9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed
under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified
in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and
chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December
31, 2024, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of
December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
We
do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure
controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all
our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures is also based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.

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 U.S. 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
U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors,
and
(3)
provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2024. In making these assessments, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission 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 December 31, 2024 ,
due to the material weakness in our internal controls as a result of inadequate segregation of duties within accounting processes
due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting and record
keeping.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation
report by our independent registered public accounting firm, regarding internal control over financial reporting. As a smaller reporting
company, our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the
SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No
changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange
Act) during the year ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.

Director
Independence
Nasdaq
requires that a majority of our board must be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person
other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion
of the company’s board of directors would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out
the responsibilities of a director.
Lin
Bao, Robin H. Karlsen and Julianne Huh are our independent directors. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings
at which only independent directors are present. Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained
from independent parties. Any affiliated transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested directors.
Executive
Officer and Director Compensation
No
compensation will be paid to our Initial Shareholders, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to or in
connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, 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 independent directors will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Initial
Shareholders, officers, directors or our or their affiliates.
After
the completion of our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us, may be paid consulting, management,
or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being 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 business combination.
It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business
to determine executive and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommenced, to
the board of directors for determination, either by a 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 the 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 a party to any
agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.
Committees
of the Board of Directors
Audit
Committee
We
have established an audit committee of the board of directors. Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh serve as members of our audit
committee. Lin Bao chairs the audit committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three
members of the audit committee all of whom must be independent. Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen and Julianne Huh are independent.
25
Member
of the audit committee is financially literate and our board of directors has determined that Lin Bao qualifies as an “audit committee
financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.
Responsibilities
of the audit committee include:
●
the
appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm
and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;
●
pre-approving
all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm or any other registered public
accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;
●
reviewing
and discussing with the independent registered public accounting firm all relationships the auditors have with us in order to evaluate
their continued independence;
●
setting
clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent registered public accounting firm;
●
setting
clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
●
obtaining
and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing the independent auditor’s
internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer
review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within, the preceding
five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues;
●
reviewing
and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC
prior to us entering into such transaction; and
●
reviewing
with management, the independent registered public accounting firm, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory
or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published
reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting
standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
Compensation
Committee
The
members of our Compensation Committee are Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh. Dr. Julianne Huh chairs the compensation committee.
We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which detail the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:
●
reviewing
and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation,
evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the
remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation in executive session at which the Chief Executive Officer
is not present;
●
reviewing
and approving the compensation of all of our other officers;
●
reviewing
our executive compensation policies and plans;
●
implementing
and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
●
assisting
management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;
●
approving
all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;
●
producing
a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and
●
reviewing,
evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.
26
The
charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant,
