NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any 2021 Note Warrants or 2024 Note Warrants (and in each case, holders of their underlying securities, as applicable) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Class A Ordinary Shares). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. On August 31, 2023, the Sponsor executed a joinder to the Registration Rights Agreement in connection with the Sponsor Handover.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

In connection with the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters were granted a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 30, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 1,240,488 Units pursuant to the partial exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. The Units issued upon the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating aggregate additional gross proceeds of $12,404,880 to the Company.

 

The underwriters of the Initial Public Offering were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 2.00% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $4,000,000 (or $4,600,000 if the Over-Allotment Option was exercised in full). In addition, the underwriters were entitled to a deferred fee of three and half percent (3.50%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $7,000,000 (or $8,050,000 if the Over-Allotment Option was exercised in full).

 

On August 11, 2023 and August 14, 2023, the Company received formal confirmations from Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC of their decisions to waive any entitlement they may have to their deferred underwriting fees payable held in the Trust Account with respect to any Business Combination.

 

Non-Redemption Agreements

 

Between October 9, 2023 and October 19, 2023, the Company entered into agreements with the Sponsor and unaffiliated third-party investors in exchange for such investors agreeing not to redeem an aggregate of 4,998,734 Public Shares in connection with the vote to approve the Charter Amendment Proposals at the 2023 EGM (the “2023 Non-Redemption Agreements”). In exchange for these commitments not to redeem such Public Shares, the Sponsor agreed to transfer to such investors an aggregate of 749,810 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor promptly following the closing of the Business Combination (but no later than two business days after the satisfaction of the requisite conditions to such transfer). The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of the 749,810 Class B Ordinary Shares attributable to such investors to be $3,444,008 or on a weighted average of $4.59 per share, as of October 19, 2023, which is estimated by taking into considerations the estimated probability of the consummation of a Business Combination, estimated concessions and estimated cost of carrying charges to eliminate the investor’s exposure to changes in the price of those Class B Ordinary Shares. The fair value of the Class B Ordinary Shares was determined to be an expense in accordance with SAB 5T.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

Between July 15, 2024 and July 18, 2024, the Company entered into agreements with the Sponsor and unaffiliated third-party investors (the “2024 Non-Redemption Agreements”) in exchange for such investors agreeing not to redeem an aggregate of 2,475,000 Public Shares in connection with the vote to approve the 2024 Extension Amendment Proposal at the 2024 EGM. In exchange for these commitments not to redeem such Public Shares, the Sponsor agreed to transfer to such investors an aggregate of (i) 412,498 Founder Shares for the first five (5) months of the extension of the Combination Period from July 19, 2024 to December 19, 2024 and (ii) 82,498 Founder Shares per month, for each month of the extension of the Combination Period from December 19, 2024 until April 19, 2025, as needed. The Founder Shares to be transferred to such investors pursuant to the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements are held by the Sponsor and are to be transferred in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. In connection with its entry into the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements, the Company agreed that, in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, it will only utilize up to $50,000 of funds from the accrued interest of the Trust Account to pay any dissolution expenses if it does not effect a Business Combination prior to the end of the Combination Period. As of July 15, 2024, the Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these 742,490 Founder Shares at $4,076,270, or approximately $5.49 per share on a weighted-average basis.

 

On May 8, 2025, the Company entered into a non-redemption agreement (the “2025 Non-Redemption Agreement” and collectively with the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements, the “Non-Redemption Agreements”) with the Sponsor and an unaffiliated, third-party investor in exchange for such investor agreeing not to redeem 100,000 Public Shares in connection with the vote to approve the 2025 Extension Amendment Proposal at the 2025 EGM. In exchange for the commitment not to redeem the 100,000 Public Shares, the Sponsor agreed to transfer to such investor (i) 20,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and (ii) an additional 20,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor since the initial Business Combination was not completed by October 19, 2025. As of May 8, 2025, the Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these 40,000 Founder Shares at $223,000, or approximately $5.56 per share on a weighted-average basis. As of December 31, 2025, pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreements, the Sponsor has agreed to transfer 782,490 Class B Ordinary Shares to certain investors on or promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these 782,490 and 742,490 Founder Shares, respectively, at $6,025,173 and $4,028,008, or approximately $7.70 and $5.43 per share, respectively, on a weighted-average basis. The Company considered the estimated probability of the consummation of a Business Combination, estimated concessions and estimated cost of carrying charges to eliminate the investor’s exposure to changes in the price of those Class B Ordinary Shares. The fair value of the Class B Ordinary Shares was determined to be an expense in accordance with SAB 5T and classified as a liability due to the variability in the number of Founder Shares to be transferred, depending on the timing of the Business Combination.
