Management’s Annual 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 consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in

accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 consolidated

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 consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations,

internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our consolidated 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 December 31, 2022.

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).

on our assessments and those criteria, management determined that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as

of December 31, 2022.

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.

Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts

of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee).

Related party transactions are defined

as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we

or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director,

to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director

or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity).

A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has

interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively.

Conflicts of interest may also arise if

a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

also require each of our directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that

elicits information about related party transactions.

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.

further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated

with any of our insiders, officers or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm and the

approval of a majority of our disinterested and independent directors (if we have any at that time) that the business combination is

fair to our unaffiliated stockholders from a financial point of view.

In no event will our insiders, or any of the members of our management

team be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order

to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

listing standards require that within one year of the listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Global Market we have at least three independent

directors and that a majority of our board of directors be independent.

An “independent director” 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.

or director has a fiduciary or contractual obligation.

After the closing of the Business Combination, members

of our management team who remain with WaveTech may be paid consulting, management or other fees from New WaveTech with any and all amounts

being fully disclosed to its stockholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation or tender off materials, as applicable,

furnished to its stockholders.

No compensation of any kind, including finder’s

and consulting fees, will be paid to the Sponsor, officers and directors, or 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 their 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.

All ongoing and future transactions

between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable

to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties.

Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority

of our uninterested independent directors, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel.

We will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested independent directors determine

that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction

from unaffiliated third parties.

Related Party Policy

Our Code of Ethics requires

us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except

under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee).

Related party transactions are defined as transactions in

which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries

is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner

of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct

or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity).

A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her

work objectively and effectively.

Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper

personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

We also require each of our

directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about

related party transactions.

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 our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our insiders,

officers or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm and the approval of a majority of

our disinterested and independent directors (if we have any at that time) that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated stockholders

from a financial point of view.

In no event will our insiders, or any of the members of our management team be paid any finder’s

fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of

our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

Director Independence

Nasdaq listing standards

require that within one year of the listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Global Market we have at least three independent directors

and that a majority of our board of directors be independent.

An “independent director” 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.

Our Board of Directors has determined that Ms.

Welpe and Mr.

are each an “independent director” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules.

Additionally, we will only

could be obtained from independent parties.

Any related-party transactions must be approved by our audit committee and a majority

of disinterested directors.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021

The Company will provide the

holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their

Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the

Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer.

The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business

Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company.

The Public Stockholders 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 $ 10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata

interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable).

All of the Public Shares

contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation,

if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s Business Combination and in connection with certain

amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the

instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption

value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting

Stock in conjunction with any such amendment.

Initial Stockholders 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.

The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to its business combination marketing

agreement fee (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 residual assets

remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $ 10.00 per shares held in the Trust Account.

Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities,

Moreover, in the event that an

accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements waiving any

right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020,

the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic which continues to spread

throughout the United States and the world.

As of the date the financial statement was issued, there was considerable uncertainty around

the expected duration of this pandemic.

Management is continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company has concluded

that while it is reasonably possible that COVID-19 could have a negative effect on identifying a target company for a Business Combination,

the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of this financial statement.

The financial statement does not include any

adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 30, 2021, the

Company had a cash balance of $ 1,200,956 and a working capital surplus of $ 1,393,166 .

Further, the Company has incurred and expects to

continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans.

The Company has no revenue, and its business plan

is dependent on the completion of a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

If the Company is unable to compete a Business

Combination within the Combination Period, it must liquidate.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability

to continue as a going concern within a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of the financial

to its deferred underwriting fees (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination

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

and Uncertainties

continues to evaluate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the military conflict in Ukraine on the financial markets and on the industry,

and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the pandemic and the conflict could have an effect on the Company’s

financial position, results of its operations and the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, the specific impacts

are not readily determinable as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements do not include

any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law.

The IR Act provides for,

among other things, a new U.S.

federal 1 % excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S.

domestic corporations and

domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023.

The excise tax is imposed

on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased.

The amount of the excise tax is generally

1 % of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase.

However, for purposes of calculating the excise

tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value

of stock repurchases during the same taxable year.

In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax.

Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the

abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise,

may be subject to the excise tax.

Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business

Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions

and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii)

the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued

not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content

of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury.

In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the

redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined.

The foregoing could cause a reduction

in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

of December 31, 2022, the Company had operating cash of $ 309,881 , restricted cash of $ 213,182 (excess permitted withdrawal), and a working

capital deficit of $ 3,234,946 .

Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its

financing and acquisition plans.

The Company has no revenue, and its business plan is dependent on the completion of a Business Combination

within the Combination Period.

If the Company is unable to compete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, it must liquidate.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021

The Company complies with the

accounting and reporting requirements of ASC 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.

There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties

related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties for the

period from May 27, 2021 (date of inception) to December 31, 2021.

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 subject to income tax examinations

by major taxing authorities since inception.

The provision for income taxes

was deemed to be de minimis for the period May 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021.

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its

common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480.

Shares of common stock subject to mandatory redemption

(if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value.

Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common

stock that features 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) is classified as temporary equity.

At all other times, common stock is

classified as stockholders’ equity.

The Company’s Public Shares sold in the IPO feature certain redemption rights that are

considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.

Accordingly, on December

31, 2021, 7,500,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’

deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet.

Immediately upon the closing

of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from the initial book value to redemption amount value.

This method would view the end

of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security.

The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares

of common stock resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

Loss per Common Share

Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260-10-45 “Earnings per Share”, which requires presentation of both

basic and diluted loss per share on the face of the statement of operations.

The Company’s public common shares have a redemption

right, which differ from the common shares that the sponsors hold.

Accordingly, the Company has effectively two classes of shares, which

are referred to as public common shares and Founder Shares.

Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares.

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding

common shares during the period.

Accretion associated with the common stock subject to possible redemption is excluded from earnings

per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.

Dilutive loss per share excludes all

potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The Company has excluded the Rights from the calculation of diluted loss per

share because the Rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and any impact would be anti-dilutive.

As a result, diluted

net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022.

promissory note would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion,

convertible into private units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $ 10.00 per unit.

The conversion feature was analyzed

under ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion or Other Options”, the note did not include any premium or discounts.

The conversion

option did not include elements that would require bifurcation under ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The convertible

note payable and conversion feature does not meet the requirements for classification under ASC 480 and as a result is not required to

be accounted for as a liability under ASC 480.

In this case, the conversion feature embedded within the convertible promissory note does

not require bifurcation and as a result remains embedded within the debt instrument because the convertible promissory note conversion

feature does not meet the definition of a derivative as it fails the net settlement requirement.

The embedded conversion feature does

qualify as equity under ASC 815-40 as the exercise contingency is not based on an observable market or index unrelated to the issuer,

the instrument meets the fixed-for-fixed criteria under ASC 815-40-15, meets the requirements for equity classification pursuant to ASC

815-40-25-1 and 25-2 and does not meet the definition of a derivative as it fails the net settlement requirement.

Based on this analysis,

the scope exception would apply, and the embedded conversion feature would fail to satisfy the third bifurcation condition within ASC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021

Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities

reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid

in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In connection

with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained

from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would

price assets and liabilities).

The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs

and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

or liabilities.

An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient

frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs.

of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or

liabilities in markets that are not active.

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the

assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

At December 31, 2021, the assets

held in the Trust Account were held in treasury funds.

All of the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified

as trading securities

The following table presents information about the Company’s

liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation

inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

of December 31, 2021, there were 2,503,750 shares of Common Stock outstanding (excluding 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock subject to

possible redemption).

As of December 31, 2022, there were 2,283,976 shares of common stock outstanding (excluding 7,727,686 shares of

8 — Income Tax

Company’s net deferred tax asset (liabilities) are as follows:

Deferred tax assets

Net operating loss carryforward

Startup Costs

Total deferred tax assets

Valuation allowance

Deferred tax assets, net of allowance

income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from May 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021

consists of the following:

Change in valuation allowance

Income tax provision

of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a total of $ 0 and $ 60,739 , respectively, of U.S.

federal net operating loss carry overs

available to offset future taxable income.

The federal net operating loss balance in 2021 was offset in the 2022 taxable income.

December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income.

assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all

of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of

future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible.

Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies

in making this assessment.

After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty

exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance.

year ended December 31, 2022, the change in the valuation allowance was $ 371,080 .

For the period from May 27, 2021 (inception) through

December 31, 2021, the change in the valuation allowance was $ 12,755 .

reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:

Statutory federal income tax rate

Permanent book/tax difference

Change in valuation allowance

Income tax provision

Company’s effective tax rates for the periods presented differ from the expected (statutory) rates due to changes in fair value

in warrants, transaction costs associated with warrants and the recording of full valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.

Company files income tax returns in the U.S.

federal jurisdiction in various state and local jurisdictions and is subject to examination

by the various taxing authorities.
