The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $

On June 25, 2026, the Company, Parent Merger Sub and Pasqal entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Amendment No. 2”). On July 22, 2026, the Company, Parent Merger Sub and Pasqal entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Amendment No. 3”).

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on March 16, 2026. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any future periods.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
The Company’s liquidity needs up to January 9, 2026 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements--Going Concern,” as of this filing, the Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, 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.
The Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Completion Window.
Principles of Consolidation
Bleichroeder Acquisition 2 France was incorporated as a société par actions simplifiée under the laws of the Republic of France on March 15, 2022. On February 19, 2026, the Company purchased

As of June 30, 2026, Parent Merger Sub’s issued and outstanding share capital consisted of 500,000 ordinary shares, of which 499,999 shares were held by Bleichroeder and one(1) share was held by Michel Combes. Parent Merger Sub does not own any material assets or conduct any business activities other than activities incidental to effectuating the Business Combination. The address and telephone number for Parent Merger Sub’s principal executive officers are the same as those for Bleichroeder.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (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 exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments 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 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 and it has different application dates for public or private 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements with 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
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 $

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between Class A ordinary shares and Public Warrants, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value of the Public Warrants and then to the Class A ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were charged to shareholders’ deficit as the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements recognition and measurement of tax positions 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. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were unrecognized tax benefits and amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Warrant Instruments
The Company accounted for the Public and Private Placement Warrants to be issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the private placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated and classified the warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned value.

(Unaudited)
Share-Based Payment Arrangements
The Company accounts for share awards in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“FASB ASC 718”), which requires that all equity awards be accounted for at their “fair value.” Fair value is measured on the grant date and is equal to the underlying value of the share.
Costs equal to these fair values are recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the number of awards that are expected to vest, in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately and have no future service condition, or in the period the awards vest immediately after meeting a performance condition becomes probable (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). For awards that vest over time, cumulative adjustments in later periods are recorded to the extent actual forfeitures differ from the Company’s initial estimates; previously recognized compensation cost is reversed if the service or performance conditions are not satisfied and the award is forfeited.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent deficit as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2026, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
As of June 30, 2026, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the consolidated balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of Class A ordinary shares is excluded from income (loss) per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share, because in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share, their exercise is contingent upon future events.
The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per-share amounts):

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the Class A ordinary share underlying such unit.

Additionally, if the number of outstanding Class A ordinary shares is increased by a share capitalization payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a subdivision of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, subdivision or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the ten (

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS
Risks and Uncertainties
The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the middle east conflicts. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the middle east conflicts and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.
Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the middle east conflicts and subsequent sanctions or related actions, 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.
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants (and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) and Private Placement Warrants (and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any, and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the founder shares and any Class A ordinary shares held by the initial shareholders at the completion of the Initial Public Offering or acquired prior to or in connection with the initial Business Combination, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the registration statement for the Initial Public Offering.

In addition, the underwriters may participate in a piggyback registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). 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 1 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 assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The fair value of the Public Warrants is $

Formation, general, and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete an initial business combination or similar transaction within the Completion Window. The CODM also reviews Formation, general, and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Formation, general, and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.
All other segment items included in net 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 that the consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any additional subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
On July 22, 2026, the Company, Parent Merger Sub and Pasqal entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Amendment No. 3”), which amended and restated the provision of the Business Combination Agreement governing the equity incentive plan to be adopted by the Parent Surviving Corporation in connection with the Business Combination. As amended by Amendment No. 3, the long-term incentive plan (the “LTIP”) will provide for awards in the form of founder’s warrants or free shares of up to 10% of the aggregate number of the Parent Surviving Corporation’s shares issued and outstanding immediately after the closing of the Business Combination on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis (after giving effect to any redemptions by the Company’s shareholders). Amendment No. 3 further provides that the Company and Pasqal will negotiate additional edits to the LTIP, including vesting criteria for new award recipients based on performance conditions, in good faith based on recommendations from Pasqal’s compensation consultant, subject to approval of the Parent Surviving Corporation’s board of directors.

