions, and any related implementing rules thereto may evolve and subject us to additional compliance requirements in the future, in which case there is no guarantee that we will be able to comply with any additional regulatory requirements, which may arise from the evolving interpretation of the Opinions, the Trial Measures, or any related implementing rules thereto. Any failure or perceived failure by PRC domestic companies to comply with the above confidentiality and archives administration requirements under the revised Provisions and other PRC laws and regulations may result in the relevant entities being held legally liable by competent authorities and referred to the judicial organ to be investigated for criminal liability if suspected of committing a crime.

Recent greater oversight by the CAC over data security, particularly for companies seeking to list on a foreign exchange, could adversely impact our business.

On December 28, 2021, 13 governmental departments of the PRC, including the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”), jointly promulgated the Cybersecurity Review Measures, which became effective on February 15, 2022. The Cybersecurity Review Measures provide that, in addition to critical information infrastructure operators (the “CIIOs”) that intend to purchase Internet products and services, net platform operators engaging in data processing activities that affect or may affect national security must be subject to cybersecurity review by the Cybersecurity Review Office of the PRC. According to the Cybersecurity Review Measures, a cybersecurity review assesses potential national security risks that may be brought about by any procurement, data processing, or overseas listing. The Cybersecurity Review Measures require that an online platform operator which possesses personal information of at least one million users must proactively apply for a cybersecurity review by the CAC if it intends to be listed in foreign countries. The Cybersecurity Review Measures also provide that relevant regulatory authorities may initiate a cybersecurity review upon a company when they believe such company’s network products, services, or data processing activities pose risks on national security.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we have not received any notice from any authorities identifying any of our entities as CIIOs or requiring us to go through cybersecurity review or network data security review by the CAC. Further, we have not been subject to any penalties, fines, suspensions, investigations from any competent authorities for violation of the regulations or policies that have been issued by the CAC to date. As confirmed by our PRC counsel, Yongxing Law Firm, our operations and Pubco’s listing are not expected to be affected by, or subject to, cybersecurity review by the CAC under the Cybersecurity Review Measures, given that none of our entities are (i) network platform operators engaging in data processing activities that affect or may affect national security; (ii) critical information infrastructure operators purchasing cyber products or services that affect or may affect national security; or (iii) network platform operators with personal information data of more than one million users. There remains uncertainty, however, as to how the Cybersecurity Review Measures will be interpreted or implemented and whether the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, may adopt new laws, regulations, rules, or detailed implementation and interpretation related to the Cybersecurity Review Measures and Regulations on Administration of Network Data Security (effective on January 1, 2025). If any such new laws, regulations, rules, or implementation and interpretation come into effect, we expect to take all reasonable measures and actions to comply and to minimize the adverse effect of such laws on it. We cannot guarantee, however, that we will not be subject to cybersecurity review and network data security review in the future. During such reviews, we may be required to suspend their operations or experience other disruptions to their operations. Cybersecurity review and network data security review could also result in negative publicity with respect to us and diversion of its managerial and financial resources, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

If (i) we do not receive or maintain any required approval, or fails to complete any required review or filings, (ii) we inadvertently concludes that such approval, review or filing is not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change such that it becomes mandatory for us to obtain any approval, review or filing in the future, we may have to expend significant time and costs to comply with these requirements. If we are unable to do so, on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or otherwise, we may become subject to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against it, and other forms of sanctions, and our ability to conduct its business, invest into China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, complete the Transactions, or list on a U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and its business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Further, our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and the value of our securities may significantly decline.

Failure to comply with PRC Data Security and Personal Information Protection Laws could result in a material adverse effect on our business operations, financial condition, and the value of our securities.

On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (“SCNPC”) promulgated the PRC Data Security Law, which took effect on September 1, 2021. The PRC Data Security Law imposes data security and privacy obligations on entities and individuals carrying out data activities, and introduces a data classification and hierarchical

73

Table of Contents

protection system based on the importance of data in economic and social development, as well as the degree of harm it will cause to national security, public interests, or legitimate rights and interests of individuals or organizations when such data is tampered with, destroyed, leaked, or illegally acquired or used. The PRC Data Security Law also provides for a national security review procedure for data activities that may affect national security and imposes export restrictions on certain data and information. As uncertainties remain regarding the interpretation and implementation of these laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that we will comply with such regulations in all respects, and we may be ordered to rectify or terminate any actions that are deemed illegal by regulatory authorities. We may also become subject to fines and/or other sanctions which may have material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial condition.

On August 20, 2021, the SCNPC promulgated the PRC Personal Information Protection Law, or the PIPL, which took effect in November 2021. In addition to other rules and principles of personal information processing, the PIPL specifically provides rules for processing sensitive personal information. Sensitive personal information refers to personal information that, once leaked or illegally used, could easily lead to the infringement of human dignity or harm to the personal or property safety of an individual, including biometric recognition, religious belief, specific identity, medical and health, financial account, personal whereabouts and other information of an individual, as well as any personal information of a minor under the age of 14. Only where there is a specific purpose and sufficient necessity, and under circumstances where strict protection measures are taken, may personal information processors process sensitive personal information. A personal information processor shall inform the individual of the necessity of processing such sensitive personal information and the impact thereof on the individual’s rights and interests apart from the matters of, including without limitation, name and contact number of the processor, processing purpose and method, type to be processed, preservation period of the information, means and procedures by which individuals exercise the rights provided by the PIPL. As uncertainties remain regarding the interpretation and implementation of the PIPL, we cannot assure you that we will comply with the PIPL in all respects and regulatory authorities may order us to rectify or terminate our current practice of collecting and processing sensitive personal information.

While we take various measures to comply with all applicable data privacy and protection laws and regulations, there is no guarantee that our current security measures and those of our third-party service providers may always be adequate for the protection of our customer or company data. Any failure, or perceived failure to maintain the security of our user data or to comply with applicable PRC or foreign privacy, data security and personal information protection laws and obligations may result in civil or regulatory liability, including governmental or data protection authority enforcement actions and investigations, fines, penalties, enforcement orders requiring us to cease operating in a certain way, litigation, or adverse publicity, and may require us to expend significant resources in responding to and defending allegations and claims, all of which may have material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial condition. In addition, compliance with applicable laws on data privacy requires substantial expenditure and resources, including to continually evaluate our policies and processes and adapt to new requirements that are or become applicable to us on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, which would impose significant burdens and costs on our operations or may require us to alter our business practices.

Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our holding company structure, which may result in a material change in our operations and/or a material change in the value of the securities that Pubco is registering for sale, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

Although the PRC government has increasingly open attitude towards absorbing foreign investment in general, it still implements the Special Administrative Measures for Access of Foreign Investments (the “Negative List”). Under the Negative List, foreign investors shall not invest in any forbidden fields stipulated in the Negative List and shall meet the conditions stipulated in the Negative List before investing in any restricted fields. While as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our main business, hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications is not restricted or prohibited by the Negative List, the PRC government revises the Negative List from time to time; although the scope of the Negative List tends to be defined more narrowly over the time, it remains uncertain whether our existing business or future business will be included in future revisions. If the business of our PRC subsidiaries is deemed as a restricted or prohibited business based on the Negative List, our corporate structure post-Business Combination may be considered illegal and required to be restructured by the Chinese government, which may adversely affect our operations and the value of the securities it is registering for sale.

On July 4, 2014, the PRC SAFE (“SAFE”) issued the SAFE Circular 37 (“SAFE Circular 37”), which requires PRC residents, including PRC individuals and institutions, to register with SAFE or its local branches in connection with their direct establishment or indirect control of an offshore special purpose vehicle, for the purpose of overseas investment and financing, with such PRC residents’ legally owned assets or equity interests in domestic enterprises or offshore assets or

74

Table of Contents

interests. In addition, such PRC residents must update their foreign exchange registrations with SAFE or its local branches when the offshore special purpose vehicles in which such residents directly hold equity interests undergo material events relating to any changes of basic information (including changes of such PRC individual shareholders, names, and operation terms), increases or decreases in investment amount, share transfers or exchanges, or mergers or divisions. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, all of our PRC resident shareholders, namely Ma Xia and Li Yao, who indirectly hold more than 65% of the shares of United Hydrogen Group Inc. through their respective BVI companies, have completed SAFE Circular 37 Registration and are in compliance. We attempt to comply and ensure that, following the consummation of the Business Combination, its shareholders who are subject to these rules comply with the relevant requirements. However, we may not be fully informed of the identities of all their shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents, and therefore, we may not be able to identify all shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents to ensure their compliance with the SAFE Circular 37 or other related rules. In addition, there is no assurance that all such shareholders and beneficial owners who are PRC residents will comply with our request to make, obtain, or update any applicable registrations or comply with other requirements required by the SAFE Circular 37 or other related rules in a timely manner. Even if such shareholders and beneficial owners who are PRC residents comply with such request, there is no assurance that they will successfully obtain or update any registration required by the SAFE Circular 37 or other related rules in a timely manner. If any of such shareholders who is a PRC resident, as determined by SAFE Circular 37, fails to fulfill the required foreign exchange registration, it will be deemed illegal for such shareholder to directly or indirectly hold Pubco’s equity under the PRC laws. Furthermore, if PRC authorities disallow such shareholder to own Pubco’s equity, Pubco’s PRC subsidiaries may be prohibited from distributing dividends to Pubco or from carrying out other subsequent cross-border foreign exchange activities, and Pubco may be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital to its PRC subsidiaries, which may adversely affect our operations and the value of the securities that Pubco is registering for sale.

Furthermore, if future laws, administrative regulations, or provisions mandate further actions to be taken by us with respect to existing corporate structure, we may face substantial uncertainties as to whether we can complete such actions in a timely manner, or at all. Failure to take timely and appropriate measures to cope with any of these or similar regulatory compliance challenges could materially and adversely affect our corporate structure, resulting in a material change in our operations and/or a material change in the value of Pubco Ordinary Shares, including that it could cause the value of Pubco Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.

Future changes in PRC Outbound Direct Investment Regulations could impact our ability to make further outbound investments.

According to the Administrative Measures on Overseas Investments, effective as of October 6, 2014, the Opinions on Further Guiding and Regulating Outbound Investment, effective as of August 4, 2017, the Administrative Measures for the Outbound Investment by Enterprises, dated December 26, 2017, and any other applicable rules and regulations of the PRC for outbound direct investments, Chinese enterprises are required to complete an Outbound Direct Investment (ODI) registration when investing in overseas enterprises. This ODI registration requirement applies to the establishment of new entities, the acquisitions of equity, and the obtaining of direct or indirect ownership of an overseas company, including control rights, business management, and other forms of ownership.

Failure to comply with ODI registration requirements can result in significant legal and operational risks, including penalties and restrictions on future outbound investments. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our company and its institutional shareholders have completed the necessary ODI registrations. However, any future changes in the regulatory environment or stricter enforcement of existing regulations could impact our ability to make further outbound investments. Such failure could adversely affect our expansion plans and financial performance. Additionally, any delays or issues in maintaining compliance with ODI registration requirements could result in operational disruptions and increased compliance costs.

We face uncertainties with respect to the interpretation and implementation of the newly enacted Foreign Investment Law and how it may impact the viability of our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations.

On March 15, 2019, the National People’s Congress approved the Foreign Investment Law (the “FIL”), which took effect on January 1, 2020 (with the Implementation Rules to the FIL come into effect from the same day) and replaced the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law and the Foreign-invested Enterprise Law, together with their implementation rules and ancillary regulations, to become the legal foundation for foreign investment in the PRC.

The PRC Foreign Investment Law embodies an expected PRC regulatory trend to rationalize its foreign investment regulatory regime in line with prevailing international practice and the legislative efforts to unify the corporate legal requirements for both foreign and domestic invested enterprises in China. The PRC Foreign Investment Law establishes the basic framework for the access to, and the promotion, protection and administration of foreign investments in view of investment protection and fair competition.

According to the PRC Foreign Investment Law, “foreign investment” refers to investment activities directly or indirectly conducted by one or more natural persons, business entities, or otherwise organizations of a foreign country (collectively referred to as “foreign investor”) within China, and the investment activities include the following situations: (i) a foreign investor, individually or collectively with other investors, establishes a foreign-invested enterprise within China; (ii) a foreign investor acquires stock shares, equity shares, shares in assets, or other like rights and interests of an enterprise within China; (iii) a foreign investor, individually or collectively with other investors, invests in a new project within China; and (iv) investments in other means as provided by laws, administrative regulations, or the State Council.

According to the PRC Foreign Investment Law, the State Council will publish or approve to publish the “negative list” for special administrative measures concerning foreign investment. The PRC Foreign Investment Law grants national treatment to foreign-invested entities, or FIEs, except for those FIEs that operate in industries deemed to be either “restricted” or “prohibited” in the “negative list”. While as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our main business, hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications, is not restricted or prohibited by the Negative List, However, in the event the 2024 Negative List is amended in the future to include any of the business we are operating, our ownership structure could be subject to change.

The Foreign Investment Law and the Implementation Regulations impose information reporting system, according to which foreign investors or foreign-invested enterprises shall submit investment information to the competent department for commerce concerned through the enterprise registration system and the enterprise credit information publicity system, and a security review system under which the security review shall be conducted for foreign investment affecting or likely affecting the state security. Any foreign investors or foreign-invested enterprises found to be non-compliant with these reporting obligations may be subject to fines or administrative liabilities.

In addition, the FIL provides that foreign-invested enterprises established according to the existing laws regulating foreign investment may maintain their structure and corporate governance within a five-year transition period, which means that we may be required to adjust the structure and corporate governance of certain of our PRC subsidiaries in such transition period. Failure to take timely and appropriate measures to cope with any of these or similar regulatory compliance challenges could materially and adversely affect our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations.

In addition, the PRC Foreign Investment Law also provides several protective rules and principles for foreign investors and their investments in the PRC, including, among others, that a foreign investor may freely transfer into or out of China, in RMB or a foreign currency, its contributions, profits, capital gains, income from disposition of assets, royalties of intellectual property rights, indemnity or compensation lawfully acquired, and income from liquidation, among others, within China; local governments shall abide by their commitments to the foreign investors; governments at all levels and their departments shall enact local normative documents concerning foreign investment in compliance with laws and regulations and shall not impair legitimate rights and interests, impose additional obligations onto FIEs, set market access restrictions and exit conditions, or intervene with the normal production and operation activities of FIEs; except for special circumstances, in which case statutory procedures shall be followed and fair and reasonable compensation shall be made in a timely manner, expropriation or requisition of the investment of foreign investors is prohibited; and mandatory technology transfer is prohibited.

PRC regulation of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may restrict or prevent us from using the proceeds of the Business Combination to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries.

Pubco is an offshore holding company with its operations conducted in China post-Business Combination. Pubco may make loans to its PRC subsidiaries subject to the approval, registration, and filing with governmental authorities and limitation of amount, or it may make additional capital contributions to its wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China. Any loans to its wholly foreign-owned subsidiaries in China, which are treated as foreign-invested enterprises under PRC law, are subject to foreign exchange loan registrations with the National Development and Reform Commission, or the NDRC, and SAFE or its local branches. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise shall use its capital pursuant to the principle of authenticity and self-use within its business scope. The capital of a foreign invested enterprise shall not be used for the

76

Table of Contents

following purposes: (i) directly or indirectly used for payment beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations; (ii) directly or indirectly used for investment in securities or investments other than banks’ principal-secured products unless otherwise provided by relevant laws and regulations; (iii) the granting of loans to non-affiliated enterprises, except where it is expressly permitted in the business license; and (iv) paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use (except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises).

SAFE promulgated the Notice of the SAFE on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises, or Circular 19, effective on June 1, 2015, and last amended on March 23, 2023. According to Circular 19, the flow and use of the RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company is regulated such that RMB capital may not be used for the issuance of RMB entrusted loans, the repayment of inter-enterprise loans or the repayment of banks loans that have been transferred to a third-party. Although Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise to be used for equity investments within the PRC, it also reiterates the principle that RMB converted from the foreign currency-denominated capital of a foreign-invested company may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope. SAFE promulgated the Notice of the SAFE on Reforming and Standardizing the Foreign Exchange Settlement Management Policy of Capital Account, or Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in Circular 19, but changes the prohibition against using RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company to issue RMB entrusted loans to a prohibition against using such capital to issue loans to non-associated enterprises. Violations of SAFE Circular 19 and Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties. Circular 19 and Circular 16 may significantly limit our ability to transfer any foreign currency we hold, including the net proceeds from this Business Combination to our PRC subsidiaries, which may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in the PRC.

On October 23, 2019, SAFE promulgated the Circular of the SAFE on Further Promoting the Facilitation of Cross-border Trade and Investment, or SAFE Circular 28, which permits non-investment foreign-invested enterprises to use their capital funds to make equity investments in China, with genuine investment projects and in compliance with effective foreign investment restrictions and other applicable laws.

In light of the various requirements imposed by PRC regulations on loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future loans or future capital contributions by us to our PRC subsidiaries. As a result, uncertainties exist as to our ability to provide prompt financial support to our PRC subsidiaries when needed. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use foreign currency, including the proceeds we received from this offering, and to capitalize or otherwise fund our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Some of our leasehold interests may be defective, which may challenge or affect our right to use the leased properties. In addition, we have not completed registration procedures in respect of our leased properties with the relevant PRC authorities.

We lease a number of properties for our office, facilities, service centers, inventories, and infrastructures, (“Leased Properties”) across China. Certain Leased Properties are not used in accordance with PRC laws and our leasehold interests in such Leased Properties are therefore under defective situations.

We have not been provided by certain lessors with the applicable certificates, approvals, consents or other similar documents proving their right to lease or sublease these Leased Properties to us. If any lessor is not the owner of the Leased Properties, or is not entitled to lease or sublease the Leased Properties to us, or have not obtained consents from the owners or their lessors or permits or approvals from the relevant governmental authorities, we may not be able to enforce our rights to lease such Leased Properties under the respective lease agreements against the lessors and our leases may be invalidated. For example, certain of our Leased Properties are currently located on allocated lands or collectively-owned construction lands, and the lessors have not provided the title certificates to these Leased Properties or the governmental or other applicable approval permitting the leases. If the lessor fails to obtain such approval, our leases may be invalidated or challenged, and we may also need to vacate our premises.

In addition, certain Leased Properties might have been mortgaged by the landlords to third parties before entering into lease agreements with us. If the mortgagees of these Leased Properties exercise their mortgage right, we will not be able to continue our leases on the said properties.

77

Table of Contents

Under PRC laws, all lease agreements are required to be registered with the local land and real estate administration bureau. Although failure to do so does not in itself invalidate the leases, the leases may not be able to defend these leases against bona fide third parties and may also be exposed to potential fines if they fail to rectify such non-compliance within the prescribed time frame after receiving notice from the relevant PRC government authorities. The penalty ranges from RMB1,000 to RMB10,000 for each unregistered lease, at the discretion of the relevant authority. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the lease agreements of our PRC subsidiaries have not been registered with relevant governmental authorities. If any competent authority requires that we complete such lease registrations within a prescribed period of time, we will use our best efforts to comply with such requirements. In the event that any fine is imposed on our PRC subsidiaries for their failure to register their lease agreements, these PRC subsidiaries may not be able to recover such losses from the lessors. However, as the fines, if any, will be minor, the business and financial results of our PRC subsidiaries will not be materially affected.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments, or bringing actions in China against us or our management that reside outside the United States based on foreign laws. It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China.

As a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, Pubco conducts its operations through its subsidiaries in the mainland PRC. In addition, following the closing of the Business Combination, five out of our five directors, and all of our executive officers, namely Xia Ma, and Weina Lin, are residents of the PRC. All or a substantial portion of the assets of our directors and officers are located within China. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon those persons inside the PRC. It may be difficult for you to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and its officers and directors who do not currently reside in the U.S. or have substantial assets in the U.S. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands or the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts against us, or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, the PRC courts will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or its directors and officers if (i) the foreign court does not have jurisdiction over the case in accordance with Article 301 of the PRC Civil Procedures Law; (ii) The respondent was not duly summoned, or although duly summoned, was not given a reasonable opportunity to present and argue the case, or a party without litigation capacity was not properly represented; (iii) the judgment or ruling was obtained through fraud; (iv) the PRC court has already rendered a judgment or ruling on the same dispute, or has already recognized a judgment or ruling on the same dispute by a third country’s court; and (v) recognition and enforcement of the judgment would violate the basic principles of the laws of the People’s Republic of China or harm its sovereignty, security, or public interests.

It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with counterparts of another country or region to monitor and oversee cross border securities activities, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States may not be efficient in the absence of a practical cooperation mechanism. Furthermore, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law (“Article 177”), which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Article 177 further provides that Chinese entities and individuals are not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to foreign agencies without prior consent from the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council. While detailed interpretation of or implementing rules under Article 177 have yet to be promulgated, the inability for an overseas securities regulator to directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by you in protecting your interests.

The M&A Rules and certain other PRC regulations may make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions.

The Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, and some other regulations and rules concerning mergers and acquisitions established complex procedures and requirements for some acquisitions of

78

Table of Contents

Chinese companies by foreign investors, including requirements in some instances that the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC (“MOFCOM”), be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise. Moreover, the Anti-Monopoly Law promulgated by the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress, which became effective in 2008 requires that transactions which are deemed concentrations and involve parties with specified turnover thresholds must be cleared by MOFCOM before they can be completed. In addition, the security review rules issued by MOFCOM that became effective in September 2011 specify that mergers and acquisitions by foreign investors that raise “national defense and security” concerns and mergers and acquisitions through which foreign investors may acquire de facto control over domestic enterprises that raise “national security” concerns are subject to strict review by MOFCOM, and the rules prohibit any activities attempting to bypass a security review, including by structuring the transaction through a proxy or contractual control arrangement. On December 19, 2020, the Measures for the Security Review for Foreign Investment was jointly issued by NDRC and MOFCOM and took effect from January 18, 2021. The Measures for the Security Review for Foreign Investment specified provisions concerning the security review mechanism on foreign investment, including the types of investments subject to review, review scopes and procedures, among others.

In the future, we may pursue potential strategic acquisitions that are complementary to our business and operations. Complying with the requirements of the above-mentioned regulations and other relevant rules to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval or clearance from MOFCOM or its local counterparts or other relevant governmental authorities, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

The approval of the CSRC, the CAC, or other PRC regulatory agencies may be required in connection with the Business Combination under a PRC regulation or any new laws, rules or regulations to be enacted, and if required, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such approval.

The M&A Rules adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, require an overseas special purpose vehicle formed for listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC companies or individuals to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. In September 2006, the CSRC published a notice on its official website specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by a special purpose vehicle seeking CSRC approval of its overseas listings. However, substantial uncertainty remains regarding the scope and applicability of the M&A Rules to offshore special purpose vehicles. Currently, there is no consensus among leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement.

Our PRC counsel has advised us based on their understanding of the current PRC law, rules and regulations that the CSRC’s approval under the M&A Rules is not required for this Business Combination (including the offering of ordinary shares to U.S. investors) and the listing and trading of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq in the context of this Business Combination, given that:

        the CSRC currently has not issued any definitive rule or interpretation concerning whether offerings like ours under this proxy statement/prospectus are subject to this regulation; and

        WFOE was not established by a merger with or an acquisition of any PRC domestic companies as defined under the M&A Rules, and the acquisition of the equity of a foreign-invested enterprise shall not be a merger or acquisition of the equity or assets of a “PRC domestic enterprise” as defined under the M&A Rules.

However, uncertainty remains as to how the M&A Rules will be interpreted or implemented in the context of an overseas offering and its opinions summarized above are subject to any new laws, rules and regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations in any form relating to the M&A Rules or overseas offering approval. We cannot assure you that relevant PRC governmental agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion as we do.

Because our business is conducted in RMB and the price of Pubco Ordinary Shares is quoted in United States dollars, changes in currency conversion rates may affect the value of your investments. Any significant revaluation of the RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenue and financial condition. Changes in the conversion rate between the United States dollar and the RMB will affect the amount of proceeds we will have available for our business.

Our business is conducted in the PRC; our books and records are maintained in RMB, which is the only lawful currency of the PRC; and the financial statements that we file with the SEC and provide to our shareholders are presented in United States dollars. Changes in the exchange rate between the RMB and U.S. dollars affect the value of our assets

Table of Contents

and the results of our operations in United States dollars. The value of the RMB against the United States dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions and perceived changes in the economy of the PRC and the United States. Any significant revaluation of the RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenue and financial condition. Further, our ordinary shares offered by this prospectus are offered in United States dollars, and we will need to convert the net proceeds we receive into RMB in order to use the funds for our business. Changes in the conversion rate between the United States dollar and the RMB will affect that amount of proceeds we will have available for our business.

There remains significant international pressure on the Chinese government to adopt a flexible currency policy that allows RMB to appreciate against the U.S. dollar. Significant revaluation of RMB may have a material and adverse effect on your investment. Substantially all of our revenues and costs are denominated in RMB. Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially and adversely affect our revenues, earnings and financial position, and the value of, and any dividends payable on, our ordinary shares in U.S. dollars. A significant depreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar may significantly reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings, which in turn could adversely affect the price of our ordinary shares, and if we decide to convert RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making dividend payments on our ordinary shares, strategic acquisitions or investments or other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us.

Joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to Pubco’s listing on Nasdaq or future offerings of its securities in the U.S.

On April 21, 2020, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and PCAOB Chairman William D. Duhnke III, along with other senior SEC staff, released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or have substantial operations in emerging markets including China. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

On May 18, 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply a minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market,” (ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or the board of directors for Restrictive Market companies, and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditor. On October 4, 2021, the SEC approved Nasdaq’s revised proposal for the rule changes.

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the HFCA Act requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOB inspection. If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s auditors for three consecutive years, the issuer’s securities are prohibited to trade on a national exchange. On December 2, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the HFCA Act. On December 18, 2020, the HFCA Act was signed into law.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC announced the adoption of interim final amendments to implement the submission and disclosure requirements of the HFCA Act. In the announcement, the SEC clarifies that before any issuer will have to comply with the interim final amendments, the SEC must implement a process for identifying covered issuers. The announcement also stated that the SEC staff is actively assessing how best to implement the other requirements of the HFCA Act, including the identification process and the trading prohibition requirements.

On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, and on December 29, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act was signed into law by President Biden, which contained, among other things, an identical provision to the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and amended the HFCA Act by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time period for triggering the delisting of Pubco and the prohibition of trading in its securities if the PCAOB is unable to inspect Pubco’s accounting firm at such future time.

On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final rule implementing the HFCA Act, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether the board of directors of a company is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.

Table of Contents

On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act, which became effective on January 10, 2022. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions. For example, on December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that the Board is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. The Board made these determinations pursuant to PCAOB Rule 6100, which provides a framework for how the PCAOB fulfills its responsibilities under the HFCA Act.

The lack of access to the PCAOB inspection in China prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of these accounting firm’s audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections, which could cause existing and potential investors in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to lose confidence in Pubco’s audit procedures and reported financial information and the quality of its financial statements.

Pubco’s auditor, Enrome LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Pubco’s auditor is headquartered in Singapore, and it is subject to PCAOB inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of Pubco’s auditor and Pubco’s auditor is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. However, the recent developments would add uncertainties to the closing of Business Combination and there is no assurance whether Nasdaq or regulatory authorities would apply additional and more stringent criteria to Pubco since Pubco is an emerging growth company and the majority of its operations are conducted in China. Furthermore, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect Pubco’s accounting firm in the future, the HFCA Act, which requires that the PCAOB be permitted to inspect an issuer’s public accounting firm within two years, as amended, will prohibit trading in its securities, and, as a result, an exchange may determine to delist Pubco’s securities and trading in such securities could be prohibited.

On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the MOF, and the PCAOB signed the Protocol, governing inspections and investigations of accounting firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination.

Risks Related to Aimei Health and the Business Combination

The shareholders of Aimei Health may experience substantial dilution as a consequence of the issuance of ordinary shares in or after the Business Combination, and will exercise less influence over management.

Upon the issuance of 150,000,000 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares at $10.00 per share in the Business Combination, the percentage ownership held by current Aimei Health shareholders in Pubco will be diluted. The ultimate ownership percentage of current Aimei Health shareholders as a group post-Business Combination will depend on how many Aimei Health Ordinary Shares are redeemed by their holders in the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, current Aimei Health shareholders, as a group, will own (i) 6.53% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming no Public Shareholders exercise the redemption rights, (ii) 4.47% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming 50% redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares (iii) 2.33% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei

Table of Contents

Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result, current Aimei Health shareholders, as a group, will have a less significant influence on Pubco’s Board of Directors, management and policies. For a more detailed illustration of the numbers of shares and percentage interests outstanding under various redemption scenarios, see the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Subsequent to the Business Combination, Pubco may, under certain circumstances and without further approval of holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares, issue additional Pubco Ordinary Shares, equity-linked securities, or convertible debt securities of equal or senior rank. Such issuances may serve various purposes, including financing Pubco’s operations and business strategy (such as acquisitions, PIPE investments, or other transactions), adjusting Pubco’s debt-to-equity ratio, or satisfying obligations arising from the exercise of outstanding options or other equity-linked securities. These additional issuances could materially and adversely affect the rights and interests of Aimei Health shareholders who do not redeem their shares in the Business Combination. Specifically, issuing new securities may dilute their ownership and voting power, and reduce their ability to influence corporate actions and decisions. Further, issuing securities at a price below the current market value could immediately diminish the economic value of existing shares. If any new securities are issued with rights or preferences superior to those of existing shareholders — such as preferential voting rights, priority dividend entitlements, or senior liquidation preferences — Aimei Health shareholders could see their positions further subordinated in Pubco’s capital structure. Additionally, the conversion or exercise of equity-linked or convertible securities could exacerbate this dilution, particularly if these securities contain terms favorable to their holders.

Because of the dual-class voting structure of Pubco and the disparate voting power of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, the beneficial owner of the Class B Ordinary Shares, Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson of the Board of Directors, will own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Ordinary Shares (assuming no redemptions) and her interests may not align with the interests of the other Pubco shareholders.

The dual-class structure of Pubco Ordinary Shares has the effect of concentrating voting control in Ms. Xia Ma, Chairperson of the Board of Directors of Pubco, because following the consummation of the Business Combination she will beneficially own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. This presents certain risks since her interests may not be aligned with the interests of Pubco’s other shareholders in all circumstances.

Pubco has a dual-class voting structure, consisting of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Under this structure, holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to ten (10) votes per share. This unbalanced and disparate allocation of voting power will cause Ms. Xia Ma, as the sole beneficial owner of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, to have a disparately higher concentration of voting power, representing approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result of the disparate voting power of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Ms. Ma, she will possess the ability to control Pubco’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, the election of directors, and other significant corporate actions.

Ms. Ma, in her capacity as the ultimate controlling shareholder of Pubco, may take actions that are not in the best interests of Pubco or its other shareholders. These corporate actions may be taken even if they are opposed by Pubco’s other shareholders. Further, such concentration of voting power may discourage, prevent, or delay the consummation of transactions that other shareholders may consider favorable, including ones in which other shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. Future issuances of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares may also be dilutive to the holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.

The fairness opinion obtained by the Aimei Health board of directors will not reflect changes, circumstances, developments, or events that may have occurred or may occur after the date of the opinion.

CHFT has provided a fairness opinion to the Aimei Health board of directors stating that, as of the date of such opinion, and based upon and subject to the procedures followed, assumptions made, qualifications and limitations on review undertaken, and other matters considered by CHFT in preparing such opinion, the aggregate consideration to be paid in the Business Combination Agreement is fair from a financial point of view to Aimei Health.

Table of Contents

The Aimei Health board of directors has not obtained an updated fairness opinion as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus from CHFT, and the Aimei Health board of directors does not expect to receive an updated fairness opinion prior to the completion of the Business Combination.

The opinion does not reflect changes, circumstances, developments, or events that may have occurred or may occur after the date of the opinion, including changes in the operations and prospects of United Hydrogen, regulatory or legal changes, general market and economic conditions and other factors that may be beyond the control of United Hydrogen and on which the fairness opinion was based, and that may alter the value of United Hydrogen prior to consummation of the Business Combination. The value of United Hydrogen could be materially different from its value as of, the date of CHFT’s opinion, and CHFT’s does not speak as of the time the Business Combination will be completed or as of any date other than the date of such opinion. Aimei Health does not anticipate asking CHFT to update CHFT’s opinion, and CHFT does not have an obligation or responsibility to update, revise, or reaffirm its opinion based on circumstances, developments, or events that may have occurred or may occur after the date of the opinion. The written opinion of CHFT is attached as Annex F to this proxy statement/prospectus and is incorporated by reference herein.

Litigation relating to the Business Combination could result in an injunction preventing the completion of the Business Combination and/or substantial costs to Aimei Health and the combined company.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into acquisition, merger, or other business combination agreements. Even if such a lawsuit is without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on Aimei Health’s liquidity and financial condition.

Lawsuits that may be brought against Aimei Health or its directors could also seek, among other things, injunctive relief or other equitable relief, including a request to rescind parts of the Business Combination Agreement already implemented and to otherwise enjoin the parties from consummating the Business Combination. One of the closing conditions to the Business Combination is that no injunction by any court, administrative agency, or other governmental entity has been entered and continues to be in effect and no law having such effect has been adopted or is effective. Consequently, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the Business Combination, that injunction may delay or prevent the Business Combination from being completed within the expected timeframe or at all, which may adversely affect Aimei Health’s and Pubco’s respective business, financial position and results of operation.

There can be no assurance that any of the defendants will be successful in the outcome of any pending or any potential future lawsuits. The defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the Business Combination are completed may adversely affect the combined company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Additional shares or other equity securities of Pubco may be issued without the approval of Aimei Health or its shareholders, which would dilute the ownership interests of Aimei Health shareholders and may depress the market price of Pubco’s shares.

Additional shares of Pubco or other equity securities of equal or senior rank in the future in connection with, among other things, future acquisitions or repayment of outstanding indebtedness may be issued without the approval of Aimei Health and its shareholders, in a number of circumstances.

Such issuance of additional shares of Pubco or other equity securities of equal or senior rank could have the following effects:

        the proportionate ownership interest in Pubco held by former Aimei Health shareholders will decrease;

        the relative voting strength of shares of Pubco issued to former Aimei Health shareholders may be diminished; or

        the market price for shares of Pubco may decline.

83

Table of Contents

Pubco’s share price may be volatile and could decline substantially.

The market price of Pubco’s Class A Ordinary Shares may be volatile, both because of actual and perceived changes in Pubco’s financial results and prospects, and because of general volatility in the stock market. The factors that could cause fluctuations in Pubco’s share price may include, among other factors discussed in this prospectus, the following:

        actual or anticipated variations in the financial results and prospects of the combined company or other companies in hydrogen business;

        changes in financial estimates by research analysts;

        changes in the market valuations of other companies;

        announcements by Pubco or its competitors of new services or products, expansions, investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;

        mergers or other business combinations involving Pubco;

        additions and departures of key personnel and senior management;

        changes in accounting principles;

        the passage of legislation or other developments affecting Pubco or its industry;

        the trading volume of Pubco’s Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market;

        the release of lockup, escrow or other transfer restrictions on Pubco’s outstanding equity securities or sales of additional equity securities;

        potential litigation or regulatory investigations;

        changes in economic conditions, including fluctuations in global and Chinese economies;

        financial market conditions;

        natural disasters, terrorist acts, acts of war or periods of civil unrest; and

        the realization of some or all of the risks described in this section.

In addition, the stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations from time to time, and the market prices of the equity securities have been extremely volatile and are sometimes subject to sharp price and trading volume changes. These broad market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of Pubco’s Class A Ordinary Shares.

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price.

Sales of substantial amounts of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market after the completion of the Business Combination, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and could materially impair Pubco’s ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares listed after the Business Combination will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Shares of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to certain the existing shareholders of United Hydrogen and to the Sponsor and other Initial Shareholders in connection with the Business Combination, which represents a significant portion of the Pubco’s total capitalization upon closing of the Business Combination, will be relieved from the lock-up restriction on sale upon expiration of the applicable lock-up period and may be available for sale privately or in the public market, subject to certain other restrictions under the applicable laws. The lock-up period applicable to both such existing shareholders of United Hydrogen and the Sponsor is: (i) six (6) months from and after the closing of the Business Combination; (ii) the date following the closing of the Business Combination on which Pubco completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Pubco’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property; or (iii) the date on which the closing sale price of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares has equaled or exceeded $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) consecutive trading day

Table of Contents

period commencing at least 150 days after the closing of the Business Combination. Certain shares of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to be held by United Hydrogen’s certain existing shareholders after the Business Combination are not subject to the aforementioned lock-up restrictions and may be sold in the public market any time after the Business Combination subject to the restrictions in Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act.

The grant and future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of Pubco’s securities upon consummation of the Business Combination.

Pursuant to the registration rights agreements to be entered into in connection with the Business Combination, which are described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, certain shareholders can demand that Pubco register their registrable securities under certain circumstances and will also have piggyback registration rights for these securities in connection with certain registrations of securities that Pubco undertakes. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to file and maintain an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering such securities.

The registration of these securities will permit the public resale of such securities. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares after the Business Combination.

If the Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of financial analysts, the market price of Pubco’s shares may decline.

The market price of Pubco’s shares may decrease as a result of the Business Combination if Pubco does not achieve the perceived benefits of the Business Combination as rapidly, or to the extent anticipated by, financial analysts, or at all, or if the effect of the Business Combination on Pubco’s financial results is not consistent with the expectations of financial analysts. Accordingly, holders of Pubco’s shares may experience a loss as a result of a drop in the market price of Pubco’s shares. In addition, a decline in the market price of Pubco’s shares could adversely affect Pubco’s ability to issue additional securities and obtain financing in the future.

In addition, following the Business Combination, fluctuations in the price of Pubco’s securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the Business Combination, there has not been a public market for Pubco’s securities. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to Pubco’s securities in the Business Combination may not be indicative of the actual price that will prevail in the trading market following the Business Combination. If an active market for Pubco’s securities develops and continues, the trading price of its securities following the Business Combination could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond its control.

The consummation of the Business Combination is subject to a number of conditions and if those conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the Business Combination may not be completed.

The Business Combination Agreement is subject to a number of conditions that must be fulfilled in order to complete the Business Combination. These conditions to the Closing may not be fulfilled in a timely manner or at all, and, accordingly, the Business Combination may not be completed. In addition, the parties can mutually decide to terminate the Business Combination Agreement at any time, before or after shareholder approval, or Aimei Health or United Hydrogen may elect to terminate the Business Agreement in certain other circumstances. See the discussion in this proxy statement/prospectus under the caption, “Proposal No.1 — The Business Combination Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement — Termination.

Termination of the Business Combination could negatively impact Aimei Health.

If the Business Combination is not completed for any reason, including as a result of the shareholders of Aimei Health declining to approve the proposals required to effect the Business Combination, the ongoing business of Aimei Health may be adversely impacted and, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the Business Combination, Aimei Health would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

        Aimei Health may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on its stock price;

        Aimei Health will have incurred substantial expenses and will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Business Combination, whether or not it is completed; and

85

Table of Contents

        since the Business Combination Agreement restricts the conduct of Aimei Health’s businesses prior to completion of the Business Combination, Aimei Health may not have been able to take certain actions during the pendency of the Business Combination that would have benefitted it as an independent company, and the opportunity to take such actions may no longer be available.

Aimei Health will be forced to liquidate the Trust Account if it cannot consummate a business combination by December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association). In the event of a liquidation, Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders will receive approximately $[•] per share and the Aimei Health Rights will expire worthless.

If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination by December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association) and is forced to liquidate, the per-share liquidation distribution will be approximately $[•], without taking into account additional deposits into the Trust Account to further extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination. Furthermore, in such an event, Aimei Health’s Rights will expire worthless as a result of Aimei Health’s failure to complete a business combination.

Aimei Health’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about Aimei Health’s ability to continue as a “going concern.”

As of June 30, 2025, Aimei Health had $2,138 in cash, $44,511,399 in its Trust Account, and working capital deficit of $2,169,328. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, Aimei Health’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. Aimei Health has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs as a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting, and auditing compliance), as well as expenses in connection with its proposed Business Combination with United Hydrogen. Aimei Health cannot assure you that any efforts to raise capital (if required) or to consummate an initial business combination (including the proposed Business Combination with United Hydrogen) will be successful. These factors, among others, raise doubt about Aimei Health’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the issuance date of the unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The unaudited financial statements contained elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus do not include any adjustments that might result from Aimei Health’s inability to continue as a going concern.

You must tender your ordinary shares in order to validly seek redemption at the Meeting.

In connection with tendering your shares for redemption, you must elect either to physically tender your share certificates to Aimei Health’s transfer agent, Continental, or to deliver your ordinary shares to Continental electronically using DTC’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian) System, in each case at least two business days before the Meeting. The requirement for physical or electronic delivery ensures that a redeeming holder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once the Business Combination is consummated. Any failure to observe these procedures will result in your loss of redemption rights in connection with the vote on the Business Combination.

The Initial Shareholders who own ordinary shares and private placement units will not participate in liquidation distributions and, therefore, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether the Business Combination is appropriate.

As of the Record Date, the Initial Shareholders of Aimei Health owned an aggregate of 2,057,000 ordinary shares. They have waived their right to redeem these shares, or to receive distributions with respect to these shares upon the liquidation of the Trust Account if Aimei Health is unable to consummate a business combination. Based on a market price of $[•] per share and $[•] per unit on the Record Date, the value of these shares was approximately $21.8 million. These ordinary shares acquired by the Initial Shareholders prior to the IPO will be worthless if Aimei Health does not consummate a business combination. Consequently, directors’ and officers’ discretion in identifying and selecting United Hydrogen Group Inc. as a suitable target business may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether the terms, conditions, and timing of the Business Combination are appropriate and in Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders’ best interest.

If Aimei Health’s security holders exercise their registration rights with respect to their securities, it may have an adverse effect on the market price of Aimei Health’s securities.

Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders are entitled to make a demand that it registers the resale of their insider shares at any time after the consummation of a business combination. Additionally, Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, officers, and directors are entitled to demand that Aimei Health register the resale of the shares underlying any securities its Initial Shareholders, officers, directors, or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to us at any time after Aimei Health consummates a business combination. If such persons exercise their registration rights with respect to all of their securities, then there will be additional 2,057,000 ordinary shares eligible for trading in the public market. The presence of these additional ordinary shares trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of Aimei Health’s securities. Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders may sell all or a significant portion of these shares upon registration of such shares for resale even if the then trading price of Pubco’s securities is considerably lower than the current trading price of the Aimei Health ordinary shares, which may further exacerbate the ability of securities of Aimei Health (or Pubco upon Closing) to trade at a premium to its current market price.

In the event that a significant number of Public Shares are redeemed, Pubco’s securities may become less liquid following the Business Combination.

If a significant number of public shares are redeemed, Aimei Health may be left with a significantly smaller number of shareholders. As a result, trading in the shares of Pubco may be limited and your ability to sell your shares in the market could be adversely affected. Pubco intends to apply to list its Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, and Nasdaq may not list Pubco’s securities, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in Aimei Health’s securities and subject Aimei Health to additional trading restrictions.

Pubco will be required to meet the initial listing requirements to be listed on Nasdaq following the Business Combination. Pubco may not be able to meet those initial listing requirements or it may not be able to maintain the listing of its securities in the future.

If Pubco fails to meet the listing requirements and Nasdaq does not list its securities on its exchange, the Business Combination will not close. In connection with the shareholder vote on the Business Combination, holders of Aimei Health’s ordinary shares (excluding the Sponsor) have the right to redeem their ordinary shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $[•] per share. Any redemptions of its ordinary shares will also reduce the public float and the number of shareholders that Aimei Health has. In light of these redemption rights, Aimei Health cannot give assurance that it will be able to satisfy either the Nasdaq public float requirement or the Nasdaq minimum number of round lot shareholders currently or as of a particular date. It is possible that, in order to meet the Nasdaq listing requirements, Aimei Health and/or Pubco may have to raise additional funding, either through a private placement or a backstop arrangement, with no assurance that they will be able to obtain the necessary funding on reasonable terms, if any.

In addition, in order to assist its ability to comply with Nasdaq initial listing standards, Pubco may also seek to register with the SEC the resale of the Ordinary Shares held by its current shareholders in addition to the registration of the Ordinary Shares covered by this proxy statement/prospectus. Such additional registration statement, upon effectiveness, would allow for the Ordinary Shares held by nonaffiliates of Pubco to be included in Pubco’s public float for purposes of complying with the Nasdaq listing rules.

However, even if Pubco meets the initial listing requirements, if it is subsequently delisted, Pubco could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

        a limited availability of market quotations for Pubco’s securities;

        reduced liquidity with respect to Pubco’s securities;

        a determination that its shares are a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in Pubco’s securities to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for Pubco’s securities;

        a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for the post-transaction company; and

        a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Legal proceedings in connection with the Business Combination could delay or prevent the completion of the Business Combination.

Lawsuits may be filed against Aimei Health or its directors and officers in connection with the Business Combination. Defending this or any additional lawsuits could require Aimei Health to incur significant costs and draw the attention of its management team away from the Business Combination. Further, the defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the Business Combination is consummated may adversely affect the post-combination Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Such legal proceedings could delay or prevent the Business Combination from becoming effective within the agreed-upon timeframe.

Pubco’s ability to successfully effect the Business Combination and to be successful thereafter will be dependent upon the efforts of the key personnel of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of United Hydrogen and its financial condition could suffer as a result.

United Hydrogen and Aimei Health’s key personnel and their efforts play a key role in the Business Combination. Their ability to successfully effect the Business Combination is dependent on the efforts of the key personnel of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. It is possible that United Hydrogen will lose some key personnel, the loss of which could negatively impact the operations and profitability of United Hydrogen. United Hydrogen anticipates that some or all of its management will remain in place.

The success of United Hydrogen depends to a significant degree upon the continuous contributions of senior management, certain of whom would be difficult to replace. Departure by certain of United Hydrogen officers could have a material adverse effect on Pubco’s business, financial condition, or operating results.

Aimei Health can provide no assurances that its due diligence review has identified all material risks associated with the Business Combination, and you may be less protected as an investor from any material issues with respect to United Hydrogen’s business, including any material omissions or misstatements contained in this proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination, than an investor in an initial public offering.

Prior to entering into the Business Combination Agreement, Aimei Health conducted a due diligence review of United Hydrogen and its subsidiaries, including its business and operations; however, Aimei Health cannot assure you that its due diligence review identified all material issues, and certain unexpected risks may arise, and previous known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with Aimei Health’s preliminary risk analysis. In addition, the scope of due diligence Aimei Health has conducted in conjunction with the Business Combination may be different than would typically be conducted in the event United Hydrogen pursued an underwritten initial public offering. In a typical initial public offering, the underwriters of the offering conduct due diligence on the company to be taken public, and following the offering, the underwriters are subject to liability to private investors for any material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement. While potential investors in an initial public offering typically have a private right of action against the underwriters of the offering for any of these material misstatements or omissions, there are no underwriters of the ordinary shares that will be issued pursuant to the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, and thus no corresponding right of action is available to the shareholders of Aimei Health for any material misstatements or omissions in such registration statement and this proxy statement/prospectus. Thus, as a shareholder, you may be exposed to future losses, impairment charges, write-downs, write-offs, or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on United Hydrogen’s financial condition, results of operations, and the price of its securities, causing you to lose some or all of your investment without recourse against an underwriter that may have been available had United Hydrogen been taken public through an underwritten public offering.

The Sponsor and certain directors and executive officers of Aimei Health have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of the shareholders of Aimei Health generally in recommending that shareholders vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and approval of the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

In considering the recommendation of the Aimei Health board of directors to vote in favor of the Business Combination, shareholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as shareholders, the Sponsor and certain of Aimei Health’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other shareholders generally. Aimei Health’s directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, in recommending to shareholders that they approve the Business Combination and in agreeing to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination. Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things, the fact that:

        If the Business Combination with United Hydrogen or another business combination is not consummated by December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association), Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding Public Shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and the Aimei Health board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, which were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 prior to the Aimei Health IPO, are expected to be worthless because the holders are not entitled to participate in any redemption or distribution of proceeds in the Trust Account with respect to such shares. On the other hand, if the Business Combination is consummated, each outstanding Aimei Health Ordinary Share will be converted into one Pubco Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment as described in the Business Combination Agreement.

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor will be liable under certain circumstances described herein to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Aimei Health for services rendered to or, contracted for or, for products sold to, Aimei Health. If Aimei Health consummates a business combination, on the other hand, Aimei Health will be liable for all such claims.

        Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders acquired the Founder Shares, which will be converted into Pubco Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 prior to the Aimei Health IPO. Based on the average of the high and low prices for Aimei Health ordinary shares on Nasdaq on the Record Date, the value of the Founder Shares outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•].

        The Sponsor acquired 332,000 Private Placement Units, which will be converted into Pubco Class A Shares in connection with the Business Combination, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,320,000 in the Aimei Health’s IPO. Based on the price of the Public Units on Nasdaq of $[•] on the Record Date, the value of the Private Placement Units outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•].

        As a result of the prices at which Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders acquired the Founder Shares and the Private Placement Units, and their current value, the Initial Shareholders could make a substantial profit after the completion of the Business Combination even if Aimei Health Public Shareholders lose money on their investments as a result of a decrease in the post-combination value of their Public Shares.

