Risk Factors.
−Removed: a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to include risk factors in this Report.
−Removed: the following is a partial list of material risks, uncertainties and other factors that could have a material effect on us and our operations:
−Removed: we are a blank check company
−Removed: and an early-stage company with no revenue or basis to evaluate our ability to select a suitable business target;
−Removed: we may not be able to select
−Removed: an appropriate target business or businesses and complete our initial Business Combination in the prescribed time frame;
−Removed: our expectations around
−Removed: the performance of a prospective target business or businesses may not be realized;
−Removed: we may not be successful
−Removed: in retaining or recruiting required officers, key employees or directors following our initial Business Combination;
−Removed: our officers and directors
−Removed: may have difficulties allocating their time between our Company and other businesses and may potentially have conflicts of interest
−Removed: with our business or in approving our initial Business Combination;
−Removed: may not be able to obtain additional financing to complete our initial Business Combination or reduce the number of shareholders
−Removed: requesting redemption;
−Removed: may issue our shares to investors in connection with our initial Business Combination at a price that is less than the prevailing
−Removed: market price of our shares at that time;
−Removed: our shareholders may not
−Removed: be given the opportunity to choose the initial business target or to vote on the initial Business Combination;
−Removed: Trust Account funds may
−Removed: not be protected against third party claims or bankruptcy;
−Removed: an active market for our
−Removed: public securities may not develop and our shareholders will have limited liquidity and trading;
−Removed: our financial performance
−Removed: following a Business Combination with an entity may be negatively affected by their lack of an established record of revenue,
−Removed: cash flows and experienced management;
−Removed: there may be more competition
−Removed: to find an attractive target for an initial Business Combination, which could increase the costs associated with completing our initial
−Removed: Business Combination and may result in our inability to find a suitable target;
−Removed: changes in the market for
−Removed: directors and officers liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate and complete an initial
+Added: As a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act,
+Added: we are not required to include risk factors in this Report.
+Added: However, the following are brief descriptions of material risks, uncertainties
+Added: and other factors that could have a material effect on us and our operations:
+Added: Risks Relating to our Search for, and Consummation of or Inability
+Added: to Consummate, a Business Combination
+Added: ● we are a blank check company with no operating history and no operating
+Added: revenues, and our shareholders have a limited basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective, which is completing
+Added: an initial Business Combination;
+Added: may not be able to complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, in which case we would liquidate and redeem
+Added: our Public Shares;
+Added: may seek Business Combination opportunities with a high degree of complexity that require significant operational improvements, which
+Added: could delay or prevent us from achieving our desired results;
+Added: may be unable to obtain additional financing to complete our initial Business Combination or to fund the operations and growth of a target
+Added: business, which could compel us to restructure or abandon a particular Business Combination;
+Added: ● we may issue our Ordinary Shares to our shareholders in connection
+Added: with our initial Business Combination at a price that is less than the prevailing market price of our Ordinary Shares at that time;
+Added: Public Shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed initial Business Combination, and even if we hold a vote,
+Added: holders of our Founder Shares will participate in such vote, which means we may complete our initial Business Combination even though
+Added: a majority of our Public Shareholders do not support such a combination;
+Added: the number of SPACs evaluating targets increases, attractive targets may become scarcer and there may be more competition for attractive
+Added: targets, or such attractive targets may not be interested in consummating a Business Combination with a SPAC due to a negative public
+Added: perception of mergers involving SPACs.
+Added: This could increase the cost of our initial Business Combination and could even result in our
+Added: inability to find a target or to consummate an initial Business Combination;
+Added: may attempt to simultaneously complete Business Combinations with multiple prospective targets, which may hinder our ability to complete
+Added: our initial Business Combination and give rise to increased costs and risks that could negatively impact our operations and profitability;
+Added: may engage one or more of the Underwriters or one of their respective affiliates to provide additional services to us after the Initial
+Added: Public Offering, which may include acting as mergers and acquisitions advisor in connection with an initial Business Combination or as
+Added: placement agent in connection with a related financing transaction.
+Added: The Underwriters are entitled to receive the Deferred Fee that will
+Added: be released from the Trust Account only upon completion of an initial Business Combination.
+Added: These financial incentives may cause the
+Added: Underwriters to have potential conflicts of interest in rendering any such additional services to us after the Initial Public Offering,
+Added: including, for example, in connection with the sourcing and consummation of an initial Business Combination;
+Added: may attempt to complete our initial Business Combination with a private company about which little information is available, which
+Added: may result in a Business Combination with a company that is not as profitable as we suspected, if at all;
+Added: could be wasted on researching Business Combinations targets that are not completed, which could materially adversely affect subsequent
+Added: attempts to locate and acquire or merge with another business.
