The business combination will be completed as a result of the Acquisition Merger (as defined below) and the SPAC Merger (as defined below).

Business Combination between Cetus Capital and MKD

On June 20, 2023, Cetus Capital entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan corporation with registration number 28408583 (“MKD Taiwan”), MKDWELL Limited, a company incorporated in the BVI with BVI Company Number 2121160 (“MKD BVI”, and together with MKD Taiwan and their subsidiaries, “MKD”), and Ming-Chia Huang, in his capacity as the representative of the shareholders of MKD Taiwan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”), pursuant to which, among other things: (A) the Shareholders’ Representative will incorporate MKDWELL Tech Inc., a BVI business company (“PubCo”), for the purpose of serving as the public listed company whose shares will be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which company shall initially be owned by the Shareholders’ Representative; (B) PubCo will incorporate MKDMerger1 Inc., a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), for the sole purpose of merging with and into MKD BVI (the “Acquisition Merger”) with MKD BVI being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo; (C) PubCo will incorporate MKDMerger2 Inc., a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2”), for the sole purpose of the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “SPAC Merger”, and together with the Acquisition Merger, the “Mergers”; and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement being collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”), in which SPAC will be the surviving entity; (D) MKD BVI and Merger Sub 1 will effect the Acquisition Merger; and (E) the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo will be a publicly traded holding company listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

In this proxy statement/prospectus, “PubCo” refers to MKDWELL Tech Inc., a BVI business company which will serve as the public listed company whose shares will be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market following listing, the “Combined Company” refers to PubCo and its consolidated subsidiaries after the consummation of the Business Combination, and “MKD” means MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and all of their respective subsidiaries, except that references in the section “MKD’S Business” to “MKD,” the “Group,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and other similar terms refer to MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI, and all of their subsidiaries. See “Frequently Used Terms” for a glossary of frequently used terms and technical terms used throughout this proxy statement/prospectus.

PubCo was incorporated in the BVI on July 25, 2023 with BVI Company Number 2128871 and became a party to the Business Combination Agreement on July 31, 2023, and each of Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 was incorporated in the BVI on August 1, 2023 with BVI Company Numbers 2129350 and 2129349, respectively, and became a party to the Business Combination Agreement on August 10, 2023.

As a result of the Business Combination, among other things, (i) all outstanding ordinary shares of MKD BVI will be cancelled in exchange for up to approximately 23,000,000 ordinary shares of PubCo (the “PubCo Ordinary Shares”), (ii) each outstanding unit of Cetus Capital (the “Cetus Unit”) will be automatically detached, (iii) each unredeemed outstanding share of Class A common stock of Cetus Capital (the “Cetus Common Stock”) will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, (iv) every six (6) outstanding rights of Cetus Capital (the “Cetus Rights”) will be contributed in exchange for one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, cancelled and cease to exist, and (v) each warrant to purchase one (1) share of Cetus Common Stock (the “Cetus Warrants”) will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for a warrant to purchase one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share (the “PubCo Warrants”).

This proxy statement/registration statement is registering the following securities:

| ● | 3,840,809 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable in exchange for all outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock in connection with the SPAC Merger on a one-for-one basis, including (i) 2,058,934 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable in exchange for shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by Cetus Capital’s public stockholders; (ii) 1,724,375 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable in exchange for shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by Cetus Sponsor LLC; and (iii) 57,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable in exchange for shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by EF Hutton, division of benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”);

| ● | 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares estimated to be issuable in consideration for the exchange of ordinary shares of MKD BVI owned by its shareholders in connection with the Acquisition Merger;

| ● | 1,006,145 PubCo Ordinary Shares representing (i) 958,333 PubCo Ordinary Shares in exchange for the cancellation of 5,750,000 Cetus Rights held by the public rightsholders of Cetus Capital; and (ii) 47,812 PubCo Ordinary Shares in exchange for the cancellation of 286,875 Cetus Rights held by Cetus Sponsor LLC;

| ● | 6,036,875 PubCo Warrants representing (i) 5,750,000 PubCo Warrants to purchase up to 5,750,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to the public stockholders of Cetus Capital (the “Public PubCo Warrants”); and (ii) 286,875 PubCo Warrants to purchase up to 286,875 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to Cetus Sponsor (the “Private PubCo Warrants”, and collectively with the Public PubCo Warrants, the “PubCo Warrants”); and

| ● | 6,036,875 PubCo Ordinary Shares representing (i) 5,750,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public PubCo Warrants (the “Public PubCo Warrant Shares”); and (ii) 286,875 PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private PubCo Warrants (the “Private PubCo Warrant Shares”, and together with the Public PubCo Warrant Shares, the “PubCo Warrant Shares”).

Up to a maximum of approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the total number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that will be issued to MKD BVI shareholders is “the sum of the Aggregate Merger Consideration less the amount of Closing Company Debt, plus the amount of Closing Company Cash, in each case, as reflected on the Closing Statement, such sum being then MULTIPLIED by the percentage of equity interest of the Company which MKD BVI directly or indirectly owns as of the Closing Date, and then DIVIDED by $10.” As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns 17,011,476 of the 27,278,652 issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan, or approximately 62.36%. The “Aggregate Merger Consideration” means $230,000,000 as stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement. Assuming no further adjustments result from the “Closing Company Debt” and the “Closing Company Cash,” and assuming that MKD BVI continues to own 62.36% of the equity interest of MKD Taiwan on the closing date of the Business Combination, an aggregate of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI.

At the Special Meeting, Cetus Capital stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

| 5. | The Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal: a proposal to consider and vote upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, certain governance provisions in the Proposed PubCo Charter, presented separately in accordance with SEC requirements (the “Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal” or “Proposal No. 5”).

(a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D) (the “NTA Amendment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 7”); and

| 8. | The Adjournment Proposal: a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting under certain circumstances, which is more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus (the “Adjournment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 8” and, together with the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory Director Election Proposal and the NTA Amendment Proposal, the “Proposals”).

Shares, Warrants and Rights Following the Business Combination

Each Public Unit consists of one Public Share, one Public Warrant and one Public Right. Each Public Warrant is exercisable for one PubCo Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. Each Public Right will convert into one-sixth (1/6) of one PubCo Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

If the Cetus Capital stockholders approve the Business Combination Proposal, immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, all outstanding Public Units will separate into their individual components of Public Shares and Public Rights and will cease separate existence and trading.

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the current equity holdings of the Cetus Capital stockholders shall be exchanged as follows:

| (i) | Each share of Cetus Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the SPAC Merger (other than any redeemed shares), will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist and for each share of such Cetus Common Stock, PubCo shall issue to each Cetus Capital stockholder (other than Cetus Capital stockholders who exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination) one validly issued PubCo Ordinary Share, which, unless explicitly stated herein, shall be fully paid;

| (ii) | The holders of Cetus Rights convertible into one-sixth (1/6) of one share of Cetus Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the SPAC Merger will receive one-sixth (1/6) of one PubCo Ordinary Share in exchange for the cancellation of each Cetus Right; provided, however, that no fractional shares will be issued and all fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole share; and

| (iii) | The holders of Cetus Warrants issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the SPAC Merger will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist, and for each Cetus Warrant PubCo shall issue to each holder of a Cetus Warrant a PubCo Warrant.

It is anticipated that, upon consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital’s stockholders immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, including the Sponsor (as defined below) and EF Hutton, will own approximately 25.7% of the issued PubCo Ordinary Shares (assuming the issuance of 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement), and MKD BVI’s shareholders immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination will own approximately 74.3% of the issued PubCo Ordinary Shares. These relative percentages assume that none of the public stockholders of Cetus Capital immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination exercise their redemption rights, as discussed herein, and that MKD BVI owns 62.36% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MKD Taiwan immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, and assuming no other adjustments due to MKD Taiwan’s cash and debt. If any of the public stockholders of Cetus Capital immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination exercise their redemption rights, the anticipated percentage ownership of the stockholders of Cetus Capital immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination will be reduced. You should read “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — The Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement” and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements” for further information.

The Cetus Units, Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights are currently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbols “CETUU”, “CETU”, “CETUW” and “CETUR”, respectively. PubCo has applied to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares and the PubCo Warrants on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbols “MKDW” and “MKDWW”, respectively, in connection with the Closing. Cetus Capital cannot assure you that the PubCo Ordinary Shares will be approved for listing on Nasdaq.

Overview of PubCo

PubCo is a holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. As a holding company with no material operations of its own, following the closing of the Business Combination, PubCo will conduct substantially all of its operations through its operating subsidiaries in the PRC and Taiwan. Because of PubCo’s corporate structure, and since MKD’s operations are primarily located in the PRC and Taiwan, PubCo will be subject to various legal and operational risks and uncertainties associated with being based in or having the majority of our operations in China and the complex and evolving PRC laws and regulations. Any failure or perceived failure to fully comply with regulatory requirements could significantly limit or completely hinder PubCo’s ability to offer securities to investors, cause significant disruption to its business operations, and severely damage PubCo’s reputation, which could materially and adversely affect PubCo’s financial condition and results of operations and could cause the value of PubCo’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless. For a description of PubCo’s corporate structure following the closing of the Business Combination, see “MKD’s Business—Corporate Structure and Reorganization” beginning on page 110.

PRC Regulations

The PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate activities in the oversea securities listing in China, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using a variable interest entity structure. On February 17, 2023, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) released the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, or the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, and five supporting guidelines, which have come into effect on March 31, 2023. The Overseas Listing Trial Measures will regulate both direct and indirect overseas offering and listing by PRC domestic companies by adopting a filing-based regulatory regime. Pursuant to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, whether directly or indirectly, should fulfill the filing procedures and report relevant information to the CSRC within three working days after submitting listing applications and subsequent amendments. According to the Notice on the Administrative Arrangements for the Filing of the Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies from the CSRC, or the CSRC Notice, the Business Combination may require the designation of an operating entity in the PRC to complete the filing procedures with the CSRC. MKD has submitted the filing with the CSRC on September 21, 2023, and has since been informed by CSRC that it is not within the scope of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. As advised by MKD’s PRC legal counsel, Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD believes that the Business Combination and listing on Nasdaq does not require further review or approval by CSRC. However, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China.”

Additionally, the PRC regulatory requirements regarding cybersecurity are evolving, including adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews. As advised by Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD believes it will not be subject to cybersecurity review with the Cyberspace Administration of China, or the “CAC,” after the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (the “Cybersecurity Review Measures”) became effective on February 15, 2022, considering that (i) it currently do not have personal information of more than one million people and does not anticipate that it will be collecting over one million people’s personal information in the foreseeable future, (ii) it has not been identified as a “critical information infrastructure operator” by any government authorities, and (iii) it has not received any notification of cybersecurity review from relevant governmental authorities due to any impact or potential impact on national security. In addition, as advised by Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD has obtained all requisite licenses, permits and approvals from relevant authorities in the PRC that are material to its operations. If MKD or its subsidiaries: (i) do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, (ii) inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and MKD becomes required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, such developments could have a material adverse effect on MKD’s business operations and financial results.

Cash Transfers And Distributions

Cash may be transferred among PubCo or MKD and its subsidiaries in the following manner: (1) funds may be transferred to PubCo’s or MKD’s operating subsidiaries from PubCo or MKD as needed in the form of capital contribution or shareholder loans; (2) dividends or other distributions may be paid by PubCo’s or MKD’s operating subsidiaries to PubCo or MKD; and (3) PubCo’s or MKD’s PRC subsidiaries may lend to and borrow from each other from time to time for business operation purposes. PubCo or MKD and its subsidiaries are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to PubCo’s or MKD’s subsidiaries in the form of loans or capital contributions, provided that the applicable governmental registration and approval requirements are satisfied. In the future, cash proceeds raised from financings conducted outside of China, may be transferred by PubCo or MKD to its PRC subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans. See page 19, “Cash Transfers And Distributions in PubCo and MKD” for further details on cash transfers within the MKD Group for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023 and the three months ended March 31, 2024.

As a holding company, PubCo or MKD may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its PRC operating subsidiaries for its cash and financing requirements. MKD currently has two subsidiaries incorporated in Mainland China, MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai. Current PRC regulations permit Chinese companies to distribute dividends only out of their accumulated profits, and additionally, PRC companies are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of the company’s registered capital. Funds under such reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. In addition, if any of PubCo’s or MKD’s PRC subsidiaries incur debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends.

Dividend or distribution payments from MKD’s PRC operating entities MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai to MKD Samoa are subject to PRC withholding tax of 10% under PRC law. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company, such as MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai out of Mainland China is subject to examination by the banks designated by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the PRC (“SAFE”). Dividend or distribution payments by MKD Taiwan to MKD BVI shall be subject to a withholding tax of 21% under current Taiwan tax law. Under the current foreign exchange control laws and regulations of Taiwan, MKD Taiwan may, upon filing a report with the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) (the “CBC”), purchase foreign exchange with New Taiwan Dollars and remit the same out of Taiwan for purposes other than trade or service related payments, in an amount up to US$50,000,000 (or such other amount as determined by the CBC from time to time, at its discretion) per calendar year, without special approval from the CBC. Foreign exchange purchase for purposes other than trade or service related payments exceeding the applicable ceiling would require a special approval from the CBC, which is discretionary and would be decided by the CBC on a case-by-case basis. Dividend or distribution payments by MKD BVI to PubCo are not subject to withholding tax under BVI law. Similarly, dividend or distribution payments by PubCo to PubCo shareholders (including U.S. investors) are not subject to withholding tax under BVI law.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no dividends or distributions have been made to PubCo’s shareholders by PubCo, or to any U.S. investors. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023 and the three months ended March 31, 2024, no dividend was paid by MKD Taiwan or MKD BVI to MKD Taiwan’s or MKD BVI’s shareholders respectively, or to any U.S. investors. See “Cash Transfers And Distributions in PubCo and MKD” for further details.

Currently, other than complying with applicable PRC laws and regulations, each of PubCo and MKD does not have its own cash management policy and procedures that dictate how funds are transferred. In addition, its PRC subsidiaries generate their revenue primarily in Renminbi, and cash transfers from PubCo and MKD’s PRC subsidiaries to their parent companies outside of China are subject to PRC government regulation of currency conversion. As a result, any restriction on currency exchange may limit the ability of PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to PubCo and MKD. To the extent cash or assets in the business is in the PRC or a PRC entity, the funds and assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of mainland China due to Chinese government’s regulation and limitations on the ability of PubCo and MKD or its subsidiaries by the PRC government to transfer cash or assets.

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act

PubCo’s Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading on a national exchange or “over-the-counter” markets under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCAA”) if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) determines it is unable to inspect or fully investigate our auditor and as a result the exchange where our securities are traded may delist our securities. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “AHFCAA”), which was signed into law on December 29, 2022, amending the HFCAA and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive instead of three consecutive years. Pursuant to the HFCAA, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021, which found it was unable to inspect or investigate completely certain named registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. MKD’s independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum Asia CPAs LLP, is headquartered in the United States and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis and as such, it is not affected by or subject to the PCAOB’s Determination Report. Whether the PCAOB will continue to be able to satisfactorily conduct inspections of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms is subject to uncertainties and depends on a number of factors out of our and our auditor’s control. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—PubCo’s securities may be prohibited from trading in the United States under the HFCAA in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely MKD’s auditor.”