legal counsel or other adviser and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser.
However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation
committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
Nominating
Committee
Our
nominating committee consists of Lin Bao, Robin H. Karlsen, and Julianne Huh, each of whom is an independent director under Nasdaq’s
listing standards. Robin H. Karlsen chairs the nominating committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection
of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members,
management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.
Guidelines
for Selecting Director Nominees
The
guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:
●
should
have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;
●
should
possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the board of directors and bring
a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and
●
should
have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the shareholders.
The
Nominating Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background, integrity
and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require
certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and
will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating
committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.
Code
of Conduct and Ethics
We
have adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers, and employees in accordance with applicable federal
securities laws. We filed a copy of our form of Code of Ethics and our audit committee charter as exhibits to the registration statement
in connection with our IPO. You will be able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at
www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose
any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K. See “ Where You Can
Find Additional Information .”
Compensation
Recovery and Clawback Policies
Under
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the event of misconduct that results in a financial restatement that would have reduced a previously paid
incentive amount, we can recoup those improper payments from our executive officers. The SEC also recently adopted rules which direct
national stock exchanges to require listed companies to implement policies intended to recoup bonuses paid to executives if we are found
to have misstated its financial results.
We
have adopted a compensation recovery policy (the “Clawback Policy”) effective as of November 30, 2023 that complies with
the Nasdaq’s new clawback rules promulgated under the SEC’s Rule 10D-1.
The
Clawback Policy provides for the mandatory recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from our current and former executive
officers as defined in the Rule (“Covered Executives”) in the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement
due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. The recovery of such compensation
applies regardless of whether a Covered Executive engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement of an accounting
restatement. Under the Clawback Policy, our board of directors may recoup from the Covered Executives erroneously awarded incentive compensation
received within a lookback period of the three completed fiscal years preceding the date on which we are required to prepare an accounting
restatement.
The
foregoing description of the Clawback Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions
of the Clawback Policy, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 97.1 to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2023 and is incorporated herein by reference.
27
Conflicts
of Interest
Under
Cayman Islands law, directors and officers owe the following fiduciary duties:
●
duty
to act in good faith in what the director or officer believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole;
●
duty
to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose;
●
directors
should not improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion;
●
duty
not to put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests;
and
●
duty
to exercise independent judgment.
In
addition to the above, directors also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement
to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill, and experience that may reasonably be expected of a
person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill
and experience which that director has.
As
set out above, directors have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing,
or to otherwise benefit as a result of their position. However, in some instances what would otherwise be a breach of this duty can be
forgiven and/or authorized in advance by the shareholders provided that there is full disclosure by the directors. This can be done by
way of permission granted in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or alternatively by shareholder approval
at general meetings.
Accordingly,
as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business
opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise when our board evaluates
a particular business opportunity with respect to the above-listed criteria. We cannot assure you that any of the above-mentioned conflicts
will be resolved in our favor. Furthermore, each of our officers and directors currently has and may in the future have fiduciary obligations
to other businesses, including other blank check companies similar to our company, of which they are now or may in the future be officers
or directors. To the extent they identify business opportunities which may be suitable for the entities to which they owe fiduciary obligations,
our officers and directors will honor those fiduciary obligations. Accordingly, it is possible they may not present opportunities to
us that otherwise may be attractive to us unless the entities to which they owe fiduciary obligations and any successors to such entities
have declined to accept such opportunities.
In
order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, each of our officers and directors
has contractually agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with us, until the earliest of a business combination, our liquidation or such
time as he ceases to be an officer or director, to present to our company for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity,
any suitable business opportunity which may reasonably be required to be presented to us, subject to any fiduciary or contractual obligations
he might have.