+Added: If we have not completed our initial Business Combination within the Combination
+Added: Period, our Public Shareholders may receive only the Redemption Price, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, on the liquidation
+Added: of our Trust Account and our Warrants will expire worthless;
+Added: fluctuations in inflation and interest rates in the United States and elsewhere could make it more difficult for us to consummate an
+Added: initial Business Combination;
+Added: in laws or regulations (including the adoption of policies by governing administrations), or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations,
+Added: may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination, and results of operations;
+Added: agreements related to the Initial Public Offering may be amended, or their provisions waived, without shareholder approval;
+Added: in international trade policies, tariffs and treaties affecting imports and exports may have a material adverse effect on our search
+Added: for an initial Business Combination target or the performance or business prospects of a post-Business Combination company;
+Added: developments affecting the financial services industry, including events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults or non-performance
+Added: by financial institutions, could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, or our Business Combination
+Added: incidents or attacks directed at us or third parties could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or
+Added: financial loss, as well as impact our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination;
+Added: we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements
+Added: and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial Business Combination;
+Added: we seek shareholder approval of our initial Business Combination, our Sponsor and Management Team have agreed to vote in favor of such
+Added: initial Business Combination, regardless of how our Public Shareholders vote.
+Added: As such, under certain circumstances, we may not need any
+Added: Public Shares in addition to Founder Shares to be voted in favor of our initial Business Combination to approve an initial Business Combination;
+Added: Public Shareholders’ only opportunity to effect their investment decision regarding a potential Business Combination may be limited
+Added: to the exercise of their right to redeem their Public Shares from us for cash;
+Added: ability of our Public Shareholders to redeem their Public Shares for cash may make our financial condition unattractive to potential
+Added: Business Combination targets, which may make it difficult for us to enter into a Business Combination with a target;
+Added: ability of our Public Shareholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our Ordinary Shares and the payment
+Added: of the Deferred Fee may not allow us to complete the most desirable Business Combination or optimize our capital structure, and may materially
+Added: dilute Public Shareholders’ investment in us;
+Added: ability of our Public Shareholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our Ordinary Shares could increase
+Added: the probability that our initial Business Combination would be unsuccessful and that our Public Shareholders would have to wait for liquidation
+Added: in order to redeem their Public Shares;
+Added: requirement that we complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period may give potential target businesses leverage
+Added: over us in negotiating a Business Combination and may limit the time we have in which to conduct due diligence on potential Business
+Added: Combination targets, in particular as we approach the end of the Combination Period, which could undermine our ability to complete our
+Added: initial Business Combination on terms that would produce value for our shareholders;
+Added: may decide not to extend the Combination Period, in which case we would liquidate and redeem our Public Shares, and the Warrants would
+Added: be worthless;
+Added: we seek shareholder approval of our initial Business Combination, our Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors and their respective affiliates
+Added: may elect to purchase Public Shares or Public Warrants from Public Shareholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed Business Combination
+Added: and reduce the public “float” of our Public Shares or Public Warrants;
+Added: a Public Shareholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem their Public Shares in connection with our initial Business Combination,
+Added: or fails to comply with the procedures for submitting or tendering their Public Shares, such Public Shares may not be redeemed;
+Added: ● our Public Shareholders will not be entitled to protections normally
+Added: afforded to shareholders of other blank check companies subject to Rule 419 of the Securities Act;
+Added: we seek shareholder approval of our initial Business Combination and we do not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules,
+Added: and if a shareholder or a “group” of shareholders are deemed to hold in excess of 15% of our Class A Ordinary Shares, they
+Added: may lose the ability to redeem all such Public Shares in excess of 15% of our Class A Ordinary Shares;
+Added: of our limited resources and the significant competition for Business Combination opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete
+Added: our initial Business Combination.
+Added: If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination, our Public Shareholders may receive
+Added: only their pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that are available for distribution to Public Shareholders, and our Warrants
+Added: will expire worthless;
+Added: the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement not being held in the Trust Account are insufficient to allow us
+Added: to operate for at least the duration of the Combination Period, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business
+Added: or businesses and complete our initial Business Combination, and we will depend on loans from our Sponsor or Management Team to fund
+Added: our search and to complete our initial Business Combination;
+Added: we are unable to consummate our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, our Public Shareholders may be forced to
+Added: wait beyond July 15, 2026 before redemption from our Trust Account;
+Added: may not hold an annual general meeting until after the consummation of our initial Business Combination, which could delay the opportunity
+Added: for our Public Shareholders to discuss company affairs with Management, and the holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares will not have
+Added: the right to vote on the appointment or removal of directors or continuing our Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands until
+Added: after the consummation of our initial Business Combination;
+Added: only holders of our Class B Ordinary Shares have the right to vote on the appointment of directors prior to the consummation of
+Added: the initial Business Combination, Nasdaq considers us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Rules
+Added: and, as a result, we may qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements;
+Added: Sponsor controls the appointment of our Board of Directors until consummation of our initial Business Combination and holds a substantial
+Added: interest in us.
