ALPHA STAR ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations
Organization and General
Alpha Star Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 11, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on businesses that have a connection to the Asian market. 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 A-Star Management Corporation, a British Virgin Islands incorporated company (the “Sponsor”). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”).
The Company initially had 9 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 21 months from the closing of IPO) to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the Combination Period, it will trigger its automatic winding up, liquidation and subsequent dissolution pursuant to the terms of the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. As a result, this has the same effect as if the Company had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under the Companies Law. Accordingly, no vote would be required from the Company’s shareholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, liquidation and subsequent dissolution.
The
Company’s IPO was declared effective on December 13, 2021. On December 15, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of
units which include an additional units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment, at $
per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $
Concurrently
with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of units (the “Private Placement”) at a price of $
per Private Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $
Shareholders Meetings
On
July 13, 2023, the Company held an Annual General Meeting, where shareholders approved to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination to March 15, 2024
(27 months from the consummation of the IPO). In connection with the extension vote on the Annual General Meeting, public shares
were rendered for redemption. The total redemption payment is $
On January 10, 2024, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting, where shareholders approved the amendments of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to (i) extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination to September 15, 2024 (33 months from the consummation of the IPO); (ii) allow the Company to undertake an initial business combination with an entity or business (“Target Business”), with a physical presence, operation, or other significant ties to China (a “China-based Target”) or which may subject the post-business combination business or entity to the laws, regulations and policies of China (including Hong Kong and Macao), or an entity or business that conducts operations in China through variable interest entities, or VIEs, pursuant to a series of contractual arrangements (“VIE Agreements”) with the VIE and its shareholders on one side, and a China-based subsidiary of the China-based Target (the “WFOE”), on the other side (the “Target Limitation Amendment Proposal”); and (iii) eliminate the limitation that the Company shall not redeem its public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the ordinary shares, or the securities of any entity that succeeds the Company as a public company, becoming “penny stock” (as defined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), or cause the Company to not meet any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to a Business Combination (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”).

The total redemption payment was $
On May 2, 2025, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its shareholders. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved certain proposals related to the business combination with OU XDATA GROUP. In connection with the shareholders meeting to vote for business combination approval, the public shareholders were entitled to exercise the redemption right and public shares were tendered for redemption but the shares have not been redeemed as of June 30, 2026. The redemption price will be determined on the date that is two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.
On June 12, 2025, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its shareholders. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved certain amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination to December 15, 2025.

On
December 11, 2025, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its shareholders. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders

On June 24, 2026, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its shareholders. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved certain proposals related to the business combination with OU XDATA GROUP. In connection with the shareholders meeting to vote for business combination approval, the public shareholders were entitled to exercise the redemption right and public shares were tendered for redemption but the shares have not been redeemed as of June 30, 2026. The redemption price will be determined on the date that is two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.
Extension fees
From
September 13, 2022 to June 30, 2023, the Company was requested to draw the funds of $
Certain extension payments due from March 31, 2026 through July 31, 2026 were funded after their respective due dates. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Sponsor or its designee had remitted all outstanding extension payments; however, the funds for the August extension payment had not yet been received by Wilmington Trust, National Association, in its capacity as trustee. The failure to timely make the extension payments (the “Late Payments”) constituted a breach of the extension provisions of the current Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and Trust Agreement. If the Sponsor or its designee failed to make the required deposits on a timely basis, such failure would have required the Company to cease operations and liquidate in accordance with Article 36.2 of the Current Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Trust Agreement. The Company did not commence liquidation proceedings and continues to pursue the Business Combination. There can be no assurance that a court would not determine that the Company was required to liquidate upon the initial failure to timely fund the extension payments, which could adversely affect the completion of the Business Combination.