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 our Initial Shareholders, officers, or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking
firm, or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions, and the approval of a majority of our disinterested independent
directors that the business combination is fair to our company (or shareholders) from a financial point of view. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that, subject to fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands
law, we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered
to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually
permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue.
Our
officers and directors, as well as our Initial Shareholders, have agreed, pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with
us, (i) to vote any Founder Shares and Private Shares held by them in favor of any proposed business combination and (ii) not to redeem
such shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or any amendment to our charter
documents prior to the consummation of our initial business combination or sell any shares to us in a tender offer in connection with
a proposed initial business combination.
29
Limitation
on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification
of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public
policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and
restated memorandum and articles of association provides for indemnification of our (former and existing) officers and directors (“Indemnified
Persons”) to the maximum extent permitted by law against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or
liabilities incurred or sustained in or about the conduct of the company’s business or affairs or in the execution or discharge
of the Indemnified Person’s duties, powers, authorities or discretions. This includes all costs, expenses, losses or liabilities
incurred by the Indemnified Person in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
proceedings (whether threatened, pending or completed) concerning the company or its affairs in any court or tribunal, whether in the
Cayman Islands or elsewhere. However, no Indemnified Person shall be indemnified in respect of any matter arising out of his own actual
fraud, willful default or willful neglect. We may purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that
insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures
us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
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.
Executive
Officers and Director Compensation
No
executive officer has received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. 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 or directors
or any affiliate of our Sponsor, officers or directors, 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.
Compensation
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None
of our officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one
or more officers serving on our board of directors.

