On June 4, 2025, the Company approved the acquisition by Stone Bay, LLC of an aggregate of 2,424,324 Class B ordinary shares (the "Founder Shares") for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.01 per share, to cover certain of the Company’s offering costs. Up to 527,027 of the Founder Shares were subject to surrender by Stone Bay, LLC for no consideration to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part.

 

In October 2025, the Company effected a share capitalization, resulting in the issuance of an additional 1,616,217 Class B ordinary shares (Founder Shares) to Stone Bay, LLC for no additional consideration. Following the share capitalization, Stone Bay, LLC held an aggregate of 4,040,541 Founder Shares. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share capitalization.

 

The underwriters’ over-allotment option expired unexercised on May 28, 2026. As a result, the 527,027 Founder Shares that were subject to forfeiture became subject to surrender by Stone Bay, LLC to the Company for no consideration. During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the surrender and cancellation of these shares was completed, and the Company’s register of members was updated accordingly. As of September 30, 2026, Stone Bay, LLC held 3,513,514 Founder Shares, and 3,513,514 Class B ordinary shares remained issued and outstanding.

In August 2025, Stone Bay, LLC, one of the Company’s sponsors, agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 (the "Promissory Note") to be used to pay a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering. As of December 31, 2025, $89,000 was outstanding under the Promissory Note. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company received additional drawdowns totaling $80,000, consisting of $80,000 during the six  months ended June 30, 2026 and $0 during the three months ended September 30, 2026. On April 15, 2026, upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, $70,000 of the outstanding balance was settled through a non-cash offset arrangement between the Company’s co-sponsors in connection with the funding of the Private Placement, whereby $70,000 of the $1,400,000 Private Placement purchase price was applied against the Promissory Note in lieu of a cash payment. Following these transactions, $99,000 remained outstanding under the Promissory Note as of September 30, 2026 ($89,000 plus $80,000 of drawdowns, less the $70,000 non-cash settlement).

Administrative Services Agreement

 

On April 13, 2026, in connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company entered into an administrative services agreement with Stone Bay, LLC, one of the Company’s co-sponsors, pursuant to which the Company will pay $1,667 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support, commencing on the date the Company’s securities were first listed on the Nasdaq Global Market and ending upon the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation.

Related Party Loans

 

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsors or an affiliate of the Sponsors, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors, may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required ("Working Capital Loans").

 

If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, such Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. 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 such loans.

 

Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Such Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. As of September 30, 2026, no Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