        The Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors and their affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on Aimei Health’s behalf, such as identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combinations. However, if Aimei Health fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, they will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement. Accordingly, Aimei Health may not be able to reimburse these expenses if the Business Combination or another business combination is not completed by December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association).

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the aggregate dollar amount of non-reimbursable funds would be approximately $0.5 million, reflecting the market value of Founder Shares, the market value of Private Placement Units, and out-of-pocket unpaid reimbursable expenses.

        Aimei Health has provisions in the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association waiving the corporate opportunities doctrine on an ongoing basis, which means that Aimei Health’s officers and directors have not been obligated and continue to not be obligated to bring all corporate opportunities to Aimei Health.

        The Business Combination Agreement provides for the continued indemnification of Aimei Health’s current directors and officers and the continuation of directors and officers liability insurance covering Aimei Health’s current directors and officers.

        The Sponsor, the affiliates of the Sponsor, and Aimei Health’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, make loans from time to time to Aimei Health to fund certain capital requirements (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s

89

Table of Contents

discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. As of June 30, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

        The Sponsor agreed, commencing from the date that the Aimei Health’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities, and administrative services, as Aimei Health may require from time to time. Aimei Health agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months. As of June 30, 2025, the unpaid balance was $180,000, which was included in amount due to related party balance.

        On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2025, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. The deposit of the first through tenth monthly extension fee is evidenced by a Monthly Extension Promissory Note. The first and second Monthly Extension Promissory Notes are in the principal amount of $227,700 each, shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($113,850 each). The third through tenth Monthly Extension Promissory Note is in the principal amount of $150,000, also shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($75,000 each). Each Monthly Extension Promissory Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Sponsor and United Hydrogen have the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note, in whole or in part, into Private Units of Aimei Health, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, each consisting of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of Aimei Health, immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, by providing Aimei Health with written notices of their intention to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note at least two business days prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

The personal and financial interests of the Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors may have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting United Hydrogen, completing the Business Combination and may influence their operation of Pubco following the Business Combination. This risk may become more acute as the deadline of December 6, 2025 (or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association) for completing an initial business combination nears.

In addition, Aimei Health has not adopted a policy that expressly prohibits its directors, officers, security holders, or affiliates from having a direct or indirect pecuniary or financial interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by Aimei Health or in any transaction to which Aimei Health is a party or has an interest. Aimei Health does not have a policy that expressly prohibits any such persons from engaging for their own account in business activities of the types conducted by United Hydrogen. Accordingly, such persons or entities may have a conflict between their interests and Aimei Health’s.

The Aimei Health board of directors and its officers was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the Transactions and in recommending to the shareholders of Aimei Health that they vote “FOR” the proposals presented at the Meeting. In considering the recommendations of the Aimei Health board of directors to vote for the proposals, its shareholders should consider these interests.

The exercise of Aimei Health’s directors’ and officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Transactions may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Transactions or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in Aimei Health’s shareholder’ best interest.

In the period leading up to Closing, events may occur that, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, would require Aimei Health to agree to amend the Business Combination Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by United Hydrogen or to waive rights that Aimei Health is entitled to under, or conditions of, the Business Combination

90

Table of Contents

Agreement. Such events could arise because of a request by United Hydrogen to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement or the occurrence of other events that would have a material adverse effect on United Hydrogen’s business and would entitle Aimei Health to terminate the Business Combination Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be at Aimei Health’s discretion, acting through the Aimei Health board of directors, to grant its consent or waive those rights or conditions. The existence of the financial and personal interests of the directors described in the preceding risk factors (and described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus) may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the officers and directors between what he, she or they may believe is best for Aimei Health and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Aimei Health does not believe there will be any material changes or waivers that Aimei Health’s directors and officers would be likely to make after the mailing of this proxy statement/prospectus. While certain changes could be made without further shareholder approval, Aimei Health will circulate a new or amended proxy statement/prospectus or supplement thereto if changes to the terms of the Transactions that would have a material impact on its shareholders are required prior to the vote on the Business Combination Proposal.

Neither Aimei Health nor its shareholders will have the protection of any indemnification, escrow, price adjustment, or other provisions that allow for a post-closing adjustment to be made to the total merger consideration in the event that any of the representations and warranties made by United Hydrogen in the Business Combination Agreement ultimately proves to be inaccurate or incorrect.

The representations and warranties made by United Hydrogen and Aimei Health to each other in the Business Combination Agreement will not survive the consummation of the Business Combination. As a result, Aimei Health and its shareholders will not have the protection of any indemnification, escrow, price adjustment, or other provisions that allow for a post-closing adjustment to be made to the total merger consideration if any representation or warranty made by United Hydrogen in the Business Combination Agreement proves to be inaccurate or incorrect. Accordingly, to the extent such representations or warranties are incorrect, Aimei Health would have no indemnification claim with respect thereto and its financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected.

The shareholders of Aimei Health who are not affiliates of the Sponsor may be exposed to greater risk as a result of becoming shareholders of the combined company through the Business Combination rather than acquiring securities of Pubco directly in an underwritten public offering as a result of the differences between the two transaction structures, including that the Business Combination did not involve an independent due diligence review by an underwriter and that the Sponsor has conflicts of interest in connection with the Business Combination.

Because there is no independent third-party underwriter involved in the Business Combination or the issuance of Aimei Health’s securities in connection therewith, investors will not receive the benefit of any outside independent review of the respective finances and operations of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen and their subsidiaries. Underwritten public offerings of securities conducted by a licensed broker-dealer are subjected to a due diligence review by the underwriter or dealer manager to satisfy statutory duties under the Securities Act, the rules of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and the national securities exchange where such securities are listed. Additionally, underwriters or dealer-managers conducting such public offerings are subject to liability for any material misstatements or omissions in a registration statement filed in connection with the public offering. As no such review will be conducted in connection with the Business Combination, the shareholders of Aimei Health must rely on the information in this proxy statement/prospectus and will not have the benefit of an independent review and investigation of the type normally performed by an independent underwriter in a public securities offering.

If Pubco became a public company through an underwritten public offering, the underwriters would be subject to liability under Section 11 of the Securities Act for material misstatements and omissions in the initial public offering registration statement. In general, an underwriter is able to avoid liability under Section 11 if it can prove that, it “had, after reasonable investigation, reasonable ground to believe and did believe, at the time the registration statement became effective, that the statements therein (other than the audited financial statements) were true and that there was no omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.” In order to fulfill its duty to conduct a “reasonable investigation,” an underwriter will, in addition to conducting a significant amount of due diligence on its own, usually require that an issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm provide a comfort letter with respect to certain numbers included in the registration statement and will require the law firm for the issuer to include in its legal opinion to the underwriters a statement that such counsel is not aware of any material misstatements or omissions in the initial public offering registration statement

Table of Contents

(“Counsel Negative Assurance Statements”). Auditor comfort letters and Counsel Negative Assurance Statements are generally not required in connection with private companies going public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company, such as Aimei Health, and no auditor comfort letters or Counsel Negative Assurance Statements have been requested or obtained in connection with the Business Combination or the preparation of this proxy statement/prospectus.

In addition, the amount of due diligence conducted by Aimei Health and its advisors in connection with the Business Combination may not be as high as would have been undertaken by an underwriter in connection with an initial public offering of Pubco. Accordingly, it is possible that defects in United Hydrogen’s business or problems with United Hydrogen’s management that would have been discovered if Pubco conducted an underwritten public offering will not be discovered in connection with the Business Combination, which could adversely affect the market price of the Pubco Ordinary Shares.

Unlike an underwritten initial public offering, the initial trading of the Pubco’s securities will not benefit from the book-building process undertaken by underwriters that helps to inform efficient price discovery with respect to opening trades of newly listed shares and underwriter support to help stabilize, maintain or affect the public price of the new issue immediately after listing. The lack of such a process in connection with the listing of Pubco’s securities on Nasdaq could result in diminished investor demand, inefficiencies in pricing, and a more volatile public price for Pubco’s securities during the period immediately following the listing.

Furthermore, the Sponsor and certain of Aimei Health’s directors and executive officers have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of the shareholders of Aimei Health generally. Such interests may have influenced Aimei Health’s directors in making their recommendation that you vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus. In addition, the value of the Sponsor’s Founder Shares will be significantly greater than the amount the Sponsor paid to purchase such shares in the event the Business Combination is completed, even if the Business Combination causes the trading price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to materially decline.

Activities taken by existing shareholders of Aimei Health to increase the likelihood of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus could have a depressive effect on Aimei Health’s securities.

At any time prior to the Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Aimei Health or its securities, the Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors, or any of their respective affiliates and/or their respective affiliates may purchase shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against the Business Combination Proposal, or execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or they may enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire Aimei Health ordinary shares or vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of satisfaction of the requirements to consummate the Transactions where it appears that such requirements would otherwise not be met. Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on Aimei Health’s securities. For example, as a result of these arrangements, an investor or holder may have the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than the market price and may therefore be more likely to sell the shares they own, either prior to or immediately after the Meeting.

The Sponsor may beneficially own a significant equity interest in Aimei Health and may take actions that conflict with your interests.

The interests of the Sponsor may not align with the interests of Aimei Health and its other shareholders. The Sponsor is in the business of making investments in companies and may acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with Aimei Health. The Sponsor and its respective affiliates may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to Aimei Health’s business and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to Aimei Health.

Aimei Health and United Hydrogen have incurred and expect to incur significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is completed, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by Aimei Health if the Business Combination is not completed.

Each of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen has incurred and expects that it will incur significant, non-recurring costs in connection with the Business Combination and operating as a public company following the Closing. Aimei Health and United Hydrogen may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. Aimei Health and United Hydrogen will also incur significant legal, financial advisor, accounting, banking, and consulting fees, fees relating to regulatory filings and notices, SEC filing fees, printing and mailing fees, and other costs associated with the Business Combination, which will be paid by Pubco following the Closing. Even if the Business Combination is not completed, Aimei Health expects to incur approximately $0.5 million in expenses. These expenses will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by Aimei Health if the Business Combination is not completed.

Aimei Health may not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company should the transaction be subject to review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited.

Although we are not aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for completion of the Business Combination, there can be no assurance that such additional approval or actions will be obtained within the required time period. This includes any potential review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) on account of certain foreign ownership restrictions on U.S. businesses. If CFIUS considers Aimei Health a “foreign person” under such rules and regulations and United Hydrogen a U.S. business that may affect national security, we could be subject to such foreign ownership restrictions and/or CFIUS review. If the Business Combination with United Hydrogen falls within the scope of foreign ownership restrictions, we may be unable to consummate the Business Combination. In addition, if the Business Combination falls within CFIUS’ jurisdiction, we may be required to make a mandatory filing or determine to submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the Business Combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination.

The Sponsor of Aimei Health’s is Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability. Further, the person exercising control over the Sponsor, Huang Han, is a resident of the PRC. Accordingly, the Sponsor is controlled by a non-U.S. person, and CFIUS may consider Aimei Health to be a “foreign person.”

Although we do not believe United Hydrogen is a U.S. business that may affect national security, CFIUS may take a different view and decide to block or delay the Business Combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to the Business Combination, order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company if Aimei Health had proceeded without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, or impose penalties if CFIUS believes that the mandatory notification requirement applied. Additionally, the laws and regulations of other U.S. government entities may impose review or approval procedures on account of any foreign ownership by the Sponsor.

The foreign ownership limitations, and the potential impact of CFIUS, may prevent us from consummating the Business Combination with United Hydrogen. If Aimei Health were to seek an initial business combination other than the Business Combination, the pool of potential targets with which it could complete an initial business combination may be limited as a result of any such regulatory restriction. Moreover, the process of any government review, whether by CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy. Because we have only a limited time to complete an initial business combination, our failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time period may require us to liquidate. If we liquidate, this will cause you to lose any potential investment opportunity in United Hydrogen and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company, and Aimei Health’s rights will expire worthless.

If Aimei Health were deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, it may be forced to abandon its efforts to complete the Business Combination and instead be required to liquidate.

As indicated above, Aimei Health completed its initial public offering on December 6, 2023, and has operated as a blank check company searching for a target business with which to consummate an initial business combination since such time. On January 24, 2024, the SEC adopted final rules (the “SPAC Final Rules”) relating to, among other matters, the extent to which special purpose acquisition companies such as Aimei Health could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The SPAC Final Rules

93

Table of Contents

provide that whether a SPAC is an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the subject to the Investment Company Act is based on particular facts and circumstances. A specific duration period of a SPAC is not the sole determinant, but one of the long-standing factors to consider in determination of a SPAC’s status under the Investment Company Act. A SPAC could be deemed as an investment company at any stage of its operation. The determination of a SPAC’s status as an investment company includes analysis of a SPAC’s activities, depending upon the facts and circumstances, including but not limited to, the nature of SPAC assets and income, the activities of a SPAC’s officers, directors and employees, the duration of a SPAC, the manner a SPAC holding itself out to investors, and the merging with an investment company. The SPAC Final Rules were published in the Federal Register on February 26, 2024, and became effective on July 1, 2024 (125 days after publication in the Federal Register).

Aimei Health’s business will be to identify and complete a business combination and thereafter to operate the post-business combination business or assets for the long term. Aimei Health does not believe that its activities or the Business Combination or other transactions described herein will subject it to the Investment Company Act. To this end, the proceeds held in the Trust Account may only be held in an interest-bearing bank demand deposit account, or invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. By restricting the investment of the proceeds to these instruments, and by having a business plan targeted at acquiring and growing businesses for the long term (rather than on buying and selling businesses in the manner of a merchant bank or private equity fund), Aimei Health intends to avoid being deemed an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

It is possible that a claim could be made that Aimei Health has been operating as an unregistered investment company. It is also possible that the investment of funds from the initial public offering during its life as a blank check company, and the earning and use of interest from such investment, could increase the likelihood of Aimei Health being found to have been operating as an unregistered investment company more than if Aimei Health sought to potentially mitigate this risk by holding such funds as cash. If Aimei Health was deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act and found to have been operating as an unregistered investment company, it may be required to change its operations, wind down its operations, or register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act and subject to other burdensome compliance requirements. Unless Aimei Health is able to modify its activities so that it would not be deemed an investment company, it may be unable to consummate the initial business combination and instead be forced to liquidate. If Aimei Health is forced to liquidate, investors would not be able to participate in any benefits of owning stock in an operating business, including the potential appreciation of its shares following such a transaction and Aimei Health’s rights would expire worthless.

If, following the consummation of the Business Combination, securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about Pubco, its business, or its market, or if they change their recommendations regarding Pubco’s shares adversely, then the price and trading volume of Pubco’s shares could decline.

The trading market for Pubco’s shares will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about Pubco, its business, its market, or its competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, any may never, publish research on Aimei Health or Pubco. If any of the analysts who may cover Pubco change their recommendation associated with its shares adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about its competitors, then the price of Pubco’s shares would likely decrease. If any analysts who may cover Aimei Health were to cease coverage of Pubco or fail to regularly publish reports on it, Pubco could lose visibility in the financial markets, leading its share price or trading volume to decline.

If Aimei Health is unable to complete the Transactions or another initial business combination by December 6, 2025 (if extended to the maximum 24-month period after the closing of the IPO or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association), Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding public shares and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholder and the Aimei Health board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, third parties may bring claims against Aimei Health and, as a result, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share liquidation price received by shareholders could be less than $10.10 per share.

According to the Aimei Health amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, Aimei Health must complete a business combination before December 6, 2025 (assuming extensions to the maximum 24-month period after the closing of the IPO), if Aimei Health elects to make permitted extensions. Aimei Health may not be able to complete a business

combination within such time period. If Aimei Health has not completed a business combination within such time period, it must cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding public shares and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholder and the Aimei Health board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, third parties may bring claims against Aimei Health. Accordingly, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to claims which could take priority over those of Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders. In such case, Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders may only receive $10.10 per share initially held in the Trust Account, and the rights will expire worthless. In certain circumstances, Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders may receive less than $10.10 per share on the redemption of their shares. If third parties bring claims against Aimei Health, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.10 per share.

Additionally, if Aimei Health is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it which is not dismissed, or if Aimei Health otherwise enters compulsory or court supervised liquidation, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in its bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of its shareholder. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, Aimei Health may not be able to return to its Public Shareholders at least $10.10 per share. Further, in such an event the Aimei Health Rights will expire worthless.

The shareholders of Aimei Health may be held liable for claims by third parties against Aimei Health to the extent of distributions received by them.

If Aimei Health is unable to complete the Transactions or another business combination within the completion window, Aimei Health will (i) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five (5) business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares or distribute the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest earned to pay liquidation expenses) to the holders of Public Shares, on a pro rata basis; and (ii) as promptly as practicable, cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up of Aimei Health’s affairs. Aimei Health cannot assure you that it will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against Aimei Health. As such, the shareholders of Aimei Health could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of its shareholders may extend well beyond the third anniversary of the date of distribution. Accordingly, Aimei Health cannot assure you that third parties will not seek to recover from its shareholders amounts owed to them by Aimei Health.

If Aimei Health is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it which is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover all amounts received by Aimei Health’s shareholder. Furthermore, because Aimei Health intends to distribute the proceeds held in the Trust Account to its public shareholder promptly after the expiration of the time period to complete a business combination, this may be viewed or interpreted as giving preference to its public shareholder over any potential creditors with respect to access to or distributions from its assets. Furthermore, the Aimei Health board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to Aimei Health’s creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and Aimei Health to claims of punitive damages, by paying Public Shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. Aimei Health cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against it for these reasons.

Becoming a public company through a business combination rather than an underwritten offering presents risks to unaffiliated investors of Pubco. Subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, Pubco may be required to subsequently take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment, or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations, and the price of Pubco securities, which could cause Pubco shareholders to lose some or all of their investment.

A traditional initial public offering involves a company engaging underwriters to purchase its shares and resell them to the public. An underwritten offering imposes statutory liability on the underwriters for material misstatements or omissions contained in the registration statement unless they are able to sustain the burden of proving that they did not know and could not reasonably have discovered such material misstatements or omissions. This is referred to as a “due diligence” defense and results in the underwriters undertaking a detailed review of the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the issuer and its subsidiaries. In a traditional initial public offering, investors may be able to recover damages from the underwriters in the event of misstatements and omissions in the registration statement and unavailability of the due diligence defense. Going public via a business combination with a special

95

Table of Contents

purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) does not involve any underwriters and may therefore result in less extensive vetting of the operating company’s information that is presented to the public. In addition, going public via a business combination with a SPAC does not involve a book building process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. In a traditional initial public offering, the initial value of a company is set by investors who indicate the price at which they are prepared to purchase shares from the underwriters. In the case of a business combination involving a SPAC, the value of the target company is established by means of negotiations between the target company and the SPAC. The process of establishing the value of a target company in a SPAC business combination may be less effective than a traditional initial public offering book-building process and also does not reflect events that may have occurred between the date of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing.

In addition, while traditional initial public offerings are sometimes oversubscribed, resulting in additional potential demand for shares in the after-market following the initial public offering, there is no comparable process of generating investor demand in connection with a business combination between a target company and a SPAC, which may result in lower demand for Pubco’s securities after the Closing, and in turn could decrease liquidity and trading prices as well as increase the trading volatility of Pubco’s securities. Based on the assumptions of no redemption and maximum contractual redemptions set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus regarding the number of Pubco Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding upon consummation of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma, the sole beneficial owner of Pubco’s Class B Ordinary Shares, having ten (10) votes per share, will own approximately 93.15% and 93.53%, respectively, of the total voting power of all Pubco Ordinary Shares voting together with the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares as a single class. The remaining Pubco shareholders will own 62,763,512.50 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, having one (1) vote per share, will own approximately 7.12% and 6.46% respectively of the total voting power of all Pubco Ordinary Shares voting together with the Class B Ordinary Shares as a single class. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control which could deprive shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium to the trading price for the shares as part of a sale of Pubco, and in turn could affect the market demand for Pubco’s securities.

Becoming a public company through a business combination rather than an underwritten offering, as Pubco is seeking to do, presents risks to unaffiliated investors as described above. As a result, Pubco, as the post-Business Combination company, may be forced to later write down or write off assets, restructure its operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in it reporting losses. Additionally, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and not have an immediate impact on Pubco’s liquidity, the fact that Pubco reports charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about it or its securities. In addition, charges of this nature may make it difficult for Pubco to obtain future financing on favorable terms or at all.

The SEC has adopted final rules to regulate SPACs. Certain of the procedures that Aimei Health, a potential business combination target, or others may determine to undertake in connection with such rules may increase the costs and the time needed to complete a business combination and may constrain the circumstances under which Aimei Health could complete a business combination.

On January 24, 2024, the SEC adopted final rules (the “SPAC Final Rules”) relating to, among other items, disclosures in SEC filings in connection with business combination transactions between SPACs, such as Aimei Health, and private operating companies; the financial statement requirements applicable to transactions involving shell companies; the use of projections in SEC filings in connection with proposed business combination transactions; the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, including a guidance describing circumstances in which a SPAC could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, such as its duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities. Certain of the procedures that Aimei Health, a potential business combination target, or others may determine to undertake in connection with the SPAC Final Rules, or pursuant to the SEC’s views expressed in the SPAC Final Rules, may increase the costs of negotiating and completing a business combination and the time required to consummate the circumstances under which Aimei Health could complete a business combination.

If Aimei Health seeks shareholder approval of its business combination, its Sponsor, officers, and directors have agreed to vote in favor of such business combination, regardless of how its Public Shareholders vote.

Unlike other blank check companies in which the initial shareholders agree to vote their sponsor shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the Public Shareholders in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor, officers, and directors of Aimei Health have agreed (and any permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with Aimei Health, to vote any Founder Shares and Private Shares held by them, as well as any public shares purchased during or after the IPO, in favor of the

96

Table of Contents

business combination with United Hydrogen. The Founder Shares and Private Shares in the aggregate represent approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health as of the Record Date. As a result, assuming that only a quorum of [•] of Aimei Health’s ordinary shares is present in person or by proxy at the Meeting, and all such minimum number of shares representing a quorum are voted, the Ordinary Resolution Proposals would not require the affirmative vote of shares owned by Public Shareholders in order to have them approved, and the Merger Proposal would only require the affirmative vote of [•] shares owned by Public Shareholders, or approximately [13.8]% of the shares owned by Public Shareholders, in order to have it approved. Accordingly, if Aimei Health seeks shareholder approval of its initial business combination, it is more likely that the necessary shareholder approval will be received than would be the case if such persons agreed to vote their Founder Shares and Private Shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders.

The Sponsor of Aimei Health has the right to extend the term Aimei Health has to consummate its business combination, without providing shareholders with redemption rights.

Aimei Health has a period of 12 months from the closing of its IPO to consummate its initial business combination and thereafter, if it requires additional time to consummate its initial business combination, its board of directors may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to 12 times, each by an additional one-month period (for a total of up to 24 months to complete a business combination), subject to the authorization by the board of directors and the deposit of additional funds into the Trust Account by its Sponsor or its affiliates or designees as described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The shareholders of Aimei Health will not be entitled to vote or redeem their shares in connection with any such extension. In order for the time available for Aimei Health to consummate its initial business combination to be extended, its Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $227,700 (or $0.033 per Public Share) for each one-month extension, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On February 5, 2024, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). Any such payments may be made in the form of a non-interest-bearing loan from Aimei Health’s Sponsor or its affiliates or designees and may be repaid, if at all, from funds released to Aimei Health upon completion of the initial business combination. Any obligation to repay such loans may reduce the amount available to Aimei Health to pay as purchase price in the initial business combination, and/or may reduce the amount of funds available to the combined company following the initial business combination. This feature is different than the traditional special purpose acquisition company structure, in which any extension of the company’s period to complete a business combination requires a vote of the company’s shareholders and shareholders have the right to redeem their public shares in connection with such vote, and which do not provide the Sponsor with the right to loan funds to the company to fund extension payments.

The requirement that Aimei Health completes its business combination within the prescribed time frame may give potential target businesses leverage in negotiating a business combination and may decrease Aimei Health’s ability to conduct due diligence on potential business combination targets as the dissolution deadline approaches, which could undermine Aimei Health’s ability to complete a business combination on terms that would produce value for the shareholders of Aimei Health.

Any potential target business with which Aimei Health enters into negotiations concerning a business combination will be aware that Aimei Health must complete a business combination within 12 months from the closing of its IPO (or up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO if it extends the period of time to consummate a business combination to the maximum permitted). Consequently, such target business may obtain leverage over Aimei Health in negotiating a business combination, knowing that if Aimei Health does not complete a business combination with that particular target business, it may be unable to complete a business combination with any target business. This risk will increase as Aimei Health nears the timeframe described above. In addition, Aimei Health may have limited time to conduct due diligence and may enter into a business combination on terms that it would have rejected upon a more comprehensive investigation.

97

Table of Contents

Aimei Health may not be able to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame or the Sponsor of Aimei Health may decide not to extend the term it has to consummate a business, in which case Aimei Health would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and it would redeem its public shares and liquidate, and the rights will be worthless.

Aimei Health may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to 12 times, each by an additional one-month period (for a total of up to 24 months to complete a business combination), subject to the board of directors authorizing such extension and the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account. However, the Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for Aimei Health to complete the initial business combination.

On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2024, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the deadline for completing of an initial business combination was extended to October 6, 2025 and the Sponsor intends to further deposit additional funds into the Trust Account to extend it to complete an initial business combination.

If the Sponsor does not further extend the deadline for completing of an initial business combination by depositing the requisite amount in the Trust Account as stipulated or if Aimei Health have not completed its initial business combination (including the proposed Business Combination with United Hydrogen) within the deadline, as extended, Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five (5) business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) and, as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to its obligations under applicable law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the rights will be worthless.

Aimei Health’s Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors, and their affiliates may elect to purchase shares from Public Shareholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float” of its ordinary shares.

In connection with seeking shareholder approval of its initial business combination and offering Public Shareholders the right to redeem their shares, Aimei Health’s Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors, or their affiliates may purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of the initial business combination, although they are under no obligation to do so. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of its shares is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that Aimei Health’s Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors, or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from Public Shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The price per share paid in any such transaction may be different than the amount per share a public shareholder would receive if it elected to redeem its shares in connection with the initial business combination.

None of the Sponsor or Aimei Health’s directors, officers, advisors, or their affiliates will make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller. Any Aimei Health ordinary shares purchased by the Sponsor or Aimei Health’s directors, officers, advisors, or their affiliates will not (i) be purchased at a price higher than the price offered through the redemption process in the Redemption (namely, the per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account), (ii) be voted in favor of the Business Combination, or (iii) have redemption rights, and in the event that such shares do carry redemption rights, those rights will be waived by each of the Sponsor or Aimei Health’s directors, officers, advisors, or their affiliates. The purpose of these purchases could be to increase the amount

98

Table of Contents

of cash available to Aimei Health for use in the Business Combination to satisfy the closing condition that requires Aimei Health to have a minimum amount of cash upon the consummation of the Business Combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of such purchases could be, among other things, to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of the initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements with respect to the private purchase of Aimei Health ordinary shares by the persons described above have been entered into with any such investor or holder. In the event of such purposes, prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve the Business Combination, Aimei Health will disclose in a Form 8-K (i) the amount of Public Shares purchased outside of the redemption offer by the Sponsor or its affiliates, along with the purchase price; (ii) the purpose of the purchases by the Sponsor or its affiliates; (iii) the impact, if any, of the purchases by the Sponsor or its affiliates on the likelihood that the Business Combination transaction will be approved; (iv) the identities of shareholder who sold to the Sponsor or its affiliates (if not purchased on the open market) or the nature of shareholders who sold to the Sponsor or its affiliates; and (v) the number of Public Shares for which Aimei Health has received redemption requests pursuant to its redemption offer.

In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of Aimei Health’s ordinary shares and the number of beneficial holders of Aimei Health’s securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing, or trading of its securities on a national securities exchange.

If third parties bring claims against Aimei Health, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.10 per share.

The placement of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against Aimei Health. Although Aimei Health will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses, or other entities with which it does business execute agreements waiving any right, title, interest, or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the Public Shareholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or, even if they execute such agreements, they may not be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility, or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against Aimei Health’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, Aimei Health’s management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if it believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial than any alternative. Further, a court may not uphold the validity of such agreements. Making such a request of potential target businesses may make an acquisition proposal less attractive to them and, to the extent prospective target businesses refuse to execute such a waiver, it may limit the field of potential target businesses that Aimei Health might pursue.

Examples of possible instances where Aimei Health may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third-party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by Aimei Health’s management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where Management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts, or agreements with Aimei Health and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. Upon redemption of Aimei Health’s public shares, if it is unable to complete a business combination within the prescribed timeframe, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with a business combination, it will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against it. Accordingly, the per-share redemption amount received by Public Shareholders could be less than the $10.10 per share initially held in the Trust Account, due to claims of such creditors.

If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination and distribute the proceeds held in trust to its Public Shareholders, the Sponsor has agreed (subject to certain exceptions) that it will be liable to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.10 per share by the claims of target businesses or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Aimei Health for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to it. Aimei Health believes that the primary assets of the Sponsor are comprised of Aimei Health securities and therefore no assurance can be given that it will have sufficient liquid assets to satisfy such obligations if it is required to do so. Therefore, the per-share distribution from the Trust Account may be less than $10.00, plus interest, due to such claims. Additionally, if Aimei Health is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it which is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law and may

99

Table of Contents

be included in Aimei Health’s bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of the shareholders of Aimei Health. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, Aimei Health may not be able to return to the Public Shareholders at least $10.00.

Aimei Health may not have sufficient funds to satisfy the indemnification claims of its directors and executive officers.

Aimei Health has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, Aimei Health’s officers and directors have agreed to waive any right, title, interest, or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and to not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. Accordingly, any indemnification provided will be able to be satisfied by us only if (i) Aimei Health has sufficient funds outside of the Trust Account or (ii) Aimei Health consummates an initial business combination. Aimei Health’s obligation to indemnify its officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against its officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit Aimei Health and its shareholders. Furthermore, a shareholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent Aimei Health pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against Aimei Health’s officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

Aimei Health’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of its Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders.

In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below $10.10 per public share and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Aimei Health’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Aimei Health currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on its behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations, it is possible that the independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. For example, the cost of such legal action may be deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or the independent directors may determine that a favorable outcome is not likely. If the independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders may be reduced below $10.10 per share.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to its Public Shareholders, Aimei Health files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of Public Shareholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by such shareholders in connection with Aimei Health’s liquidation may be reduced.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to its Public Shareholders, Aimei Health files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law and may be included in Aimei Health’s bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of the shareholders of Aimei Health. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by Public Shareholders in connection with Aimei Health’s liquidation may be reduced.

If Aimei Health is unable to consummate its business combination within up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO, if it extends the period of time to consummate a business combination, the Public Shareholders may be forced to wait up to 24 months before redemption from the Trust Account.

If Aimei Health is unable to consummate a business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, Aimei Health will (i) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five (5) business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares or distribute the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest earned to pay liquidation expenses) to the holders of Public Shares, on a pro rata basis; and (ii) as promptly as practicable, cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up of Aimei Health’s affairs. If Aimei Health is required to windup, liquidate the Trust Account, and distribute such amount therein, pro rata, to its Public Shareholders, as part of any liquidation process, such winding up, liquidation, and distribution must comply with the applicable provisions of applicable Cayman Islands law. In that case, investors may be forced to wait up to 24 months before

the redemption proceeds of the Trust Account become available to them and they receive the return of their pro rata portion of the proceeds from the Trust Account. Only after the expiration of this full time period will public security holders be entitled to distributions from the Trust Account if Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination. Accordingly, investors’ funds may be unavailable to them until after such date and to liquidate your investment, public security holders may be forced to sell their public shares, potentially at a loss. Aimei Health has no obligation to return funds to investors prior to the date of its redemption or liquidation unless it consummates a business combination prior thereto and only then in cases where investors have sought to redeem their ordinary shares. Only upon redemption or any liquidation will Public Shareholders be entitled to distributions if Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination.

Holders of rights will not have redemption rights with respect to such securities.

If Aimei Health is unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period and it redeems the funds held in the Trust Account, the rights will expire and holders of such securities will not receive any of the amounts held in the Trust Account in exchange for their rights.

Changes in laws, regulations, or rules, or a failure to comply with any laws, regulations, or rules, may adversely affect the Business Combination and the value of Pubco’s securities.

The listing of Aimei Health’s (and, after consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco’s) securities are subject to laws, regulations, and rules enacted by national, regional, and local governments and Nasdaq. Aimei Health and Pubco are required to comply with certain SEC, Nasdaq, and other legal or regulatory requirements for the Business Combination and the listing of securities. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws, regulations and rules may be time consuming and costly. Those laws, regulations, or rules and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on Pubco’s business, investments, and results of operations and the value of Pubco’s securities.

Because Aimei Health and United Hydrogen are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, including in the event the Business Combination is not completed, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited.

Both Aimei Health and United Hydrogen are exempted companies incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Aimei Health’s and/or United Hydrogen’s directors or officers, or to enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against Aimei Health’s and/or United Hydrogen’s directors or officers.

The corporate affairs of both Aimei Health and/or United Hydrogen are governed by their respective amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Cayman Companies Act, and the common law of the Cayman Islands. Aimei Health is also subject to the federal securities laws of the United States as is Pubco by virtue of this proxy statement/prospectus. The rights of Aimei Health shareholders to take action against Aimei Health’s directors, actions by minority Aimei Health shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of Aimei Health’s directors to Aimei Health shareholders under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedence in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of Aimei Health shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of Aimei Health’s directors under Cayman Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

The courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against either Aimei Health or United Hydrogen, judgments of courts of the United States obtained against it or its directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against either Aimei Health or United Hydrogen or its respective directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is currently no statutory enforcement or treaty between the United States and the Cayman Islands providing for enforcement of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman

101

Table of Contents

Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive, given by a court of competent jurisdiction (the courts of the Cayman Islands will apply the rules of Cayman Islands private international law to determine whether the foreign court is a court of competent jurisdiction) and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). Furthermore, it is uncertain that Cayman Islands courts would enforce: (1) judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against Aimei Health or United Hydrogen or other persons that are predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws; or (2) original actions brought against Aimei Health or United Hydrogen or other persons predicated upon the Securities Act. Ogier (Cayman) LLP has informed Aimei Health that there is uncertainty with regard to Cayman Islands law relating to whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the securities laws will be determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands as penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Substantially all of the assets of United Hydrogen are located outside the United States. In addition, all or a substantial portion of the assets of the members of its board of directors, of its officers and of its controlling shareholder(s) are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Aimei Health and United Hydrogen and/or the aforementioned directors, officers and controlling shareholders, or to enforce against such companies or persons judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no assurance that confirmation of any judgment will be obtained, or that the process described above can be conducted in a timely manner. As a result of all of the above, Aimei Health shareholders and shareholders of United Hydrogen may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors, or controlling shareholders than they would as Public Shareholders of a corporation incorporated in the United States.

Risks Relating to the Financial Projections

None of Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, or any of their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors, or representatives has made or makes any representation or can give any assurance to any Aimei Health shareholders, or any other person, regarding the ultimate performance of United Hydrogen compared to the information set forth in the financial projections provided in this proxy statement/prospectus.

You should be aware that uncertainties are inherent in prospective financial projections of any kind, and such uncertainties increase with the passage of time. None of Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, or any of their respective affiliates, advisors, officers, directors, or representatives has made or makes any representation or can give any assurance to any Aimei Health shareholders, or any other person, regarding the ultimate performance of United Hydrogen compared to the information set forth under “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis — Certain United Hydrogen Projected Financial Information” or that any such results will be achieved.

The inclusion of United Hydrogen’s financial projections, including the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections (as defined below) and the Updated Projections (as defined below), relating to its business in this proxy statement/prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, or their respective advisors or other representatives considered or consider the projections to be necessarily predictive of actual future performance or events, and the projections set forth under “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis — Certain United Hydrogen Projected Financial Information” should not be relied upon as such. The projections were prepared by management of United Hydrogen based, in part, on certain information furnished by United Hydrogen and speak as of the date that such projections were made. Neither the independent registered public accounting firm of Aimei Health or United Hydrogen nor any other independent accounts has audited, reviewed, compiled, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information for the purpose of its inclusion herein, and accordingly, neither the independent registered public accounting firm of Aimei Health or United Hydrogen, nor any other independent accountant expresses an opinion or provides any form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Table of Contents

United Hydrogen management made numerous material estimates in developing the projections provided to Aimei Health and its financial advisor.

The projections prepared by United Hydrogen management were based on estimates for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 through December 31, 2028. The selected summary of the projections that were made available to Aimei Health and its financial advisor can be found in the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis — Certain United Hydrogen Projected Financial Information” beginning on page 146.

United Hydrogen’s projections are inherently subjective in nature and susceptible to interpretation and, accordingly, such projections may not be achieved. The projections regarding United Hydrogen’s future performance reflect and consider numerous material assumptions made by United Hydrogen management. Generally, United Hydrogen’s projected revenue is based on a variety of operational assumptions. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis — Projected Financial Metrics.” Further, projected earnings are driven by the projected revenue and corresponding costs related to the delivery of its products. The projections also reflect numerous assumptions made by United Hydrogen management, including material assumptions regarding, among other things:

        the general addressable market for United Hydrogen’s products and services;

        success and timing of United Hydrogen’s business strategies;

        competition, including from established and future competitors;

        whether United Hydrogen can obtain sufficient capital to sustain and grow its business;

        United Hydrogen’s ability to manage its growth;

        United Hydrogen’s ability to retain existing key management, integrate recent hires and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel;

        the overall strength and stability of domestic and international economies.

        other key assumptions affecting profitability projections, such as maintaining pricing, maintaining or reducing cost of goods sold, and sustaining or increasing gross margin; and

        estimated timing of Closing the Business Combination and receiving the estimated net proceeds of the Business Combination.

Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the projections will be realized. There may be differences between actual and projected results, and the differences may be material, some of which differences have been identified and discussed in greater detail in the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis.” The risk that these uncertainties and contingencies could cause the assumptions to fail to be reflective of actual results is further increased by the length of time over which these assumptions apply. The failure to achieve assumptions and projections in early periods could have a compounding effect on the projections shown for the later periods. Thus, any such failure of an assumption or projection to be reflective of actual results in an early period could have a greater effect on the projected results failing to be reflective of actual events in later periods. United Hydrogen’s business is subject to numerous risks. All of these assumptions involve variables making them difficult to predict, and some are beyond the control of United Hydrogen and Aimei Health. Although United Hydrogen management believes that there was a reasonable basis for the projections and underlying assumptions, any assumptions remain uncertain, and such uncertainty increases with the length of the projected period. The projections are forward-looking statements and are subject to risks and uncertainties. See the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 114. For a discussion of these projections, please see the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis — Certain United Hydrogen Projected Financial Information” beginning on page 146.

A decline in financial forecast or the failure of actual financial results of United Hydrogen to meet the forecasted results as disclosed elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus may adversely affect the future financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Pubco.

Although the financial forecasts of United Hydrogen are included in this proxy statement/prospectus, such forecasts are based on assumptions made by the management of United Hydrogen in preparing their financial forecasts, and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of United Hydrogen. The financial forecasts may decline or the actual financial results of United Hydrogen may fail to meet the forecasted results, which may have an adverse impact on the stock price and prospects of Pubco.

Risks Relating to Pubco’s Business and Operations Following the Business Combination

Pubco will incur higher costs post-Business Combination as a result of being a public company.

Pubco will incur significant additional legal, accounting, insurance, and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting requirements following completion of the Business Combination. Pubco will incur higher costs associated with complying with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform, and the Consumer Protection Act, and related rules implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq. The expenses incurred by public companies generally for reporting and corporate governance purposes have been increasing. Pubco expects these laws and regulations to increase its legal and financial compliance costs after the Business Combination and to render some activities more time-consuming and costly, although Pubco is currently unable to estimate these costs with any degree of certainty. Pubco may need to hire more employees post-Business Combination or engage outside consultants to comply with these requirements, which will increase its post-Business Combination costs and expenses. These laws and regulations could make it more difficult or costly for Pubco to obtain certain types of insurance, including directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, and Pubco may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult for Pubco to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the Pubco Board or as executive officers. Furthermore, if Pubco is unable to satisfy its obligations as a public company, it could be subject to delisting of its Class A Ordinary Shares, fines, sanctions, and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation.

If United Hydrogen or Pubco fails to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls or remediate the material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting that have been identified, Pubco may be unable to accurately report its results of operations, meet its reporting obligations, or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected.

Prior to the Business Combination, United Hydrogen has been a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources with which to address its internal controls and procedures. United Hydrogen’s independent registered public accounting firm has not conducted an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. However, in preparing its consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, United Hydrogen has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, as defined in the standards established by the PCAOB, and other control deficiencies. The material weaknesses identified included (i) a lack of sufficient skilled staff with U.S. GAAP knowledge and the SEC reporting knowledge for the purpose of financial reporting as well as a lack of formal accounting policies and procedures manual to ensure proper financial reporting in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements; and (ii) a lack of internal audit function to establish formal risk assessment process and internal control framework. To remedy the identified material weaknesses, United Hydrogen has adopted and will adopt further measures to improve its internal control over financial reporting. United Hydrogen has implemented, and plans to continue to develop, a full set of U.S. GAAP accounting policies and financial reporting procedures as well as related internal control policies, including implementing a comprehensive accounting manual to guide the day-to-day accounting operation and reporting work control in place. United Hydrogen has recruited staff with knowledge of U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations in its finance and accounting department. United Hydrogen has also supplemented and enhanced internal training and development programs for financial reporting personnel as well as appointing independent directors, establishing an audit committee, and strengthening corporate governance. Additionally, when entering into complex transactions, United Hydrogen will utilize a third-party consultant for accounting services as additional resources. However, United Hydrogen cannot assure you that these measures may fully address the material weaknesses and deficiencies in United Hydrogen’s internal control over financial reporting or that United Hydrogen may conclude that they have been fully remediated.

Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco will become subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“Section 404”) will require that Pubco include a report from management on the effectiveness of Pubco’s internal control over financial reporting in Pubco’s annual report on Form 20-F beginning with Pubco’s annual report in Pubco’s second annual report on Form 20-F after becoming a public company. In addition, once Pubco ceases to be an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, Pubco’s independent registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on the effectiveness of Pubco’s internal control over financial reporting. Moreover, even if Pubco’s management concludes that Pubco’s internal control over financial reporting is effective, Pubco’s independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting if it is not

104

Table of Contents

satisfied with Pubco’s internal controls or the level at which Pubco’s controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from Pubco. In addition, after Pubco becomes a public company, Pubco’s reporting obligations may place a significant strain on Pubco’s management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. Pubco may be unable to timely complete its evaluation testing and any required remediation.

During the course of documenting and testing Pubco’s internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404, Pubco may identify other weaknesses and deficiencies in Pubco’s internal control over financial reporting. If Pubco fails to maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, Pubco may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Generally speaking, if Pubco fails to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, it could result in material misstatements in Pubco’s financial statements and could also impair Pubco’s ability to comply with applicable financial reporting requirements and related regulatory filings on a timely basis. As a result, Pubco’s businesses, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of its Class A Ordinary Shares, may be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose Pubco to an increased risk of fraud or misuse of corporate assets and subject Pubco to potential delisting from the stock exchange on which Pubco lists, regulatory investigations, and civil or criminal sanctions. Pubco may also be required to restate its financial statements from prior periods.

Pubco may or may not pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of the board of directors of Pubco and will depend on, among other things, applicable law, regulations, restrictions, Pubco’s and United Hydrogen’s respective results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions, the future projects, and plans of Pubco and United Hydrogen and other factors that the board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, Pubco’s ability to pay dividends depends significantly on the extent to which it receives dividends from United Hydrogen and there can be no assurance that United Hydrogen will pay dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be an investor’s sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

Provisions in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association may inhibit a takeover of Pubco, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for Pubco’s securities and could entrench management.

The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, if their adoption is approved, will contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that shareholders of Pubco may consider to be in their best interests. Among other provisions, subject to the right of the shareholders of Pubco as specified in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the ability of the Pubco Board to issue additional shares, with or without preferred, deferred or other rights or restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise and to such persons, at such times and on such other terms as the board of directors may determine, to the extent authorized but unissued, and without shareholder approval, may make it more difficult for Pubco’s shareholders to remove incumbent management and accordingly discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for Pubco’s securities.

The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that the courts of the Cayman Islands and the U.S. federal courts will be the exclusive forums for substantially all disputes between Pubco and Pubco’s shareholders, which could limit Pubco’ shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for complaints against Pubco or Pubco’s directors, officers or employees.

The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that the courts of the Cayman Islands and the U.S. federal courts will be the exclusive forums for substantially all disputes between Pubco and Pubco’s shareholders, which could limit Pubco’s shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for complaints against Pubco or Pubco’s directors, officers or employees.

The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that, unless otherwise agreed by us, (i) the federal courts of the United States shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear, settle and/or determine any dispute, controversy or claim arising under the provisions of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, which are referred to as

105

Table of Contents

the “US Actions;” and (ii) save for such US Actions, the courts of the Cayman Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear, settle and/or determine any dispute, controversy or claim whether arising out of or in connection with Pubco’s articles of association or otherwise, including without limitation:

(a)     any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Pubco;

(b)    any action asserting a claim of breach of any fiduciary or other duty owed by any current or former director, Officer or other employee of Pubco to Pubco or the shareholders of Pubco;

(c)     any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Cayman Companies Act, or the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; or

(d)    any action asserting a claim against Pubco governed by the “Internal Affairs Doctrine” (as such concept is recognized under the laws of the United States of America)

These exclusive-forum provisions may increase a shareholder’s cost and limit the shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with Pubco or Pubco’s directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against Pubco and Pubco’s directors, officers and other employees. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any of Pubco’s shares or other security, whether by transfer, sale, operation of law or otherwise, shall be deemed to have notice of and have irrevocably agreed and consented to these provisions. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions, and the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ charter documents has been challenged in legal proceedings. It is possible that a court could find this type of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable, and if a court were to find this provision in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could have adverse effect on Pubco’s business and financial performance.

Pubco will be an “emerging growth company,” and it cannot be certain if the reduced SEC reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors, which could have a material and adverse effect on Pubco, including its growth prospects.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will be an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. Pubco will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, (b) in which Pubco has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which Pubco is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of Pubco’s prior second fiscal quarter, and (ii) the date on which Pubco issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. Pubco intends to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to most other public companies, whether or not they are classified as “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, an exemption from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that Pubco’s independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

In addition, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts “emerging growth companies” from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. Pubco has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, Pubco, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of Pubco’s financial statements with certain other public companies difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Furthermore, even after Pubco no longer qualifies as an “emerging growth company,” as long as Pubco continues to qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, Pubco will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including, but not limited to, the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership

106

Table of Contents

and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition, Pubco will not be required to file annual reports and financial statements with the SEC as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, and are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information.

As a result, Pubco shareholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. Pubco cannot predict if investors will find Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive because it relies on these exemptions. If some investors find Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market and share price for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares may be more volatile.

As a “foreign private issuer” under the rules and regulations of the SEC, Pubco is permitted to file less or different information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the United States or otherwise subject to these rules and is permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements applicable to U.S. issuers.

Pubco is, and will be after the consummation of the Transactions, considered a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act and is therefore exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act, including the proxy rules, which impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations for U.S. and other issuers. Moreover, Pubco is not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or within the same time frames as U.S. companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act, although it may elect to file certain periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC on a voluntary basis on the forms used by U.S. domestic issuers. Pubco is not required to comply with Regulation FD, which imposes restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information to shareholders. In addition, Pubco’s officers, directors, and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Pubco’s securities.

In addition, as a “foreign private issuer,” Pubco is permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements. A foreign private issuer must disclose in its annual reports filed with the SEC each Nasdaq requirement with which it does not comply followed by a description of its applicable home country practice. Pubco currently intends to follow some, but not all, of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. With respect to the corporate governance requirements of Pubco that it does follow, Pubco cannot give any assurances that it will continue to follow such corporate governance requirements in the future, and may therefore in the future, rely on available Nasdaq exemptions that would allow Pubco to follow its home country practice. Unlike the requirements of Nasdaq, Pubco is not required, under the corporate governance practice and requirements in the Cayman Islands, to have its board consist of a majority of independent directors, nor is Pubco required to have a compensation committee or a nominating or corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors, or have regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year. Such Cayman Islands home country practices may afford less protection to holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. For additional information regarding the home country practices Pubco intends to follow in lieu of Nasdaq requirements, see the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Management of Pubco Following the Business Combination — Corporate Governance Practices.”

