part I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
TETE was incorporated as a blank check company on November 8, 2021, under the laws of the Cayman Islands, for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, which we refer to as a “target business.”
TETE’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that its corporate existence will cease and it will liquidate the trust account (described herein) and distribute the funds included therein to the holders of ordinary shares sold in its IPO if it does not consummate a business combination by April 20, 2025.
Offering Proceeds Held in Trust
On January 20, 2022, TETE consummated the IPO of 10,000,000 units, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, TETE consummated the private sale of an aggregate of 480,000 units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per private placement unit, generating gross proceeds to TETE in the amount of $4,800,000.
On January 20, 2022, the underwriters purchased an additional 1,500,000 units pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The over-allotment option units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to TETE of $15,000,000. Also, in connection with the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor purchased an additional 52,500 private placement units at a purchase price of $10.00 per unit.
Following the closing of the IPO on January 20, 2022, an amount of $116,725,000 ($10.15 per unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the units in the IPO and the private placement was placed in a trust account which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by TETE meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by TETE, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the trust account.
On January 18, 2023, TETE held its extraordinary meeting of shareholders. During this meeting, TETE’s shareholders approved the proposals to (i) amend TETE’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association to give TETE the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”) up to six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time, from January 20, 2023 to July 20, 2023; (ii) amend TETE’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to allow the Company to extend the Combination Period up to six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time from January 20, 2023 to the Extended Date by depositing into the Trust Account, for each one-month extension, the lesser of (a) $262,500 and (b) $0.0525 for each Class A ordinary share outstanding, and (iii) amend the articles of association to expand the methods that TETE may employ to not become subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. On January 18, 2023, 8,373,932 Public Shares were redeemed by a number of shareholders at a price of approximately $10.31 per share, in an aggregate principal amount of $86,353,662. Following the redemptions, there were 3,126,068 TETE Class A ordinary shares outstanding. On February 21, 2023, TETE issued an unsecured promissory note to its Sponsor, in the amount of $656,747 which amount was deposited into the trust account to extend the available time to complete a business combination to February 20, 2023. The Company subsequently deposited $164,119 per month into the trust account to further extend the Combination Period to July 20, 2023.

On July 18, 2023, TETE held an extraordinary meeting of shareholders. During this meeting, TETE’s shareholders approved the proposals to (i) amend TETE’s amended and restated articles of association in existence at that time to give TETE the right to extend the Combination Period up to twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time, from July 20, 2023 to July 20, 2024; (ii) amend TETE’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to allow the Company to extend the Combination Period up to twelve (12) times for an additional one (1) month each time from July 20, 2023 to July 20, 2024, by depositing into the Trust Account, for each one-month extension, the lesser of (a) $144,000 and (b) $0.045 for each Class A ordinary share outstanding, and (iii) amend the amended and restated articles of association to provide for the right of a holder of TETE Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, to convert into Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time prior to the closing of a business combination at the election of the holder. On July 18, 2023, 149,359 Public Shares were redeemed by a number of shareholders at a price of approximately $10.89 per share, in an aggregate principal amount of $1,626,736.79. Following the redemptions, there were 2,976,709 Public Shares outstanding. The Company deposited $133,951.91 into the trust account on a monthly basis to extend the Combination Period from July 20, 2023 to June 20, 2024.
On June 7, 2024, TETE held an extraordinary meeting of shareholders. During this meeting, TETE’s shareholders approved the proposals to (i) amend TETE’s amended and restated articles of association in existence at that time to give TETE the right to extend the Combination Period up to seven (7) times for an additional one (1) month each time, from June 20, 2024 to January 20, 2025; (ii) amend TETE’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to allow the Company to extend the Combination Period up to seven (7) times for an additional one (1) month each time from June 20, 2024 to January 20, 2025, by depositing into the Trust Account, for each one-month extension, the lesser of (a) $60,000 and (b) $0.02 for each ordinary share outstanding. On June 7, 2024, 408,469 Public Shares were redeemed by a number of shareholders at a price of approximately $11.93 per share, in an aggregate principal amount of $4,872,513.12. Following the redemptions, there were 2,568,240 Public Shares outstanding. The Company subsequently deposited $51,364.80 per month into the trust account to extend the Combination Period from June 20, 2024 to January 20, 2025.