+Added: As a result, it will appoint all of our directors prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination and may
+Added: exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a shareholder vote, potentially in a manner that our Public Shareholders do not support;
+Added: may seek Business Combination opportunities in industries or sectors that may be outside of our Management’s areas of expertise;
+Added: we have identified general criteria and guidelines that we believe are important in evaluating prospective target businesses, we may
+Added: enter into our initial Business Combination with a target that does not meet such criteria and guidelines, and as a result, the target
+Added: business with which we enter into our initial Business Combination may not have attributes entirely consistent with our general criteria
+Added: and guidelines;
+Added: are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or from another independent entity that commonly renders
+Added: valuation opinions, and consequently, our shareholders may have no assurance from an independent source that the price we are paying
+Added: for the business is fair to our shareholders from a financial point of view;
+Added: may issue additional Class A Ordinary Shares or preference shares to complete our initial Business Combination or under an employee incentive
+Added: plan after completion of our initial Business Combination.
+Added: Any such issuances would dilute the interest of our shareholders and likely
+Added: present other risks;
+Added: some other similarly structured SPACs, our Sponsor, officers and directors will receive additional Class A Ordinary Shares if we issue
+Added: certain shares to consummate an initial Business Combination;
+Added: may engage in a Business Combination with one or more target businesses that have relationships with entities that may be affiliated
+Added: with our Sponsor, officers, directors or existing holders, which may raise potential conflicts of interest;
+Added: may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete a Business Combination, which may adversely
+Added: affect our leverage and financial condition and thus negatively impact the value of our shareholders’ investment in us;
+Added: may only be able to complete one Business Combination with the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, which
+Added: will cause us to be solely dependent on a single business, and which may have a limited number of products or services.
+Added: diversification may negatively impact our operations and profitability;
+Added: do not have a specified maximum redemption threshold.
+Added: The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for us to complete
+Added: our initial Business Combination when a substantial majority of our Public Shareholders do not agree;
+Added: provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles that relate to our pre-Business Combination activity (and corresponding provisions governing
+Added: the release of funds from our Trust Account) may be amended with a Special Resolution of our shareholders, which is a lower
+Added: amendment threshold than that of some other SPACs.
+Added: It may be easier for us, therefore, to amend the Amended and Restated Articles to
+Added: facilitate the completion of an initial Business Combination that some of our Public Shareholders may not support;
+Added: we must furnish our shareholders with financial statements of our Business Combination target, we may lose the ability to complete an
+Added: otherwise advantageous initial Business Combination with some prospective target businesses;
+Added: obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate our initial Business Combination, require
+Added: substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an initial Business Combination;
+Added: is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern”;
+Added: our initial Business Combination involves a company organized under the laws of a state of the United States (or any subdivision thereof) ,
+Added: the Excise Tax could be imposed on us in connection with redemptions of our Ordinary Shares after or in connection with such initial
Business Combination;
−Removed: we may attempt to simultaneously
−Removed: complete Business Combinations with multiple prospective targets, which may hinder our ability to complete our initial Business Combination
−Removed: and give rise to increased costs and risks that could negatively impact our operations and profitability;
−Removed: we may engage one or more
−Removed: of our underwriters or one of their respective affiliates to provide additional services to us after the Initial Public Offering,
−Removed: which may include acting as a financial advisor in connection with an initial Business Combination or as placement agent in connection
−Removed: with a related financing transaction.
−Removed: Our underwriters are entitled to receive deferred underwriting commissions that will be released
−Removed: from the Trust Account only upon completion of an initial Business Combination.
−Removed: These financial incentives may cause them to have
−Removed: potential conflicts of interest in rendering any such additional services to us after the Initial Public Offering, including, for
−Removed: example, in connection with the sourcing and consummation of an initial Business Combination;
−Removed: we may attempt to complete
−Removed: our initial Business Combination with a private company about which little information is available, which may result in a Business
−Removed: Combination with a company that is not as profitable as we suspected, if at all;
−Removed: since our Sponsor will
−Removed: lose their entire investment in us if our initial Business Combination is not completed (other than with respect to any Public Shares
−Removed: they may acquire during or after the Initial Public Offering), and because our Sponsor, officers and directors may profit substantially
−Removed: even under circumstances in which our Public Shareholders would experience losses in connection with their investment, a conflict
−Removed: of interest may arise in determining whether a particular Business Combination target is appropriate for our initial Business Combination;
−Removed: the value of the Founder
−Removed: Shares following completion of our initial Business Combination is likely to be substantially higher than the nominal price paid
−Removed: for them, even if the trading price of our Ordinary Shares at such time is substantially less than $10.24 per share (as of December
−Removed: resources could be wasted
−Removed: in researching acquisitions that are not completed, which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and acquire
−Removed: or merge with another business.
−Removed: If we have not completed our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, our Public
−Removed: Shareholders may receive only approximately $10.24 per share (as of December 31, 2024), or less than such amount in certain circumstances,
−Removed: on the liquidation of our Trust Account and our Warrants will expire worthless;
−Removed: we may not be able to complete
−Removed: an initial Business Combination with certain potential target companies if a proposed transaction with the target company may be
−Removed: subject to review or approval by regulatory authorities pursuant to certain U.S.