Investing in the securities of PubCo involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 28 for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in the securities of PubCo.

As of June 4, 2024, there was approximately $22.2 million in Cetus Capital’s Trust Account (as defined below). On June 7, 2024, the last sale price of Cetus Common Stock was $10.63.

Pursuant to the Existing Charter, Cetus Capital is providing its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of Cetus Common Stock at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the Special Meeting, including interest, less taxes payable, divided by the number of then outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock that were sold as part of the Cetus Units in Cetus Capital’s initial public offering (“IPO”), subject to the limitations described herein. Cetus Capital estimates that the per-share price at which Public Shares may be redeemed from cash held in the Trust Account will be approximately $10.79 at the time of the Special Meeting, based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024 and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. Cetus Capital’s public stockholders may elect to redeem their shares even if they vote for the Business Combination or do not vote at all. Cetus Capital has no specified maximum redemption threshold under the Existing Charter. Holders of outstanding Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.

Cetus Capital is providing this proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to its stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Special Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements of the Special Meeting. Cetus Sponsor LLC and EF Hutton, who together own approximately 46.4% of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date, have agreed to vote their shares of Cetus Common Stock in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and intend to vote for the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory Director Election Proposal, the NTA Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.

Each stockholder’s vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting in person, please submit your proxy card without delay. Cetus Capital’s stockholders may revoke proxies at any time before they are voted at the meeting. Voting by proxy will not prevent a stockholder from voting in person if such stockholder subsequently chooses to attend the Special Meeting. If you are a holder of record and you attend the Special Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person. Assuming that a quorum is present, attending the Special Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting will have the same effect as voting against all the Proposals. And broker non-votes will have no effect on any of the Proposals.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted in favor of each of the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the Special Meeting in person, the effect will be that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting of stockholders and, if a quorum is present, will have the effect of a vote against the Business Combination Proposal and no effect on the Adjournment Proposal. If you are a stockholder of record and you attend the Special Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

We encourage you to read this proxy statement/prospectus carefully. In particular, you should review the matters discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” beginning on page 28.

The Cetus Board has unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement, and unanimously recommends that Cetus Capital stockholders vote “FOR” approval of each of the Proposals. When you consider the Cetus Board’s recommendation of these Proposals, you should keep in mind that Cetus Capital’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with or differ from your interests as a stockholder. See the section titled “Proposals to be Considered by Cetus Capital Stockholders: The Business Combination — Interests of Cetus Capital’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination.”

On behalf of the Cetus Board, I thank you for your support and we look forward to the successful consummation of the Business Combination.

| Sincerely,
| /s/ Chung-Yi Sun

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

AND THE SPECIAL MEETING

Q: | What is the purpose of this document?
A: | Cetus Capital is proposing to consummate the Business Combination. The Business Combination will be effected through the Mergers, which are described in this proxy statement/prospectus. In addition, the Business Combination Agreement and each of the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum thereto are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annexes A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5 and A-6, respectively, and are incorporated into this proxy statement/prospectus by reference. This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about the proposed Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the Special Meeting. You are encouraged to carefully read this proxy statement/prospectus, including “Risk Factors” and all the annexes hereto.

Approval of the Business Combination will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Cetus Stock present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Q: | What is being voted on at the Special Meeting?
A: | Below are the Proposals that the Cetus Capital stockholders are being asked to vote on:

| ● | The Business Combination Proposal to approve the Business Combination;

| ● | The Nasdaq Proposal to approve the issuance of more than 20% of the current total issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement;

| ● | The Incentive Plan Proposal to approve PubCo’s 2024 Share Incentive Plan;

| ● | The PubCo Charter Proposal to amend PubCo’s memorandum and articles of association;

| ● | The Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal regarding certain governance provisions in PubCo’s proposed memorandum and articles of association;
| ● | The Advisory Director Election Proposal regarding the appointment of five (5) directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will become directors of PubCo;
| ● | The NTA Amendment Proposal to approve an amendment to the Existing Charter of Cetus Capital to remove the requirement that Cetus Capital have net assets of at least $5,000,001 upon the consummation of its initial business combination; and

| ● | The Adjournment Proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting in the event Cetus Capital does not receive the requisite stockholder vote to approve the above Proposals.

Approval of each of the Proposals requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Cetus Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof; provided, that approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, and approval of the NTA Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. As of the record date, 1,781,875 shares held by the Sponsor and EF Hutton, or approximately 46.4% of the outstanding Cetus Common Stock, would be voted in favor of each of the Proposals.

Q: | Are any of the proposals conditioned on one another?
A: | It is important for you to note that in the event that the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, Cetus Capital will not consummate the Business Combination. If Cetus Capital does not consummate the Business Combination and fails to complete an initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will be required to dissolve and liquidate. The Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory Director Election Proposal and the NTA Amendment Proposal are conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal. Adoption of the Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any of the other Proposals.

Q: | Do any of Cetus Capital’s directors or officers have interests that may conflict with my interests with respect to the Business Combination?
A: | Cetus Capital’s directors and officers may have interests in the Business Combination that are different from your interests as a stockholder. The Sponsor holds an aggregate of 1,437,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock, which it originally purchased on June 10, 2022 for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Cetus Capital consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units, all of which were sold to the Sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,868,750. If Cetus Capital does not consummate the Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will be required to dissolve and liquidate and the securities held by the Sponsor will be worthless because the Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to any liquidation distributions.

The exercise of the discretion of Cetus Capita’s directors and officers in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Business Combination may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in the best interest of the stockholders of Cetus Capital.

Q: | When and where is the Special Meeting?
A: | The Special Meeting will take place on July 9, 2024 at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time. The Cetus Board has determined to convene and conduct the Special Meeting in a virtual meeting format at https://www.cstproxy.com/cetuscapitalacquisition/sm2024. Stockholders will NOT be able to attend the Special Meeting in person. If you wish to access the Special Meeting telephonically (listen-only), you may do so within the U.S. and Canada by dialing 1-800-450-7155 (toll-free) and outside the U.S. and Canada by dialing 1-857-999-9155 (standard rates apply), and by using the following conference identification number: 2682805. This proxy statement includes instructions on how to access the virtual Special Meeting and how to listen and vote from home or any remote location with Internet connectivity.
Q: | Who may vote at the Special Meeting?
A: | Only holders of record of Cetus Common Stock as of the close of business on June 11, 2024 (the record date) may vote at the Special Meeting. As of June 11, 2024, there were 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Please see the section titled “The Special Meeting — Record Date; Who is Entitled to Vote” for further information.
Q: | What is the quorum requirement for the Special Meeting?
A: | Stockholders representing a majority of the shares of capital stock issued and outstanding as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting must be present in person or represented by proxy in order to hold the Special Meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum. Cetus Common Stock will be counted for purposes of determining if there is a quorum if the stockholder (i) is present and entitled to vote at the meeting, or (ii) has properly submitted a proxy card or voting instructions through a broker, bank or custodian. In the absence of a quorum, the Special Meeting will be adjourned to the next business day at the same time and place or to such other time and place as the directors may determine.
Q: | What vote is required to approve the Proposals?
A: | Approval of each of the Proposals will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof; provided, that approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock outstanding on the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and approval of the NTA Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

With respect to all of the proposals, other than the PubCo Charter Proposal and the NTA Amendment Proposal, attending the Special Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting will have the same effect as voting “AGAINST” such proposals and failing to instruct your bank, brokerage firm or nominee to attend and vote your shares will have no effect on any of such proposals.

With respect to the PubCo Charter Proposal and the NTA Amendment Proposal, both attending the Special Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting, and failing to instruct your bank, brokerage firm or nominee to attend and vote your shares, will have the same effect as voting “AGAINST” such proposal.

Q: | How will the Sponsor and EF Hutton vote?
A: | The Sponsor and EF Hutton, who as of the record date together owned 1,781,875 shares of Cetus Common Stock (none of which were publicly purchased), or approximately 46.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock, have agreed to vote their respective shares acquired by them prior to the IPO in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and other related proposals. To the extent that any public shares are purchased, such public shares will not be voted as required by Tender Offers and Schedules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations Question 166.01 promulgated by the SEC.

Q: | What do I need to do now?
A: | We urge you to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes, and consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a Cetus Capital stockholder. You should vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card.
Q: | Do I need to attend the Special Meeting to vote my shares?
A: | No. You are invited to attend the Special Meeting to vote on the Proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus. However, you do not need to attend the Special Meeting to vote your Cetus Common Stock. Instead, you may submit your proxy by signing, dating and returning the applicable enclosed proxy card in the pre-addressed postage paid envelope. Your vote is important. Cetus Capital encourages you to vote as soon as possible after carefully reading this proxy statement/prospectus.
Q: | Am I required to vote against the Business Combination Proposal in order to have my Cetus Common Stock redeemed?
A: | No. You are not required to vote against the Business Combination Proposal in order to have the right to demand that Cetus Capital redeem your Cetus Common Stock for cash equal to your pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (including interest earned on your pro rata portion of the Trust Account, net of taxes payable) before payment of deferred underwriting commissions. These redemption rights in respect of the Cetus Common Stock are sometimes referred to herein as “redemption rights.” If the Business Combination is not completed, holders of Cetus Common Stock electing to exercise their redemption rights will not be entitled to receive such payments and their Cetus Common Stock will be returned to them.
Q: | How do I exercise my redemption rights?
A: | If you are a public stockholder and you seek to have your shares redeemed, you must (i) demand, no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on July 5, 2024 (two business days before the Special Meeting), that Cetus Capital redeem your shares for cash, and (ii) submit your request in writing to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent, at the address listed at the end of this section and deliver your shares to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent (physically, or electronically using the DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) system) at least two business days prior to the vote at the Special Meeting.

Any corrected or changed written demand of redemption rights must be received by Cetus Capital’s transfer agent two business days prior to the Special Meeting. No demand for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent at least two business days prior to the vote at the Special Meeting.

Public stockholders may seek to have their shares redeemed regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination and whether or not they are holders of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date. Any public stockholder who holds Cetus Common Stock on or before July 5, 2024 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, at the consummation of the Business Combination.

Q: | How can I vote?
A: | If you were a holder of record of Cetus Common Stock on June 11, 2024, the record date for the Special Meeting, you may vote with respect to the Proposals in person at the Special Meeting, or by submitting a proxy by mail so that it is received prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on July 9, 2024, in accordance with the instructions provided to you under the section titled “The Special Meeting.” If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, your broker or bank or other nominee may provide voting instructions (including any telephone or Internet voting instructions). You should contact your broker, bank or nominee in advance to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own will be properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person, obtain a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.
Q: | If my shares are held in “street name” by my bank, brokerage firm or nominee, will they automatically vote my shares for me?
A: | No. Under Nasdaq rules, your broker, bank or nominee cannot vote your Cetus Common Stock with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank or nominee. Cetus Capital believes the Proposals are non-discretionary and, therefore, your broker, bank or nominee cannot vote your Cetus Common Stock without your instruction. Broker non-votes will not be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum and will have no effect on the Proposals. If you do not provide instructions with your proxy, your bank, broker or other nominee may submit a proxy card expressly indicating that it is NOT voting your Cetus Common Stock; this indication that a bank, broker or nominee is not voting your Cetus Common Stock is referred to as a “broker non-vote.” Your bank, broker or other nominee can vote your Cetus Common Stock only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your Cetus Common Stock in accordance with directions you provide.
Q: | What if I abstain from voting or fail to instruct my bank, brokerage firm or nominee?
A: | Cetus Capital will count a properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” with respect to a particular Proposal as present for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting of Cetus Capital stockholders. For purposes of approval, an abstention on any Proposals will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” such Proposal. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the Special Meeting in person, the effect will be that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting of stockholders and, if a quorum is present, will have the effect of a vote against the Business Combination Proposal and no effect on the Adjournment Proposal.
Q: | What happens if I sell my Cetus Common Stock before the Special Meeting?
A: | The record date for the Special Meeting is earlier than the date that the Business Combination is expected to be consummated. If you transfer your Cetus Common Stock after the record date, but before the Special Meeting, unless the transferee obtains from you a proxy to vote those shares, you would retain your right to vote at the Special Meeting. However, you would not be entitled to receive any PubCo Ordinary Shares following the consummation of the Business Combination because only Cetus Capital stockholders at the time of the consummation of the Business Combination will be entitled to receive PubCo Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination.

Q: | Will I experience dilution as a result of the Business Combination?
A: | Prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, the Cetus Capital public stockholders who hold Public Shares issued in the IPO own approximately 53.6% of issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock. After giving effect to the Business Combination and to the issuance of (i) up to approximately 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to the MKD BVI shareholders immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination in connection with the Acquisition Merger; assuming MKD BVI owns a 62.36% equity interest in MKD Taiwan and there are no further adjustments to the amount of consideration shares under the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) up to 4,789,454 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the Cetus Capital stockholders in connection with the SPAC Merger (assuming no Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights and an aggregate of 1,006,145 shares are issued upon conversion of the Cetus Rights); and (iii) an aggregate of 172,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares to EF Hutton (including 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement), and assuming that none of the Public Warrants or Private Warrants (or the PubCo Warrants issuable upon the exchange thereof) are exercised, it is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, and after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, the ownership interests in PubCo as the public company will be as set forth in the table below:

Q: | What happens if a substantial number of Public Stockholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?

A: | Cetus Capital’s Public Stockholders may vote in favor of the Business Combination and still exercise their redemption rights, although they are not required to vote for or against the Business Combination, or vote at all, in order to exercise such rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shares are substantially reduced as a result of redemptions by Public Stockholders.

If the Business Combination is completed, the immediate per share value of PubCo Ordinary Shares that are received in exchange for Public Shares will be significantly reduced when redemptions increase.

The book value per share of the Ordinary Shares after the Business Combination would be $1.02 under the minimum redemption scenario, $0.49 if 50% of all Public Shares are redeemed, $0.28 under the maximum redemption scenario (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved) and a deficit of $0.10 under the maximum redemption scenario (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented). Under the maximum redemption scenario (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved), the holders of 1,409,540 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, which represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), thereby leaving 649,394 Public Shares unredeemed. Under the maximum redemption scenario (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented), the holders of 2,058,934 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, thereby leaving no Public Shares unredeemed.

A summary calculation table is as follows:

| (1) | Based on the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023, which assumes the consummation of the Business Combination.
| (2) | Assumes that holders of 1,029,467 Public Shares, or 50% of all Public Shares, exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
| (3) | Assumes that the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented, and that holders of 1,409,540 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, leaving 649,394 Public Shares outstanding, which represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).
| (4) | Assumes that the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and that holders of 2,058,934 Public Shares, or 100% of all Public Shares, exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
| (5) | Includes PubCo Ordinary Shares received upon exchange of shares of Cetus Common Stock received upon conversion of the Private Rights, but excludes PubCo Ordinary Shares underlying any Cetus Units that the Sponsor chooses to be repaid for any working capital or extension loans it has extended to Cetus Capital, assuming the Sponsor chooses to be repaid fully in cash for such loans.