Each extension payment is loaned to the Company by the Sponsor pursuant to a promissory note and the Company will repay the aggregate amount contributed by the Sponsor for the extensions at Closing. The loans are not interest-bearing and may be converted into Class A ordinary shares at Closing at the option of the Sponsor.
On January 20, 2025, TETE held an extraordinary meeting of shareholders. During this meeting, TETE’s shareholders approved the proposals to (i) amend TETE’s amended and restated articles of association in existence at that time to give TETE the right to extend the Combination Period by three (3) months from January 20, 2025 to April 20, 2025; and (ii) amend TETE’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022, by and between TETE and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to allow TETE to extend the Combination Period by three (3) months from January 20, 2025 to April 20, 2025. On January 20, 2025, 1,993,697 Public Shares were redeemed by a number of shareholders at a price of approximately $12.41 per share, in an aggregate principal amount of $24,739,495.83. Following the redemptions, there were 574,543 Public Shares outstanding. In connection with the extraordinary meeting of shareholders, on January 20, 2025, TETE entered into a non-redemption agreement (the “Non-Redemption Agreement”) with the Sponsor and certain institutional investors named therein (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Investors agreed that, in connection with the extraordinary meeting of shareholders, the Investors would not exercise their Redemption Rights, or they would rescind or reverse previously submitted redemption requests prior to the meeting. Under the terms of the Non-Redemption Agreement, provided the proposals were approved by the shareholders, TETE and the Sponsor agreed that, promptly following the consummation of the proposed business combination, the Sponsor shall forfeit 150,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Forfeited Shares”) and TETE shall issue 150,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares, in the aggregate, to the Investors (the “New Shares”), for no additional consideration. The New Shares shall be issued free and clear of any liens or other encumbrances, other than (x) pursuant to the provisions of the letter agreement, dated January 14, 2022, by and between TETE and the Sponsor, (y) restrictions on transfer imposed by the securities laws, and (z) any other agreement relating to the shares held by the Sponsor entered into in connection with the proposed business combination (which shall be no less favorable or more restrictive than what is agreed to by the Sponsor). At the Investors’ election, in lieu of receiving the New Shares, following the satisfaction of Redemption Rights in connection with the consummation of the proposed business combination, TETE shall cause its transfer agent to pay to the Investors directly from TETE’s trust account an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) 150,000, (ii) thirty-percent, and (iii) the final per-share redemption price then available to Company stockholder (the “Share Consideration Payment”). In order to receive the Share Consideration Payment, the Investors shall not redeem thirty percent of the TETE publicly traded Class A shares held by the Investor at the time of the business combination redemption deadline.
TETE Public Shares, TETE Warrants and TETE Units are each quoted on Nasdaq, under the symbols “TETEF”, “TETWF”, and “TETUF,” respectively. Each TETE Unit consists of one ordinary share and one redeemable warrant.

Business Combination Activities
TETE entered into an amended and restated agreement and plan of merger, dated as of August 2, 2023 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement” or “Business Combination Agreement”), which provides for a Business Combination between TETE and Bradbury Capital Holdings Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdings”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination will be effected in two steps: (i) TETE will reincorporate in the Cayman Islands by merging with and into TETE TECHNOLOGIES INC, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of TETE (“PubCo”), with PubCo remaining as the surviving publicly traded entity (the “Reincorporation Merger”); (ii) after the Reincorporation Merger, TETE INTERNATIONAL INC (“Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, will be merged with and into Holdings, resulting in Holdings being a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Acquisition Merger”). The Merger Agreement is by and among TETE, PubCo, Merger Sub, Holdings, Super Apps Holdings Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian private limited company and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, Technology & Telecommunication LLC, as the representative of the shareholders of TETE, and Loo See Yuen, an individual as the representative of the shareholders of Holdings.
The aggregate consideration for the Acquisition Merger is $1,100,000,000, payable in the form of 110,000,000 newly issued PubCo Ordinary Shares (the “Closing Payment Shares”) valued at $10.00 per share, of which $235,000,000 shall be paid at Closing with the remaining $865,000,000 payable subject to the earn-out provisions set forth in the Merger Agreement, to Holdings and its shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. At the closing of the Acquisition Merger, the issued and outstanding shares in Holdings held by the former Holdings shareholders will be cancelled and cease to exist, in exchange for the issuance of the Closing Payment Shares, 10% of which are to be issued and held in escrow to satisfy any indemnification obligations incurred under the Merger Agreement. At the closing of the Acquisition Merger, the one fully paid share in Merger Sub held by PubCo will become one fully paid share in the surviving corporation, so that Holdings will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo. Holders of TETE ordinary shares will be asked to approve, among other things, the Merger Agreement and the other related Proposals.