Pubco would lose its status as a “foreign private issuer” under current SEC rules and regulations if more than 50% of Pubco’s outstanding voting securities becomes directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. holders and one of the following is true: (i) the majority of Pubco’s directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of Pubco’s assets are located in the United States; or (iii) Pubco’s business is administered principally in the United States. If Pubco loses its status as a foreign private issuer in the future, it will no longer be exempt from the rules described above and, among other things, will be required to file periodic reports and annual and quarterly financial statements as if it were a company incorporated in the United States. If this were to happen, Pubco would likely incur substantial costs in fulfilling these additional regulatory requirements and members of Pubco’s management would likely have to divert time and resources from other responsibilities to ensure these additional regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

107

Table of Contents

Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules, and may follow certain exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that could adversely affect its public shareholders.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer, will beneficially own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result, Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of applicable Nasdaq listing rules. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group, or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (i) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities and (iii) that its board of directors have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to utilize these exemptions. Although Pubco will have a compensation committee and nominating committee, such committees will not be composed entirely of “independent directors.” Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco anticipates that the size of its board of directors will be five directors, three of whom will qualify as independent directors as defined within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq listing rules and will meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, since we intend to rely on the exemptions, during the period we remain a controlled company and during any transition period following a time when we are no longer a controlled company, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.

The dual-class structure of Pubco Ordinary Shares has the effect of concentrating voting control with its Chairperson of Board of Directors, and her interests may not be aligned with the interests of Pubco’s other shareholders.

Pubco has a dual-class voting structure consisting of Pubco Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares. Under this structure, holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to 10 votes per share, which may cause the holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares to have an unbalanced, higher concentration of voting power. Upon the completion of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director and Chief Executive Officer, is expected to beneficially own 90,808,887.50 Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, or 100% of Pubco’s issued Class B Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 93.15% of the voting rights in Pubco (assuming no redemptions). As a result, until such time as her voting power is below 50%, Ms. Ma as the ultimate controlling shareholder has substantial influence over Pubco’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, election of directors, and other significant corporate actions. Ms. Ma, in her capacity of the ultimate controlling shareholder of Pubco, may take actions that are not in the best interests of Pubco or its other shareholders. These corporate actions may be taken even if they are opposed by Pubco’s other shareholders. Further, such concentration of voting power may discourage, prevent, or delay the consummation of transactions that shareholders may consider favorable, including ones in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. Future issuances of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares may also be dilutive to the holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.

We are highly dependent on the services of Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and ultimate controlling shareholder.

We are highly dependent on the performance, expertise and continuity of Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson, Director, Chief Executive Officer and ultimate controlling shareholder. Any adverse personal situation affecting Ms. Xia Ma, such as changes in marital status, health issues, or other personal circumstances, could significantly impact her ability to effectively manage and lead the Pubco and its subsidiaries following the Business Combination. Any of such situations could seriously harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results, which, in turn, would adversely affect the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Pubco’s dual-class capital structure may render Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares ineligible for inclusion in certain stock market indices, and thus adversely affect the trading price and liquidity of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Pubco cannot predict whether its dual-class capital structure will result in a lower or more volatile market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, adverse publicity, or other adverse consequences. Certain index providers have announced and implemented restrictions on including companies with multiple-class share structures in certain of their indices. For example, in July 2017, FTSE Russell announced that it would require new constituents of its indices to have greater than 5% of the company’s voting rights in the hands of Public Shareholders, and S&P Dow Jones announced in the same month that it would no longer admit companies with multiple-class share structures to certain of its indices. Affected indices include the Russell 2000 and the S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400, and S&P SmallCap 600, which together make up the S&P Composite 1500. Also, in 2017, MSCI, a leading stock index provider, opened public consultations on its treatment of no-vote and multi-class structures and temporarily barred new multi-class listings from certain of its indices; however, in October 2018, MSCI announced its decision to include equity securities “with unequal voting structures” in its indices and to launch a new index that specifically includes voting rights in its eligibility criteria. Under the announced policies, Pubco’s dual-class capital structure might make Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares ineligible for inclusion in any of these indices, and as a result, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and other investment vehicles that attempt to passively track these indices will not be investing in Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. It is unclear what effect, if any, these policies will have on the valuations of publicly-traded companies excluded from such indices, but it is possible that they may adversely affect valuations, as compared to similar companies that are included. Due to the dual-class capital structure of Pubco Ordinary Shares, its Class A Ordinary Shares will likely be excluded from certain indices and we cannot assure you that other stock indices will not take similar actions. Given the sustained flow of investment funds into passive strategies that seek to track certain indices, exclusion from certain stock indices would likely preclude investment by many of these funds and could make Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive to other investors. As a result, the market price and liquidity of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be materially adversely affected.

Because Pubco is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited.

Pubco is an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Pubco’s directors or officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against Pubco’s directors or officers.

Pubco’s corporate affairs will be governed by the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Cayman Companies Act (as the same may be supplemented or amended from time to time), and the common law of the Cayman Islands. Pubco will also be subject to the federal securities laws of the United States. The rights of Pubco shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders, and the fiduciary responsibilities of Pubco’s directors to Pubco under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law. Decisions of the Privy Council (which is the final Court of Appeal for British overseas territories such as the Cayman Islands) are binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. Decisions of the English courts, and particularly the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal are generally of persuasive authority but are not binding in the courts of the Cayman Islands. Decisions of courts in other Commonwealth jurisdictions are similarly persuasive but not binding authority. The rights of Pubco’s shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of Pubco’s directors under Cayman Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less prescriptive body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Pubco has been advised by its Cayman Islands legal counsel that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against Pubco or its directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States or (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against Pubco predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature.

109

Table of Contents

In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive, given by a court of competent jurisdiction (the courts of the Cayman Islands will apply the rules of the Cayman Islands private international law to determine whether the foreign court is a court of competent jurisdiction), and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, and or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands Court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

As a result of all of the above, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors, or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a corporation incorporated in the United States.

If Pubco is characterized as a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse tax consequences.

If Pubco is a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. holder of Pubco Ordinary Shares, the U.S. holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. Pubco’s PFIC status for its current and subsequent taxable years may depend on its unbooked goodwill as valued based on the projected market value of Pubco’s equity and whether it qualifies for the PFIC start-up exception. Depending on the particular circumstances, the application of the start-up exception may be subject to uncertainty, and there cannot be any assurance that Pubco will qualify for the start-up exception. Accordingly, there can be no assurances with respect to Pubco’s status as a PFIC for its current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. Pubco’s actual PFIC status for any taxable year, however, will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules to holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares.

The Business Combination may not qualify for tax-deferred treatment, in which case U.S. Holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares or SPAC Rights would recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Business Combination for U.S. holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares and/or Aimei Health Rights will depend on whether it qualifies as an exchange pursuant to Section 351(a) of the Code that is generally eligible for tax-deferred treatment. There are significant factual and legal uncertainties as to whether the Business Combination will qualify as an exchange pursuant to Section 351(a) of the Code. For example, if more than 20% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Mergers were subject to an arrangement or agreement to be sold or disposed of at the time of their issuance in the Business Combination, one of the requirements for Section 351(a) treatment would be violated. However, we do not expect that any of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issued in the Business Combination will be subject to an arrangement or agreement by their holders to sell or dispose of such shares upon the issuance of those shares in the Business Combination.

Although it is not a condition to closing that an opinion of counsel regarding the tax treatment of the Business Combination be provided, Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC is providing, in connection with the filing of the proxy statement/prospectus, its opinion to the effect that, as such opinion relates to the holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares or Aimei Health Rights, taken together, the exchange of Aimei Health ordinary shares and/or Aimei Health Rights for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination, will qualify as an exchange governed by Section 351(a) of the Code. Such opinion is based on current law and is based on, and assumes the correctness of, representations and assumptions as to factual matters made by Aimei Health and United Hydrogen If any of these representations or assumptions is incorrect, the validity of the opinion of counsel could be affected. In addition, there is a lack of authority directly addressing the tax consequences of the Business Combination, and the provisions of Section 351(a) of the Code are complex and qualification thereunder could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur following the Business Combination that are beyond SPAC’s control. For example, if 20% or more of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares were subject to an arrangement or agreement to be sold or disposed of at the time of its issuance in the Business Combination, one of the requirements for Section 351(a) treatment might not be satisfied.

Table of Contents

An opinion of counsel is not binding on the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or any court, and neither Aimei Health nor United Hydrogen intends to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Business Combination. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge such treatment or that a court will not sustain a challenge by the IRS. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Material Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities.”

If the Second Merger does not qualify for tax-deferred treatment, then a U.S. holder that exchanges its Aimei Health ordinary shares or Aimei Health Rights for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the fair market value of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received and (ii) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Aimei Health ordinary shares and/or Aimei Health Rights exchanged. U.S. holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares and/or Aimei Health Rights should consult their tax advisors to determine the tax consequences if the Business Combination does not qualify for tax-deferred treatment.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against Pubco, its management or its controlling shareholder named in the prospectus based on foreign laws.

Pubco is an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, Pubco conducts substantially all of its operations in China, and substantially all of Pubco’s assets are located in China. In addition, all Pubco’s senior executive officers, namely, Ms. Xia Ma, acting as a Chairperson, Director and Chief Executive Officer of Pubco who is also the ultimate controlling shareholder of Pubco, Jia Zhao, Junxia Ren, Xinrong Zhang and Yi Chen, each acting as a director of Pubco, and Weina Lin, acting as the Chief Financial Officer of Pubco, all reside within China for a significant portion of the time and are PRC nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for Pubco’s shareholders to effect service of process upon Pubco or those persons inside China. In addition, China does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the Cayman Islands and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

Shareholder claims that are common in the United States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States has not been efficient in the absence of a mutual and practical cooperation mechanism.

All of Pubco’s directors and officers are residents of China and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. It may also be difficult for a shareholder to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and these persons located in China.

According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of the competent PRC securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties. See also “Risks Relating to Pubco’s Business and Operations Following the Business Combination — Because Pubco is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited.

Economic substance legislation of the Cayman Islands may adversely impact Pubco or its operations.

The Cayman Islands, together with several other non-EU jurisdictions, have introduced legislation aimed at addressing concerns raised by the Council of the EU as to offshore structures engaged in certain activities that attract profits without real economic activity. With effect from January 1, 2019, the International Tax Co-operation (Economic Substance) Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Substance Act”) came into force in the Cayman Islands, introducing certain economic substance requirements for in-scope Cayman Islands entities that are engaged in certain

111

Table of Contents

“relevant activities,” which, in the case of exempted companies incorporated before January 1, 2019, will apply in respect of financial years commencing July 1, 2019 onwards. As Pubco is a Cayman Islands company, compliance obligations include filing annual notifications for Pubco, which need to state whether it is carrying out any relevant activities and if so, whether it has satisfied economic substance tests to the extent required under the Substance Act. As it is a new regime, it is anticipated that the Substance Act will evolve and be subject to further clarification and amendments. Pubco may need to allocate additional resources to keep updated with these developments, and may have to make changes to its operations in order to comply with all requirements under the Substance Act. Failure to satisfy these requirements may subject Pubco to penalties under the Substance Act.

Risks Relating to Redemptions and Certain Outstanding Securities of Aimei Health

Public Shareholders of Aimei Health who wish to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account must comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline. If shareholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account.

A public shareholder of Aimei Health will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if such public shareholder: (1)(a) holds public shares, or (b) if the public shareholder holds public shares through units, the public shareholder elects to separate its units into the underlying public shares prior to exercising its redemption rights with respect to the public shares; (2) submits a written request to Aimei Health and redeem all or a portion of its public shares for cash; and (3) delivers its public shares to Aimei Health’s transfer agent Continental, physically or electronically.

If the Business Combination is consummated, and if a public shareholder of Aimei Health properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, its transfer agent, Aimei Health will redeem such public shares for a pro rata portion of the cash held in the Trust Account, including interest earned, but net of taxes payable, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

If a public shareholder of Aimei Health fails to receive notice of its offer to redeem public shares in connection with the Business Combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.

If, despite Aimei Health’s compliance with the proxy rules, a public shareholder fails to receive Aimei Health’s proxy materials, such public shareholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem his, her, or its public shares. In addition, the proxy materials that we are furnishing to holders of public shares in connection with the Business Combination describe the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem the public shares. In the event that a public shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its public shares may not be redeemed. Please see the discussion in this proxy statement/prospectus under the caption, “Redemption Rights” for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.

If you are a shareholder of Aimei Health, you may be diluted from the adoption and implementation of the Pubco Incentive Plan.

In connection with the Business Combination, subject to shareholder approval, Pubco will adopt the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan. Following the Closing of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to grant equity awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, or other equity-based compensation, to its directors, officers, and employees pursuant to the Plan. These equity awards are intended to incentivize performance, attract and retain talent, and align the interests of key personnel with those of Pubco’s shareholders. However, Pubco has not determined the timing, schedule, or amounts of such grants as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The issuance of equity awards under the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan will dilute the equity interests of Aimei Health’s public shareholders, including non-redeeming shareholders of Aimei Health and reduce the value of their holdings. The extent of such dilution will depend on the size and frequency of equity awards granted. Additionally, if the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan authorizes a significant number of shares for issuance, this could result in substantial dilution over time, which may adversely affect the market price of Pubco’s securities.

112

Table of Contents

If you or a “group” of shareholders of which you are a part are deemed to hold an aggregate of more than 15% of the public shares, you (or, if a member of such a group, all of the members of such group in the aggregate) will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of the public shares.

A public shareholder, together with any of his, her, or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her, or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the public shares. In order to determine whether a shareholder is acting in concert or as a group with another shareholder, Aimei Health will require each public shareholder seeking to exercise redemption rights to certify to Aimei Health whether such shareholder is acting in concert or as a group with any other shareholder. Such certifications, together with other public information relating to stock ownership available to us at that time, such as Section 13D, Section 13G, and Section 16 filings under the Exchange Act, will be the sole basis on which Aimei Health makes the above-referenced determination. Your inability to redeem any such excess shares will reduce your influence over Aimei Health’s ability to consummate the Business Combination and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in Pubco if you sell such excess shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you will not receive redemption distributions with respect to such excess shares if Aimei Health consummates the Business Combination. As a result, you will continue to hold that number of shares aggregating to more than 15% of the public shares sold in the IPO and, in order to dispose of such excess shares, would be required to sell your stock in open market transactions, potentially at a loss. Aimei Health cannot assure you that the value of such excess shares will appreciate over time following the Business Combination or that the market price of the public shares will exceed the per-share redemption price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shareholders may challenge Aimei Health’s determination as to whether a shareholder is acting in concert or as a group with another shareholder in a court of competent jurisdiction.

However, the ability of the shareholders of Aimei Health to vote all of their shares (including such excess shares) for or against the Business Combination is not restricted by this limitation on redemption.

There is no guarantee that a shareholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put the shareholder in a better future economic position.

Aimei Health can give no assurance as to the price at which a shareholder may be able to sell its public shares in the future following the completion of the Business Combination or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in Aimei Health’s share price, and may result in a lower value realized now than a shareholder of Aimei Health might realize in the future had the shareholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a shareholder does not redeem its shares, the shareholder will bear the risk of ownership of the public shares after the consummation of any initial business combination, and there can be no assurance that a shareholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. A shareholder should consult the shareholder’s own tax or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her, or its individual situation.

Economic substance legislation of the Cayman Islands may adversely impact Aimei Health or its operations.

The Cayman Islands, together with several other non-EU jurisdictions, have introduced legislation aimed at addressing concerns raised by the Council of the EU as to offshore structures engaged in certain activities which attract profits without real economic activity. With effect from January 1, 2019, the Substance Act came into force in the Cayman Islands introducing certain economic substance requirements for in-scope Cayman Islands entities which are engaged in certain “relevant activities,” which in the case of exempted companies incorporated before January 1, 2019, will apply in respect of financial years commencing July 1, 2019, onwards. As Aimei Health is a Cayman Islands company, compliance obligations include filing annual notifications for Aimei Health, which need to state whether it is carrying out any relevant activities and if so, whether it has satisfied economic substance tests to the extent required under the Substance Act. As it is a new regime, it is anticipated that the Substance Act will evolve and be subject to further clarification and amendments. Aimei Health may need to allocate additional resources to keep updated with these developments, and may have to make changes to its operations in order to comply with all requirements under the Substance Act. Failure to satisfy these requirements may subject Aimei Health to penalties under the Substance Act.

Recommendation of Aimei Health Board of Directors

The Aimei Health board of directors has unanimously determined that the Business Combination Proposal is fair to and in the best interests of Aimei Health and its shareholders; has unanimously approved the Business Combination Proposal; and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Share Issuance Proposal, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal if one is presented to the Meeting. No unaffiliated representative has been retained by a majority of the directors who are not employees of Aimei Health to act solely on behalf of the unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health for purposes of negotiating the terms of the Business Combination on their behalf and/or preparing a report concerning the approval of the Business Combination.

Record Date; Outstanding Shares; Shareholders Entitled to Vote

Aimei Health has fixed the close of business on [•], 2025 as the “Record Date” for determining Aimei Health shareholders entitled to notice of and to attend and vote at the Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 6,121,733 ordinary shares of Aimei Health issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Each ordinary share of Aimei Health is entitled to one vote per share at the Meeting.

Quorum

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of no less than a majority of all the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting constitutes a quorum at the Meeting.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Proxies that are marked “abstain” and proxies relating to “street name” shares that are returned to Aimei Health but marked by brokers as “not voted” will be treated as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum on all matters. If a shareholder does not give the broker voting instructions, under applicable self-regulatory organization rules, its broker may not vote its shares on “non-routine” proposals without receiving instructions from you. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker, or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a non-routine proposal because the holder of record has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Each of the Proposals to be presented at the Meeting is a non-routine proposal. Accordingly, if you are a beneficial owner and you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other holder of record holding shares for you, your shares will not be voted with respect to any of the Proposals.

Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on any of the proposals.

The approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Share Issuance Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal (if presented) will require the affirmative vote by the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health that are present and voted on each respective proposal at the Meeting. The approval of the Merger Proposal will require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of Aimei Health shareholders holding at least two thirds of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health which, being so entitled, are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum is present. In connection with the Business Combination, the holders of Aimei Health’s Founder Shares and Private Shares, including those held by Initial Shareholders, have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and Private Shares, as well as any ordinary shares acquired in the aftermarket, in favor of the Business Combination. The Founder Shares constitute approximately 28.2% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health and the Private Shares constitute approximately 5.4% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health as of the Record Date. Such holders have also indicated that they intend to vote their shares in favor of all other proposals being presented at the Meeting. The Founder Shares and Private Shares, including those held by Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, in the aggregate represent approximately 33.6% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Aimei Health as of the Record Date.

Your Shares

Each ordinary share of Aimei Health that you own in your name entitles you to one vote. Your proxy card shows the number of ordinary shares of Aimei Health that you own. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted.

Voting Your Shares — Shareholders of Record

There are three ways to vote your ordinary shares of Aimei Health at the Meeting:

You Can Vote in Person at the Extraordinary General Meeting.    If you are a holder of record of ordinary shares of Aimei Health on the Record Date, you may vote in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting or vote by proxy in one of the other following ways.

You Can Vote by Signing and Returning the Enclosed Proxy Card.    If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Aimei Health board of directors “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Merger Proposal, “FOR” the Share Issuance Proposal, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if presented. Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Meeting will not be counted.

Redemption Rights

Holders of Public Shares may seek to convert their shares, regardless of whether or not they are holders on the Record Date or whether or how they vote at the Meeting, but no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on [•], 2025 (two business days prior to the Meeting). Any shareholder holding Public Shares may demand that Aimei Health convert such shares into a full pro rata portion of the Trust Account (which was approximately $[•] per share as of [•], 2025, the Record Date), calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the Business Combination. If a holder properly seeks Redemption as described in this section and the Business Combination is consummated, Aimei Health will convert these shares into a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account and the holder will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination.

Aimei Health’s Sponsor, officers, and directors will not have Redemption rights with respect to any ordinary shares of Aimei Health owned by them, directly or indirectly.

Aimei Health shareholders who seek to redeem their Public Shares are required to (i) either (a) check the box on their proxy card, or (b) submit their request in writing to Continental, Aimei Health’s transfer agent and (ii) deliver their stock, either physically or electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System, to Aimei Health’s transfer agent no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on [•], 2025 (two business days prior to the Meeting). If you hold the shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Certificates that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be converted into cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system.

Any request to convert such shares, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to the vote on the Business Combination Proposal. Furthermore, if a holder of a Public Share delivered its certificate in connection with an election of its Redemption and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, it may simply request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

If the Business Combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders who elected to exercise their Redemption rights will not be entitled to convert their shares into a pro rata portion of the cash in the Trust Account, as applicable. Aimei Health will thereafter promptly return any shares delivered by Public Shareholders. In such case, holders may only share in the assets of the Trust Account upon the liquidation of Aimei Health. This may result in holders receiving less than they would have received if the Business Combination was completed and they had exercised Redemption rights in connection therewith due to potential claims of creditors. If Aimei Health would be left with less than $5,000,001 of net tangible assets as a result of the holders of Public Shares properly demanding Redemption of their shares, Aimei Health will not be able to consummate the Business Combination.

The closing price of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health on the Record Date was $[•]. The cash held in the Trust Account on such date was approximately $[•] million, which would have amounted to approximately $[•] per Public Share). Prior to exercising Redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of the ordinary shares of Aimei Health as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their ordinary shares in the public market than from exercising their Redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the Redemption price. Aimei Health cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their ordinary shares of Aimei Health in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the Redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when its shareholders wish to sell their shares.

If a holder of Public Shares exercises its Redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its ordinary shares of Aimei Health for cash and will no longer own those shares. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly demand Redemption and deliver your share certificate (either physically or electronically) to Aimei Health’s transfer agent prior to the vote at the Meeting, and the Business Combination is consummated.

THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL

Overview

Aimei Health is asking its shareholders to adopt and approve the Business Combination, which includes, among other things, the approval of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers. The approval of this Business Combination Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Merger Proposal, and the Share Issuance Proposal. Therefore, if either the Merger Proposal or the Share Issuance Proposal is not approved, the Business Combination may not be consummated. Aimei Health shareholders should read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Business Combination Agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus, and the transactions contemplated thereby. You are urged to read carefully the Business Combination Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

Because we are holding an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to vote on the Business Combination, we may consummate the Business Combination only if the Business Combination Proposal is approved by a majority of the votes cast (in person, virtually or by proxy) by the holders of a majority Aimei Health ordinary shares entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting (provided that the Merger Proposal is also approved as set forth under “Proposal 1 — The Merger Proposal”). Under the Business Combination Agreement, the approval of the Business Combination Proposal is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. The approval of the Mergers is a requirement under the Companies Act. If the Business Combination Proposal, including the Mergers, is not approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health, the Business Combination will not be consummated. The adoption of the Business Combination Proposal is conditioned upon the adoption of the Merger Proposal and the Share Issuance Proposal.

The Business Combination Agreement

The Business Combination

Aimei Health is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On June 19, 2024, Aimei Health entered into the Business Combination Agreement with (i) United Hydrogen, (ii) Pubco, (iii) the First Merger Sub, (iv) the Second Merger Sub, and (v) the Sponsor. On June 6, 2025, parties entered into a First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the deadline for consummation of the Business Combination to September 30, 2025.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (a) First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen, whereby the separate existence of First Merger Sub will cease, and United Hydrogen will be the surviving corporation of the First Merger and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; and (b) following confirmation of the effective filing of the First Merger, and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health, whereby the separate existence of Second Merger Sub will cease, and Aimei Health will be the surviving corporation of the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco.

As a result of the Mergers, among other things, (i) all outstanding ordinary shares of United Hydrogen, except for the United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares and the United Hydrogen Dissenting Shares, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares as determined in accordance with the Exchange Ratio provided for in the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) all United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares will be canceled and converted into the right to receive the number of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares as determined in accordance with the Exchange Ratio, (iii) each convertible note of United Hydrogen that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be converted into such number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen pursuant to the terms thereof, which resulting shares will be converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares based on the Exchange Ratio; (iv) each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Unit shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one Aimei Health ordinary share and one Aimei Health Right, (v) each Aimei Health ordinary share shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share, and (vi) each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Rights shall be cancelled and automatically converted into one-fifth of one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share.

The Business Combination has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, the Pubco, the First Merger Sub and the Second Merger Sub and is expected to be consummated as soon as possible following the Meeting should the requisite vote be obtained.

Reasons for the Structure of the Business Combination

As described above and contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination will be consummated via a multiple-merger structure (also known as “double dummy”), consisting of the First Merger and the Second Merger. Under this structure, each of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen will merge with a subsidiary of Pubco, a newly formed company, through the Mergers. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will be the public company listed on Nasdaq. The multiple-merger structure was chosen by the parties to the Business Combination Agreement for business, legal, and accounting reasons. In particular, given Pubco’s eligibility as a foreign private issuer, its reporting obligations under U.S. securities laws will be less burdensome compared to domestic registrants. Such benefit will not be available immediately upon Closing if the Business Combination were to be conducted through a reverse triangular merger in which United Hydrogen would be acquired directly by Aimei Health, which would continue to report as a domestic registrant upon Closing until further assessment of factors such as its shareholder base and location of assets at a future date pursuant to U.S. securities laws. Operationally, following the Business Combination conducted via the proposed structure, Pubco will be a holding company that will operate United Hydrogen’s current business through its subsidiaries, which is consistent with the expectations of United Hydrogen’s and Aimei Health’s respective management regarding the post-Business Combination corporate and operational structure. In addition, the transaction structure was also selected for U.S. tax reasons and the exchange of Aimei Health ordinary shares for Pubco Class A or Class B Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination is intended to qualify as a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Although Aimei Health believes the business combination with United Hydrogen is attractive and in the best interests of Aimei Health’s shareholders, Aimei Health Board did consider the risks which may lead to certain potential negative impacts including general economic conditions, decrease of attention of hydrogen energy in different countries, unreachable revenue or profit expectations, potential safety accident, market acceptance by end users, development of alternative green energy sources, changing customer demands, dependence on key person, United Hydrogen’s capability to obtain continues financing and United Hydrogen’s compliance with governmental and other regulations.

United Hydrogen’s decision to engage in a de-SPAC transaction was driven by several strategic considerations. From the outset, United Hydrogen aimed to secure additional funding and increase its international exposure, especially in key markets like the United States. To achieve this, listing on a major exchange like Nasdaq became a primary objective. United Hydrogen’s management, along with its financial advisor, conducted a thorough analysis of various potential listing pathways, which included a comprehensive review of traditional IPOs as compared to de-SPAC mergers, with a focus on factors such as feasibility, cost, valuation and comparable companies.

Several critical analyses were performed to inform the decision-making process. A listing path analysis identified the pros and cons of each option, while a feasibility study ensured the viability of a Nasdaq listing given United Hydrogen’s financial and operational readiness. The cost budget was carefully examined, especially given the fluctuating costs associated with IPOs and market conditions. Additionally, a valuation analysis and comparisons with similar companies provided insights into how United Hydrogen could be valued in the public market and the expectations of potential investors.

After multiple discussions and evaluations, United Hydrogen’s management concluded that the current capital market environment, the cost implications, and the company’s need for a swift and efficient listing made a de-SPAC merger the optimal route. Unlike a traditional IPO, which can be time-consuming and expensive, the de-SPAC route is expected to offer a more streamlined and cost-effective process with greater certainty around valuation and timing.

Through the introduction of its financial advisor, United Hydrogen began discussions with Aimei Health, a potential SPAC partner. These discussions explored the business synergies between the two companies, ultimately leading to a mutual understanding. After careful consideration, Aimei Health emerged as the most suitable partner to facilitate United Hydrogen’s public listing through the de-SPAC transaction.

Consideration

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the Aggregate Merger Consideration Amount to be paid to the shareholders of United Hydrogen is $1,500,000,000 and will be paid entirely in shares, comprised of newly-issued Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares of Pubco, with each share valued at the Per Share Price.

As a result of the Mergers, (i) each of the ordinary shares of United Hydrogen that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, except for the United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares and the United Hydrogen Dissenting Shares, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio determined in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) each United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the number of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio; (iii) each convertible note of United Hydrogen that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be converted into such number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen pursuant to the terms thereof, which resulting shares will be converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares based on the Exchange Ratio; (iv) each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Unit shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one Aimei Health ordinary share and one Aimei Health Right; (v) each Aimei Health ordinary share shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share; and (vi) each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Rights shall be cancelled and automatically converted into one-fifth of one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share. The newly issued Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will have the same economic terms as the newly issued Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, but each Pubco Class B Ordinary Share will be entitled to ten (10) votes per share compared with one vote per share for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares with all Pubco Ordinary Shares voting together as a single class on most matters. See “Description of Pubco Securities.” Michael&Jason Limited, a BVI business company solely owned and controlled by Xia Ma, will beneficially own all of the issued Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination. The newly issued Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to be received by Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders and affiliates in connection with Transactions will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will not have any conversion, pre-emptive, or other subscription rights and there will be no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

PIPE Investments

Despite the provisions in the Business Combination Agreement, the Seller Registration Rights Agreement and the Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement permitting United Hydrogen to seek PIPE Investment in connection with the Business Combination, neither Aimei Health nor United Hydrogen have entered into any PIPE Subscription Agreement as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. Furthermore, Aimei Health and United Hydrogen do not intend to pursue any PIPE Investment prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

The Sponsor, its Affiliates, and Promoters

Aimei Investment Ltd, Aimei Health’s Sponsor, is an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability. The Sponsor has no business operations and only serves as a vehicle that holds equity interests in Aimei Health. In addition to participating in sponsoring Aimei Health, the Sponsor and its affiliate, namely, the Sponsor’s sole shareholder and director, Huang Han, does not have any experience in organizing special purpose acquisition companies. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Aimei Health does not have any other promoters other than the Sponsor and its affiliate. To Aimei Health’s knowledge, neither the Sponsor, its affiliate, nor any promoters of Aimei Health are involved in other special purpose acquisition companies.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Huang Han is the controlling person of the Sponsor, holding 100% of the Sponsor’s equity interest. Since the inception of Aimei Health, the material roles and responsibilities of the Sponsor, its affiliate, and promoters took in directing and managing Aimei Health’s activities have included assisting Aimei Health’s management with daily executive operations.

The Sponsor holds an aggregate of 1,905,000 Aimei Health ordinary shares as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The Sponsor has invested an aggregate of $3,345,000 in Aimei Health, comprised of (i) $25,000 for 1,725,000 Founder Shares (approximately $0.014 per share), of which 152,000 Founder Shares were transferred to the then officers and directors of Aimei Health on May 25, 2023, and (ii) $3,320,000 for 332,000 Private Shares. The Sponsor may realize a positive rate of return so long as the market price of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares is at least $[1.76] per share, even if Aimei Health public shareholders experience a negative rate of return following the Business Combination. The Sponsor, its affiliates and promoters are not receiving compensation in connection with the Business Combination. In addition, the Sponsor, its affiliates, and promoters will not receive any additional securities of Aimei Health or Pubco in connection with the Business Combination, except for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares expected to be received based on the share exchange provision stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement. In connection with the Business Combination, subject to shareholder approval, Pubco will adopt the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan. Following the Closing, Pubco expects to grant equity awards to its directors, officers and employees under the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan from time to time, but has not determined the schedule or amount of such grants as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The grant of equity awards is expected to have a dilution impact to non-redeeming shareholders of Aimei Health, see “Risk Factors — If you are a shareholder of Aimei Health, you may be diluted from the adoption and implementation of the Pubco Incentive Plan.” For an illustration of the dilutive effect the Business Combination and related transactions would have on the holders of public shares who hold the securities until the consummation of the Business Combination, see “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Dilution to the Shareholders of Aimei Health” and “Risk Factors — The shareholders of Aimei Health may experience substantial dilution as a consequence of the issuance of ordinary shares in the Business Combination, and will exercise less influence over management.”

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreement, arrangement, or understanding has been made between the Sponsor and Aimei Health or Aimei Health’s officers, directors, and affiliates with respect to determining whether to proceed with a de-SPAC transaction, except for a letter agreement dated December 1, 2023 (the “Letter Agreement”)

Background of the Business Combination

Aimei Health is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 27, 2023, for the purpose of effecting a merger, share reconstruction or amalgamation, asset or share acquisition, exchangeable share transaction, contractual control arrangement or other similar business combination with one or more businesses. Aimei Health seeks to acquire small cap businesses in the biopharmaceutical, medical technology and device industries, as well as in the diagnostic and other services sector. Aimei Health’s intention was to capitalize on its board’s and management team’s extensive network of relationships, industry knowledge, acquisition experience, and deal sourcing capabilities to access a broad spectrum of opportunities. The terms of the Business Combination were the result of negotiations among representatives of Aimei Health and representatives of United Hydrogen. The following is a brief description of the background of those negotiations, the Business Combination, and related transactions.

On December 6, 2023, Aimei Health consummated its IPO of 6,900,000 Units (including the overallotment of 900,000 Units), with each Unit consisting of one ordinary share, and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregated of 1,725,000 Founder Shares for an aggregated price of $25,000, of which 152,000 Founder Shares were transferred to the then officers and directors of Aimei Health on May 25, 2023. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, Aimei Health consummated the private placement to the Sponsor of an aggregate of 332,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $3,320,000.

Prior to the consummation of the IPO on December 6, 2023, neither Aimei Health, nor anyone acting on its behalf, contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with Aimei Health.

Since the completion of the IPO, Aimei Health considered numerous potential target businesses with the objective of consummating its initial business combination. Representatives of Aimei Health contacted and were contacted by certain individuals and entities who presented ideas for business combination opportunities, including certain companies within the healthcare sector. Aimei Health considered businesses that it believed had attractive long-term growth potential, were well-positioned within their industry and would benefit from the substantial intellectual capital, operational and investment experience, and network of Aimei Health’s management team.

Aimei Health reviewed and evaluated the potential targets based on the following investment criteria and guidelines, which were also set forth in its IPO prospectus. While Aimei Health intends to use these criteria and guidelines in evaluating prospective businesses, it may deviate from these criteria and guidelines should it see fit to do so:

        Aimei Health believes that there are a substantial number of potential target businesses domestically and internationally with appropriate valuations that can benefit from a public listing and new capital for growth to support significant revenue and earnings growth or to advance biopharmaceutical, medical technology and device, healthcare, clean energy, and other related programs.

        Aimei Health intends to seek target companies that have significant and underexploited expansion opportunities in a niche sector. This can be accomplished through a combination of accelerating organic growth and identifying attractive add-on acquisition targets.

        Aimei Health intends to seek target companies that should offer attractive risk-adjusted equity returns for its shareholders. Aimei Health seeks to acquire a target on terms and in a manner that leverage its experience. Aimei Health expects to evaluate a target based on its potential to successfully achieve regulatory approval and commercialize its product(s). Aimei Health also expects to evaluate financial returns based on (i) risk-adjusted peak sales potential, (ii) the potential of pipeline products and the scientific platform, (iii) the ability to achieve the system cost savings, (iv) the ability to accelerate growth via other options, including through the opportunity for follow-on acquisitions, and (v) the prospects for creating value through other value creation initiatives. The potential upside, such as growth in the target business’ earnings or an improved capital structure, will be carefully weighed against any identified downside risks.

        Aimei Health intends to invest in businesses that have a track record of success. Aimei Health looks for companies with shareholder-friendly governance and low leverage, which are valued at what Aimei Health thinks are low prices relative to their earnings potential and where Aimei Health sees attractive return potential over the long run. Aimei Health believes this investment approach constitutes its competitive advantage and can potentially offer both meaningful upside potential and a degree of downside protection in periods of financial market turbulence.

Aimei Health’s business strategy was to identify and complete its business combination with one or more entities that meet one or more criteria of:

        late-stage development or revenue generating;

        high growth prospects with sustainable proprietary position;

        experienced management teams with previous successes, especially where Aimei Health can add critical public company expertise;

        addressable conditions that are clinically important and under-diagnosed or treated;

        independent companies or corporate spin offs; or

        domestic or international base of business.

During this search process, Aimei Health reviewed three potential business combination opportunities and entered into non-disclosure agreements with two companies. The non-disclosure agreements did not contain standstill provisions or “don’t ask, don’t waive” provisions. These potential targets were in the medical or healthcare industries. Aimei Health ultimately determined not to proceed with any of its other potential acquisition opportunities because, in the judgment of the Aimei Health board and management, the other potential business combination targets did not meet the valuation expectations of Aimei Health or otherwise did not present as attractive or feasible a business combination opportunity as United Hydrogen.

With regard to those three targets with which Aimei Health did not pursue a business combination:

Company A

In January 2024, Company A, which has no affiliation with Aimei Health or its related entities, was introduced to Aimei Health’s management through a financial advisor. Company A is a pharmaceutical research company in the U.S. dedicated to developing innovative drugs using novel drug carrier systems.

Between January and February 2024, Aimei Health’s management thoroughly reviewed Company A’s business model and engaged in three online discussions with its management team. Following a preliminary due diligence review, Aimei Health identified Company A as a potential merger candidate. However, in March 2024, Aimei Health removed Company A from the priority list due to the substantial funding requirements that exceeded Aimei Health’s capacity.

Company B

In February 2024, Company B, which is also not affiliated with Aimei Health or its associated entities, was referred to Aimei Health’s management by a financial advisor. Company B, based in Hong Kong, specializes in stem cell culture technology. After reviewing Company B’s business model and holding discussions with its management in March 2024, Aimei Health’s management identified Company B as a potential merger candidate. A confidential agreement was signed on March 1, 2024, and Aimei Health conducted further due diligence through the end of March. In April 2024, Company B was removed from the priority list, as Aimei Health concluded that Company B’s market potential was insufficient to support a publicly listed company.

Company C

In March 2024, Company C, which has no affiliation with Aimei Health or its subsidiaries, was introduced to Aimei Health’s management via a financial advisor. Based in Singapore, Company C is a human genetic testing company focused on early detection of individual-specific cancer risks. After reviewing introductory information and meeting with its management, Aimei Health identified Company C as a potential merger candidate. A confidential agreement

was signed on March 8, 2024. From March to early April 2024, Aimei Health conducted due diligence, examining Company C’s financial information, share structure, and business model. However, Company C was removed from the priority list in early April as its valuation was determined to be significantly higher than its fair market price.

Timeline of the Business Combination with United Hydrogen

On March 8, 2024, Mr. Lingyi Zhu, the representative of Chain Stone Capital Limited, which is the financial advisor for United Hydrogen, reached out to Aimei Health management team through a personal referral by the CEO of Aimei Health, Mr. Junheng Xie, and noted that Aimei Health was seeking a business combination target. On March 12, 2024, Chain Stone Capital Limited introduced United Hydrogen to Aimei Health. The initial introduction meeting included the representative of Chain Stone Capital Limited, Mr. Zhu, and the CEO of Aimei Health, Mr. Xie, and was conducted via conference call. United Hydrogen is a hydrogen solutions provider, specializing in the evaluation, design, construction, post-delivery operation and management of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, as well as the sale of fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts and the design, sale and lease of fuel cell forklifts. United Hydrogen’s mission is to offer sustainable, efficient, and integrated hydrogen solutions to help clients achieve their green, zero-carbon business goals. Seeking a potential business combination, United Hydrogen expressed interest in exploring a transaction with Aimei Health. This aligned with Aimei Health’s investment thesis due to its rapid growth, experienced management team, and strong market position. A non-disclosure agreement was sent to Chain Stone Capital Limited for United Hydrogen to sign.

On April 18, 2024, Aimei Health and United Hydrogen entered into a non-disclosure agreement, allowing Aimei Health to receive and evaluate detailed information about United Hydrogen.

On April 23, 2024, an introductory conference call was held between the management teams of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. Aimei Health’s CEO, Junheng Xie, and United Hydrogen’s management team, including CEO and Chairwoman Ms. Xia Ma, discussed United Hydrogen’s business model, strategy, core capabilities, technology, and research and development propositions. United Hydrogen aims to build a comprehensive hydrogen industry ecosystem rather than focusing on specific hydrogen technologies.

On the same day, Aimei Health’s CFO, Mr. Heung Ming Wong, provided United Hydrogen with a due diligence request list.

From April 24 to April 26, 2024, several emails and conference calls occurred between the management teams of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. Aimei Health’s CEO, Junheng Xie, CFO, Mr. Heung Ming Wong and United Hydrogen’s Chairwoman, Ms. Xia Ma, were in the emails and conference calls. They discussed commercial and capital-raising plans, the prospects of a business combination, and the terms of a letter of intent (the “LOI”), including valuation, corporate governance, post-merger employment, and necessary steps for due diligence. It was also noted that Aimei Health’ officers and directors would not serve on the board or in management roles in the Pubco after the business combination.

On April 26, 2024, Aimei Health submitted a draft LOI to United Hydrogen for review. The key terms of the initial LOI included a preliminary valuation of $1.35 billion, subject to further due diligence. Additionally, the LOI proposed a 12-month lock-up period for significant United Hydrogen shareholders following the closing of the business combination.

On April 27, 2024, United Hydrogen’s founder and director, Ms. Xia Ma, submitted a revised LOI with changes to certain business terms, including valuation and lock-up period. A conference call was proposed for April 28, 2024, to discuss the revisions. Following the call, a revised LOI was submitted by Aimei Health after United Hydrogen’s shareholders emphasized that, in line with market practice and fairness for both sides, the lock-up period should be reduced from 12 months to six months. During the conference call, United Hydrogen’s CEO and Chairwoman Ms. Xia Ma, provided a detailed management presentation regarding United Hydrogen’s business development plan and the material assumptions underlying the company’s target projections, which covered the following aspects: (i) United Hydrogen’s general hydrogen services and products market is expected to show relatively fast growth from 2024 to 2026; (ii) United Hydrogen is expected to execute its growth strategies effectively and successfully, convert sales projections into MOUs, and then transform them into binding contracts to realize sales accordingly; (iii) in terms of the hydrogen energy solutions sector, United Hydrogen is expected to assist customers in designing and constructing a total of 19 hydrogen production plants and 30 hydrogen refueling stations, as well as operate and manage 12 hydrogen production plants and 27 hydrogen refueling stations during the Forecast Period (as defined below); (iv) in terms of the hydrogen commercial applications sector, United Hydrogen is expected to achieve corresponding sales or leases of

134

Table of Contents

forklifts, heavy-duty trucks, and sales of fuel cell systems as scheduled; (v) United Hydrogen is expected to establish a total of three giga plants in China and four abroad during the Forecast Period to support the production and sales of key equipment used in the hydrogen energy industry, such as electrolysis systems and fuel cell forklifts; (vi) United Hydrogen is expected to be able to retain its existing customers and procure new customers to expand its customer pool; (vii) United Hydrogen is expected to be able to develop and maintain key suppliers that can deliver services and products in a timely manner, meeting all quality, quantity, safety, cost requirements, and technical specifications; (viii) United Hydrogen is expected to be able to attract, motivate, and retain key management as well as experienced and capable personnel to maintain and grow their business; (ix) United Hydrogen is expected to be able to recruit, train, and retain qualified personnel or sufficient workforce while controlling their labor costs; (x) United Hydrogen is expected to be able to generate adequate cash inflows from its operating activities or maintain adequate external financing to support its operation and expansion; (xi) no future legislative or regulatory changes is expected to have a material adverse effect on United Hydrogen’s business, results of operations, and financial condition, which represent the material assumptions of target company projections. Both the management teams of United Hydrogen and Aimei Health understood that potential events, such as changes in global politic landscape and macroeconomic conditions, could materially impact United Hydrogen’s prospects or alter its financial projections for the future performance of the business.

On the evening of April 28, 2024, Aimei Health submitted another revised LOI, increasing the valuation range from $1,400 million to $1,450 million, to $1,450 million to $1,500 million. These valuations were changed and determined by Aimei Health management including its CEO, Mr. Junheng Xie, and its CFO, Mr. Heung Ming Wong, based on additional due diligence findings and a more detailed financial projection provided by United Hydrogen.

On April 29, 2024, United Hydrogen presented a revised LOI and requested a detailed breakdown of expenses and proposed caps for discussion.

On the same day, Aimei Health addressed United Hydrogen’s comments and changes to the LOI, sending a revised LOI along with a detailed de-SPAC expense estimation to United Hydrogen.

Following the revised LOI’s delivery, a series of emails and conference calls took place between the management teams of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen, leading to the execution of the LOI on April 29, 2024. On April 29, 2024, the management teams of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen also discussed potential PIPE financing or other funding options for the combined company. Both parties agreed that securing additional financing would benefit the development of the combined company. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, however, no PIPE financing or other additional financing has been initiated or finalized.

On May 1, 2024, Aimei Health engaged Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC as its U.S. legal counsel. In addition, Aimei Health engaged Grandall Law Firm as its PRC legal counsel to conduct legal due diligence on United Hydrogen and its business. Aimei Health also engaged CHFT to provide a valuation analysis of United Hydrogen’s equity value and an opinion on the transaction’s fairness for the shareholders of Aimei Health.

After engaging CHFT, they delivered a checklist and information request for United Hydrogen’s valuation on May 1, 2024. From May 13 to May 15, 2024, CHFT conducted on-site due diligence for its valuation analysis and fairness opinion.

On May 7, 2024, United Hydrogen proposed a timeline for the business combination, which Aimei Health reviewed.

On May 8, 2024, Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC and Grandall Law Firm held a conference call with United Hydrogen’s legal team to discuss legal due diligence, potential deal structure, and transaction responsibilities and timelines.

On May 13, 2024, after the initial data room review, Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC submitted a follow-up due diligence request list to United Hydrogen for further information.

Basis for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Recommendation — Valuation Analysis and Fairness Opinion

In addition to the foregoing factors, the board of directors of Aimei Health also considered the fairness opinion and supporting analysis provided by an independent valuation consultancy, CHFT. CHFT performed various valuation and financial analyses, including the guideline public company analyses.

CHFT provides comprehensive capital market professional services in property and business valuation, market research consultancy, ESG/sustainability advisory services. CHFT is regularly engaged in the valuation and financial assessment of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, recapitalizations, spin-offs, restructurings, securities offerings in both private and public capital markets.

CHFT was introduced to Aimei Health’s management team on May 1, 2024, when Aimei Health’s CEO, Junheng Xie, along with other directors, held an introductory conference call with CHFT to discuss the terms of the engagement letter proposed by CHFT. Pursuant to the engagement letter signed by Aimei Health on May 1, 2024, Aimei Health retained CHFT to provide a fairness opinion to the board of directors of Aimei Health in connection with the proposed merger with United Hydrogen.

In selecting CHFT, the board of directors of Aimei Health reviewed the qualifications and experiences of CHFT team to assess the competency of CHFT. The board of directors of Aimei Health also reviewed the scope of services provided under the engagement of CHFT by Aimei Health and noted that the scope of work is appropriate to the opinions given in the fairness report and there were no limitations on the scope of work. Therefore, the board of directors of Aimei Health believed that CHFT is qualified and possesses sufficient relevant experience in performing the valuation regarding the valuation of United Hydrogen.

According to CHFT, United Hydrogen does not maintain financial projections for an adequate period of years in its normal course of operations. As a result of not having adequate year projections, CHFT was unable to perform, and Aimei Health was unable to consider, a discounted cash flow analysis. An adequate financial projection period for the discounted cash flow analysis typically needs to extend from the valuation date until the company reaches a stable phase of development — namely when it enters a perpetual growth stage with a low rate close to that of long-term gross domestic product or inflation. In practice, this projection period generally needs to span at least five years. As Aimei Health advised CHFT, a forecast with respect to the future financial performance of United Hydrogen reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the management of United Hydrogen was available only for the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2026.

Summary of the Opinion of CHFT

Overview

On June 19, 2024, CHFT rendered its opinion to Aimei Health to the effect that, as of such date, the aggregate consideration to be issued by Aimei Health in the Business Combination was fair, from a financial point of view to Aimei Health and its shareholders. For purposes of its financial analyses, CHFT assumed that the aggregate consideration per the Business Combination Agreement would have a value equal to $1,500,000,000 at Closing.

CHFT’s opinion was only one of many factors considered by the Aimei Health board of directors in evaluating the Business Combination. Neither CHFT’s opinion nor its analyses were determinative of the aggregate consideration or of the views of the Aimei Health board of directors or management with respect to the Business Combination or the aggregate consideration. The type and amount of consideration payable in the Business Combination were determined through negotiations between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen, and the valuation decision was made by Aimei Health management, including its CEO and CFO, after reviewing all materials provided by United Hydrogen and its business projections. The valuation was developed based on public comparable company multiples and assumptions about future business performance, as discussed during the conference call on April 28, 2024. The valuation decision was then reviewed and approved by the board of directors of Aimei Health. The decision to enter into the Business Combination Agreement was solely that of the Aimei Health board of directors.

Procedures

CHFT’s analyses relied upon, but were not necessarily limited to, the following procedures:

1.      Reviewed the following documents:

a.      United Hydrogen’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022;

b.      Contracts of United Hydrogen with major suppliers and customers;

c.      Other internal documents relating to the history, current operations, and probable future outlook of the United Hydrogen, including financial projections for the years 2024 through 2026, prepared by the United Hydrogen, updated for current market conditions by Aimei Health management, and provided to us by management of the Aimei Health (the “Financial Projections”); and

d.      A draft of the Business Combination Agreement.