−Removed: or foreign laws or regulations, including the Committee
−Removed: on Foreign Investment in the United States;
−Removed: recent fluctuations in inflation and interest rates in the United States and elsewhere could make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial Business Combination;

−Removed: or other conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East or elsewhere may lead to increased volume and price volatility for publicly traded
−Removed: securities, or affect the operations or financial condition of potential target companies, which could make it more difficult for
−Removed: us to consummate an initial Business Combination;
−Removed: if our initial Business
−Removed: Combination involves a company organized under the laws of a state of the United States, it is possible the Excise Tax will be imposed
−Removed: on us in connection with redemptions of our Ordinary Shares after or in connection with such initial Business Combination.
−Removed: cyber incidents or attacks
−Removed: directed at us or third parties could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial loss;
−Removed: in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business, including our ability
−Removed: to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination, and results of operations;
−Removed: if we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company
−Removed: Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult
−Removed: for us to complete our initial Business Combination;
−Removed: mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we may, at any
−Removed: time (based on our Management Team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to our potential status under the Investment
−Removed: Company Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust
+Added: Risks Relating to the Post-Business Combination Company
+Added: share price of the post-Business Combination company may be less than the Redemption Price of our Public Shares;
+Added: officers and directors of an acquisition candidate may resign upon completion of our initial Business Combination.
+Added: The loss of a Business
+Added: Combination target’s key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business;
+Added: to our completion of our initial Business Combination, we may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment
+Added: or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and the price of our
+Added: securities, which could cause our shareholders to lose some or all of their investment;
+Added: Management may not be able to maintain control of a target business after our initial Business Combination.
+Added: We cannot provide assurance
+Added: that, upon loss of control of a target business, new management will possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to profitably
+Added: operate such business;
+Added: may have a limited ability to assess the management of a prospective target business and, as a result, may affect our initial Business
+Added: Combination with a target business whose management may not have the skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company;
+Added: initial Business Combination and our structure thereafter may not be tax-efficient to our shareholders and Warrant holders.
+Added: of our Business Combination, our tax obligations may be more complex, burdensome and/or uncertain;
+Added: Risks Relating to Acquiring or Operating a Business in Foreign Countries
+Added: may not be able to complete an initial Business Combination because such initial Business Combination may be subject to regulatory review
+Added: and approval requirements, including foreign investment regulations and review by government entities such as the Committee on Foreign
+Added: Investment in the United States, or may be ultimately prohibited;
+Added: we effect our initial Business Combination with a company located outside of the United States, we would be subject to a variety of additional
+Added: risks that may adversely affect us;
+Added: may reincorporate in, or transfer by way of continuation to, another jurisdiction, which may result in taxes imposed on our shareholders
+Added: or Warrant holders;
+Added: may reincorporate in or transfer by way of continuation to another jurisdiction in connection with our initial Business Combination,
+Added: and the laws of such jurisdiction may govern some or all of our future material agreements and we may not be able to enforce our legal
+Added: are subject to changing law and regulations regarding regulatory matters, corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased
+Added: both our costs and the risk of non-compliance;
+Added: our Management following our initial Business Combination is unfamiliar with United States securities laws, they may have to expend time
+Added: and resources becoming familiar with such laws, which could lead to various regulatory issues;
+Added: rate fluctuations and currency policies may cause a target business’ ability to succeed in the international markets to be diminished;
+Added: our initial Business Combination, substantially all of our assets may be located in a foreign country and substantially all of our revenue
+Added: will be derived from our operations in such country.
+Added: Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects will be subject, to a significant
+Added: extent, to the economic, political and legal policies, developments and conditions in the country in which we operate;
+Added: we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, our shareholders may face difficulties in protecting their interests, and their
+Added: ability to protect their rights through the U.S.
+Added: Federal courts may be limited;
+Added: Amended and Restated Articles provide that the courts of the Cayman Islands will be the exclusive forums for certain disputes between
+Added: us and our shareholders, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for complaints against
+Added: us or our directors, officers or employees;
+Added: Risks Relating to our Management Team
+Added: officers and directors allocate their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how
+Added: much time to devote to our affairs.
+Added: This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial Business
+Added: in the market for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to
+Added: negotiate and complete an initial Business Combination;
+Added: may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of our directors and officers;
+Added: performance by our Management Team, our advisors and their respective affiliates, including investments and transactions in which they
+Added: have participated and businesses with which they have been associated, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in
+Added: are dependent upon our officers and directors and their loss, or a reduction in the amount of time they can dedicate to our initial Business
+Added: Combination, could adversely affect our ability to operate;
+Added: ability to successfully effect our initial Business Combination and to be successful thereafter is dependent upon the efforts of our
+Added: key personnel, some of whom may not join us following our initial Business Combination.