The Business Combination has been approved by the boards of directors of each of TETE and Super Apps. The Business Combination will require the approval of the shareholders of TETE and Super Apps and is subject to other customary closing conditions, including a proxy statement being filed with and cleared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025.
Redemption Rights
Pursuant to TETE’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, TETE shareholders (except the Initial Shareholders and the officers and directors of TETE) will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the trust account net of taxes payable.
TETE’s Initial Shareholders do not have redemption rights with respect to any TETE Shares owned by them, directly or indirectly (nor will they seek appraisal rights with respect to such ordinary shares if appraisal rights would be available to them).
Automatic Dissolution and Subsequent Liquidation of trust account if No Business Combination
If we do not consummate an initial business combination by April 20, 2025, (unless further extended), it will trigger our automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of TETE’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. As a result, this has the same effect as if we had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under the Cayman Companies Act. Accordingly, no vote would be required from our shareholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation.
Our Initial Shareholders or their affiliates or designees will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Such notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, or, at the lender’s discretion, converted upon consummation of our business combination into additional units at a price of $10.00 per unit, which are the same as the Private Placement Units. Our shareholders have approved the issuance of the units upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert such notes at the time of the consummation of our initial business combination. If we are unable to consummate our business combination within such time period, we will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten Business Days thereafter, redeem 100% of our outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account, including a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not necessary to pay our taxes, and then seek to liquidate and dissolve. However, we may not be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of our public shareholders. In the event of our dissolution and liquidation, the public rights will expire and will be worthless.
| 6 |
The amount in the trust account under the Cayman Companies Act will be treated as share premium which is distributable under the Cayman Companies Act provided that immediately following the date on which the proposed distribution is proposed to be made, we are able to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. If we are forced to liquidate the trust account, we anticipate that we would distribute to our public shareholders the amount in the trust account calculated as of the date that is two days prior to the distribution date (including any accrued interest). Prior to such distribution, we would be required to assess all claims that may be potentially brought against us by our creditors for amounts they are actually owed and make provision for such amounts, as creditors take priority over our public shareholders with respect to amounts that are owed to them. We cannot assure you that we will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against us. As such, our shareholders could potentially be liable for any claims of creditors to the extent of distributions received by them as an unlawful payment in the event we enter an insolvent liquidation. Furthermore, while we will seek to have all vendors and service providers (which would include any third parties we engaged to assist us in any way in connection with our search for a target business) and prospective target businesses execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the trust account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements. Nor is there any guarantee that, even if such entities execute such agreements with us, they will not seek recourse against the trust account or that a court would conclude that such agreements are legally enforceable.
Each of our Initial Shareholders and our Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to participate in any liquidation of our trust account or other assets with respect to the Insider Shares and Private Placement Units and to vote their Insider Shares and private shares in favor of any dissolution and plan of distribution which we submit to a vote of shareholders. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants or rights, which will expire worthless.
If we are unable to consummate a business combination and expend all of the net proceeds of the IPO, other than the proceeds deposited in the trust account, and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the trust account, the per-share distribution from the trust account would be approximately $12.54.
The proceeds deposited in the trust account could, however, become subject to the claims of our creditors which would be prior to the claims of our public shareholders. Although we will seek to have all vendors, including lenders for money borrowed, prospective target businesses or other entities we engage execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of our public shareholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account, including but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third party refused to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, we would perform an analysis of the alternatives available to us if we chose not to engage such third party and evaluate if such engagement would be in the best interest of our shareholders if such third party refused to waive such claims. Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refused to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a provider of required services willing to provide the waiver. In any event, our management would perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and would only enter into an agreement with a third party that did not execute a waiver if management believed that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason.
| 7 |
Technology & Telecommunication LLC, our Sponsor, has agreed that, if we liquidate the trust account prior to the consummation of a business combination, it will be liable to pay debts and obligations to target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by us for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to us in excess of the net proceeds of the IPO not held in the trust account, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such debts or obligations do not reduce the amounts in the trust account and only if such parties have not executed a waiver agreement. However, we cannot assure you that the Sponsor will be able to satisfy those obligations if it is required to do so. Accordingly, the actual per-share distribution could be less than $10.15 due to claims of creditors. Additionally, if we are forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against us which is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the trust account, we cannot assure you we will be able to return to our public shareholders at least $10.15 per share.