2.      Discussed with various members of senior management of United Hydrogen and Aimei Health, concerning historical and current operations, financial conditions and the Financial Projections of United Hydrogen;

3.      Discussed with senior management of Aimei Health concerning background and other elements of the proposed Business Combination;

4.      Performed certain valuation and comparative analyses using generally accepted valuation and analytical techniques including an analysis of selected public companies that CHFT deemed relevant. CHFT also considered the discounted cash flow method. United Hydrogen’s management, however, was unable to provide financial forecasts for a sufficiently long period of time, so this method was not feasible. CHFT also evaluated the cost approach, but it was deemed unsuitable as it does not capture the future economic benefits of the company’s assets, especially given that United Hydrogen is expected to continue growing in the foreseeable future. The cost approach is typically used for companies that are not expected to operate as going concerns; and

5.      Conducted such other analyses and considered such other factors as CHFT considered appropriate in rendering the opinion.

Assumptions

CHFT relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all data, materials, and other information furnished, or otherwise made available, to it, discussed with or reviewed by it, or publicly available, and did not assume any responsibility with respect to such data, material, and other information.

CHFT relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that there had been no change in the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or prospects of United Hydrogen or Aimei Health since the respective dates of the most recent financial statements and other information, financial or otherwise, provided to CHFT that would be material to its analyses or opinion, and that there was no information or any facts that would make any of the information reviewed by CHFT materially incomplete or materially misleading.

CHFT further relied upon the assurance of management of United Hydrogen and Aimei Health that they are unaware of any facts that would make the information provided to them incomplete or misleading in any respect. CHFT’s analyses were based, among other things, on the projections of United Hydrogen furnished to them by senior management of United Hydrogen and Aimei Health. In addition, CHFT assumed that the Financial Projections had been reasonably prepared by United Hydrogen’s management and reflect management’s best currently available estimates and good faith judgment of the future competitive, operating and regulatory environment and related financial performance of United Hydrogen. CHFT also relied on existing financial, economic, market, and other conditions, as well as the information available to it as of the date of its opinion.

In its review, CHFT did not obtain or receive any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities of, nor did it conduct a comprehensive physical inspection of, any of the assets of, United Hydrogen. In addition, CHFT was not furnished with any such evaluations, appraisals or reports of such physical inspections, and did not assume any responsibility to obtain any such evaluations, appraisals, or inspections.

In rendering its opinion, CHFT also assumed that: (i) the final versions of all documents reviewed by them in draft form conform in all material respects to the drafts reviewed; (ii) in all respects material to its analysis that the representations and warranties of each party contained in the Business Combination Agreement are true and correct, that each party will

138

Table of Contents

perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under the Business Combination Agreement and that all conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination will be satisfied without waiver thereof which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the consideration; (iii) there is currently no, and there will not be, as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement, or other material agreement or instrument to which Aimei Health or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iv) all material assets and liabilities of United Hydrogen were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to CHFT as of the respective dates of such financial statements.

Valuation Analysis

In assessing the valuation of United Hydrogen in connection with rendering its opinion, CHFT performed the guideline public company analyses.

Guideline Public Company Analyses

The guideline public company method, also known as the comparable company method, is a method within the market approach whereby market multiples are derived from stock prices of public companies that are engaged in the same or similar lines of business and that are actively traded on a free and open market.

United Hydrogen’s business is expected to achieve scale in 2026, the Aimei Health Board believes that the pricing multiples of 2026 is appropriate for comparison and provide the reference point.

CHFT reviewed and analyzed United Hydrogen’s trading valuation metrics and projected financial performance for the year ending December 31, 2026, compared to such information for certain publicly traded companies in the hydrogen industry that CHFT deemed relevant for purposes of its valuation analysis. CHFT selected publicly traded comparable group companies based upon its views as to the comparability of the financial, operating of these companies to United Hydrogen. CHFT selected a group of comparable companies listed on stock exchanges to provide a reasonable reference. The selection criteria for these comparable companies were as follows:

1)      Each comparable company should primarily engage in a similar business or sector as United Hydrogen. CHFT selected companies involved in the provision of hydrogen fuel cell or hydrogen solutions, with operating characteristics resembling certain elements of United Hydrogen (the “First Selection Criterion”);

2)      The comparable companies should be listed on a stock exchange in the United States or the PRC (the “Second Selection Criterion”); and

3)      The comparable companies should have financial information that is both available and publicly disclosed. In order to calculate the implied multiples of enterprise value or “EV” to 2026 estimated revenue (“EV /2026E Revenue”) and enterprise value to 2026 estimated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or “EBITDA (“EV /2026E EBITDA”), the market price of these comparable companies should be publicly available, and applicable equity research and consensus estimates should be available with respect to their estimated 2026 revenue and estimated 2026 EBITDA (the “Third Selection Criterion”).

The following seven companies met the First and Second Selection Criteria and were initially selected and used by CHFT for purposes of its valuation analyses. CHFT did not exclude the comparable companies that met both the First and Second Selection Criteria mentioned above:

Selected Comparable Group Companies

        Beijing SinoHytec Co., Ltd. (2402-HK)

        Sino-Synergy Hydrogen Energy Technology (Jiaxing) Co., Ltd. (9663-HK)

        Plug Power Inc. (PLUG-US)

        FuelCell Energy, Inc. (FCEL-US)

        Bloom Energy Corporation. (BE-US)

        Hyzon Motors Inc. (HYZN-US)

        Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. (ADN-US)

*        Note:    Beijing SinoHytec Co., Ltd., Sino-Synergy Hydrogen Energy Technology (Jiaxing) Co., Ltd., Hyzon Motors Inc. and Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. do not meet the Third Selection Criterion due to the lack of research analyst coverage for their 2026 estimated revenue and EBITDA. As a result, no available data can be used, and their EV/2026 Revenue and EV/2026E EBITDA are marked as N/A.

CHFT compared United Hydrogen with three comparable companies (PLUG, FCEL, and BE) and identified the following differences:

1)      Scale (in terms of revenue): In the fiscal year 2023, the revenue of PLUG, FCEL, and BE was US$891.3 million, US$123.4 million, and US$1,333.5 million, respectively, while United Hydrogen’s revenue for the same period was US$13.1 million.

2)      Operating history: PLUG, FCEL, and BE were established in 1997, 1969, and 2001, respectively, and their public listing years were 1999, 1992, and 2018. In comparison, United Hydrogen’s primary operating entities, Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng, were founded in 2019 and 2021, respectively. The three comparable companies have a longer operating history than United Hydrogen.

Nonetheless, CHFT ultimately used the price multiples of the above three comparable companies (PLUG, FCEL, and BE) to assess United Hydrogen’s value, primarily considering the following factors:

1)      Although the selected comparable companies vary in revenue and operational history, none of the seven companies (including those meeting the First and Second Selection Criteria) were profitable in the past three full fiscal years. This indicates that the hydrogen industry, particularly companies providing fuel cells and related solutions, is still in the early growth stage and has not yet reached the maturity stage where stable profits are generated. United Hydrogen, like the three comparable companies, is also in the early growth stage.

2)      Among the three selected comparable companies, we compared their market capitalizations as of December 31, 2023 with their EV /2026E Revenue and EV/2026E EBITDA multiples and found no linear relationship between market capitalization and price multiples. For example, PLUG’s market capitalization is smaller than BE’s, and its price multiple is also smaller than BE’s, while FCEL’s market capitalization is smaller than both PLUG and BE, but its price multiples are larger than those of PLUG and BE. This indicates that, within the current industry and the selected comparable companies, market capitalization is not a significant or relevant factor influencing the valuation of United Hydrogen.

Based on the above analysis, CHFT believes the above three selected comparable companies are appropriate as an indicator of the value of United Hydrogen.

Table of Contents

In valuing and selecting the price multiples to apply to United Hydrogen, CHFT reviewed the differences in the growth expectations, size, profitability (as measured by EBITDA margin) between United Hydrogen and the three selected comparable companies. Based on this information, CHFT used professional judgment to select price multiples that reflect the relative comparability of United Hydrogen to the three selected comparable companies. Some of the factors considered by CHFT include:

1)      Growth: For 2024 through 2026, United Hydrogen’s revenue growth rate is expected to be surpass that of all three selected comparable companies. Given that United Hydrogen is projected to grow revenue at a faster rate than its peers, all else being equal, this suggests that higher price multiples are warranted.

2)      Size: In terms of revenue, United Hydrogen is expected to be smaller than the average of the three comparable companies from 2024 through 2026, even though United Hydrogen is growing. The relationship between company size and price multiples is complex. Generally, in a bear market, investors may expect larger companies, with their economies of scale and market positions, to be more resilient to risk, which could lead to higher price multiples for these larger firms. In a bull market, however, investors may anticipate that smaller companies have greater market potential, which could result in higher price multiples for smaller firms.

3)      Profitability: In 2024 and 2025, United Hydrogen’s expected EBITDA margins exceed the average expected EBITDA margins of the three selected comparable companies, while in 2026, United Hydrogen’s expected EBITDA margin is anticipated to be close to the average of the three selected comparable companies. All else being equal, higher margins generally justify higher price multiples.

As discussed above, certain factors suggest that United Hydrogen could trade at a premium compared to the comparable companies (e.g., relative growth expectations and profitability), while other factors indicate it may trade at a discount (e.g., smaller size). Ultimately, CHFT believes that the current average price multiples are relatively conservative yet appropriate for United Hydrogen.

In performing its guideline public company analyses:

        CHFT applied selected multiple ranges of 1.3x to 1.6x estimated 2026E revenue, and 11.1x to 16.0x estimated 2026E EBITDA to corresponding financial data for United Hydrogen for purposes of valuing United Hydrogen on a stand-alone public market trading basis.

        The selected companies’ analyses indicated implied total equity value reference ranges for United Hydrogen of US$1,343 million to US$1,653 million based on estimated 2026E revenue, and US$1,209 million to US$1,742 million based on estimated 2026E EBITDA, in each case as compared to the implied total equity value for the business combination of US$ One Billion and Five Hundred Million.

        CHFT noted that the aggregate merger consideration was within the aforementioned valuation reference ranges based on guideline public company analyses.

Disclosure of Fee and Prior Relationships

As compensation for CHFT’s services in connection with the rendering of its opinion to the board of directors of Aimei Health, Aimei Health agreed to pay CHFT a fee of RMB610,000 (approximately $83,000). Aimei Health has agreed to indemnify CHFT against certain liabilities arising out of or in connection with the services rendered and to be rendered by CHFT. Except for the aforementioned compensation, CHFT has not received, and will not receive, any other payment or compensation, including any compensation contingent upon the successful consummation of the Business Combination.

During the two-year period prior to the date of CHFT’s opinion, no material relationship existed between CHFT or its affiliates or unaffiliated representatives and Aimei Health or any of its affiliates pursuant to which compensation was received by CHFT. CHFT may seek to provide valuation and consultancy services to the Aimei Health, or its respective affiliates in the future, for which CHFT would seek customary compensation. However, any such future relationship is not currently contemplated.

Conclusions

The preparation of CHFT’s opinion was a complex, analytical process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description.

CHFT’s draft fairness opinion, which was reviewed by the Aimei Health board of directors prior to approving the final terms of the Business Combination, indicates that based upon the investigation, analysis, and assumptions described therein, the total consideration to be paid for United Hydrogen of one billion and five hundred million ($1,500,000,000) is fair to the shareholders of Aimei Health from a financial point of view.

The full text of the written opinion of CHFT dated June 19, 2024, which sets forth assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with the opinion, are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex F. You are encouraged to read the opinion in its entirety for a discussion of the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations upon the scope of the review undertaken by CHFT in rendering its opinion. CHFT’s opinion is directed to Aimei Health and addresses only their opinion on the fair market value of United Hydrogen as of the respective appraisal date as set forth in the opinion. The CHFT opinion is not a recommendation as to how any holder of Aimei Health ordinary shares should vote with respect to the Business Combination or any other matter. The summary of the opinions of CHFT set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the opinion.

Reasons for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Approval of the Business Combination

Aimei Health was formed to complete a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more business entities. As described above, the Aimei Health board of directors sought to do so by using the networks and industry experience of both the Sponsor, the Aimei Health board of directors, and Aimei Health’s management to identify and acquire one or more businesses.

In approving the Business Combination, the Aimei Health board of directors discussed the valuation of United Hydrogen. The board considered United Hydrogen’s financial results, the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections (defined below), industry and market trends, and the valuation of comparable companies. Additionally, the Aimei Health board reviewed the valuation analysis and comparison presented in the fairness opinion provided by CHFT. The board also took into account the potential dilution of non-redeeming shareholders, including the dilution resulting from United Hydrogen shareholders and other dilution detailed in this proxy statement/prospectus (see “Dilution to the Shareholders off Aimei Health”). Considering the transaction terms, the combined company will issue 150 million Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to the shareholders of United Hydrogen in the current consideration paid in the business combination. This consideration was based on the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections provided by United Hydrogen’s management and supported by a fairness opinion from CHFT.

In reaching its decision with respect to the Business Combination, Aimei Health’s board of directors considered views of Aimei Health’s management regarding the opportunity represented by the proposed transaction and evaluated the investor presentation provided by United Hydrogen. Aimei Health’s management discussed its diligence to the board, which included but not limited to:

        review of United Hydrogen’s draft financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022;

        review of the fairness opinion provided by CHFT, which is attached hereto as Annex F (for more details, please refer to “— Summary of the Opinion of CHFT”);

        review of the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections (for more details, please refer to “— Summary of Financial Analysis”);

        review of United Hydrogen’s descriptions of its business operations;

        review of financial data of public companies that are comparable to United Hydrogen;

        review of a draft due diligence report and memorandum on major legal issues involved in the business combination between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen, prepared by Grandall Law Firm, Aimei Health’s PRC counsel;

        review of United Hydrogen’ corporate records, material agreements, employment agreements, tax, litigation, and other business-relevant materials;

        discussions with United Hydrogen’s management;

        third-party background checks on United Hydrogen’ management and directors;

In evaluating the proposed transaction with United Hydrogen, the Aimei Health board of directors consulted with its legal counsel and accounting, CHFT, and other advisors. In determining that the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were in Aimei Health’s best interests, the Aimei Health board of directors considered and evaluated a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the factors discussed below. United Hydrogen’s draft financial statements, the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections, and CHFT’s fairness opinion provided the Aimei Health board of directors with a quantitative analysis of United Hydrogen’s valuation. Descriptions of the United Hydrogen’s business operation, due diligence reports, and other related materials offered the board with qualitative insights into potential risks from business, legal, and market perspectives. Additionally, the board members inquired with CHFT staff about the assumptions and methodology underlining their valuation and fairness opinions, and, based on their respective transactional experience and industry knowledge, engaged in a careful review of the financial stability, profitability, and growth potential of the target company regarding the above factors and the benefits of transitioning it to a public company. The board members also assessed the risks related to financing, industry market dynamics, and broader economic conditions that may impact the target company’s performance and trends. In light of the number and wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Aimei Health board of directors did not consider it practicable to, and did not attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that the Aimei Health board of directors considered in reaching its determination and supporting its decision, although the board members prioritized the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections and the fairness opinion as key considerations when assessing the valuation of United Hydrogen. The Aimei Health board of directors viewed its decision as being based on all of the information available and the factors presented to and considered by the Aimei Health board of directors. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. The Aimei Health board of directors realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the following reasons. This explanation of Aimei Health’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements.”

The members of the Aimei Health board of directors are well qualified to evaluate the Business Combination with United Hydrogen. The Aimei Health board of directors and management collectively have extensive transactional experience. In particular, in addition to its review of United Hydrogen’s equity value and the consideration to be paid in connection with the proposed Business Combination, the Aimei Health board of directors considered the following reasons or made the following determinations, as applicable:

        United Hydrogen satisfies a number of acquisition criteria that Aimei Health had established to evaluate prospective business combination targets.    The Aimei Health board of directors considered the business, history, prospects, credibility, and valuation of United Hydrogen and its affiliates, and determined that United Hydrogen satisfies a number of criteria and guidelines set forth during the IPO, including (i) high growth prospects with sustainable proprietary position; (ii) experienced management teams with previous successes; and (iii) comprehensive business coverage, deep understanding of customers’ needs, with a flexible business model, partnership with industry leaders and experienced and knowledgeable management team.

        Favorable prospects for future growth.    Information from Aimei Health and United Hydrogen’s management regarding (i) United Hydrogen’s business, prospects, financial condition, operations, technology, services, management, competitive position, and strategic business goals and objectives; (ii) general economic, industry, regulatory, and financial market conditions; and (iii) opportunities and competitive factors within United Hydrogen’s industry.

        Visionary management team with a proven track record of innovation and execution.    United Hydrogen is led by a management team with extensive experience in hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial solutions. In addition, the Aimei Health board of directors considered Ms. Ma’s holdings of Pubco securities following the Business Combination, and her ability to sell substantially all such holdings yet still retain control over the company due to her holdings of Pubco Class B Ordinary Share having ten (10) votes per share compared to the one vote per share to which Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled. These aspects did not change Aimei Health board of directors’ determination because (i) the Aimei Health board of directors took notice that similar dual-class shareholding structure had been adopted by other public companies for the benefit of their founders; (ii) Ms. Ma will be subject to lock-up; (iii) upon Closing, Ms. Ma will still be subject to her fiduciary duties under the laws of the Cayman Islands and the Amended Pubco Articles (which form is included as Annex B to this proxy statement/prospectus) in

143

Table of Contents

exercising her decision-making powers as Chairperson, Director and Chief Executive Officer of Pubco; and (iv) the Aimei Health board of directors reviewed Ms. Ma’s professional and industry experience, as well as her long tenure with United Hydrogen.

        Best available opportunity.    The Aimei Health board of directors determined, after a thorough review of other business combination opportunities reasonably available to Aimei Health, that the proposed Business Combination represents the best potential business combination for Aimei Health based upon the process utilized to evaluate and assess other potential acquisition targets, and the Aimei Health board of directors’ belief that such processes had not presented a better alternative.

        Continued significant ownership by United Hydrogen.    The Aimei Health board of directors considered that United Hydrogen’s existing equity holders would be receiving a significant amount of Pubco Ordinary Shares in the proposed Business Combination and that United Hydrogen’s principal shareholders and key executives are “rolling over” their existing equity interests of United Hydrogen into equity interests in Pubco. The current United Hydrogen shareholders are expected to own approximately 84.97% of the outstanding Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and 100% of the outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares, together constituting approximately 98.93% of the voting power of the Pubco Ordinary Shares voting together as a single class, assuming none of Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.

        Likelihood of closing the business combination.    The Aimei Health board of directors believes that an acquisition by Aimei Health has a reasonable likelihood of closing without potential issues under applicable antitrust and competition laws and without potential issues from any regulatory authorities.

The Aimei Health board of directors also considered a variety of uncertainties and risks and other potentially negative factors concerning the Business Combination, including but not limited to the following:

        Business risk.    The risk that the future financial performance of United Hydrogen may not meet the Aimei Health board of directors’ expectations due to factors in United Hydrogen’s control or out of United Hydrogen’s control, such as United Hydrogen’s failure to continuously innovate, to attract and retain customers, to adapt to new businesses, to obtain sufficient capital, to maintain its competitive edge in the business of hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial solutions, among others.

        Industry risk.    The risk that the hydrogen energy industry in which United Hydrogen operates is significantly impacted by significant adverse regulatory developments.

        Closing of the Business Combination May Not Occur.    The risks and costs to Aimei Health if the Business Combination is not completed, including the risk of diverting management focus and resources to other business combination opportunities, which could result in Aimei Health being unable to effect a business combination within the timeframe set forth under Aimei Health’s current charter, forcing Aimei Health to liquidate the trust account.

        Current Public Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights.    The risk that some of Aimei Health’s current Public Shareholders would decide to exercise their redemption rights, thereby depleting the amount of cash available in the trust account.

        Closing Conditions of the Business Combination.    The fact that the Closing is conditioned on satisfying certain closing conditions, many of which are not within Aimei Health’s control.

        Aimei Health Shareholders Not Holding a Majority Position in Pubco.    The fact that Aimei Health shareholders will not hold a majority position in Pubco following the Business Combination, which will reduce the influence that Aimei Health’s current shareholders have on Pubco’s management.

        Post-Closing Corporate Governance.    The fact that post-Closing, Ms. Xia Ma will control the voting power of all outstanding Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares and approximately 93.15% voting power of the total issued and outstanding Pubco Ordinary Shares voting together as a single class assuming a “no redemption” scenario. Given Ms. Ma’s voting power over the Pubco Ordinary Shares as described in this paragraph, she will effectively be able to nominate, appoint, and remove the entirety of Pubco’s board of directors. Ms. Ma will therefore have decisive influence over matters requiring shareholder approval by ordinary resolution and significant influence over matters requiring shareholder approval by special resolution, including significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or sale of Pubco or its assets.

144

Table of Contents

        Litigation Related to the Business Combination.    The risk of potential litigation challenging the Business Combination.

        No Survival of Remedies for Breach of Representations, Warranties, or Covenants of United Hydrogen.    The Business Combination Agreement provides that Aimei Health will not have any surviving remedies against United Hydrogen or its equity holders after the Closing to recover for losses as a result of any inaccuracies or breaches of the representations, warranties or covenants of United Hydrogen set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. As a result, Aimei Health shareholders could be adversely affected by, among other things, a decrease in the financial performance or worsening of financial condition of United Hydrogen prior to the Closing, whether determined before or after the Closing, without any ability to recover for the amount of any damages. The Aimei Health board of directors determined that this structure was appropriate and customary in light of the fact that several similar transactions include similar terms and the current equity holders of United Hydrogen will be, collectively, the majority equity holders in Pubco and therefore would bear a majority of any such losses.

        Transaction Fees and Expenses Incurred by Aimei Health.    The substantial transaction fees and expenses to be incurred in connection with the Business Combination and the negative impact of such expenses on Aimei Health’s cash reserves and operating results if the Business Combination is not completed.

        Negative Impact Resulting from the Announcement of the Business Combination.    The possible negative effect of the Business Combination and public announcement of the Business Combination of Aimei Health’s financial performance, operating results, and share price.

        Other Risks.    Other factors that the Aimei Health board of directors deemed relevant, including various other risks associated with the Business Combination, Aimei Health’s business, and United Hydrogen’s business as described under “Risk Factors.”

The Business Combination is not structured to require the approval of at least a majority of unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health. No unaffiliated representative has been retained by a majority of the directors who are not employees of Aimei Health to act solely on behalf of the unaffiliated shareholders of Aimei Health for purposes of negotiating the terms of the Business Combination on their behalf and/or preparing a report concerning the approval of the Business Combination. The Business Combination was unanimously approved by the board of directors of Aimei Health.

Benefits and Detriments of the Business Combination to United Hydrogen

Benefits of the Business Combination to United Hydrogen

The Business Combination will provide United Hydrogen with increased access to capital markets. By becoming a publicly traded company on Nasdaq, Pubco is expected to gain access to a broader range of capital-raising opportunities, which will enhance its ability to fund growth initiatives. Additionally, the proceeds from the Business Combination, if available, are expected to be used to support Pubco’s business operations and growth strategies. These include signing and retaining new clients, completing ongoing refueling station projects, further investing in technology research and development, and funding general corporate purposes.

The Business Combination is also expected to enhance United Hydrogen’s market visibility. Being publicly listed on Nasdaq may raise its profile, improve market perception and credibility and help attract new clients and business partners. Furthermore, the public listing could create opportunities for long-term value appreciation for United Hydrogen’s initial shareholders, as the market may assign a higher valuation to Pubco due to its Nasdaq listing and growth prospects.

Detriments and Challenges of the Business Combination to United Hydrogen

Despite these benefits, Pubco is expected to face higher operating costs as a result of becoming a publicly listed company. As an SEC-registered and NASDAQ-listed company, Pubco will incur significantly higher expenses associated with hiring additional personnel, increased audit, legal, and administrative costs, and compliance with public company regulatory requirements. These increased expenses could reduce profitability, particularly in the short term.

The transition to a public company will also add complexity to United Hydrogen’s operations. Pubco will need to establish new processes and internal controls to meet its reporting obligations, which could divert management’s attention from core business activities. Additionally, the need for substantial capital and operating expenditures will increase. Pubco will have to invest heavily in marketing, infrastructure, technology, and human resources to support and grow its operations.

Financial Implications

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the most significant change in Pubco’s future reported financial position and results is expected to be changes in cash. Assuming that, other than the redemption of 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health in February 2025, no additional Public Shares will be redeemed upon the completion of the Business Combination, the pro forma cash balance as of December 31, 2024, would be approximately $40.9 million, while the pro forma cash balance as of December 31, 2024, assuming redemption of maximum shareholder redemptions permitted under the Business Combination, would be nil. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”. These changes are expected to affect Pubco’s ability to execute its growth strategy and manage its financial obligations effectively.

Summary of Financial Analysis

Certain United Hydrogen Projected Financial Information

To assess United Hydrogen’s financial condition and whether to proceed with the Business Combination, Aimei Health received various documents from United Hydrogen, including financial projections for the years ending December 31, 2024 through December 31, 2026 (the “Original United Hydrogen Management Projections”), copies of material contracts, and summaries of various industry analysis and trends. The Aimei Health board of directors reviewed and discussed with its financial advisor, CHFT, regarding the latter’s analysis in rendering the fairness opinion described in the proxy statement/prospectus. In rendering its opinion on the fairness of the transaction, CHFT reviewed the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections provided by United Hydrogen.

Neither Aimei Health nor United Hydrogen as a matter of course discloses public projections as to future sales, earnings, or other results. However, United Hydrogen management specifically prepared the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections to assist the Aimei Health Board in its consideration of the proposed Business Combination. The Original United Hydrogen Management Projections were initially provided to Aimei Health on or about April 23, 2024, and finalized in May 2024. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections no longer reflect United Hydrogen’s outlook but remain included in this proxy statement/prospectus solely because they were made available to Aimei Health and its advisors, prior to approval by the Aimei Health Board of the Business Combination and the execution of the Business Combination Agreement on June 19, 2024, as described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

On or about February 20, 2025, United Hydrogen management provided Aimei Health management with updated financial forecasts for the calendar years ending December 31, 2024 through December 31, 2028 (the “Updated United Hydrogen Management Projections” or “Updated Projections” and, together with the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections, collectively, the “United Hydrogen Management Projections”).

United Hydrogen management prepared such financial information based on their judgment and assumptions regarding the future financial performance of United Hydrogen. Aimei Health is including the following summary of certain United Hydrogen internal, unaudited prospective financial information from Original United Hydrogen Management Projections solely because that information was made available to Aimei Health board of directors and financial advisor in connection with the evaluation of the Business Combination. The United Hydrogen Management Projections are being provided for information purposes only and are not and should not be viewed as public guidance regarding the future performance of United Hydrogen. The inclusion of the below information should not be regarded as an indication that Aimei Health or any other recipient of this information considered — or now considers — it to be necessarily predictive of actual future results. Furthermore, no United Hydrogen Management Projections take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date they were prepared. You should review the financial statements of United Hydrogen included in this proxy statement/prospectus, as well as the financial information in this proxy statement/prospectus and not rely on any single financial measure.

There undoubtedly will be differences between actual and projected results, and the differences may be material. The risk that these uncertainties and contingencies could cause the assumptions to fail to be reflective of actual results is further increased by the length of time over which these assumptions apply. The failure to achieve assumptions and projections in early periods could have a compounding effect on the projections shown for the later periods. Thus, any such failure of an assumption or projection to be reflective of actual results in an early period could have a greater effect on the projected results failing to be reflective of actual events in later periods.

146

Table of Contents

While presented in this proxy statement/prospectus with numeric specificity, the United Hydrogen Management Projections are forward-looking statements that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties, reflect numerous estimates and assumptions with respect to general business, economic, industry, regulatory, market and financial conditions and trends and other future events, as well as matters specific to United Hydrogen’s business, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond United Hydrogen’s control. The various risks and uncertainties include risks set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors,” “United Hydrogen Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Forward-Looking Statements.” As a result, there can be no assurance that the projected results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than projected. These United Hydrogen Management Projections are subjective in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments. United Hydrogen believes the assumptions in the prospective financial information were reasonable at the time the financial information was prepared, given the information United Hydrogen had at the time. However, important factors that may affect actual results and cause the results reflected in the prospective financial information not to be achieved include, among other things, risks and uncertainties relating to United Hydrogen’s business, industry performance, the regulatory environment, and general business and economic conditions.

The United Hydrogen Management Projections were not prepared with a view towards public disclosure or compliance with the published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information. The United Hydrogen Management Projections were prepared solely for internal use, and capital budgeting and other management purposes, and are subjective in many respects and therefore susceptible to varying interpretations and the need for periodic revision based on actual experience and business developments, and were not intended for third-party use, including by investors or equity or debt holders. The United Hydrogen Management Projections are being provided here solely to disclose information that was provided to Aimei Health in the course of its evaluation of United Hydrogen. In the view of United Hydrogen’s management, the prospective financial information was prepared on a reasonable basis, reflected the best available estimates and judgments at the time, and presented, to the best of management’s knowledge and belief at the time, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of United Hydrogen. However, projections are inherently uncertain and accordingly, actual results may differ materially from the projections.

The United Hydrogen Management Projections were requested by, and disclosed to, Aimei Health for use as a component in its overall evaluation of United Hydrogen. The Aimei Health board of directors considered and relied upon the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections in determining the valuation for United Hydrogen in the Business Combination. For further details about financial analysis undertaken by the Aimei Health board of directors and Aimei Health’s management in reliance upon the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections, see “The Business Combination Proposal — Reasons for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Approval of the Business Combination.” Neither United Hydrogen’s management nor any of its representatives has made or makes any representation to any person regarding the ultimate performance of United Hydrogen compared to the information contained in the United Hydrogen Management Projections, and none of them intends to or undertakes any obligation to update or otherwise revise the United Hydrogen Management Projections to reflect circumstances existing after the United Hydrogen Management Projections were finalized to reflect the occurrence of future events in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the United Hydrogen Management Projections are shown to be in error. Accordingly, they should not be looked upon as “guidance” of any sort. United Hydrogen will not refer back to these projections in its future periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act. The financial projections are included in this proxy statement/prospectus solely for informational purposes and not to induce any Aimei Health shareholders to vote in favor of any of the proposals at the Meeting.

Further, the inclusion of financial projections in this proxy statement/prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, their respective boards of directors, or their respective affiliates, advisors or other representatives considered, or now consider, such financial projections necessarily to be predictive of actual future results or to support or fail to support your decision whether to vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal. You are cautioned that the projections solely represent United Hydrogen’s best efforts in predicting future operating results and must be considered in that light. As a result, in making a decision regarding the Business Combination, please understand that the projections may be materially different than actual results. Aimei Health does not intend to reference these financial projections in its future periodic reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

Original United Hydrogen Management Projections

United Hydrogen management prepared the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections in connection with its consideration of the potential Business Combination. The Original United Hydrogen Management Projections are unaudited, based upon estimated results of United Hydrogen management and do not include the impact of the accounting for the Business Combination or other impacts from the consummation of the Business Combination. The key elements of the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections are summarized below.

As the hydrogen energy industry is an emerging sector with relatively low market concentration, United Hydrogen anticipated that the listing preparation and promotional roadshows planned for the second half of 2024 would significantly boost the company’s brand exposure, driving substantial business cooperation and potentially facilitating the signing of more contracts and achievement of revenue goals. Additionally, many hydrogen energy projects are primarily driven by local governments or their affiliated enterprises, making them susceptible to local government incentive policies. Starting in mid-2024, there are numerous local incentive regulations, such as subsidies for hydrogen equipment investment and toll rebates for hydrogen vehicles, which have accelerated market demand for the company’s services and contributed to revenue growth in the second half of 2024. The key elements of the projections provided by United Hydrogen’s management team to Aimei Health are summarized in the table below with specific assumptions immediately following the table:

*        The Original United Hydrogen Management Projections were translated to U.S. dollars, applying an exchange rate of RMB7.09 to US$1.00 as of December 31, 2023, as sourced from FactSet.

**      The financial projections are anticipated to require approximately US$75 M additional financing in the next two years. The respective financing purposes and amount allocation are shown in the following: The hydrogen energy solutions sector expects to require US$20 M which will be invested in hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations.

148

Table of Contents

The hydrogen commercial applications sector expects to have US$4.5 M for forklifts and heavy-duty trucks purchase to further develop the leasing business. The investments for giga plants are expected to be US$42 M in total, which include the investment in plants and production lines of US$34.5M and investment in R&D of US7.5 M. The investment in working capital is estimated to be US$8.5 M.

The assumptions, estimates, and bases considered in the Original United Hydrogen Management Projections included, but were not limited to, the following:

1.      The general hydrogen services and products market will show relatively fast growth from 2024 to 2026 (the “Forecast Period”).

2.      United Hydrogen’s revenue is expected to maintain rapid growth during the forecast period. United Hydrogen’s projections are generally prepared using a “bottom-up” methodology. This means that detailed assumptions were made to build up the projections, rather than utilizing a high-level “top-down” methodology. United Hydrogen believes that this “bottom-up” methodology leads to more reasonable and accurate results, since there are no identical comparables to United Hydrogen and its business development.

         Specifically, the revenue is projected to grow by 634% from approximately US$13.1 M in 2023 to approximately US$96.2 M in 2024, mainly due to:

1)      The development of the existing hydrogen energy solutions sector. Due to United Hydrogen’s market expansion and strengthened synergy across its business lines, United Hydrogen expects to assist customers in designing and constructing a total of 4 hydrogen production plants and 8 hydrogen refueling stations, as well as to operate and manage 2 hydrogen production plants and 5 hydrogen refueling stations in 2024. The revenue from the existing hydrogen energy solutions sector in 2023 was approximately US$12.0 M, and it is projected to grow by 186% to approximately US$34.3M in 2024.

2)      The development of the existing hydrogen commercial applications sector. United Hydrogen expects to collaborate with operators in ports, docks, and mines, and in addition to the sales and lease of hydrogen fuel cell systems and fuel cell forklifts, it will expand sales and leasing of heavy-duty trucks and fuel cells of heavy trucks. Since the 2023 revenue base was relatively low, at around US$1.1M, it is projected to grow about 35 times to approximately US$40.0 M in 2024.

3)      The growth of the new giga plant business. United Hydrogen is expected to begin establishing 1 giga plant in China and 1 giga plant abroad in 2024, which is projected to generate an additional US$21.8 M in equipment sales.

As of the end of December 2024, United Hydrogen has signed contracts worth approximately US$52.6 million for 2024, with potential pending contracts or letters of intent totaling around US$130.0 million. These figures are based on the estimated revenue expected to be generated from the respective contracts. Additionally, there are several cooperative intent agreements without specified amounts, as well as potential new contracts and letters of intent expected to be signed in the remaining months. Taking all of the above into consideration, United Hydrogen management believes that adopting a higher growth rate in 2024 compared to 2023 is appropriate.

United Hydrogen has engaged in five construction contracts, including one for a hydrogen production plant, three for hydrogen refueling stations, and one for project relocation services. These contracts are nearing completion, and additional construction-related contracts are currently under negotiation. Typically, the timeline for completing the evaluation, design, and construction of a hydrogen production plant spans 9 to 18 months, while for hydrogen refueling stations, the process generally takes 2 to 12 months. Since the construction of hydrogen production plants and refueling stations is carried out through third-party construction contractors, the company typically receives advance payments from clients. These funds are then used to procure the necessary equipment from suppliers, ensuring payments are made without utilizing the company’s own capital. Additionally, United Hydrogen has developed a reliable labor supply mechanism and established stable and positive partnerships with third-party construction contractors. This allows the company to promptly collaborate with these contractors to supply sufficient workers based on project demands.

Table of Contents

The pending contracts or letters of intent primarily consist of anticipated agreements for hydrogen sales and equipment sales. The execution timelines for these contracts are expected to be shorter than those for construction-related contracts. United Hydrogen will select appropriate suppliers to provide the necessary products and equipment to meet customer needs, thereby generating sales revenue. It is worth noting that the final execution outcomes and revenue are currently uncertain and can only be observed after the completion of the annual audit.

As of December 31, 2024, United Hydrogen management estimates that approximately US$49.4 million in unaudited revenue was earned in 2024.

For the hydrogen production plant contract completed in 2024 among the five construction contracts, the project spanned approximately 13 months. When the contract was signed, the client paid a certain percentage as an advance payment. United Hydrogen then undertook the following tasks: a) preliminary planning and design, including evaluating the client’s requirements, selecting the hydrogen production process, and designing the hydrogen production workflow; b) obtaining project approvals and permits; and c) engaging a professional construction team to carry out infrastructure construction. Completing these tasks took about eight months. Meanwhile, after determining the hydrogen production process, United Hydrogen procured the required equipment. When the equipment was ready for delivery, United Hydrogen submitted a delivery schedule to the client and, after receiving payment, arranged for the shipment to the client’s site. It took about five months for equipment installation and commissioning. Following the completion of commissioning and acceptance by the client, the final acceptance payment was made, marking the completion of the entire project.

The average completion time for the three hydrogen refueling stations in 2024 among the five construction contracts was approximately five months. Taking one hydrogen refueling station as an example, after signing the contract, the client paid an advance payment. United Hydrogen required about three months to carry out preparatory work, including handling relevant formalities, finalizing construction design plans, and performing civil engineering. During this period, United Hydrogen simultaneously ordered the necessary equipment for the hydrogen refueling station. Once the preparatory work was completed and the equipment was ready for delivery, United Hydrogen arranged the shipment to the client’s site upon receiving the delivery payment from the client. Installation and commissioning took about two months once the equipment arrived. After the installation and commissioning were completed and the client provided final acceptance, the acceptance payment was made, marking the project’s conclusion.

As of December 31, 2024, all five construction contracts had been completed, with approximately US$10.8 million earned as revenue in 2024.

Among the US$46.7 million in potential pending contracts or letters of intent, as of December 31, 2024, United Hydrogen management estimates that approximately US$28.4 million in unaudited revenue was generated in 2024.

         United Hydrogen is expected to generate revenues of US$429M in 2025 and US$1,032M in 2026, corresponding to growth rates of 346% and 141%, respectively. Specifically:

1)     In terms of the hydrogen energy solutions sector, United Hydrogen is expected to assist customers in designing, and constructing a total of 19 hydrogen production plants (7 in 2025 and 8 in 2026) and 30 hydrogen refueling stations (10 in 2025 and 12 in 2026), as well as operate and manage 12 hydrogen production plants (4 in 2025 and 6 in 2026) and 27 hydrogen refueling stations (9 in 2025 and 13 in 2026) during the Forecast Period. The newly constructed hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations are expected to be primarily located in China’s Hebei, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shandong, Shanxi, Guangdong provinces, and the East China region — areas leading China in hydrogen industry development and demand. The corresponding construction unit prices were determined by management based on historical unit prices from similar projects, adjusted for project capacity. The unit prices for operating and managing the hydrogen production plants and refueling stations were derived by referencing the company’s historical pricing levels. Due to business synergies, the United Hydrogen will also engage in partial hydrogen sales. Overall, the growth rates for this sector in 2025 and 2026 are expected to be 259% and 68%, respectively.

2)      In terms of the hydrogen commercial applications sector, United Hydrogen will be able to achieve corresponding sales or leases of forklifts, heavy-duty trucks, and sales of fuel cell systems as scheduled. Specifically, in 2025 and 2026, a total of 600 and 1,200 forklifts, and 1,000 and 3,100 heavy trucks, are expected to be sold or leased to external end customers. The demand for these forklifts and heavy trucks mainly originates from ports, terminals, mines, and logistics companies in regions such as Shandong, Liaoning, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, and East China, where there is significant demand for hydrogen-powered forklifts and heavy trucks. The projected sales quantities of fuel cell systems for forklifts and heavy trucks are expected to match the respective sales and rental volumes of forklifts and heavy trucks. The rental or sales unit prices for the above equipment were determined by United Hydrogen’s management based on existing sales prices and consideration of similar product prices in the market. United Hydrogen anticipates growth rates for this sector of 301% and 215% in 2025 and 2026, respectively.

3)      United Hydrogen is expected to establish a total of 3 giga plants in China (1 in 2024, 1 in 2025 and 1 in 2026) and 4 abroad (1 in 2024, 1 in 2025 and 2 in 2026) during the Forecast Period to support the production and sales of key equipment used in the hydrogen energy industry, such as electrolysis systems and fuel cell forklifts. United Hydrogen expects to sell a total of 956 and 1,990 units of forklifts, hydrogen storage and supply equipment, hydrogen production equipment, and hydrogen power generation products in 2025 and 2026, respectively, in both China and overseas markets. This forecast primarily considers demand for domestic hydrogen retrofitting of ships, hydrogen system replacements for port cranes, and the needs of upstream and downstream enterprises for these products. International sales are expected to focus on regions such as Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. The unit prices of the above products were determined by management with reference to the prices of similar products in the market. United Hydrogen anticipates growth rates for this sector of 563% and 120% in 2025 and 2026, respectively.

         These assumptions and estimates may be affected by material factors and limitations, including:

        whether the existing number of customers will not experience attrition during the Forecast Period, and that the revenue generated from retained customers will not significantly decline.

        whether United Hydrogen, due to its relatively smaller sales scale, will face intensified competition during the Forecast Period.

        whether United Hydrogen can attract enough sales personnel, and the sales staff can contribute to the anticipated sales growth.

        Whether United Hydrogen will be able to execute its growth strategies effectively and successfully, convert sales projections into MOUs, and then transform them into binding contracts to realize sales accordingly.

Most of United Hydrogen’s equipment sales contracts are completed within one year, while the lease and construction-related contracts may extend beyond one year. As of the end of December 2024, the signed contract amounts for 2025 and 2026 are approximately US$47.6 million and US$1.4 million, respectively, with the remaining projected amounts currently lacking signed contract.

United Hydrogen’s management also conducted research on companies within the hydrogen energy industry and found that United Hydrogen’s projected revenue growth trends are similar to those of two peer companies, Hyliion Holdings Corp. and Advent Technology Holdings, Inc., both of which went public through mergers with special purpose acquisition companies. Investor presentation documents included in the Form 8-K filings submitted by Hyliion Holdings Corp. on June 18, 2020, and Advent Technology Holdings, Inc. on October 13, 2020, to the SEC, contain financial forecasts. Specifically, Hyliion Holdings Corp. projected revenue of approximately US$8 M for 2021, while Advent Technology Holdings, Inc. projected revenue of approximately US$13 M for the same year. The 2021 revenue scales for these two companies are close to United Hydrogen’s 2023 revenue scale (approximately US$13.1 M). At the same time, both companies anticipated very high revenue growth following 2021. Hyliion Holdings Corp. projected a 42-fold revenue increase in 2022, with a three-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 539% post-2021; Advent Technology Holdings, Inc. forecasted a three-year CAGR of 110% following 2021. Currently, United Hydrogen’s projected CAGR over the forecast period is approximately 329%, roughly the

151

Table of Contents

average of the two companies’ projected CAGRs. Therefore, considering United Hydrogen’s current lower revenue scale and the growth patterns of peer companies, management believes that the projected growth rate for United Hydrogen over the Forecast Period is reasonable.

3.      United Hydrogen will be able to retain its existing customers and procure new customers to expand its customer pool.

4.      United Hydrogen will be able to develop and maintain key suppliers that can deliver services and products in a timely manner, meeting all quality, quantity, safety, cost requirements, and technical specifications.

5.      United Hydrogen will be able to attract, motivate and retain key management as well as experienced and capable personnel to maintain and grow their business.

6.      United Hydrogen will be able to recruit, train and retain qualified personnel or sufficient workforce while controlling their labor costs.

7.      United Hydrogen will be able to generate adequate cash inflows from its operating activities or maintain adequate external financing to support its operation and expansion.

8.      Future legislative or regulatory changes would not have a material adverse effect on United Hydrogen’s business, results of operations, and financial condition.

The Updated Projections were translated to U.S. dollars, applying an exchange rate of RMB7.30 to US$1.00 as of December 31, 2024, as sourced from FactSet.

The assumptions, estimates, and bases considered in the Updated Projections include, but are not limited to, the following:

1.      As of December 31, 2024, United Hydrogen management estimates that approximately US$49.6M in unaudited revenue was earned in 2024 based on the unaudited management reports. The discrepancies compared to the original projections of US$ 96M in revenue are attributed to the following reasons:

1)      In terms of the hydrogen energy solutions sector, business progress has not met expectations. Due to customer-related documentation issues, several planned construction projects in 2024 have been postponed and failed to further advance. The actual number of hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen production plants that United Hydrogen anticipated constructing in 2024 fell short of expectations.

2)      In terms of the hydrogen commercial applications sector, the supplier delivery schedules have impacted fulfilment. Due to delays in heavy truck deliveries and documentation processes from suppliers, as well as shifts in customer demand, the actual sales and rentals of heavy trucks and actual sales volume of fuel cell systems in 2024 are expected to be below the original projections.

3)      United Hydrogen has recalibrated the pace of establishing giga plants in China and abroad. United Hydrogen was originally expected to establish 1 giga plant in China and 1 giga plant abroad in 2024. The establishment of 1 giga plant abroad has been suspended since United Hydrogen has shifted its overseas development strategy to focus on establishing joint ventures for overseas expansion, which has temporarily impacted the revenue generation.

4)      United Hydrogen management dedicated significant resources and focus to its de-SPAC transaction with Aimei Health during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which temporarily slowed down the pace of business expansion activities, thereby impacting the achievement of the original projections.

2.      United Hydrogen is expected to generate revenues of US$178.9M in 2025 to US$999.6M in 2028 (the “Updated Forecast Period”) with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 77%. Specifically:

1)      In terms of the hydrogen energy solutions sector, United Hydrogen anticipates assisting clients in designing and constructing a total of 20 hydrogen refueling stations (1 in 2025, 4 in 2026, 6 in 2027, and 9 in 2028), 9 hydrogen production plants (1 in 2026, 3 in 2027 and 5 in 2028) and 5 integrated hydrogen production and refueling stations (1 in 2025, 1 in 2026, 1 in 2027 and 2 in 2028) during the Updated Forecast Period. Additionally, United Hydrogen will also participate in various upgrading and renovation projects for hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen production plants. The constructed hydrogen refueling stations, hydrogen production plants and integrated stations are expected to be primarily located in China’s Hebei, Henan, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Shandong, Inner Mongolia and Ningxia provinces. The above corresponding design, construction and renovation unit prices were determined by management based on historical unit prices from similar projects, adjusted for project capacity. United Hydrogen is also expected to engage in partial hydrogen and liquefied natural gas (LNG) sales, the hydrogen sales will primarily target at ports and docks in China’s Hebei, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Jiangsu provinces and Shanghai. The LNG sales will target at provinces including Shandong, Hebei, Inner Mongolia, Ningxia and Henan in China. The unit prices of hydrogen and LNG sales were determined by management based on historical prices. Overall, the growth rates for this sector are anticipated to be 115% in 2026, 74% in 2027 and 58% in 2028.

2)      In terms of the hydrogen commercial applications sector, United Hydrogen expects to achieve sales of a total of 1,664 heavy trucks, 1,306 forklifts, and 20 hydrogen-powered cranes, and leases of 2 hydrogen-powered vessels during the Updated Forecast Period. Sales of heavy trucks, forklifts and hydrogen-powered cranes, as well as leases of hydrogen-powered vessels, will be primarily concentrated in China’s Zhejiang, Jiangsu provinces and Shanghai, focusing on applications in ports and docks as well as companies engaged in logistics and transportation. The rental or sales

153

Table of Contents

unit prices of the aforementioned equipment were determined by United Hydrogen’s management based on existing sales prices and consideration of similar product prices in the market. Overall, the growth rates for this sector are expected to be 103% in 2026, 49% in 2027 and 63% in 2028.

3)      United Hydrogen will maintain 1 giga plant in China’s Zhejiang province during the Updated Forecast Period to support the production and sales of key equipment used in the hydrogen energy industry. United Hydrogen expects to sell a total of 25 marine hydrogen storage systems, 62 hydrogen-powered crane power systems, 1,230 fuel cell systems and 244 solid-state hydrogen filling equipment sets. This forecast primarily considers demand for hydrogen-powered vessels and cranes at ports and docks. United Hydrogen is expected to expand sales of core hydrogen components and participate in environmental projects for solid and groundwater remediation in European countries, such as Italy by establishing a joint venture. Overall, United Hydrogen anticipates growth rates for this sector of 99% in 2026, 62% in 2027 and 44% in 2028.

These assumptions and estimates for the Updated Projections depend on several critical factors and contingencies, including:

        Whether there are delays in the construction of hydrogen refueling stations, hydrogen production plants, as well as integrated hydrogen production and refueling stations due to regulatory approvals, supply chain disruptions, or technical challenges.

        Whether United Hydrogen will be able to execute its growth strategies effectively and successfully, and convert sales projections into binding contracts to realize sales accordingly.

        Whether United Hydrogen can attract enough sales personnel, and the sales staff can contribute to the anticipated sales growth.

        Whether United Hydrogen can maintain sufficient personnel and suitable subcontractors to support the construction and installation of hydrogen production plants, hydrogen refueling stations, and other related projects, as well as enough production personnel to support the manufacturing of hydrogen-related equipment.

        Whether the unit price for hydrogen, LNG and hydrogen related equipment and projects can maintain stable or increasing prices while managing the impact of market competition, technological changes and customer demands.