Business Combination Agreement
On September 12, 2024, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement with OU XDATA GROUP (“XDATA”), a Company incorporated in Estonia, and Roman Eloshvili, the sole shareholder of XDATA. The Business Combination Agreement provides for: (1) the Company will incorporate a Cayman Islands exempted company (“PubCo”) in accordance with the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands; (2) the merger of the Company with and into PubCo (the “Reincorporation Merger”), with PubCo surviving the Reincorporation Merger; and (3) the share exchange between PubCo and the shareholder of XDATA, resulting in XDATA being a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo. Following the Business Combination, PubCo will be a publicly traded company.
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company and XDATA, among other things, at the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger, each ordinary share of the Company, par value $ per share issued and outstanding, will automatically be converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive one ordinary share of PubCo; each issued and outstanding warrant of the Company sold to the public and to A-Star Management Corporation, in a private placement in connection with the Company’s IPO will automatically and irrevocably be assumed by PubCo and converted into one corresponding warrant exercisable to purchase one-half (1/2) of one PubCo Ordinary Share, subject to the same terms and conditions prior to the First Effective Time; and each seven issued and outstanding Rights of the Company will automatically and irrevocably be assumed by PubCo and converted into one corresponding PubCo Ordinary Share. No fractional PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with such conversion and the number of PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to such holder upon such conversion will be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no cash will be paid in lieu of such Rights of the Company. Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, each issued and outstanding unit of the Company, each consisting of one Ordinary Share, one Right and one Warrant of the Company, will be automatically separated and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one Ordinary Share, one Right and one Warrant of the Company.
On September 4, 2024, Xdata Group (“PubCo”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement.
On September 21, 2024, the Company, PubCo and XDATA entered into an Expense Settlement Agreement, pursuant to which, XDATA agreed to bear and cover the cost in relation to PubCo’s business operating cost starting from September 1, 2024. PubCo and the Company agreed that XDATA will assume financial responsibility for such expenses as detailed in expense reports or invoices provided by third parties or directly incurred by PubCo. As a result of the Expense Settlement Agreement, the Company assumed no liabilities for the Pubco expenses incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
For
the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, PubCo incurred expenses amounting to $

The Trust Account
As
of December 15, 2021, a total of $
The funds held in the Trust Account are invested only in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes having a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and investing solely in United States government treasuries. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations, the proceeds will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation.
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard, Transfer of Listing
On December 16, 2024, the Company was notified by Nasdaq of its upcoming delisting due to the failure to complete its initial business combination by December 13, 2024. Trading ceased on December 23, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE has been filed by Nasdaq with the SEC on May 20, 2025. Following the filing of the Form 25-NSE, the Company’s securities have been delisted from Nasdaq. The Company did not appeal the delisting, and its ordinary shares, units, rights and warrants are currently traded on the OTCID Market. Despite this, the planned business combination with OU XDATA GROUP remains on track, with intentions to apply for Nasdaq listing post-merger.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As
of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had

On
September 13, 2022, December 13, 2022, March 13, 2023, and September 20, 2023, the Company issued four promissory notes (collectively,

On March 16, 2026, the Company entered into a loan agreement, by and among the Company and Sponsor, pursuant to which
the Sponsor agreed to loan an aggregate of $
If the Company underestimates the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination or the actual amount necessary is higher, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its Business Combination or because the Company has become obligated to redeem a significant number of its Public Shares upon completion of its Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. In addition, the Company has until December 15, 2026 (the “Liquidation Date”) to consummate a business combination.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by the Liquidation Date, then the Company may cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The uncertainty surrounding the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that, as of June 30, 2026, the Company had insufficient working capital to cover its short-term operating needs. The Company had no revenue before the Business Combination. It incurred and expected to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), specifically Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the period ending December 31, 2026, or any future period.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in the Form 10-K filed on March 20, 2026.
Basis of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and PubCo, its wholly owned subsidiary newly established on September 4, 2024. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an emerging growth company as defined by Section 2(a) of 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 exceptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payment 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 an 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, it has different application dates than public 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 consolidated financial statements with those of 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 consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 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 at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events.
Cash in Escrow
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents. The Company had

Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
The
Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance
sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held

statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid $ and $ cash out of the Trust Account for the redemption, which was for the corresponding redemption of shares and shares, respectively.
| 10 |
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. 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. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.
All of the ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Accordingly, all of the shares of ordinary shares were presented as temporary equity upon closing of the IPO.
The
Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares
to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary
shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.
The interest earned by the marketable security held in trust, and the extension fee invested into the marketable security held in trust,
were also recognized in redemption value against additional paid-in capital or accumulated deficit immediately. The proceeds on the deposit
in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to the short-term nature.
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders.
The calculation of diluted income (loss) per ordinary shares does not consider the effect of the warrants and rights issued in connection with the (i) IPO; (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants and rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events; and (iii) the effect of the rights to receive shares. The warrants are exercisable to purchase ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.