Facilities and Headquarters
We maintain our principal executive offices at C3-2-23A, Jalan 1/152, Taman OUG Parklane, Off Jalan Kelang Lama, 58200 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The cost for this space is provided to us by Technology & Telecommunication LLC, as part of the $10,000 per month payment we make to it for office space and related services. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.
Employees
We have two executive officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to our affairs. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for the business combination and the stage of the business combination process the company is in. We expected our executive officers to devote such amount of time as they reasonably believe is necessary to our business (which could range from only a few hours a week while we are trying to locate a potential target business to a majority of their time as we move into serious negotiations with a target business for a business combination). Accordingly, as management has located a suitable target business to acquire, they are presently spending more time negotiating and processing the Business Combination than they were previously in locating and investigating target businesses. We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.
For additional discussion of the general development of our business, see our final prospectus on Form 424B4, filed with the SEC on January 19, 2022.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our prospectus filed with the SEC on January 20, 2022. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. In addition to these risk factors, the Company has identified the following additional risk factors:
TETE’s securities have been delisted by Nasdaq and are no longer listed on a national securities exchange, which could make it more difficult to consummate the Business Combination.
TETE’s securities were previously listed on Nasdaq. On January 23, 2025, TETE’s securities were suspended on Nasdaq with immediate effect after TETE gave notice that it would be unable to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. On January 23, 2025, TETE Class A ordinary shares, warrants and units were listed and began trading on the Pink Current tier of the OTC Markets. TETE’s Class A ordinary shares, warrants and units are listed under the symbols “TETEF”, “TETWF”, and “TETUF”.
| 8 |
As a result of being traded on the over-the-counter market, TETE could face significant material adverse consequences, including:
| ● | a limited availability of market quotations for its securities; | |
| ● | reduced liquidity for its securities; | |
| ● | a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; | |
| ● | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; and | |
| ● | being subject to regulation in each state in which TETE offers its securities. |
Additionally, the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because TETE’s securities are no longer listed on a national securities exchange, they would not be considered covered securities. As a result, TETE’s securities would be subject to regulation in each state in which it offers its securities. However, since the Business Combination is structured such that Pubco is issuing its securities, rather than TETE, and Pubco’s securities are expected to be listed on Nasdaq upon the closing of the Business Combination, it is not expected that such designation will have a negative impact on the parties’ ability to consummate the Business Combination. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that a state could not seek to hinder or delay the Business Combination, which could possibly lead to TETE being forced to dissolve and liquidate. While we are not aware of a state having used these powers to prohibit or restrict the sale of securities issued by SPACs, certain state securities regulators view blank check companies unfavorably and might use these powers, or threaten to use these powers, to hinder the sale of securities of blank check companies in their states. Further, if TETE’s securities no longer not qualify as covered securities under such statute and TETE may be subject to regulation in each state in which it offers its securities.
If TETE fails to meet criteria set forth in Rule 15c2-11 (the “Rule”) under the Exchange Act (for example, by failing to file periodic reports as required by the Exchange Act), various practice requirements are imposed on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the Rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transactions prior to sale. Consequently, the Rule may have a material adverse effect on the ability of broker-dealers to sell TETE securities, which may materially affect the ability of investors to sell the securities in the secondary market. Not being listed on a national securities exchange may make trading TETE securities difficult for investors, potentially leading to declines in the share price. It may also make it more difficult for TETE to raise additional capital.
Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.”
The Company expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans and will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial business combination. In addition, the Company expects to have negative cash flows from operations as it pursues an initial business combination target. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” the Company does not currently have adequate liquidity to sustain operations, which consist solely of pursuing a Business Combination.
The Company may raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from the Sponsor or its shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers and directors and the Sponsor may, but are not obligated to (except as described above), loan the Company funds, from time to time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Based on the foregoing, the Company believes it will have sufficient cash to meet its needs through the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination or the deadline to complete a Business Combination pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (unless otherwise amended by shareholders).
| 9 |
While the Company expects to have sufficient access to additional sources of capital if necessary, there is no current commitment on the part of any financing source to provide additional capital and no assurances can be provided that such additional capital will ultimately be available. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise additional capital (to the extent ultimately necessary) or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As is customary for a special purpose acquisition company, if the Company is not able to consummate a Business Combination during the Combination Period, it will cease all operations and redeem the Public Shares. Management plans to continue its efforts to consummate a Business Combination during the Combination Period.
