Founder Shares
On April 23, 2024, the Company issued 2,156,250 Class B ordinary shares, or founder shares, par value $0.0001 per share, to its Sponsor for a purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.0116 per share. On November 19, 2024, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option for an additional 1,000,000 Units, reducing the Class B ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to 31,250 shares. On December 9, 2024, the remainder of the over-allotment option to purchase 125,000 Units expired and the 31,250 founder shares were forfeited, resulting in the insiders collectively owning 20.0% of its issued and outstanding shares after the IPO (without giving effect to the sale of the Private Placement Units, the Representative Shares, and assuming our insiders do not purchase Units in the IPO).
On September 11, 2024, the sponsor entered into a securities transfer agreement, pursuant to which the sponsor transferred 100,000 founder shares and 60,000 founder shares to Mr. Will Garner, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, and Ms. Yuanmei Ma, the Company’s former CFO, respectively, for a total consideration of $1,855, or approximately $0.0116 per share. The transfer of the 160,000 founder shares is accounted for as compensation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). The estimated fair value of the 160,000 founder shares totaled $187,200. On September 11, 2024, the Company recognized a share-based compensation expense of $185,345, net of the nominal cash consideration of $1,855 paid by the officers.
On October 24, 2024, the effective date of the registration statement of the IPO, the sponsor transferred an aggregate of 60,000 of its founder shares, or 20,000 each to its three independent directors for their board service, for nominal cash consideration, of $696. The transfer of the 60,000 founder shares is accounted for as compensation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). The estimated fair value of the 60,000 founder shares totaled $65,046. On October 24, 2024, the Company recognized a share-based compensation expense of $64,350, net of the nominal cash consideration of $696 paid by the directors.
The Private Placement shares are identical to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold in the IPO. However, the Company’s insiders have agreed, pursuant to written letter agreements with the Company, (A) to vote their founder shares and Private Placement shares (as well as any public shares acquired in or after the IPO) in favor of any initial business combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s memorandum and articles of association effective at the time that would stop the Company’s public shareholders from redeeming their shares for cash or selling their founder shares and Private Placement shares to the Company in connection with an initial business combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if the Company does not complete an initial business combination by the Combination Deadline, (C) not to redeem any founder shares and Private Placement shares (as well as any other shares acquired in or after the IPO) for cash from the trust account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Company’s proposed an initial business combination (or sell any shares they hold to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a proposed initial business combination) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Company’s memorandum and articles of association effective at the time relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (D) that the founder shares and Private Placement shares shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if an initial business combination is not consummated.
The insiders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until (1) with respect to 50% of the founder shares, the earlier of six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination and the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Company’s initial business combination and (2) with respect to the remaining 50% of the founder shares, six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to the Company’s initial business combination, the Company consummate a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
The Private Placement Units (including the underlying securities) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination (except to certain permitted transferees).

On April 18, 2024, the sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 (the “Promissory Note”) to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The Promissory Note of $273,969 is non-interest bearing, unsecured and is due at the earlier of (1) December 31, 2024 or (2) the date on which the Company consummates an initial public offering. The Promissory Note was repaid upon the closing of the IPO out of the offering proceeds not held in the trust account. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Promissory Note. Following the completion of the IPO, the Promissory Note was no longer available and replaced with the Working Capital Loans (as defined below).
Working Capital Loans
In addition, in order to meet the Company’s working capital needs following the consummation of the initial public offering if the funds not held in the trust account are insufficient, or to extend its life, its insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates/designees may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each loan to meet the Company’s working capital needs would be deposited into the operating account and evidenced by a promissory note. Each loan to extend the Company’s business combination date would be deposited into the trust account and evidenced by a promissory note.

The sponsor has the right, but not the obligation, to convert this loan, in whole or in part, into Private Placement Units of the Company, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share, one right to receive one-eighth of one Class A ordinary share. The number of Private Placement Units to be received by the Sponsor in connection with such conversion shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to the sponsor by (y) $10.00.