Item
13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
Ordinary
Shares
Prior
to the IPO, we issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each to Han Huang, who is the director of our Sponsor.
On May 11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and, on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide
the ordinary shares of $1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each and, as a result, the Sponsor held 500,000,000
ordinary shares of $0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor,
the repurchase resulting in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 Founder Shares were issued to the
Sponsor pursuant to a securities subscription agreement. Simultaneously, the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor
were repurchased by us. These share transactions have been retroactively adjusted.
As
of May 8, 2023, $25,000 was included as a subscription receivable. On September 15, 2023, we received $25,000 from the Sponsor in cash.
The Sponsor transferred 152,000 of those ordinary shares among our then-chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and three independent
directors at their original purchase price pursuant to executed securities assignment agreements, effective as of May 25, 2023.
On
October 20, 2023, we capitalized an amount equal to $28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account and appropriated such
sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $0.0001 per Founder Share) 287,500
unissued ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value, and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000
shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’
over-allotment was exercised in full.
Subject
to certain limited exceptions, the Initial Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell their Founder Shares until six months
after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to initial business combination, we
consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders having
the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
32
Promissory
Note — Related Party
On
May 1, 2023, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to us, pursuant to which we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount
of $750,000, to be used for payment of costs related to the IPO. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December
31, 2023, (ii) the consummation of the IPO, or (iii) the date on which we determine to not proceed with the IPO. As of December 6, 2023,
we had borrowed $210,151 under the promissory note with the Sponsor. This promissory note was fully repaid on December 7, 2023. There
was no balance due as of December 31, 2024.
Extensions
Loan — Related Party
On
December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025, the Sponsor and United Hydrogen caused the first and second monthly extension fee of $227,700
(equivalent to $0.033 per Public Share), respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, to extend the date by which we have to
consummate a business combination from December 6, 2024 to February 6, 2025. On February 6, 2025 and March 6, 2025, the Sponsor and United
Hydrogen caused the third and fourth monthly extension fee of $150,000, respectively, to be deposited into the Trust Account, to further
extend the deadline from February 6, 2024 to April 6, 2025. The deposit of the first, second, third, and fourth monthly extension fee
is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note (each, a “Monthly Extension Promissory Note”). The first and second Monthly
Extension Promissory Notes are in the principal amount of $227,700 each, shared equally between the Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($113,850
each). The third and fourth Monthly Extension Promissory Notes are in the principal amount of $150,000, also shared equally between the
Sponsor and United Hydrogen ($75,000 each). Each Monthly Extension Promissory Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the
consummation of the Business Combination. The Sponsor and United Hydrogen have the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Monthly
Extension Promissory Note, in whole or in part, into our private units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, each consisting of one ordinary
share and one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share of our Company, immediately prior to the consummation of the Business
Combination, by providing us with written notices of their intention to convert the Monthly Extension Promissory Note at least two business
days prior to the closing of the Business Combination. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the note payable balance was $227,700 and $0,
respectively.
Administrative
Services Arrangement
The
Sponsor has agreed, commencing from the date that our securities were first listed on Nasdaq, through the earlier of our consummation
of an initial business combination and our liquidation, to make available to us certain general and administrative services, including
office space, utilities, and administrative services, as we may require from time to time. We have agreed to pay to the Sponsor, $10,000
per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 24 months, for such administrative services. As of December 31, 2024 and
2023, the unpaid balance was $120,000 and $0, respectively, which was included in amount due to related party balance.
Related
Party Loans
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor, the affiliates of the Sponsor, or our officers
and directors may, but are not obligated to, make loans from time to time to us to fund certain capital requirements (“Working
Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation
of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation
of a business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. In the event that a business combination does
not close, we may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in
the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no amounts outstanding
under any Working Capital Loans.
33
Due
to Related Company
As
of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had a total amount due to related company of $289,780 and $0, from a related party, respectively,
for the payment of costs related to general and administrative services, the Initial Public Offering, and administrative services agreement.
The balance of which $50,000 was deposited in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2024 for the January 13, 2025 extension payment. The
balance is unsecured, interest-free and has no fixed terms of repayment.
Related
Party Policy
All
ongoing and future transactions between us and any member of our management team or his or her respective affiliates will be on terms
believed by us at that time, based upon other similar arrangements known to us, to be no less favorable to us than are available from
unaffiliated third parties. It is our intention to obtain estimates from unaffiliated third parties for similar goods or services to
ascertain whether such transactions with affiliates are on terms that are no less favorable to us than are otherwise available from such
unaffiliated third parties. If a transaction with an affiliated third party were found to be on terms less favorable to us than with
an unaffiliated third party, we would not engage in such transaction.
We
are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our Initial Shareholders, officers
or directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a target that is affiliated with our Initial Shareholders,
officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm
or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions that our initial business combination is fair to our company (or
shareholders) from a financial point of view.
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.”