+Added: The loss of key personnel could negatively impact
+Added: the operations and profitability of our post-combination business;
+Added: ownership interest of our Sponsor may change, and our Sponsor may divest its ownership interest in us before identifying a Business Combination,
+Added: which could deprive us of key personnel and advisors;
+Added: key personnel may negotiate employment or consulting agreements with a target business in connection with a particular Business Combination,
+Added: and a particular Business Combination may be conditioned on the retention or resignation of such key personnel.
+Added: These agreements may
+Added: provide for them to receive compensation following our initial Business Combination and as a result, may cause them to have conflicts
+Added: of interest in determining whether a particular Business Combination is the most advantageous;
+Added: officers and directors presently have, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other
+Added: entities, including other blank check companies, and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time and in determining
+Added: to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented;
+Added: of our Management Team and Board of Directors have significant experience as founders, board members, officers, executives or employees
+Added: of other companies.
+Added: Certain of those persons have been, are currently, or may become, involved in litigation, investigations or other
+Added: proceedings, including related to those companies or otherwise.
+Added: This may have an adverse effect on us, which may impede our ability to
+Added: consummate an initial Business Combination;
+Added: of our Management Team and affiliated companies may have been, and may in the future be, involved in civil disputes or governmental investigations
+Added: unrelated to our business;
+Added: Risks Relating to our Securities and Shareholder Rights
+Added: mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we may, at any time
+Added: (based on our Management Team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to our potential status under the Investment Company
+Added: Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust
Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of the consummation of our initial Business Combination
or our liquidation.
−Removed: As a result of such transfer, we could receive less interest on the funds held in the Trust Account than the
−Removed: interest we would have received pursuant to our original Trust Account investments, which could reduce the dollar amount our Public
−Removed: Shareholders would receive upon any redemption or our liquidation.
−Removed: We may seek to extend the Combination Period,
−Removed: which could reduce the amount held in our Trust Account and have adverse effects on our Company.
−Removed: If we are unable to consummate
−Removed: our initial Business Combination on or before July 15, 2026, we may seek shareholder approval to extend the Combination Period by amending
−Removed: our Amended and Restated Charter.
−Removed: In such event, our Public Shareholders will be provided the opportunity to have all or a portion of
−Removed: their Public Shares redeemed.
−Removed: Any redemptions will reduce the amount held in our Trust Account, the effect of which may adversely affect
−Removed: our ability to consummate our initial Business Combination and may also impair our ability to maintain our Nasdaq listing.
−Removed: We anticipate that our securities will be
−Removed: suspended from trading on Nasdaq and delisted if we do not consummate our initial Business Combination by July 11, 2027.
−Removed: Any trading suspension
−Removed: or delisting could have a material adverse effect on the trading of our securities and may adversely affect our ability to consummate
−Removed: an initial Business Combination.
−Removed: Our IPO Registration Statement
−Removed: was declared effective by the SEC on July 11, 2024 and our securities are currently listed on the Global Market tier of Nasdaq.
−Removed: to our Amended and Restated Charter, we have until July 15, 2024 to consummate our initial Business Combination.
−Removed: However, under the Nasdaq
−Removed: Rules, if a SPAC does not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, the SPAC will be subject to a suspension of trading and delisting from
−Removed: Under the Nasdaq Rules, a
−Removed: SPAC’s Nasdaq-listed securities will be immediately suspended from trading if the SPAC does not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement,
−Removed: and Nasdaq will, at such point, commence delisting procedures.
−Removed: Although a SPAC can request a hearing before the hearing panel of Nasdaq
−Removed: (the “Hearing Panel”), the scope of the Hearing Panel’s review is limited.
−Removed: If a SPAC completes a Business Combination
−Removed: after receiving a delisting determination by the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq (a “Staff Delisting Determination”)
−Removed: and/or demonstrates compliance with all applicable initial listing requirements, the combined company can apply to list its securities
−Removed: on Nasdaq pursuant to the normal application review process.
−Removed: The Nasdaq Rules contain a list of deficiencies that would immediately result
−Removed: in a Staff Delisting Determination, which includes noncompliance with the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement.
−Removed: Accordingly, were we to amend our
−Removed: Amended and Restated Charter to extend the date by which we are permitted to consummate our initial Business Combination, we would still
−Removed: need to consummate our initial Business Combination on or prior to July 11, 2027 in order to avoid a suspension of our securities from
−Removed: trading on and delisting from Nasdaq.
−Removed: If Nasdaq were to suspend our securities from trading and delist our securities, our securities
−Removed: could potentially be quoted on an over-the-counter market.