The net (loss) income per share presented in the statements of operations is based on the following:

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the consolidated financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for consolidated financial statements recognition and measurement of a tax position 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. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. The Company has identified the Cayman Islands as its only “major” tax jurisdiction, as defined. Any interest payable in respect of U.S. debt obligations (if any) held by the Trust Account is intended to qualify for the portfolio interest exemption or otherwise be exempt from U.S. withholding taxes. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in material changes to its financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense.
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. Government enacted legislation commonly referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act. The main provision of the Inflation Reduction Act (the IRA) that we anticipate may impact us is a 1% excise tax on share repurchases. Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Because there is possibility that the Company may acquire a U.S. domestic corporation or engage in a transaction in which a domestic corporation becomes a parent or affiliate to the Company, the Company may become a “covered corporation” as a listed Company in Nasdaq.
On July 13, 2023, January 10, 2024, July 12, 2024, December 27, 2024 and December 11, 2025, , , , , and public shares were rendered for redemption in connection with an extension vote, respectively (see “Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations” for further information). The management team has evaluated the IRA as of June 30, 2026, and does not accrue any excise tax related to the redemption as the Company believes it is not a “covered corporation” under Internal Revenue Code Section 4501. The management team will continue to evaluate its impact.
The provision for income taxes was deemed to be immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Warrants
The Company evaluates the Public and Private Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrants’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480 that meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. Pursuant to such an evaluation, both Public and Private Warrants are classified as stockholders’ equity.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any of the recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies
Risks and Uncertainties
Global geopolitical and economic conditions, including the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, tensions in the Middle East, including recent military actions involving the United States and Iran, and related sanctions, trade restrictions, and disruptions in global energy, supply chain, and financial markets, continue to create significant uncertainty and market volatility. In addition, changes in U.S. trade and tariff policies, including tariffs imposed on imports from certain countries, particularly China, and recent legal challenges and Supreme court rulings regarding the executive branch’s tariff authority, have increased uncertainty in international trade and capital markets. These developments, together with retaliatory measures imposed by other countries, may adversely affect global economic conditions, liquidity, commodity prices, inflation, cybersecurity risks, and overall market stability.
Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Underwriters Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to Units (over and above the units referred to above) solely to cover over-allotments at $ per Unit. On December 15, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full to purchase Units at a purchase price of $ per Unit.
On
December 15, 2021, the Company paid a cash underwriting commission of

Company has deferred underwriting commissions of $
The Company also considered the guidance in ASC 405-20-40 related to the derecognition of liabilities and concluded that the reduction in the Deferred Underwriting Commission does not represent a gain on extinguishment, as the original obligation was recorded as an equity issuance cost rather than through earnings.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the IPO. The holders 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 “piggy-back” 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.
Contingencies and Dismissal of the Then-Legal Counsel
The Company may from time to time be subject to various legal or administrative claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no legal or administrative proceedings for which a loss was probable and expected to be material to the consolidated financial statements.
On
February 5, 2024, the management and the Sponsor determined to dismiss the Company’s then-legal counsel and also terminated its
services of maintaining and managing the escrow account. The former legal counsel alleged that there was an approximate $

days’ notice, only in the event that the last sale price of the ordinary shares is at least $ per share for any trading
days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given, provided there

Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving Company in a business combination, the holders of the rights will automatically receive 1/7 of a share of ordinary shares upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. In the event the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of the initial business combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the 1/7 of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the business combination. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no rights had been converted into shares.
Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company complies with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value for each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
| 17 |
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, assets held in the Trust Account were entirely comprised of marketable securities.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Note 9 – Segment Reporting
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 that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and 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 Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, who review the assets, operating
results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance.
Accordingly, management has determined that there is only
The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income (loss) that also is reported on the statement of operations as net income (loss). The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are formation and operational costs. Formation and operational costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period. The CODM also reviews formation and operational costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Formation and operational costs, as reported on the unaudited statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.
All other segment items included in net income (loss) are reported on the statement of operations and described within their respective disclosures.
Note 10 – Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon the review, the Company did not identify other subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statement except those have been disclosed elsewhere in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the following:

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 11, 2021 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private 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 a Business Combination will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through June 30, 2026 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the IPO, described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenue until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We expect that we will incur increased 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 three months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net loss of $(142,258), which consisted of operating costs of $149,395, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $4,791 and unrealized interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $2,346, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net loss of $(308,056), which consisted of operating costs of $322,008, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $11,606 and unrealized interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $2,346, respectively.
| 19 |
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net loss of $(137,495), which consisted of operating costs of $142,376, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $3,190 and unrealized interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,691, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net loss of $(338,262), which consisted of operating costs of $366,188, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $26,235 and unrealized interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,691, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On December 15, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (including the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters in the IPO) at $10.00 per unit (the “Public Units”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one redeemable warrant to purchase one-half (1/2) ordinary share (each a “Warrant”, and, collectively, the “Warrants”), and one right to receive one-seventh (1/7) of an ordinary share upon the consummation of a Business Combination. Simultaneously with the IPO, the Company sold to its Sponsor 330,000 units at $10.00 per unit in a private placement generating total gross proceeds of $3,300,000. Offering costs amounted to $5,669,696 consisting of underwriting fees of $2,300,000, deferred underwriting fees of $2,875,000, and other offering costs of $494,696. Apart from $25,000 for the subscription of ordinary shares, the Company received net proceeds of $115,682,250 from the IPO and the private placement.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used by operating activities was $373,822. Net loss of $(308,056) consisted of formation and operating costs of $322,008, offset by interest and dividends earned on marketable securities held in trust of $13,952. Net cash used in investing activities was $82,810, consisting of extension contributions of $105,000 deposited into the marketable security held in trust account and offset by cash of $22,190 withdrawn from the trust account to redeem public shares. Net cash provided by financing activities was $456,632, consisting of $22,190 for the redemption of public shares offset by the proceed of Sponsor promissory note and Sponsor Loan in the amount of $478,822.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used by operating activities was $528,701. Net loss of $(338,262) consisted of formation and operating costs of $366,188, offset by interest and dividends earned on marketable securities held in trust of $27,926. Net cash provided by investing activities was $10,609,317, consisting of extension contributions of $210,000 deposited into the marketable security held in trust account and offset by cash of $10,819,317 withdrawn from the trust account to redeem public shares. Net cash used in financing activities was $10,080,616, consisting of $10,819,317 for the redemption of public shares offset by the proceed of Sponsor promissory note and Sponsor Loan in the amount of $738,701.
As of June 30, 2026, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $814,834. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, excluding deferred underwriting commissions, to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of June 30, 2026, we had cash in escrow of nil held outside of the Trust Account. We intend to raise funds through borrowing from the Sponsor, and use the funds to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
In order to complete a Business Combination, the Company will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor 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, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses.

