Note 4 - Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On January 26, 2022, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (“Class B ordinary shares”) for an aggregate price of $25,000.

On March 4, 2022, the Company effected a share capitalization with respect to our Class B ordinary shares of 1,150,000, resulting in our initial shareholders holding 6,900,000 shares. On August 18, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered for no consideration 1,150,000 shares, resulting in a decrease in the total number of Class B shares outstanding to 5,750,000. On November 17, 2022 the Sponsor surrendered for no consideration 958,333 shares, resulting in a decrease in the total number of Class B shares outstanding to 4,791,667. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated.

On May 7, 2023, the Sponsor transferred 95,500 of its Founder Shares to our special advisor for consulting services. The consulting services offered were considered a benefit that the Company realized as a result of the Sponsors transaction with the special advisor. The fair value of the consulting services was determined to be a financing expense in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718.

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of the Company’s initial Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in Note 6. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their Class B ordinary shares into an equal number of Class A ordinary shares, subject to adjustment, at any time.

Private Placement

The Sponsor, BTIG, LLC, Exos Capital LLC, and JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC purchased an aggregate of 762,500 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $7,625,000 in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the proceeds of which were recorded in additional paid in capital. Each Private Unit consists of one share of Class A ordinary share (“Private Share”) and one warrant (“Private Warrant”). Each Private Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

Related Party Loans

In addition, to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination, the initial shareholders, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an initial business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that an initial 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. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of an initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement-equivalent units of the post initial business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per private placement-equivalent unit. These units would be identical to the Private Units. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no outstanding Working Capital Loans.

Promissory Note – Related Party

On January 26, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. As of January 18, 2023, the Company had borrowed $237,234

under the Promissory Note. On January 18, 2023 the Company paid $245,540 to the Sponsor, resulting in an overpayment of $8,306 that was recorded as a related party receivable, which was subsequently refunded to the Company prior to December 31, 2023. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the outstanding balance under the Promissory Note was $0.

On January 18, 2024, the Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $600,000 to pay for up to twelve additional one-month extension payments (the “Extension Note”). On each of January 18, 2024, February 20, 2024, and March 12, 2024, the Company drew $50,000, $150,000 in the aggregate, against the Extension Note to pay for each additional one-month extension. The Extension Note bears no interest and is repayable in full (subject to amendment or waiver) upon the earlier of (i) the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, or (ii) the date of the Company’s liquidation.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was $150,000 and $0 outstanding under the Extension Note.

The Company will pay $10,000 per month to the Sponsor for certain office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative services as may be reasonably required from time to time.