Our
audit committee was formed in connection with the effectiveness of our registration statement for our IPO. As a result, the audit committee
did not pre-approve all of the foregoing services, although any services rendered prior to the formation of our audit committee were
approved by our board of directors. Since the formation of our audit committee, and on a going-forward basis, the audit committee has
and will pre-approve all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and
terms thereof (subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by
the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit).

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance
sheets of Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of
operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, and for the period from April
27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023 , and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2024 and December 31, 203, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, and for the
period from April 27, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
Going Concern Matter
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, 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 audit 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.

HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
Aimei
Health Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on April 27, 2023 .
The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Although there is no restriction or limitation
on what industry its target operates in, it is the Company’s intention to pursue prospective targets that are focused on healthcare
innovation. The Company anticipates targeting what are traditionally known as “small cap” companies domiciled in North America,
Europe and/or the Asia Pacific regions that are developing assets in the biopharmaceutical, medical technology/medical device and diagnostics
space which aligns with its management team’s experience in operating health care companies and in drug and device technology development
as well as diagnostic and other services.
As
of December 31, 2024, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activities through December 31, 2024 related to the Company’s
formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). Since the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s activity has been
limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates. The Company will not generate any operating revenue 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 on
cash in bank and assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The
Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the
Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
The
Company’s sponsor is Aimei Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement
for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 30, 2023. On December 6, 2023, the Company consummated
its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units
being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $ 10.00 per Unit, which includes full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment
option of 900,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $ 69,000,000 (the “Initial Public Offering”), and incurring offering
costs of $ 2,070,665 and $ 690,000 for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 7). The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option
to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, if any. On December 6, 2023,
the over-allotment option was exercised in full.
Simultaneously
with the consummation of the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 332,000 units
(the “Private Units”) to the Sponsor at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $ 3,320,000 (the “Private
Placement”). (see Note 4).
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 6, 2023, an amount of $ 69,690,000 ($ 10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the
sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust
account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States and held as cash items or may be invested only in U.S. government
treasury bills, notes and bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7
under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i)
the consummation of a business combination, or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders,
as described below.
The
Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion
of its initial business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial business combination
or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed business combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of
a business combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of how
they vote for the business combination. If a vote is held to approve such an initial business combination, the Company will consummate
such initial business combination only if the Company has the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote
at a general meeting of the Company.
The
shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially
$ 10.10 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company
to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced
by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion
of a business combination with respect to the Company’s rights.
F- 7
AIMEI
HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
If
a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company
will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and
Regulation 14E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which regulate issuer tender offers,
and file tender offer documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to completing its initial
business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination as is
required under the SEC’s proxy rules.
The
Sponsor has agreed (i) to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed business combination, (ii) not to redeem any shares
in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or any amendment to the Company’s charter
prior to the consummation of its initial business combination and (iii) not to sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection
with any proposed business combination. However, the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with
respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its business combination.
The
Company initially had 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public
Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination by up to 12 additional months through 12 one-month
extensions of time, as further provided in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) to consummate
a business combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within 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 five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares which redemption will completely extinguish
public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject
to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s
remaining holders of ordinary shares and its board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution
of the Company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements
of applicable law.
The
underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission 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 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 offering price per Unit ($ 10.00 ).
The
Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products
sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce
the amounts in the Trust Account to below $ 10.10 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised
in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and
except as to any claims under its indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor
will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether
the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities
of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations and therefore believes the Sponsor will be unlikely
to satisfy its indemnification obligations if it is required to do so. However, the Company believes the likelihood of the Sponsor having
to indemnify the Trust Account is limited because the Company will endeavor to have all vendors and prospective target businesses as
well as other entities execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held
in the Trust Account.
On
June 19, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) for a business
combination with (i) United Hydrogen Group Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“United
Hydrogen”), (ii) United Hydrogen Global Inc., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Pubco”),
(iii) United Hydrogen Victor Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Pubco (“First Merger Sub”); (iv) United Hydrogen Worldwide Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited
liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Second Merger Sub” and, together with Pubco and
First Merger Sub, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity” and, collectively, the “Acquisition Entities”);
and (v) Aimei Investment Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, in the capacity as, from and after the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), the representative for the Company and its shareholders (the “Sponsor”).
F- 8
AIMEI
HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) First Merger Sub will merge with and into the United
Hydrogen (the “First Merger”), whereby the separate existence of First Merger Sub will cease, and United Hydrogen will be
the surviving corporation of the First Merger and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; and (ii) following confirmation of the effective
filing of the First Merger, and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, Second Merger Sub will merge with and into
the Company (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), whereby the separate existence
of Second Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will be the surviving corporation of the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Pubco.
On
February 6, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust
Agreement with Continental Stock Transfer & Trusts Company (“Trustee”). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the
amount of funds to be deposited into the trust account managed by the Trustee (the “Trust Account”) in connection with extending
the timeframe within which the Company must consummate its initial business combination (“Extension”), is adjusted from $ 0.033
per each share sold in its IPO (the “Public Share”) (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to $ 150,000 for all outstanding
Public Shares (for each monthly extension).
As
of the date of this report, the Company has extended four times by an additional one month each time, and so it now has until April 6,
2025 to consummate a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association
and the trust agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, in order to extend the time available
for the Company to consummate its initial business combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, must deposit
into the Trust Account $ 150,000 on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On each of December 11, 2024 and January 13, 2025,
the Company has deposited $ 227,700 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination
until February 6, 2025. On each of February 6, 2025 and March 6, 2025, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 150,000 into the Trust
Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until April 6, 2025.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2024, the Company had $ 28,208 in its bank account, $ 73,784,549 in its Trust Account and working capital deficit of $ 747,377 .
The
Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through (i) the payment of $ 25,000
from the Sponsor to cover certain offering costs on the Company’s behalf in exchange for issuance of Founder Shares (see Note 5),
and (ii) a loan from the Sponsor of approximately $ 210,151 under the Note (as defined in Note 5). The Company has repaid the note in
full on December 7, 2023. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied
through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor,
or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (as
defined in Note 5). As of December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.
Over
the period of time to complete a business combination, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying
existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on
prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring,
negotiating and consummating the business combination.

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Going
Concern Consideration
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 ,” management
has determined that if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time
from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the requirement that the Company cease all operations, redeem the Public Shares and