We may not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company since such initial business combination may be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited.
The Sponsor is controlled by Tek Che Ng, an individual who resides in and is a citizen of Malaysia. We are therefore likely considered a “foreign person” under the regulations administered by CFIUS and will continue to be considered as such in the future for so long as the Sponsor has the ability to exercise control over us for purposes of CFIUS’s regulations. As such, an initial business combination with a U.S. business may be subject to CFIUS review, the scope of which was expanded by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (“FIRRMA”), to include certain non-passive, non-controlling investments in sensitive U.S. businesses and certain acquisitions of real estate even with no underlying U.S. business. FIRRMA, and subsequent implementing regulations that are now in force, also subjects certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If our potential initial business combination with a U.S. business falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that we will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, which may limit the attractiveness of or prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete an initial business combination may be limited and we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues.
Moreover, the process of government review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and we have limited time to complete our initial business combination. If we cannot complete our initial business combination by March 20, 2024 (or such later date that may be approved by the Company’s shareholders, such as the Extended Date) because the review process drags on beyond such timeframe or because our initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, we may be required to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public shareholders may only receive their pro rata share of the funds in the trust account (including interest not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes), and our warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause investors to lose the investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the notes related thereto which are included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factor Summary,” “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands on November 8, 2021. We were formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses. While our efforts to identify a target business may span many industries and regions worldwide, we focus on companies with operations in vision sensing technologies. We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the private placement of the Private Units, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our initial Business Combination, shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.
Proposed Business Combination
TETE entered into an amended and restated agreement and plan of merger, dated as of August 2, 2023 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement” or “Business Combination Agreement”), which provides for a Business Combination between TETE and Bradbury Capital Holdings Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdings”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination will be effected in two steps: (i) TETE will reincorporate in the Cayman Islands by merging with and into TETE TECHNOLOGIES INC, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of TETE (“PubCo”), with PubCo remaining as the surviving publicly traded entity (the “Reincorporation Merger”); (ii) after the Reincorporation Merger, TETE INTERNATIONAL INC (“Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, will be merged with and into Holdings, resulting in Holdings being a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Acquisition Merger”). The Merger Agreement is by and among TETE, PubCo, Merger Sub, Holdings, Super Apps Holdings Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian private limited company and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, Technology & Telecommunication LLC, as the representative of the shareholders of TETE, and Loo See Yuen, an individual as the representative of the shareholders of Holdings.
The aggregate consideration for the Acquisition Merger is $1,100,000,000, payable in the form of 110,000,000 newly issued PubCo Ordinary Shares (the “Closing Payment Shares”) valued at $10.00 per share, of which $235,000,000 shall be paid at Closing with the remaining $865,000,000 payable subject to the earn-out provisions set forth in the Merger Agreement, to Holdings and its shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. At the closing of the Acquisition Merger, the issued and outstanding shares in Holdings held by the former Holdings shareholders will be cancelled and cease to exist, in exchange for the issuance of the Closing Payment Shares, 10% of which are to be issued and held in escrow to satisfy any indemnification obligations incurred under the Merger Agreement. At the closing of the Acquisition Merger, the one fully paid share in Merger Sub held by PubCo will become one fully paid share in the surviving corporation, so that Holdings will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo. Holders of TETE ordinary shares will be asked to approve, among other things, the Merger Agreement and the other related Proposals.
The Business Combination has been approved by the boards of directors of each of TETE and Super Apps. The Business Combination will require the approval of the shareholders of TETE and Super Apps and is subject to other customary closing conditions, including a proxy statement being filed with and cleared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through November 30, 2024 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for our Initial Public Offering, described below, and, after our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an initial business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and investments held in the Trust Accounts. 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 year ended November 30, 2024, we had a net income of $617,298, which consists of interest earned on cash and investments held of $1,675,709, partially offset by formation and operating costs of $1,058,411.
For the year ended November 30, 2023, we had a net income of $179,619, which consists of interest earned on cash and investments held of $2,024,071, partially offset by formation and operating costs of $1,844,452.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern Consideration
On January 20, 2022, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Simultaneously with the consummation of the initial public offering, we completed the private placement of an aggregate of 532,500 units to our sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per private placement unit, generating total gross proceeds of $5,325,000.