| ● | each issued and outstanding warrant exercisable for one Bleichroeder Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (a “Bleichroeder Warrant”), including the Bleichroeder Warrants held as a result of the Unit Separation (as defined below), will cease separate existence and trading and will be converted into a warrant to purchase one ordinary share, par value €0.10 per share, of Parent Surviving Corporation (the “Parent Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares” and, following the Merger, the “New Pasqal Shares” and, the warrant to purchase such New Pasqal Shares, the “New Pasqal Warrants”); |
| ● | each issued and outstanding (i) Bleichroeder Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (each a “Bleichroeder Class A Ordinary Share”), including each Bleichroeder Class A Ordinary Share held as a result of the Unit Separation, and excluding any dissenting shares, any shares held in the treasury of Bleichroeder (“Treasury Shares”), and any Bleichroeder Class A Ordinary Shares held by a holder who has validly exercised its redemption rights (“Redeeming Shares”), and (ii) Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of Bleichroeder (each, a “Bleichroeder Class B Ordinary Share,” and together with the Bleichroeder Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Bleichroeder Ordinary Shares”) will be cancelled and converted automatically into one Parent Surviving Corporation Ordinary Share; |

If the Business Combination Agreement is validly terminated, none of the Parties will have any liability or any further obligation under the Business Combination Agreement other than customary confidentiality obligations, except in the case of willful breach or fraud. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Bleichroeder terminates the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to clauses (vii) or (viii) above, Pasqal will pay Bleichroeder $3,000,000 as liquidated damages.
The Business Combination Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the Parties made to each other as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the Parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the Parties in connection with negotiating the Business Combination Agreement. The Business Combination Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about Bleichroeder, Parent Merger Sub or Pasqal. In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Business Combination Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Business Combination Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the Parties, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting Parties (including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the Parties instead of establishing these matters as facts) and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting Parties that differ from those applicable to investors and reports and documents filed with the SEC. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, or any descriptions thereof, as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of any party to the Business Combination Agreement. In addition, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements and other terms of the Business Combination Agreement may be subject to subsequent waiver or modification. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties and other terms may change after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Bleichroeder’s public disclosures.

