Dividends
We
have not paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of an
initial business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital
requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination and subject to our satisfaction of the
applicable solvency test under the British Virgin Islands Business Companies Act, 2004 (as amended). The payment of any dividends subsequent
to a business combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. It is the present intention of our board
of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board of directors does not anticipate
declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate
declaring any share dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may
be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On
November 24, 2021, the Company consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 8,625,000 units (the “Units”)
(including the issuance of 1,125,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of the over-allotment option). Each Unit
consists of one ordinary share (“Ordinary Share”), one warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one-half
of one Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an Ordinary Share upon the consummation
of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $86,250,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated a private placement (“Private Placement”) of 292,250
units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,922,500. A total of $86,250,000
of the net proceeds from the sale of Units in the IPO (including the over-allotment option units) and the Private Placements on November
24, 2021 were placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders.

The
Private Units are identical to the units sold in the IPO except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions.
The holders of the Private Units have agreed (A) to vote the private shares underlying the Private Units (the “Private Shares”)
and any public shares acquired by them in favor of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment
to our certificate of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our public shares if
we do not complete our initial business combination by November 23, 2022 (or May 23, 2023, as applicable), unless we provide our public
stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their ordinary shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in
cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account
and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, (C)
not to convert any shares (including the Private Shares) into the right to receive cash from the trust account in connection with a stockholder
vote to approve our proposed initial business combination (or sell any shares they hold to us in a tender offer in connection with a
proposed initial business combination) or a vote to amend the provisions of our certificate of incorporation relating to the substance
or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by November 23,
2022 (or May 23, 2023, as applicable) and (D) that the Private Shares shall not be entitled to be redeemed for a pro rata portion of
the funds held in the trust account if a business combination is not consummated. Additionally, our insiders (and/or their designees)
have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private units or underlying securities (except to the same permitted transferees
as the insider shares and provided the transferees agree to the same terms and restrictions as the permitted transferees of the insider
shares must agree to, each as described above) until the completion of our initial business combination.
We
paid a total of $1,725,000, in underwriting discounts and commissions (not including the 3.5% deferred underwriting commission payable
at the consummation of initial business combination) and $649,588 for other costs and expenses related to our formation and the IPO.