NOTE
2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of presentation
These
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the 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 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 financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of 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 as of the date of the financial statements, which management considered in
formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results
could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash
and cash equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company did no t have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the cash balance was
$ 28,208 and $ 580,717 , respectively.
Cash
held in trust account
On
July 16, 2024, the Company instructed their trust custodian to liquidate their positions in marketable securities and invest 100% of
the trust account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. As of December 31, 2024, all the assets held in the Trust Account were
held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account. As of December 31, 2023, substantially all the assets held in the Trust Account were
held in U.S. Treasury Bills. The Company accounts for its marketable securities under ASC 320, where securities are presented at fair
value on the balance sheets and with gains or losses, if any, presented on the statements of operations. As of December 31, 2024 and
2023, the assets held in Trust Account was $ 73,784,549 and $ 69,889,848 , respectively.
Ordinary
shares subject to possible redemption
All
of the 6,900,000 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 Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480 “ Distinguishing Liabilities from
Equity ”, conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either
within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s
control) are classified as temporary equity. 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 $ 5,000,001 . However, the threshold in its charter would not change the nature of
the underlying shares as redeemable and thus Public Shares would be required to be disclosed outside of permanent equity. Accordingly,
as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 6,900,000 and 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at the redemption amount, respectively,
were presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance
sheets.
Income
taxes
The
Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ,” (“ASC 740”)
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 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
740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the 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’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s
major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income
tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and no amounts were accrued for interest and penalties
during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. 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, there was no provision
for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Net
income per share
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 loss per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering
and rights issued as components of the Private Units (the “Private Rights”) since the issuance of shares underlying the rights
is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods.

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 $ 250,000 . As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had not
experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. As of December
31, 2024 and 2023, $ 0 and $ 330,717 was not insured, respectively.
Fair
value of financial instruments
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:

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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
following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December

Recent
issued 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.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material

3 – INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On
December 6, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 Units (including the issuance of 900,000 Units as
a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its over-allotment option), at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 69,000,000 .
Each Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right (“Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive
one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, so the holder must hold
rights in multiples of 5 in order to receive shares for all of the rights upon closing of a business combination.
NOTE
4 – PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 332,000 Private Units at a price of $ 10.00 per
Private Unit ($ 3,320,000 in the aggregate).
The
proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be added to the net proceeds from the Offering held in the Trust Account. The Private
Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except that Private Units (including the Private Rights) will not
be transferable, assignable or saleable until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination except to permitted
transferees. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the
Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private
Rights will expire worthless.
NOTE
5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder
Shares
Prior
to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $ 1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May
11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary
shares of $ 1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $ 0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares
of $ 0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting
in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor (up to 187,500
of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant
to a securities subscription agreement and the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the company,
the shares have been retroactively adjusted. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $ 28.75 standing to the credit
of the share premium account and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full
par value of $ 0.0001 per founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $ 0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully
paid to the Sponsor, resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are
not subject to forfeiture as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively
own approximately 20 % of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders
do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).
Subject
to certain limited exceptions, the initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell their founder shares until six months
after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to initial business
combination, the Company consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all
of the shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Promissory
Note – Related Party
On
May 1, 2023, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may
borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $ 750,000 , to be used for payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering. The Note
is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, or
(iii) the date on which the Company determines to not proceed with the Initial Public Offering. These amounts were repaid upon completion
of the Initial Public Offering out of the $ 550,000 of Initial Public Offering proceeds that has been allocated for the payment of Initial
Public Offering expenses. As of December 6, 2023, the Company has borrowed $ 210,151 under the Note. The Note was fully repaid on December
7, 2023. There was no outstanding balance due as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Extensions
Loan – Related Party
The
Company will have to consummate a business combination by April 6, 2025. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able
to consummate a business combination within 12 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination
up to twelve times by an additional one month each time to complete a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s
memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company, both as amended, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a business combination, the Sponsor
its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account the
applicable extension fees, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each extension. The Sponsor or its 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 the Company 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 the Company’s initial business combination or at the lender’s discretion,
converted upon consummation of the business combination into additional private units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit.
On
December 11, 2024, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $ 227,700 to the Sponsor and United Hydrogen, pursuant
to which such amount had been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business
combination until January 6, 2025. The notes are non-interest bearing and are payable upon the closing of a business combination. In
addition, the notes may be converted, at the lender’s discretion, into additional Private Units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the note payable balance was $ 227,700 and $ 0 , respectively.