Private Placement Investment
In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, on March 4, 2026, Bleichroeder, Initial Merger Sub and the accredited investors named therein (the “Existing Purchasers”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”). On May 23, 2026, Bleichroeder, Initial Merger Sub, Inflection Point Asset Management LLC and an accredited investor advised by Inflection Point Asset Management LLC (the “New Purchaser” and, together with the Existing Purchasers, the “Investors”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to the SPA (the “SPA Amendment”), which increased the aggregate subscription price under the SPA by $50.0 million and joined the New Purchaser as an additional Investor under the SPA. In connection with Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement, on May 26, 2026, Initial Merger Sub and Parent Merger Sub also entered into an assignment and assumption agreement pursuant to which Parent Merger Sub assumed all of Initial Merger Sub’s rights and obligations under the SPA and Initial Merger Sub was released from such obligations arising from and after that date. Pursuant to the SPA, as amended by the SPA Amendment, the Investors have agreed, among other things, subject to certain conditions, to purchase $312 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured convertible bonds convertible into New Pasqal Shares (the “Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds”) and warrants to purchase a number of New Pasqal Shares equal to 125% of the total number of New Pasqal Shares into which the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds are initially convertible at Closing (the “Investment Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $250 million, reflecting a 20% original issue discount (the “Investment”). The closing of the Investment shall occur substantially concurrent with the Closing.
28
In accordance with the French Commercial Code, the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds will be issued pursuant to the Terms and Conditions (termes et conditions des obligations convertibles en actions ordinaires) attached to New Pasqal’s shareholders decision issuing the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds (the “Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds Terms and Conditions”), and the Investment Warrants will be issued pursuant to the Terms and Conditions (termes et conditions des bons de souscriptions d’actions) attached to New Pasqal’s shareholders decision issuing the Investment Warrants (the “Investment Warrants Terms and Conditions”).
The SPA includes customary representations and warranties from Bleichroeder, Parent Merger Sub and the Investors and is subject to customary closing conditions. The SPA also includes customary covenants and agreements related to transfer restrictions, SEC reports, and indemnification. The Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds and the Investment Warrants may be amended only with the written consent of the Company and bondholders holding a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds, or as otherwise required in accordance with the French Commercial Code. Holders of the New Pasqal Shares issuable upon conversion of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds and New Pasqal Shares underlying any Investment Warrants will have the registration rights set forth in the A&R Registration Rights Agreement.
| ● | Ranking: The Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds shall rank senior to the New Pasqal Shares and any other class or series of capital stock of New Pasqal currently existing or hereafter authorized, classified or reclassified by New Pasqal, and junior and subordinated to other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company. |
| ● | Bondholders Representative. Holders of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds shall be organized as a group for the representation of their interests (the “Masse”). The Masse shall be governed by the provisions of the French Code de commerce and will act in part through a bondholders representative (representant de la masse) and in part through collective decisions of the Convertible Bondholders, whether by general meetings or written consultations as permitted under Article L. 228-46-1 of the French Commercial Code. Any reasonable and documented costs or expenses incurred by the holders of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds in connection with the operation and consultation of the Masse shall be reimbursed by New Pasqal upon presentation of the relevant invoices. |
| ● | Interest Payments: The Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds will accrue interest at the rate per annum of 10.0% per annum payable in cash semi-annually. However, if a payment in cash has not been made on a semi-annual payment date, payment on the next semi-annual payment date shall be in PIK at a rate of 12% payable and compounded annually from the last payment date on which a payment in cash has been made. |
| ● | Liquidation Preference: Upon any liquidation or deemed liquidation event (as defined in the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds Terms and Conditions, a “Deemed Liquidation Event”), the holders of Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds will be entitled to receive out of the available proceeds, before any distribution is made to holders of common stock or any other junior securities, an amount equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the Accrued Value (as defined in the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds Terms and Conditions) or (ii) such amount as would have been payable had such Convertible Bond been converted into Ordinary Shares immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event based on the then effective rate of conversion and without giving effect to any applicable limitations on conversion. Thereafter, the holders of Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds will be entitled to receive their pro rata share of the remaining available proceeds available for distribution to shareholders, on an as-converted to ordinary share basis. |
| ● | Protective Provisions: For as long as 10% of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds issued as of the Closing are held by Inflection Point Asset Management LLC and certain other holders of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds and their respective affiliates, New Pasqal shall not, without the affirmative vote or action of the Masse (the “Requisite Holders”), take any of the following actions: (i) liquidate, dissolve or wind up the affairs of New Pasqal, or commence or consent to any bankruptcy proceeding relating to the Company; (ii) amend, alter, or repeal any provision of the bylaws, the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds Terms and Conditions in a manner that materially and adversely affects the powers, preferences or rights given to the holders of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds; (iii) create or authorize the creation of or issue any other equity security or security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security unless such security ranks junior to the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds with respect to its rights, preferences and privileges, or increase the aggregate amount of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds accordingly; (iv) pay any cash dividend or redeem any equity or equity-linked security prior to repayment in full, redemption or conversion of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds into New Pasqal Shares, other than stock repurchased at cost from former employees and consultants in connection with the cessation of their service or pursuant to the terms of any equity incentive plan of New Pasqal; (v) enter into any transaction with an affiliate, other than the issuance of equity or awards to eligible participants under New Pasqal’s incentive plan, equity plan or equity-based compensation plan, or with respect to employment, consulting or award agreements with respect to executive officers of New Pasqal, in each case regardless of whether such person (or such person’s affiliates) would be considered an affiliate of New Pasqal; or (vi) incur or guarantee any new indebtedness, including secured and/or senior debt, other than equipment leases or trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds shall not be considered indebtedness for purposes of this calculation. The Company must promptly deliver written notice to the bondholders of the occurrence of any breach or default of the foregoing, each of which shall be considered as an event of default unless, if curable, it has not been cured within five business days of formal notice sent by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt (lettre recommandée avec accusé de reception) or by bailiff service (notification par commissaire de justice). |
29
