9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As
required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based upon their
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements
included in this annual report on Form 10-K present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations,
and cash flows for the period presented.

There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange

over financial reporting.

Number
and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors
We
have nine directors. In accordance with NYSE corporate governance requirements, we are not required to hold an annual meeting until one
year after our first fiscal year end following our listing on the NYSE.
Our
officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms
of office. Our board of directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our amended and restated memorandum and
articles of association as it deems appropriate. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that our officers
may consist of a Chairman or Co-Chairmen, a Vice-Chairman, a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Operating Officer, a Chief
Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, a Secretary, Assistant Secretaries, a Treasurer and such other offices as may be determined by the
board of directors.
Committees
of the Board of Directors
Our
board of directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance
committee. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, NYSE rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee
of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and the rules of the NYSE require that the each of the compensation
committee and nominating and corporate governance committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.
Audit
Committee
We
have established an audit committee of the board of directors. Blake Janover, Frank Candio and David Magli serve as members of our audit
committee, and David Magli will chair the audit committee. Under applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least three members
of the audit committee, all of whom must be independent. Each of Blake Janover, Frank Candio and David Magli meet the independent director
standard under Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act.
Each
member of the audit committee is financially literate, and our board of directors has determined that David Magli qualifies as an “audit
committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.
We
have adopted an audit committee charter, which details the principal functions of the audit committee, including:
●
The
appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm
engaged by us;
●
Pre-approving
all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and
establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;
●
setting
clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent registered public accounting firm, including but not limited
to, as required by applicable laws and regulations;
●
setting
clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
●
obtaining
and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing (i) the independent
registered public accounting firm’s internal quality-control procedures, (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent
internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional
authorities within the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken
to deal with such issues and (iii) all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and us to assess the
independent registered public accounting firm’s independence;
●
reviewing
and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC
prior to us entering into such transaction; and
●
reviewing
with management, the independent registered public accounting firm, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory
or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published
reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting
standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
84
Compensation
Committee
We
have established a compensation committee of the board of directors. Blake Janover, Frank Candio and David Magli serve as members of
our compensation committee. Under applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least two members of the compensation committee, all
of whom must be independent. Each of Blake Janover, Frank Candio and David Magli are independent, and Frank Candio will chair the compensation
committee.
We
have adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:
●
reviewing
and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation,
if any is paid by us, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining
and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation;
●
reviewing
and approving on an annual basis the compensation, if any is paid by us, of all of our other officers;
●
reviewing
on an annual basis our executive compensation policies and plans;
●
implementing
and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
●
assisting
management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

●
if
required, producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and
●
reviewing,
evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.
The
charter will also provide that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation
consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work
of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other
adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by NYSE and the
SEC.
Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee
We
have established a nominating and corporate governance committee of the board of directors. The initial members of our nominating and
corporate governance are Blake Janover, Frank Candio and David Magli. Blake Janover serves as chair of the nominating and corporate governance
committee.
We
have adopted a nominating and corporate governance committee charter, which details the purpose and responsibilities of the nominating
and corporate governance committee, including:
●
identifying
and screening individuals qualified to serve as directors, consistent with criteria approved by the board, and recommending to the
board of directors candidates for nomination for election at the annual meeting of shareholders or to fill vacancies on the board

and overseeing the annual self-evaluation of the board of directors, its committees, individual directors and management in the governance
of the company; and
●
reviewing
on a regular basis our overall corporate governance and recommending improvements as and when necessary.
The
charter also provides that the nominating and corporate governance committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice
of, and terminate, any search firm to be used to identify director candidates, and will be directly responsible for approving the search
firm’s fees and other retention terms.
Compensation
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None
of our officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one
or more officers serving on our board of directors.
85
Code
of Ethics
We
have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees. Our code of ethics contains a conflict of interest
policy that prohibits our directors and executive officers, and other related parties, from engaging in any transaction that involves
a conflict of interest with the company. The conflict of interest policy provides that a committee of independent members of the board
of directors may, among other things, cause any officer or director who has a direct or indirect interest in a transaction to recuse
him or herself from the consideration of such transaction and, to the extent necessary, the committee may retain appropriately qualified,
non-conflicted personnel to advise the company in connection with such transaction. Our Code of Ethics and our audit and compensation
committee charters are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which our prospectus is part. You will be able to review these
documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics
will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our
Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Conflicts
of Interest
Under
Cayman Islands law, directors and officers owe the following fiduciary duties:
●
duty
to act in good faith in what the director or officer believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole;
●
duty
to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose;
●
duty
to not improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion;
●
duty
to exercise powers fairly as between different sections of shareholders;
●
duty
to not put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests;
●
duty
to exercise independent judgment.
In
addition to the above, directors also owe a duty of care, which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement
to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person
carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge, skill and experience
which that director has.
As
set out above, directors have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing,
or to otherwise benefit as a result of their position at the expense of the company. However, in some instances what would otherwise
be a breach of this duty can be forgiven and/or authorized in advance by the shareholders provided that there is full disclosure by the
directors. This can be done by way of permission granted in the memorandum and articles of association or alternatively by shareholder
approval at general meetings. Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary,
contractual or other obligations or duties to one or more other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required
to present a business combination opportunity to such entities. Accordingly, if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business
combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he
or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such other entity,
subject to their fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands law. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that,
to the fullest extent permitted by law: (i) no individual serving as a director or an officer, among other persons, shall have any duty,
except and to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business
activities or lines of business as us, and (ii) we renounce any interest or expectancy in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate
in, any potential transaction or matter which (a) may be a corporate opportunity for any director or officer, on the one hand, and us,
on the other or (b) the presentation of which would breach an existing legal obligation of a director or officer to any other entity.