Satisfaction of 80% Test

It is a requirement under the Aimei Health articles of association and Nasdaq rules that any business acquired by Aimei Health have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account, which were subsequently waived) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for an initial business combination. The balance of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the execution of the Business Combination Agreement with United Hydrogen was approximately $[69.7] million and 80% thereof represents approximately $[55.8] million. In determining whether the 80% requirement was met, rather than relying on any one factor, Aimei Health board of directors concluded that it was appropriate to base such valuation on all of the qualitative factors described in this section and the discussion in this proxy statement under the caption “Proposal 1” as well as quantitative factors, such as the anticipated implied equity value of the combined company being approximately $1,500 million with no material debt expected to be outstanding. Based on the qualitative and quantitative information used to approve the Business Combination described herein, the Aimei Health board of directors determined that the foregoing 80% net asset requirement was met. The Aimei Health board of directors believes that the financial skills and background of its members qualify it to conclude that the acquisition met the 80% net asset requirement.

Certain Engagements in Connection with the Business Combination and Related Transactions

The underwriters of Aimei Health’s IPO are entitled to a deferred fee of one percent (1.0%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $690,000. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of the Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

154

Table of Contents

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

None of Aimei Health’s directors and officers will enter into any employment agreement with United Hydrogen or its subsidiaries following the consummation of the Business Combination. However, in considering the recommendation of the Aimei Health board of directors to vote in favor of the Business Combination, shareholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as shareholders, the Sponsor and certain of Aimei Health’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other shareholders generally. Aimei Health’s directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, in recommending to shareholders that they approve the Business Combination and in agreeing to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination. Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things, the fact that:

        If the Business Combination with United Hydrogen or another business combination is not consummated by December 6, 2025 (i.e., 24 months from the closing of the IPO assuming that all 12 monthly extensions are exercised), Aimei Health will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding Public Shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and Aimei Health’s board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. In such event, the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, which were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 prior to the Aimei Health’s IPO (based on the closing price of Aimei Health ordinary shares on Nasdaq of $[•] per share on the Record Date, the value of the Founder Shares outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•]), are expected to be worthless because the holders are not entitled to participate in any redemption or distribution of proceeds in the Trust Account with respect to such shares. On the other hand, if the Business Combination is consummated, each outstanding Aimei Health ordinary share will be shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive One Pubco Class A Ordinary Share.

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor will be liable under certain circumstances described herein to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Aimei Health for services rendered to or, contracted for or, for products sold to, Aimei Health. If Aimei Health consummates a business combination, on the other hand, Aimei Health will be liable for all such claims.

        The Sponsor acquired the Private Placement Units for an aggregate purchase price of $3,320,000, or $10 per unit, in a transaction occurring concurrently with the closing of the Aimei Health’s IPO. Based on the closing price of the Public Units on Nasdaq of $[•] per unit on the Record Date, the value of the Private Placement Units outstanding upon the Closing would be $[•]. The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and its affiliate have not been involved in any other special purpose acquisition companies and do not hold financial interests or have contractual obligations to other entities with which Aimei Health is exploring entering into a business combination.

        As a result of the prices at which Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders acquired the Founder Shares and the Private Placement Units, and their current value, the Initial Shareholders could make a substantial profit after the completion of the Business Combination even if Aimei Health Public Shareholders lose money on their investments as a result of a decrease in the post-combination value of their Public Shares.

        The Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors and their affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on Aimei Health’s behalf, such as identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combinations. However, if Aimei Health fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, they will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement. Accordingly, Aimei Health may not be able to reimburse these expenses if the Business Combination or another business combination is not completed by December 6, 2025 (i.e., 24 months from the closing of the IPO assuming that all 12 monthly extensions are exercised). As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and Aimei Health’s officers and directors and their affiliates did not incur any unpaid reimbursable expenses.

        If Aimei Health is unable to complete a business combination within the required time period, the aggregate dollar amount of non-reimbursable funds would be approximately $0.5 million reflecting the market value of Founder Shares, the market value of Private Placement Units, and out-of-pocket unpaid reimbursable expenses.

155

Table of Contents

        Aimei Health has provisions in the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association waiving the corporate opportunities doctrine on an ongoing basis, which means that Aimei Health’s officers and directors have not been obligated and continue to not be obligated to bring all corporate opportunities to Aimei Health.

        None of Aimei Health’s officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to Aimei Health’s affairs and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating his or her time among various business activities.

        The Business Combination Agreement provides for the continued indemnification of Aimei Health’s current directors and officers and the continuation of directors and officers liability insurance covering Aimei Health’s current directors and officers.

        Aimei Health’s Sponsor, affiliates of the Sponsor, officers, and directors may, but are not obligated to, make Working Capital Loans from time to time to Aimei Health to fund certain capital requirements. Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. As of June 30, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

        The Sponsor agreed, commencing from the date that the Aimei Health’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities, and administrative services, as Aimei Health may require from time to time. Aimei Health agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months. As of June 30, 2025, the unpaid balance was $180,000, which was included in amount due to related party balance.

        On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2025, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. The deposit of the first through tenth monthly extension fee is evidenced by a Monthly Extension Promissory Note. The first and second Monthly Extension Promissory Notes are in the principal amount of $227,700 each, shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($113,850 each). The third through tenth Monthly Extension Promissory Note is in the principal amount of $150,000, also shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($75,000 each). Each Monthly Extension Promissory Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Sponsor and United Hydrogen have the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note, in whole or in part, into Private Units of Aimei Health, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, each consisting of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of Aimei Health, immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, by providing Aimei Health with written notices of their intention to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note at least two business days prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

Except for the conflicts of interest noted above, which primarily relate to the interests of officers and directors and the Sponsor, there are no conflicts of interest between the Sponsor, Aimei Health, and its officers and directors and United Hydrogen. For a description of the fiduciary obligations held by Aimei Health’s officers and directors to other entities, see “Aimei Health’s Directors and Executive Officers — Conflicts of Interest.”

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Aimei Health will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the following factors: (i) United Hydrogen’s existing operations will comprise

the ongoing operations of the combined company, (ii) United Hydrogen’s senior management will comprise the senior management of the combined company, and (iii) the former owners and management of United Hydrogen will have control of the board of directors after the Business Combination by virtue of being able to appoint a majority of the directors of the combined company.

In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Pubco issuing shares for the net assets of Aimei Health, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Aimei Health will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of United Hydrogen.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association, holders of Public Shares may elect to have their shares redeemed for cash at the applicable redemption price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest (net of taxes payable), by (ii) the total number of then-outstanding Public Shares. As of the Record Date, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $[•] million, this amounts to approximately $[•] per share.

You will be entitled to receive cash for any Public Shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i)     (a) hold Public Shares, or

(b) hold Public Shares through Units and you elect to separate your Units into the underlying public shares prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and

(ii)    prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on [•], 2025, (a) submit a written request to Continental that Aimei Health redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to Continental, physically or electronically through DTC.

Holders of outstanding Aimei Health Units must separate the underlying Aimei Health ordinary shares prior to exercising Redemption Rights with respect to the Public Shares. If the Aimei Health Units are registered in a holder’s own name, the holder must deliver the certificate for its Aimei Health Units to Continental, with written instructions to separate the Aimei Health Units into their individual component parts. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the certificates back to the holder so that the holder may then exercise his, her or its redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the Aimei Health Units.

If a holder exercises its Redemption Rights, then such holder will be exchanging its Public Shares for cash and will no longer own shares of Aimei Health. Such a holder will be entitled to receive cash for its Public Shares only if it properly demands redemption and delivers its shares (either physically or electronically) to Continental in accordance with the procedures described herein. Please see the section entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Aimei Health — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, the Aimei Health board of directors has unanimously determined that the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to and in the best interests of Aimei Health and its shareholders. In reaching its decision with respect to the Business Combination, the Aimei Health board of directors reviewed various industry and financial data and the due diligence and evaluation materials provided by United Hydrogen. The Aimei Health board of directors also obtained a valuation analysis and fairness opinion upon which to base its assessment. THE AIMEI HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS OF AIMEI HEALTH VOTE FOR THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL. Aimei Health’s directors have interests that may be different from, or in addition to your interests as a shareholder.

THE MERGER PROPOSAL

As required by the Cayman Companies Act and the Aimei Health amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, Aimei Health is asking its shareholders to approve and authorize the Second Merger and the Second Merger Plan of Merger by way of special resolution. By authorizing the Second Merger and the Second Merger Plan of Merger, Aimei Health shareholders will also authorize the replacement of the existing amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of Aimei Health (as the surviving company following the Second Merger) with the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the surviving company (the form of which is set out in Appendix II to the Second Merger Plan of Merger), which will take effect from the effective time of the Second Merger in accordance with the Second Merger Plan of Merger.

Resolution to be Voted Upon

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that, subject to the approval of the Business Combination Proposal: (i) the merger of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd (“Aimei Health”), with and into United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, with Aimei Health surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Hydrogen Global Inc. (the “Second Merger”), and the plan of merger and annexures thereto substantially in the form and substance of Annex D to the proxy statement (the “Second Merger Plan of Merger”) and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement occurring in connection with the Second Merger, be and are hereby authorized, approved, adopted and confirmed in all respects; (ii) Aimei Health be and is hereby authorized to enter into the Second Merger Plan of Merger; and (iii) as of, and contingent upon, the Effective Time (as that term is defined in the Second Plan of Merger), the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association attached to the Second Plan of Merger be adopted in substitution for, and to the exclusion of Aimei Health’s existing memorandum and articles of association.”

Vote Required

The approval of the Merger Proposal will require a special resolution, being a resolution passed by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by such shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not have an effect on the Merger Proposal.

The adoption of the Merger Proposal is conditioned upon the adoption of the Business Combination Proposal and the Share Issuance Proposal.

Recommendation of the Board

THE SHARE ISSUANCE PROPOSAL

At the Meeting, Aimei Health may ask its shareholders to vote upon and approve, for purposes of complying with applicable Nasdaq listing rules, the issuance of approximately 157,568,133 newly issued ordinary shares in the Business Combination.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) requires shareholder approval where, among other things, the issuance of securities in a transaction exceeds 20% of the number of ordinary shares of Aimei Health or the voting power outstanding before the transaction. Aimei Health currently has 6,121,733 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Reasons for the Approval for Purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635

Aimei Health is seeking shareholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), (b), and (d).

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of ordinary shares, or of securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares, in connection with the acquisition of another company if such securities are not issued in a public offering for cash and: (i) the ordinary shares have or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of such ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares); or (ii) the number of ordinary shares to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding before the issuance of the ordinary shares or securities.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities when the issuance or potential issuance will result in a “change of control” of the registrant. Although Nasdaq has not adopted any rule on what constitutes a “change of control” for purposes of Rule 5635(b), Nasdaq has previously indicated that the acquisition of, or right to acquire, by a single investor or affiliated investor group, as little as 20% of the ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares) or voting power of an issuer could constitute a change of control.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), shareholder approval is required for a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance, or potential issuance by an issuer of ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares) at a price that is less than the market value of the stock if the number of shares of ordinary shares to be issued is or may be equal to 20% or more of the ordinary shares, or 20% or more of the voting power, outstanding before the issuance.

As described above, Pubco will issue ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination, including approximately 157,568,133 newly issued ordinary shares in the Business Combination.

Effect of the Proposal on Current Shareholders

In the event that this Proposal is approved by Aimei Health shareholders, and the Business Combination is consummated, then the resulting potential issuance of all of the ordinary shares approved pursuant to this Proposal assuming, among other things, that except for 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health were redeemed in February 2025, no Public Shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares upon completion of the Business Combination, Public Shareholders, the Sponsor and other Initial Shareholders, and the Sellers, will own approximately 2.54%, 1.30%, and 95.20%, of the outstanding shares of Pubco, respectively, such percentages calculated assuming that the Sellers receive approximately 150,000,000 Ordinary Shares of Pubco, derived from the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements (after rounding adjustment).

In the event that this Proposal is approved by Aimei Health shareholders, but the Business Combination Agreement is terminated (without the Business Combination being consummated) prior to the issuance of ordinary shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Pubco will not issue such shares.

Table of Contents

Required Vote and Recommendation of the Board

The approval of the Share Issuance Proposal will require an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy on the proposal at the Meeting where a quorum exists. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not have an effect on the Share Issuance Proposal. The Share Issuance Proposal will not be submitted if the Business Combination Proposal or the Merger Proposal is not approved and will also not be submitted unless required under Nasdaq rules.

Resolution to be Voted Upon

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the issuance of up to 157,568,133 ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination be approved and adopted in all respects.”

THE AIMEI HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT AIMEI HEALTH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE SHARE ISSUANCE PROPOSAL.

THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

The Adjournment Proposal allows Aimei Health’s board of directors to submit a proposal to direct the chairman of the Meeting to adjourn the Meeting to a later date or dates, if Aimei Health deems it necessary or appropriate, including, if necessary, (i) to permit further solicitation of proxies in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Meeting to approve the Business Combination Proposal or the Merger Proposal, (ii) to allow reasonable additional time for filing or mailing of any legally required supplement or amendment to this proxy statement/prospectus; or (iii) if the holders of Public Shares have elected to redeem an amount of shares such that the Pubco Ordinary Shares would not be approved for listing on a U.S. stock exchange. In no event will Aimei Health solicit proxies to adjourn the Meeting or consummate the Business Combination beyond the date by which it may properly do so under its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and Cayman Islands law. The purpose of the Adjournment Proposal is to provide additional time, if necessary, for the Aimei Health Initial Shareholders, United Hydrogen, and the Sellers to make purchases of Public Shares or other arrangements that would increase the likelihood of obtaining a favorable vote on the Business Combination Proposal and to meet the requirements that are necessary to consummate the Business Combination. See the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

Consequences if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved

If an adjournment proposal is presented to the Meeting and is not approved by the shareholders, the chairman of the Meeting will still have the power, under Aimei Health’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, to adjourn the Meeting (with the consent of the shareholders constituting a quorum, or if so directed by the Meeting).

Required Vote and Recommendation of the Board

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal will require an ordinary resolution, being a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast by the Aimei Health shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy on the proposal at the Meeting where a quorum exists. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not have an effect on the Adjournment Proposal. Adoption of the Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the adoption of any of the other proposals.

Resolution to be Voted Upon

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the adjournment of the Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or convenient, (i) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies for the purpose of obtaining approval of the Business Combination Proposal or the Merger Proposal, (ii) to allow reasonable additional time for filing or mailing of any legally required supplement or amendment to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus or (iii) if the holders of the Public Shares have elected to redeem such number of shares such that the Pubco Ordinary Shares would not be approved for listing on a U.S. stock exchange be authorized, approved and confirmed in all respects.”

THE AIMEI HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT AIMEI HEALTH SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been prepared using the following:

        United Hydrogen’s historical audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 and the related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus; and

        Aimei Health’s historical audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 and the related notes as included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 has been prepared using the following:

        United Hydrogen’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus; and

        Aimei Health’s historical audited statement of operation for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the period from April 27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, and the related notes included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Description of the Transactions

On June 19, 2024, Aimei Health entered into the Business Combination Agreement with the Purchaser Representative, Pubco, the First Merger Sub, the Second Merger Sub, and United Hydrogen. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, at the Closing, (i) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen, with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (ii) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Aimei Health, with Aimei Health surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco.

As a result of the Mergers, (i) each of the ordinary shares of United Hydrogen that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, except for the United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Shares and the United Hydrogen Dissenting Shares, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement;

163

Table of Contents

(ii) each United Hydrogen Specially Designated Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the number of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio; (iii) each convertible note of United Hydrogen that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, will be converted into such number of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen pursuant to the terms thereof, which resulting shares will be converted into the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares based on the Exchange Ratio; (iv) at the Effective Time, each Aimei Health Unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective time shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one Aimei Health Ordinary Share and one Aimei Health Right; (v) at the Effective Time, each unredeemed outstanding Aimei Health Ordinary Share shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share; and (vi) at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding Aimei Health Rights shall be cancelled and automatically converted into one-fifth of one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share. The implied total equity value for the combined entity following consummation of the Business Combination is $1,500,000,000.

Accounting for the Transactions

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Aimei Health will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of United Hydrogen expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, United Hydrogen Senior Management comprising substantially all of the Senior Management of the post-combination company, the relative size of United Hydrogen compared to Aimei Health, and United Hydrogen operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Pubco issuing stock for the net assets of Aimei Health, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Aimei Health will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of United Hydrogen.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Business Combination, are factually supportable, and as it relates to the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations, are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the post-combination company. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the post-combination company upon consummation of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical financial position and results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future financial position and results that the post-combination company will experience. United Hydrogen and Aimei Health have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

There is no historical activity with respect to Pubco, First Merger Sub, and Second Merger Sub, and accordingly, no adjustments were required with respect to these entities in the pro forma combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared assuming various alternative levels of redemption into cash of Aimei Health ordinary shares:

        Scenario 1 — Assuming No Redemptions: This scenario assumes the shareholders of Aimei Health do not exercise their redemption rights, except for 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health redeemed in February 2025, Aimei Health ordinary shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to approximately $43.9 million would be transferred to shareholders’ equity; and

164

Table of Contents

        Scenario 2 — Assuming Maximum Contractual Redemptions: This scenario assumes that 6,628,483 ordinary shares of Aimei Health subject to redemption are redeemed, including 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health redeemed in February 2025, for an aggregate payment of approximately $72.2 million, which is the maximum permitted amount of redemptions while the cash balance was decreased to nil and still allowing Aimei Health to have standalone and consolidated net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. In the event cash available at closing is insufficient to meet the net tangible assets requirement, a condition to closing would not be met and the Business Combination may not be consummated.

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements are approximately 150,000,000 Pubco Ordinary Shares, consisting of 59,191,112.50 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and 90,808,887.50 Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, to be issued to the shareholders of United Hydrogen, based on the price of $10.00 per share.

The pro forma combined financial statements do not take into consideration of the Pubco Ordinary Shares to be issued in connection with the PIPE Investments. Neither United Hydrogen nor Aimei Health expects to consummate any PIPE Investment prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Upon the completion of the Business Combination, assuming, among other things, that the shareholders of Aimei Health do not exercise redemption rights, public shareholders of Aimei Health, the Sponsor and other Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders, and the shareholders of United Hydrogen will own approximately 2.54%, 1.30% and 95.20% of the outstanding shares of Pubco, respectively, with such percentages calculated assuming that the shareholders of United Hydrogen and their affiliates receive approximately 150,000,000 Pubco Ordinary Shares, derived from the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements.

If 6,628,483 of Aimei Health ordinary shares are redeemed, public shareholders of Aimei Health, the Sponsor and other Aimei Health’s Initial Shareholders and the shareholders of United Hydrogen are expected to own approximately 0.12%, 1.34% and 97.60%, respectively, of the Pubco Ordinary Shares. As such, the shareholders of Aimei Health who do not redeem their Aimei Health ordinary shares will experience immediate and material dilution following the consummation of the Business Combination.

The following table provides a pro forma summary of the Pubco Ordinary Shares that would be outstanding under each of the redemption scenarios if the Business Combination had occurred on December 31, 2024.

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments

The pro forma adjustment to the unaudited combined pro forma balance sheet consists of the following:

A.     Derived from the audited balance sheet of Aimei Health as of December 31, 2024.

B.      Derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of United Hydrogen as of December 31, 2024.

a.      Reflects (i) redemption of 2,904,267 Public Shares of Aimei Health in February 2025 for approximately $31.3 million, (ii) recognition of interest income of approximately $0.5 million, (iii) recognition of extension deposits of approximately $0.8 million and (iv) the release of cash of approximately $43.9 million from cash and investment held in the Trust Account.

b.      Reflects the conversion of Aimei Health ordinary shares into Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

c.      In Scenario 1, which assumes that except for 2,904,267 Aimei Health ordinary shares redeemed in February 2025, no shareholders of Aimei Health exercise their redemption rights, the Aimei Health ordinary shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to approximately $43.9 million would be transferred to shareholders’ equity.

In Scenario 2, which assumes the same facts as described in Scenario 1 above, but also assumes that the maximum number of Aimei Health ordinary shares at 6,628,483 are redeemed, including 2,904,267 Aimei Health ordinary shares redeemed in February 2025, for cash by the shareholders of Aimei Health, cash required at approximately $72.2 million would be paid out in cash.

d.      Reflects the settlement of $690,000 of deferred underwriting commission incurred during the Aimei Health’s IPO due upon completion of the Business Combination.

e.      Reflects (i) estimated cash payments of professional expenses of approximately $1.4 million related to the Business Combination, all of which was deducted against additional paid-in capital. The cash payments of professional expenses of approximately $1.4 million related to the Business Combination was comprised of $0.6 million incurred by AJFK and $0.8 million incurred by United Hydrogen, respectively. The professional expenses were comprised of legal expenses, financial advisory expenses, fairness opinion expenses and other service fees.

f.       Reflects recapitalization of United Hydrogen through issuance of Pubco Ordinary Shares (including upon conversion of Aimei Health Rights) and eliminates Aimei Health’s historical accumulated earnings.

g.      Reflects the payments of declared dividends to shareholders.

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations Adjustments

The notes and pro forma adjustments to the unaudited condensed combined pro forma statements of operations consist of the following:

A.     Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was derived from Aimei Health’s audited statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

B.      Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was derived from United Hydrogen’s consolidated audited statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2024.

a)      Represents an adjustment to eliminate interest income related to cash and investment held in Trust Account.

b)      Reflects accrual of professional expenses incurred by Aimei Health.

c)      The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income per share assumes that the initial public offering occurred as of the earliest period presented. In addition, as the Business Combination are being reflected as if it had occurred on this date, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares have been outstanding for the entire period presented. This calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the number of shares redeemed in the Business Combination for the entire period.

The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2024, assuming no redemption into cash, is set forth in below table:

USE OF PROCEEDS

Based on the Trust Account balance as of the Record Date, United Hydrogen estimates at least $[•] million (assuming no redemptions) and [    ] (assuming maximum contractual redemptions of the Public Shares) will be made available to it as a result of the Business Combination, after payment of transaction expenses. The total amount received will depend on, among other things, the total number of Aimei Health’s Public Shares to be redeemed as discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus under “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Aimei Health — Redemption Rights.” The Trust Account balance is expected to be used to pay (i) the Deferred Underwriting Commission of $690,000, (ii) any unpaid Extension Fees payable by United Hydrogen pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (iii) United Hydrogen’s unpaid Expenses, and (iv) the premium payment for the D&O tail insurance and the premium payment for the directors and officers of Pubco for one year after the Closing, which could further reduce the amount available to United Hydrogen. In the event that the Trust Account balance is insufficient for this payment, United Hydrogen will be obligated to cover these expenses from its own funds in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement. If net proceeds are available, United Hydrogen expects to use a substantial portion of the funds it will receive from the Business Combination for general corporate purposes, including (i) signing and retaining new clients, (ii) completing ongoing refueling station projects, (iii) further investing in technology research and development and equipment updates, and (iii) funding working capital and other general corporate purposes. United Hydrogen also expects to use transaction proceeds for the payment of expenses related to the Business Combination. United Hydrogen management will have broad discretion in applying the proceeds and may reallocate the proceeds as it deems necessary or advisable, regardless of the extent of redemptions in connection with the Business Combination, if any. The amounts expended for each purpose may vary significantly from the specific allocation described herein, depending on numerous factors, including cash flow from operations, anticipated growth of the business, sales and market needs, acquisition opportunities, and changing economic or regulatory conditions. To the extent that the amount of cash available to United Hydrogen upon the Closing is significantly reduced due to the level of redemptions from the Trust Account, United Hydrogen may not have enough cash available to it to use for the purposes identified above. If United Hydrogen determines that its available resources were insufficient to carry out one or more of the objectives described above, it would assess the availability of equity and/or debt financing and the advisability of pursuing such options. If necessary, United Hydrogen may need to postpone or reduce one or more of its currently anticipated plans.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a brief summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of (i) the Business Combination generally applicable to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of Aimei Health ordinary shares and Aimei Health Rights (together, “Aimei Health Securities”) and U.S. Holders of ordinary shares of United Hydrogen (“United Hydrogen Shares”), (ii) the subsequent ownership and disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received by such holders in the Business Combination and (iii) the exercise of redemption rights by U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities. The following discussion, to the extent it sets forth U.S federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities, is opined to by Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC, as described below and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations herein and in the opinion to be included as Exhibit 8.1 hereto, including, but not limited to:

        the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of the Business Combination Agreement and other documents, certificates, and records submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic, or electronic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such documents;

        that the statements, representations, warranties, and covenants of officers and other representatives of Aimei Health and United Hydrogen are, and will continue to be, true, correct, and complete through the Effective Time; and

        that the transactions contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement will be consummated in the manner described in the agreement, will be effective under applicable laws, and that none of the terms or conditions contained therein will be waived or modified, and that the Business Combination Agreement and this proxy statement/prospectus accurately completely reflect the facts relating to such transactions.

In the opinion of Hunter Taubman Fischer & Li LLC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the exchange of Aimei Health ordinary shares for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination will qualify as part of an exchange governed by Section 351(a) of the Code (described below).

The summary below is limited to U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to U.S. Holders that hold Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares, as applicable, and, after the completion of the Business Combination, will hold Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders in light of their individual circumstances or status, including:

        our Sponsor or any member or affiliate thereof;

        banks or financial institutions;

        dealers or electing traders in securities that are subject to mark-to-market tax accounting rules;

        tax-exempt entities (including private foundations);

        insurance companies;

        regulated investment companies;

        real estate investment trusts;

        pension plans;

        cooperatives;

        government organizations;

        certain expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

        persons that acquired Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares as compensation;

        persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more of the shares of Aimei Health or United Hydrogen or, following the Business Combination, Pubco, by vote or value;

172

Table of Contents

        persons that hold Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares, or will hold Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, in connection with a trade or business, permanent establishment, or fixed place of business conducted outside the United States;

        persons that hold Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares or will hold Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, as part of a straddle, constructive sale, hedging, conversion or other integrated or similar transaction;

        persons that will hold Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares; or

        U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

If a partnership (or any entity so characterized for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, the tax treatment of such partnership and its partners will generally depend on the status of the partners and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding any Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and their partners should consult their tax advisers as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination, ownership and disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, or the exercise of redemption rights with respect to the Aimei Health Securities.

This discussion is based on the Code, proposed, temporary and final Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code, and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof, all as of the date hereof. All of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax considerations described herein. This discussion does not address alternative minimum or Medicare contribution tax considerations, the special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code or U.S. federal taxes other than those pertaining to U.S. federal income taxation (such as estate or gift taxes), nor does it address any aspects of U.S. state, local or non-U.S. taxation.

We have not and do not intend to seek any ruling from the IRS regarding any aspect of the Business Combination or the exercise of redemption rights. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions that are inconsistent with those discussed below or that any such positions could not be sustained by a court.

As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a person that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a beneficial owner of Aimei Health Securities, United Hydrogen Shares, as applicable or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received pursuant to the Business Combination and is:

        an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

        a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state therein or the District of Columbia; or

        an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION. HOLDERS OF AIMEI HEALTH SECURITIES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISERS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF PUBCO CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES AFTER THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, OR THE REDEMPTION OF THEIR AIMEI HEALTH SECURITIES OR UNITED HYDROGEN SHARES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS.

Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities

Subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set forth in this section entitled “— Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities,” the following are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities. As used in this section entitled “— Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities,” the term “U.S. Holder” means a U.S. Holder of Aimei Health Securities.

Separation of an Aimei Health Unit

No statutory, administrative or judicial authority directly addresses the treatment of an instrument such as a Unit for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, therefore, that treatment is not entirely clear. The separation of the Aimei Health ordinary share and Aimei Health Right comprising an Aimei Health Unit is not expected to be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, because there are no authorities that directly address instruments that are similar to the Aimei Health Units, no assurance can be given that the IRS or a court will agree with the characterization described herein. The rest of this discussion assumes that the separation of the Aimei Health ordinary share and Aimei Health Right comprising an Aimei Health Unit is not a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Intended Tax Treatment of the Business Combination

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement intend that the Mergers will qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code.

The provisions of Section 351(a) of the Code are complex, and qualification as a non-recognition transaction thereunder could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur following the Business Combination that are beyond Aimei Health or Pubco’s control. For example, if more than 20% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Mergers were subject to an arrangement or agreement to be sold or disposed of at the time of their issuance in the Business Combination, one of the requirements for Section 351(a) treatment would be violated. However, we do not expect that any of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issued in the Business Combination will be subject to an arrangement or agreement by its owner to sell or dispose of such shares upon the issuance of those shares in the Business Combination.

In addition, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement intend to treat the Second Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and to adopt the Business Combination Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Accordingly, in addition to qualifying as an exchange described in Section 351(a) of the Code, the Business Combination may also qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). There are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Business Combination to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368 of the Code, some of which are based upon factual determinations and others that are fundamental to corporate reorganizations. For example, it is unclear as a matter of law whether an entity that may not have a historic business, such as Aimei Health, can satisfy the “continuity of business enterprise” requirement under Section 368 of the Code. In addition, reorganization treatment could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur prior to or at the time of the Business Combination, some of which are outside the control of Aimei Health. For example, the requirements for reorganization treatment could be affected by the magnitude of Aimei Health Securities redemptions that occur in connection with the Business Combination.

If the Business Combination qualifies as a transaction governed by Section 351(a) of the Code and as a “reorganization” governed by Section 368(a) of the Code, and subject to the discussion below regarding Aimei Health Securities and the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules,” a U.S. Holder that exchanges its Aimei Health Securities in the Business Combination for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares generally should not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange. In such case, the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination by a U.S. Holder should be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the Aimei Health Securities surrendered in the Business Combination in exchange therefor. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the exchange should include the holding period for the Aimei Health Securities surrendered in the exchange.

If the Business Combination fails to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment, the Business Combination will be a fully taxable transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes. In that case, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its Aimei Health Securities for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares under the Business Combination will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the fair market value of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Aimei Health Securities exchanged. A U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received will be their fair market value on the date the U.S. Holder receives them. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received pursuant to the Business Combination will begin on the day after the date the U.S. Holder receives such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Aimei

174

Table of Contents

Health Securities exceeds one year at the time of the Business Combination. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, currently are subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the Aimei Health ordinary shares have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Additionally, if U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Rights were to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as receiving Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in discharge of Aimei Health’s obligations under the Aimei Health Rights (instead of as receiving such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in exchange for transferring the Aimei Health Rights to Pubco), the Business Combination would generally be a fully taxable transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes with respect to the Aimei Health Rights. Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Aimei Health Rights, there can be no assurance on the characterization of the Aimei Health Rights that would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Rights are urged to consult with their tax advisors regarding the treatment of their Aimei Health Rights in connection with the Business Combination.

The completion of the Business Combination is not conditioned on the Business Combination qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment, nor upon the receipt of an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS to that effect. No party to the Business Combination Agreement has requested an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Business Combination. Accordingly, even if the parties to the Business Combination Agreement conclude that the Business Combination qualifies for the Intended Tax Treatment, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge that conclusion or that a court would not sustain such a challenge.

No party to the Business Combination Agreement, nor any of their respective advisors or affiliates, makes any representations or provides any assurances regarding the tax consequences of the Business Combination, including whether the Business Combination qualifies for the Intended Tax Treatment. Each U.S. Holder is urged to consult its tax advisors with respect to the qualification of the Business Combination for the Intended Tax Treatment and the tax consequences to them if the Business Combination does not so qualify. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the Business Combination qualifies for the Intended Tax Treatment.

Application of the Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules to the Business Combination

Based upon the composition of its income and assets, as discussed below, Aimei Health believes that it would likely be considered a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for its current taxable year that ends as a result of the Business Combination.

Section 1291(f) of the Code requires that, to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations, a U.S. person who disposes of stock of a PFIC recognizes gain notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. The proposed final Treasury Regulations are not currently in effect under Section 1291(f) of the Code. However, if the proposed final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code if promulgated will have a retroactive effective date. If finalized in their current form, those proposed Treasury Regulations may require gain recognition (but not loss recognition) to U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities in connection with the Business Combination if:

(1)    Aimei Health were classified as a PFIC at any time during such U.S. holder’s holding period for such Aimei Health Securities; and

(2)    the U.S. holder had not timely made, effective from the first taxable year of its holding period of Aimei Health Securities during which Aimei Health qualified as a PFIC: (a) a valid election to treat Aimei Health as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code (a “QEF election”), or (b) a valid “mark-to-market election” under Section 1296 of the Code, with respect to such Aimei Health Securities.

The tax on any such recognized gain would be imposed based on the “excess distribution” rules, discussed below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules.” However, if Pubco is a PFIC, then the same proposed regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code would not require U.S. holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares who exchange their Aimei Health ordinary shares for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares to recognize any gain.

It is difficult to predict whether, in what form and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code will be adopted. Additionally, the treatment of U.S. holders of Aimei Health Securities who exchange their Aimei Health ordinary shares for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be materially different from that described above if Pubco is treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes (see discussion below

175

Table of Contents

under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules”). Therefore, U.S. Holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares that have not made a timely QEF election or a mark-to-market election, pursuant to the proposed Treasury Regulations, may be subject to taxation under the PFIC rules on the Business Combination to the extent their Aimei Health ordinary shares have a fair market value in excess of their tax basis therein.

THE RULES DEALING WITH PFICS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION ARE VERY COMPLEX AND ARE IMPACTED BY VARIOUS FACTORS. ALL U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PFIC RULES, AND WHETHER A QEF ELECTION, A MARK-TO-MARKET ELECTION OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ANY SUCH ELECTION, AND THE IMPACT OF ANY PROPOSED OR FINAL PFIC TREASURY REGULATIONS.

Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of United Hydrogen Shares

Subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set forth in this section entitled “— Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of United Hydrogen Shares,” the following are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of United Hydrogen Shares. As used in this section entitled “— Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of United Hydrogen Shares,” the term “U.S. Holder” means a U.S. Holder of United Hydrogen Shares.

Intended Tax Treatment of the Business Combination

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement intend that the Mergers will qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code.

The provisions of Section 351(a) of the Code are complex, and qualification as a non-recognition transaction thereunder could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur following the Business Combination that are beyond United Hydrogen or Pubco’s control. For example, if more than 20% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Mergers were subject to an arrangement or agreement to be sold or disposed of at the time of their issuance in the Business Combination, one of the requirements for Section 351(a) treatment would be violated. However, we do not expect that any of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issued in the Business Combination will be subject to an arrangement or agreement by its owner to sell or dispose of such shares upon the issuance of those shares in the Business Combination.

In addition, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement intend to treat the First Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and to adopt the Business Combination Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Accordingly, in addition to qualifying as an exchange described in Section 351(a) of the Code, the Business Combination may also qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code (the “UH Intended Tax Treatment”). There are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Business Combination to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368 of the Code, some of which are based upon factual determinations and others that are fundamental to corporate reorganizations. If any of the determinations are incorrect, incomplete, or inaccurate, the tax consequences of the Business Combination could differ from those described herein.

If the Business Combination qualifies as a transaction governed by Section 351(a) of the Code and as a “reorganization” governed by Section 368(a) of the Code, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its United Hydrogen Shares in the Business Combination for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares generally should not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange. In such case, the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination by a U.S. Holder should be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the United Hydrogen Shares surrendered in the Business Combination in exchange therefor. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in the exchange should include the holding period for the United Hydrogen Shares surrendered in the exchange.

If the Business Combination fails to qualify for the UH Intended Tax Treatment, the Business Combination will be a fully taxable transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes. In that case, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its United Hydrogen Shares for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares under the Business Combination will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the fair market value of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the United Hydrogen Shares exchanged. A U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received will be their fair market value on the date the U.S. Holder receives them. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received pursuant to the Business

176

Table of Contents

Combination will begin on the day after the date the U.S. Holder receives such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the United Hydrogen Shares exceeds one year at the time of the Business Combination. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, currently are subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

The completion of the Business Combination is not conditioned on the Business Combination qualifying for the UH Intended Tax Treatment, nor upon the receipt of an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS to that effect. No party to the Business Combination Agreement has requested an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Business Combination. Accordingly, even if the parties to the Business Combination Agreement conclude that the Business Combination qualifies for the UH Intended Tax Treatment, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge that conclusion or that a court would not sustain such a challenge.

No party to the Business Combination Agreement, nor any of their respective advisors or affiliates, makes any representations or provides any assurances regarding the tax consequences of the Business Combination, including whether the Business Combination qualifies for the UH Intended Tax Treatment. Each U.S. Holder is urged to consult its tax advisors with respect to the qualification of the Business Combination for the UH Intended Tax Treatment and the tax consequences to them if the Business Combination does not so qualify, including whether the PFIC rules could apply to the transfer of their United Hydrogen Shares pursuant to the Business Combination.

Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares

Taxation of Distributions

Subject to the Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) rules discussed below, the gross amount of distributions made by us to you with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares (including the amount of any taxes withheld therefrom) will generally be includable in your gross income as dividend income on the date of receipt by you, but only to the extent that the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). With respect to corporate U.S. Holders, the dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations.

With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individual U.S. Holders, dividends will be taxed at the lower capital gains rate applicable to qualified dividend income, provided that (1) the Class A Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, or we are eligible for the benefits of an approved qualifying income tax treaty with the United States that includes an exchange of information program, (2) we are not a PFIC for either our taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year, and (3) certain holding period requirements are met. Because there is no income tax treaty between the United States and the Cayman Islands, clause (1) above can be satisfied only if the Class A Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Service authority, Class A Ordinary Shares are considered for purpose of clause (1) above to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on certain exchanges, which presently include the Nasdaq Stock Market. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for dividends paid with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares, including the effects of any change in law after the date of this prospectus.

Dividends will constitute foreign source income for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. If the dividends are taxed as qualified dividend income (as discussed above), the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced rate divided by the highest rate of tax normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by us with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares will constitute “passive category income” but could, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, constitute “general category income.”

To the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), it will be treated first as a tax-free return of your tax basis in your Class A Ordinary Shares, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds your tax basis, the excess will

177

Table of Contents

be taxed as capital gain. We do not intend to calculate our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, a U.S. Holder should expect that a distribution will be treated as a dividend even if that distribution would otherwise be treated as a non-taxable return of capital or as capital gain under the rules described above.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares

The following discussion is subject to the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules.”

A U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, each determined in U.S. dollars. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares exceeds one year. Long-term capital gain realized by a non-corporate U.S. Holder is currently eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deduction of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

Consequences of a Redemption of Aimei Health Securities

The following discussion is subject to the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules.”

In the event that a U.S. Holder’s Aimei Health ordinary shares and Rights (both, Securities) are redeemed pursuant to the redemption provisions described in this proxy statement/prospectus under “Extraordinary General Meeting of Aimei Health Shareholders — Redemption Rights,” the treatment of the redemption for U.S. federal income tax purposes will generally depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale of the Aimei Health ordinary shares under Section 302 of the Code (in which case such redemption would be treated as described above under the heading “— Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares”) or rather as a distribution, in which case such redemption would be treated as described in “— Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares — Taxation of Distributions” (except that the preferential rate for qualified dividend income will not apply).

Generally, whether a redemption qualifies for sale treatment will depend largely on the total number of Aimei Health ordinary shares treated as held by the U.S. Holder (including any shares constructively owned by the U.S. Holder described in the following paragraph) relative to all Aimei Health ordinary shares outstanding both before and after such redemption (and treating Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares as Aimei Health ordinary shares for this purpose). The redemption of Aimei Health ordinary shares generally will be treated as a sale of the Aimei Health ordinary shares (rather than as a corporate distribution) if such redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the U.S. Holder’s interest in us or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder generally takes into account not only Aimei Health ordinary shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also any Aimei Health ordinary shares that are constructively owned by such U.S. Holder. A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to shares owned directly, shares owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder, as well as any shares the U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, such as the Aimei Health Rights. In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of our outstanding voting shares (including the Aimei Health ordinary shares and the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received in exchange therefor) actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately following the redemption of Aimei Health ordinary shares must, among other requirements, be less than 80% of the percentage of our outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately before the redemption. Before the Business Combination, the Aimei Health ordinary shares may not be treated as voting shares for this purpose and, consequently, this substantially disproportionate test may not be applicable. There will be a complete termination of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all Aimei Health ordinary shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all Aimei Health ordinary shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed and the U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of shares owned by certain family members and the U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other shares of ours. The redemption of the Aimei Health ordinary shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend with respect to a U.S. Holder if it results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in Aimei Health. Whether the redemption will

178

Table of Contents

result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in us will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. The IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”

If none of the foregoing tests are satisfied, then the redemption will be treated as a corporate distribution and taxed in the manner described above under “— Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares — Taxation of Distributions” (except that the preferential rate for qualified dividend income will not apply). After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. Holder in the redeemed Aimei Health Securities will be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining shares, or, if it has none, to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in other shares constructively owned by such U.S. Holder.

Any income or gain recognized with respect to the redemption of Aimei Health Securities will be subject to the PFIC rules described below.

U.S. HOLDERS OF AIMEI HEALTH SECURITIES CONTEMPLATING THE EXERCISE OF THEIR REDEMPTION RIGHTS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISERS CONCERNING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES THEREOF.

Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Rules

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Securities and Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares could be (and generally will be, in the case of U.S. Holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares) materially different from that described above due to the application of the PFIC rules.

In general, a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year in which (i) 50% or more of the value of its assets (generally determined on the basis of a weighted quarterly average) consists of assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income, or (ii) 75% or more of its gross income consists of passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, investment gains, net gains from the sales of property that does not give rise to any income and net gains from the sale of commodities (subject to certain exceptions, such as an exception for certain income derived in the active conduct of a trade or business). Cash and cash equivalents are passive assets. The value of goodwill will generally be treated as an active or passive asset based on the nature of the income produced in the activity to which the goodwill is attributable. For purposes of the PFIC rules, a non-U.S. corporation that owns, directly or indirectly, at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation is treated as if it held its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and received directly its proportionate share of the income of the other corporation.

Pursuant to the start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (1) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC, (2) it is established to the satisfaction of the IRS that the corporation will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year, and (3) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those years (the “start-up exception”). Aimei Health believes that it did not qualify for the start-up exception for its taxable year ended December 31, 2021. Therefore, because Aimei Health is a blank-check company with no current active business, based on the composition of Aimei Health’s income and assets, Aimei Health believes that it was a PFIC for its taxable years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Depending on the closing date of the Business Combination and the composition of Pubco’s income and assets and the estimated value of Pubco’s assets, including goodwill, Pubco may be a PFIC for its taxable year ending December 31, 2024. Pubco’s PFIC status for any taxable year is a factual annual determination that can be made only after the end of that year and will depend on the composition of Pubco’s income and assets and the value of its assets from time to time (including the value of its goodwill, which may be determined in large part by reference to the market price of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares from time to time, which could be volatile) and, for the taxable year in which the Business Combination occurs, the income and assets, and the value of the assets, of its predecessor Aimei Health. In addition, the risk of Pubco being a PFIC for any taxable year will increase if its market capitalization declines substantially during that year. Furthermore, whether and to which extent Pubco’s income and assets, including goodwill, will be characterized as active or passive will depend on various factors that are subject to uncertainty, including Pubco’s future business plan and the application of laws that are subject to varying interpretation. For example, there is no authority that directly addresses the proper treatment of certain items of Pubco’s income, such as income from provision of hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications for purposes of the PFIC

179

Table of Contents

rules and, although Pubco currently treats these items of income as active, such treatment is uncertain. Moreover, certain of Pubco’s business activities generate passive income and, although the amount of such income is currently small, Pubco’s risk of being a PFIC will increase if the proportion of Pubco’s revenue earned from such business activities increases in future taxable years. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that Pubco will not be a PFIC for its current or any future taxable year.

In addition, any income or gain recognized by a U.S. Holder electing to have its Aimei Health ordinary shares redeemed, as described above under the heading “— Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares — Consequences of a Redemption of Aimei Health Ordinary Shares,” would generally be subject to a special tax and interest charge if such U.S. Holder did not make a qualified electing fund (“QEF”) election for Aimei Health’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which such U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) such shares, a QEF election along with an applicable purging election, or a mark-to-market election (collectively, the “PFIC Elections”).

If Pubco is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and any entity in which it owns equity interests is also a PFIC (a “Lower-tier PFIC”), the U.S. Holder will be deemed to own their proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of each Lower-tier PFIC and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax according to the rules described above on (i) certain distributions by a Lower-tier PFIC and (ii) dispositions of shares of Lower-tier PFICs, in each case as if the U.S. Holders held such shares directly, even though the U.S. Holders will not receive any proceeds of those distributions or dispositions.

If Pubco (or Aimei Health, with respect to U.S. Holders who hold Aimei Health Securities prior to the Mergers) is a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition (including certain pledges) of its Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or disposition and to any year before Pubco became a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year will be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as applicable, for that taxable year, and an interest charge will be imposed on the resulting tax liability for each such year. Furthermore, to the extent that distributions received by a U.S. Holder in any taxable year on its Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares exceed 125% of the average of the annual distributions on the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received during the preceding three taxable years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter, the excess distributions will be subject to taxation in the same manner.

In general, a U.S. Holder of Aimei Health ordinary shares may avoid the adverse PFIC tax consequences described above in respect of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares if it has made and maintains a timely and valid QEF election to include in income its pro rata share of Aimei Health’s (and its successor Pubco’s) net capital gains (as long-term capital gains) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case, whether or not distributed, in the taxable year of the U.S. Holder in which or with which Aimei Health’s (or its successor Pubco’s) taxable year ends. In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. Holder must receive a PFIC Annual Information Statement from Aimei Health or Pubco, as the case may be. In the event that Pubco determines that it is a PFIC, Aimei Health will endeavor to make available to U.S. Holders sufficient information to make a timely QEF election with respect to Pubco.

It is unclear whether a U.S. Holder of Aimei Health Rights is entitled to make a QEF election with respect to the Aimei Health Rights. Under proposed Treasury regulations, for purposes of the PFIC rules, the holding period of Aimei Health ordinary shares received with respect to Aimei Health Rights (and the holding period of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares received with respect thereto) could include the holding period for the Rights. Therefore, assuming a QEF election is not available with respect to the Aimei Health Rights, a U.S. Holder of Aimei Health Rights may be subject to the general PFIC rules described in the preceding paragraph with respect to the shares underlying the Aimei Health Rights, even if the U.S. Holder made a QEF election with respect to its other Aimei Health ordinary shares, unless a purging election is made. U.S. Holders of Aimei Health Rights should consult their tax advisers regarding whether and how the PFIC rules apply to their Aimei Health Rights or the underlying Aimei Health ordinary shares.

Alternatively, if a U.S. Holder owns shares in a company that is a PFIC and the shares are “regularly traded” on a “qualified exchange,” such U.S. Holder could make a mark-to-market election that would result in tax treatment different from the general tax treatment for PFICs described above. The Aimei Health ordinary shares and Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be treated as regularly traded for any calendar year in which more than a de minimis quantity of the Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, as applicable, are traded on a qualified exchange on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. Nasdaq, where the Aimei Health ordinary shares are listed and the Pubco Class A Ordinary

180

Table of Contents

Shares are expected to be listed, is a qualified exchange for this purpose. If a U.S. Holder makes (or has made) the mark-to-market election for the first taxable year of Aimei Health or Pubco in which it is or was treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder, the U.S. Holder generally will recognize as ordinary income any excess of the fair market value of the Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares (as applicable) at the end of each taxable year over their adjusted tax basis, and will recognize an ordinary loss in respect of any excess of the adjusted tax basis of the Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares (as applicable) over their fair market value at the end of the taxable year, but only to the extent of the net amount of income previously included as a result of the mark-to-market election. If a U.S. Holder makes the mark-to-market election, the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be adjusted to reflect the income or loss amounts recognized. Any gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in a year in which Pubco is a PFIC will be treated as ordinary income and any loss will be treated as an ordinary loss (but only to the extent of the net amount of income previously included as a result of the mark-to-market election, with any excess treated as capital loss). If a U.S. Holder makes the mark-to-market election, distributions paid on Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares will be treated as discussed under “— Taxation of Distributions” above. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the availability and advisability of making a mark-to-market election in their particular circumstances. U.S. Holders should note that there is no provision in the Code, Treasury regulations or other official IRS guidance that would give them the right to make a mark-to-market election with respect to any Lower-tier PFIC, the shares of which are not regularly traded, and, therefore, the general rules applicable to ownership of a PFIC described above could continue to apply to a U.S. Holder with respect to any Lower-tier PFIC of Pubco, even if the U.S. Holder made a mark-to-market election with respect to the Aimei Health ordinary shares or Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

If Pubco is (or is treated with respect to a particular U.S. Holder as) a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns any Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, subject to certain limited exceptions set forth in applicable Treasury regulations, the U.S. Holder will be required to file IRS Form 8621 with the IRS with respect to Pubco and any Lower-tier PFIC. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the effect of whether Pubco is a PFIC for any taxable year and the potential application of the PFIC rules to their ownership of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

U.S. Holders that exchange their Aimei Health Securities or United Hydrogen Shares for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination are required to retain permanent records pertaining to the Business Combination and make such records available to any authorized IRS officers and employees. Additionally, such U.S. Holders that, immediately before the completion of the Business Combination, own at least 1% (by vote or value) of Aimei Health capital stock or securities, United Hydrogen capital stock or securities with a basis of at least US$1 million are required to attach a statement to their U.S. federal income tax returns for the taxable year in which the Business Combination is completed containing certain information prescribed by applicable Treasury Regulations.