Assuming 100% redemption of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares

Under the maximum redemption scenario which assumes 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares are redeemed, funds from the trust account of Cetus Capital will be used to pay the redemption amounts to all redeeming shareholders, leaving no remaining funds.

Additionally, the Combined Company will upon Closing of the Business Combination be liable for a sum of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. Such agreement modified the underwriting agreement dated January 31, 2023 between EF Hutton and Cetus Capital, such that the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000 due to EF Hutton was partly equitized, with $862,500 (one-half) being payable in cash upon Closing and the remaining $862,500 (one-half) being payable in the form of 115,000 new PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton.

As at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had total liabilities of $3,272,230, which includes but is not limited to the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000 due to EF Hutton. Taking into account the equitization of $862,500 (one-half) of such underwriting commission, as at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied from the trust account, and (i) the deferred underwriting commission of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, (ii) franchise tax of $179,876 and (iii) income tax of $255,097 has been paid (collectively the “Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses,” amounting to $1,297,473 in aggregate.) It is not anticipated that the Closing of the Business Combination will be contingent upon immediate satisfaction of the other remaining liabilities of Cetus Capital or the satisfaction of any liabilities of MKD.

In view of the cash and cash equivalents of $320,971 available to Cetus Capital and $924,428 available to MKD as at December 31, 2023 and assuming no material changes of such liabilities and cash resources from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing:

| a) | To fully satisfy the Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $52,074 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

| b) | To fully satisfy the adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730 of Cetus Capital as of December 31, 2023, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $1,164,331 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

Assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights

Alternatively, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights, while the Business Combination is approved by Cetus Capital stockholders, $5,000,001 of net tangible assets will remain, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), which funds will be available to fully satisfy the total liabilities of Cetus Capital as at December 31, 2023. Assuming no material changes of such liabilities from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing, the Business Combination can close without being subject to additional funds being raised by the Combined Company.

See also “Risk Factors—The Business Combination may not close if there are insufficient funds remaining in the Trust Account or from external sources to satisfy all validly tendered redemptions.”

Q: | Are MKD BVI’s shareholders required to approve the Business Combination?
A: | Yes. The approval by the shareholders of MKD BVI of the Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement is required to consummate the Business Combination. In the event that the Business Combination or the Business Combination Agreement fails to be authorized or approved by the shareholders of MKD BVI, Cetus Capital can terminate the Business Combination Agreement.

7

Q: | Is the consummation of the Business Combination subject to any conditions?
A: | Yes. The obligations of each of Cetus Capital, MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and the Acquisition Entities to consummate the Business Combination are subject to conditions, as more fully described in the section titled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — The Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement” in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Q: | Can I change my vote after I have mailed my proxy card?
A: | Yes. You may change your vote at any time before your proxy is voted at the Special Meeting. You may revoke your proxy by executing and returning a proxy card dated later than the previous one, or by attending the Special Meeting in person and casting your vote by hand or by ballot (as applicable) or by submitting a written revocation stating that you would like to revoke your proxy that our proxy solicitor receives prior to the Special Meeting. If you hold your Cetus Common Stock through a bank, brokerage firm or nominee, you should follow the instructions of your bank, brokerage firm or nominee regarding the revocation of proxies. If you are a record holder, you should send any notice of revocation or your completed new proxy card, as the case may be, to:

Q: | Should I send in my stock certificates now?
A: | Yes. Cetus Capital’s stockholders who intend to have their shares redeemed should send their certificates or tender their shares electronically no later than two business days before the Special Meeting. Please see the section titled “The Special Meeting — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your ordinary shares for cash.
Q: | When is the Business Combination expected to occur?
A: | Assuming the requisite stockholder approvals are received, Cetus Capital expects that the Business Combination will occur as soon as practicable following the Special Meeting, but only after the registration of the applicable Plan of Merger by the Registrar of Corporate Affairs of the BVI with respect to the Acquisition Merger and subsequent issue of the relevant Certificate of Merger. However, if Cetus Capital anticipates that it may not be able to consummate the Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period (as it may be extended from time to time as described in the Existing Charter), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, either the Sponsor or MKD Taiwan, or both of them together, shall deposit in the Trust Account on or prior to the applicable deadline, the requisite amount necessary to extend the existence of Cetus Capital, as more fully set forth in the Existing Charter and the Business Combination Agreement. Please see the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal – General Description of Business Combination and Business Combination Agreement – Covenants Pending Closing – Payment of Extension Fees” for further details regarding the responsibility of Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan to provide funds to extend Cetus Capital’s business combination period.
Q: | Who will manage PubCo?
A: | In connection with the Closing, all of the officers and directors of Cetus Capital will resign. Following the Closing of the Business Combination, Ming-Chia Huang will be appointed as Chief Executive Officer of PubCo and Min-jie Cui will be appointed as Chief Financial Officer of PubCo. According to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the PubCo Board will consist of seven (7) members, of which a majority of whom will be considered “independent” under Nasdaq’s listing standards, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate five (5) directors and the Sponsor having the right to designate two (2) directors. The identities of five (5) director nominees of PubCo after the Closing have been ascertained. For more information on PubCo’s current and anticipated management, see the section titled “PubCo’s Directors and Executive Officers after the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Q: | What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?
A: | If the Business Combination is not consummated, Cetus Capital may seek another suitable business combination. If Cetus Capital does not consummate a business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, then pursuant to Article IX of the Existing Charter, Cetus Capital’s officers must take all actions necessary in accordance with the General Corporation Law of Delaware to dissolve and liquidate Cetus Capital as soon as reasonably practicable. Following dissolution, Cetus Capital will no longer exist as a company. In any liquidation, the funds held in the Trust Account, plus any interest earned thereon (net of taxes payable), together with any remaining out-of-trust net assets will be distributed pro-rata to holders of Cetus Common Stock who acquired such shares in the IPO or in the aftermarket. The estimated consideration that each share of Cetus Common Stock would be paid at liquidation would be approximately $10.79 per share for stockholders based on amounts on deposit in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. The closing price of Cetus Common Stock on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024 was $10.63. The Sponsor and EF Hutton waived the right to any liquidation distribution with respect to any Cetus Common Stock held by them.

8

Q: | What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account following the Business Combination?
A: | Following the Closing, holders of Cetus Common Stock exercising redemption rights will receive their per share redemption price out of the funds in the Trust Account. The balance of the funds will be released to PubCo and utilized to fund working capital needs of PubCo. As of June 4, 2024, there was approximately $22.2 million in the Trust Account. Cetus Capital estimates that approximately $10.79 per outstanding Public Share will be paid to the public investors exercising their redemption rights, based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024 and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. Any funds remaining in the Trust Account after such uses will be used for future working capital and other corporate purposes of the combined entity.
Q: | What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?
A: | In the event that a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) elects to redeem its Cetus Common Stock for cash, the treatment of the transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as sale or exchange of Cetus Common Stock under Section 302 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). If the redemption qualifies as a sale or exchange of Cetus Common Stock, the U.S. Holder will be treated as recognizing capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the redemption and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in Cetus Common Stock surrendered in such redemption transaction. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for Cetus Common Stock redeemed exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to Cetus Common Stock have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. See the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights.”
Q: | Will holders of Cetus Common Stock or Cetus Rights be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination?
A: | Subject to the limitations and qualifications described in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences – Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination,” the Merger qualifies as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

However, Section 367(a) of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder provide that, where a U.S. person exchanges stock or securities in a U.S. corporation for stock or securities in a non-U.S. (“foreign”) corporation in a transaction that qualifies as a reorganization (including an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code), the U.S. person is required to recognize any gain, but not loss, realized on such exchange unless certain additional requirements are met. We do not anticipate that the Merger will satisfy the applicable requirements under Section 367(a).

9

Pursuant to Section 367(a), a U.S. Holder that exchanges its Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants or Cetus Rights, as applicable, for PubCo Ordinary Shares or PubCo Warrants, as applicable, pursuant to the Merger will recognize gain (but not loss) in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the fair market value of the PubCo Ordinary Shares or PubCo Warrants received, over (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants or Cetus Rights exchanged.

The tax consequences of the Merger are complex and will depend on your particular circumstances. For a more detailed discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger and the Business Combination, see the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences – Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to determine the tax consequences to them (including the application and effect of any state, local or other income and other tax laws) of the Business Combination.

The Parties to the Business Combination

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp.

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on June 7, 2022. Cetus Capital was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On February 3, 2022, Cetus Capital sold 5,750,000 Public Units at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Public Units granted to the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000 related to its IPO. Each Public Unit consists of one Public Share, one Public Warrant and one Public Right. Each Public Right will convert into one-sixth (1/6) of one PubCo Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

Concurrently with the closing of Cetus Capital’s IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,868,750 in a private placement, and Cetus Capital issued 57,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock to EF Hutton for nominal consideration.

The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If Cetus Capital does not complete a Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business 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), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

As of March 31, 2024, cash of $19,545 was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.

Upon closing of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $58,506,250 ($10.175 per Public Unit) was placed in the Trust Account and can be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial business combination and the liquidation due to Cetus Capital’s failure to complete a business combination within the applicable period of time.

In February 2024, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting, as a result of which $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

The Public Units, the Public Shares, the Public Warrants and the Public Rights are each quoted on Nasdaq, under the symbols “CETUU”, “CETU”, “CETUW” and “CETUR”, respectively.

Terms of the Business Combination

The Business Combination Agreement

On June 20, 2023, Cetus Capital entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan corporation with registration number 28408583 (“MKD Taiwan”), MKDWELL Limited, a company incorporated in the BVI with BVI company number 2121160 (“MKD BVI”), and Ming-Chia Huang, in his capacity as the representative of the shareholders of MKD Taiwan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”), pursuant to which, among other things: (A) the Shareholders’ Representative will incorporate MKDWELL Tech Inc., a BVI business company (“PubCo”), for the purpose of serving as the public listed company whose shares shall be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which company shall initially be owned by the Shareholders’ Representative; (B) PubCo will incorporate MKDMerger1 Inc., a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), for the sole purpose of merging with and into MKD BVI (the “Acquisition Merger”) with MKD BVI being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo; (C) PubCo will also incorporate MKDMerger2 Inc., a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2”) for the sole purpose of the merger of Cetus Capital with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “SPAC Merger”, and together with the Acquisition Merger, the “Mergers”; and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement being collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”), in which Cetus Capital will be the surviving entity; (D) MKD BVI and Merger Sub 1 will effect the Acquisition Merger; and I Cetus Capital and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo will be a publicly traded holding company listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market. As used herein, the “Combined Company” refers to PubCo and its consolidated subsidiaries after the consummation of the Business Combination.

12

As a result of the Business Combination, among other things, (i) all outstanding ordinary shares of MKD BVI will be cancelled in exchange for up to approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares, (ii) each outstanding Cetus Unit will be automatically detached, (iii) each unredeemed outstanding share of Cetus Common Stock will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, (iv) every six (6) outstanding Cetus Rights will be contributed in exchange for one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, cancelled and cease to exist, and (v) each warrant to purchase one (1) share Cetus Common Stock (the “Cetus Warrants”) will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for a warrant to purchase one PubCo Ordinary Share (the “PubCo Warrants”).

Up to a maximum of approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the total number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that will be issued to MKD BVI shareholders is “the sum of the Aggregate Merger Consideration less the amount of Closing Company Debt, plus the amount of Closing Company Cash, in each case, as reflected on the Closing Statement, such sum being then MULTIPLIED by the percentage of equity interest of the Company which MKD BVI directly or indirectly owns as of the Closing Date, and then DIVIDED by $10.” As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns 17,011,476 of the 27,278,652 issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan, or approximately 62.36%. The “Aggregate Merger Consideration” means $230,000,000 as stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement. Assuming no further adjustments result from the “Closing Company Debt” and the “Closing Company Cash,” and assuming that MKD BVI continues to own 62.36% of the equity interest of MKD Taiwan on the closing date of the Business Combination, an aggregate of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI.

Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan have agreed that the Closing shall occur no later than November 3, 2023, which date was extended to June 30, 2024 pursuant to the Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Termination Date”).

On July 31, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a First Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement (the “First Addendum”), pursuant to which (A) MKDWELL Tech Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to PubCo thereunder and (B) the parties agreed to extend the date by which PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 must execute an addendum to become parties to the Business Combination Agreement from July 31, 2023 to August 20, 2023.

On August 10, 2023, MKDMerger1 Inc. and MKDMerger2 Inc. each executed and delivered a Second Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Second Addendum”), pursuant to which (A) MKDMerger1 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 1 thereunder and (B) MKDMerger2 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 2 thereunder.

On October 31, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $575,000 into the Trust Account in connection with the extension of the Business Combination Period from November 3, 2023 to February 3, 2024. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”). The First MKD Loan is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI containing substantially the same terms as the Extension Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the First MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 575,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor.

On November 19, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Third Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Third Addendum”) to extend the Termination Date from November 3, 2023 to February 1, 2024.

On December 14, 2023, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, the members of the Cetus Board (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor and EF Hutton, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the Business Combination Period, including but not limited to those shares of Cetus Common Stock pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

On January 31, 2024, Cetus Capital held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of Cetus Capital approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Cetus Capital must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Cetus Board (the “2024 Extension”). Cetus Capital implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension. In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

13

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused five additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $250,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for five additional one month periods, until July 3, 2024. These deposits were made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Sponsor Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “Second MKD Loan”). The Second MKD Loan is evidenced by a note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 containing substantially the same terms as the Sponsor Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the Second MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 300,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor (the “Pledged Shares”). In addition, the Sponsor and Cetus Capital entered into a Stock Pledge Agreement with respect to the pledge of the Pledged Shares.

On February 1, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fourth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from February 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024. On April 30, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from April 30, 2024 to June 30, 2024.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements have been entered into with any PIPE investors to purchase new ordinary shares of PubCo. There is no certainty that any PIPE financing will be secured if required to meet any redemption requests or other working capital requirements of the Combined Company. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied.

The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement and the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement, the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum, which are attached hereto as Annexes A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5 and A-6, respectively.

Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement

On April 24, 2024, Cetus Capital, EF Hutton, MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo (MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo being collectively referred to as the “MKD Parties”) entered into the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, EF Hutton waived $862,500 of the $1,725,000 cash deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”) that would otherwise be immediately due and payable to it pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated January 31, 2023 by and between Cetus Capital and EF Hutton upon the closing of the Business Combination, accepting in lieu thereof (i) a one-time cash payment of $862,500 on or before the closing of the Business Combination and (ii) the issuance of 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares at $10.00 per share on or before the closing of the Business Combination.

The Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement also provides that, within sixty (60) days of the closing of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall cause the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement to be registered under the Securities Act.