| ● | Optional Conversion: Each Convertible Bond may be convertible into New Pasqal Shares at any time at the option of the holder at a rate equal to the then-Accrued Value, divided by the then-applicable conversion price. The conversion price will initially be $12.00, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations, reclassifications and similar events and customary anti-dilution adjustments, including with respect to future issuances or sales of New Pasqal Shares at prices less than the conversion price then in effect. In addition, on the date that is six months after the Closing, if the 20-day volume-weighted average price of the New Pasqal Shares is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price will be adjusted to the greater of (i) such volume weighted average price and (ii) $7.80. |
| ● | Redemption Rights: Unless prohibited by applicable law governing distributions to shareholders, the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds shall be redeemable at the option of the Requisite Holders commencing any time after the 5th anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the Accrued Value. New Pasqal shall elect to settle with (i) cash from distributable amounts in accordance with article L. 232-11 of the French Commercial Code; (ii) cash proceeds from a new issue of equity securities carried out for the purpose of such redemption; (iii) New Pasqal Shares on a price per share basis at least 20.0% lower than the last closing price immediately preceding the issuance of the related redemption notice; or (iv) a combination thereof. |
| ● | Call Rights: Unless prohibited by applicable law governing distributions to shareholders, all or a portion of the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds shall be redeemable at the option of New Pasqal commencing any time (i) prior to the first anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 150% of the Accrued Value, (ii) on or after the 1st anniversary but prior to the 2nd anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 140% of the Accrued Value, (iii) on or after the second anniversary of the Closing but prior to the third anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 130% of the Accrued Value, (iv) on or after the third anniversary of the Closing but prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 120% of the Accrued Value, (v) on or after the fourth anniversary of the Closing but prior to the 5th anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 110% of the Accrued Value, or (vi) on or after the fifth anniversary of the Closing at a price equal to the 100% of the Accrued Value. |
| ● | Investment Warrants: At the closing of the Investment, the Investors will receive Investment Warrants to purchase New Pasqal Shares. The Investment Warrants will be immediately exercisable upon issuance at Closing and will expire five years from the date of Closing. The Investment Warrants include customary cash and cashless exercise provisions. Each Investment Warrant is initially exercisable at $12.00 per New Pasqal Share, subject to the same anti-dilution and other adjustments as the Senior Unsecured Convertible Bonds. |
| ● | Warrant Redemption: Commencing on the one year anniversary of the Closing, New Pasqal may redeem all outstanding Investment Warrants, in whole and not in part, upon prior written notice of redemption if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the New Pasqal Shares underlying such Investment Warrants equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period, subject to certain conditions. |
| ● | Inflection Point Designation Rights: In connection with the Investment, Bleichroeder and the Sponsor agreed to provide certain investors (the “IP Investors”) led by Inflection Point Fund I LP (“Inflection Point”), a member of Bleichroeder Manager 2 LLC, the Sponsor’s managing member, the right to designate one individual (the “IP Nominee”) to be included as one of the directors that Bleichroeder is entitled to designate to the New Pasqal board of directors at the Closing (the “Designation Right”) under the Business Combination Agreement. Each of Bleichroeder and the Sponsor agreed to take all actions within its respective power, including voting (or causing to be voted) any securities of Bleichroeder or New Pasqal over which it exercises voting control, and to exercise all rights it may have under the Business Combination Agreement, any organizational documents, any investor rights or similar agreement, or otherwise, to designate the IP Nominee to the New Pasqal board of directors. |
The foregoing description of the SPA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.5 hereto, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from August 27, 2025 (inception) through June 30, 2026 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. Subsequent to the Initial Offering, we generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net income of $298,688, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $2,564,397 partially offset by formation, general and administrative costs of $2,265,709.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net loss of $2,393,731, which consisted of formation, general and administrative costs of $7,173,851 partially offset by interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $4,780,120.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of shares of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, by the Sponsor and loans from the Sponsor.
On January 9, 2026, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 28,750,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option of 3,750,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $287,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 7,750,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000. Of those 7,750,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor purchased 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, and the underwriters, CCM and CS, purchased 2,750,000 Private Placement Warrants (or 2,612,500 and 137,500 Private Placement Warrants, respectively).
Following the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option in full, and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $287,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred total transaction costs of $17,870,483, consisting of $5,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $12,250,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $620,483 of other offering costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $1,296,331. Net loss of $2,393,731 was affected by investments held in Trust Account of $4,780,120 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $5,877,520.
As of June 30, 2026, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $292,280,120 consisting of U.S. government treasury obligations with maturity of 185 days or less or interests in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our 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 of $866,407. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily 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 fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $2,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The Private Placement Warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering.
31
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements--Going Concern,” as of this filing, we may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. Our officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are 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. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
Our liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Completion Window.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet 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 sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet 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 obligation to pay an affiliate of our Chief Operating Officer of $18,000 per month, then upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, an amount equal to $600,000 less the total amount of all such monthly payments made up to that time, for services as Chief Operating Officer pursuant to an advisory agreement, as further described in this prospectus; prior to our initial business combination, no payments under this agreement shall be made from amounts held in the trust account.
The underwriters had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On January 9, 2026, the underwriters elected to fully exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,750,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit.
The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $5,000,000 (2.00% of the gross proceeds of the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering) which was paid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.00% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account, up to $12,250,000 in the aggregate upon the completion of our Initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and expenses during the period reported. 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We used a third-party valuation expert to value the Public Warrants as of the Initial Public Offering. As of June 30, 2026, other than the Public Warrants at the Initial Public Offering, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.
32
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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures 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 Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the period ended June 30, 2026.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
