limitation, statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”
regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations,
are forward-looking statements. Words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,”
“potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and variations thereof
and similar words and expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements relate to
future events or future performance, but reflect management’s current beliefs, based on information currently available. A number
of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed

Overview
We
are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share
reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with,
or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.
We
intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”)
and the sale of the private placement units, and the proceeds of potential sales of our securities in connection with our initial business
combination, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt. We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans.
We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
Pursuant
to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination within
the completion window of twelve (12) months from the consummation of our IPO, subject to our ability to extend such time period by up
to six (6) months, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but
no 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 (which interest shall be net of
amounts withdrawn to pay our income taxes and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then
outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the
right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption,
subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our
obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
Results
of Operations
We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational
activities and those necessary to prepare for the initial public offering and subsequent to our initial public offering, identifying
a target company for an initial business combination, entering into the Merger Agreement (as defined below) with Isdera Group Limited,
and taking actions in connection with the business combination contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Following the initial public offering,
we will not generate any operating revenue until after completion of our initial business combination. We generated non-operating income
in the form of interest income on investments held in trust and cash.

Table of Contents
The
operating costs incurred in the period from January 18, 2024 (inception) to December 31, 2025 consist primarily of approximately $1,315,477
of professional fees, insurance, costs and fees associated with our financial reporting, listing and other public company costs as well
as, subsequent to the IPO, costs associated with legal, travel and other costs to identify and evaluate target businesses of approximately
$730,000. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting, and
auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses related to our initial business combination.
For
the three months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $69,829, which consists of interest earned on cash held in the Trust
Account of $547,573, offset by operating costs of $477,744.
For
the nine months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $553,899, which consists of interest earned on cash held in the Trust
Account of $1,706,108, offset by operating costs of $1,152,209.
Recent
Developments
On
July 18, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Isdera Group Limited,
a Cayman Islands company (“Isdera”), a company that shall become the parent company of Xinghui Automotive Technology (Hainan)
Co., Ltd, a company in the business of designing automobiles in the People’s Republic of China (“Xinghui Automotive Technology”),
and Xinghui Automotive Technology’s principal shareholders for a business combination. The Merger Agreement contemplates that (i)
the Company shall form a company in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “ Purchaser ”)
and (ii) Purchaser shall form a company in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “ Merger
Sub ”) for the purposes of consummating the business combination transactions described in the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, the Company will merge with and into Purchaser, resulting in the Company’s shareholders becoming shareholders
of the Purchaser and concurrently therewith, Merger Sub will merge with and into Isdera, with Isdera surviving the merger and resulting
in Purchaser acquiring 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Isdera (the “ Acquisition Merger ”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration to be paid to Isdera shareholders for the Acquisition Merger is such number
of newly issued Purchaser Ordinary Shares determined by dividing the net value of Isdera, which was agreed to be $1,000,000,000, by $10.00
per share (the “Closing Payment Shares”). Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, a principal shareholder
of Isdera entered into a support agreement with the Company, pursuant to which such shareholder of Isdera agreed not to transfer its
shares of Isdera and to vote in favor of the business combination, subject to the terms of such shareholder support agreement.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Our
liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 for the Founder
Shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $500,000. In connection with the closing of our IPO, the approximately
$337,584 drawn down under the unsecured promissory note was repaid in full.
On
April 1, 2025, we consummated the initial closing of our IPO of 5,000,000 units (the “Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating
gross proceeds of $50,000,000. In connection with the IPO, the underwriters were granted a 45-day option (the “Over-Allotment Option”)
to purchase up to 750,000 additional units to cover over-allotments (the “Option Units”), if any. In two separate closings
of the Over-Allotment Option on April 7, 2025 and April 9, 2025, we sold an additional 750,000 Option Units at a price of $10.00 per
Option Unit and raised additional gross proceeds of $7,500,000.
Simultaneously
with the closing of our IPO, including the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, we consummated the sale of 240,848 Private Placement
Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating total gross proceeds of $2,408,840,
including the cancellation of $337,500 of indebtedness. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right to receive
one-fifth (1/5 th ) of one ordinary share. The Private Placement was conducted as a non-public transaction and, as a transaction
by an issuer not involving a public offering, is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Upon
the closing of the IPO and the private placement, a total of $57,500,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”)
maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as a trustee and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills
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 of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.
Except for the withdrawal of interest earned on the amounts in the trust account to fund the Company’s taxes, if any, or upon the
redemption by public shareholders of Ordinary Shares in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association, none of the funds held in the trust account will be released until the completion of the Company’s
initial business combination or the redemption by the Company of 100% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares issued by the Company in the
Initial Public Offering if the Company does not consummate an initial business combination within 12 months (or up to 18 months, if extended)
after the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