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends received by U.S. Holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares (including constructive dividends), and the proceeds received on the disposition of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares effected within the United States (and, in certain cases, outside the United States), in each case, other than U.S. Holders that are exempt recipients (such as corporations). Information reporting requirements will also apply to redemptions from U.S. Holders of Aimei Health ordinary shares. Backup withholding may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent or the U.S. Holder’s broker) or is otherwise subject to backup withholding.

Certain U.S. Holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of the applicable dollar threshold are required to report information to the IRS relating to Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), by attaching a complete IRS Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return, for each year in which they hold Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition to these requirements, U.S. Holders may be required to annually file FinCEN Report 114 (Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts) with the U.S. Department of Treasury. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding information reporting requirements relating to their ownership of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or credit against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Cayman Islands Tax Considerations

The following summary contains a description of certain Cayman Islands income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of ordinary shares, but it does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase ordinary shares. The summary is based upon the tax laws of the Cayman Islands and regulations thereunder as of the date hereof, which are subject to change.

Prospective investors should consult their professional advisers on the possible tax consequences of buying, holding, or selling any shares under the laws of their country of citizenship, residence or domicile.

The following is a discussion on certain Cayman Islands income tax consequences of an investment in the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. The discussion is a general summary of present law, which is subject to prospective and retroactive change. It is not intended as tax advice, does not consider any investor’s particular circumstances, and does not consider tax consequences other than those arising under Cayman Islands law.

Under Existing Cayman Islands Laws:

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of Pubco Securities will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of a dividend or capital to any holder of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, nor will gains derived from the disposal of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax. The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, corporation, appreciation or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax.

No stamp duty is payable in respect of the issue of Pubco Securities or on an instrument of transfer in respect of a Pubco Security save certain stamp duties which may be applicable, from time to time, on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within the jurisdiction or produced before a court of the Cayman Islands.

Pubco has been incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability and, as such, has applied for and expects to obtain/obtained an undertaking from the Financial Secretary of the Cayman Islands in the following form:

The Tax Concessions Act

Undertaking as to Tax Concessions

In accordance with Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, the Financial Secretary undertakes with Pubco:

(a)     that no law which is hereafter enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to Pubco or its operations; and

(b)    in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable:

(i)     on or in respect of the shares, debentures or other obligations of Pubco; or

(ii)    by way of the withholding in whole or part, of any relevant payment as defined in the Tax Concessions Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands.

These concessions shall be for a period of TWENTY years from the date of such undertaking.

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains, or appreciations and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to Pubco levied by the government of the Cayman Islands save for certain stamp duties which may be applicable, from time to time, on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within the jurisdiction or produced before a court of the Cayman Islands.

DILUTION TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF AIMEI HEALTH

Aimei Health’s net tangible book value as of December 31, 2024 was $72,307,939, or $8.01 per share, based on 9,026,000 Aimei Health ordinary shares outstanding as of that date. After giving effect to the automatic conversion of Aimei Health Rights into Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares upon the Closing, Aimei Health’s as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2024 would have been $6.90 per share. The following table illustrates the changes in net tangible book value to existing shareholders and dilution to recipients of United Hydrogen Merger Shares at varying redemption levels.

Table of Contents

Ordinary Shares redeemed in February 2025, further redemption of 3,724,216 Pubco Ordinary Shares by public shareholders upon closing of business combination. The redemption of 3,724,216 Pubco Ordinary Shares is the maximum amount of Pubco Ordinary Shares which could be redeemed public shareholders so as the net tangible assets upon consummation of our initial business is no less than 5,000,001.

A $1.00 increase or decrease in the price at which the shares are issued from the assumed issuance price of US$10.00 per share, would increase or decrease, respectively, Aimei Health’s as adjusted net tangible book value per share by $0.04 per share, and the dilution per share to the shareholders of Aimei Health in the Business Combination and recipients of United Hydrogen Merger Shares by approximately $0.04 per share, assuming no redemption. The as adjusted information provided above is illustrative only.

Upon the issuance of 150,000,000 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares at $10.00 per share in the Business Combination, the percentage ownership held by current Aimei Health shareholders will be diluted. The ultimate ownership percentage of current Aimei Health shareholders as a group post-Business Combination will depend on how many Aimei Health Ordinary Shares are redeemed by their holders in the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, current Aimei Health shareholders, as a group, will own (i) 6.53% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming no Public Shareholders exercise the redemption rights, (ii) 4.47% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming 50% redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares (iii) 2.33% of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination, assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As a result, current Aimei Health shareholders, as a group, will have a less significant influence on Pubco’s Board of Directors, management and policies.

Subsequent to the Business Combination, Pubco may, under certain circumstances and without further approval of holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares, issue additional Pubco Ordinary Shares, equity-linked securities, or convertible debt securities of equal or senior rank. Such issuances may serve various purposes, including financing Pubco’s operations and business strategy (such as acquisitions, PIPE investments, or other transactions), adjusting Pubco’s debt-to-equity ratio, or satisfying obligations arising from the exercise of outstanding options or other equity-linked securities. These additional issuances could materially and adversely affect the rights and interests of Aimei Health shareholders who do not redeem their shares in the Business Combination. Specifically, issuing new securities may dilute their ownership and voting power, and reduce their ability to influence corporate actions and decisions. Further, issuing securities at a price below the current market value could immediately diminish the economic value of existing shares. If any new securities are issued with rights or preferences superior to those of existing shareholders — such as preferential voting rights, priority dividend entitlements, or senior liquidation preferences — Aimei Health shareholders could see their positions further subordinated in Pubco’s capital structure. Additionally, the conversion or exercise of equity-linked or convertible securities could exacerbate this dilution, particularly if these securities contain terms favorable to their holders.

In connection with the Business Combination, subject to shareholder approval, Pubco will adopt the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan. Following the Closing of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to grant equity awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, or other equity-based compensation, to its directors, officers, and employees pursuant to the Plan. These equity awards are intended to incentivize performance, attract and retain talent, and align the interests of key personnel with those of Pubco’s shareholders. However, Pubco has not determined the timing, schedule, or amounts of such grants as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The issuance of equity awards under the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan will dilute the equity interests of Aimei Health’s public shareholders, including non-redeeming shareholders of Aimei Health and reduce the value of their holdings. The extent of such dilution will depend on the size and frequency of equity awards granted. Additionally, if the Pubco Equity Incentive Plan authorizes a significant number of shares for issuance, this could result in substantial dilution over time, which may adversely affect the market price of Pubco’s securities.

OTHER INFORMATION RELATED TO AIMEI HEALTH

References in this section to “Aimei Health,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company.

Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd is a blank check company incorporated on April 27, 2023 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Aimei Health seeks to acquire small cap businesses in the biopharmaceutical, medical technology and device industries, as well as in the diagnostic and other services sector. Aimei Health’s efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region.

Aimei Health has 24 months from the date of the IPO, December 6, 2023 (assuming exercise of all 12 monthly extensions), to consummate a prospective business combination. In the event Aimei Health does not consummate a business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, it will cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account and distribute the funds included therein to the holders of its securities sold in its IPO and dissolve.

Initial Public Offering

The registration statement for our IPO was declared effective by the SEC on November 30, 2023. We completed our IPO on December 6, 2023. In our IPO, we sold Units at an offering price of $10.00 and consisting of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination.

In connection with the IPO, we sold 6,900,000 Public Units, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and the Sponsor, Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 332,000 Units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,320,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Public Units in the IPO, except that the Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units (except to certain permitted transferees) until six (6) months after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination.

Following the IPO and the simultaneous private placement, a total of $69,690,000 in net proceeds was placed in the Trust Account established by Continental, our transfer agent, and maintained at Continental, acting as trustee. This amount was comprised of proceeds of $69,000,000 in gross proceeds from the IPO and a total of $3,320,000 in gross proceeds for the sale of the Private Placement Units, offset by $1,930,000 in total offering expenses (including a total of $1,380,000 in underwriting discounts and $550,000 for other costs and expenses related to the IPO) and $700,000 in use of proceeds not held in the Trust Account, which became available to be used to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations, and continuing general and administrative expenses.

Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay its taxes, the funds held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of our initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any of our Public Shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, after amended and restated memo and articles), or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, and (iii) the redemption of our Public Shares if we are unable to complete our initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, after amended and restated memo and articles).

As of June 30, 2025, we had $2,138 in cash, $44,511,399 in its Trust Account, and working capital deficit of $2,169,328. As of such date, the Company had liability for deferred underwriting commissions of $690,000.

The Company’s Units are listed on Nasdaq and commenced trading under the trading symbol “AFJKU” on December 3, 2023. The Units began separate trading on January 22, 2024 and the ordinary shares and rights commenced trading on Nasdaq under the symbols “AFJK,” and “AFJKR,” respectively.

Extension of Deadline to Complete Initial Business Combination

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that we have 12 months from the closing of the IPO to consummate our initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 12 months, we may, by resolution of our board if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to 12 times, each by an additional one month, for a total of up to 24 months to complete a business combination, subject to the sponsor depositing additional funds into the trust account as set out below. Pursuant to the terms of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement dated December 1, 2023 entered into between us and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Agreement”), in order for the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination to be extended, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the trust account an monthly extension fee of $227,700 (or $0.033 per public share in either case) each month on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline for each extension. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for us to complete our initial business combination. Shareholders will not be granted any right to approve or disapprove any such monthly extension, or redeem their securities in connection with any decision by us to extend the time frame to complete a business combination from 12 months to up to 24 months.

Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. Any such loans will be non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of our initial business combination. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. If we do not complete a business combination, we will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with our Initial Shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which our Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans out of the funds held in the Trust Account in the event that we do not complete a business combination. Our Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for us to complete our initial business combination. You will not be able to vote on or redeem your shares in connection with any such extension.

On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account in accordance with the terms set forth in the Trust Agreement, to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2024, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the deadline for completing of an initial business combination was extended to October 6, 2025 and the Sponsor currently intends to continue to deposit additional funds as described herein to further extend such deadline to up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO, to complete the initial business combination. However, there is no guarantee that the Sponsor will make such deposit timely or at all as described above. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Aimei Health and the Business Combination — Aimei Health may not be able to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame, in which case Aimei Health would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and it would redeem its public shares and liquidate, and the rights will be worthless” for details of the associated risks.

Acquisition Strategy and Management Business Combination Experience

Our efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region. We believe that we will add value to these businesses primarily by providing them with access to the U.S. capital markets.

We will seek to capitalize on the strength of our management team. Our team consists of experienced professionals and senior operating executives. Collectively, our officers and directors have decades of experience in mergers and acquisitions, and operating companies. We believe we will benefit from their accomplishments, and specifically their current and recent activities with companies, in identifying attractive acquisition opportunities. However, there is no assurance that we will complete a business combination.

189

Table of Contents

In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for our initial business combination, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including other blank check companies, private equity groups, venture capital funds leveraged buyout funds, and operating businesses seeking strategic acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have significant experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Moreover, many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than us. Our ability to acquire larger target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business. Furthermore, the requirement that we acquire a target business or businesses having a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the agreement to enter into the business combination, our obligation to pay cash in connection with our Public Shareholders who exercise their redemption rights and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses. Any of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating our initial business combination.

Initial Business Combination Timeframe and Nasdaq Rules

Initially, we had until 12 months from December 6, 2023 (the closing of the IPO) to consummate our initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 12 months, we may, by resolution of our board if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to 12 times, each by an additional month (for a total of up to 24 months to complete a business combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account as set out below. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the deadline for completing of an initial business combination was extended to October 6, 2025 and the Sponsor intends to further deposit additional funds into the Trust Account to extend it to complete an initial business combination.

The Nasdaq rules require that our initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business combination. Additionally, pursuant to Nasdaq rules, any initial business combination must be approved by a majority of our independent directors.

Summary Information Related to Our Securities, Redemption Rights, and Liquidation

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company and our affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Cayman Companies Act, and common law of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, our authorized share capital consists of $50,000 divided into 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 each. The information provided below is a summary only and we refer you to our prospectus dated as of December 5, 2023 and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

In our IPO, we sold Units at an offering price of $10.00 and consisting of one ordinary share, one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 6,121,733 ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders and vote together as a single class, except as required by law. Unless specified in the Cayman Companies Act, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of our ordinary shares that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our shareholders.

We will provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their ordinary shares upon the completion of our initial business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether we will seek shareholder approval of a proposed business combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction, whether the terms of the transaction would require us to seek shareholder approval under the law or stock exchange listing requirement or whether we were deemed to be a foreign private issuer (which would require that we conduct a tender offer under SEC rules rather than seeking shareholder approval). Under Nasdaq rules, asset acquisitions and stock purchases would not typically require shareholder approval while direct mergers with our company where we do not survive and any transactions where

190

Table of Contents

we issue more than 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares (unless we are deemed to be a foreign private issuer at such time) or seek to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association would require shareholder approval. So long as we obtain and maintain a listing for our securities on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with Nasdaq rules.

We will provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their ordinary shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be approximately $10.10 per public share (subject to increase of up to an additional $0.40 per Public Share in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a business combination). The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriters. The Initial Shareholders, including the Sponsor, officers, and directors, have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares, and any Public Shares they may hold in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. The Initial Shareholders received no additional consideration in exchange for the agreement to waive their redemption rights.

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that in no event shall we redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon consummation of our initial business combination (so that we are not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules). In the event the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all ordinary shares that are validly submitted for redemption exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the business combination or redeem any shares, and all ordinary shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof.

Aimei Health will have only up to 24 months from the closing of Aimei Health’s IPO (if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within such time period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our rights, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the allotted time period.

We currently maintain our executive offices at 10 East 53rd Street, Suite 3001, New York, NY 10022. Such space, utilities and secretarial and administrative services will be provided to us by our Sponsor as part of the administrative service, which was charged at $10,000 per month. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the principal executive offices of Aimei Health will be those of United Hydrogen.

We currently have two executive officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to our affairs until we have completed our initial business combination. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for our initial business combination and the stage of the business combination process we are in. We do not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of our initial business combination.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is no material litigation, arbitration, or governmental proceeding currently pending against us or any members of our founding team in their capacity as such.

Director Independence

Nasdaq requires that a majority of our board must be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen and Julianne Huh are our independent directors. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present. Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from independent parties. Any affiliated transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Audit Committee

We have established an audit committee of the board of directors. Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh serve as members of our audit committee. Lin Bao chairs the audit committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the audit committee all of whom must be independent. Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen and Julianne Huh are independent.

Member of the audit committee is financially literate and our board of directors has determined that Lin Bao qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

Responsibilities of the audit committee include:

        the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;

        pre-approving all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm or any other registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;

        reviewing and discussing with the independent registered public accounting firm all relationships the auditors have with us in order to evaluate their continued independence;

        setting clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent registered public accounting firm;

        setting clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

194

Table of Contents

        obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing the independent auditor’s internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within, the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues;

        reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and

Compensation Committee

The members of our Compensation Committee are Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh. Dr. Julianne Huh chairs the compensation committee. We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which detail the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:

        reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation in executive session at which the Chief Executive Officer is not present;

        reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other officers;

        reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;

        implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;

        assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

        approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;

        producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

        reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

Nominating Committee

Our nominating committee consists of Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh, each of whom is an independent director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Robin H. Karlsen chairs the nominating committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:

        should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;

        should possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the board of directors and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and

        should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the shareholders.

The Nominating Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background, integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

Code of Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers, and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. We filed a copy of our form of Code of Ethics and our audit committee charter as exhibits to the registration statement in connection with our IPO. You will be able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of our officers currently serves, and in the past year has not served, (i) as a member of the compensation committee or board of directors of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our compensation committee, or (ii) as a member of the compensation committee of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our board of directors.

Compensation Recovery and Clawback Policies

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the event of misconduct that results in a financial restatement that would have reduced a previously paid incentive amount, we can recoup those improper payments from our executive officers. The SEC also recently adopted rules which direct national stock exchanges to require listed companies to implement policies intended to recoup bonuses paid to executives if we are found to have misstated its financial results.

We have adopted a compensation recovery policy (the “Clawback Policy”) effective as of November 30, 2023 that complies with the Nasdaq’s new clawback rules promulgated under the SEC’s Rule 10D-1.

The Clawback Policy provides for the mandatory recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from our current and former executive officers as defined in the Rule (“Covered Executives”) in the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. The recovery of such compensation applies regardless of whether a Covered Executive engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement of an accounting restatement. Under the Clawback Policy, our board of directors may recoup from the Covered Executives erroneously awarded incentive compensation received within a lookback period of the three completed fiscal years preceding the date on which we are required to prepare an accounting restatement.

The foregoing description of the Clawback Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Clawback Policy, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 97.1 to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Conflicts of Interest

Under Cayman Islands law, directors and officers owe the following fiduciary duties:

        duty to act in good faith in what the director or officer believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole;

        duty to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose;

        directors should not improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion;

        duty not to put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests; and

        duty to exercise independent judgment.

In addition to the above, directors also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill, and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill and experience which that director has.

As set out above, directors have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing, or to otherwise benefit as a result of their position. However, in some instances what would otherwise be a breach of this duty can be forgiven and/or authorized in advance by the shareholders provided that there is full disclosure by the directors. This can be done by way of permission granted in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or alternatively by shareholder approval at general meetings.

Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise when our board evaluates a particular business opportunity with respect to the above-listed criteria. We cannot assure you that any of the above-mentioned conflicts will be resolved in our favor. Furthermore, each of our officers and directors currently has and may in the future have fiduciary obligations to other businesses, including other blank check companies similar to our company, of which they are now or may in the future be officers or directors. To the extent they identify business opportunities which may be suitable for the entities to which they owe fiduciary obligations, our officers and directors will honor those fiduciary obligations. Accordingly, it is possible they may not present opportunities to us that otherwise may be attractive to us unless the entities to which they owe fiduciary obligations and any successors to such entities have declined to accept such opportunities.

In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, each of our officers and directors has contractually agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with us, until the earliest of a business combination, our liquidation or such time as he ceases to be an officer or director, to present to our company for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any suitable business opportunity which may reasonably be required to be presented to us, subject to any fiduciary or contractual obligations he might have.

Potential investors should also be aware of the following other potential conflicts of interest:

        None of Aimei Health’s officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to Aimei Health’s affairs and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating his or her time among various business activities.

        In the course of their other business activities, Aimei Health’s officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to Aimei Health as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. Aimei Health’s management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.

        The Initial Shareholders of Aimei Health, including the Sponsor, does not have any redemption rights with respect to any Aimei Health ordinary shares held by it. If Aimei Health fails to complete its initial business combination within 24 months after the completion of its IPO (i.e., by December 6, 2025 (assuming all 12 monthly extensions are made) or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders

197

Table of Contents

of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association)), the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Aimei Health Public Shares, and the Private Placement Units and underlying securities will be worthless. With certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares will not be transferable, assignable, or salable by the Initial Shareholders until the earlier of (i) the six-month anniversary of the Business Combination, (ii) the date on which the closing price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days following the Closing, or (iii) the date following the Closing on which Pubco completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Pubco shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. With certain limited exceptions, the Private Placement Units and underlying securities will not be transferable, assignable, or salable by our Sponsor until six (6) months after the completion of our initial business combination. Since our Sponsor and officers and directors may directly or indirectly own ordinary shares and rights following this offering, our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination.

        Our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating the Business Combination to the extent of their interests in the Sponsor and if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors is included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination.

        The Sponsor has invested an aggregate of $3,345,000 in Aimei Health, comprised of (i) $25,000 for 1,725,000 Founder Shares (approximately $0.014 per share), of which 152,000 Founder Shares were transferred to the then officers and directors of Aimei Health on May 25, 2023, and (ii) $3,320,000 for 332,000 Private Shares. Accordingly, even if the trading price for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares following the Business Combination is as low as approximately $1.76 per share, the aggregate market value of the Founder Shares and Private Shares would be approximately equal to the initial investment in Aimei Health by the Sponsor. Given the differential in purchase price that the Sponsor paid for the Aimei Health ordinary shares as compared to the price of the Aimei Health Units sold in the IPO, the Initial Shareholders may realize a positive rate of return on such investment even if Aimei Health public shareholders experience a negative rate of return following the Business Combination.

        The Sponsor, officers, and directors will lose their entire investment in Aimei Health and will not be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses if an initial business combination is not consummated by December 6, 2025 (assuming exercise of each of the 12 monthly extensions, or such later date as may be approved by the shareholders of Aimei Health in an amendment to the Aimei Health amended and restated articles of association).

        As of the Record Date, the Initial Shareholders of Aimei Health, including our Sponsor and officers and directors, owned an aggregate of 2,057,000 ordinary shares. They have waived their right to redeem these shares, or to receive distributions with respect to these shares upon the liquidation of the Trust Account if Aimei Health is unable to consummate a business combination. Based on a market price of $[•] per share and $[•] per unit on the Record Date, the value of these shares was approximately $[•] million. These ordinary shares acquired by the Initial Shareholders prior to the IPO will be worthless if Aimei Health does not consummate a business combination. Consequently, directors’ and officers’ discretion in identifying and selecting United Hydrogen as a suitable target business may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether the terms, conditions, and timing of the Business Combination are appropriate and in Aimei Health’s Public Shareholders’ best interest.

        The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and its affiliate have not been involved in any other special purpose acquisition companies and do not hold financial interests or have contractual obligations to other entities with which Aimei Health is exploring entering into a business combination.

The conflicts described above may not be resolved in our favor. Except as described above, none of the Sponsor, Aimei Health, or its directors or officers have a conflict of interest because of relationship with United Hydrogen.

198

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding these conflicts of interest, Aimei Health’s directors and officers believe that consummation of the Business Combination is in the best interests of the Public Shareholders for the following reasons:

        Aimei Health management analyzed investment opportunities in various sectors and geographic regions in an effort to locate the best potential business combination opportunity for its shareholders.

        United Hydrogen is a hydrogen solution provider committed to providing customers with decarbonization solutions tailored to their energy decarbonization goals. Driven by the mission of “Living in Harmony with Nature,” United Hydrogen operates its business in China through its subsidiaries, including without limitation, Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng. Currently, United Hydrogen, through its subsidiaries, has been in the business of providing (i) hydrogen energy solutions, specializing in the evaluation, design, and construction (through third-party construction contractors) of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, and post-delivery operation and management of these facilities, and (ii) hydrogen commercial applications, focusing on selling fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts, and designing, selling and leasing fuel cell forklifts.

        Aimei Health believes that a business combination with United Hydrogen will provide Aimei Health shareholders with an opportunity to participate in a company with significant growth potential. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Reasons for Aimei Health Board of Directors’ Approval of the Business Combination.”

        The Aimei Health board of directors received the fairness opinion from CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Ltd., as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to United Hydrogen, of the consideration to be paid by Aimei Health (in the form of Pubco Ordinary Shares) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement. For additional information, please see the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial Analysis of CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Ltd.” and the opinion of CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Ltd. attached hereto as Annex F.

Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities.

To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our initial shareholders, officers, or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions, and the approval of a majority of our disinterested independent directors that the business combination is fair to our company (or shareholders) from a financial point of view. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that, subject to fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands law, we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue.

Our officers and directors, as well as our Initial Shareholders, have agreed, pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with us, (i) to vote any Founder Shares and Private Shares held by them in favor of any proposed business combination and (ii) not to redeem such shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or any amendment to our charter documents prior to the consummation of our initial business combination or sell any shares to us in a tender offer in connection with a proposed initial business combination.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides for indemnification of our (former and existing) officers and directors (“Indemnified Persons”) to the maximum extent permitted by law against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained in or about the conduct of Aimei Health’s business or affairs or in the execution or discharge of the Indemnified Person’s duties, powers, authorities or discretions. This includes all costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Person in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceedings (whether threatened, pending or completed) concerning Aimei Health or its affairs in any court or tribunal, whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere. However, no Indemnified Person shall be indemnified in respect of any matter arising out of his own actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect. We may purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

No executive officer has received any cash or non-cash compensation for services rendered to us.

No compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees, and other similar fees, will be paid to our Initial Shareholders, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to or in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is), other than the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf, such as identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combination. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the Trust Account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination. Our audit committee will review and approve all reimbursements and payments made to our Sponsor or members of our management team, or our or their respective affiliates, and any reimbursements and payments made to members of our audit committee will be reviewed and approved by our board of directors, with any interested director abstaining from such review and approval.

Upon the completion of our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us, may be paid consulting, management, or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider an initial business combination, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation. In this event, such compensation will be publicly disclosed at the time of its determination in an Exchange Act filing such as Current Report on Form 6-K, as required by the SEC.

We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares, and debt.

We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete the Business Combination will be successful.

Our Sponsor is Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company.

We will have up to 24 months from the closing of the IPO to complete our initial business combination if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, which may be accomplished only if the Sponsor deposits additional funds into the Trust Account. The Sponsor may extend the deadline for completion of an initial business combination from December 6, 2024 up to 12 times, each by an additional one month until December 6, 2025, subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account with a monthly extension fee of $227,700 (or $0.033 per Public Share). On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700 (equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health has to consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 5, 2024, Aimei Health held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which approved the proposal by its board of directors to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor and/or its designee into the Trust Account to extend the date by which Aimei Health must consummate its initial business combination, from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025, and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to October 6, 2025. The Sponsor intends to continue to extend such deadline to complete an initial business combination till December 6, 2025.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue to date. Our only activities from inception to June 30, 2025 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for and conduct the IPO, and those required to identify and evaluate a target company for a business combination. We will not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of our initial business combination, at the earliest. We have generated and will continue to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash in bank and investments held in the Trust Account from the proceeds derived from the IPO. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a business combination.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net income of $609,632, which consisted of interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account of $1,064,650, offset by formation and operational costs of $455,018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net income of $1,364,592, which consisted of interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account of $1,827,338, offset by formation and operational costs of $462,746.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had a net income of $2,552,215, which consisted of interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account of $3,617,001, offset by formation and operational costs of $1,064,786.

Table of Contents

For the period from April 27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, we had a net income of $171,389, which consisted of interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account of $199,848 offset by formation and operational costs of $28,459.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2025, we had $2,138 in our operating bank account, $44,511,399 in our Trust Account, and working capital deficit of $2,169,328. As of December 31, 2024, we had $28,208 in our operating bank account, $73,784,549 in our Trust Account, and working capital deficit of approximately $786,610.

Our liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to cover certain offering costs on our behalf in exchange for issuance of founder shares, and the borrowing of approximately $210,151 from the Sponsor under an unsecured promissory note. We have repaid the unsecured promissory note in full on December 7, 2023. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, our liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors, may, but are not obligated to, provide us with Working Capital Loans. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Loans.

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet our anticipated cash needs prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. However, we cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available. Over the time period prior to our initial business combination, we will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

Going Concern Consideration

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $2,318 and $28,208 in cash, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, we had working capital deficit of $2,169,328. As of December 31, 2024, we had working capital deficit of $786,610. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a business combination. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern one year from the issuance date of the unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025. In order to finance transaction cost in connection a business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us with Working Capital Loans to the Company. Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if we are unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of our IPO, the requirement that we cease all operations, redeem the public shares, and thereafter liquidate and dissolve, raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which contemplate the continuation of our Company as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets, or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2025. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

203

Table of Contents

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, or long-term liabilities. The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of one percent (1.0%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO upon closing of a business combination, or $690,000. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of the business combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. As of June 30, 2025, we have not identified any critical accounting estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the material weakness in our internal controls as a result of inadequate segregation of duties within accounting processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting and record keeping.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW OF HYDROGEN ENERGY

Unless otherwise noted, all the information and data presented in this section have been derived from the industry report of Frost & Sullivan commissioned by United Hydrogen in July 2024 entitled “Independent Study on The Hydrogen Energy Market in China” (the “Frost & Sullivan Report”). Frost & Sullivan has advised that the statistical and graphical information contained herein is drawn from its database and other sources. The following discussion contains projections for future growth, which may not occur at the rates that are projected or at all.

Key advantages of hydrogen energy

Hydrogen stands out as a future energy source due to its significant advantages. It boasts an extremely high energy density of approximately 120 megajoules (MJ) per kilogram, making it highly effective for applications like transportation, aerospace, and long-distance transport. This high energy density enhances fuel efficiency and reduces storage and transportation needs. Hydrogen is also an unlimited resource, being the most abundant element in the universe. It can be produced from any water source via methods such as water electrolysis, leveraging renewable energy sources like solar and wind power for sustainable energy supply. This ensures a stable hydrogen supply and reduces dependence on fossil fuels.

Hydrogen is environmentally clean, producing only water as a byproduct without emitting carbon dioxide (CO2) or other greenhouse gases, thus mitigating air pollution and climate change. Renewable energy-based hydrogen production can achieve zero carbon emissions, supporting global green energy transitions and environmental goals.

Furthermore, hydrogen is highly flexible in transportation and storage. It can be transported in gaseous or liquid form through pipelines, trucks, or ships. Liquid hydrogen’s higher storage and transportation density is suitable for large-scale, long-distance needs, while compressed gaseous hydrogen fits well with mid-short distance supply chains. Advances in solid-state and organic liquid hydrogen storage technologies further enhance safety and efficiency, broadening hydrogen’s application potential.

Hydrogen’s high energy density, abundance, environmental benefits, and versatile transportation and storage options make it a highly promising alternative to traditional energy sources, aligning with global sustainability trends.

Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles market in China

The implementation of city cluster demonstration policies in China has established annual targets for promoting hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (HFCVs) in five major city clusters. Aiming to achieve carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, and supported by the hydrogen energy development plan (2021-2035), HFCVs are set to become a significant mode of transportation. This shift is expected to drive a rapid increase in sales volume due to growing interest in low-emission transportation, increased investment, and government initiatives.

From 2019 to 2023, the sales volume of HFCVs in China rose from 2.7 thousand to 5.8 thousand units, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1%. Future projections indicate a surge in HFCV sales from 9.5 thousand units in 2024 to 80.4 thousand units by 2028, representing a CAGR of 70.6%.

Similarly, the sales volume of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts in China increased from 0.1 thousand units in 2019 to 0.6 thousand units in 2023, with a CAGR of 63.6%. Forecasts suggest a rapid growth in forklift sales, from 1.0 thousand units in 2024 to 12.1 thousand units by 2028, representing a CAGR of 84.3%.

These trends highlight the significant role of hydrogen fuel cell technology in advancing low-emission transportation and supporting China’s environmental and energy goals.

Source: Frost & Sullivan Report

The promotion of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) is transitioning from being policy-driven to market-driven. Initially spurred by incentive policies, the long-term expansion of FCVs will depend on their total cost of ownership (TCO). As the TCO of FCVs becomes lower than that of traditional fuel vehicles, they are expected to replace them. This shift is driven by advancements in fuel cell technology reducing acquisition costs and improvements in hydrogen production, storage, and transportation technologies lowering energy usage costs.

Currently, the industry is focusing on promoting FCVs in regions with abundant low-cost hydrogen resources, particularly where industrial by-product hydrogen is available. For instance, provinces like Shanxi, with a strong industrial base for by-product hydrogen from chemical enterprises, are ideal for FCV promotion due to lower energy consumption costs and TCO. These regions not only benefit from lower transportation costs but also meet the long-distance transportation needs of chemical enterprises, making FCVs more economically viable.

The application of FCVs is expected to diversify beyond public transportation and logistics into areas such as rail transport on specific routes, passenger vehicles, intercity logistics, and intercity passenger transport. As hydrogen and fuel cell technologies advance and costs decrease, FCVs will complement pure electric vehicles, leveraging their advantages in different scenarios. This complementary relationship will allow FCVs and electric vehicles to coexist in the long term, addressing various energy structure differences across regions and enhancing market applications.

According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, among other requirements, (1) domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, should fulfill the filing procedures with the CSRC; if a domestic company fails to complete the filing procedure, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties; (2) if the issuer meets both of the following conditions, the overseas offering and listing shall be determined as an indirect overseas offering and listing by a domestic company: (i) any of the total assets, net assets, revenues or profits of the domestic operating entities of the issuer in the most recent accounting year accounts for more than 50% of the corresponding figure in the issuer’s audited consolidated financial statements for the same period; (ii) its major operational activities are carried out in China or its main places of business are located in China, or the senior managers in charge of operation and management of the issuer are mostly Chinese citizens or are domiciled in China; and (3) where a domestic company seeks to indirectly offer and list securities in an overseas market, the issuer shall designate a major domestic operating entity responsible for all filing procedures with the CSRC, and such filings shall be submitted to the CSRC within three business days after the submission of the overseas offering and listing application. The Overseas Listing Trial Measures further provides that an overseas listing or offering is explicitly prohibited, if any of the following: (1) such securities offering and listing is explicitly prohibited by provisions in laws, administrative regulations and relevant state rules; (2) the intended securities offering and listing may endanger national security as reviewed and determined by competent authorities under the State Council in accordance with law; (3) the domestic company intending to make the securities offering and listing, or its controlling shareholder(s) and the actual controller, have committed relevant crimes such as corruption, bribery, embezzlement, misappropriation of property or undermining the order of the socialist market economy during the latest three years; (4) the domestic company intending to make the securities offering and listing is currently under investigations for suspicion of criminal offenses or major violations of laws and regulations, and no conclusion has yet been made thereof; or (5) there are material ownership disputes over equity held by the domestic company’s controlling shareholder(s) or by other shareholder(s) that are controlled by the controlling shareholder(s) and/or actual controller.

In addition, the Overseas Listing Trial Measures provide that the direct or indirect overseas listings of the assets of domestic companies through one or more acquisitions, share swaps, transfers or other transaction arrangements shall be subject to filing procedures in accordance with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, which filing shall be submitted within three business days after the issuer submits its application documents relating to the initial public offering and/or listing or after the first public announcement of the relevant transaction (if the submission of relevant application documents is not required). The Overseas Listing Trial Measures also require subsequent reports to be filed with the CSRC on material events, such as change of control or voluntary or forced delisting of the issuer(s) who have completed overseas offerings and listings. Guidance for Application of Regulatory Rules — Overseas Offering and Listing No.1, promulgated by CSRC together with the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, provides that if a domestic enterprise completes an overseas offering through an overseas special purposes acquisition company, it shall submit the filing materials within three business days after such overseas special purposes acquisition company publicly announces such acquisition transaction.

Furthermore, on February 24, 2023, the CSRC revised the Archives Rules issued in 2009, and the revised Archives Rules came into effect on March 31, 2023. In the overseas listing activities of domestic companies, domestic companies, as well as securities companies and securities service institutions providing relevant securities services thereof, should establish a sound system of confidentiality and archival work, shall not disclose state secrets, or harm the state and public interests. Where a domestic company provides or publicly discloses to the relevant securities companies, securities service institutions, overseas regulatory authorities and other entities and individuals, or provides or publicly discloses through its overseas listing entity, any document or material involving any state secret or any work secret of any governmental agency, it shall report to the competent authority for approval in accordance with the law, and submit to the secrecy administration department for filing.

Regulations Relating to Tax

Enterprise Income Tax

According to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law promulgated by the SCNPC on March 16, 2007 and last amended on December 29, 2018 and the Implementation Rules of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law promulgated by the State Council on December 6, 2007 and amended on April 23, 2019, the income tax rate for both PRC domestic companies and foreign-invested enterprises is 25% unless otherwise provided for specifically. Enterprises are classified as either PRC resident enterprises or non-PRC resident enterprises. In addition, enterprises established outside China whose de facto management bodies are located in China are considered PRC resident enterprises and subject to the 25% enterprise income tax rate for their global income. An income tax rate of 10% applies to dividends declared to non-PRC resident enterprise investors that do not have an establishment or place of business in China, or that have such establishment or place of business but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, to the extent such dividends are derived from sources within China.

Value-added Tax

According to the PRC Provisional Regulations on Value-Added Tax last amended on November 19, 2017 and its implementation rules last amended on October 28, 2011, unless stipulated otherwise, taxpayers who sell goods, labor services, or tangible personal property leasing services, or import goods will be subject to a 17% tax rate; taxpayers who sell transport services, postal services, basic telecommunications services, construction services, or real property leasing services, sell real property or transfer land use rights will be subject to an 11% tax rate; and taxpayers who sell services or intangible assets will be subject to a 6% tax rate. On November 19, 2017, the State Council promulgated the Decisions on Abolishing the PRC Provisional Regulations on Business Tax and Amending the PRC Provisional Regulations on Value-Added Tax, pursuant to which all enterprises and persons engaged in the sale of goods, provision of processing, repairing, and replacement services, sales of services, intangible assets, and real property, and the importation of goods into the territory of the PRC are VAT taxpayers.

According to the Announcement on Relevant Policies for Deepening Value-Added Tax Reform effective on April 1, 2019, the generally applicable value-added tax rates are simplified as 13%, 9%, 6%, and 0%, and the value-added tax rate applicable to small-scale taxpayers is 3%.

Dividend Withholding Tax

The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law stipulates that an income tax rate of 10% applies to dividends declared to non-PRC resident investors that do not have an establishment or place of business in China, or that have such establishment or place of business but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, to the extent that such dividends are derived from sources within China.

Pursuant to the Arrangement between mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion on Income and other applicable laws of mainland China, if a Hong Kong resident enterprise is determined by the competent tax authority to have satisfied the relevant conditions and requirements, the 10% withholding tax rate on the dividends received by the Hong Kong resident enterprise from a PRC resident enterprise may be reduced to 5%. According to the Circular on Several Questions Regarding the Beneficial Owner in Tax Treaties, which was issued by the SAT on February 3, 2018 and took effect on April 1, 2018, when determining an applicant’s status as the beneficial owner regarding tax treatments in connection with dividends, interest, or royalties in the tax treaties, several factors are considered, including whether the applicant is obligated to pay over 50% of the income in twelve months to residents in a third country or region, whether the business operated

230

by the applicant constitutes the actual business activities, and whether the counterparty country or region to the tax treaties does not levy any tax or grant any tax exemption on relevant incomes or levies tax at an extremely low rate, and such factors will be analyzed according to the actual circumstances of the specific cases.

Tax on Indirect Transfer

Pursuant to the Circular 7 on Issues of Enterprise Income Tax on Indirect Transfers of Assets by Non-PRC Resident Enterprises issued by the State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”) on February 3, 2015 and last amended on December 29, 2017 (“Circular 7”), an indirect transfer of assets, including equity interest in a PRC resident enterprise, by non-PRC resident enterprises may be recharacterized and treated as a direct transfer of PRC taxable assets, if such arrangement does not have a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of avoiding payment of PRC enterprise income tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax. When determining whether there is a reasonable commercial purpose of the transaction arrangement, several factors are considered, including whether the main value of the equity interest of the relevant offshore enterprise derives directly or indirectly from PRC taxable assets, whether the assets of the relevant offshore enterprise mainly consists of direct or indirect investment in China or if its income is mainly derived from China, and whether the offshore enterprise and its subsidiaries directly or indirectly holding PRC taxable assets have a real commercial nature that is evidenced by their actual function and risk exposure.

The Circular 7 does not apply to sales of shares by investors through a public stock exchange where such shares were acquired on a public stock exchange. On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the Circular on Issues of Tax Withholding Regarding Non-PRC Resident Enterprise Income Tax (“Circular 37”), which was amended by the Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation on the Revision to Certain Taxation Regulatory Documents issued by the SAT on June 15, 2018. The Circular 37 further elaborates the relevant implementing rules regarding the calculation, reporting, and payment obligations of the withholding tax by non-PRC resident enterprises.

Business Overview

We are a hydrogen solution provider committed to providing customers with decarbonization solutions tailored to their energy decarbonization goals. Driven by the mission of “Living in Harmony with Nature,” we operate our business in China through our subsidiaries, including without limitation, Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng, in two primary business sectors, hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications.

We have been in the business of providing (i) hydrogen energy solutions since 2019, specializing in the evaluation, design, and construction (through third-party construction contractors) of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations, as well as post-delivery operation and management of these facilities, and (ii) hydrogen commercial applications since 2021, focusing on selling fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts, and designing, selling and leasing fuel cell forklifts.

We have a significant business presence in key regions of China, including the Yangtze River Delta region, Shandong province, Shanxi province, Ningxia autonomous region, and Inner Mongolia autonomous region. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we have (i) designed, constructed, and managed the operation of one hydrogen production plant and 20 hydrogen refueling stations in 10 cities across six provinces of China, and (ii) sold fuel cell systems for hydrogen trucks and forklifts to three customers located in three cities across three provinces of China, and sold or leased fuel cell forklifts to 26 customers located in six cities across five provinces of China.

Our customers in the hydrogen energy solutions sector utilize our products and services to establish and manage their hydrogen infrastructures. These customers typically include local government agencies, state-owned enterprises, large energy conglomerates, major chemical companies, or infrastructure developers. For the period from January 1, 2025 through the April 30, 2025, we provided 38 hydrogen energy solutions services to 37 customers, all of which are still in process.

Our hydrogen commercial applications customers use our solutions either for on-road logistics, which involves the transportation and delivery of goods and commodities via roadways, or for non-road material handling, which encompasses the movement of materials and goods within enclosed areas that do not rely on roads. Customers in this sector usually consist of logistics groups, large-scale manufacturers, ports, and mining companies.

We position ourselves as both a hydrogen industry solution provider and an integrator. We have adopted a “light-asset” business model, under which we collaborate closely with selected third-party suppliers to deliver our customers customized solutions that integrate various hydrogen equipment, products and services from these third-party suppliers. Our suppliers include IT suppliers, key component providers, hydrogen equipment manufacturers, vehicle OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), construction contractors, transportation fleets, and energy suppliers. We believe that our “light asset” approach enhances our agility and refocus resources on core capabilities.

We are committed to continuously strengthening our presence along the hydrogen value chain. Our ultimate goal is to expand our business in the hydrogen industry to encompass hydrogen production, storage, transportation, refueling, equipment supply, and commercial applications. We expected to raise additional proceeds ranging between $70 million and $80 million through debt and equity financing, in the next two years, to support our business plan. We hope to contribute to the development, and become a significant player, of a sound commercial hydrogen ecosystem which encourages innovation, collaboration, profitability and growth in the hydrogen industry.

We had net income of approximately $0.6 million and approximately $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

Our business, financial condition and results of operations have been, and are expected to continue to be, affected by a number of factors, which primarily include the following:

Capability to retain existing clients and continuously acquire new clients

The stability and growth of our business depend on our ability to retain existing customers, and continuously explore new commercial scenarios and new requirements of existing customers. Also, we will continuously explore new customers in key industries. The retention and the acquisition of customers are crucial for the sustainable growth of our performance. We will continuously improve customer satisfaction, demonstrate first-class standards in product and service delivery, provide quick responses providing high-quality hydrogen solutions to fulfill clients’ green and decarbonized transformation.

Ability to adopt new technologies

The hydrogen industry is in a stage of rapid development, and emerging technologies are constantly emerging in various links of the hydrogen value chain including production, storage, transportation, dispensing and utilization. The existing technologies are also constantly iterating and upgrading to get better performance as well as lower cost. In order to provide clients with more efficient, advanced, and cost-effective solutions, we need to have the ability to learn, validate, introduce, and implement new technologies which would empower our solution competitiveness, respond quickly and apply these technologies to client commercial application environments. We will continue to invest in technology research and development, collaborate with more technology partners, train employees to become familiar with and test various new technologies, and continuously utilize new technologies to innovate in products and services.

The quality and performance of products and services

In order to continuously provide value to clients, our solutions must ensure reliable quality and stable performance. The quality and performance factors determine the actual benefits that clients can enjoy from using our solutions, and will affect customer satisfaction, subsequent order renewals and the expansion of new business. We have established a stable cooperative relationship with top suppliers in the industry, and have adopted strict quality inspection and management methods during project implementation. In the operation and maintenance stage, quality audits are also regularly conducted on key links to ensure that the products provided by us continuously meet customer needs.

Ability to acquire key resource in hydrogen value chain

Our solutions consist of comprehensive aspects from hydrogen acquisition, dispensing services, key component and equipment, and subsequent operation and maintenance services. We provide value to our clients only by providing high-quality and low-cost services products and services. Therefore, it is crucial for us to acquire resources such as hydrogen gas sources, core equipment suppliers, storage and transportation suppliers and operation service networks. We will continue to deepen cooperation with local governments, key technology owners, leading suppliers and other key partners. Through the growth of business, we will strengthen our ability to acquire resources in various links, and bring best-fit solutions to our clients.

Ability to interpret and leverage the policies

The hydrogen industry is currently in the development stage, with continuously updated national policies and various local policies evolving. The policies vary from construction approval of hydrogen production plants and refueling stations, subsidies for hydrogen consumption, production qualification of vehicles and equipment, and national as well as regional hydrogen industry development plans. We will analyze and plan according to local restrictions in different regions, combined with local policy guidance, to choose the most suitable hydrogen energy path to convert the planning into actual solutions that will best benefit the clients. Currently, the development of the hydrogen energy

Revenues

Our revenues increased by approximately $39.5 million, or 301% from approximately $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to approximately $52.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of approximately $22.6 million in revenues generated from sales of fuel cell systems, an increase of approximately $15.3 million in revenues from sales of hydrogen gases to hydrogen refueling stations, and an increase of approximately $2.0 million in revenues generated from the provision solutions to refueling station.

Sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems.    For the year ended December 31, 2024, the increase in revenues generated from sales of fuel cell systems was primarily due an increase of customer base from one customer to five customers.

Provision of hydrogen gas to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations.    For the year ended December 31, 2024, we commenced sales of hydrogen gas to hydrogen refueling stations, which contributed to an increase of revenues of approximately $15.3 million.

Provision of solutions to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations.    The increase in revenues generated from the provision of solutions to refueling station was primarily because we completed solutions for more customers for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We intend to expand our business coverage to provide comprehensive and one-stop solutions across the hydrogen ecosystem, including hydrogen production, storage, transportation, refueling, equipment supply, and commercial application by implementing strategies including:

(i)     Participation in the Hydrogen Supply Chain:    We are currently negotiating with several leading energy companies, such as Hangzhou Gas Group, Zhejiang Energy Group and China Petrochemical Corporation, to explore the possibility of participating in the hydrogen supply chain business by building a hydrogen supply chain network, including hydrogen pricing, network deployment based on hydrogen consumption scenarios, transportation and storage methods, and transaction models. We have entered into a corporation agreement with Hangzhou Gas Group and Zhejiang Energy Group, and we will cooperate in the first hydrogen refueling station in the fourth quarter of 2024.

(ii)    Establishment of the Giga Plant in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China:    We are planning to establish the Giga Plant in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China. As currently planned, the Giga Plant will focus on producing hydrogen storage systems, hydrogen refueling station equipment, and port hydrogen lifting machinery. As of the date of this report, we have completed construction of the infrastructure of the Giga Plant and purchased machinery which will be used for production. We are still in the process of designing production lines and technological process, and

(iii)   Collaboration with OEM Partners:    We plan to collaborate with OEM partners to develop a new generation of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts using modular fuel cell designs, integrated hydrogen production and refueling equipment, and detachable solid-state hydrogen storage systems. Currently we are in the process of the research stage with one of our OEM partners.

Based on the above strategies we intend to implement, we expect our revenue will continue to increase in the years ending December 31, 2025.

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues increased by approximately $37.2 million, or 397% from approximately $9.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $46.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in cost of revenues was primarily due to an increase of approximately $20.2 million in cost of revenues from sales of fuel cell systems, an increase of approximately $15.3 million in cost of revenues from sales of hydrogen gases to hydrogen refueling stations, and an increase of approximately $1.7 million in revenues generated from the provision solutions to refueling station.

Table of Contents

Gross margin

As a result of the foregoing, our gross margin for hydrogen energy solutions was 12% and 26% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The decrease in gross margin was primarily because we had a minimal gross margin from sales of hydrogen gas to hydrogen refueling stations.

Our gross margin for business related to hydrogen commercial applications decreased from 56% for the year ended December 31, 2023 to 11% for the same period of 2024. The decrease of gross margin was primarily because we reduced the proportion of revenues generated from provision of material handling operation services, whose margin was rather high, in the business related to hydrogen commercial applications. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the sales of fuel cell systems contributed 99% revenues generated from business related to hydrogen commercial applications, while the average gross margin of sales of fuel cell systems was 11%.

We expect our gross profit margin will increase as our revenue increases, which will lead to economies of scale.

Selling and marketing expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses increased from approximately $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily caused by an increase of approximately $0.1 million in other miscellaneous expenses as our salespersons incurred more expenses in approaching customers.

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased from approximately $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to approximately $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily caused by an increase of approximately $0.4 million in consulting service expenses as we engaged an audit firm to provide audit services for our business combination with a listed special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) and an increase of approximately $0.2 million in depreciation expenses with purchase of property and equipment in the year of 2024.

Research and development expenses

Our research and development expenses increased by approximately $0.3 million, or 91% from approximately $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, to approximately $0.7 million for the same period of 2024, which was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.3 million in payroll and welfare expense of research and development department staff.

Income tax expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we reported income tax expenses of approximately $0.5 million $0.2 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the income tax expenses arose from our profit-making subsidiaries.

Net income

As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net income of approximately $0.6 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The restricted cash represented guarantee deposits required by one of the banks when the Company applies for letters of credit.