If the aggregate volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares that EF Hutton holds as a result of the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, as of the effectiveness date of the registration statement for such Ordinary Shares, is lower than $1,150,000 (the “Original Aggregate Share Value”) (the difference between the VWAP value on such date and the Original Aggregate Share Value, the “Difference in Amount”), then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares at a new value of PubCo Ordinary Shares (the “New Share Price”) in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on the effectiveness date of the registration statement. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties and/or their successors in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton the Difference in Amount by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the effectiveness date of the registration statement, subject to a maximum of 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares being issued.

If the date that is five (5) trading days prior to the day the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction & Discharge Agreement are eligible for release pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the aggregate VWAP value of such PubCo Ordinary Shares is lower than the Original Aggregate Share Value, then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successor in interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares at the New Share Price in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on such date. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties, or their successor in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton for the Difference in Amount in issuing additional Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price of such additional Ordinary Shares shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the end of the twelve-month month period immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, subject to a maximum of 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares being issued.

Post-Business Combination Structure and Impact on the Public Float

The following table illustrates the ownership structure of PubCo immediately following the Business Combination. The equity interests shown in the table below were calculated based on the assumptions that none of the parties in the table below purchase Cetus Common Stock in the open market and that MKD BVI owns 62.36% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MKD Taiwan immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination. The following table also assumes (i) the issuance of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the MKD BVI shareholders immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination in connection with the Acquisition Merger; (ii) the issuance of up to 4,789,454 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the Cetus Capital stockholders in connection with the SPAC Merger (assuming no Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights and an aggregate of 1,006,145 shares are issued upon conversion of the Cetus Rights); (iii) the issuance of an aggregate of 172,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares to EF Hutton (including 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement); and (iv) that none of the Public Warrants or Private Warrants (or the PubCo Warrants issued in exchange therefor) are exercised.

If the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants (or the PubCo Warrants issuable in exchange therefor) are exercised, and assuming that the other assumptions noted in the introduction to the table above continue to apply, the ownership structure of PubCo immediately following the Business Combination would be as illustrated in the following table.

If the actual facts are different than these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by Cetus Capital’s public stockholders following the Business Combination will be different.

Additional funding required under different redemption scenarios

Assuming 100% redemption of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares

The Combined Company will upon Closing of the Business Combination be liable for a sum of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. Such agreement modified the underwriting agreement dated January 31, 2023 between EF Hutton and Cetus Capital, such that the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000 due to EF Hutton was partly equitized, with $862,500 (one-half) being payable in cash upon Closing and the remaining $862,500 (one-half) being payable in the form of 115,000 new PubCo Ordinary Shares.

As at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had total liabilities of $3,272,230, including the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000. Taking into account the equitization of $862,500 portion of such underwriting commission, as at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied from the trust account, and (i) the deferred underwriting commission of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, (ii) franchise tax of $179,876 and (iii) income tax of $255,097 has been paid (collectively the “Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses,” amounting to $1,297,473 in aggregate.) It is not anticipated that the Closing of the Business Combination will be contingent upon immediate satisfaction of the other remaining liabilities of Cetus Capital or MKD.

In view of the cash and cash equivalents of $320,971 available to Cetus Capital and $924,428 available to MKD as at December 31, 2023 and assuming no material changes of such liabilities and cash resources from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing:

| a) | To fully satisfy the Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $52,074 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

| b) | To fully satisfy the adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730 of Cetus Capital as of December 31, 2023, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $1,164,331 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

Assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights

Alternatively, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights, while the Business Combination is approved by Cetus Capital stockholders, $5,000,001 of net tangible assets will remain, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), which funds will be available to fully satisfy the total liabilities of Cetus Capital as at December 31, 2023. Assuming no material changes of such liabilities from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing, the Business Combination can close without being subject to additional funds being raised by the Combined Company.

Management and Board of Directors Following the Business Combination

In connection with the Closing, all of the officers and directors of Cetus Capital will resign. Following the Closing of the Business Combination, Ming-Chia Huang will be appointed as President & Chief Executive Officer of PubCo and Min-jie Cui will be appointed as Chief Financial Officer of PubCo. Effective as of the Closing, the PubCo Board will consist of seven (7) members, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate five (5) directors and the Sponsor having the right to designate two (2) directors. The identities of five (5) director nominees of PubCo after the Closing have been ascertained. For more information on PubCo’s current and anticipated management, see the section titled “PubCo’s Directors and Executive Officers after the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Additional Agreements Executed at the Signing of the Business Combination Agreement

Lock-Up Agreements

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, and as a condition thereto, the directors and officers of PubCo as of the Closing, all shareholders who hold more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding equity securities of PubCo as of the Closing and the Sponsor will enter into lock-up agreements with PubCo (the “Lock-up Agreements”). Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreements, the shareholders party thereto will not, during the 180 day period following the Closing (the “Lock-Up Period”), and subject to certain exceptions, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Lock-Up Shares (as defined below), or enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, or otherwise publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any short sales with respect to such shares. “Lock-Up Shares” means any of the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Acquisition Merger or the SPAC Merger, as applicable, as well as any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the right to receive, Cetus Common Stock or PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired during the Lock-Up Period, other than PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired in open market transactions during the Lock-Up Period.

15

The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreements does not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual agreements, a form of which is included as Exhibit A to the Business Combination Agreement and as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

At the Closing, PubCo, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, EF Hutton and certain other holders of the securities of Cetus Capital will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, PubCo will agree to provide such holders with certain rights relating to the registration for resale of certain PubCo Ordinary Shares held by such holders at, or acquired by such holders in connection with, the Closing of the Business Combination. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement will provide certain demand and piggyback registration rights to the applicable shareholders, subject to underwriter cutbacks and issuer blackout periods. PubCo will agree to pay certain fees and expenses relating to registrations under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual agreement, a form of which is included as Exhibit D to the Business Combination Agreement and as Exhibit 10.2 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference. PubCo has also agreed to register the resale of the PubCo Ordinary Shares that may be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to the Existing Charter, Cetus Capital’s public stockholders may elect to have their shares redeemed for cash at the applicable redemption price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, including interest (net of taxes payable), by (ii) the total number of then-outstanding public shares. Based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals, this would have amounted to approximately $10.79 per share.

You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

| (i) | (x) directly hold shares of public Cetus Common Stock or (y) hold shares of public Cetus Common Stock through Cetus Units and you elect to separate your Cetus Units into the underlying shares of public Cetus Common Stock, public Cetus Warrants and public Cetus Rights prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public Cetus Common Stock; and
| (ii) | prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 5, 2024, (a) submit a written request to the transfer agent that Cetus Capital redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

Holders of outstanding Cetus Units must separate the underlying Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Common Stock. If Cetus Units are registered in a holder’s own name, the holder must deliver the certificate for its Cetus Units to the transfer agent with written instructions to separate the Cetus Units into their individual component parts. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the certificates back to the holder so that the holder may then exercise his, her or its redemption rights upon the separation of the Cetus Common Stock from the Cetus Units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds Cetus Units for an individual or entity (such individual or entity, the “beneficial owner”), the beneficial owner must instruct such nominee to separate the beneficial owner’s Cetus Units into their individual component parts. The beneficial owner’s nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to the transfer agent. Such written instructions must include the number of Cetus Units to be separated and the nominee holding such Cetus Units. The beneficial owner’s nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant Cetus Units and a deposit of an equal number of Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the nominee to exercise the beneficial owner’s redemption rights upon the separation of the Cetus Common Stock from the Cetus Units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, beneficial owners should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If beneficial owners fail to cause their Cetus Common Stock to be separated in a timely manner, they will likely not be able to exercise their redemption rights.

16

Any request for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to two business days immediately preceding the Special Meeting. Furthermore, if a stockholder delivered his certificate for redemption and subsequently decided prior to the date immediately preceding the Special Meeting not to elect redemption, he may simply request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of the public shares, together with any affiliate of his or her or any other person with whom he or she is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)-(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the Cetus Common Stock.

If a holder exercises its redemption rights, then such holder will be exchanging its public shares for cash and will no longer own shares of the post-Business Combination company. Such a holder will be entitled to receive cash for its public shares only if it properly demands redemption and delivers its shares (either physically or electronically) to our Transfer Agent in accordance with the procedures described herein. Please see the section titled “The Special Meeting — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

A redemption payment will only be made in the event that the proposed Business Combination is consummated. If the proposed Business Combination is not completed for any reason, then public stockholders who exercised their redemption rights would not be entitled to receive the redemption payment. In such case, Cetus Capital will promptly return the share certificates to the public stockholder.

Voting Securities, Record Date

As of June 11, 2024, and after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, there were 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock issued and outstanding. Only Cetus Capital’s stockholders who hold shares of Cetus Common Stock of record as of the close of business on June 11, 2024 are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment of the Special Meeting. Approval of the Proposals will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting; provided, that approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and approval of the NTA amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

As of the record date, the Sponsor and EF Hutton together owned and were entitled to vote 1,781,875 shares of Cetus Common Stock, or approximately 46.4% of Cetus Capital’s outstanding shares. With respect to the Business Combination, the Sponsor and EF Hutton have agreed to vote their shares of Cetus Common Stock in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and intend to vote for the other Proposals although there is no agreement in place with respect to voting on the other Proposals.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Cetus Capital will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the current shareholders of MKD BVI having a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, MKD Taiwan senior management comprising all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of MKD Taiwan and MKD BVI compared to Cetus Capital, and MKD Taiwan / MKD BVI operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MKD BVI issuing stock for the net assets of Cetus Capital, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Cetus Capital will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MKD Taiwan / MKD BVI.

Regulatory Approvals

The Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are not subject to any additional U.S. federal or state regulatory requirements or approvals, or any regulatory requirements or approvals under the laws of the BVI, except for the registration by the Registrar of Corporate Affairs in the BVI of the Plans of Merger and subsequent issue of the Certificates of Merger.

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

Certain of Cetus Capital’s directors and executive officers may be deemed to have interests in the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement that are different from, or in addition to, those of Cetus Capital’s shareholders generally. These interests may present these individuals with certain potential conflicts of interest. Our independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during their evaluation and negotiation of the Business Combination and in unanimously approving, as members of the Cetus Board, the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Business Combination. The Cetus Board concluded that the potential benefits that it expected Cetus Capital and its shareholders to achieve as a result of the Business Combination outweighed the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination.

Although none of the directors or officers of Cetus Capital or Cetus Sponsor have an interest in MKD Taiwan, when Cetus Capital shareholders consider the recommendation of the Cetus Board in favor of adoption of the Business Combination Proposal and the other related Proposals, they should keep in mind that Cetus Capital’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, their interests as shareholders, including the following:

| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will be required to liquidate. In such event, the 1,437,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor, which were acquired prior to the IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, will be worthless. Such shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $15.3 million based on the closing price of Cetus Common Stock of $10.63 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;

| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, the 286,875 Private Units purchased by the Sponsor for a total purchase price of $2,858,750, will be worthless. Such Private Units had an aggregate market value of approximately $3.0 million based on the closing price of Cetus Units of $10.60 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;

| ● | The exercise of Cetus Capital’s directors’ and officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the transaction may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in our stockholders’ best interest;

| ● | Cetus Capital’s officers and directors, the Sponsor and its affiliates will be reimbursed for any reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Cetus Capital’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations (including the Business Combination). As of June 7, 2024, an aggregate of $0 had been incurred or accrued in respect of such expense reimbursement obligation;

| ● | In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Cetus Capital’s insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan Cetus Capital funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. If Cetus Capital completes a Business Combination, Cetus Capital may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, Cetus Capital may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete an initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension, subject to the obligation of MKD Taiwan to fund all or a portion of the deposit for each extension as more fully set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into private units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. These private units would be identical to the Private Units. As of June 7, 2024, the Sponsor loaned to Cetus Capital an aggregate of approximately $1.0 million, which amount remains unpaid as of such date;

18

| ● | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate; and

| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is completed, there will be five (5) members of the board of directors of PubCo whose identities have been determined as at the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, three (3) of whom were nominated by MKD Taiwan and two (2) of whom were nominated by the Sponsor.

Because of the existence of these interests, the exercise of the discretion of the directors and officers of Cetus Capital in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the transaction may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in the best interest of the Cetus Capital stockholders. In addition to the foregoing, Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation excludes the corporate opportunity doctrine, and any other analogous doctrine, from applying to directors and officers of Cetus Capital unless such corporate opportunity is offered to a director or officer solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Cetus Capital and such opportunity is one Cetus Capital is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for Cetus Capital to pursue. The potential conflict of interest relating to the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine in Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation did not impact its search for an acquisition target and Cetus Capital was not prevented from reviewing any opportunities as a result of such waiver.

Cash Transfers And Distributions in PubCo and MKD

Cash may be transferred among PubCo or MKD and its subsidiaries in the following manner: (1) funds may be transferred to PubCo’s or MKD’s operating subsidiaries from PubCo or MKD as needed in the form of capital contribution or shareholder loans; (2) dividends or other distributions may be paid by PubCo’s or MKD’s operating subsidiaries to PubCo or MKD; and (3) PubCo’s or MKD’s PRC subsidiaries may lend to and borrow from each other from time to time for business operation purposes. PubCo or MKD and its subsidiaries are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to PubCo’s or MKD’s subsidiaries in the form of loans or capital contributions, provided that the applicable governmental registration and approval requirements are satisfied. In the future, cash proceeds raised from financings conducted outside of China, may be transferred by PubCo or MKD to its PRC subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans.

As a holding company, PubCo may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its PRC operating subsidiaries for its cash and financing requirements. MKD currently has two subsidiaries incorporated in Mainland China, MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai. Current PRC regulations permit Chinese companies to distribute dividends only out of their accumulated profits, and additionally, PRC companies are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of the company’s registered capital. Funds under such reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. In addition, if any of PubCo’s or MKD’s PRC subsidiaries incur debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends.

The corporate structure of PubCo immediately after the closing of the Business Combination is expected to be as follows. “Other Existing MKD Taiwan Shareholders” refer to the existing shareholders of MKD Taiwan who did not participate in the Taiwan Reorganization and will continue to own 37.64% of MKD Taiwan after the Business Combination based on their direct ownership of the shares of MKD Taiwan.

Dividend or distribution payments from our PRC operating entities MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai to MKD Samoa are subject to PRC withholding tax of 10% under PRC law. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company, such as MKD Jiaxing and MKD Shanghai out of Mainland China is subject to examination by the banks designated by SAFE. Dividend or distribution payments by MKD Taiwan to MKD BVI shall be subject to a withholding tax of 21% under current Taiwan tax law. Under the current foreign exchange control laws and regulations of Taiwan, MKD Taiwan may, upon filing a report with the CBC, purchase foreign exchange with New Taiwan Dollars and remit the same out of Taiwan for purposes other than trade or service related payments, in an amount up to US$50,000,000 (or such other amount as determined by the CBC from time to time, at its discretion) per calendar year, without special approval from the CBC. Foreign exchange purchase for purposes other than trade or service related payments exceeding the applicable ceiling would require a special approval from the CBC, which is discretionary and would be decided by the CBC on a case-by-case basis. Dividend or distribution payments by MKD BVI to PubCo are not subject to withholding tax under BVI law. Similarly, dividend or distribution payments by PubCo to PubCo shareholders (including U.S. investors) are not subject to withholding tax under BVI law.