For the year ended November 30, 2024, cash used in operating activities was $731,569.
For the year ended November 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $781,376.
As of November 30 , 2024, we had cash and investments of $31,665,013 held in the Trust Accounts. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Accounts, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Accounts (less taxes paid and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Accounts 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 November 30 , 2024, we had cash of $25,348 outside of the Trust Accounts. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Accounts 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 our initial business combination.
| 12 |
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with our initial business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Accounts to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Accounts would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units identical to the Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender.
We do not currently believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating our initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary 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 initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Accounts. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
The Company is within 12 months of its mandatory liquidation as of the time of filing this 10-K. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate.
These 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.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. 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 entered into any non-financial agreements involving assets.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our management team carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our management team have concluded that as of November 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to a material weakness in our internal control related to inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for account, IT and financial reporting and record keeping. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 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 detail, 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 at November 30, 2024. In making these assessments, management used the criteria 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 we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2024.
Management has implemented remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we expanded and improved our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We plan to further improve this process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of 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
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended November 30, 2024 covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Committees of the Board of Directors
Our board of directors has two standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, Nasdaq rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and Nasdaq rules require that the compensation committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee, which is established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, engages Company’s independent accountants, reviewing their independence and performance; reviews TETE’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the integrity of its financial statements; the audits of TETE’s financial statements and the appointment, compensation, qualifications, independence and performance of TETE’s independent auditors; TETE’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and the performance of TETE’s internal audit function and internal control over financial reporting.
The members of the Audit Committee are Raghuvir Ramanadhan, Virginia Chan and Kiat Wai Du, each of whom is an independent director under NASDAQ’s listing standards. Kiat Wai Du is the Chairperson of the Audit Committee. The board has determined that both Kiat Wai Du qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee reviews TETE’s corporate goals and objectives relevant to the officers’ compensation, evaluates the officers’ performance in light of such goals and objectives, determines and approves the officers’ compensation level based on this evaluation; makes recommendations to the board regarding approval, disapproval, modification, or termination of existing or proposed employee benefit plans, makes recommendations to the board with respect to non-CEO and non-CFO compensation and administers TETE’s incentive-compensation plans and equity-based plans. The Compensation Committee has the authority to delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees as it may deem appropriate in its sole discretion. The chief executive officer of TETE may not be present during voting or deliberations of the Compensation Committee with respect to his compensation. TETE’s executive officers do not play a role in suggesting their own salaries. Neither TETE nor the Compensation Committee has engaged any compensation consultant who has a role in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive or director compensation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, as indicated above, no compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effect, the consummation of a business combination. Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the Compensation Committee will only be responsible for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements to be entered into in connection with such initial business combination.
The members of the Compensation Committee are Raghuvir Ramanadhan, Virginia Chan and Kiat Wai Du, each of whom is an independent director under NASDAQ’s listing standards. Virginia Chan is the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of our executive officers currently serves, and in the past year has not served, as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our board of directors.
| 19 |
Director Nominations
We do not have a standing nominating committee though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required to do so by law or Nasdaq rules. In accordance with Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq rules, a majority of the independent directors may recommend a director nominee for selection by the board of directors. The board of directors believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry out the responsibility of properly selecting or approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee. The directors who will participate in the consideration and recommendation of director nominees are Raghuvir Ramanadhan, Virginia Chan, and Kiat Wai Du. In accordance with Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq rules, all such directors are independent. As there is no standing nominating committee, we do not have a nominating committee charter in place.
The board of directors will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our shareholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at the next annual meeting of shareholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of shareholders). Our shareholders that wish to nominate a director for election to our board of directors should follow the procedures set forth in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our shareholders.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our ordinary shares and other equity securities. These executive officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons.
Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were filed in a timely manner.
Code of Ethics
We adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.
Insider Trading Policy
We have not adopted an insider trading policy and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of the registrant’s securities by directors, officers and employees, or the registrant itself, that are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to the registrant. We expect that such a policy will be adopted by the post-business combination company in connection with a business combination transaction.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Employment Agreements
We have not entered into any employment agreements with our executive officers and have not made any agreements to provide benefits upon termination of employment.