In
addition, our sponsor and our officers and directors may sponsor or form other special purpose acquisition companies similar to ours
or may pursue other business or investment ventures during the period in which we are seeking an initial business combination. As a result,
our sponsor, officers and directors could have conflicts of interest in determining whether to present business combination opportunities
to us or to any other special purpose acquisition company with which they may become involved. Any such companies, businesses or investments
may present additional conflicts of interest in pursuing an initial business combination target which could materially affect our ability
to complete our initial business combination.
Investors
should also be aware of the following other potential conflicts of interest:
●
Our
officers and directors are not required to, and will not, commit their full time to our affairs, which may result in a conflict of
interest in allocating their time between our operations and our search for a business combination and their other businesses. We
do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Each of our officers is
engaged in several other business endeavors for which he may be entitled to substantial compensation, and our officers are not obligated
to contribute any specific number of hours per week to our affairs.
●
Our
initial shareholders purchased founder shares prior to our initial public offering and also purchased private placement units in
a transaction that closed simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering. Our sponsor, officers and directors have
entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their
founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. Additionally, our sponsor,
officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their
founder shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame, although they will be entitled
to liquidating distributions from assets outside the trust account. If we do not complete our initial business combination within
the prescribed time frame, the private placement Share Rights will expire worthless. Furthermore, our sponsor, officers and directors
have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their founder shares and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion
thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of our initial business combination or (ii) the date following
the completion of our initial business combination on which we complete a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction
that results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of our Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted
for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, the founder shares will be released from
the lockup. The private placement units (including the securities underlying such units) will not be transferable until 30 days following
the completion of our initial business combination. Because each of our officers and director nominees will own ordinary shares or
Share Rights directly or indirectly, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is
an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination.
87
●
our
sponsor and members of our management team either directly or indirectly own our securities following our initial public offering,
and accordingly, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business
with which to effectuate our initial business combination. Upon the closing of our initial public offering, our sponsor has invested
in us an aggregate of $4,025,000, comprised of the $25,000 purchase price for the founder shares (or approximately $0.004 per share)
and the $4,000,000 purchase price for the private placement units (or $10.00 per unit). Accordingly, our management team, which owns
interests in our sponsor, may be more willing to pursue a business combination with a riskier or less-established target business
than would be the case if our sponsor had paid the same per share price for the founder shares as our public shareholders paid for
their public shares.
●
certain
members of our management team may receive compensation upon consummation of our initial business combination, and accordingly, they
may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate
our initial business combination as such compensation will not be received unless we consummate such business combination.
●
Our
officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention
or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect
to our initial business combination.
●
In
the event our sponsor or members of our management team provide loans to us to finance transaction costs and/or incur expenses on
our behalf in connection with an initial business combination, such persons may have a conflict of interest in determining whether
a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination as such loans may
not be repaid and/or such expenses may not be reimbursed unless we consummate such business combination.
●
Similarly,
if we agree to pay our sponsor or a member of our management team a finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee
in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business combination, such persons may have a conflict of interest in determining
whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination as any
such fee may not be paid unless we consummate such business combination.
●
We
are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or
directors or completing the business combination through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with our sponsor, officers
or directors; accordingly, such affiliated person(s) may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business
is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination as such affiliated person(s) would have interests
different from our public shareholders and would likely not receive any financial benefit unless we consummated such business combination.
Upon
consummation of our initial public offering we repaid $225,412 in loans made to us by our sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational
expenses, and commenced paying an affiliate of our sponsor $5,000 per month for office space and administrative and personnel services.
In the event that following our initial public offering we obtain working capital loans from our sponsor to finance transaction costs
related to our initial business combination, up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units of the post-business combination
entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of our sponsor. In addition, on February 19, 2026, we issued the A Note and the B
Note to Soulpower Management, the managing member of the Sponsor, in the principal amounts of up to $785,000 and up to $2,500,000, respectively. Additionally, following consummation of a business
combination, members of our management team will be entitled to reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying,
investigating and completing an initial business combination. As a result, there may be actual or potential material conflicts of interest
between members of our management team, our sponsor and its affiliates on one hand, and purchasers in this offering on the other. See
the sections titled “Summary — Sponsor Information”, “Summary — Conflicts of Interest”, “Risk
Factors — Risks Relating to our Search for, and Consummation of or Inability to Consummate, a Business Combination — Since
our sponsor, officers and directors, any other holder of our founder shares, may lose their entire investment in us if our initial business
combination is not completed (other than with respect to public shares they may acquire during or after this offering), a conflict of
interest may arise in determining whether a particular business combination target is appropriate for our initial business combination.”
88
We
are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors
or completing the business combination through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with our sponsor, officers or directors.
In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a company that is affiliated (as defined in our amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association) with our sponsor, officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain
an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions, stating
that the consideration to be paid by us in such an initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
We are not required to obtain such an opinion in any other context.
Prior
to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, there may be payment by the company to our sponsor, officers
or directors, or our or their affiliates, of a finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee for any services they
render in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business, which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business
combination, will be paid from funds held outside the trust account.
We
cannot assure you that any of the above mentioned conflicts will be resolved in our favor.
In
the event that we submit our initial business combination to our public shareholders for a vote, our sponsor, officers and directors
have agreed to vote their founder shares, and they and the other members of our management team have agreed to vote their founder shares
and any shares purchased during or after the offering in favor of our initial business combination, aside from shares they may purchase
in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act, which would not be voted in favor of approving the business
combination transaction. The non-managing investors in the sponsor are not required to (i) hold any units, Class A ordinary shares or
public units they may purchase in this offering or thereafter for any amount of time, (ii) vote any Class A ordinary shares they may
own at the applicable time in favor of our initial business combination or (iii) refrain from exercising their right to redeem their
public shares at the time of our initial business combination. They will have the same rights to the funds held in the trust account
with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the units they may purchase in this offering as the rights afforded to our other
public shareholders.
Legal
Proceedings
Unless
otherwise indicated, no officer, director, or persons nominated for such positions, promoter or significant employee has been involved
in the last ten years in any of the following:
●
Any
bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the
time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time,
●
Any
conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor
offenses),
●
Being
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction,
permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting their involvement in any type of business, securities
or banking activities,
●
Being
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated
a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated,
●
Having

