• Sponsor Share Conversion

  On July 6, 2026, the Sponsor converted 5,749,999 Class B ordinary shares into an equal number of Class A ordinary shares. This is a technical reclassification of existing shares.

• Non-Redemption Agreements Planned

  The company and its sponsor intend to enter into agreements with shareholders to prevent redemptions of Class A ordinary shares and secure votes for the Extension Amendment Proposal.

• Sponsor Shares as Incentive

  In exchange for commitments not to redeem and to vote for the extension, the Sponsor anticipates transferring a certain number of its Class A ordinary shares to participating investors after the business combination closes.

• Critical Extension Vote

  These agreements are expected to increase the likelihood of approving the proposal to extend the business combination deadline from July 15, 2026, to January 15, 2027, and to increase funds remaining in the trust account.
