Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, herein have the meaning given to them in the Proxy Statement and Supplement.
Proposal No. 1 – The Charter Amendment Proposal
The Company’s shareholders approved the Charter Amendment Proposal, a proposal to approve the following amendments to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Charter”): (i) that Article 50.7 of the Charter be amended and restated in its entirety to provide for the extension of the date by which the Company must complete a business combination (the “Termination Date”) up to four times from April 1, 2026 to April 1, 2027, with each extension comprised of a three-month extension period, for a total of up to twelve (12) months from the original Termination Date, provided that the Company’s sponsor or its designees cause to be deposited to the Trust Account the amount provided for in the Trust Agreement; and (ii) that the Charter be amended to provide that the Company will not withdraw any amounts out of the interest from the Trust Account to pay its dissolution expenses.

The disclosures set forth in this Item 5.07 are intended to be summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Amended Charter.
The Charter Amendment Proposal required a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary General Meeting.
The Charter Amendment Proposal has been approved by the following votes:

The Company’s shareholders approved the Trust Amendment Proposal, a proposal approve an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2025, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Agreement”) to allow the Company to extend the period of time within which it must complete a business combination from two times, each by an additional three-month period to October 1, 2026 (subject to the deposit of $575,000 into the Trust Account for each three-month extension period), to a total of four times, each by an additional three-month period (each an “Extension Period”), or April 1, 2027, provided that the Sponsor and/or its designees deposit $450,000 into the Company’s Trust Account for each Extension Period. In addition, in accordance with the Trust Amendment Proposal, the Company further agreed that if the Charter Amendment Proposal and Trust Amendment Proposal are approved, the Trust Agreement will be amended to provide that (i) if the revised extension fee is not timely deposited into the Trust Account, the Company shall have a period of thirty (30) days to pay any applicable past due payment for the extension fee and if it fails to make any applicable past due payment during the cure period, then it shall promptly liquidate the Trust Account and the property in the Trust Account shall be distributed to the public shareholders and (ii) that the Company will not withdraw any amounts out of the interest from the Trust Account to pay its dissolution expenses.

As there were sufficient votes to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal, adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting was neither necessary nor appropriate and therefore was not implemented.

Such obligation to repurchase Shares is subject to the completion of the proposed Business Combination to which it relates, provided that the Company shall not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than US$5,000,001 following such repurchases. |