against them as a result of their involvement in any type of business, securities, or banking activity,
●
Being
the subject of a pending administrative proceeding related to their involvement in any type of business, securities, or banking activity,
or
●
Having
any administrative proceeding threatened against them related to their involvement in any type of business, securities, or banking
activity.
Limitation
on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification
of directors and officers, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public
policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and
restated memorandum and articles of association provide for indemnification of our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted
by law, including for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own actual fraud, willful default or willful
neglect.
We
will enter into agreements with our directors and officers to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification
provided for in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. We may purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’
liability insurance that insures our directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some
circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our directors and officers.
We
believe that these provisions, the insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced
directors and officers.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
89
Section
16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than
ten percent of our common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These reporting persons are also
required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of such forms, we believe that for
the year ended December 31, 2025, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial
owners were complied with.
ITEM
11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Executive
Officer and Director Compensation
Except
as described herein, none of our officers or directors has received any cash compensation for services rendered to us.
On
July 7, 2025, the company appointed Mr. Joshua Lafazan as President of the company and entered into a consulting agreement with him pursuant
to which Mr. Lafazan will serve as President from the date of the agreement until the consummation of the company’s business combination,
unless terminated earlier. His duties include 1) investor relations, 2) government relations and 3) community relations. Mr. Lafazan
will receive consulting fees of $7,500 per month.
On
July 7, 2025, the company entered into a consulting agreement with Teresa Strassner, the Chief Financial Officer of the company. The
consulting agreement is in effect from the date of the agreement until the consummation of the company’s business combination unless
terminated earlier. Ms. Strassner will receive consulting fees of $10,000 per month.
We
may pay finder’s and consulting fees to our initial shareholders or any of their respective affiliates for services rendered prior
to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. In addition, our officers, directors, or any of their respective
affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying
potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly
basis all payments that were made to our initial shareholders or their affiliates.
After
the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting
or management fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in
the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination.
We have not established any limit on the amount of such fees that may be paid by the combined company to our directors or members of
management. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of the proposed business combination, because the
directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to
be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommended to the board of directors for determination, either by a compensation committee
constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on our board of directors.
Following
a business combination, to the extent we deem it necessary, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management
team of the target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that additional managers
will have the requisite skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management.
Compensation
Recovery Policy
On
March 13, 2025, our board of directors adopted a compensation recovery policy (the “Compensation Recovery Policy”)
permitting the company to seek the recovery of incentive compensation received by any of the company’s current and former
executive officers (as determined by the board in accordance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and NYSE rules) and such other
senior executives/employees who may from time to time be deemed subject to the Compensation Recovery Policy by the board
(collectively, the “Covered Executives”). The amount to be recovered will be the excess of the incentive compensation
paid to the Covered Executive based on the erroneous data over the incentive compensation that would have been paid to the Covered
Executive had it been based on the restated results, as determined by the board. If the board cannot determine the amount of excess
incentive compensation received by the Covered Executive directly from the information in the accounting restatement, then it will
make its determination based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the accounting restatement. Refer to Exhibit 97.1 of this
annual report for the company’s Compensation Recovery Policy.

ITEM
12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The
following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares as of the date of this annual report
by:
●
each
person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares;
●
each
of our executive officers and directors; and
●
all
our executive officers and directors as a group.
In
the table below, percentage ownership is based on 33,953,333 ordinary shares, consisting of (i) 25,620,000 Class A ordinary shares
and (ii) 8,333,333 Class B ordinary shares, in each case, issued and outstanding as of [*], 2026. Prior to the closing of our
initial business combination, only holders of our Class B ordinary shares (i) will have the right to vote to appoint and remove
directors prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) will be entitled to vote on
continuing our company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution required to amend our
constitutional documents or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of our approving a transfer by way of
continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). On any other matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders prior to or
in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares and holders of the
Class A ordinary shares will vote together as a single class, except as required by law. Currently, all of the Class B ordinary
shares are convertible into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons
named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all ordinary shares beneficially owned by them.

securities laws) provided that in connection with any proposed business combination, our initial shareholders will not vote any ordinary
shares that they purchase after we publicly announce our intention to engage in such proposed business combination, (B) not to redeem
any shares owned by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or amendment to our
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association prior thereto and (C) to waive liquidation rights with respect to their founder