In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor,
or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working

shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On May 1, 2023, The Company entered into a subscription agreement for founder shares
with the Sponsor which is recorded as subscription receivable. The subscription agreement was amended and restated on May 24, 2023. Prior
to the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 50,000 ordinary shares of $ 1.00 par value each to Han Huang. On May
11, 2023, Han Huang transferred those ordinary shares to the Sponsor and on May 15, 2023, the Sponsor resolved to sub-divide the ordinary
shares of $ 1.00 par value each into ordinary shares of $ 0.0001 par value each and as such the Sponsor held 500,000,000 ordinary shares
of $ 0.0001 each. On May 15, 2023, the directors resolved to repurchase 498,562,500 ordinary shares from the Sponsor, the repurchase resulting
in the Sponsor holding 1,437,500 ordinary shares. On May 25, 2023, 1,437,500 founder shares were issued to the Sponsor pursuant to a
securities subscription agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $ 25,000 (up to 187,500 of which are subject to forfeiture depending
on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised) pursuant to a securities subscription agreement and
the 1,437,500 ordinary shares previously held by the Sponsor were repurchased by the Company, the shares having been retroactively adjusted.
As of May 8, 2023, $ 25,000 was included as a subscription receivable. On September 15, 2023, the Company received $ 25,000 in cash. The
Sponsor transferred 152,000 of those ordinary shares among the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and three
independent director nominees at their original purchase price pursuant to executed securities assignment agreements, effective as of
May 25, 2023. On October 20, 2023, the Company capitalized an amount equal to $ 28.75 standing to the credit of the share premium account
and appropriated such sum and applied it on behalf of the Sponsor towards paying up in full (as to the full par value of $ 0.0001 per
founder share) 287,500 unissued ordinary shares of $ 0.0001 par value and allotted such shares credited as fully paid to the Sponsor,
resulting in 1,725,000 ordinary shares being issued and outstanding. 225,000 shares of such ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture
as the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised in full. The initial shareholders will collectively own approximately 20 % of
the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase
any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Units and underlying securities).
As
of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as a result of the closing of the Initial Public Offering and full exercise of the underwriters’
over-allotment option, there were 2,126,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible
redemption.
Rights
Each
holder of a right will receive one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a business combination, even if the holder
of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a business combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange
of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares
upon consummation of a business combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for
by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which the
Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share
consideration the holders of the ordinary share will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis and each
holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive 1/5th of one share underlying each right (without
paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held
by affiliates of the Company).
Additionally,
in no event will the Company be required to net cash to settle the rights. 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 rights will not receive any
of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the
Trust Account with respect to such rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Registration
Rights
The
holders of the insider shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any securities issued in payment
of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to
or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three
demands that the Company register such securities at any time after the Company consummates a business combination. In addition, the
holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation
of a business combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
The
initial shareholders and their permitted transferees can demand that the Company register the founder shares, the Private Units and the
underlying Private Shares, and the units issuable upon conversion of working capital loans and the underlying ordinary shares and rights,
pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date requiring the Company to register such securities for resale.
The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after consummation of an
initial business combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating
in the Initial Public Offering may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective
date of the registration statement. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration
statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a business combination; provided that any holder that is affiliated with an
underwriter participating in the Initial Public Offering may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year
period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement.
Representative
Shares
The
Company issued 69,000 ordinary shares to the representative (and/or its designees) (the “representative shares”) as part
of representative compensation as the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full. The representative shares have been
deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement
of sales in the Initial Public Offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 (e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will
not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the
securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering,
nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement
of sales in the Initial Public Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their officers,
partners, registered persons or affiliates.

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 Financial 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,
which includes general and administrative expenses and interest earned on assets held in Trust Account which are included in the accompanying
statements of operations.
The
key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are earned on assets held in Trust Account and general and administrative
expenses. The CODM reviews earned on assets 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. General and administrative
expenses 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 general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce
all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