The total balance of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were approximately $1.4 million and $2.8 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

242

Table of Contents

As compared with the balance as of December 31, 2023, the change of balance of cash, cash equivalents and restricted as of December 31, 2024 was primarily a result of cash of approximately $3.3 million used in our operating activities and cash of approximately $1.0 million used in our investing activities, partially net off approximately $3.3 million provided by our financing activities.

The accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024 increased to approximately $18.3 million from approximately $4.1 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase of in sales of hydrogen gas which resulted in an increase of accounts receivable of $2.8 million and an increase of in sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems which resulted in an increase of accounts receivable of $11.4 million.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company reversed expected credit losses of $110,706 and provided expected credit losses of $652,601, respectively, against accounts receivable due from third parties.

Inventories

As of December 31, 2024, the balance of inventories decreased from approximately $7.3 million as of December 31, 2023 to approximately $0.6 million. The decrease in inventories was primarily due to an increase of sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems and fuel cell forklifts during the year of 2024, which led to an improvement in inventory turnover.

Other current assets

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had other current assets of approximately $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The decrease of approximately $0.3 million was primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in tax recoverable, which was primarily due to an increase in revenues which utilized the input value-added taxes included in tax recoverable.

Accounts payable

The accounts payable as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was approximately $25.0 million and $13.7 million. The changes in accounts payable was primarily caused an increase in accounts payable due to purchase of hydrogen fuel cell systems.

Other current liabilities

Other current liabilities were comprised of deposits payable due to customers of hydrogen production plants and hydrogen refueling stations. The Company generally required a deposits from the customers at the inception of the services. (ii) accrued payroll expenses, and (iii) other tax payable.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had other current liabilities of approximately $3.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The line items in other current liabilities were stable over the periods. The increase of approximately $2.7 million was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $2.7 million in other tax payable, which was primarily due to an increase in revenues which led to an increase in output value-added tax payable.

For details of breakdown of related party balances and transactions, please refer to Note 11 — Related Party to the combined and consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity have historically been capital injections from our shareholders and borrowings from third parties. Our ordinary liquidity requirements relate to investments in existing hydrogen plant(s), hydrogen fueling stations and electric forklift businesses, related capital expenditures, asset operation and maintenance, funding for our working capital needs, and general corporate purposes.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we obtained capital contribution from shareholders of approximately $3.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we also borrowed approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million from a third party, respectively. The proceeds raised in these financing activities were all used for our operating activities.

As of December 31, 2024, we had working capital of approximately $4.3 million. As of December 31, 2024, we had current assets of approximately $44.9 million, primarily including cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.4 million, restricted cash of approximately $0.3 million, accounts receivable, including due from third parties and related parties, of approximately $40.9 million, inventories of approximately $0.6 million, due from a related party of approximately $0.2 million and other current assets of approximately $0.9 million. We expect to realize these current assets in the twelve months from the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. On the other hand, we had current liabilities of approximately $40.7 million which were primarily comprised of accounts payable, including due from third parties and related parties, of approximately $34.6 million and other current liabilities of approximately $3.7 million. The significant balance of accounts receivable, including due from third parties and related parties, of approximately $40.9 million was mainly because of an increase in revenues from sales of hydrogen gas and hydrogen fuel cell systems and delayed payments from customer due to the facts that the industries including hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial application are at startup period, and our customers have not achieved profitability which resulted in delayed payments from our customers. We have negotiated with our customers on the collection of payments and they agreed to make payments before June 30, 2025. Considering our customers are subsidiaries of A-share listed companies, we assessed that we would collect the outstanding receivable as negotiated. On the other hand, we delayed payments to our suppliers for the same reasons, and we will make payments to our suppliers once we get paid from our customers. As of the date of this filing, we have collected accounts receivable of approximately $23.4 million and $2.2 million from related party customers and third-party customers, respectively. On the other hand, we have made payments of approximately $1.4 million to our third-party suppliers.

Based on the above facts, we estimate that we will not require additional financing to meet our obligations and execute our business plan over the next 12 months. However, there can be no assurance that we will not require additional financing or that future financing can obtain these funds on acceptable terms or at all or that we can maintain or increase our current revenues.

244

Table of Contents

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our management’s ability to successfully execute our business plan, which may include increasing revenue while controlling operating cost and expenses to generate positive operating cash flows and obtain financing from outside sources. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations, additional covenants and operating restrictions. Future financings could result in the dilution of our existing shareholding. In addition, any of the items discussed in detail under “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this prospectus may also significantly impact our liquidity.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we reported revenues of approximately $52.6 million and $13.1 million, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all of our revenues have been in the form of Renminbi. We expect a material portion of revenues are likely to continue to be in the form of Renminbi. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior SAFE approval as long as certain routine procedural requirements are fulfilled. Therefore, our PRC operating entities are allowed to pay dividends in foreign currencies to us without prior SAFE approval by following certain routine procedural requirements. However, current PRC regulations permit our PRC operating entities to pay dividends to us only out of its accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC operating entities are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits after making up previous years’ accumulated losses each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds until the total amount set aside reaches 50% of their registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Historically, our PRC operating entities have not paid dividends to us, and they will not be able to pay dividends until they generate accumulated profits. Furthermore, capital account transactions, which include foreign direct investment in and loans to our PRC operating entities, must be approved by and/or registered with SAFE, its local branches and certain local banks.

On February 29, 2024, Zhejiang Qingyuan declared to pay dividends in the aggregate amount of RMB7,000,000 to Shanghai RunQing Management Consulting Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership) and Shanghai Qicai Technology Partnership Enterprise (Limited Partnership), its then shareholders, which dividends are expected to be paid within the following one-year period. Zhejiang Qingyuan declared dividends because it had accumulated profits of approximately $9.5 million at the time of declaration.

As a Cayman Islands exempted company and offshore holding company, the Cayman holding company is permitted under PRC Laws and regulations to provide funding to our PRC operating entities only through loans or capital contributions, subject to the approval, filings or registration of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans. This may delay us from using the proceeds from any future offering to make loans or capital contributions to our PRC operating entities.

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was approximately $2.4 million, primarily attributable to net income of approximately $0.6 million, adjusted for non-cash items of provision of expected credit losses of approximately $1.0 million, and changes in operating assets and liabilities, including (i) an increase of approximately

245

Table of Contents

$14.5 million and $20.5 million, respectively, in accounts receivable due from third parties and related parties. Such an increase was due to an increase in revenues from sales of hydrogen gas and hydrogen fuel cell systems, (ii) a decrease of approximately $6.9 million in inventories which is also caused by the increase of revenues, (iii) an increase of approximately $11.9 million and $7.6 million in accounts payable due to third party suppliers and related parties, respectively, which increased in line with the increase in accounts receivable, and (iv) an increase of approximately $2.8 million in accrued expenses and other payables due to an increase in other tax payable arising from increase of revenues.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was approximately $1.0 million, primarily attributable to net income of approximately $0.1 million, adjusted for non-cash items of provision for credit losses of approximately $1.0 million and deferred tax benefits of approximately $0.2 million, and changes in operating assets and liabilities, including (i) an increase of approximately $4.1 million and $2.6 million, respectively, in accounts receivable due from third party customers and related parties and a decrease of approximately $0.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively in contract liabilities with third party customers and related parties, because we just completed hydrogen production plants and refueling stations for certain customers in the last quarter of 2023 and we have not fully collected fees from these customers, and (ii) an increase of approximately $3.4 million in contract costs and an increase of approximately $11.2 million in accounts payable due to third party suppliers mainly because of an increase in inventories related to fuel cell forklifts.

Investing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we reported cash used in investing activities of approximately $1.0 million, which was primarily caused by purchase of property and equipment of approximately $1.0 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we reported cash used in investing activities of approximately $0.4 million, which was primarily caused by purchase of approximately $0.6 million of property and equipment, partially net off against proceeds of approximately $0.2 million collected from redemption of short-term investments.

Financing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we reported cash provided by financing activities of approximately $2.4 million, which was primarily provided by capital contribution of approximately $3.6 million from shareholders and borrowings of approximately $0.2 million from third parties, partially net off against repayment of borrowings of approximately $0.5 million to a third party and payment of offering costs of approximately $0.9 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we reported cash provided by financing activities of approximately $2.8 million, which was primarily provided by capital contribution of approximately $2.3 million from shareholders, proceeds of approximately $0.5 million from a third party, and proceeds of approximately $0.3 million from a related party, partially net off against repayment of borrowings of approximately $0.3 million to the related party.

Capital Expenditure

We incur capital expenditures primarily for the purchase of property and equipment. Our capital expenditures were approximately $1.0 million and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We will continue to make capital expenditures to meet the expected growth of our business.

Contingent Liabilities

We are subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. See “Business of United Hydrogen — Legal Proceedings.” Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the potential loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. However, we believe that the final disposition of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow. We maintain various liability insurance coverage to protect our assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations. We believe that we have adequately provided for contingencies which are likely to become payable. None of these contingencies are material to our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2024, we are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements, including guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests, or unconsolidated variable interest entities that either have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk of loss resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Fluctuations in exchange rates between the RMB and other currencies in which we conduct business may affect our financial position and results of operations. Our functional currency is U.S. dollar. We are mainly exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from our cash and cash equivalents dominated in RMB.

In addition, we have operating subsidiaries which are located in the PRC with all of the transactions settled in RMB. We consider that our business in the PRC is not exposed to any significant foreign exchange risk as there are no significant financial assets or liabilities of these subsidiaries denominated in the currencies other than the functional currency.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash, which is mostly held in interest-bearing bank deposits and financial products purchased from financial institutions. Interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not been exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates, and we have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest risk exposure.

Trend Information

We are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our revenues, net income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause reported financial information not necessarily to be indicative of future operating results or financial condition.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salary and welfare expenses for our research and development department employees and information technology expenses, both of which were incurred for the development of hydrogen equipment for hydrogen production plants and refueling stations and fuel cell forklifts. We incurred research and development expenses of approximately $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

We will continue to work on the development of our hydrogen equipment for refueling stations and fuel cell forklifts. We expect to allocate a portion of the proceeds of this offering for the development that should be sufficient to support our research and development. However, we may need to devote more resources and funds to improve as our business develops.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires our management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. We continually evaluate these judgments, estimates and assumptions based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgments and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors that should be considered when reviewing our financial statements. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. You should read the following description of critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and other disclosures included herein.

A list of critical accounting policies, judgements and estimates that are relevant to us is included in note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Business Combination

Following the Closing, Pubco intends to develop an executive compensation program that is consistent with existing compensation policies of Nasdaq-listed peer companies, which are designed to align the interest of executive officers with those of its stakeholders, while enabling Pubco to attract, motivate, and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of Pubco. Specific determinations with respect to director and executive compensation after the Business Combination will be determined by the compensation committee of the Pubco Board at the time.

Employment Agreements

Pubco is expected to enter into independent director appointment agreements (“Appointment Agreements”) with each of our Independent Directors. Pursuant to the Appointment Agreements, we agree to appoint each of our Independent Directors for an initial term of three years, which could be extended by Pubco for additional term(s) not exceeding

251

Table of Contents

six years. Independent Directors will act as the members of Pubco Board and exercise their duties in accordance with the relevant laws, regulations, and the Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Pubco will provide Independent Directors with the same right to information as other directors of Pubco and the necessary working conditions to fulfill their responsibilities.

Subject to the procedures set forth in the relevant laws, regulations, and the Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, an Independent Director shall be terminated for cause when he or she (i) is convicted of a criminal offense (ii) is sanctioned by relevant securities regulatory authorities, or (iii) otherwise becomes ineligible to serve as a director or independent director under applicable laws, regulations, the Nasdaq rules, and the Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. An Independent Director may also be terminated by the shareholders of Pubco in accordance with the terms of the Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. If an Independent Director’s direct family members (including parents, spouse, children and their spouses, siblings, etc.) or other related parties become senior managers or related persons of Pubco, the Independent Director must promptly notify Pubco in writing and resign. If, for any reasons, Pubco cannot elect a new director before the termination or end of the Independent Director’s term, the Independent Directors shall continue to perform their duties until the new Independent Director(s) of the Pubco Board are elected. To the extent that an Independent Director is terminated or resigns without cause, Pubco will negotiate the termination terms with the Independent Director in good faith.

Foreign Private Issuer

After the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will report under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, the determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to Pubco on December 31, 2024. For so long as Pubco is a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, it will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

        the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K with the SEC;

        the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

        the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and

        the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material nonpublic information under Regulation Fair Disclosure, or Regulation FD, which regulates selective disclosure of material non-public information by issuers.

Pubco will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information Pubco is required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. Accordingly, after the Business Combination, Pubco shareholders will receive less or different information about Pubco than a shareholder of a U.S. domestic public company would receive. Nonetheless, Pubco intends to align itself with the practices adopted by Nasdaq-listed U.S. domestic companies to the best of its ability to provide its shareholders with enhanced transparency and protection.

In addition, for as long Pubco remains a foreign private issuer, it is permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country, the Cayman Islands, in lieu of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq applicable to U.S. domestic companies. For example, among other things, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, Pubco is not required to have: (1) a majority-independent board of directors; (2) a compensation committee consisting of independent directors; (3) a nominating committee consisting of independent directors; or (4) regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year. In addition, the Company is not obliged to hold an annual general meeting as an exempted company under the Companies Act. And because we are a foreign private issuer, our audit committee is not necessarily subject to additional Nasdaq corporate governance requirements applicable to listed U.S. companies whereby the audit committee shall be made up of such number of independent directors. The Nasdaq Listing Rules may also require shareholder approval for certain corporate matters that Pubco’s home-country’s rules do not. Following Cayman Islands governance practices, as opposed to complying with the requirements applicable to a U.S. company listed on Nasdaq, may provide less protection to you than would otherwise be the case.

252

Table of Contents

Upon of the Business Combination, Pubco’s board of directors will consist of five directors, including three independent directors. Additionally, Pubco will establish an audit committee (composed of the three independent directors), a nomination and corporate governance committee (composed of three directors, two of whom are independent), and a compensation committee (composed of three directors, two of whom are independent). These arrangements are in compliance with Nasdaq Rules. However, Pubco may follow the home-country practice for certain other corporate governance practices in the future, which may differ from the requirements applicable to a U.S. company listed on Nasdaq. In addition, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, Pubco may, but shall not (unless required by the law or the rules and regulations of Nasdaq or the SEC and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under applicable law) be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as an annual general meeting.

Controlled Company Status

After the completion of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma will control a majority of the voting power of Pubco’s outstanding ordinary shares. As a result, Pubco will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of applicable Nasdaq listing rules. Under these corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including the requirements (1) that a majority of its board of directors consist of independent directors, (2) that its board of directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities and (3) that its board of directors have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco intends to utilize some of these exemptions. Although Pubco will have a compensation committee and nominating committee, such committees will not be composed entirely of “independent directors.” Upon completion of the Business Combination, Pubco anticipates that the size of its board of directors will be five directors, three of whom will qualify as independent directors as defined within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq listing rules and will meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of these corporate governance requirements.

According to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, Class B Ordinary Shares of Pubco carry ten (10) votes per share. Immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, Ms. Ma will control approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares voting as a single class assuming no redemptions are made by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power assuming maximum contractual redemptions by the Aimei Health Public Shareholders, of their Aimei Health ordinary shares. As such, she will retain the ability to control the outcome of any matters submitted to a general meeting of the Pubco without needing to hold any Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, Ms. Ma does not need to hold any Class A Ordinary Shares to maintain control over matters requiring shareholder approval, so long as she retains a majority of the voting power of her Class B Ordinary Shares.

With approximately 93.15% of the aggregate voting power (assuming no redemptions) or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power (assuming maximum contractual redemptions), Ms. Ma has the ability to control matters requiring shareholder approval, including but not limited to, the election of directors, amendments to the memorandum and articles of association, and the approval of significant corporate transactions such as mergers, recapitalization, consolidations, and asset sales. Under Article 2.7 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, certain corporate actions, including amendments or mergers, require the approval of a majority of the Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a separate class. Given her Class B holdings, Ms. Ma is effectively positioned to control these decisions.

Pubco’s capital structure, which grants Class B Ordinary Shares ten (10) votes per share, gives Ms. Ma significant voting power. This structure may have an anti-takeover effect by enabling Ms. Ma to prevent a change in control transaction that Class A shareholders might otherwise consider in their best interest. As a result, the disproportionate voting power of the Class B shares allows Ms. Ma to block such transactions, even if they are supported by a majority of Class A shareholders.

Table of Contents

Under Article 2.1 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the board of directors of Pubco (the “Board”) has broad authority to issue shares. However, given Ms. Xia Ma’s substantial control over the Board and her significant voting power through her Class B Ordinary Shares, the likelihood of future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares that would dilute the rights of Class A shareholders is relatively low. Ms. Ma, by virtue of her control over both the Board and the voting power of Pubco, is well-positioned to prevent any issuances that might dilute Class A shareholders’ interests. Therefore, while the authority to issue shares exists, the potential for further dilution through additional Class B Ordinary Share issuances appears limited under the current governance structure.

Duties of Directors

Under Cayman Islands law, all of Pubco’s directors owe three types of duties to Pubco: (i) statutory duties, (ii) fiduciary duties, and (iii) common law duties. The Cayman Companies Act imposes a number of statutory duties on a director. A Cayman Islands director’s fiduciary duties are not codified, however, the courts of the Cayman Islands have held that a director owes the following fiduciary duties: (a) a duty to act in what the director bona fide considers to be in the best interests of the company, (b) a duty to exercise their powers for the purposes they were conferred, (c) a duty to avoid fettering his or her discretion in the future and (d) a duty to avoid conflicts of interest and of duty. The common law duties owed by a director are those to act with skill, care and diligence that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and, also, to act with the skill, care and diligence in keeping with a standard of care commensurate with any particular skill they have which enables them to meet a higher standard than a director without those skills. In fulfilling their duty of care to Pubco, Pubco’s directors must ensure compliance with Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Pubco has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by any of its directors is breached.

The functions and powers of the Pubco Board include, among others:

        appointing officers and determining the term of office of the officers;

        exercising the borrowing powers of Pubco and mortgaging the property of Pubco; and

        maintaining or registering a register of mortgages, charges, or other encumbrances of Pubco.

Terms of Directors and Executive Officers

The board of directors of Pubco consists of five (5) persons. Any Pubco’s director whose term of office expires shall be eligible for re-election at a meeting of the Pubco shareholders or re-appointment by the board of directors of Pubco. A director may be removed by ordinary of shareholders or by the majority of the other directors. Any vacancy on the board of Pubco may be filled by directors of Pubco. A remaining director may appoint a director even though there is not a quorum of directors. In addition, Pubco’s officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the board of directors of the Pubco.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will establish a separately standing audit committee, nominating and corporate governance committee, and compensation committee. The Pubco Board will adopt a charter for each of these committees. Pubco intends to comply with future Nasdaq requirements to the extent they will be applicable to Pubco.

Audit Committee

Upon the Closing, Pubco’s audit committee will be composed of Junxia Ren, Yi Chen, and Xinrong Zhang, with Junxia Ren serving as chairperson. The Pubco Board has determined that all such directors meet the independence requirements under the Nasdaq listing rules and under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Each member of the audit committee is financially literate, in accordance with Nasdaq audit committee requirements, and possesses prior experience sitting in auditing committees of publicly-listed companies. In arriving at this determination, the Pubco Board examined each audit committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their prior and/or current employment.

Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee

Compensation Committee

The compensation committee will also administer Pubco’s equity-based and incentive compensation plans and make recommendations to the Pubco Board about amendments to such plans and the adoption of any new employee incentive compensation plans.

Code of Ethics

Pubco will adopt a code of ethics that applies to all of its employees, officers, and directors. This includes Pubco’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. Pubco intends to disclose on its website any future amendments of the code of ethics or waivers that exempt any principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, persons performing similar functions, or Pubco’s directors from provisions in the code of ethics.

At any time prior to the Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Aimei Health or its securities, the Aimei Health Initial Shareholders, officers, and directors, as well as United Hydrogen and/or their affiliates, may enter into a written plan to purchase Aimei Health securities pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, and may engage in other public market purchases, as well as private purchases, of securities. The ownership percentages listed above do not include any such shares that may be purchased after the Record Date.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on the ordinary shares of Aimei Health. For example, as a result of these arrangements, an investor or holder may have Aimei Health, United Hydrogen, or their respective affiliates effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market and may therefore be more likely to sell the shares it owns, either prior to or immediately after the Meeting.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there have been no such discussions and no agreements to such effect have been entered into with any such investor or holder. Aimei Health will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose arrangements entered into or significant purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the proposals included herein or the Redemption threshold. Any such report will include descriptions of any arrangements entered into or significant purchases by any of the aforementioned persons.

Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights

Pubco is a Cayman Islands exempted company. Cayman Islands law and Pubco’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association will govern the rights of its shareholders. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association will differ in certain material respects from the memorandum and articles of association of Aimei Health. As a result, when you become a shareholder of Pubco, your rights will differ in some regards as compared to when you were a shareholder of Aimei Health.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Aimei Health

References to “we,” “our,” or “us” or refer to Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd.

Securities held by Sponsor

Prior to the IPO, we issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang, who is the director of our Sponsor. On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023 the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023 our directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by us, the shares have been retroactively adjusted.

As of May 8, 2023, $25,000 was included as a subscription receivable. On September 15, 2023, we received $25,000 from the Sponsor in cash. The Sponsor transferred 152,000 of those ordinary shares among our then-chief executive officer, chief financial officer and three independent director nominees at their original purchase price pursuant to executed securities assignment agreements, effective as of May 25, 2023.

On October 20, 2023, we capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares (of which 152,000 Founder Shares were transferred to the then officers and directors of Aimei Health on May 25, 2023) being issued and outstanding. 225,000 of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full.

In addition, our Sponsor (and/or its designees) purchased an aggregate of 332,000 Private Placement Units (including 27,000 Units in connection with the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of our IPO. Each Unit consists of one Private Share, one Private Right granting the holder thereof the right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Public Units sold in our IPO, except that the Private Placement Units (including the underlying securities) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by it until six months after the completion of our initial business combination. The private placement resulted in gross proceeds to us of $3,320,000. The purchase price of the Private Placement Units will be used to ensure that the amount in trust is equal to 101% of the offering proceeds, to pay offering expenses and to provide for operating expenses following completion of the offering.

Administrative services agreement

The Sponsor agreed, commencing from the date that the Aimei Health’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities, and administrative services, as Aimei Health may require from time to time. Aimei Health agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the unpaid balance was $180,000 and $120,000, respectively, which was included in amount due to related party balance.

Loans provided by Sponsor

On May 1, 2023, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to us, pursuant to which we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $750,000, to be used for payment of costs related to the IPO. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, (ii) the consummation of the IPO, or (iii) the date on

266

Table of Contents

which the Company determines to not proceed with the IPO. As of December 6, 2023, we have borrowed $210,151 under the promissory note with our Sponsor. This promissory note was fully repaid on December 7, 2023. There was no balance due as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us with Working Capital Loans. Such Working Capital Loans will be evidenced by promissory notes. If we complete an initial business combination, the notes will either be repaid without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

Registration rights agreement

We have entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, and units issued upon conversion of working capital loans (if any), and the securities underlying the Private Placement Units and the working capital loans (if any). At the Closing, we, Pubco, and certain of our shareholders, including the Sponsor, are expected to enter into a certain Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, to be effective as of the Closing, pursuant to which Pubco agrees to file a registration statement as soon as practicable upon receipt of a request from certain shareholders to register the resale of certain registrable securities under the Securities Act, subject to required notice provisions to other parties thereto. Pubco has also agreed to provide customary “piggyback” registration rights with respect to such registrable securities and, subject to certain circumstances, to file a resale shelf registration statement to register the resale under the Securities Act of such registrable securities.

Others

No compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid to our Sponsor, officers and directors, or their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.

After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.

If any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity that falls within the line of business of any entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she may be required to present such business combination opportunity to such entity prior to presenting such business combination opportunity to us, subject to his or her fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands law. Our officers and directors currently have certain relevant fiduciary duties or contractual obligations that may take priority over their duties to us.

Holders of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with one another and generally have the same rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including with respect to dividends rights and liquidation rights upon liquidation of the Company, except for voting and conversion rights as set out under the Pubco M&A. The holders of Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to one (1) vote for each Class A Ordinary Share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders, whereas the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares will be entitled to ten (10) votes for each Class B Ordinary Share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

There are no limitations on the right of nonresident or foreign owners to hold or vote Ordinary Shares imposed by Cayman Islands law or by the Pubco M&A.

Immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma will control the voting power of all of the outstanding Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares. The dual-class structure of Pubco Ordinary Shares has the effect of concentrating voting control in Ms. Xia Ma, given that upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Ms. Xia Ma will beneficially own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming no redemptions) or 93.53% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco (assuming maximum contractual redemptions). As a result of the disparate voting power of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Ms. Ma, she will possess the ability to control Pubco’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, the election of directors, and other significant corporate actions. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Aimei Health and the Business Combination — Because of the dual-class voting structure of Pubco and the disparate voting power of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, the beneficial owner of the Class B Ordinary Shares, Ms. Xia Ma, Pubco’s Chairperson of the Board of Directors, will own 93.15% of the aggregate voting power of Pubco Ordinary Shares (assuming no redemptions) and her interests may not align with the interests

of the other Pubco shareholders.” As further described below, upon any transfer of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares by a holder thereof to any person which is not a Permitted Transferee (as defined below) of such holder, those shares will automatically and immediately convert into Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, all Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert to Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in other events described below. See “Description of Pubco Securities — Optional and Mandatory Conversion.”

Voting Rights

Holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares have the right to receive notice of, attend at and vote at general meetings of the Pubco. In respect of all matters upon which holders of Pubco Ordinary Shares are entitled to vote, each Pubco Class B Ordinary Share will be entitled to ten (10) votes and each Pubco Class A Ordinary Share will be entitled to one (1) vote. At any general meeting of the Pubco, a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a poll.

Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares and Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares will vote together on all matters, except that Pubco will not, without the approval by vote or written consent of holders of a majority of the voting power of the Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, voting exclusively and as a separate class:

        increase the number of authorized Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares;

        issue any Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, other than (i) to any Key Executive or his or her Affiliates, or (ii) on a pro rata basis to all holders of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares permitted to hold such shares under the Pubco M&A;

        create, authorize, issue, or reclassify into, any preference shares in the capital of Pubco or any shares in the capital of Pubco that carry more than one (1) vote per share;

        reclassify any Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares into any other class of Pubco shares or consolidate or combine any Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares without proportionately increasing the number of votes per Pubco Class B Ordinary Share; or

        amend, restate, waive, or adopt any provision inconsistent with or otherwise vary or alter any provision of the Pubco M&A relating to the voting, conversion, or other rights, powers, preferences, privileges, or restrictions of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares.

An ordinary resolution to be passed by the shareholders will require a simple majority of votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders, while a special resolution will require not less than two-thirds of votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders. An ordinary resolution may be passed by way of a resolution in writing by all of the shareholders entitled to vote at a general meeting of the Pubco in one or more instruments each signed by one or more of the shareholders and the effective date of the resolution so adopted shall be the date on which the instrument, or the last of such instruments, if more than one, is executed, and a special resolution may also be passed by way in writing by all of the shareholders entitled to vote at a general meeting of the Pubco in one or more instruments each signed by one or more of the Shareholders and the effective date of the resolution so adopted shall be the date on which the instrument, or the last of such instruments, if more than one, is executed.

Optional and Mandatory Conversion

Each Pubco Class B Ordinary Share will be convertible into one Pubco Class A Ordinary Share at the option of the holder thereof. The Pubco M&A do not provide for the conversion of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares into Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares.

Any number of Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares held by a holder thereof will automatically and immediately be converted into an equal number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares upon the occurrence of any of the following:

Tax Treaty

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is not party to any double tax treaties that are applicable to any payments made to or by Pubco. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of Pubco Ordinary Shares will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of a dividend or capital to any holder of Pubco Ordinary Shares, nor will gains derived from the disposal of Pubco Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income, withholding or corporation tax.

273

Table of Contents

No Cayman Islands stamp duty is payable in respect of the issue of Pubco Ordinary Shares or on an instrument of transfer in respect of Pubco Ordinary Shares. However, as above, Cayman Islands stamp duty will be payable if an instrument of transfer is executed in, or brought to, the Cayman Islands (including being produced to a court of the Cayman Islands).

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Some provisions of the Cayman Islands law and Pubco M&A may have the effect of delaying, deterring, or discouraging another party from acquiring control of Pubco. Pubco M&A provide restrictions requiring the holders of shares together carrying at least 10% of the rights to vote at a general meeting to be able to requisition a general meeting of shareholders.

The Pubco M&A require an ordinary resolution to remove any director. The Pubco M&A and Cayman Islands law also require a special resolution to amend the Pubco M&A. Such requirements may prevent the existing shareholders of Pubco from effecting a change of management of Pubco and removing the provisions in Pubco’s constitutional documents that may have an anti-takeover effect. See the section entitled “Beneficial Ownership of Securities — Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights.”

SHARE ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Pubco will have, based on the assumption of no redemptions by Aimei Health Public Shareholders as set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, up to 157,568,133 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, consisting of 66,759,245.50 Class A Ordinary Shares and 90,808,887.50 Class B Ordinary Shares. All of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issued to the Aimei Health Shareholders in connection with the Business Combination will be freely transferable by persons other than by Sponsor or affiliates of Aimei Health, Pubco or United Hydrogen without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Additionally, the United Hydrogen shareholders will receive 59,191,112.50 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, approximately 55.29% of which will be freely transferable immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination. Sales of substantial amounts of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Prior to the Business Combination, there has been no public market for Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares. Pubco has applied for listing of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, but there can be no assurance that a regular trading market will develop in the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares.

Lock-up Agreement

Simultaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, United Hydrogen, Aimei Health and Pubco have entered into a lock-up agreement (the “Seller Lock-Up Agreement”) with certain United Hydrogen shareholders (each, a “Seller Lock-Up Party”). The lock-up agreement provides for a lock-up period commencing from the Closing and ending on the earlier of: (a) six (6) months from and after the Closing; (b) the date following the Closing on which Pubco completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Pubco’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property; or (c) the date on which the closing sale price of the Pubco Ordinary Shares has equaled or exceeded $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) consecutive trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing. Notwithstanding the above, the transfer of Pubco Ordinary Shares held by a Seller Lock-Up Party after the Closing during the applicable lock-up period is permitted if (a) to Pubco’s officers or directors, or any affiliates or family members of any of Pubco’s officers or directors, any members of the Sponsor or any affiliates of the Sponsor; (b) to any affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 of under the under the Securities Act) of such Seller Lock-Up Party; (c) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family, to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (d) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (e) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (f) in the case of an entity, by distribution to limited partners, shareholders, members of, or owners of similar equity interests in such Seller Lock-Up Party by virtue of the laws of the jurisdiction of such Seller Lock-Up Party’s organization and such Seller Lock-Up Party’s organizational documents upon the liquidation and dissolution of such Seller Lock-Up Party; (g) by private sales made in connection with the consummation of a change of control at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (h) by virtue of the laws of the Cayman Islands or the Company’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Company; (i) in the event of Pubco’s liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization, or other similar transaction which results in all of Pubco’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities, or other property subsequent to the Closing; and (j) which were acquired in the PIPE Investment or in open market transactions after the Closing.

Rule 144

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted Pubco Ordinary Shares for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities; provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of Pubco’s affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) Pubco is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as it was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

275

Table of Contents

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted Pubco Ordinary Shares for at least six months but who are Pubco’s affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

        one percent (1%) of the total number of Pubco Ordinary Shares then issued and outstanding; or

        the average weekly reported trading volume of the Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by Pubco’s affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about Pubco.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

        the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

        the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

        the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials); and

        at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed Form 20-F type information with the SEC, which is expected to be filed promptly after consummation of the Business Combination, reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

Registration Rights Agreements

At the Closing, Pubco and certain shareholders of United Hydrogen (the “United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders”) shall enter into the Seller Registration Rights Agreement, in the form mutually agreed between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. Under the Seller Registration Rights Agreement, the United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders shall have registration rights that will obligate Pubco to register for resale under the Securities Act all or any portion of their Pubco Ordinary Shares received as company merger consideration (together with any capital shares or other securities issued as a dividend or distribution with respect thereto or in exchange therefor, the “Seller Registrable Securities”). The United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders holding a majority-in-interest of the Seller Registrable Securities (based on the number of shares and not voting rights) will be entitled under the Seller Registration Rights Agreement to make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Seller Registrable Securities, and other United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders holding Seller Registrable Securities will be entitled to join in such demand registration. Subject to certain exceptions, if any time after the Closing, Pubco proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to its securities, under the Seller Registration Rights Agreement, Pubco shall give notice to the United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders holding Seller Registrable Securities as to the proposed filing and offer them an opportunity to register the sale of such number of Seller Registrable Securities as requested by them in writing, subject to customary cut-backs. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, the United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders holding Seller Registrable Securities will be entitled under the Seller Registration Rights Agreement to request in writing that Pubco register the resale of any or all of such Seller Registrable Securities on Form F-3 and any similar short-form registration that may be available at such time. Further, the United Hydrogen Registration Rightholders acknowledge that Aimei Health and/or Pubco may, prior to the Closing, grant registration rights to PIPE Investors with respect to the PIPE securities issuable pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements entered into for the PIPE Investment or a registration rights agreement to be entered into between Aimei Health and/or Pubco, as the case may be, and PIPE Investors in connection therewith. If either Aimei Health or United Hydrogen elects to seek a PIPE Investment, the other party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other in connection with such PIPE Investment and cause such PIPE Investment to occur.

At the Closing, Aimei Health, Pubco, the Initial Shareholders and the other parties thereto (together with the Initial Shareholders, the “Founder Registration Rightholders”) shall enter into the Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, in the form mutually agreed between Aimei Health and United Hydrogen. Under the Founder Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, the Founder Registration Rights Agreement will be amended to, among other things, add Pubco as a party and to reflect the issuance of Pubco Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, and to reconcile with the provisions of the Sellers Registration Rights Agreement.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

Pubco is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability. Pubco is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands because of certain benefits associated with being a Cayman Islands company, such as political and economic stability, an effective judicial system, tax neutrality, the absence of exchange control or currency restrictions, and the availability of professional and support services. The Cayman Islands, however, has a less comprehensive body of securities laws as compared to the United States and provides significantly less protection for investors than the United States. Additionally, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the Federal courts of the United States.

Substantially all of Pubco’s operations are conducted outside the United States, and substantially all of Pubco’s assets are outside the United States. In addition, all of Pubco’ five directors and executive officers will be residents of the PRC. All or a substantial portion of the assets of these directors and officers are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for shareholders to effect service of process within the United States upon these four directors and officers, or to enforce against them or Pubco judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in the PRC — You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments, or bringing actions in China against Pubco or its management that reside outside the United States based on foreign laws. It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China.”

Pubco has appointed Cogency Global Inc. as its agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against Pubco in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the federal securities laws of the United States or of any state in the United States or any action brought against Pubco in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the County of New York under the securities laws of the State of New York.

Harney Westwood & Riegels, Pubco’s counsel with respect to the laws of the Cayman Islands, and Yongxing Law Firm, Pubco’s counsel with respect to PRC law, have advised that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands or the PRC would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of courts of the United States against us based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws or (ii) entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

The Cayman Islands Grand Court will at common law enforce final and conclusive in personam judgments of state and/or federal courts of the United States of America (the “Foreign Court”) of a debt or definite sum of money against Pubco (other than a sum of money payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature, or in respect of a fine or other penalty (which may include a multiple damages judgment in an anti-trust action)). The Grand Court of the Cayman Islands will also at common law enforce final and conclusive in personam judgments of the Foreign Court that are non-monetary against Pubco, for example, declaratory judgments ruling upon the true legal owner of shares in a Cayman Islands company. The Grand Court will exercise its discretion in the enforcement of non-money judgments by applying the law of equity and determining whether the principle of comity requires recognition. To be treated as final and conclusive, any relevant judgment must be regarded as res judicata by the Foreign Court. A debt claim on a foreign judgment must be brought within 12 years of the judgment becoming enforceable, and arrears of interest on a judgment debt cannot be recovered after six years from the date on which the interest was due. The Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the Foreign Court under civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities law if such a judgment is found by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature, or if such judgment was not obtained in a manner and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. Such a determination has not yet been made by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, and it is therefore uncertain whether such civil liability judgments from the Foreign Court would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere. A judgment entered in default of appearance by a defendant who has had notice of the Foreign Court’s intention to proceed may be final and conclusive notwithstanding that the Foreign Court has power to set aside its own judgment and despite the fact that it may be subject to an appeal the time-limit for which has not yet expired. The Grand Court may safeguard the defendant’s rights by granting a stay of execution pending any such appeal and may also grant interim injunctive relief as appropriate for the purpose of enforcement.

Beijing Yongxing Law Firm, our counsel with respect to PRC law, has advised us that there is uncertainty as to whether PRC courts would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, or (ii) entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

Beijing Yongxing Law Firm has further advised us that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedure Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedure Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between different jurisdictions. There exists no treaty or reciprocity between the PRC and the United States or the Cayman Islands governing the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, PRC courts will not recognize or enforce these foreign judgments against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the foreign judgments violate the basic principles of PRC laws or national sovereignty, security or public interest. Thus, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States or the Cayman Islands.

In addition, under the PRC Civil Procedures Law, foreign shareholders may bring actions against a PRC company based on the PRC law if they can establish a sufficient nexus to the PRC to confer jurisdiction upon a PRC court. They must also meet other procedural requirements, including having a direct interest in the case, a concrete claim, a factual basis, and a cause for the suit. However, it will be difficult for the United States shareholders to bring actions against us in China in accordance with PRC laws because we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and it will be difficult for the United States shareholders, by virtue only of holding our Shares, to establish a sufficient nexus to the PRC for a PRC court to have jurisdiction as required under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. This limits investors’ ability to take actions against us not only regarding the ability to initiate proceedings and enforce civil liability in the PRC, but also in terms of cost and time.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

United Hydrogen Group Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of United Hydrogen Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ Enrome LLP

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and all of these entities are under common control which results in the consolidation of Zhejiang Qingyuan and its wholly owned subsidiary, and Yixun Chuangneng and its wholly owned subsidiaries, which have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control at carrying value.

The Company recognizes the net assets of Zhejiang Qingyuan and its wholly owned subsidiary, and Yixun Chuangneng and its wholly owned subsidiaries at their historical carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. No new goodwill is recognized. The carrying values of Zhejiang Qingyuan and its wholly owned subsidiary, and Yixun Chuangneng and its wholly owned subsidiaries’ net assets were added to the carrying values of the Company’s net assets.

The consolidation has been treated as a corporate restructuring (“Reorganization”) of entities under common control and thus the current capital structure has been retroactively presented in prior periods as if such structure existed at that time and in accordance with ASC 805-50-45-5, the entities under common control are presented on a combined and consolidated basis for all periods to which such entities were under common control. Since Zhejiang Qingyuan and Yixun Chuangneng were under common control for the entirety of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the results of Zhejiang Qingyuan and its wholly owned subsidiary, and Yixun Chuangneng and its wholly owned subsidiaries are included in the combined and consolidated financial statements for both periods.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying combined and consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The combined and consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation. A subsidiary is an entity in which (i) the Company directly or indirectly controls more than 50% of the voting power; or (ii) the Company has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or to cast a majority of votes at the meetings of the board of directors or to govern the financial and operating activities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates and assumptions using the currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may cause the Company to revise its estimates. The Company bases its estimates on past experiences and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters including, but not limited to, allowances for expected credit losses, estimates for inventory and deferred contract cost provisions, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Company is U.S. dollars (“US$” or “$”) and the accompanying combined and consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. Since the Company operates primarily in the PRC, the operating subsidiaries’ functional currency is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The Company’s combined and consolidated financial statements have been translated into the reporting currency US$”. Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated at the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity is translated at historical rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive loss.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, bank deposits, as well as highly liquid investments with original maturities less than three months, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use. The Company maintains most of the bank accounts in the PRC. Cash balances in bank accounts in the PRC are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents the cash pledged with a bank, from which the Company borrowed one-year loans. The restricted cash will be released upon repayment of the borrowing.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the gross billing amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts due from the customers. Accounts receivable do not bear interest.

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses and records the allowance for credit losses as an offset to accounts receivable and the estimated credit losses charged to the allowance is classified as “General and administrative expenses” in the combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on aging schedules because the accounts receivable were primarily consisted of receivables arising from provision of refueling station solutions. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for expected credit loss after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company reversed expected credit losses of $110,706 and provided expected credit losses of $652,601, respectively, against accounts receivable due from third parties. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company provided expected credit losses of $1,119,076 and $298,496, respectively, against accounts receivable due from related parties.

Inventories

Inventories consist of products available for sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost of inventories is determined using the monthly weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable value due to damaged and slow-moving goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and specific customer requirements. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the statements of income and comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not provide inventory write downs.

Notes to the Combined and Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Contract costs

Contract costs incurred during the initial phases of the Company’s sales contracts are capitalized when the costs relate directly to the contract, are expected to be recovered, and generate or enhance resources to be used in satisfying the performance obligation and such deferred costs will be recognized upon the recognition of the related revenue. These costs primarily consist of labor and material costs directly related to the contract.

The Company performs periodic reviews to assess the recoverability of the contract costs. The carrying amount of the asset is compared to the remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive for the services to which the asset relates, less the costs that relate directly to providing those services that have not yet been recognized. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, no impairment loss was recognized.

Deferred offering costs

In the event of offering of equity securities, incremental costs that otherwise would not have been incurred, including legal expenses incurred for preparation of the registration statements, financial advisor fees, registration fees and others, are deferred and capitalized in the balance sheet as deferred offering costs which will be later deducted against additional paid-in capital upon completion of offering of equity securities.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expenses are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets with a 5% residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

Useful Lives

Machinery

 

10 Years

Office equipment

 

3 – 5 Years

Vehicle

 

5 Years

Leasehold improvement

 

5 Years

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred, while additions, renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances indicate a change in estimates of useful lives. No such events were identified for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Impairment for Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment, right-of-use assets and other non-current assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not recognize impairment losses against long-lived assets.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Operating Leases as a Lessee

The Company adopted Topic 842 to recognize operating lease expenses. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within ASC Topic 842, which among other things, allows the Company to carry forward certain historical conclusions reached under ASC Topic 840 regarding lease identification, classification, and the accounting treatment of initial direct costs. The Company elected not to record assets and liabilities on its combined and consolidated balance sheets for any new or existing lease arrangements with lease terms of twelve months or less. The Company recognizes lease expenses for such leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected the transition method which allows entities to initially apply the requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

The initial lease liability is equal to the future fixed minimum lease payments discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, on a secured basis. The lease term includes optional renewal periods and early termination payments when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those rights.

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e. the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment annually. There was no impairment for right-of-use lease assets for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Fuel Cell Forklift Lease Income with Customers

The Company adopted Topic 842 to recognize lease income with customers.

The Company leased fuel cell forklifts to customers for general lease terms ranging between 1 months and 36 months. Lease income is generally fixed in the lease agreement and is recorded net of tax. The Company determines all lease arrangements with customers are operating leases since the benefits and risks incidental to ownership remain with the Company. Lease income, including lease cost escalation, is recognized on a straight-line basis starting from the commencement date stated in the lease agreements.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized lease income of $30,491 and $47,190, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach for contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2021. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. In according with ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

The Company identified each distinct service, or each series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer, as one performance obligation.

Notes to the Combined and Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

The Company applied a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Company has no material incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers that the Company expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year, which need to be recognized as assets.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company primarily generated revenues from the following services:

Revenues related to hydrogen energy solutions

The Company generated revenues related to hydrogen energy solutions from provision of refueling stations solutions, as well as provision of post-delivery operation and management of these facilities.

Provision of refueling station solutions

The Company generates revenue from provision of refueling stations solution by sales and assembling of equipment for hydrogen production plants and refueling stations. The terms of pricing and payment stipulated in the contract are fixed. One performance obligation is identified in the contracts with customers as the equipment and related assembling services are both inputs used to create the customized equipment, which are not distinct in the context of the contract. Because the provision of refueling stations solutions does not meet any criteria in ASC 606-10-25-27, revenue is recognized at the point when the customized equipment is completed and accepted by the customers, normally within a year. Project completion inspection and customer acceptance notice are required as proof of the completion of performance obligations.

Provision of operation and management services to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations

The Company is engaged by customers to provide operation and management services to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations. The operation and management services cover prevention of smoke and explosion in hydrogen production plants and refueling stations, safety management for vehicles in hydrogen production plants and refueling stations, supervision of on-site staff, and others. The Company identifies a single performance obligation from contracts as the series of services are not distinct in the context of the contract and they are inputs to a combined service requested by the customers. The transaction price is fixed and there were no variable considerations, significant financing components or payments to customers in the agreements with customers. The customers simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s operation services to refueling stations, the Company recognizes revenues over service period and measures revenues using input method.

Sales of hydrogen gas to hydrogen production plants and refueling stations

The Company generates revenue from sales of hydrogen gases to customers. The terms of pricing and payment stipulated in the contract are fixed. One performance obligation is identified in the contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized at the point when the hydrogen gas are accepted by the customers.

Revenues related to hydrogen commercial applications

The Company generated revenues related to hydrogen commercial applications from sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems and fuel cell forklifts, leases of fuel cell forklifts (see accounting policy — Fuel Cell Forklift Lease Income with Customers) and provision of material handling operation services.

Sales of hydrogen fuel cell systems and fuel cell forklifts

The Company generates revenue from sales of fuel cell forklifts and hydrogen fuel cell systems. The terms of pricing and payment stipulated in the contract are fixed.

Other services

The Company is engaged by customers to provide technical consulting services over a predetermined period. The services are one-off services. The transaction price is fixed. One performance obligation is identified in the contract with customers, because all activities provided are input to a combined output requested by the customers. The customers simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s technical consulting services, the Company recognize revenues over period using input method.

Contract assets and contract liabilities

The Company classifies its right to consideration in exchange for services transferred to a customer as either a receivable or a contract asset. A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional as compared to a contract asset which is a right to consideration that is conditional upon factors other than the passage of time. The Company recognizes accounts receivable in its combined and consolidated balance sheets when it performs a service in advance of receiving consideration and it has the unconditional right to receive consideration. A contract asset is recorded when the Company has transferred services to the customer before payment is received or is due, and the Company’s right to consideration is conditional on future performance or other factors in the contract. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no contract assets.

The Company capitalizes incremental costs incurred to fulfill contracts that (i) relate directly to the contract, (ii) are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy the performance obligation under the contract, and (iii) are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contract. The compensation expenses of workforce in relation with assembling equipment for hydrogen production plants and refueling stations are considered incremental costs to fulfill the contracts. These contract costs are recorded as cost of revenue upon the recognition of the related revenue. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the current contract estimates. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had deferred contract costs of $23,882 and $314,399, respectively.

Contract liabilities are recorded when consideration is received from the consumers prior to the fulfilment of performance obligation. The Company had contract liabilities with third parties of $228,842 and $46,480 as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Contract liabilities with third parties of $236,022 as of December 31, 2022 were recognized as revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023. Contract liabilities with third parties of $46,480 as of December 31, 2023 were recognized as revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Value Added Tax

The Company is subject to a VAT of 13% for its equipment and forklifts, and 6% for its services. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rate to the invoiced amount of the product sold. The VIE reports revenue net of PRC’s VAT for all the years presented on the combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues primarily consists of cost of equipment for hydrogen production plants and refueling stations and fuel cell forklifts, lease expenses of fuel cell forklifts, staff cost and other related expenses which are directly attributable to our user orders and the rendering of travel related services and other businesses. These costs are charged to the combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as incurred.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the U.S. GAAP for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.

The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheets date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the combined and consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax basis. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable income to be utilized with prior net operating loss carried forwards. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. The Company does not believe that there was any uncertain tax position as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2024, income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2023 remain open for statutory examination.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of shareholders’ equity, except those due to investments by shareholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to shareholders. For the Company, comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 consisted of net income and unrealized loss from foreign currency translation adjustment.

Earnings per Share

Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary shares outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares or resulted in the issuance of ordinary shares that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations.

Fair Value Measurement

The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the exchange price that would be received from an asset or paid to transfer a liability (as exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, time deposits, accounts receivable, and other current assets, accounts payable, short-term bank borrowings and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments and market rates of interest.

ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

        Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

        Level 2 — Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

        Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company considers the carrying amount of its financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, due from related parties, accounts payables, taxes payable, borrowings from a third party, and other payables, approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 owing to their short-term or present value nature or present value of the assets and liabilities.