20

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no dividends or distributions have been made to PubCo’s shareholders by PubCo, or to any U.S. investors. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023 and the three months ended March 31, 2024, no dividend was paid by MKD Taiwan or MKD BVI to MKD Taiwan’s and MKD BVI’s shareholders respectively, or to any U.S. investors.

Expected Uses Of Funds In Connection With The Business Combination

As of June 4, 2024, Cetus Capital had a total of approximately $22.2 million in its Trust Account, which would be available to MKD in the event the Business Combination is approved by Cetus Capital stockholders, but subject to redemption by Cetus Capital stockholders.

Depending on the rate of redemption by Cetus Capital stockholders, MKD plans to use the net proceeds from this Business Combination as follows:

| ● | approximately 20% for the expansion of MKD’s research and development team and for the development of new technologies, patents and products;

| ● | approximately 30% for the expansion of MKD’s manufacturing capacity;

| ● | approximately 20% for the expansion of MKD’s marketing and sales channels, and the expansion of marketing and sales channels for its future camper van business;

| ● | approximately 20% for the expansion of working capital for MKD’s daily operations; and

| ● | approximately 10% for general corporate purposes, which may include strategic investments and acquisitions, although we have not identified any specific investments or acquisition opportunities at this time.

The foregoing represents MKD’s current intentions based upon present plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds. PubCo’s management will have flexibility and discretion in the application of net proceeds from this Business Combination, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the use of these net proceeds.

In using the proceeds of this Business Combination, PubCo is permitted under PRC laws and regulations as an offshore holding company to provide funding to its PRC subsidiaries only through loans or capital contributions. Subject to satisfaction of applicable government registration and approval requirements, it may extend inter-company loans to its PRC subsidiaries or make additional capital contributions to its PRC subsidiaries to fund its capital expenditures or working capital. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain these government registrations or approvals on a timely basis, if at all, which may delay or prevent us from providing the proceeds of this Business Combination to its PRC subsidiaries.

Recommendations of the Cetus Board to the Cetus Capital Stockholders

After careful consideration of the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, the Cetus Board has determined that Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to and in the best interests of Cetus Capital and its stockholders. In reaching its decision with respect to the Business Combination, the Cetus Board reviewed various industry and financial data and the due diligence and evaluation materials provided by MKD Taiwan. The Cetus Board did not obtain a fairness opinion on which to base its assessment. The Cetus Board recommends that Cetus Capital’s stockholders vote:

| ● | FOR the Business Combination Proposal;

| ● | FOR the Nasdaq Proposal;

| ● | FOR the Incentive Plan Proposal;

21

| ● | FOR the PubCo Charter Proposal;

| ● | FOR the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposals;
| ● | FOR the Advisory Director Election Proposal;
| ● | FOR the NTA Amendment Proposal; and

| ● | FOR the Adjournment Proposal.

Summary of Risk Factors

In evaluating the Business Combination and the Proposals to be considered and voted on at the Special Meeting, you should carefully review and consider the risk factors set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 28 of this proxy statement/prospectus. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in that section, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on (i) Cetus Capital’s ability to complete the Business Combination and (ii) the business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of the Combined Company following the Closing of the Business Combination.

In particular, your attention is drawn to MKD’s corporate structure. See page 109 of “MKD’s Business.” MKD was founded in Taiwan and is a China-based business. Having a majority of its business in China, MKD is subject to risks arising from the legal system in China, including risks and uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice. The PRC government has significant authority to exert influence on the ability of a China-based company, like MKD, to conduct its business, accept foreign investments or list on a U.S. stock exchange. For example, MKD face risks associated with regulatory approvals of offshore offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory actions, and cybersecurity and data privacy. The PRC government may intervene with or influence our operations at any time. Any such action, including to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, could result in a material change to MKD’s operations, significantly limit or completely hinder PubCo’s ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of PubCo’s securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless. Given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

PubCo and MKD may also face the following risks and uncertainties, including those related to doing business in China.

Risks Related to PubCo

| ● | no public market for PubCo’s shares and uncertainty in the development of an active trading market for PubCo’s shares;

| ● | price volatility of PubCo’s shares;

| ● | sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of PubCo’s shares;

| ● | potential dilution for existing shareholders upon PubCo’s issuance of additional shares;
| ● | PubCo’s warrant agreement contains exclusive forum provisions;
| ● | Some or all of PubCo’s directors and officers will reside outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult, or impossible, for investors to enforce federal securities laws or their other legal rights;

| ● | potential treatment of PubCo as a passive foreign investment company;

22

| ● | potential treatment of PubCo as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

| ● | exemptions from requirements applicable to other public companies due to PubCo’s status as an emerging growth company.

Risks Related to Cetus Capital and the Business Combination

| ● | Cetus Capital will be forced to liquidate the Trust Account if it cannot consummate the Business Combination or an initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period. In the event of a liquidation, Cetus Capital’s public stockholders are expected to receive approximately $10.79 per share, based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024.

| ● | You must tender your shares of Cetus Common Stock in order to validly seek redemption at the Special Meeting.
| ● | The Business Combination may not close if there are insufficient funds remaining in the Trust Account or from external sources to satisfy all validly tendered redemptions.

| ● | If the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented, the ability of the Public Stockholders to redeem their shares for cash could cause the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital to be less than $5,000,001, which would prevent Cetus Capital from consummating the Business Combination.
| ● | If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, and the Public Shares are redeemed in an amount in excess of the current redemption limitation and Cetus Capital’s securities do not meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist Cetus Capital’s securities from trading on its exchange.
| ● | If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, PubCo’s failure to meet the initial listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in an inability to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares and the PubCo Warrants on Nasdaq and the obligation to comply with the “penny stock” rules and could affect PubCo’s cash position following the Business Combination.
| ● | The Combined Company’s operating and financial results projections relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses performed by Cetus Capital and MKD. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, the Combined Company’s actual operating results may be materially different from forecasted results.
| ● | Cetus Capital has incurred and expects to incur significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is consummated, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by the Combined Company if the Business Combination is consummated or by Cetus Capital if the Business Combination is not consummated.
| ● | ARC Group, the financial advisor to Cetus Capital in connection with the Business Combination, has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included herein with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination. You are cautioned not to place any reliance on the fact that ARC Group has been previously involved with the Business Combination.

Risks Related to the Business of MKD

| ● | A decline in automotive sales could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to successfully achieve MKD’s business goals.

| ● | MKD’s projected development goals and business expansion plans may not be achieved in the time frames expected due to unforeseen factors.

| ● | The automotive market is highly competitive, and MKD may not be successful in competing in this industry.

| ● | MKD is dependent on suppliers. Timely delivery of orders is needed to meet the requirements of MKD’s customers, and a shortage of materials or components can disrupt the production of MKD’s equipment.

| ● | Natural resource scarcity may cause delays in the development and manufacturing of MKD’s products.

| ● | The automotive industry and its technology are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes which could adversely affect the demand for MKD’s technology or increase MKD’s operating costs.

| ● | The discontinuation of, the loss of business with respect to or a lack of commercial success of a particular vehicle model for which MKD is a significant supplier could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult for us to continue to grow and achieve MKD’s business goals.

| ● | Adverse developments affecting one or more of MKD’s major suppliers could harm MKD’s profitability.

| ● | A significant product liability lawsuit, warranty claim or product recall involving MKD or one of MKD’s major customers could harm MKD’s profitability.

| ● | MKD is involved from time to time in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes, which could have an adverse impact on MKD’s profitability and consolidated financial position.

| ● | Downturns or volatility in general economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on MKD’s business and results of operations.

| ● | Delays in initiation of production, implementing new production techniques or resolving problems associated with technical equipment malfunctions could adversely affect MKD’s manufacturing efficiencies.

| ● | We are and will continue to be under continuous pressure from MKD’s customers and competitors to reduce the price of MKD’s products, which could adversely affect MKD’s growth and profit margins.

| ● | New technologies could result in the development of new products by MKD’s competitors and a decrease in demand for MKD’s products, and MKD may not be able to develop new products to satisfy changes in demand, which could result in a decrease in net sales and loss of market share.

| ● | MKD may be subject to claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights or demands that MKD license third-party technology, which could result in significant expense and reduction in MKD’s intellectual property rights.

| ● | MKD may fail to attract or retain the qualified technical, sales, marketing and management personnel required to operate its business successfully.

| ● | MKD is subject to foreign currency risk as a result of its operations.

| ● | Disruptions in the supply of raw materials and other supplies that MKD and MKD’s customers use in MKD’s products may adversely affect MKD’s profitability.

| ● | MKD’s business is impacted by general economic conditions in its markets, and ongoing economic and financial uncertainties may cause a decline in consumer spending that may adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

| ● | The nature of MKD’s business which is tied to demand for camper vans could result in operating losses during downturns.
| ● | Failure to protect personal or confidential information against cybersecurity breaches could subject MKD to significant reputational, financial and legal consequences and substantially harm its business and results of operations.

23

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

| ● | The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities.
| ● | Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions, or policies could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business and operations.

| ● | MKD is subject to PRC laws and regulations which may change in the future. Given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Any non-compliance with applicable PRC laws and regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

| ● | PubCo’s securities may be prohibited from trading in the United States under the HFCAA in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely MKD’s auditor.

| ● | MKD may be required to obtain additional licenses in relation to MKD’s ongoing business operations and may be subject to penalties for failing to obtain certain licenses with respect to MKD’s past operations.

| ● | MKD may be required to complete filing procedures with the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) in connection with this Business Combination. In addition, the approval of and filing with the CSRC or other PRC government authorities may be required in connection with the transaction under PRC law, and, if required, it is uncertain whether such approval can be obtained or filing completed or how long it will take to obtain such approval or complete such filing.

| ● | It is unclear whether we will be considered a PRC “resident enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and, depending on the determination of MKD’s PRC “resident enterprise” status, MKD’s global income may be subject to the 25% PRC enterprise income tax, which could materially and adversely affect MKD’s results of operations.
| ● | PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds from the Business Combination to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries in China, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.
| ● | Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our income effectively and affect the value of your investment.

| ● | Failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans as required by PRC regulations may subject MKD to penalties.
| ● | You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against us or our management named in the prospectus based on China laws.

| ● | It may be difficult for overseas regulators to conduct investigation or collect evidence.

| ● | Any failure to comply with PRC regulations regarding the registration requirements for employee stock incentive plans may subject the relevant PRC plan participants or us to fines and other legal and administrative sanctions.

| ● | If MKD fails to obtain and maintain the requisite licenses and approvals required under the regulatory environment applicable to MKD’s businesses in the PRC, or if MKD is required to take actions that are time-consuming or costly, MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Taiwan

| ● | Any lack of requisite approvals, licenses, permits or filings or failure to comply with any requirements of Taiwan laws, regulations and policies may materially and adversely affect MKD’s daily operations.

| ● | Cross-Straits relationship imposes macroeconomic risks which could negatively affect MKD’s business.

| ● | MKD is subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments, which may restrict PubCo’s ability to satisfy the liquidity requirements.

| ● | MKD’s Taiwan entity is subject to foreign exchange control imposed by Taiwan authorities, which may affect the paying dividends, repatriating the interest or making other payments to us.

| ● | We may be required to obtain approvals from Taiwan authority for investment in MKD’s Taiwan subsidiary if the shareholding of MKD at the time of or after the Proposed Transaction reaches the threshold for such approval.

| ● | MKD’s Taiwan subsidiary bears product liabilities for damages caused by MKD’s products under Taiwan regulations on consumer protection.

| ● | MKD Taiwan’s insurance coverage may not adequately protect MKD Taiwan and its subsidiary against certain operating and other hazards which may have an adverse effect on their business.
| ● | You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against MKD’s group entities or management in Taiwan.

SELECTED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following table sets forth summary historical comparative share information for Cetus Capital and MKD BVI, respectively, and unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share financial information after giving effect to the Business Combination and other events contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement presented under three scenarios:

| ● | Scenario 1 — Assuming No Redemptions into Cash, except for the 3,691,066 Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting: No Cetus Capital Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights after January 31, 2024 with respect to their Public Shares, all Cetus Capital Public Shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to $20.93 million would be transferred to permanent equity;

| ● | Scenario 2 — Assuming the Redemption of 1,029,467 Public Shares into Cash, in addition to the 3,691,066 Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting: 50% of Cetus Capital’s Public Shares amounting to 1,029,467 shares are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital shareholders, $10.68 million would be paid out in cash. The remaining 50% of the Cetus Capital Public Shares, 1,029,467 shares, previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to $10.68 million would be transferred to permanent equity; and

| ● | Scenario 3 — Assuming the Redemption of 1,409,540 Public Shares into Cash (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved): 1,409,540 Public Shares represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, $14.63 million would be paid out in cash, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).
| ● | Scenario 4 — Assuming 100% of the Public Shares are Redeemed into Cash (and approval and implementation of the NTA Amendment Proposal): The maximum number amounting to 2,058,934 Public Shares are redeemed for cash by Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, under which scenario the Combined Company would have insufficient cash resources after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, $21.37 million would be paid out in cash, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).

The scenarios above do not include a total of 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares that may be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the terms of the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. Such 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares constitute approximately 1.2% of the 17,246,248 outstanding PubCo shares immediately after Closing of the Business Combination under the maximum redemption outcome in Scenario 4 above.

In accordance with the Existing Charter, in the event that the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting and payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, are less than $5,000,001 upon consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital will not complete the Business Combination or redeem any Public Shares, and all Public Shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof. However, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, the foregoing limitation regarding redemptions would not apply, in which case Cetus Capital would be able to complete the Business Combination and redeem its Public Shares even if the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital were less than $5,000,001.

This information is only a summary and be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Cetus Capital and MKD BVI and related notes that are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share information of Cetus Capital and MKD BVI is derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Under different redemption level scenarios, the Combined Company may need to raise additional funding from external sources to satisfy all expenses upon which the Closing of the Business Combination is contingent.

Risks Related to the Business of MKD

In addition to the other information included in this registration statement, the considerations listed below could have a material adverse effect on MKD Taiwan’s business, financial condition or results of operations, cash flows, or ability to pay dividends, future prospects, or financial performance. The risks set forth below comprise all material risks currently known to MKD Taiwan. These factors should be considered carefully, together with the information and financial data set forth in this Registration Statement.

Risks Related to the Business of MKD

A decline in automotive sales could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to successfully achieve MKD’s business goals.

Demand for MKD’s products is directly related to automotive vehicle production and demand. Automotive sales and production can be affected by general economic or industry conditions, labor relations issues, regulatory requirements, trade agreements and other factors. Numerous factors beyond MKD’s control could lead to a decline in automotive production. Automotive industry conditions around the world have been challenging. Any further decline in automotive production levels, particularly with respect to models for which MKD is a significant supplier, could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to achieve MKD’s business goals.