Table of Contents
We
intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the IPO and the private placement, including the funds held in the Trust Account,
in connection with our initial business combination and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our capital stock is
used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account
as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such
working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for
strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay
any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our initial business combination if the
funds available to us outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.
The
Company will use funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence
on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their
representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate
and complete a business combination. We also have ongoing professional and other costs to maintain our reporting, listing, compliance
and administrative requirements of being a publicly traded company. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds not placed in trust
to pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or
to fund a “no-shop” provision, a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions
with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination,
although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity
from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined
based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds
(whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting
due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.
Going
concern consideration
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had $8,849 in cash and cash equivalents held outside of the Trust Account and working capital of $137,696.
For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $69,829, which consists of interest earned on cash held in the Trust
Account of $547,573, offset by operating costs of $477,744. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $553,899,
which consists of interest earned on cash held in the Trust Account of $1,706,108, offset by operating costs of $1,152,209. The Company
has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant
transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination.
We
had a working capital deficit of $340,048 as of December 31, 2025 and negative cash flow of $843,312 in operating activities for the
nine months ended December 31, 2025. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, our liquidity requirements have been satisfied through
the net proceeds from the IPO, the Private Placement, and loans from our Sponsor pursuant to the Promissory Note II, described below.
We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, significant professional fees and costs to maintain our status as a publicly traded
company, as well as significant transaction costs in connection with pursuing the consummation of a Business Combination.
In
order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, on September 12, 2025,
we issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note II”) in the principal amount of up to $1,000,000 to our Sponsor.
The Promissory Note II bears no interest and is repayable by us to the Sponsor in full on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2026 or (ii) the
date of consummation of a Business Combination (the “Maturity Date”). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time. At
any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Sponsor may elect to convert the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note
II into units of our securities at a conversion price of $10.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one ordinary share and one right to receive
one-fifth of one ordinary share. As of December 31, 2025, the principal amount due and owing under the Promissory Note II was $311,605
(see Note 5).
We
will have until 12 months from the closing of our IPO, or up to 18 months from the closing of our IPO, to consummate an initial business
combination. If we do not consummate an initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of our IPO, we will be required
to redeem the public shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve. Accordingly, there is a possibility that an initial business combination
may not be completed within the prescribed period of time.
In
connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15,
Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, management has determined that if we are
unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of the IPO, the requirement
that we cease all operations, redeem the public shares, and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the unaudited financial statements are issued. The unaudited financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Table of Contents
The
Company currently believes that it does not need additional capital to satisfy its liquidity needs beyond the net proceeds from the consummation
of the IPO, the proceeds held outside of the Trust Account, and as discussed above, amounts available to us under the Promissory Note
II (defined above) for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective business combination candidates, performing
due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire,
and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Initial Business Combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying
a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount
necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover,
we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem
a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional
securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Our sponsor, an affiliate of our sponsor or our officers and directors
may, but none of them is obligated to, loan us funds as may be required to fund our working capital requirements. If we complete our
initial business combination, we will repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. In the event
that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay
such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible
into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such units would be identical to the private placement units issued to our
sponsor. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect
to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our sponsor, an affiliate of our sponsor or our officers and directors,
if any, 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. In addition, if we raise additional funds through equity or convertible debt issuances, our public
shareholders may suffer significant dilution, and these securities could have rights that rank senior to our public shares. If we raise
additional funds through the incurrence of indebtedness, such indebtedness would have rights that are senior to our equity securities
and could contain covenants that restrict our operations.
Off-Balance
Sheet Financing Arrangements
We
have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025. We do not
participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable
interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered
into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other
entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual
Obligations
We
do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement
to pay: (1) the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and
administrative services, provided to the Company; (2) our legal counsel a monthly fee of $5,000 for professional services as legal consulting.
We began incurring these fees on April 1, 2025 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of a
Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation.

Registration
Rights
Pursuant
to an agreement entered into on March 31, 2025, our initial shareholders are entitled to registration rights requiring the Company to
register such securities for resale. 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 “piggy-back” registration rights with respect
to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial business combination and rights to require the Company to
register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection
with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting
Agreement
The
Company granted Maxim, the representative of the underwriters, for a period of 45-days, the option to purchase up to 750,000 additional
Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The
underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 1.75% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $875,000 (or $1,006,250 including
the full exercise of the over-allotment option). Additionally, the Company issued the underwriter 4% of the gross proceeds of the IPO
as underwriting discounts and commissions in the form of Representative Shares at a price of $10.00 per ordinary share, which equaled
200,000 shares (or 230,000 shares if the underwriter’s overallotment option is exercised in full) upon the consummation of the
IPO.
In
connection with the closing of the IPO, the Company issued 200,000 Representative Shares to the underwriter. In connection with the issuance
and sales of the Option Units, the Company issued an additional 30,000 Representative Shares to Maxim, the representative of the underwriters.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed 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
(“SEC”). The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of December 31, 2025 has been prepared in accordance
with U.S. GAAP and the rules of the SEC.
Emerging
Growth Company
The
Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting
requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not
being required to comply with the 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 that
is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult
or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Table of Contents
Ordinary
Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
All
of the 5,750,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of
such public shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with
the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.
The
Company accounted for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480). Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) were classified as a liability instrument
and will be measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights
that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the
Company’s control) were classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares were classified as stockholders’
equity. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classified the ordinary shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity
as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company.
Given
that the 5,750,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the units in the IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., rights),
the initial carrying value of ordinary shares classified as temporary equity has been allocated to the proceeds determined in accordance
with ASC 470-20. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete
changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument
will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value
immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting
period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes in redemption value as a deemed dividend and charges against retained earnings
or, in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against additional paid-in capital, over an expected 12-month period, which is the
initial period that the Company has to complete a Business Combination.
Use
of Estimates
In
preparing these unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s management makes estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported 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 unaudited condensed 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.
Income
Taxes
The
Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included
the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized. There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income
tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial
statements.

Table of Contents
Earnings
(Loss) Per Ordinary Share
The
Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. The unaudited condensed
statements of operations and comprehensive income and loss include a presentation of earnings (loss) per redeemable share and earnings
(loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income per share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable
to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both
the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less
any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the shares subject
to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. For the three months ended December 31, 2025 did
not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share
in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the period
presented.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
ASC
Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded
disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques
consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. ASC Topic 820 establishes
a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represents the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These
inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing
the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s
assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances.
The
fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
●
Level
1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability
to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are
readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
●
Level
2 - Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that
are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs
that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.
●
Level
3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820 approximates the
carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts reported
in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities held in trust account, accounts payable and accrued expenses
and due to related parties each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short
period between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest.

Accounting Standards
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a
material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statement.