Segment Reporting

The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer of the Company who reviews financial information of separate operating segments based on U.S. GAAP. The chief operating

decision maker now reviews results analyzed by customer. This analysis is only presented at the revenue level with no allocation of direct or indirect costs. The Company has determined that it has only two operating segments which were comprised of hydrogen energy solutions and hydrogen commercial applications.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” This pronouncement introduces new disclosure requirements aimed at enhancing transparency in financial reporting by requiring disaggregation of specific income statement expense captions. Under the new guidance, entities are required to disclose a breakdown of certain expense categories, such as: employee compensation; depreciation; amortization, and other material components. The disaggregated information can be presented either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements, often using a tabular format. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, “Codification Improvements — Amendments to Remove References to the Concept Statements” (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 contains amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification that remove references to various FASB Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. In other instances, the references were used in prior Statements to provide guidance in certain topical areas. ASU 2024-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on financial statements requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which is an update to Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments in this update related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application — General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and (2) removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements — codification amendments in response to SEC’s disclosure Update and Simplification initiative which amend the disclosure or presentation requirements of codification subtopic 230-10 Statement of Cash Flows — Overall, 250-10 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — Overall, 260-10 Earnings Per Share — Overall, 270-10 Interim Reporting — Overall, 440-10 Commitments — Overall, 470-10 Debt — Overall, 505-10 Equity — Overall, 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging — Overall, 860-30 Transfers and Servicing — Secured Borrowing and Collateral, 932-235 Extractive Activities — Oil and Gas — Notes to Financial Statements, 946-20 Financial Services — Investment Companies — Investment Company Activities, and 974-10 Real Estate — Real Estate Investment Trusts — Overall. The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of above subtopics. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements or those that must provide financial statements to the SEC for securities purposes without contractual transfer restrictions, the effective date aligns with the date when the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. Early adoption is not allowed. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later from the date of the SEC’s removal.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Recently issued ASUs by the FASB, except for the ones mentioned above, have no material impact on the Company’s combined and consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Concentration and Credit Risk

1)      Credit risk

Assets that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit risk is their carrying amount as at the balance sheet dates. As of December 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents of $1,438,884 were deposited in financial institutions in the PRC, and each bank accounts is insured by the government authority with the maximum limit of RMB500,000 (equivalent $68,500). To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Company primarily places cash and cash equivalent deposits with large financial institutions in China which management believes are of high credit quality and the Company also continually monitors their credit worthiness.

The Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, rates and methods of taxation among other factors.

2)      Foreign currency risk

Substantially all of the Company’s operating activities that were conducted through VIE and related assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the PBOC or other authorized financial institutions at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market.

3)      Concentration risks

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from goods sold and services rendered to customers that are located primarily in China, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances. The Company has a concentration of its receivables with specific customers. As of December 31, 2024, three third party customers accounted for 46.7%, 14.8% and 13.2% of accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, three third party customers accounted for 51.2%, 36.0% and 12.0% of accounts receivable, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, two customers accounted for 29.1% and 18.1% of revenues generated from third parties, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 33.3% and 31.3% of revenues, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024, three suppliers accounted for 30.7%, 15.1% and 12.4% of accounts payable due to third parties, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, four suppliers accounted for 57.7%, 21.1% and 12.1% of accounts payable due to third parties, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, two suppliers accounted for 19.1% and 12.1% of purchases, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, two suppliers accounted for 68.5% and 11.1% of purchases, respectively.

NOTE 7 — OPERATING LEASE

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had four office spaces lease arrangements with third party lessors under non-cancelable operating leases, with terms ranging between 24 months through 36 months. The Company considers those renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the determination of the lease term and initial measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Lease expense for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, the Company’s lease does not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company discount lease payments based on an estimate of the incremental borrowing rate.

For operating leases that include rent holidays and rent escalation clauses, the Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term from the date it takes possession of the leased property. The Company records the straight-line lease expense and any contingent rent, if applicable, in general and administrative expenses on the combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

The lease agreement does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

In addition, the Company also had staff dormitory lease arrangements with third party lessors. The lease terms of these arrangements were within 12 months. For short-term leases, the Company records operating lease expense in its combined and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term and record variable lease payments as incurred.

PRC

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of the PRC enacted an Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT Law”), under which Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIEs”) and domestic companies would be subject to EIT at a uniform rate of 25%. The EIT law became effective on January 1, 2008. The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are subject to PRC income tax, which is computed according to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC. Under the Corporate Income Tax Law of PRC, current corporate income tax rate of 25% is applicable to all PRC companies, including both domestic and foreign-invested companies.

Jiaxing Qingyuan, Beijing Yixun, Jiaxing Yixun and Ningdong Yixun are qualified as small and micro-sized enterprises (“SMEs”) for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $3,371,404 from its subsidiaries in the PRC, which expire starting in 2028. The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements at end of each reporting period by reviewing all available evidence, both positive and negative, and considering whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. When circumstances cause a change in management’s judgement about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in income from operations. The future realization of the tax benefit of an existing deductible temporary difference ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character within the carryforward period available under applicable tax law. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company provided valuation allowance of $835,070 and $489,392, respectively, against the deferred tax assets based upon management’s assessment as to their realization.

Uncertain tax position

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the combined and consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2024, income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2019 through 2023 remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

The uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. Based on the outcome of any future examinations, or as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns, might materially change from those recorded as liabilities for uncertain tax positions in the Company’s combined and consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. In addition, the outcome of these examinations may impact the valuation of certain deferred tax assets (such as net operating losses) in future periods. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases to its liability for unrecognized tax benefit within the next twelve months.

NOTE 10 — INCOME TAXES (cont.)

According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of income taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer. The statute of limitations will be extended to five years under special circumstances, which are not clearly defined, but an underpayment of income tax liability exceeding RMB100,000 (approximately $13,700) is specifically listed as a special circumstance. In the case of a transfer pricing related adjustment, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The tax authority of the PRC Government conducts periodic and ad hoc tax filing reviews on business enterprises operating in the PRC after those enterprises have completed their relevant tax filings. Therefore, the Company’s PRC entities’ tax filings results are subject to change. It is therefore uncertain as to whether the PRC tax authority may take different views about the Company’s PRC entities’ tax filings, which may lead to additional tax liabilities.

ASC 740 requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. The Company’s management has evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that provision for uncertainty in income taxes was not necessary as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

NOTE 12 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Ordinary shares

The authorized share capital is 500,000,000 ordinary shares of par value of US$0.0001 per share.

On June 7, 2024, the Company issued 300,000,000 shares of ordinary shares, at par value of $0.0001 per share, to all existing shareholders on a pro rata basis. The issuance was considered as being part of the reorganization of the Company and was retroactively applied as if the transaction occurred at the beginning of the period presented. No cash or other consideration was paid for the issuance of 300,000,000 ordinary shares. All the existing shareholders and directors of the Company consider this share issuance was part of the Company’s reorganization to result in 300,000,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding prior to completion of this offering.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had 300,000,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Restricted net assets

The Company’s ability to pay dividends is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiaries. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC only out of its retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations and after it has met the PRC requirements for appropriation to statutory reserves. Paid in capital of the PRC subsidiaries included in the Company’s combined and consolidated net assets are also non-distributable for dividend purposes. The results of operations reflected in the accompanying combined and consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the PRC subsidiaries. The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds until such reserve funds reach 50% of its registered capital. In addition, the Company’s PRC subsidiary may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to enterprise expansion fund and staff bonus and welfare fund at its discretion. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s PRC subsidiaries set aside statutory reserves of $19,169 and $57,880, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had net assets restricted in the aggregate, which include paid-in capital and statutory reserves of the PRC subsidiaries that are included in the Company’s combined and consolidated net assets, of $9,004,094 and $5,400,101, respectively.

NOTE 13 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company’s organizational structure is based on a number of factors that the CODM uses to evaluate, view and run its business operations which include, but not limited to, customer base, homogeneity of service and technology. The Company’s operating segments are based on such organizational structure and information reviewed by the CODM to evaluate the operating segment results. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that it has two operating segments: (i) hydrogen energy solutions, and (ii) hydrogen commercial applications.

the form of loans, advances or cash dividends without the consent of a third party.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The Company’s investment in subsidiary is stated at cost plus equity in undistributed earnings of subsidiaries.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, and for the period from April 27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023 , and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 203, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, and for the period from April 27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND

Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on April 27, 2023. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Although there is no restriction or limitation on what industry its target operates in, it is the Company’s intention to pursue prospective targets that are focused on healthcare innovation. The Company anticipates targeting what are traditionally known as “small cap” companies domiciled in North America, Europe and/or the Asia Pacific regions that are developing assets in the biopharmaceutical, medical technology/medical device and diagnostics space which aligns with its management team’s experience in operating health care companies and in drug and device technology development as well as diagnostic and other services.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activities through December 31, 2024 related to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). Since the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates. The Company will not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash in bank and assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

The Company’s sponsor is Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 30, 2023. On December 6, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, which includes full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option of 900,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000 (the “Initial Public Offering”), and incurring offering costs of $2,070,665 and $690,000 for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 7). The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, if any. On December 6, 2023, the over-allotment option was exercised in full.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 332,000 units (the “Private Units”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $3,320,000 (the “Private Placement”). (see Note 4).

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 6, 2023, an amount of $69,690,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States and held as cash items or may be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes and bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a business combination, or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of its initial business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed business combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a business combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of how they vote for the business combination. If a vote is held to approve such an initial business combination, the Company will consummate such initial business combination only if the Company has the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company.

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (cont.)

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.10 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a business combination with respect to the Company’s rights.

If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which regulate issuer tender offers, and file tender offer documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to completing its initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules.

The Sponsor has agreed (i) to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed business combination, (ii) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or any amendment to the Company’s charter prior to the consummation of its initial business combination and (iii) not to sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with any proposed business combination. However, the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its business combination.

The Company initially had 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination by up to 12 additional months through 12 one-month extensions of time, as further provided in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining holders of ordinary shares and its board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law.

The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the offering price per Unit ($10.00).

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.10 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under its indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations and therefore believes the Sponsor will be unlikely to satisfy its indemnification obligations if it is required to do so. However, the Company believes the likelihood of the Sponsor having to indemnify the Trust Account is limited

because the Company will endeavor to have all vendors and prospective target businesses as well as other entities execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

On June 19, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) for a business combination with (i) United Hydrogen Group Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“United Hydrogen”), (ii) United Hydrogen Global Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Pubco”), (iii) United Hydrogen Victor Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“First Merger Sub”); (iv) United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Second Merger Sub” and, together with Pubco and First Merger Sub, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity” and, collectively, the “Acquisition Entities”); and (v) Aimei Investment Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, in the capacity as, from and after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), the representative for the Company and its shareholders (the “Sponsor”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) First Merger Sub will merge with and into the United Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), whereby the separate existence of First Merger Sub will cease, and United Hydrogen will be the surviving corporation of the First Merger and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; and (ii) following confirmation of the effective filing of the First Merger, and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, Second Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), whereby the separate existence of Second Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will be the surviving corporation of the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco.

On February 6, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement with Continental Stock Transfer & Trusts Company (“Trustee”). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the amount of funds to be deposited into the trust account managed by the Trustee (the “Trust Account”) in connection with extending the timeframe within which the Company must consummate its initial business combination (“Extension”), is adjusted from $0.033 per each share sold in its IPO (the “Public Share”) (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension).

As of the date of this report, the Company has extended four times by an additional one month each time, and so it now has until April 6, 2025 to consummate a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate its initial business combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, must deposit into the Trust Account $150,000 on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On each of December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Company has deposited $227,700 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until February 6, 2025. On each of February 6, 2025 and March 6, 2025, the Company has deposited in an amount of $150,000 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until April 6, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $28,208 in its bank account, $73,784,549 in its Trust Account and working capital deficit of $747,377.

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through (i) the payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to cover certain offering costs on the Company’s behalf in exchange for issuance of Founder Shares (see Note 5), and (ii) a loan from the Sponsor of approximately $210,151 under the Note (as defined in Note 5). The Company has repaid the note in full on December 7, 2023. Subsequent to the

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (cont.)

consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5). As of December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

Over the period of time to complete a business combination, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

Going Concern Consideration

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the requirement that the Company cease all operations, redeem the Public Shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

These accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.

The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed as of the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the cash balance was $28,208 and $580,717, respectively.

Cash held in Trust Account

On July 16, 2024, the Company instructed their trust custodian to liquidate their positions in marketable securities and invest 100% of the trust account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. As of December 31, 2024, all the assets held in the Trust Account were held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. As of December 31, 2023, substantially all the assets held in the Trust Account were held in U.S. Treasury Bills. The Company accounts for its marketable securities under ASC 320, where securities are presented at fair value on the balance sheets and with gains or losses, if any, presented on the statements of operations. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the assets held in Trust Account was $73,784,549 and $69,889,848, respectively.

Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

All of the 6,900,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that currently, the Company will not redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (shareholders’ equity) to be less than $5,000,001. However, the threshold in its charter would not change the nature of the underlying shares as redeemable and thus Public Shares would be required to be disclosed outside of permanent equity. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 6,900,000 and 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at the redemption amount, respectively, were presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheets.

Income taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” (“ASC 740”) which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and no amounts were accrued for interest and penalties during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, there was no provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Net income per share

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted loss per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and rights issued as components of the Private Units (the “Private Rights”) since the issuance of shares underlying the rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per ordinary share:

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, $0 and $330,717 was not insured, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1 —

 

defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

   

Level 2 —

 

defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

   

Level 3 —

 

defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Related parties

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if either the Company or the other party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or significant influence.

Recent issued accounting standards

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker (“CODM”), as well as

F-43

Table of Contents

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On December 6, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 Units (including the issuance of 900,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its over-allotment option), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right (“Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, so the holder must hold rights in multiples of 5 in order to receive shares for all of the rights upon closing of a business combination.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 332,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit ($3,320,000 in the aggregate).

The proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be added to the net proceeds from the Offering held in the Trust Account. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except that Private Units (including the Private Rights) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination except to permitted transferees. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Rights will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

Prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the company, the shares have been retroactively adjusted. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).

Subject to certain limited exceptions, the initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell their founder shares until six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to initial business combination, the Company consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On May 1, 2023, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $750,000, to be used for payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering. The Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, or (iii) the date on which the Company determines to not proceed with the Initial Public Offering. These amounts were repaid upon completion of the Initial Public Offering out of the $550,000 of Initial Public Offering proceeds that has been allocated for the payment of Initial Public Offering expenses. As of December 6, 2023, the Company has borrowed $210,151 under the Note. The Note was fully repaid on December 7, 2023. There was no outstanding balance due as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Extensions Loan — Related Party

The Company will have to consummate a business combination by April 6, 2025. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a business combination within 12 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to twelve times by an additional one month each time to complete a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, both as amended, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a business combination, the Sponsor its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account the applicable extension fees, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each extension. The Sponsor or its affiliates or designees will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so. Such notes would either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or at the lender’s discretion, converted upon consummation of the business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit.

On December 11, 2024, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $227,700 to the Sponsor and United Hydrogen, pursuant to which such amount had been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until January 6, 2025. The notes are non-interest bearing and are payable upon the closing of a business combination. In addition, the notes may be converted, at the lender’s discretion, into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the note payable balance was $227,700 and $0, respectively.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. 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. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no amount outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

Due to a related company

NOTE 6 — SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Ordinary Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On May 1, 2023, The Company entered into a subscription agreement for founder shares with the Sponsor which is recorded as subscription receivable. The subscription agreement was amended and restated on May 24, 2023. Prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor pursuant to a securities subscription agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the Company, the shares having been retroactively adjusted. As of May 8, 2023, $25,000 was included as a subscription receivable. On September 15, 2023, the Company received $25,000 in cash. The Sponsor transferred 152,000 of those ordinary shares among the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and three independent director nominees at their original purchase price pursuant to executed securities assignment agreements, effective as of May 25, 2023. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 6 — SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (cont.)

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as a result of the closing of the Initial Public Offering and full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, there were 2,126,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.

Rights

Each holder of a right will receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a business combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a business combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a business combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary share will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive 1/5th of one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash to settle the rights. If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

The holders of the insider shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any securities issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that the Company register such securities at any time after the Company consummates a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a business combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The initial shareholders and their permitted transferees can demand that the Company register the founder shares, the Private Units and the underlying Private Shares, and the units issuable upon conversion of working capital loans and the underlying ordinary shares and rights, pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after consummation of an initial business combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the Initial Public Offering may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a business combination; provided that any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the Initial Public Offering may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement.

Representative Shares

The Company issued 69,000 ordinary shares to the representative (and/or its designees) (the “representative shares”) as part of representative compensation as the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full. The representative shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days

Underwriter Agreement

The underwriters purchased 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments.

The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of: (i) two percent (2.00%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $1,380,000 as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of one percent (1.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $690,000 as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full upon closing of the business combination. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a business combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the Company has paid the representative of the underwriters, at the closing of the Initial Public Offering, 1.00% of the gross proceeds in the Company’s ordinary shares or 69,000 ordinary shares as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full.

Right of First Refusal

For a period beginning on the closing of the Initial Public Offering and ending 12 months from the closing of a business combination, the Company has granted Spartan Capital Securities, LLC, a right of first refusal to act as the sole investment banker, sole book running manager and/or sole placement agent for any and all future private or public equity, equity-linked, convertible and debt offerings during such period. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering.

NOTE 8 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.

When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics, which includes general and administrative expenses and interest earned on assets held in Trust Account which are included in the accompanying statements of operations.

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are earned on assets held in Trust Account and general and administrative expenses. The CODM reviews earned on assets held in Trust Account to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.

The Company anticipates targeting what are traditionally known as “small cap” companies domiciled in North America, Europe and/or the Asia Pacific regions that are developing assets in the biopharmaceutical, medical technology/medical device and diagnostics space which aligns with its management team’s experience in operating health care companies and in drug and device technology development as well as diagnostic and other services.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activities through June 30, 2025 related to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). Since the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s activity has been limited to the costs in pursuit of the consummation of an initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash in bank and assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

The Company’s sponsor is Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 30, 2023. On December 6, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, which includes full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option of 900,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000 (the “Initial Public Offering”), and incurring offering costs of $2,070,665 and $690,000 for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 7). The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, if any. On December 6, 2023, the over-allotment option was exercised in full.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 332,000 units (the “Private Units”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $3,320,000 (the “Private Placement”). (see Note 4).

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 6, 2023, an amount of $69,690,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States and held as cash items or may be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes and bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a business combination, or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of its initial business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed business combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a business combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of how they vote for the business combination. If a vote is held to approve such an initial business combination, the Company will consummate such initial business combination only if the Company has the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (cont.)

The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.10 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a business combination with respect to the Company’s rights.

If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which regulate issuer tender offers, and file tender offer documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to completing its initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules.

The Sponsor has agreed (i) to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed business combination, (ii) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or any amendment to the Company’s charter prior to the consummation of its initial business combination and (iii) not to sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with any proposed business combination. However, the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its business combination.

The Company initially had 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination by up to 12 additional months through 12 one-month extensions of time, as further provided in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining holders of ordinary shares and its board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law.

The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the offering price per Unit ($10.00).

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.10 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under its indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations and therefore believes the Sponsor will be unlikely to satisfy its indemnification obligations if it is required to do so. However, the

F-55

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (cont.)

Company believes the likelihood of the Sponsor having to indemnify the Trust Account is limited because the Company will endeavor to have all vendors and prospective target businesses as well as other entities execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

On June 19, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) for a business combination with (i) United Hydrogen Group Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“United Hydrogen”), (ii) United Hydrogen Global Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Pubco”), (iii) United Hydrogen Victor Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“First Merger Sub”); (iv) United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Second Merger Sub” and, together with Pubco and First Merger Sub, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity” and, collectively, the “Acquisition Entities”); and (v) Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company, in the capacity as, from and after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), the representative for the Company and its shareholders (the “Sponsor”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) First Merger Sub will merge with and into the United Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), whereby the separate existence of First Merger Sub will cease, and United Hydrogen will be the surviving corporation of the First Merger and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; and (ii) following confirmation of the effective filing of the First Merger, and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, Second Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), whereby the separate existence of Second Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will be the surviving corporation of the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco.

On February 5, 2025, in connection with the stockholders vote at the Company’s previous adjourned extraordinary general meeting (“Adjourned Meeting”), 2,904,267 shares were redeemed by certain shareholders at a price of approximately $10.77 per share, including interest generated and extension payments deposited in the Trust Account, in an aggregate amount of approximately $31.27 million.

On February 6, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement with Continental Stock Transfer & Trusts Company (“Trustee”). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the amount of funds to be deposited into the Trust Account in connection with extending the timeframe within which the Company must consummate its initial business combination (“Extension”), is adjusted from $0.033 per Public Share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension).

As of the date of these unaudited financial statements issued, the Company has extended ten times by an additional one month each time, and so it now has until October 6, 2025 to consummate a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement between the Company and the Trustee, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate its initial business combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, must deposit into the Trust Account a monthly extension fee on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700, respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until February 6, 2025. On February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025 and September 5, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the third through tenth monthly extension fee of $150,000, respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until October 6, 2025. The deposit of the first through tenth monthly extension fee is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note. The first and second monthly extension promissory notes are in the principal amount of $227,700 each, shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($113,850 each). The third through tenth monthly extension promissory notes are in the principal amount of $150,000, also shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($75,000 each).

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (cont.)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $2,138 in its bank account, $44,511,399 in its Trust Account and working capital deficit of $2,169,328.

The Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5). As of June 30, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

Over the period of time to complete a business combination, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

Going Concern Consideration

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the requirement that the Company cease all operations, redeem the Public Shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

These accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial statements and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2025 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future periods.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

F-57

Table of Contents

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.

The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of estimates

The preparation of unaudited financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed as of the date of the unaudited financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the cash balance was $2,138 and $28,208, respectively.

Cash held in trust account

On July 16, 2024, the Company instructed their trust custodian to liquidate their positions in marketable securities and invest 100% of the trust account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all the assets held in the Trust Account were held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. Interest earned is included in the interest earning on assets held in trust in the accompanying statements of operations. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the assets held in the Trust Account was $44,511,399 and $73,784,549, respectively.

Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

All of the 6,900,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although the Company did not specify a maximum

F-58

Table of Contents

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

redemption threshold, its charter provides that currently, the Company will not redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (shareholders’ equity) to be less than $5,000,001. However, the threshold in its charter would not change the nature of the underlying shares as redeemable and thus Public Shares would be required to be disclosed outside of permanent equity. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 3,995,733 and 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at the redemption amount, respectively, were presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s unaudited balance sheets.

Income taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” (“ASC 740”) which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the unaudited financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the unaudited financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and no amounts were accrued for interest and penalties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, there was no provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Net income per share

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted loss per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and rights issued as components of the Private Units (the “Private Rights”) since the issuance of shares underlying the rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per ordinary share:

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no amount was not insured, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1

 

 

defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

F-60

Table of Contents

AIMEI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

Level 2

 

 

defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

   

Level 3

 

 

defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Related parties

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if either the Company or the other party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or significant influence.

Recent issued accounting standards

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited financial statements.

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On December 6, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 Units (including the issuance of 900,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its over-allotment option), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right (“Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, so the holder must hold rights in multiples of 5 in order to receive shares for all of the rights upon closing of a business combination.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 332,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit ($3,320,000 in the aggregate).

The proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be added to the net proceeds from the Offering held in the Trust Account. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except that Private Units (including the Private Rights) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination except to permitted transferees. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Rights will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

Prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the company, the shares have been retroactively adjusted. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).

Subject to certain limited exceptions, the initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell their founder shares until six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to initial business combination, the Company consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Extensions Loan — Related Party

The Company will have to consummate a business combination by October 6, 2025. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a business combination within 12 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to twelve times by an additional one month each time to complete a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and the Trustee, both as amended, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a business combination, the Sponsor its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account the applicable extension fees, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each extension. The Sponsor or its affiliates or designees will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company

is unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so. Such notes would either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or at the lender’s discretion, converted upon consummation of the business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit.

On each of December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $227,700 to the Sponsor and United Hydrogen, pursuant to which such amount had been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until February 6, 2025. On February 6, 2025, the Company entered into the Trust Agreement Amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement with the Trustee. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the amount of funds to be deposited into the Trust Account in connection with the Extension, is adjusted from $0.033 per each share sold in its IPO (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $150,000 for all outstanding Public Shares (for each monthly extension). On each of February 6, 2025, March 6, 2025, April 4, 2025, May 6, 2025, June 6, 2025, July 6, 2025, August 6, 2025 and September 5, 2025, the Company issue an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $150,000 to the Sponsor and United Hydrogen, pursuant to which such amount had been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until October 6, 2025. These notes are non-interest bearing and are payable upon the closing of a business combination. In addition, the notes may be converted, at the lender’s discretion, into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the note payable balance was $1,205,400 and $227,700, respectively.

Working Capital Loan — Related Party

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. 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. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no amount outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.

Due to a related company

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had a total amount due to related company of $699,469 and $289,780 from a related party, respectively, for the payment of costs related to general and administrative services, the Initial Public Offering and administrative services agreement. The balance is unsecured, interest-free and has no fixed terms of repayment.

Administrative Services Arrangement

The Sponsor has agreed, commencing from the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a business combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months, as provided in the Company’s registration statement, for such administrative services. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the unpaid balance was $180,000 and $120,000, respectively, which is included in amount due to related company balance.

NOTE 6 — SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Ordinary Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On May 1, 2023, The Company entered into a subscription agreement for founder shares with the Sponsor which is recorded as subscription receivable. The subscription agreement was amended and restated on May 24, 2023. Prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor pursuant to a securities subscription agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the Company, the shares having been retroactively adjusted. As of May 8, 2023, $25,000 was included as a subscription receivable. On September 15, 2023, the Company received $25,000 in cash. The Sponsor transferred 152,000 of those ordinary shares among the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and three independent director nominees at their original purchase price pursuant to executed securities assignment agreements, effective as of May 25, 2023. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).

On February 5, 2025, in connection with the stockholders vote at the Adjourned Meeting, 2,904,267 shares were redeemed by certain shareholders at a price of approximately $10.77 per share, including interest generated and extension payments deposited in the Trust Account, in an aggregate amount of approximately $31.27 million.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, as a result of the closing of the Initial Public Offering and full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, there were 2,126,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 3,995,733 and 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively.

Rights

Each holder of a right will receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a business combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a business combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a business combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary share will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive 1/5th of one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

NOTE 6 — SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (cont.)

Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash to settle the rights. If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

The holders of the insider shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any securities issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that the Company register such securities at any time after the Company consummates a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a business combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The initial shareholders and their permitted transferees can demand that the Company register the founder shares, the Private Units and the underlying Private Shares, and the units issuable upon conversion of working capital loans and the underlying ordinary shares and rights, pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after consummation of an initial business combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the Initial Public Offering may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a business combination; provided that any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the Initial Public Offering may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement.

Representative Shares

The Company issued 69,000 ordinary shares to the representative (and/or its designees) (the “representative shares”) as part of representative compensation as the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full. The representative shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering 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 date of the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their officers, partners, registered persons or affiliates.

Underwriter Agreement

The underwriters purchased 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments.

The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of: (i) two percent (2.00%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $1,380,000 as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of one percent (1.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $690,000 as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full upon closing of the business combination. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a business combination from the amounts held in the Trust

Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the Company has paid the representative of the underwriters, at the closing of the Initial Public Offering, 1.00% of the gross proceeds in the Company’s ordinary shares or 69,000 ordinary shares as the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full.

Right of First Refusal

For a period beginning on the closing of the Initial Public Offering and ending 12 months from the closing of a business combination, the Company has granted Spartan Capital Securities, LLC, a right of first refusal to act as the sole investment banker, sole book running manager and/or sole placement agent for any and all future private or public equity, equity-linked, convertible and debt offerings during such period. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering.

NOTE 8 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report in their unaudited financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.

When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews key metrics, which includes formation and operating costs and interest and dividend earned on investments held in Trust Account which are included in the accompanying unaudited statements of operations.

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are earned on investments held in Trust Account and formation and operating costs. The CODM reviews earned on investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. Formation and operating costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews formation and operating costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.

NOTE 9 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, the Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date the unaudited financial statements were issued.

On July 6, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in an amount of $150,000 to the Sponsor and United Hydrogen, pursuant to which such amount had been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until August 6, 2025.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)

1.    ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

United Hydrogen Global Inc. (“Pubco”, or the “Company”) was incorporated as a private company under the laws of Cayman Island on May 23, 2024.

The Company was formed for the purpose of becoming the ultimate parent company in the United Hydrogen Group Inc. (“United Hydrogen”) following the transactions contemplated in the business combination agreement, dated June 19, 2024 (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, United Hydrogen, and Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd (“AFJK”), a special purpose acquisition company. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had no assets, liabilities, or operations.

On June 3, 2024, the Company set up two direct wholly owned subsidiaries, United Hydrogen Victor Limited (“First Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exemption company, and United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited (“Second Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exemption company. The First Merger Sub and the Second Merger Sub were both incorporated to facilitate the consummation of the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), (a) the First Merger Sub will merge with and into United Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (b) the Second Merger Sub will merge with and into AFJK (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with AFJK surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Aimei Health being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco (the Mergers together with the share exchange and other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and other ancillary documents, the “Transactions” or “Business Combination”).

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)    Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

(b)    Fair value of financial instruments

The Company’s financial instruments are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1 —

 

inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

   

Level 2 —

 

inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

   

Level 3 —

 

inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

(c)     Transaction costs in an offering of equity securities

In the event of offering of equity securities, incremental costs that otherwise would not have been incurred are deferred and capitalized in the balance sheet as deferred offering costs which will be later deducted against additional paid-in capital upon completion of offering of equity securities.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

(d)    Income taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the other tax jurisdictions. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

(e)     Recent accounting standards

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, applies to all entities subject to income taxes. For public business entities (PBEs), the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities (non-PBEs), the requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2023-09 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

3.    EQUITY

The Company’s authorized share capital is 500,000,000 common stocks, par value $0.0001 per share. On May 23, 2024, the Company issued 1 common stock to its shareholder. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 1 outstanding common stock.

4.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated the subsequent event through the date of this report, and concluded that there are no material reportable subsequent events need to be disclosed.

Until so surrendered, each such Purchaser Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares as calculated pursuant to Section 2.2 (as evidenced by the Purchaser Certificate).

(e)         Each Company Shareholder shall be entitled to receive such number of Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares or Pubco Class B Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but subject to the delivery to the Exchange Agent of the following items prior thereto: (i) the certificate(s), if any, representing such Company Shares (“Company Certificates” and together with the Purchaser Certificates, the “Shareholder Certificates” (or a Lost Certificate Affidavit)) and (ii) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (if required) (the documents to be submitted to the Exchange Agent pursuant to this sentence and the first sentence of Section 3.2(d), as applicable, may be referred to herein collectively as the “Transmittal Documents”).

Any Lost Certificate Affidavit properly executed and delivered in accordance with this Section 3.2(g) shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be treated as a Shareholder Certificate for all purposes of this Agreement. Pubco or its Exchange Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Pubco with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(i)          All securities issued upon the surrender of Shareholder Certificates (or delivery of a Lost Certificate Affidavit) in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to Purchaser Ordinary Shares or Company Shares, as applicable, represented by such Shareholder Certificates, provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of such Company Shares or Purchaser Ordinary Shares shall also apply to the Pubco Ordinary Shares so issued in exchange, as applicable. Any portion of the Pubco Ordinary Shares made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 3.2(b) that remains unclaimed by Purchaser Shareholders or Company Shareholders one year after the Effective Time shall be returned to Pubco, upon demand, and any such Purchaser Shareholder or Company Shareholder, as applicable, who has not exchanged its Purchaser Ordinary Shares or Company Shares, as applicable, for the applicable portion of Pubco Ordinary Shares in accordance with this Section 3.2 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Pubco for payment of the applicable Pubco Ordinary Shares, without any interest thereon (but with any dividends paid with respect thereto).

Such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of Pubco.

3.3         Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser, Pubco, the Company, and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, any amount required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Law; provided, that if Pubco or any party acting on its behalf determines that any payment hereunder is subject to deduction and/or withholding, then Pubco shall (a) provide written notice to the recipient of such payment as soon as reasonably practicable after such determination and (b) consult and cooperate with the recipient of such payment reasonably and in good faith to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Government Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Any amounts so withheld shall be timely remitted to the applicable Government Authority.

ARTICLE X
WAIVERS AND RELEASES

10.1       Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Reference is made to the IPO Prospectus. The Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that Purchaser has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment shares acquired by Purchaser’s underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Purchaser’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Purchaser’s underwriters) (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, Purchaser may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their shares of Purchaser Ordinary Shares (or Pubco Ordinary Shares upon the Merger) in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (the “Business Combination”) or in connection with an amendment to Purchaser’s Organizational documents to extend Purchaser’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if Purchaser fails to consummate a Business Combination within nine (9) months after the closing of the IPO (provided such date may be extended by up to an additional twelve (12) months), subject to further extension by amendment to Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any franchise or income taxes, and (d) to Purchaser after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of Purchaser entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub hereby agree on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub nor any of their respective Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between Purchaser or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger, or any Seller or any of their respective Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”) provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.1 shall be deemed to (a) limit the Company’s and its Affiliates’ right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of being a Public Shareholder, including the redemption rights described in the Prospectus or (b) limit or prohibit any claims that the Company or any of its Affiliate may have in the future pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Documents against Purchaser’ assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account other than pursuant to the redemption rights of the Public Shareholders described in the Prospectus). Each of the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Purchaser or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions to Public Shareholders) for any Released Claims; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing waiver will not limit or prohibit the Company from pursuing a claim against Purchaser or any other person (other than Public Shareholders with respect to funds released from the Trust Account pursuant to the Redemption), in each case for (i) legal relief against monies or other assets of Purchaser held outside of the Trust Account including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account (and any assets that have been purchased

Annex A-59

Table of Contents

or acquired with any such funds other than distributions therefrom to its public shareholders); (ii) specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions, provided that (x) such claim is permitted pursuant to Section 11.7 and (y) the Company shall not be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce the release or other distribution of funds from the Trust Account; such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Purchaser and its Affiliates to induce Purchaser to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any Released Claim, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Purchaser or its Representatives, each of the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds but excluding any distributions to Public Shareholders) and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behaves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub any of their respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Purchaser or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders in violation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.1, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, Purchaser and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company, Pubco, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, the associated reasonable legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event Purchaser or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This Section 10.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Each person so authorised under the provisions of this Article shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the clearing house (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of such Shares held by the clearing house (or its nominee(s)).

(i)          in the notice convening the meeting; or

If a Member votes on any resolution a vote by his proxy on the same resolution, unless in respect of different Shares, shall be invalid.

13.28.    The instrument appointing a proxy to vote at a meeting shall be deemed also to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll and a demand by a person as proxy for a Member shall be the same as a demand by a Member.

Permissible Interests Subject to Disclosure

21.1.      A Director who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction with the Company shall declare the nature of his interest at a meeting of the Directors. A general notice given to the Directors by any Director to the effect that he is a member of any specified company or firm and is to be regarded as interested in any contract or transaction which may thereafter be made with that company or firm shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of interest in regard to any contract so made or transaction so consummated. Subject to the Designated Stock Exchange Rules and disqualification by the chairman of the relevant Board meeting, a Director may vote in respect of any contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction notwithstanding that he may be interested therein and if he does so his vote shall be counted and he may be counted in the quorum at any meeting of the Directors at which any such contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction shall come before the meeting for consideration.

21.2.      For the purposes of the preceding Article:

(a)         a general notice that a Director gives to the other Directors that he is to be regarded as having an interest of the nature and extent specified in the notice in any transaction or arrangement in which a specified person or class of persons is interested shall be deemed to be a disclosure that he has an interest in or duty in relation to any such transaction of the nature and extent so specified; and

(b)         an interest of which a Director has no knowledge and of which it is unreasonable to expect him to have knowledge shall not be treated as an interest of his.

(a)         a general notice that a Director gives to the other Directors that he is to be regarded as having an interest of the nature and extent specified in the notice in any transaction or arrangement in which a specified person or class of persons is interested shall be deemed to be a disclosure that he has an interest in or duty in relation to any such transaction of the nature and extent so specified; and

(i)          the fact that publication of the documents has been published on the website;

(ii)         the address of the website;

(iii)        the place on the website where the documents may be accessed; and

(iv)        how they may be accessed.

23.4.      If, for any reason, a person notifies the Company that he is unable to access the website, the Company must, as soon as practicable, send the documents to that person by any other means permitted by these Articles. This, however, will not affect when that person is taken to have received the documents under the next Article.

(b)         the person is given at least five Clear Days’ notice of the meeting.

Validity Despite Accidental Error in Publication on Website

23.6.      If, for the purpose of a meeting, documents are sent by being published on a website in accordance with the preceding Articles, the proceedings at that meeting are not invalidated merely because:

(a)         those documents are, by accident, published in a different place on the website to the place notified; or

Annex B-35

Table of Contents

Payment of Interim Dividends and Declaration of Final Dividends by Directors

26.2.      The Directors may pay interim dividends or declare final dividends in accordance with the respective rights of the Members if it appears to them that they are justified by the financial position of the Company and that such dividends may lawfully be paid.

26.3.      Subject to the provisions of the Law, in relation to the distinction between interim dividends and final dividends, the following applies:

(a)         Upon determination to pay a dividend or dividends described as interim by the Directors in the dividend resolution, no debt shall be created by the declaration until such time as payment is made.

(b)         Upon declaration of a dividend or dividends described as final by the Directors in the dividend resolution, a debt shall be created immediately following the declaration, the due date to be the date the dividend is stated to be payable in the resolution.

If the resolution fails to specify whether a dividend is final or interim, it shall be assumed to be interim.

26.4.      In relation to Shares carrying differing rights to dividends or rights to dividends at a fixed rate, the following applies:

(a)         If the share capital is divided into different classes, the Directors may pay dividends on Shares which confer deferred or non-preferred rights with regard to dividends as well as on Shares which confer preferential rights with regard to dividends but no dividend shall be paid on Shares carrying deferred or non-preferred rights if, at the time of payment, any preferential dividend is in arrears.

(b)         The Directors may also pay, at intervals settled by them, any dividend payable at a fixed rate if it appears to them that there are sufficient funds of the Company lawfully available for distribution to justify the payment.

(c)         If the Directors act in good faith, they shall not incur any liability to the Members holding Shares conferring preferred rights for any loss those Members may suffer by the lawful payment of the dividend on any Shares having deferred or non-preferred rights.

Apportionment of Dividends

26.5.      Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to Shares, all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the Shares on which the dividend is paid. All dividends shall be apportioned and paid proportionately to the amount paid up on the Shares during the time or part of the time in respect of which the dividend is paid. If a Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for dividend accordingly.

Right of Set-off

26.6.      The Directors may deduct from a dividend or any other amount payable to a person in respect of a Share any amount due by that person to the Company on a call or otherwise in relation to a Share.

Power to Pay other than in Cash

26.7.      If the Directors so determine, any resolution declaring a dividend may direct that it shall be satisfied wholly or partly by the distribution of assets. If a difficulty arises in relation to the distribution, the Directors may settle that difficulty in any way they consider appropriate. For example, they may do any one or more of the following:

(a)         issue fractional Shares;

(b)         fix the value of assets for distribution and make cash payments to some Members on the footing of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of Members; and

(c)         vest some assets in trustees.

Annex B-36

(b)         by cheque or warrant sent by post to the registered address of the Member holding that Share or other person entitled to that Share.

26.9.      For the purpose of paragraph (a) of the preceding Article, the nomination may be in writing or in an Electronic Record and the bank account nominated may be the bank account of another person. For the purpose of paragraph (b) of the preceding Article, subject to any Applicable Law or applicable regulation, the cheque or warrant shall be made to the order of the Member holding that Share or other person entitled to the Share or to his nominee, whether nominated in writing or in an Electronic Record, and payment of the cheque or warrant shall be a good discharge to the Company.

26.10.    If two or more persons are registered as the holders of the Share or are jointly entitled to it by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the registered holder, a dividend (or other amount) payable on or in respect of that Share may be paid as follows:

(a)         to the registered address of the joint holder of the Share who is named first on the Register of Members or to the registered address of the deceased or bankrupt holder, as the case may be; or

Dividends or Other Moneys not to Bear Interest in Absence of Special Rights

Dividends Unable to Be Paid or Unclaimed

26.13.    If a dividend cannot be paid to a Member or remains unclaimed within six weeks after it was declared or both, the Directors may pay it into a separate account in the Company’s name. If a dividend is paid into a separate account, the Company shall not be constituted trustee in respect of that account and the dividend shall remain a debt due to the Member.

26.14.    A dividend that remains unclaimed for a period of six years after it became due for payment shall be forfeited to, and shall cease to remain owing by, the Company.

27.  Capitalisation of Profits

Capitalisation of Profits or of Any Share Premium Account or Capital Redemption Reserve

(b)         by issuing Fully Paid Shares, debentures or other securities of the Company to that Member or as that Member directs.

Applying An Amount for the Benefit of Members

27.3.      The amount capitalised must be applied to the benefit of Members in the proportions to which the Members would have been entitled to dividends if the amount capitalised had been distributed as a dividend.

Authentication and Filing

either such a member of Management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other.

(h) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of Pubco, the Company, Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative) and Holder. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.

(i) Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

(j) Specific Performance. Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Holder, money damages will be inadequate and Pubco will have no adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each of Pubco, the Company and Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative) shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Holder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

(k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement or any Ancillary Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Pubco, the Company and Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative) or any of the obligations of Holder under any other agreement between Holder and Pubco, the Company or Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative) or any certificate or instrument executed by Holder in favor of Pubco, the Company or Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative), and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Pubco, the Company or Purchaser (as represented by the Purchaser Representative) or any of the obligations of Holder under this Agreement.

Annex F

June 19, 2024

Board of the Directors
Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd.
10 East 53rd Street, Suite 3001
New York, NY 10022

Members of the Board of Directors:

Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company” or “Aimei Health”) has engaged CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Limited. (“CHFT”), to serve to the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of the Company to provide an opinion (the “Opinion”) as of the date hereof as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the Company of the consideration in the contemplated transaction described below (the “Proposed Transaction”).

Background of the Proposed Transaction

We understand that Aimei Health intend to enter into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Agreement”) and plan of merger.

We understand that the Agreement is to be made and entered into by and among (i) Aimei Health (“Purchaser”), (ii) Aimei Investment Ltd, the representative for Purchaser and the shareholders of Purchaser (“Purchaser Representative”), (iii) United Hydrogen Global Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Pubco”), (iv) United Hydrogen Victor Limited., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (“First Merger Sub”), (v) United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Second Merger Sub”), and (vi) United Hydrogen Group Inc.( the “Target” or “United Hydrogen”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, (a) First Meger Sub will merge with and into the United Hydrogen (the “First Merge”), with United Hydrogen surviving the First Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding shares of the United Hydrogen being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco; and (b) Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Purchaser (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Purchaser surviving the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco and the outstanding securities of Purchaser being converted into the right to receive shares of Pubco.

Under the Agreement, the aggregate consideration is One Billion and Five Hundred Million U.S. Dollars ($1,500,000,000) (the “Aggregate Merger Consideration Amount” or “Consideration”), which will be paid entirely in newly issued ordinary shares of Pubco.

Scope of Analysis

In connection with this Opinion, CHFT has made such reviews, analyses and inquiries as it has deemed necessary and appropriate under the circumstances. CHFT also took into account its assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions, as well as its experience in securities and business valuation, in general. CHFT’ procedures, investigations, and financial analysis with respect to the preparation of its Opinion included, but were not limited to, the items summarized below:

1.  Reviewed the following documents:

a.    United Hydrogen’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022;

b.    Contracts of United Hydrogen with major suppliers and customers;

Annex F-1

Table of Contents

c.    Other internal documents relating to the history, current operations, and probable future outlook of the United Hydrogen, including financial projections for the years 2024 through 2026, prepared by the United Hydrogen, updated for current market conditions by Company management, and provided to us by management of the Company (the “Financial Projections”); and

d.    A draft of the Business Combination Agreement.

2.    Discussed with various members of senior management of the United Hydrogen and Company, concerning historical and current operations, financial conditions and Financial Projections of United Hydrogen,

3.    Discussed with senior management of the Company concerning background and other elements of the Proposed Transaction;

4.    Performed certain valuation and comparative analyses using generally accepted valuation and analytical techniques including an analysis of selected public companies that CHFT deemed relevant. CHFT also considered the discounted cash flow method. United Hydrogen’s management, however, was unable to provide financial forecasts for a sufficiently long period of time, so this method was not feasible. CHFT also evaluated the cost approach, but it was deemed unsuitable as it does not capture the future economic benefits of the company’s assets, especially given that United Hydrogen is expected to continue growing in the foreseeable future. The cost approach is typically used for companies that are not expected to operate as going concerns; and

5.    Conducted such other analyses and considered such other factors as we considered appropriate in rendering this opinion.

Assumptions, Qualifications and Limiting Conditions

In our review and analysis and in rendering this opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, completeness and fair presentation of all financial and other information that was provided to us by the Company, Target or that was publicly available to us. This opinion is expressly conditioned upon such information being complete, accurate and fair in all respects material to our analysis.

We have further relied upon the assurance of management of the Target and Company that they are unaware of any facts that would make the information provided to us incomplete or misleading in any respect. Our analyses were based, among other things, on the Financial Projections of the Target furnished to us by senior management of the Target and Company. With respect to the Financial Projections, we note that projecting future results of any company is inherently subject to uncertainty. We express no opinion as to the Financial Projections or the assumptions on which they are based. In addition, in rendering this opinion, we have assumed that the Financial Projections have been reasonably prepared by management and reflect management’s best currently available estimates and good faith judgment of the future competitive, operating and regulatory environment and related financial performance of the Target, and that the Financial Projections and the assumptions derived therefrom provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Although the Financial Projections did not form the principal basis for our opinion, but rather constituted one of many items that we employed, changes to the Financial Projections could affect the opinion rendered herein.

We have prepared this Opinion as of the date hereof. This Opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, market and other conditions as they exist on and the information made available to us as of the date hereof. Although subsequent developments may affect this Opinion, we do not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm this Opinion.

In our review, we did not obtain or receive any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities of, nor did we conduct a comprehensive physical inspection of any of the assets of, the Target, nor have we been furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals or reports of such physical inspections, nor do we assume any responsibility to obtain any such evaluations, appraisals or inspections. Our opinion is based on financial, economic, regulatory, market and other conditions existing. We have made no independent investigation of any legal or accounting matters affecting the Target.

In rendering this opinion we have also assumed that: (i) the final versions of all documents reviewed by us in draft form conform in all material respects to the drafts reviewed; (ii) in all respects material to our analysis that the representations

Annex F-2

Table of Contents

and warranties of each party contained in the Agreement are true and correct, that each party will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under the Agreement and that all conditions to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction will be satisfied without waiver thereof which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the Consideration; (iii) there is not now, and there will not as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement be, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iv) all material assets and liabilities of the Target were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to us by the Company as of the respective dates of such financial statements.

In addition, we were not requested to and did not provide advice concerning the structure, the specific amount of the consideration, or any other aspects of the Proposed Transaction, or to provide services other than the delivery of this opinion. We did not participate in negotiations with respect to the terms of the Proposed Transaction and related transactions. Consequently, we have assumed that such terms are the most beneficial terms from the Company’s perspective that could under the circumstances be negotiated among the parties to such Proposed Transaction.

Our opinion does not address the relative merits of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement as compared to any alternative transactions that might be available to the Company, nor does it address the underlying business decision by the Company to engage in the Proposed Transaction or the terms of the Agreement or the documents referred to therein. Our opinion does not constitute a recommendation as to how any holder of ordinary shares of Company should vote or act on any matter relevant to the Agreement. Our opinion may not be used or referred to by the Company, or quoted or disclosed to any person in any matter, without our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by law, our opinion may be included in the Company’s proxy statement or similar disclosure document with respect to the Proposed Transaction.

Disclosure of Relationships

CHFT will receive a customary fee for the services pursuant to the engagement letter, which will be payable upon delivery of this opinion. The Company has agreed to indemnify CHFT against certain liabilities arising out of or in connection with the services rendered and to be rendered by CHFT under such engagement letter. Except for the aforementioned compensation, CHFT has not received, and will not receive, any other payment or compensation, including any compensation contingent upon the successful consummation of the business combination.

During the two-year period prior to the date of CHFT’s opinion, no material relationship existed between CHFT or its affiliate or unaffiliated representatives and Company or any of its affiliates pursuant to which compensation was received by CHFT. CHFT may seek to provide valuation and consultancy services to the Company, or its respective affiliates in the future, for which CHFT would seek customary compensation. However, any such future relationship is not contemplated.

CHFT is regularly engaged in the valuation and financial assessment of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, recapitalizations, spin-offs, restructurings, securities offerings in both private and public capital markets and valuations for corporate and other purposes.

Conclusion

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, CHFT is of the opinion that as of the date hereof the Consideration being paid in the Proposed Transaction is fair from a financial point of view to the Company.

Yours faithfully,

CHFT Advisory and Appraisal Limited

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against fraud, willful neglect, willful default, or the consequences of committing a crime. Pubco’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that, subject to certain limitations, Pubco will indemnify its directors and officers against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative, or investigative proceedings. Such indemnity shall not apply if the person acted in willful neglect, in willful default, or fraudulently.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is theretofore unenforceable.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

i.       To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

ii.      To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