MKD’s projected development goals and business expansion plans may not be achieved in the time frames expected due to unforeseen factors.

MKD’s production projections, sales volume, and cost models are only estimates. All such projections and timeline estimations may change as MKD continues in the development and scaling of its products.

Cost overruns, scheduling delays, and failure to meet product performance goals may be caused by, but not limited to, unidentified technical hurdles, delays in material shipments, and regulatory hurdles. MKD may experience delays in the design and manufacturing of products. MKD may experience significant delays in bringing its products to market due to design considerations, technical challenges, material availability, manufacturing complications, and regulatory considerations. Such delays could materially damage MKD’s brand, business, financial goals, operation results, and product development and delivery.

In addition, as set out in “MKD’s Business — Future Camper Van Operations,” part of the business plan of MKD includes expanding its operations into the area of scenic area camping ground operations in Mainland China, and offering associated sales and management services for camper vans. Such business has not yet commenced as of the date hereof, and there is no certainty that such plans can be realized in the near future or at all. The progress and success of such expansion plans will depend on a wide variety of factors beyond MKD’s control, including China’s economic status and recovery, the policies and regulations affecting such business operations in China, the availability of capital to support such investments by MKD, and the availability of manpower and expertise to undertake such expansion plans.

28

The automotive market is highly competitive, and MKD may not be successful in competing in this industry.

The automobile industry is highly competitive, and MKD will be competing for sales with both electric vehicle manufacturers and traditional automotive companies, including those who have announced consumer and commercial vehicles that may contain products which could be directly competitive to MKD. Many of MKD’s current and potential competitors may have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, or other resources than MKD and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale, and support of their products than MKD.

Factors affecting competition include product performance and quality, technological innovation, customer experience, brand differentiation, product design, pricing and total cost of ownership, and manufacturing scale and efficiency. Increased competition may lead to lower unit sales and increased inventory, which may result in downward price pressure and adversely affect MKD’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

MKD is dependent on suppliers. Timely delivery of orders is needed to meet the requirements of MKD’s customers, and a shortage of materials or components can disrupt the production of MKD’s equipment.

As a manufacturer, MKD will be subject to the same vagaries as the rest of the automotive industry. There were significant disruptions to capacity and reallocations of supply capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, microprocessor manufacturers were already seeing increasing demand and that demand has further increased based on labor shortages and the need for greater automation. A shortage of microprocessors or other materials or components can cause a significant disruption to MKD’s production schedule and have a substantial adverse effect on MKD’s financial condition or results of operations. Given MKD’s weaker relative bargaining power, there is a real risk that MKD will experience significant difficulties in obtaining supplies of materials for production. If this occurs, MKD may experience significant production delays and will not meet MKD’s production goals. Lack of production will have a direct impact on sales and would likely cause us to miss MKD’s earnings estimates.

Natural resource scarcity may cause delays in the development and manufacturing of MKD’s products.

Recent global political and economic tensions could contribute to natural resource scarcity. For example, Russia is a major exporter of natural resources. With the imposition of economic sanctions and import restrictions, there will be a loss of supply in global markets. Restricted supply is likely to result in upward price pressures. The automotive industry is subject to similar natural resource unpredictability in other countries. As such, MKD’s pricing and profitability models may need to be adjusted in reaction to these outside pressures.

The automotive industry and its technology are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes which could adversely affect the demand for MKD’s technology or increase MKD’s operating costs.

MKD may be unable to keep up with changes in vehicle technology and, as a result, MKD’s competitiveness may suffer. Developments in technologies, such as vehicle control systems, fatigue identification systems, wireless charging, among other technologies, may materially and adversely affect MKD’s business and prospects in ways not currently anticipated. Existing and other technologies may emerge as customers’ preferred alternative to MKD’s products. Any failure by MKD to develop new or enhanced technologies or processes, or to react to changes in existing technologies, could materially delay MKD’s development and introduction of new and enhanced technologies, which could result in the loss of competitiveness of MKD’s technologies, decreased revenue, and a loss of market share to competitors. MKD’s research and development efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in vehicle technologies. MKD’s vehicle technologies may not compete effectively with others in the industry if it is not able to source and integrate the latest technology into MKD’s products. Additionally, the introduction and integration of new technologies into MKD’s products may increase MKD’s costs and capital expenditures required for the production and manufacture of technologies and, if MKD is unable to cost efficiently implement such technologies or adjust MKD’s manufacturing operations, MKD’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows would be materially and adversely affected.

29

The discontinuation of, the loss of business with respect to or a lack of commercial success of a particular vehicle model for which MKD is a significant supplier could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult for us to continue to grow and achieve MKD’s business goals.

The discontinuation of, the loss of business with respect to or a lack of commercial success of a particular vehicle model for which MKD is a significant supplier could reduce MKD’s sales and harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to grow MKD’s business and achieve MKD’s business goals.

Adverse developments affecting one or more of MKD’s major suppliers could harm MKD’s profitability.

MKD obtains components and other products and services from numerous suppliers and other vendors. In certain instances, it would be difficult and expensive for MKD to change suppliers of products and services that are critical to MKD’s business. Certain of MKD’s suppliers may become financially distressed. Any significant disruption in MKD’s supplier relationships, including certain relationships with sole-source suppliers, could harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to grow and achieve MKD’s business goals.

A significant product liability lawsuit, warranty claim or product recall involving MKD or one of MKD’s major customers could harm MKD’s profitability.

In the event that MKD’s products fail to perform as expected and such failure results in, or is alleged to result in, bodily injury and/or property damage or other losses, MKD may be subject to product liability lawsuits and other claims. These customers may seek contribution or indemnification from MKD for all or a portion of the costs associated with product liability and warranty claims, recalls or other corrective actions involving MKD’s products. These types of claims could significantly harm MKD’s profitability, thereby making it more difficult to grow MKD’s business and achieve MKD’s goals.

MKD is involved from time to time in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes, which could have an adverse impact on MKD’s profitability and consolidated financial position.

MKD is involved in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes that, from time to time, are significant. These are typically claims that arise in the normal course of business including, without limitation, commercial or contractual disputes, including disputes with MKD’s suppliers, intellectual property matters, personal injury claims and employment matters. No assurances can be given that such proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on MKD’s profitability and consolidated financial position.

Downturns or volatility in general economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on MKD’s business and results of operations.

In recent years, worldwide semiconductor industry sales have tracked the impact of the financial crisis, subsequent recovery and persistent economic uncertainty. Volatile and/or uncertain economic conditions, including inflation and interest rate fluctuations, can adversely impact sales and profitability and make it difficult to plan MKD’s future business activities. The rapid spread of COVID-19 in China dampened growth in 2022, but the gradual recovery from the pandemic and China’s reopening may pave the way for a gradual recovery. China’s annual GDP in 2023 is projected to grow at 5.2% at the beginning of 2023, according to the World Economic Outlook (January 2023) published by International Monetary Fund, However, China’s recovery is slow, in part as a result of unresolved real estate problems, with negative cross-border spillovers. The actual GDP growth rate in the first quarter of 2023 was approximately 4.5%, according to the National Bureau of Statistics of China. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate hiking from 4.65% to 5.33% between March 2023 and September 2023, the slowdown in the Chinese economy, and youth unemployment rate increasing from 17.3% in January 2023 to 21.3% in June 2023 have all contributed to negatively affect the macroeconomic environment in which MKD operates. MKD’s management believes that such macro-economic trends have contributed to the slowdown in demand for its products and the financial underperformance of MKD in 2023.

To the extent MKD incorrectly plans for favorable economic conditions that do not materialize or take longer to materialize than expected, MKD may face oversupply of its products relative to customer demand. Reduced customer spending may in the future drive MKD and MKD’s competitors, to reduce product pricing, which will result in a negative effect on gross profit. Moreover, volatility in revenue as a result of unpredictable economic conditions may alter MKD’s anticipated working capital needs and interfere with MKD’s short-term and long-term strategies. To the extent that MKD’s sales, profitability and strategies are negatively affected by downturns or volatility in general economic conditions, MKD’s business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Delays in initiation of production, implementing new production techniques or resolving problems associated with technical equipment malfunctions could adversely affect MKD’s manufacturing efficiencies.

MKD’s manufacturing efficiency has been and will be an important factor in MKD’s future profitability. MKD’s manufacturing and testing processes are complex, require advanced and costly equipment and are continually being modified in MKD’s efforts to improve yields and product performance. Difficulties in the manufacturing process can lower yields. Technical or other problems could lead to production delays, order cancellations and lost revenue. In addition, any problems in achieving acceptable yields, construction delays, or other problems in upgrading or expanding existing facilities, building new facilities, problems in bringing other new manufacturing capacity to full production or changing MKD’s process technologies, could also result in capacity constraints, production delays and a loss of future revenues and customers. MKD’s operating results also could be adversely affected by any increase in fixed costs and operating expenses related to increases in production capacity if net sales do not increase proportionately, or in the event of a decline in demand for MKD’s products.

30

MKD’s facilities are located in Taiwan and mainland China. Any disruption of operations at these facilities could have a material adverse effect on MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are and will continue to be under continuous pressure from MKD’s customers and competitors to reduce the price of MKD’s products, which could adversely affect MKD’s growth and profit margins.

Prices for MKD’s products tend to decrease over their life cycle. There is substantial and continuing pressure from customers to reduce the total cost of purchasing MKD’s products. To remain competitive and retain MKD’s customers and gain new ones, MKD must continue to reduce costs through product and manufacturing improvements. It must also strive to minimize customers’ shipping and inventory financing costs and to meet their other goals for rationalization of supply and production. MKD’s growth and the profit margins of MKD’s products will suffer if it cannot effectively continue to reduce costs and keep MKD’s product prices competitive.

New technologies could result in the development of new products by MKD’s competitors and a decrease in demand for MKD’s products, and MKD may not be able to develop new products to satisfy changes in demand, which could result in a decrease in net sales and loss of market share.

MKD’s product range and new product development program is focused on vehicle electronics and camper products. MKD’s failure to develop new technologies, or anticipate or react to changes in existing technologies, either within or outside of the vehicle and camper markets, could materially delay development of new products, which could result in a decrease in MKD’s net sales and a loss of market share to MKD’s competitors. The automotive industry is characterized by rapidly changing technologies and industry standards, together with frequent new product introductions. This includes the development of new types of technology or the improvement of existing technologies. MKD’s financial performance depends on MKD’s ability to design, develop, manufacture, assemble, test, market and support new products and product enhancements on a timely and cost-effective basis. New products often command higher prices and, as a result, higher profit margins. MKD may not successfully identify new product opportunities or develop and bring new products to market or succeed in selling them into new customer applications in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Products or technologies developed by other companies may render MKD’s products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive and, since MKD creates products primarily for the vehicle electronics and camper products industries, this may have a greater effect on MKD than it would if it were a broader manufacturer with a wider range of product types and technologies. Many of MKD’s competitors are larger and more established international companies with greater engineering and research and development resources than MKD. MKD’s failure to identify or capitalize on any fundamental shifts in technologies in MKD’s product markets, relative to MKD’s competitors, could harm MKD’s business, have a material adverse effect on MKD’s competitive position within MKD’s industry and harm MKD’s relationships with MKD’s customers. In addition, to remain competitive, MKD must continue to innovate, improve manufacturing yields and expand MKD’s sales. MKD may not be able to accomplish these goals, which could harm MKD’s business.

31

MKD may be subject to claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights or demands that MKD license third-party technology, which could result in significant expense and reduction in MKD’s intellectual property rights.

The industries MKD serves are characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights. From time to time, third parties may assert, patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are important to MKD’s business and have demanded, and may in the future demand, that MKD license its patents and technology. Any litigation to determine the validity of allegations that MKD’s products infringe or may infringe these rights, including claims arising through MKD’s contractual indemnification of MKD’s customers, or claims challenging the validity of MKD’s patents, regardless of its merit or resolution, could be costly and divert the efforts and attention of MKD’s management and technical personnel. MKD may not prevail in litigation given the complex technical issues and inherent uncertainties in intellectual property litigation. If litigation results in an adverse ruling, MKD could be required to:

| ● | pay substantial damages for past, present and future use of the infringing technology;
| ● | cease the manufacture, use or sale of infringing products;
| ● | discontinue the use of infringing technology;
| ● | expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology;
| ● | pay substantial damages to MKD’s customers or end-users to discontinue use or replace infringing technology with noninfringing technology;
| ● | license technology from the third party claiming infringement, which license may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all; or
| ● | relinquish intellectual property rights associated with one or more of MKD’s patent claims, if such claims are held invalid or otherwise unenforceable.

MKD may fail to attract or retain the qualified technical, sales, marketing and management personnel required to operate its business successfully.

MKD’s future success depends, in part, upon MKD’s ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales, marketing and managerial personnel. Personnel with the necessary expertise are scarce and competition for personnel with these skills is intense. MKD may not be able to retain existing key technical, sales, marketing and managerial employees or be successful in attracting, assimilating or retaining other highly qualified technical, sales, marketing and managerial personnel in the future. If MKD is unable to retain existing key employees or are unsuccessful in attracting new highly qualified employees, MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

MKD’s business may be adversely affected by obsolete inventories as a result of changes in demand for MKD’s products and change in life cycles of MKD’s products.

The life cycles of some of MKD’s products depend heavily upon the life cycles of the end products into which devices are designed. These types of end-market products with short life cycles require MKD to manage closely its production and inventory levels. Inventory may also become obsolete because of adverse changes in end-market demand. MKD may in the future be adversely affected by obsolete or excess inventories which may result from unanticipated changes in the estimated total demand for MKD’s products or the estimated life cycles of the end products into which MKD’s products are designed. In addition, some customers restrict how far back the date of manufacture for MKD’s products can be, and therefore some of MKD’s products inventory may become obsolete, and thus, adversely affect MKD’s results of operations.

MKD is subject to foreign currency risk as a result of its operations.

MKD face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily to the New Taiwan Dollar and the Renminbi. MKD’s foreign currency risk may change over time as the level of activity in foreign markets grows and could have an adverse impact upon MKD’s financial results. MKD does not usually employ hedging techniques designed to mitigate foreign currency exposures and, therefore, it could experience currency losses as these currencies fluctuate against other currencies.

Disruptions in the supply of raw materials and other supplies that MKD and MKD’s customers use in MKD’s products may adversely affect MKD’s profitability.

MKD and MKD’s customers use a broad range of materials and supplies. A significant disruption in the supply of these materials for any reason could decrease MKD’s production and shipping levels, which could materially increase MKD’s operating costs and materially decrease MKD’s profit margins.

MKD and other component manufacturers in the automotive industry may ship products to customers’ vehicle assembly plants so they are delivered on a “just-in-time” basis in order to maintain low inventory levels. However, this “just-in-time” method makes the logistics supply chain in MKD’s industry very complex and very vulnerable to disruptions.