The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern if a Business Combination is not consummated.
The Company had issued the following promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”):
On September 13, 2022, December 13, 2022, March 13, 2023 and September 20, 2023, the Company issued four promissory notes in the principal amount of up to $1,000,000, $1,300,000, $2,500,000 and $2,500,000 respectively, to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor shall loan to the Company up to the related amount to pay the extension fee and transaction cost. The Notes are repayable in full upon the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination pursuant to the amendment of the Notes. The Notes have no conversion feature, no collateral and bear no interest.
On August 26, 2024, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company and Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan an aggregate of US$1.5 million to the Company, to cover the Company’s certain transaction costs and extension fee (the “Loan”). The Loan is non-interest bearing. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Loan shall be payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination.
On September 25, 2024, the Company entered into supplementary agreements with its Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agrees to waive the principal balance of the Notes and the Loan with a total amount of $6,245,961 and $746,270, respectively.
On March 16, 2026, the Company entered into a loan agreement, by and among the Company and Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan an aggregate of $500,000 to the Company, to cover the Company’s certain transaction costs and extension fee (the “2026 Loan”). The 2026 Loan is non-interest bearing. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Loan shall be payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time.
We believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. If our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a business combination is less than the actual amount needed to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business 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.
Off-Balance Sheets Financing Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities that would be considered off-balance sheets arrangements as of June 30, 2026. 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 sheets arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheets financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative services, provided to the Company. We began incurring these fees on December 15, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $2,875,000. 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.
On October 13, 2025, in consideration of the redemption levels by Alpha Star public shareholders and the balance of the Trust Account following the shareholder redemptions in connection with the business combination of the Company and OU XDATA GROUP among other factors, the Company, Ladenburg and OU XDATA GROUP entered into an amendment to the Initial Underwriting Agreement, pursuant to which Ladenburg agreed to reduce the DUC (the “Deferred Underwriting Commissions”) from $2,875,000 to $950,000, to be paid in cash by the Company or, if the Company fails to do so, by OU XDATA GROUP, at the closing of the Business Combination.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with 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 income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
Warrants
The Company evaluates the Public and Private Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrants’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. Pursuant to such evaluation, both Public and Private Warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Ordinary Shares Subject to Redemption
We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as commitments and contingencies, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheets.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders.
| 22 |
The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary shares and related weighted average of the ordinary shares does not consider the effect of the warrants and rights issued in connection with the (i) IPO; and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants and rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 5,915,000 shares of ordinary shares in the aggregate, and the rights are exercisable to convert 1,690,000 shares of ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company other than above. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.
Recent accounting standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our interim condensed financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of June 30, 2026, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of our IPO, the net proceeds of our IPO, including amounts in the Trust Account, have been invested in certain U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of June 30, 2026.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, relating to ineffective review and approval procedures over journal entries and financial statement preparation which resulted in errors not being timely identified for the current year’s financial statements. We concluded that the failure to timely identify such accounting errors constituted a material weakness as defined in the SEC regulations. As such, management determined that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of June 30, 2026.
| 23 |
To respond to this material weakness, we have devoted and plan to continue to devote significant efforts and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have procedures in place to identify and comply with the applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system to evaluate and implement the complex accounting standards that are applicable to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished overtime, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects, or that any additional material weaknesses or of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. Even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15- d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable details, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026. In making these assessments, management used the criteria as set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessments and those criteria, management determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026 was not effective.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include an attestation report of internal controls from our independent registered public accounting firm due to our status as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings as of the filing date of this Form 10-Q.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in our annual report on the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 under Forward-Looking Statements and Item 1A – Risk Factors, filed with the SEC. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with its Sponsor for the purchase of 330,000 Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $3,300,000, pursuant to the Private Placement Unit Purchase Agreement dated December 13, 2021. Each Private Unit purchased by the Sponsor consists of one Shares, one right to receive one-seventh (1/7) of a Share upon the consummation of a business combination and one private placement warrant exercisable to purchase one-half (1/2) of one Share at a price of $10.00 per Share. The Private Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.
Use of Proceeds
The registration statement for our IPO was declared effective by the SEC on December 13, 2021. We completed our IPO on December 15, 2021. In our IPO, we sold units at an offering price of $10.00 and consisting of one ordinary share, one right and one redeemable warrant. Each right entitles the holders thereof to receive one seventh (1/7) of one ordinary shares upon the consumption of the initial business combination. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one ordinary share. We will not issue fractional shares in connection with the exercise of the warrants. In connection with our IPO, we sold 11,500,000 units, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and our Sponsor, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 330,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,300,000.
| 25 |
Transaction costs related to our IPO amounted to $5,669,696, consisting of underwriting fees of $2,300,000, deferred underwriting fees of $2,875,000 and other offering costs of $494,696. A total of $115,000,000, comprised of the proceeds from the IPO of $112,700,000 (which amount includes up to the underwriter’s deferred discount of $2,875,000) and the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units of $2,300,000, was placed in a U.S.-based Trust Account maintained at Wilmington Trust, National Association, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company 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 the Company’s initial business combination; (ii) the redemption of any of the Company’s public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if it does not complete its initial business combination within 9 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 21 months from the closing of the IPO if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity; and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if it is unable to complete its initial business combination within 9 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 27 months from the consummation of the IPO if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination).