−Removed: Even if our securities are then quoted on an over-the-counter market, our Nasdaq
−Removed: suspension and delisting could have significant material adverse consequences, including:
−Removed: our securities appear to be less attractive to potential target companies than the securities of an exchange listed SPAC;
−Removed: availability of market quotations for our securities;
−Removed: liquidity for our securities;
−Removed: possibility that our Class A Ordinary Shares would be deemed “penny stock,” which
−Removed: will require brokers trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares to adhere to more stringent rules
−Removed: and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market
−Removed: for our securities;
−Removed: news and analyst coverage;
−Removed: ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
−Removed: In addition, if our securities
−Removed: are delisted from Nasdaq, trading in our securities, and offers and sales of our securities by us, may be subject to state securities
−Removed: regulation and additional compliance costs.
−Removed: The share price of the post-Business Combination
−Removed: company may be less than the Redemption Price (as defined below) of our Public Shares.
−Removed: Each Unit sold in our Initial
−Removed: Public Offering at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit consisted of one Public Share and one-half of one Public Warrant.
−Removed: Of the proceeds
−Removed: we received from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $230,000,000 was placed in our Trust Account.
−Removed: We will provide
−Removed: our Public Shareholders the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in connection with the completion of our initial
−Removed: Business Combination, and potentially upon the occurrence of certain other events prior to our initial Business Combination.
−Removed: that the pro rata redemption price in any redemption will be approximately $10.24 per Public Share as of December 31, 2024 (before taxes
−Removed: payable, if any, the “ Redemption Price ”), representing a pro rata portion of our Trust Account without taking into
−Removed: account any interest or other income earned on such funds (less any withdrawals from such interest or income for taxes paid), although
−Removed: the Redemption Price may be less in certain circumstances.
−Removed: As a result, Public Shareholders who own our Public Shares on a redemption
−Removed: date can anticipate receiving the Redemption Price in connection with a redemption for each Public Share that they choose to redeem.
−Removed: There can be no assurance
−Removed: that, after our initial Business Combination, our Public Shareholders would be able to sell their shares in the post-Business Combination
−Removed: company for the Redemption Price, or any higher price.
−Removed: We have not, as yet, identified a target and are therefore unable to provide any
−Removed: assurances as to its financial condition, business prospects or potential risks.
−Removed: It is therefore possible that the share price of the
−Removed: post-Business Combination company may decline below the Redemption Price.
−Removed: In recent years, the share prices of many post-Business
−Removed: Combination companies have fallen following a Business Combination.
−Removed: As a result, if our Public Shareholders continue to hold shares in
−Removed: the post-Business Combination company following our initial Business Combination, we cannot assure our shareholders that the trading price
−Removed: of such shares will be greater than the Redemption Price.
−Removed: Certain agreements related to the Initial
−Removed: Public Offering may be amended, or their provisions waived, without shareholder approval.
−Removed: Certain of the agreements
−Removed: related to the Initial Public Offering to which we are a party may be amended, or their provisions waived, without shareholder approval.
−Removed: Such agreements include, among others, the (i) Underwriting Agreement, (ii) Letter Agreement, (iii) Registration Rights Agreement, (iii)
−Removed: Warrant Subscription Agreements and (iv) Administrative Support Agreement.
−Removed: These agreements contain various provisions that our Public
−Removed: Shareholders might deem to be material.
−Removed: For example, our Letter Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement contain certain lock-up provisions
−Removed: with respect to the Founder Shares and other securities held by our Sponsor, officers and directors, subject to certain exceptions.
−Removed: or waivers to such agreements would require the consent of the applicable parties thereto and, in certain cases, the consent of the underwriters
−Removed: of the Initial Public Offering.
−Removed: Any such modification, such as an amendment to shorten lock-up restrictions, may benefit our Sponsor,
−Removed: officers and/or directors.
−Removed: Any such amendments would not require approval from our shareholders, may result in the completion of our initial
−Removed: Business Combination that may not otherwise have been possible, and may have an adverse effect on the value of an investment in our securities.
−Removed: For example, although we would not amend lock-up provisions to permit securities held by our Sponsor to be freely sold prior to our initial
−Removed: Business Combination, we may amend such provisions to permit them to be freely sold after the Business Combination earlier than they would
−Removed: otherwise be permitted, which may have an adverse effect on the price of our securities.
−Removed: Uncertainty in connection with certain international
−Removed: economic and political relationships, including the imposition of tariffs on international trade, political disputes, regulatory changes
−Removed: and other international matters could have a material adverse effect on our ability to identify potential targets and to consummate our
−Removed: initial Business Combination, and could adversely affect the financial performance of any target, either foreign or domestic.
−Removed: international economic and political environment is dynamic and subject to change.
−Removed: There is currently significant uncertainty about
−Removed: the future economic and political relationships between the United States and a number of other countries.
−Removed: These uncertainties include,
−Removed: among other things, the potential imposition of protective tariffs on goods imported from other countries and reciprocal tariffs other
−Removed: countries may impose on United States products, political disputes that may affect relationships between the United States and other countries
−Removed: and the imposition of regulatory or other restrictions on trade and commerce.
−Removed: Any such matters could potentially limit the number of potential
−Removed: targets we may consider, and could also have a material adverse effect on the financial performance of such potential targets.