32

Such disruptions could be caused by any one of a myriad of potential problems, such as closures of one of MKD’s or MKD’s suppliers’ plants or critical manufacturing lines due to strikes, mechanical breakdowns or failures, electrical outages, fires, explosions or political upheaval, as well as logistical complications due to weather, global climate change, volcanic eruptions, or other natural disasters, delayed customs processing, the spread of an infectious disease, virus or other widespread illness and more. The lack of any single subcomponent necessary to manufacture one of MKD’s products could force us to cease production, potentially for a prolonged period. Similarly, a potential quality issue could force MKD to halt deliveries. Even where products are ready to be shipped, or have been shipped, delays may arise before they reach MKD’s customer. MKD’s customers may halt or delay their production for the same reason if one of their other suppliers fails to deliver necessary components. This may cause MKD’s customers, in turn to suspend their orders, or instruct MKD to suspend delivery, of MKD’s products, which may adversely affect MKD’s financial performance.

Additionally, if MKD is the cause for a customer being forced to halt production, the customer may seek to recoup all of its losses and expenses from us. These losses and expenses could be significant and may include consequential losses such as lost profits. Any supply-chain disruption, however small, could potentially cause the complete shutdown of an assembly line of one of MKD’s customers, and any such shutdown that is due to causes that are within MKD’s control could expose us to material claims of compensation. Where a customer halts production because of another supplier failing to deliver on time, it is unlikely MKD will be fully compensated, if at all.

Due to various factors that are beyond MKD’s control, there are currently global supply chain disruptions, including a worldwide semiconductor supply shortage. The semiconductor supply shortage, due in part to increased demand across multiple industries, is impacting production in automotive and other industries. However, there has been limited impact of such worldwide shortages on MKD’s operations, because MKD’s products incorporate components for which there are two or more substitutes, and multiple product lines have interchangeable components, and hence such disruptions have had minimal impact on MKD.

MKD’s business is impacted by general economic conditions in its markets, and ongoing economic and financial uncertainties may cause a decline in consumer spending that may adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

MKD depends on consumer discretionary spending and, accordingly, MKD may be adversely affected if customers reduce, delay or forego their purchases of the Company’s direct or indirect products as a result of, including but not limited to, job loss, bankruptcy, higher consumer debt and interest rates, reduced access to credit, higher energy and fuel costs, relative or perceived cost, availability and comfort of camper vans use versus other modes of travel, such as air travel and rail (including as a result of consumer tastes in response to climate change), falling home prices, lower consumer confidence, uncertain or changes or uncertainty in tax policies, uncertainty due to national or international security or health concerns, volatility in the stock market, or epidemics.

In particular, China’s recovery from the Covid pandemic has been slow, in part as a result of unresolved real estate problems and associated debt restructuring. The actual GDP growth rate in the first quarter of 2023 was approximately 4.5%, according to the National Bureau of Statistics of China. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate hiking from 4.65% to 5.33% between March 2023 and September 2023, the slowdown in the Chinese economy, and youth unemployment rate increasing from 17.3% in January 2023 to 21.3% in June 2023 have all contributed to negatively affect the macroeconomic environment in which MKD operates. MKD’s management believes that such macro-economic trends have contributed to the slowdown in demand for its products in China and the financial underperformance of MKD in 2023.

Decreases in the number of customers, average spend per customer, or retention and renewal rates for the Company’s products would negatively affect the Company’s financial performance. A prolonged period of depressed consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on MKD’s business. In addition, adverse economic conditions may result in an increase in the MKD’s operating expenses due to, among other things, higher costs of labor, energy, equipment and facilities. Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on the MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The nature of MKD’s business which is tied to demand for camper vans could result in operating losses during downturns.

The RV and camper van industry is cyclical and is influenced by many national and regional economic and demographic factors, including: (a) the terms and availability of financing for retailers and consumers; (b) overall consumer confidence and the level of discretionary consumer spending; (c) population and employment trends; and (d) income levels and general economic conditions, such as inflation, including as a result of tariffs, deflation, increasing interest rates and recessions. As a result of these factors, MKD’s sales and results of operations may fluctuate in the future.

Failure to protect personal or confidential information against cybersecurity breaches could subject MKD to significant reputational, financial and legal consequences and substantially harm its business and results of operations.

Ensuring the safeguarding of customer, employee, supplier, working partners, and other personal data is important for MKD’s business. A substantial breach in any of these areas could draw significant media attention, harm relationships with consumers, tarnish MKD’s reputation, and result in financial losses, fines, or legal actions. Non-compliance with relevant cybersecurity and personal data and privacy laws and regulations may expose us to civil or regulatory liabilities and challenges, potentially leading to significant legal, financial, and operational consequences.

Although MKD is not a retail consumer-facing business, certain aspects of MKD’s operations rely on the secure transmission of confidential information over networks. Despite deploying a layered approach to address information security threats, a compromise in MKD’s data security systems or those of MKD’s business partners could result in unauthorized access, damage, or misuse of confidential information. Such incidents could damage MKD’s reputation and subject MKD to regulatory actions and consumer claims, adversely affecting MKD’s business, financial position, and operational results. Addressing a security breach may also necessitate substantial additional resources related to information system security, causing disruptions to MKD’s business.

MKD has adopted security policies and measures largely in line with industry norms to protect proprietary data and consumer information, and MKD’s senior management and directors (including Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Ms. Min-Jie Cui, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang and Mr. Chih-Hsiang Tang) oversee the strategic processes in place to safeguard data and comply with relevant regulations and has overall responsibility for evaluating cybersecurity risks, as well as related policies and risks in connection with the company’s supply chain/suppliers/service providers. Prior to the Business Combination, MKD is a business with operations in Mainland China and Taiwan and is not subject to the laws and regulations of the U.S., especially with regards to cybersecurity risks, and MKD’s senior management and directors have limited experience with the compliance requirements of publicly traded companies in the U.S.

Following the Business Combination and its listing on Nasdaq, PubCo will be subject to all applicable U.S. law and regulation and the listing rules of Nasdaq. In particular, PubCo will be required to promptly and publicly disclose material cybersecurity incidents in reports on Form 6-K, and will be required to disclose in its annual report on Form 20-F its processes for assessing, identifying, and managing risks from cybersecurity threats, whether risks from cybersecurity threats have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect PubCo, and to describe the role of its board and management in overseeing and managing cybersecurity risks.

Taking into account the size and scale of MKD following the Business Combination, PubCo’s board composition, the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders involved, as well as the business costs and expenses, there is no present intention to establish a board subcommittee to oversee cybersecurity risks, but it is intended for the entire board of PubCo to be collectively responsible in overseeing cybersecurity risks, including in connection with MKD’s supply chain, suppliers and service providers. In particular, given their positions as executive directors and their experience in the automotive electronics industry in Mainland China and Taiwan, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang and Mr. Ming-Chao Huang will take central leadership roles in overseeing cybersecurity risks. This will entail employee training, monitoring counterparty compliance with legal and contractual obligations, and review of contractual stipulations and working arrangements with counterparties, such as supply chain participants, suppliers and service providers, to ensure that risks arising from cybersecurity incidents and regulations can be properly managed.

Nevertheless, advances in technology, the expertise of hackers, improper use or sharing of data, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments could result in a compromise or breach of the technology that it uses to protect confidential information. MKD’s security measures may be undermined due to the actions of outside parties, employee error, malfeasance, or otherwise, and, as a result, an unauthorized party may obtain access to data systems and misappropriate business and personal information. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and may not immediately produce signs of intrusion, MKD may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to reputation, and potentially have an adverse effect on MKD’s business.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities.

The PRC government has oversight over business operations conducted in China, and the PRC government may influence MKD’s operations, which could result in a material adverse change in MKD’s operation and the value of the securities. MKD conducts a substantial portion of its business through its PRC subsidiaries. Our operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. The PRC government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business, and it may influence our operations, which could result in a material adverse change in our operations, and our securities may decline in value or become worthless. In addition, implementation of industry-wide regulations directly targeting our operations could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline. Therefore, investors of our company and our business face potential uncertainty from actions taken by the PRC government affecting our business.

Also, the PRC government has recently indicated that it may exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas by or foreign investment in China-based issuers. For example, on November 14, 2021, the CAC released the Administrative Regulation on Network Data Security for public comments through December 13, 2021, or the Draft Administrative Regulation on Network Data Security, for public comments, which stipulates, among others, that a prior cybersecurity review is required for the overseas listing of data processors who process over one million users’ personal information, and the overseas listing of data processors which affects or may affect national security. On December 28, 2021, the Chinese government promulgated the 2022 Cybersecurity Review Measures, which came into effect on February 15, 2022. According to the 2022 Cybersecurity Review Measures, (i) critical information infrastructure operators that purchase network products and services and internet platform operators that conduct data processing activities shall be subject to cybersecurity review in accordance with the 2022 Cybersecurity Review Measures if such activities affect or may affect national security; and (ii) internet platform operators holding personal information of more than one million users and seeking to have their securities listed on a stock exchange in a foreign country are required to file for cybersecurity review with the Cybersecurity Review Office.

Given the nature of MKD’s business, wherein its customers are largely comprised of automobile manufacturers, MKD does not have access to large volumes of personal data of individuals. As advised by MKD’s PRC legal counsel, Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD believes it will not be subject to cybersecurity review with the Cyberspace Administration of China, or the “CAC,” after the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (the “Cybersecurity Review Measures”) became effective on February 15, 2022, considering that (i) it currently do not have personal information of more than one million people and does not anticipate that it will be collecting over one million people’s personal information in the foreseeable future, (ii) it has not been identified as a “critical information infrastructure operator” by any government authorities, and (iii) it has not received any notification of cybersecurity review from relevant governmental authorities due to any impact or potential impact on national security.

As the 2022 Cybersecurity Review Measures and the Opinions are recently promulgated, its interpretation and implementation shall be determined in accordance with the laws and regulations in force at the time. As a result, we may be required to obtain regulatory approvals from and complete additional procedures with the CAC or other PRC governmental authorities for the transaction. In addition, if the CAC or other regulatory agencies subsequently promulgate new rules or regulations that require us to obtain additional approvals or complete additional procedures for the transaction, or for MKD’s listing or offering overseas, such approvals may not be obtained and such procedures may not be completed in a timely manner or at all. Any such circumstance may limit MKD’s ability to offer or continue to offer securities. In addition, implementation of industry-wide regulations directly targeting MKD’s operations could cause the value of the securities to significantly decline. Therefore, investors of the securities face potential uncertainty from actions taken by the PRC government affecting MKD’s business.

Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions, or policies could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business and operations.

A large portion of MKD’s assets and operations are located in China. Accordingly, MKD’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic, and social conditions in China generally and by continued yet slowing economic growth in China as a whole.

The Chinese economy differs from economies of other developed countries in many respects, including the degree of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China are still owned or controlled by the government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The Chinese government has significant authority to exert influence on the ability of a China-based company, such as MKD, to conduct its business. Therefore, investors of our company and our business face potential uncertainty from the PRC government. The PRC government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth by allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy, and the rate of growth has been slowing down in recent years. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the PRC government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could lead to reduction in demand for MKD’s services and products and adversely affect MKD’s competitive position, and could adversely affect MKD’s business and operating results. The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may have a negative effect on us.

34

MKD is subject to PRC laws and regulations which may change in the future. Given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Any non-compliance with applicable PRC laws and regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

MKD conducts a major part of its business through a manufacturing facility and sales in China. Operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions under the civil law system may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. The PRC laws, rules and regulations may evolve in the future, and any non-compliance with any existing or new laws and regulations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

From time to time, MKD may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce MKD’s legal rights. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have some discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings. These uncertainties may impede MKD’s ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into and could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business and results of operations.

The enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice. The PRC government has significant oversight over the conduct of MKD’s business and it has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight over offerings that are conducted overseas, including listings on a U.S. stock exchange and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers. Any such action could result in a material change in MKD’s operations and/or the value of PubCo’s or MKD’s securities and may limit PubCo’s or MKD’s ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

PubCo’s securities may be prohibited from trading in the United States under the HFCAA in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely MKD’s auditor.

Pursuant to the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCAA”), if the SEC determines that PubCo has filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that has not been subject to inspections by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, the SEC will prohibit PubCo’s securities from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report to notify the SEC of its determination that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and the auditor that issued the audit reports included in the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 was subject to that determination. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB removed mainland China and Hong Kong from the list of jurisdictions where it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms.

PubCo’s consolidated financial statements are currently audited by Marcum Asia CPAs LLP, which is registered with and subject to regular inspection by PCAOB. Each year, the PCAOB will determine whether it can inspect and investigate completely audit firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, among other jurisdictions. If the PCAOB determines in the future that it no longer has full access to inspect and investigate completely accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong and PubCo uses an accounting firm headquartered in one of these jurisdictions to issue an audit report on PubCo’s financial statements filed with the SEC, PubCo would be identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer following the filing of the annual report on Form 20-F for the relevant fiscal year. In accordance with the HFCAA, PubCo’s securities would be prohibited from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States if PubCo is identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer for two consecutive years in the future. If PubCo’s shares are prohibited from trading in the United States, there is no certainty that PubCo will be able to list on a non-U.S. exchange or that a market for PubCo’s shares will develop outside of the United States. A prohibition of being able to trade in the United States would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase PubCo’s securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with delisting would have a negative impact on the price of PubCo’s securities. Also, such a prohibition would significantly affect PubCo’s ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, which would have a material adverse impact on PubCo’s business, financial condition, and prospects.

MKD may be required to obtain additional licenses in relation to MKD’s ongoing business operations and may be subject to penalties for failing to obtain certain licenses with respect to MKD’s past operations.

MKD conducts its business in China through sales and MKD’s manufacturing facility, which requires MKD to obtain, and maintain, a business license. As advised by Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD has obtained all requisite licenses, permits and approvals from relevant authorities in the PRC that are material to its operations.

Considering the evolvement of PRC laws, regulations, and rules, MKD may be subject to additional licensing requirements, and MKD’s conclusion on the status of its licensing compliance may prove to be mistaken. If (i) MKD does not receive or maintain any permission or approval required, (ii) MKD inadvertently concluded that certain permissions or approvals have been acquired or are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations thereof change and MKD becomes subject to the requirement of additional permissions or approvals in the future, MKD may have to expend significant time and costs to procure them. If MKD is unable to do so, on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or otherwise, MKD may become subject to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against us, and other forms of sanctions, and MKD’s ability to conduct its business, invest into Mainland China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, or list on a U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and MKD’s business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

MKD may be required to complete filing procedures with the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) in connection with this Business Combination. In addition, the approval of and filing with the CSRC or other PRC government authorities may be required in connection with the transaction under PRC law, and, if required, it is uncertain whether such approval can be obtained or filing completed or how long it will take to obtain such approval or complete such filing.