ITEM
13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions
On
June 10, 2024 our sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share, to cover certain of our offering costs in exchange for 5,750,000
founder shares. In March 2025, we effected a share capitalization of 0.33 shares for each Class B ordinary share outstanding, resulting
in our initial shareholders holding an aggregate of 7,666,667 founder shares. In April 2025, we effected a share capitalization of 0.11
shares for each Class B ordinary share outstanding, resulting in our initial shareholders holding an aggregate of 8,433,333 founder shares
(up to 1,100,000 shares of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option
is exercised).
The
number of founder shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of this offering would be a maximum
of 25,300,000 units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full, and therefore that such founder shares would
represent 25% of the outstanding shares after this offering. Up to 1,100,000 of the founder shares will be surrendered for no consideration
depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised.
On
July 22, 2024, our sponsor entered into a share purchase agreement with our directors pursuant to which each director purchased 12,500
Class B ordinary shares from our sponsor for a consideration of $1.00. On March 13, 2024, each of our directors transferred 4,166.97
founder shares to our sponsor. On April 1, 2024, each of directors transferred 1,250 founder shares to our sponsor.
Our
sponsor, Soulpower Acquisition Sponsor LLC, and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the representative of the underwriters, have purchased an
aggregate of 620,000 private placement units (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), at
a price of $10.00 per unit, or $6,200,000 in the aggregate (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised
in full), in a private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering. Each private placement unit
consists of one Class A ordinary share and one Share Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of a Class A ordinary share upon the consummation
of an initial business combination, as described in more detail in this annual report. We refer to these units throughout this annual
report as the private placement units and the Share Rights included in the private placement units as private placement rights. Of those
620,000 private placement units, our sponsor has purchased 400,000 units and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased 220,000 units. The
private placement units are identical to the units sold in this offering, subject to certain limited exceptions as described in this
annual report.
93
Prior
to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, there may be payment by the company to our sponsor, officers
or directors, or our or their affiliates, of a finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee for any services they
render in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business, which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business
combination, will be paid from funds held outside the trust account.
We
will reimburse an affiliate of our sponsor in an amount equal to $5,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative
support made available to us. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly
fees.
On
June 7, 2024, the company issued an unsecured promissory note to sponsor, pursuant to which the company may borrow up to an aggregate
principal amount of $135,000. The promissory note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2024 and (ii)
the consummation of the initial public offering. On January 13, 2025, the company amended the promissory note to increase the aggregate
principal amount to $300,000, and to modify it to be payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2025 and (ii) the consummation of the
initial public offering. The note was repaid in full at the closing of the initial public offering and borrowings are no longer available
under the promissory note.
In
addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate
of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds up to $1,500,000 as may be required
on a non-interest basis. If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial
business combination does not close, we may use amounts held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from
our trust account would be used for such repayment. Prior to the completion of our initial business combination, we do not expect to
seek loans from parties other than our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan
such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.
On
February 19, 2026, we issued the A Note to Soulpower Management. The A Note is due on the earlier of (i) the consummation of our initial
business combination or (ii) our liquidation and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. A flat-rate of 22% of the principal amount
in interest is due at maturity, unless earlier prepaid. The A Note is not convertible into securities of the company and is subject to
customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the A Note, accrued
interest and all other sums payable with regard to the A Note becoming immediately due and payable. We have used the proceeds from the A Note for general working capital purposes. Also on February
19, 2026, we issued to Soulpower Management the B Note in the principal amount of up to $2,500,000. Under the terms of the B Note, the
outstanding principal balance of the B Note shall be automatically and irrevocably forgiven in full upon consummation of our initial
business combination and all obligations of the company thereunder shall be deemed satisfied and discharged without further action by
any party to the B Note. If the company does not consummate a business combination, the B Note will be due on the earlier of (i) the
occurrence of an event of default or (ii) our liquidation. The B Note bears no interest, is not convertible into securities of the company
and is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance
of the B Note and all other sums payable with regard to the B Note becoming immediately due and payable. We have used the proceeds from the B Note for general working capital purposes. Soulpower Management
is the sole managing member of the Sponsor The sole managing member of Soulpower Management is Soulpower International Corporation which
is controlled by Justin Lafazan, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors of the company. Certain other directors
of the company are also members of Soulpower Management.
We
have until the date that is 24 months from the closing of our initial public offering or until such earlier liquidation date as our board
of directors may approve, to consummate our initial business combination. If we anticipate that we may be unable to consummate our initial
business combination within such 24-month period, we may seek shareholder approval to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association to extend the date by which we must consummate our initial business combination. If we seek shareholder approval for an
extension, holders of public shares will be offered an opportunity to redeem their shares at a per share price, payable in cash, equal
to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned thereon (less taxes payable), divided by the
number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law.
94
Any
of the foregoing payments to our sponsor, repayments of loans from our sponsor or repayments of working capital loans prior to our initial
business combination will be made using funds held outside the trust account.
After
our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees
from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our shareholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy
solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation
will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a general meeting held to consider our initial
business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director
compensation.
We
have entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the founder shares and private placement units.
On
November 24, 2025, we, Pubco, SPAC Merger Sub, SWB Merger Sub and SWB entered into the “SWB Business Combination Agreement. Please
see Business - SWB Business Combination Agreement and Related Agreements for more information.
Related
Party Policy
The
audit committee of our board of directors has adopted a policy setting forth the policies and procedures for its review and approval
or ratification of “related party transactions.” A “related party transaction” is any consummated or proposed
transaction or series of transactions: (i) in which the company was or is to be a participant; (ii) the amount of which exceeds (or is
reasonably expected to exceed) the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of the company’s total assets at year end for the prior
two completed fiscal years in the aggregate over the duration of the transaction (without regard to profit or loss); and (iii) in which
a “related party” had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. “Related parties” under this
policy will include: (i) our directors, nominees for director or officers or any person who has served in such roles since the beginning
of the most recent fiscal year, even if he or she does not currently serve in that role; (ii) any record or beneficial owner of more
than 5% of any class of our voting securities; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing if the foregoing person is a
natural person; and (iv) any other person who maybe a “related person” pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange
Act. Pursuant to the policy, the audit committee will consider (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of each related party transaction,
including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated
third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the transaction contravenes our
code of ethics or other policies, (iv) whether the audit committee believes the relationship underlying the transaction to be in the
best interests of the company and its shareholders and (v) if the related party is a director or an immediate family member of a director,
the effect that the transaction may have on a director’s status as an independent member of the board and on his or her eligibility
to serve on the board’s committees. Management will present to the audit committee each proposed related party transaction, including
all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. Under the policy, we may consummate related party transactions only if our audit
committee approves or ratifies the transaction in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the policy. The policy will not permit
any director or officer to participate in the discussion of, or decision concerning, a related person transaction in which he or she
is the related party.
We
are not prohibited from paying any fees (including advisory fees), reimbursements or cash payments to our sponsor, officers or directors,
or our or their affiliates, for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination,
including the following payments, all of which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business combination, will be paid from
funds held outside the trust account:
●
Repayment
of up to an aggregate of $300,000 in loans made to us by our sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses;
●
reimbursement
for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support made available to us by an affiliate of our sponsor, in an
amount equal to $5,000 per month;
●
Payment
of consulting, success or finder fees to our sponsor, our officers, directors, advisors, or their respective affiliates in connection
with the consummation of our initial business combination;
●
We
may engage our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as an advisor or otherwise in connection with our initial business combination
and certain other transactions and pay such person or entity a salary or fee in an amount that constitutes a market standard for
comparable transactions;
●
Reimbursement
for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating, negotiating and completing an initial business combination;
and
●

