On March 20, 2024, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into the Second Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the purchased amount of shares was adjusted to 1,983,750 Class B Ordinary Shares, $0.0126 par value per ordinary share (up to 258,750 Class B Ordinary Shares of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part). On March 29, 2024, the Issuer cancelled 258,750 Class B Ordinary Shares as the underwriter did not exercise their over-allotment.

The description of the Second Amendment to the Subscription Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.5 to the Issuers Form 8-K, filed by the Issuer with the SEC on March 26, 2024 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.5).

Insider Letter

 

On March 20, 2024, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”). Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Sponsor agreed (A) to vote its Founder Shares, any Ordinary Shares underlying the Placement Units and any public shares in favor of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose an amendment to the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligation to redeem the public shares if the Issuer has not consummated a business combination within 15 months (or up to 18 or 21 months if extended) from the completion of the initial public offering or any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, (C) not to redeem any Founder Shares and any shares underlying the Placement Units into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account of the Issuer (as defined in the Insider Letter) in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Issuer’s proposed business combination or a vote to amend the provisions of the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (D) that the Founder Shares and any Ordinary Shares underlying the Placement Units shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if a business combination is not consummated. The Sponsor also agreed that in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, it will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever which the Issuer may become subject as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Issuer for services rendered or products sold to or contracted for the Issuer, or by any target business with which the Issuer has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account; provided that such indemnity shall not apply if such vendor or prospective target business executes an agreement waiving any claims against the Trust Account.

 

The description of the Insider Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on March 26, 2024 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1).