Officer and Director Compensation
None of our officers has received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on January 14, 2022, we agreed to pay our sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. No compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by us to our sponsor, officers and directors, or any affiliate of our sponsor or officers, prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination will be made using funds held outside the trust account. Other than quarterly audit committee review of such payments, we do not expect to have any additional controls in place governing our reimbursement payments to our directors and executive officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination.
After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting or management fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed initial business combination. We have not established any limit on the amount of such fees that may be paid by the combined company to our directors or members of management. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of the proposed initial business combination, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommended to the board of directors for determination, either by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on our board of directors.
We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after our initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
On November 26, 2021, the Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000, or approximately $0.009 per unit, for the purchase of 2,875,000 Insider Shares, par value $0.0001. The number of Insider Shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such Insider Shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares upon completion of the IPO (excluding the placement units and underlying securities). The Insider Shares (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.
On January 20, 2022, the Sponsor purchased 532,500 placement units for a purchase price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the IPO. There are no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to the Insider Shares, placement shares or placement warrants, which will expire worthless if we do not consummate a business combination within the allotted 12-month period (or 18 months, if extended).
Commencing on January 14, 2022, we agreed to pay to Technology & Telecommunication LLC, the Sponsor, $10,000 per month for up to 18 months for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees.
If any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity that falls within the line of business of any entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such opportunity to such entity. Our officers and directors currently have certain relevant fiduciary duties or contractual obligations that may take priority over their duties to us.
No compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid to the Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their respective affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.
Related Party Extensions Loan

On June 14, 2024, the Sponsor issued an additional unsecured promissory note to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000 and $500,000 has been borrowed. This loan is non-interest bearing and payable after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination. As of November 30, 2024, the available amount between the four loans is $2,520,474 and the Sponsor had paid an aggregate of $2,766,371 towards these loans, noting an amount of $245,897 has been over funded to cover extension fees and will be payable after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination.

| 23 |
Related Party Policy
Our board of directors has adopted an audit committee charter, providing for the review, approval and/or ratification of “related party transactions,” which are those transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC, by the audit committee. At its meetings, the audit committee shall be provided with the details of each new, existing or proposed related party transaction, including the terms of the transaction, any contractual restrictions that the company has already committed to, the business purpose of the transaction and the benefits of the transaction to the company and to the relevant related party. Any member of the committee who has an interest in the related party transaction under review by the committee shall abstain from voting on the approval of the related party transaction, but may, if so requested by the chairman of the committee, participate in some or all of the committee’s discussions of the related party transaction. Upon completion of its review of the related party transaction, the committee may determine to permit or to prohibit the related party transaction. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee, present at a meeting at which a quorum is present, will be required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to the Sponsor, officers or directors, or our or any of their affiliates.
These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer. To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of the Sponsor, officers or directors unless we, or a committee of independent directors, have obtained an opinion from either an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
Except as provided herein, no finder’s fees, reimbursements, consulting fee, monies in respect of any payment of a loan or other compensation will be paid by us to the Sponsor, officers or directors or any affiliate of the Sponsor, officers or directors prior to, for services rendered to us prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, the following payments will be made to the Sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates, none of which will be made from the proceeds of this offering held in the trust account prior to the completion of our initial business combination:
| ● | Repayment of up to an aggregate of $300,000 in loans made to us by the Sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses; |
| ● | Payment to Technology & Telecommunication LLC, the Sponsor, of $10,000 per month, for up to 12 months (subject to a six-month extension), for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support; |
| ● | Reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination; and |
| ● | Repayment of non-interest-bearing loans which may be made by the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the terms of which (other than as described above) have not been determined nor have any written agreements been executed with respect thereto. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of our initial business combination. The units would be identical to the placement units. |
Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates.
Director Independence
Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our board of directors be independent. For a description of the director independence, see “- Part III, Item 10 - Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance”.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Technology & Telecommunication Acquisition Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
Going Concern Matter
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company expects to incur significant cost in its pursuit to complete the business combination and the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOVEMBER 30, 2024
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations
Technology & Telecommunication Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Cayman Islands on November 8, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. 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. TETE Technologies Inc. is a Cayman Island exempted company formed on June 16, 2023. It was formed to be the surviving company in connection with a contemplated business combination. It has no principal operations or revenue producing activities.