Director
Independence
NYSE
listing standards require that a majority of our board of directors be independent within one year of our initial public offering. 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 all our directors, other than Justin Lafazan, are “independent directors” as defined in the NYSE listing standards and
applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
ITEM
14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit
fees consist of fees for professional services rendered for the audit of our year-end financial statements and services that are normally

services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial information included in other filings
with the SEC for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 totaled approximately $95,160 and $47,580, respectively. The above amounts
include interim procedures and audit fees.
Audit-Related
Fees
Audit-related
fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit or review of our
year-end financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” These services include attest services that are not
required by statute or regulation and consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards. We did not pay Withum Smith+Brown,

all of the foregoing services, although any services rendered prior to the formation of our audit committee were approved by our board
of directors. Since the formation of our audit committee, and on a going-forward basis, the audit committee has and will pre-approve
all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and terms thereof (subject
to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by the audit committee prior to
the completion of the audit).

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Soulpower
Acquisition Corporation:
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Soulpower Acquisition Corporation as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related statements
of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and for the period from May
14, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our
opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Soulpower Acquisition Corporation
as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and for
the period from May 14, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
1 to the financial statements if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs then the Company will cease
all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the entity’s
financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to Soulpower Acquisition Corporation in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Soulpower
Acquisition Corporation is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express
no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We
have served as Soulpower Acquisition Corporation’s auditor since 2024.

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region in selecting a target. As of December 31, 2025, the Company
had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from May 14, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the
Company’s formation, the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and the search for, evaluation of,
and negotiation with potential Business Combination candidates. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the
completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest
income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
The
registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on April 1, 2025 and on April 3, 2025,
the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 25,000,000 units (the “Units”), which included 3,000,000 Units issued
pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, at $ 10 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 250,000,000 .
Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (“Public Share”) and one right (“Right”) to receive one tenth
(1/10) of a Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (“Public Right”).
Concurrently
with the Initial Public Offering, the Company completed the sale of 620,000 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”)
to its sponsor, Soulpower Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”),
the representative of the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $ 6,200,000 . Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private
Placement Share and one Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of a Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination
(“Private Placement Right”). Of those 620,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units
and Cantor purchased 220,000 Private Placement Units. Transaction costs amounted to $ 15,367,333 consisting of $ 4,400,000 of cash underwriting
fees, $ 10,600,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $ 367,333 of other offering costs.
The
Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least
80% of the net balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held and taxes
payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However,
the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding
voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register
as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no
assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on April 3, 2025, the gross proceeds raised of $ 250,000,000 was placed in the trust account
(the “Trust Account”), with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. The funds are initially to
be invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain
conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations; the holding
of these assets in this form is intended to be temporary and for the sole purpose of facilitating the intended Business Combination.
To mitigate the risk that the Company might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk
increases the longer that the Company holds investments in the Trust Account, the Company may, at any time (based on the management team’s
ongoing assessment of all factors related to the Company’s potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee
to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest bearing
demand deposit account at a bank. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released
to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units will
not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination,
(ii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within
24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or by such earlier liquidation date as board of directors may approve (the
“Completion Window”), subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares properly submitted
in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A)
modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination
or to redeem 100% of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the
Completion Window or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business
Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors,
if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders.

1 - DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
The
Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of the Public Shares upon the completion of a Business
Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender
offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will
be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of
the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially approximately $ 10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds
held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights
upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.
The
Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption were recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion
of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity.”
The
Company will have only the duration of the Completion Window to complete the initial Business Combination. However, if the Company is
unable to complete its initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, the Company will as promptly as reasonably possible
but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, 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 (less taxes payable and
up to $ 100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will
constitute full and complete payment for the Public Shares and completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders
(including the right to receive further liquidation or other distributions, if any), subject to the Company’s obligations under
Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
The
Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive
their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion
of the initial Business Combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares
and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder
shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, although
they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company
fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window and to liquidating distributions from assets outside
the Trust Account; and (iv) vote any founder shares and private placement shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during
or after the Initial Public Offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of an initial Business
Combination (except that any Public Shares such parties may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange
Act would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination transaction).
The
Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services
rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of
intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account
to below the lesser of (i) $ 10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date
of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $ 10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes
payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver
of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims
under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve
for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy
its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the
Company cannot assure that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations.

