On October 6, 2023, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,156,250 shares of common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. On October 18, 2023, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 465,000 Founder Shares to members of the Company’s management, board of directors and senior advisors, resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,691,250 Founder Shares. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 300,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part, so that the Initial Stockholders will collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the IPO (assuming the Initial Stockholders did not purchase any Public Shares in the IPO and excluding the securities underlying the $15 Private Warrants, the Private Units).

 

On August 21, 2024, Company issued a dividend of approximately 0.066 Founder Shares for every issued and outstanding founder share resulting in our initial stockholders holding an aggregate of 2,300,000 Founder Shares, an increase of 143,750 Founder Shares compared to 2,156,250 initial Founder Shares issued.

 

On February 5, 2025, the underwriters elected to terminate their over-allotment option to purchase 1,200,000 IPO Units resulting in Sponsor to forfeit 300,000 Founder Shares. As of June 30, 2026, there were 2,000,000 Founder Shares outstanding.

 

 

The Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of (i) twelve months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, 12 months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their Public Shares for cash, securities or other property. The lock-up restrictions are also subject to early release upon certain liquidation, merger, exchange, or reorganization transactions and automatically expire if the Combined Company Common Stock trades at or above $20.00 per share at any time (including intraday)