−Removed: things, historical financial performance of companies affected by these international matters may not provide as accurate a barometer
−Removed: of future performance as would pertain in a more stable economic environment.
−Removed: additional risks relating to our operations, other than as set forth above, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained
−Removed: in our IPO Registration Statement.
−Removed: Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations
−Removed: or financial condition.
−Removed: Additional risks could arise that may also affect our business or ability to consummate an initial Business Combination.
−Removed: We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
+Added: As a result, following the liquidation of investments in the Trust Account, we will likely receive less interest
+Added: on the funds held in the Trust Account than we would have had the Trust Account remained as initially invested, such that our Public
+Added: Shareholders would receive less upon any redemption or liquidation of our Company than what they would have received had the investments
+Added: not been liquidated;
+Added: Public Shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption
+Added: of their Public Shares;
+Added: third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption
+Added: amount received by Public Shareholders may be less than the Redemption Price;
+Added: directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of our Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in
+Added: the Trust Account available for distribution to our Public Shareholders;
+Added: securities in which we invest the funds held in the Trust Account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the interest
+Added: income available for payment of taxes or reduce the value of the assets held in the Trust Account such that the per-share redemption
+Added: amount received by Public Shareholders may be less than the Redemption Price;
+Added: before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary
+Added: bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority
+Added: over the claims of our shareholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our Public Shareholders in connection
+Added: with our liquidation may be reduced;
+Added: after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary
+Added: bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a liquidator or a bankruptcy, insolvency or other court
+Added: may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our Board of Directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties
+Added: to us or our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our Board of Directors and us to claims of punitive damages;
+Added: active market for our public securities may not continue, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of our securities, and
+Added: our shareholders may have limited liquidity and trading;
+Added: our Sponsor, directors and officers and any other holder of our Founder Shares will lose their entire investment in us if our initial
+Added: Business Combination is not completed (other than with respect to any Public Shares they may acquire during or after the Initial Public
+Added: Offering), and because our Sponsor, officers and directors and any other holder of our Founder Shares may profit substantially even under
+Added: circumstances in which our Public Shareholders would experience losses in connection with their investment, a conflict of interest may
+Added: arise in determining whether a particular Business Combination target is appropriate for our initial Business Combination;
+Added: value of the Founder Shares following completion of our initial Business Combination is likely to be substantially higher than the nominal
+Added: price paid for them, even if the trading price of our Public Shares at such time is substantially less than the Redemption Price;
+Added: ● Nasdaq may delist our securities from trading on its exchange, which
+Added: could limit our shareholders’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions;
+Added: Public Shareholders do not have any rights or interests in funds from the Trust Account, except under certain limited circumstances.
+Added: Therefore, to liquidate their investment, they may be forced to sell their Public Shares or Public Warrants, potentially at a loss;
+Added: Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per Founder Share and, accordingly, our Public Shareholders experience
+Added: immediate and substantial dilution from the purchase of our Class A Ordinary Shares;
+Added: nominal purchase price paid by our Sponsor for the Founder Shares may result in significant dilution to the implied value of the Public
+Added: Shares upon the consummation of our initial Business Combination, and our Sponsor is likely to make a substantial profit on its investment
+Added: in us in the event we consummate an initial Business Combination, even if the Business Combination causes the trading price of our Ordinary
+Added: Shares to materially decline;
+Added: our initial Business Combination, it is possible that a majority of our directors and officers will live outside the United States
+Added: and all of our assets will be located outside the United States;
+Added: therefore, shareholders may not be able to enforce federal securities
+Added: laws or their other legal rights;
+Added: in our Amended and Restated Articles may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the
+Added: future for our Class A Ordinary Shares and could entrench Management;
+Added: a redemption of Public Shares will be treated as a sale of such Class A Ordinary Shares for U.S.
+Added: federal income tax purposes
+Added: will depend on a shareholder’s specific facts;
+Added: may amend the terms of the Public Warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of Public Warrants with the approval by the holders
+Added: of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants.
+Added: As a result, the exercise price of the Public Warrants could be increased,
+Added: the exercise period could be shortened and the number of Class A Ordinary Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Public Warrant could
+Added: be decreased, all without shareholder approval;
+Added: Warrant Agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern
+Added: District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders
+Added: of our Warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our Company;
+Added: provision of the Warrant Agreement may make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial Business Combination;
+Added: Warrants may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and make it more difficult to effectuate
+Added: our initial Business Combination;
+Added: each Unit contains one-half of one Warrant and only a whole Warrant may be exercised, the Units may be worth less than units of
+Added: holders will not be permitted to exercise their Warrants unless we register and qualify the underlying Class A Ordinary Shares
+Added: or certain exemptions are available;
+Added: may only be able to exercise Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” under certain circumstances, and if they do so, they will
+Added: receive fewer Class A Ordinary Shares from such exercise than if they were to exercise such Public Warrants for cash;
+Added: of Class A Ordinary Shares are not entitled to vote on continuing our Company in a jurisdiction outside of the Cayman Islands;
+Added: grant of registration rights to our Sponsor, Cantor and other holders of our Private Placement Warrants may make it more difficult to
+Added: complete our initial Business Combination, and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A
+Added: Ordinary Shares;
+Added: may be a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse United States federal income tax consequences to our U.S.