1 - DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
Proposed
Business Combination
On
November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”) with SWB LLC, a Cayman Islands
limited liability company, and SWB Holdings (“Pubco”), a Cayman Islands exempted holding company, along with other parties specified in the BCA. Under the BCA, the Company and SWB LLC will merge
with wholly owned subsidiaries of Pubco, with the Company’s securityholders receiving non-voting Class A ordinary shares of
Pubco and the members of SWB LLC receiving a combination of non-voting Class A and voting Class V ordinary shares. Following the
consummation of the Business Combination and subject to obtaining all required regulatory approvals, the combined company intends to
operate as an international financial institution focused on digital banking services.
As
of December 31, 2025, the proposed Business Combination had not yet closed, and completion remains subject to customary closing conditions,
including shareholder and regulatory approvals. Until closing, the funds in the Trust Account will remain invested in accordance with
the Company’s governing documents.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $ 207,108 and negative working capital of $ 178,897 . Funds held in the Trust Account remain
unavailable for operating purposes until the earlier of the completion of a business combination or the Company’s liquidation.
The Company has access to additional financing pursuant to the Working Capital Loan (as defined below) made available by the Sponsor
as well as unsecured promissory notes issued to a related party in February 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had borrowed $ 988,480
under the working capital loans from the Sponsor.
The
Company currently expects to incur additional costs in connection with pursuing and completing the proposed business combination, as
well as continuing general and administrative expenses. The closing of the proposed business combination is subject to various customary
conditions and is not guaranteed. If the business combination does not close, the Company will be required to seek an alternative transaction
or, if none can be completed within the required timeframe, liquidate.
Management
has evaluated the Company’s expected cash requirements for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements
in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40 “Going Concern”. Based on this assessment,
cash on hand, together with available financing arrangements, is not sufficient to fund the Company’s projected operating costs
for at least the next twelve months. While the Company intends to pursue additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that
such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
Given
these conditions, and the inherent uncertainty regarding both the completion of the proposed business combination and the Company’s
ability to secure additional funding, management has determined that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern for at least one year after the date of these financial statements.
Risks
and Uncertainties
Various
social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including the war with Iran and rising trade tensions between the
U.S. and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies
with other countries), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide.
As
a result of these circumstances and broader geopolitical instability in Eastern Europe and
the Middle East and/or other future global conflicts, the Company’s ability to consummate
a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately
consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition,
the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to
raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result
of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being
unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related
sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position,
results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of these uncertainties.

2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Out
of Period Adjustment
Subsequent
to the filing of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company
identified an immaterial error related to the amount of the deferred underwriting fees incurred in connection with the Company’s
Initial Public Offering. Management evaluated the effect of the error on the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2025 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and concluded the error was not material in both periods.
As a result, in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an out of period adjustment to increase the deferred underwriting fees
and accumulated deficit, each by $ 1,800,000 .
Emerging
Growth Company Status
The
Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our
Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements
that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required
to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced
disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements
of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously
approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised
financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared
effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial
accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the
requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
The
Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has
different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised
standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements
with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the
extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making
estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating
its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution,
which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $ 250,000 . Any loss of such funds can have a significant impact
on the Company.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company had $ 207,108 and $ 25,386 in cash and did not have any cash equivalents outside of the Trust Account as of December 31, 2025
and 2024, respectively.

Cash
Held in Trust
As
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounting to $ 257,619,976 and $ 0 , respectively, were held in cash
and cash equivalents.
Due from Affiliate
Under
the BCA, the target, SWB LLC, is presently obligated to reimburse specified costs incurred in connection with the proposed Business
Combination irrespective of closing. As the Company has an enforceable claim and collection is probable, the Company recognized the
amount it is owed of $ 1,189,258
as of December 31, 2025, as due from affiliate.
Offering
Costs
The
Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”.
Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20,
“Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into
its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between
Class A ordinary shares and Rights, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to the assigned value
of the Rights and then to the Class A ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to temporary equity,
and offering costs allocated to Public Rights and Private Placement Units were charged to shareholders’ deficit, as the Rights,
after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term
nature.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” 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
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than
not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the
Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as
income tax expense. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and
penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material
deviation from its position.
The
Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently
not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s
tax provision was zero for the periods presented.

Rights
The
Company accounted for the Public and Private Placement Rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the private placement
in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated
and classified the Rights under equity treatment at their assigned values.
Class
A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The
Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s
liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In
accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption
provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur
and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately
upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The
change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available)
and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at
redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet. As of
December 31, 2025, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheets are reconciled in the following

Net
Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share
The
Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. The Company
has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are
shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. The calculation of
diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering
and the private placement since the exercise of the rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. During the year ended
December 31, 2025 and the period from May 14, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive
securities or other contracts aside from the rights that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares that
then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic income (loss)
per ordinary share for the periods presented.