The Company has entered into plan of merger, dated as of August 2, 2023 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement” or “Business Combination Agreement”), which provides for a Business Combination between the Company and Bradbury Capital Holdings Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdings”).
The aggregate consideration
for the Acquisition Merger is $
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination will be effected in two steps: (i) TETE will reincorporate in the Cayman Islands by merging with and into TETE TECHNOLOGIES INC, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of TETE, with the Company remaining as the surviving publicly traded entity (the “Reincorporation Merger”); (ii) after the Reincorporation Merger, TETE INTERNATIONAL INC (“Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, will be merged with and into Holdings, resulting in Holdings being a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition Merger”).
As of November 30, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from November 8, 2021 (inception) through November 30, 2024 relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial 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 Company has selected November 30 as its fiscal year end.
The
registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 14, 2022. On January 20, 2022,
the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of units (“Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares
included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $
The
Initial Public Offering transaction costs amounted to $
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an
aggregate of units (the “Private Placement Units”) to Technology & Telecommunication LLC (the “Sponsor”)
at a purchase price of $ per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $
On
January 20, 2022, the underwriters purchased an additional Option Units pursuant to the exercise of the over-allotment option.
The Option Units were sold at an offering price of $ per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 20, 2022, an amount of $
The
Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering
and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward
consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market
value equal to at least
The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholders meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $ per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.

The
Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $
If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Certificate of Incorporation will provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.
The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
If
the Company has not completed a Business Combination within 12 months (or 15 months, or 18 months, as applicable from the closing of
the Initial Public Offering (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose
of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a
per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the
funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to pay taxes (less up to $
The holders of the Founders Shares have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the holders of Founder Shares acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($).

Going Concern and Management’s Plan
The significant cost in pursuit of the Company’s acquisition plans and upcoming mandatory liquidation date bring if do not complete the Business Combination within the applicable time frame noted below raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company currently lacks the liquidity it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be at least one year from the date that the financial statements are issued as it expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. Management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such an additional condition also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The Company’s consolidated financial statement includes the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC.
Emerging Growth Company
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 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 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
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. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash
equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company had $
Cash and investments Held in Trust Account
As
of November 30, 2024 and 2023, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in the money market. The amount of
assets held in Trust Account is $
Income Taxes
The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of 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 consolidated financial statement 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.
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the consolidated financial statement 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 determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of November 30, 2024 and 2023 no 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 from inception to November 30, 2024.

All
of the Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for
the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer
in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate
of incorporation. In accordance with ASC 480, conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A 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. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve
the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although
the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that currently, the Company will not redeem its public
shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (shareholders’ equity) to be less than $
As of November 30, 2024 and 2023, and , respectively of Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding are subject to possible redemption.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution
which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $
Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and warrants issued as components of the Private Placement Units (the “Placement Warrants”) since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.
The Company’s consolidated statements of operations include a presentation of income per share for ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income per share. Net income (per ordinary share, basic and diluted, for redeemable Class A ordinary shares is calculated by dividing the net income allocable to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, by the weighted average number of redeemable Class A ordinary shares outstanding since original issuance. Net income per ordinary share, basic and diluted, for non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares is calculated by dividing net income allocable to non-redeemable ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of non-redeemable ordinary shares outstanding for the periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
The Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company’s cash and investments in trust are classified within
Level 1 as these securities are traded on an active public market. As of November 30, 2024 and 2023 the Company held approximately $
Recent Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted . The Company decided to early adopt and there was not a significant impact as result of the adoption.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statement .
Note 3 —Initial Public Offering
Pursuant
to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold Units at a purchase price of $ per Unit generating gross proceeds to
the Company in the amount of $
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an
aggregate of units (the “Private Placement Units”) to Technology & Telecommunication, LLC (the “Sponsor”)
at a purchase price of $ per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $
A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Units was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Units will be worthless.
The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.

Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion 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 Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration 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 completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriters Agreement

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 covering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Share of Class A Ordinary shares Equals or Exceeds $ — Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:
| ● | in whole and not in part; | |
| ● | at
a price of $ | |
| ● | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period to each warrant holder; and | |
| ● | if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganization, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to warrant holders. |
If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.
The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering.

Note 8 — Segment Information
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 for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics, formation and operational costs and interest earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account which include the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account and formation and operational costs. The CODM reviews interest earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. Formation and operational costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business 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