+Added: shareholders;
+Added: are an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of
+Added: certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make
+Added: our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies;
+Added: may seek to extend the Combination Period, which could have a material adverse effect on the amount held in our Trust Account and other
+Added: adverse effects on our Company.
+Added: For more detailed descriptions of these and other risks relating
+Added: to our Company, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our (i) IPO Registration Statement, (ii) 2024 Annual
+Added: Report and (iii) Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2025 and
+Added: June 30, 2025, as filed with the SEC on May 15, 2025 and August 14, 2025, respectively.
+Added: of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes with respect to those risk factors ,
+Added: other than as set forth below.
+Added: Any of these previously disclosed risk factors could result in a significant or material adverse
+Added: effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
+Added: Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial
+Added: may also affect our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination.
+Added: We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional
+Added: risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
+Added: Our search for an initial
+Added: Business Combination, and any target business with which we may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination, may be materially
+Added: adversely affected by current global geopolitical conditions and armed conflicts in the Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East between
+Added: United States, Israel and Iran and others, as well as by other events that are outside of our control.
+Added: Our ability to find a potential
+Added: target business and the business of any company with which we may consummate a Business Combination could be materially and adversely
+Added: affected by events that are outside of our control.
+Added: For example, United States and global markets have experienced and may continue to
+Added: experience volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the
+Added: recent conflict in the Middle East and Southwest Asia between the United States, Israel and Iran and others.
+Added: Recent hostilities between
+Added: the United States, Israel and Iran and others have caused significant disruption in the normal flow of oil, refined petroleum products
+Added: and related commodities, with consequent price rises and associated economic volatility.
+Added: In response to such conflicts, the North Atlantic
+Added: Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom,
+Added: the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals
+Added: and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication
+Added: (SWIFT) payment system.
+Added: Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or
+Added: other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, or have undertaken or will undertake military strikes in locations related to the conflicts,
+Added: including but not limited to Iran, and there have been retaliatory military responses, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number
+Added: The invasion of Ukraine by
+Added: Russia and the escalation of the conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran and others in the Middle East and Southwest Asia
+Added: and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the
+Added: European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting
+Added: impact on regional and global economies.
+Added: Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts and geopolitical turmoil are highly unpredictable,
+Added: they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply
+Added: chain interruptions, changes in consumer or producer purchasing behavior and increased cyber-attacks against U.S.
+Added: Additionally,
+Added: any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity
+Added: in capital markets.
+Added: Similarly, other events outside
+Added: of our control, including natural disasters, climate-related events and pandemic or health crises (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) may
+Added: arise from time to time, and any such events may cause significant volatility and declines in the global markets and have disproportionate
+Added: impacts to certain industries or sectors and disruptions to commerce (including economic activity, travel and supply chain), and may adversely
+Added: affect the global economy or capital markets.
+Added: Any of the abovementioned
+Added: factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian
+Added: invasion of Ukraine, the escalation of the conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran and others in the Middle East and Southwest
+Added: Asia and subsequent sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect our search for an initial Business Combination and any target
+Added: business with which we may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
+Added: The extent and duration of
+Added: the ongoing conflicts, resulting sanctions and any related market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial, particularly
+Added: if current or new sanctions continue for an extended period of time, if geopolitical tensions result in expanded military operations on
+Added: a global scale or if there are disruptions in the supply of oil or other commodities.
+Added: Any such disruptions may also
+Added: have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this Item.
+Added: If these disruptions or other matters of global concern
+Added: continue for an extensive period of time, our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination, or the operations of a target business
+Added: with which we may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination, may be materially adversely affected.
+Added: In addition, our ability
+Added: to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity or debt financing, which may be impacted by these and other
+Added: events, including as a result of increased market volatility or decreased availability of third-party financing on acceptable terms or
+Added: Military or other conflicts
+Added: in Ukraine, between the United States, Israel and Iran and others and other in the Middle East and Southwest Asia or other armed hostilities
+Added: may lead to increased volume and price volatility for publicly traded securities, or affect the operations or financial condition of potential
+Added: target companies, which could make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial Business Combination.
+Added: Military or other conflicts in Ukraine, between the United States,
+Added: Israel and Iran and others in the Middle East, and Southwest Asia or other armed hostilities may lead to increased volume and price volatility
+Added: for publicly traded securities, or affect the operations or financial condition of potential target companies, and to other company or
+Added: industry-specific, national, regional or international economic disruptions and economic uncertainty, any of which could make it more
+Added: difficult for us to identify a Business Combination target and consummate an initial Business Combination on acceptable commercial terms,