Recent
Accounting Standards
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU
2023-09”), which requires disclosure of incremental tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of
income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.
The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 in the annual report for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 has not had a
material impact on the financial statements and disclosures.
In
November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.”
The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided
to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported
measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation
of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate
resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and
entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing
segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on May 14, 2024, inception.
The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash
flows. The impact of adoption related solely to enhanced disclosures, including the addition of Note 9 - Segment Information.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material
effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Pursuant
to the Initial Public Offering, on April 3, 2025, the Company sold 25,000,000 Units, which includes the partial exercise by the underwriters
of their over-allotment option amounting to 3,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class

and one Private Placement Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of a Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business
Combination. Of those 620,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 220,000
Private Placement Units. The Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering, subject to certain

Founder
Shares
On
June 10, 2024, the Sponsor made a capital contribution of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.004 per share, to cover certain of the Company’s
deferred offering costs and expenses, for which the Company issued 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares, also known as founder shares, to
the Sponsor. On March 13, 2025, the Company effected a share capitalization of 0.33 shares for each Class B ordinary share outstanding,
resulting in the initial shareholders holding an aggregate of 7,666,667 founder shares. On April 1, 2025, the Company effected a share
capitalization of 0.11 shares for each Class B ordinary share outstanding, resulting in the initial shareholders holding an aggregate
of 8,433,333 founder shares (up to 1,100,000 shares of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’
over-allotment option is exercised). On April 3, 2025, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option as part of the
closing of the Initial Public Offering. As such, 100,000 founder shares were forfeited and 8,333,333 Class B ordinary shares are now
outstanding.
The
Company’s initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their founder shares and any Class A ordinary
shares issued upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of (i) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination
or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the initial
Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares
for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the
Company’s initial shareholders with respect to any founder shares (the “Lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
(1) the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days
after the initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummates a transaction after the initial Business Combination which results
in the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property, the founder shares
will be released from the Lock-up.
Administrative
Support Agreement
The
Company has agreed, commencing on the date the Company’s securities are first listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) through
the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an affiliate of Sponsor a total
of $ 5,000 per month for office space, administrative and shared personnel support services. The Company incurred $ 45,000 and $ 0 of Sponsor
management fees for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from May 14, 2024 (inception) to December 31, 2024, respectively.
Working
Capital Loans
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Sponsor, an affiliate of Sponsor, or the Company’s
officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds from time to time or at any time, as may be required (“Working
Capital Loans”). Each Working Capital Loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The Working Capital Loans would be paid upon
consummation of a Business Combination, without interest or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $ 1,500,000 of such Working Capital
Loans for each such person may be convertible into units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $ 10.00 per unit at the
option of the Sponsor. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside
the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital
Loans. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was $ 988,480 and $ 0 , respectively, outstanding under the Working Capital Loans presented
as a current liability under Loan payable - Sponsor.

may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $ 135,000 . The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of
(i) December 31, 2024 and (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. On January 13, 2025, the Company amended the Promissory
Note to increase the aggregate principal amount to $ 300,000 , and to modify it to be payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2025 and

the Promissory Note.
Business
Combination Agreement
On
November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a BCA with SWB LLC and Pubco. At closing, the Company and SWB LLC will merge with wholly
owned subsidiaries of Pubco and become wholly owned subsidiaries of Pubco. The Company’s securityholders are expected to receive
non-voting Class A ordinary shares of Pubco, and SWB LLC members are expected to receive a mix of non-voting Class A and voting Class
V ordinary shares of Pubco. Following closing, Justin Lafazan, the Company’s CEO and the founder and managing member of SWB LLC,
is expected to serve as Chairman and CEO of Pubco and will indirectly control the Class V ordinary shares, the only equity shares of
Pubco entitled to vote, through The Lafazan Brothers LLC. The combined public company plans to operate under the name SOUL WORLD BANK.
Prior
to or simultaneous with the execution of the BCA, SWB LLC entered into binding agreements for contributions to SWB LLC of assets with
an aggregate value of approximately $ 6.75 billion, as defined pursuant to the executed Contribution Agreements (net of debt incurred
or cash consideration payments), in exchange for new non-voting SWB LLC membership interests, with such contributions to occur immediately
prior to closing. Under the BCA, SWB LLC will go public at an implied pre-money transaction value based on assets contributed to SWB
LLC prior to closing of approximately $ 8.1 billion, as defined in the BCA, and subject to increase if additional binding commitments
are executed and consummated prior to closing.
Separately,
Pubco has entered into a committed equity facility (“ELOC”) up to $ 250 million through an Ordinary Shares Purchase
Agreement for non-voting Class A ordinary shares of Pubco with CREO Investments LLC (the “Investor”), pursuant to which
the Investor would provide an equity line of credit that may be increased if mutually agreed upon up to $ 5.0 billion
to Pubco post-closing, subject to the effectiveness of a resale registration statement with the SEC and other customary
conditions.
The
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA and the ELOC is subject to various conditions and there can be no assurance
that either will occur as planned or at all.
NOTE
6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration
Rights
The
holders of the founder shares, Private Placement Units (and its component securities) and units that may be issued upon conversion of
the Working Capital Loans will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of the Company’s securities
held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination pursuant
to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these
securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition,
the holders have certain piggyback registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of
the initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration
statements.
Underwriting
Agreement
The
Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 3,300,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial
Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The
underwriter was entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $ 4,400,000 ($ 0.20 per Unit offered in the Initial Public Offering, excluding
any proceeds from Units sold pursuant to the underwriter’s over-allotment option), which was paid upon the closing of the Initial
Public Offering. In addition, the underwriter was entitled to a deferred fee of (i) $ 0.40 per Unit sold in the base offering of the Initial
Public Offering and (ii) $ 0.60 per Unit sold pursuant to the underwriter’s over-allotment option, if any, or up to an additional
$ 1,800,000 in the aggregate. The underwriter fee was calculated based on the base deal and the over-allotment option, totaling $ 10,600,000
in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event
that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Preference
Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share, with such designations,
voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At December
31, 2025 and 2024, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.
Class
A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share.
Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 620,000 and
0 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively, excluding the 25,000,000 and 0 shares subject to possible redemption
as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Class
B Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share.
Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On June 10, 2024, the Sponsor made a capital contribution
of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.004 per share, to cover certain of the Company’s deferred offering costs and expenses, for which
the Company issued 8,433,333 Class B ordinary shares, also known as founders’ shares, to the Sponsor. On March 13, 2025, the Company
effected a share capitalization of 0.33 shares for each Class B ordinary share outstanding, resulting in the initial shareholders holding
an aggregate of 7,666,667 founder shares. On April 1, 2025, the Company effected a share capitalization of 0.11 shares for each Class
B ordinary share outstanding, resulting in the initial shareholders holding an aggregate of 8,433,333 founder shares (up to 1,100,000
shares of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised).
On April 3, 2025, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option as part of the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
As such, 100,000 founder shares were forfeited and 8,333,333 Class B ordinary shares are now outstanding. As of December 31, 2025 and
2024 there were 8,333,333 and 8,433,333 Class B ordinary shares, respectively, issued and outstanding.
The
founder shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of
the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holder on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share sub-divisions,
share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the
case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or any other equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts
sold in this offering and related to or in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which Class
B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class B
ordinary shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary
shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, 25% of the sum of (i) the total number of
all Class A ordinary shares outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering (including any Class A ordinary shares issued
pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and excluding the private placement shares), plus (ii) all Class A ordinary
shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued, in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination (excluding
any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement-equivalent
units issued to the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or to the Company’s officers or directors upon conversion of working capital
loans) minus (iii) any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by public shareholders in connection with an initial Business Combination;
provided that such conversion of founder shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.
Holders
of record of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share held on
all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Unless specified in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or as
required by the Companies Act or stock exchange rules, an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law and the amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association, which requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by such shareholders as, being
entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting of the company is generally
required to approve any matter voted on by the Company’s shareholders. Approval of certain actions require a special resolution
under Cayman Islands law, which (except as specified below) requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by
such shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting,
and pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, such actions include amending the amended
and restated memorandum and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another company. There is
no cumulative voting with respect to the appointment of directors, meaning, following the Company’s initial Business Combination,
the holders of more than 50% of the ordinary shares voted for the appointment of directors can elect all of the directors. Prior to the
consummation of the initial Business Combination, only holders of the Class B ordinary shares will (i) have the right to vote on the
appointment and removal of directors and (ii) be entitled to vote on continuing the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands
(including any special resolution required to amend the constitutional documents or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case,
as a result of approving a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). Holders of the Class A ordinary
shares will not be entitled to vote on these matters during such time. These provisions of the amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association may only be amended if approved by a special resolution passed by the affirmative vote of at least 90% (or, where such
amendment is proposed in respect of the consummation of the initial Business Combination, two-thirds) of the votes cast by such shareholders
as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting of the Company.
Rights
— Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically
receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional
shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise
addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Cayman law. In the event the Company is not the surviving company upon completion
of the initial business combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order
to receive the one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share underlying each right upon consummation of the Business Combination. If the Company
is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company will redeem the Public Shares
for the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights and the rights will expire
worthless. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 25,620,000 and 0 rights outstanding, respectively.

