outstanding under Working Capital Loans.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $ 86,401 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $ 3,745,724 .
−Removed: In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 205-40,
−Removed: Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern”, management has determined that the Company has and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
−Removed: 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 consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
−Removed: Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial Business Combination.
−Removed: If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Accounts.
−Removed: In addition, following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
−Removed: Further, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by June 18, 2023 or by March 18, 2024 if the Board of Directors adopts resolutions, upon request of the Sponsor, to extend the Termination Date up to nine times by an additional one month each time

−Removed: The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date.
−Removed: Risks and Uncertainties
−Removed: Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19
−Removed: pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements.
−Removed: The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
−Removed: NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
−Removed: Basis of Presentation
−Removed: The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
−Removed: Emerging Growth Company
−Removed: 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 stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
−Removed: 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.
−Removed: 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
−Removed: growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
−Removed: 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.
−Removed: 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.
−Removed: Use of Estimates
−Removed: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S.
−Removed: GAAP requires 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.
−Removed: Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment.
−Removed: 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.
−Removed: One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities.
−Removed: Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
−Removed: Cash and Cash Equivalents
−Removed: The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
+Added: of December 31, 2023, the Company had $ 94,703 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit $ 7,590,471 .
+Added: connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 205-40, Presentation of Financial
+Added: Statements—Going Concern”, management has determined that the Company has and will continue to incur significant costs in
+Added: pursuit of its acquisition plans which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
+Added: we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem
+Added: a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional
+Added: securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
+Added: Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would
+Added: only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial Business Combination.
+Added: If we are unable to complete our
+Added: initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate

+Added: Period”), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating.

+Added: 2 — RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Added: connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, management determined
+Added: it should restate its previously reported condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2023, June 30,
+Added: 2023, and September 30, 2023.
+Added: The Company previously accounted for its subscription liability as a liability classified derivative instrument
+Added: which resulted in the Company remeasuring the derivative instrument at fair value at each reporting period with the changes in fair value
+Added: recorded within earnings.
+Added: The need for the restatement arose out of the results of certain financial analysis the Company performed in
+Added: the course of preparing a response to a comment letter received by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on February 1,
+Added: 2024, related to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed January 5, 2024.
+Added: As a result of this analysis, the Company
+Added: concluded that the transaction underlying the subscription liability was representative of the issuance of multiple freestanding instruments
+Added: in a bundled transaction which should not have been remeasured at fair value at each reporting period and should have been accounted
+Added: for using the relative fair value method of accounting in accordance with ASC 470 as previously concluded during the Company’s
+Added: assessment of the Subscription Agreement.
+Added: The error occurred as a result of the lack of certain financial analysis and management review
+Added: in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements during the periods previously identified above.
+Added: As a result of the error,
+Added: the subscription liability and corresponding debt discount recorded within the condensed consolidated balance sheets was overstated,
+Added: and the change in fair value recorded within the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the recognition of additional
+Added: (expense) and income for certain periods as identified above.
+Added: This resulted in an adjustment to the carrying value of debt discount,
+Added: net of amortization, subscription liability, additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit on the condensed balance sheet with the
+Added: offset recorded to change in fair value of subscription liability and interest expense – debt discount on the condensed statement
+Added: of operations.
+Added: connection with the changes listed above, the Company also restated its earnings per share.
+Added: restatement had no impact on the Company’s cash position or amount held in the trust account.
+Added: relevant unaudited interim financial information for the quarterly periods ended March 30, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2023,
+Added: is included in Note 11, Quarterly Financial Information (Unaudited).
+Added: The categories of misstatements and their impact on the previously
+Added: issued financial statements are described in more detail in the tables below.
+Added: previously disclosed, the Company determined that its subscription liability, net of debt discount as of the aforementioned periods had
+Added: been misstated.
+Added: The Company concluded that the impact of applying correction for these errors and misstatements on the aforementioned
+Added: financial statements is material.
+Added: of Misstatements
+Added: Misstatements
+Added: Associated with Subscription Liability
+Added: Subscription liability
+Added: Company previously accounted for its subscription liability as a liability classified derivative instrument which resulted in the Company
+Added: remeasuring the derivative instrument at fair value at each reporting period with the changes in fair value recorded within earnings.
+Added: However, the subscription liability should not have been remeasured at fair value at each reporting period and should have been accounted
+Added: for using the relative fair value method of accounting in accordance with ASC 470.
+Added: The subscription liability recorded within the condensed
+Added: consolidated balance sheets was overstated, and the change in fair value recorded within the condensed consolidated statements of operations
+Added: resulted in the recognition of additional (expense) and income for certain periods as identified above.
+Added: Debt discount
+Added: debt discount corresponding to the subscription liability recorded within the condensed consolidated balance sheets was overstated, and
+Added: the amortization of the debt discount within the condensed consolidated statements of operations resulted in the recognition of additional
+Added: (expense) and income for certain periods as identified above.
+Added: Additional paid-in capital
+Added: correction of the subscription liability resulted in an increase in additional paid-in capital.
+Added: Misstatements
+Added: Accumulated deficit
+Added: correction of the subscription liability and debt discount resulted in additional (expense) and income for certain periods as identified

+Added: 3 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
+Added: of Presentation
+Added: accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
+Added: States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
+Added: of Consolidation
+Added: accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Merger Sub I and
+Added: Merger Sub II.
+Added: There has been no intercompany activity since inception.
+Added: Growth Company
+Added: Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart
+Added: Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting
+Added: requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not
+Added: being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
+Added: Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from
+Added: the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments
+Added: not previously approved.
+Added: Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial
+Added: accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective
+Added: or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting
+Added: The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements
+Added: that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
+Added: The Company has elected not to opt out of
+Added: such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public
+Added: or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies
+Added: adopt the new or revised standard.
+Added: This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public
+Added: company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition
+Added: period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
+Added: preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
+Added: GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
+Added: that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
+Added: financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
+Added: estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment.
+Added: It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