8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
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:
Level
1: 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.
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples 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.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs based on assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following table presents information
about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the
valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value. There were no assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2024.

9 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
ASC
Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report, in their financial statements, information about operating
segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that
engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is
available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s CODM, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The
Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics
for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management
has determined that there is only one reportable segment.
The
CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported
on the statement of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key
metrics included in net income or loss and total assets, which include the following:

The
CODM also uses the Company’s cash balance to monitor day-to-day liquidity, forecast near-term funding needs for operating expenditures,
and assess whether additional capital (if any) will be required to operate through the end of the combination period.
The
CODM reviews interest earned on the Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy
of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the Trust Agreement.
General
and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to
complete a business combination or similar transaction within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative
costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General
and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a
regular basis.
Dividend
income is reviewed to evaluate total returns on investments held outside the Trust Account, to forecast cash inflows available to support
operations, and to corroborate that overall investment performance aligns with liquidity and capital-preservation objectives prior to
completing a business combination.

10 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Issuance
of Promissory Notes
On
February 19, 2026, the Company entered into two unsecured promissory notes with Soulpower Management LLC (the “Lender”),
the sole managing member of the Sponsor. The Lender is controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and certain
other directors of the Company are members of the Lender.
A
Note
The
Company issued an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of up to $ 785,000 (the “A Note”). The A Note matures on
the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination or (ii) the liquidation of the Company and may
be prepaid at any time without penalty. The A Note bears a flat-rate interest amount equal to 22% of the principal due at maturity, unless
prepaid earlier, and is not convertible into any securities of the Company. The A Note contains customary events of default, certain
of which result in the unpaid principal, accrued interest, and all other amounts becoming immediately due. As of March 27, 2026, the
Company had received $ 745,000 in advances under the A Note. Proceeds were used for general working capital purposes.
B
Note
On
the same date, the Company also issued an unsecured promissory note in a principal amount of up to $ 2,500,000 (the “B Note”).
Under the terms of the B Note, the outstanding principal balance is automatically and irrevocably forgiven in full upon consummation
of the Company’s initial Business Combination, at which time all obligations of the Company under the B Note will be deemed satisfied
without further action. If the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, the B Note becomes due upon the earlier of (i) an
event of default or (ii) the liquidation of the Company. The B Note bears no interest, is not convertible into securities of the Company,
and includes customary default provisions under which the full unpaid principal and all other amounts become immediately due. As of March 27, 2026, the Company had received approximately $ 1,362,050 in advances under the B Note. Proceeds were used for general working capital
purposes.