A significant portion of MKD’s operations are based in China. MKD will be subject to PRC laws relating to, among others, restrictions over foreign investments and data security. The Chinese government has recently sought to exert more control and impose more restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore and such efforts may continue or intensify in the future. The Chinese government’s exertion of more control over overseas listing of, offerings conducted overseas by and/or foreign investment in China-based companies may affect the merger and result in a material change in MKD’s operations, limit PubCo’s abilities to offer or continue to offer securities to foreign investors.

On July 6, 2021, the relevant PRC government authorities issued Opinions on Strictly Cracking Down Illegal Securities Activities in Accordance with the Law. These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies and proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems to deal with the risks and incidents faced by China-based overseas-listed companies.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC published the Overseas Listing Measures which took effect on March 31, 2023. Under the Overseas Listing Measures, a filing-based regulatory system applies to “indirect overseas offerings and listings” of companies in mainland China, which refers to securities offerings and listings in an overseas market made under the name of an offshore entity but based on the underlying equity, assets, earnings or other similar rights of a company in mainland China that operates its main business in mainland China. Therefore, MKD may be required to complete filing procedures with the CSRC in connection with this Business Combination and may be subject to the filing requirements under the Overseas Listing Measures for PubCo’s future offering and listing of PubCo’s securities in an overseas market. MKD has submitted the required filing with the CSRC on September 21, 2023, but has since been informed by CSRC that it is not within the scope of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. As advised by Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD believes that the Business Combination and listing on Nasdaq does not require further review or approval by CSRC. However, there can be no assurance that this interpretation or position taken by CSRC may not change in the future.

36

On December 27, 2021, the NDRC and the Ministry of Commerce (the “MOFCOM”), jointly issued the Special Administrative Measures (Negative List) for Foreign Investment Access (2021 Version), or the 2021 Negative List, which became effective on January 1, 2022. Pursuant to the 2021 Negative List, if a PRC domestic company, which engages in any prohibited business set out in the list, seeks an overseas offering or listing, it must first obtain the approval from the competent governmental authorities. In addition, the foreign investors in such company must not be involved in its operation or management, and their ownership interest should be subject to limitations imposed under regulations on investments in domestic securities by foreign investors.

In addition, there is no assurance that new rules or regulations promulgated in the future will not impose additional requirements on MKD. If it is determined in the future that approval and filing from the CSRC or other regulatory authorities or other procedures, are required, on a retrospective basis, it is uncertain whether such approval can be obtained or filing procedures completed, or how long it will take to obtain such approval or complete such filing procedures. These regulatory authorities may impose fines and penalties on MKD’s operations in China, limit MKD’s abilities to carry out business operations in China or pay dividends outside China, delay or restrict the repatriation of MKD’s offshore funds into China or take other actions that could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, as well as the trading price of PubCo’s securities. The CSRC and other PRC regulatory authorities may also order MKD, or make it advisable for MKD, to unwind or reverse the transactions. In addition, if the CSRC or other regulatory authorities in China subsequently promulgate new rules or issue directives requiring that MKD obtain additional approvals or complete additional filing or other regulatory procedures for MKD’s prior offerings overseas, there is no assurance that we will be able to comply with these requirements and may not be able to obtain any waiver of such requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business, prospects, financial condition, reputation, and the trading price of PubCo’s listed securities.

It is unclear whether we will be considered a PRC “resident enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and, depending on the determination of MKD’s PRC “resident enterprise” status, MKD’s global income may be subject to the 25% PRC enterprise income tax, which could materially and adversely affect MKD’s results of operations.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, which became effective in January 2008 and was amended on February 24, 2017 and December 29, 2018, and its implementation rules, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with a “de facto management body” within China is considered a PRC resident enterprise and will be subject to enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income. The implementation rules of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law define the term “de facto management bodies” as “establishments that carry out substantial and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel, accounting, properties, etc., of an enterprise.” On April 22, 2009, STA issued the Notice Regarding the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Offshore Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprises on the Basis of De Facto Management Bodies, or STA Circular 82, which was partially amended by Announcement on Issues concerning the Determination of Resident Enterprises Based on the Standards of Actual Management Institutions issued by STA on January 29, 2014, and further partially amended by Decision on Issuing the Lists of Invalid and Abolished Tax Departmental Rules and Taxation Normative Documents issued by STA on December 29, 2017. STA Circular 82, as amended, provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a Chinese-controlled offshore-incorporated enterprise is located in China. Further, STA Circular 82 states that certain Chinese-controlled enterprises will be classified as “resident enterprises” if the following are located or resident in China: senior management personnel and departments that are responsible for daily production, operation and management; financial and personnel decision making bodies; key properties, accounting books, company seal, and minutes of board meetings and shareholders’ meetings; and half or more of the senior management or directors having voting rights. In addition, STA issued the Bulletin on Promulgation of the Administrative Measures for Income Tax of Chinese-Controlled Offshore-Incorporated Resident Enterprises (Trial Implementation) on July 27, 2011, effective from September 1, 2011 and partially amended on April 17, 2015, June 28, 2016, and June 15, 2018, or STA Bulletin 45, providing more guidance on the implementation of STA Circular 82. STA Bulletin 45 clarifies matters including resident status determination, post-determination administration and competent tax authorities. Although both STA Circular 82 and STA Bulletin 45 only apply to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the determining criteria set forth in STA Circular 82 and STA Bulletin 45 may reflect STA’s general position on how the “de facto management body” test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of all offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises or individuals. In addition to the uncertainty regarding how the new resident enterprise classification may apply, it is also possible that the rules may change in the future. Although MKD does not believe that MKD’s legal entities organized outside of the PRC constitute PRC resident enterprises, it is possible that the PRC tax authorities could reach a different conclusion. In such case, we may be considered a PRC resident enterprise and may therefore be subject to enterprise income tax at 25% on MKD’s global income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. If MKD is considered a PRC resident enterprise and earn income other than dividends from MKD’s PRC subsidiaries, a 25% enterprise income tax on MKD’s global income could significantly increase MKD’s tax burden and materially and adversely affect MKD’s cash flow and profitability.

37

PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds from the Business Combination to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries in China, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

PubCo is an offshore holding company which following the Business Combination will conduct its operations in China through its PRC subsidiaries. PubCo may make loans to our PRC subsidiaries, it may make additional capital contributions to such PRC subsidiaries, it may establish new PRC subsidiaries and make capital contributions to these new PRC subsidiaries, or it may acquire offshore entities with business operations in China in an offshore transaction. To the extent cash or assets in the business is in mainland China or a mainland China entity, the funds and assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of mainland China due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on the ability of PubCo or its subsidiaries by the PRC government to transfer cash or assets.

Most of these ways are subject to PRC regulations and approvals or registration. For example, loans to our wholly owned PRC subsidiaries to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with the local counterpart of SAFE. If we decide to finance our wholly owned PRC subsidiaries by means of capital contributions, these capital contributions are subject to registration with the SAMR or its local branch, reporting of foreign investment information with the PRC Ministry of Commerce, or registration with other governmental authorities in China. Due to the restrictions imposed on loans in foreign currencies extended to PRC domestic companies, we are not likely to make such loans to our PRC domestic subsidiaries. Further, we are not likely to finance the activities of our PRC domestic subsidiaries by means of capital contributions due to regulatory restrictions relating to foreign investment in PRC domestic enterprises engaged in certain businesses.

SAFE promulgated the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, effective June 2015, in replacement of the Circular on the Relevant Operating Issues Concerning the Improvement of the Administration of the Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, the Notice from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Relevant Issues Concerning Strengthening the Administration of Foreign Exchange Businesses, and the Circular on Further Clarification and Regulation of the Issues Concerning the Administration of Certain Capital Account Foreign Exchange Businesses. According to SAFE Circular 19, the flow and use of the RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company is regulated such that RMB capital may not be used for the issuance of RMB entrusted loans, the repayment of inter-enterprise loans or the repayment of banks loans that have been transferred to a third party. Although SAFE Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise to be used for equity investments within China, it also reiterates the principle that RMB converted from the foreign currency-denominated capital of a foreign-invested company may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope. Thus, it is unclear whether SAFE will permit such capital to be used for equity investments in China in actual practice. SAFE promulgated the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Standardizing the Foreign Exchange Settlement Management Policy of Capital Account, or SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in SAFE Circular 19, but changes the prohibition against using RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company to issue RMB entrusted loans to a prohibition against using such capital to issue loans to non-associated enterprises. Violations of SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties. SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly limit our ability to transfer any foreign currency we hold, including the net proceeds from the Business Combination, to our PRC subsidiary, which may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in China. On October 25, 2019, SAFE promulgated the Notice for Further Advancing the Facilitation of Cross-border Trade and Investment, or SAFE Circular 28, which, among other things, allows all foreign-invested companies to use Renminbi converted from foreign currency-denominated capital for equity investments in China, as long as the equity investment is genuine, does not violate applicable laws, and complies with the negative list on foreign investment. However, since SAFE Circular 28 is newly promulgated, it is unclear how SAFE and competent banks will carry this out in practice.

In light of the various requirements imposed by the PRC regulations on loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, or at all, with respect to future loans to our PRC subsidiaries or future capital contributions by us to our PRC subsidiaries. As a result, uncertainties exist as to our ability to provide prompt financial support to our PRC subsidiaries when needed. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds we expect to receive from the Business Combination and to capitalize or otherwise fund our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our income effectively and affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our income in Renminbi. Under our current corporate structure, our Cayman Islands holding company may rely on dividend payments from our PRC subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements payable outside of China. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval of SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. Specifically, under the existing exchange restrictions, cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiaries in China may be used to pay dividends to our company without prior approval of SAFE. However, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, we need to obtain SAFE approval to use cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiaries to pay any debts they may incur in a currency other than Renminbi owed to entities outside China, or to make other capital expenditure payments outside China in a currency other than Renminbi.

In addition, the PRC government may also at its discretion to restrict our access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If we are prevented from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our foreign currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders, including holders of PubCo securities.

Failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans as required by PRC regulations may subject MKD to penalties.

Companies operating in China are required to participate in various government sponsored employee benefit plans, including certain social insurance, housing funds and other welfare-oriented payment obligations, and contribute to these plans based on the salaries, including bonuses and allowances, of the relevant employees subject to any maximum amount of contribution specified by local authorities. If MKD does not make adequate employee benefit payments, it may be required to make up for the contributions due and to pay late fees and fines.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against us or our management named in the prospectus based on China laws.

PubCo is a company incorporated under the laws of the BVI, but MKD generates substantially all of its revenues from Mainland China and Taiwan and substantially all of its assets are located in Mainland China and Taiwan. In addition, Ms. Min-Jie Cui resides within China for a significant portion of the time and is a PRC national. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside mainland China. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors as none of them currently resides in the U.S. or has substantial assets located in the U.S.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. Mainland PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. Unless certain required conditions are fulfilled, claimants may face difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against us or our management named in the prospectus based on China laws.

It may be difficult for overseas regulators to conduct investigation or collect evidence.

The difficulty of cross-border supervision and administration is a problem in many countries, as well as in China. For example, in China, there may be legal and other obstacles to providing information needed for regulatory investigations or litigation initiated outside China. Although PRC government authorities may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States may not be efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. Furthermore, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, or Article 177, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. While detailed interpretation of or implementation rules under Article 177 have yet to be promulgated, the inability for an overseas securities regulator to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by you in protecting your interests.

Any failure to comply with PRC regulations regarding the registration requirements for employee stock incentive plans may subject the relevant PRC plan participants or us to fines and other legal and administrative sanctions.

Pursuant to the Notice on Issues Concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Stock Incentive Plan of Overseas Publicly Listed Company, issued by SAFE in February 2012, employees, directors, supervisors and other senior management participating in any stock incentive plan of an overseas publicly listed company who are PRC citizens or who are non-PRC citizens residing in China for a continuous period of not less than one year, subject to exceptions, are required to register with SAFE through a domestic qualified agent, which could be a PRC subsidiary of such overseas listed company, and complete certain other procedures. PubCo and MKD’s directors, executive officers and other employees who are PRC citizens or who reside in the PRC for a continuous period of not less than one year and who have been granted restricted shares, restricted share units or options are subject to these regulations. Failure to complete the SAFE registrations may result in fines and legal sanctions and may also limit MKD’s ability to contribute additional capital into MKD’s subsidiaries in China and limit these subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to PubCo. PubCo also faces regulatory uncertainties that could restrict MKD’s ability to adopt additional incentive plans for MKD’s directors and employees under PRC law.

If MKD fails to obtain and maintain the requisite licenses and approvals required under the regulatory environment applicable to MKD’s businesses in the PRC, or if MKD is required to take actions that are time-consuming or costly, MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

MKD’s business operations in the PRC obliges MKD to obtain and maintain applicable licenses and approvals from Chinese regulatory authorities in order to provide MKD’s current services.

MKD’s current business activities are subject to the PRC laws and regulations which may change in the future. While it is believed that MKD’s PRC operations have obtained and maintained all applicable licenses and approvals from the applicable regulatory authorities to provide the current services, it cannot be assured you that MKD will not be found in violation of any law and regulations currently in effect, due to the relevant authorities’ implementation or interpretation of these laws and regulations, or any future laws and regulations. If MKD fails to complete, obtain or maintain any of the required licenses or approvals or make the necessary filings, or otherwise fail to comply with the laws and regulations, MKD may be subject to various penalties, such as the imposition of fines and the discontinuation or restriction of MKD’s operations, as well as proceedings and actions. Any such penalties, proceedings or actions may disrupt MKD’s business operations and materially and adversely affect MKD’s reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Taiwan

Any lack of requisite approvals, licenses, permits or filings or failure to comply with any requirements of Taiwan laws, regulations and policies may materially and adversely affect MKD’s daily operations.

In accordance with the relevant Taiwan laws and regulations, MKD is required to maintain various approvals, licenses, permits and filings to operate its business. Whether such approvals, licenses, permits and filings are obtained is subject to satisfactory compliance with, among other things, the applicable laws and regulations. If MKD is unable to obtain any of such licenses and permits or extend or renew any of their current licenses or permits upon their expirations, or if it is required to incur significant additional costs to obtain or renew these licenses, permits and approvals, its daily operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Cross-Straits relationship imposes macroeconomic risks which could negatively affect MKD’s business.

MKD maintains a manufacturing facility, office and conducts a portion of its sales in Taiwan, and a substantial portion of its revenues is derived from operations in Taiwan. MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be affected by potential economical and/or military issues in Taiwan.

Taiwan has a unique international political status due to historical reasons. Although significant economic and cultural relations have been established during recent years between Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), the PRC government has refused to renounce the possibility that it may at some point use force to gain control over Taiwan. For example, the PRC government adopted an anti-secession law relating to Taiwan. Sanctions against Taiwan entities or persons, and military blockage or actions from the PRC, may significantly harm Taiwan’s economy. Cross-Straits relations between Taiwan and the PRC have been strained in recent years for a variety of reasons, including tensions concerning arms sales to Taiwan by the United States government and visits to Taiwan by United States government officials. The financial markets have viewed certain past developments in relations between Taiwan and the PRC as occasions to depress general market prices of the securities of Taiwan companies. Any tension between Taiwan and the PRC, or between the United States and the PRC, could materially and adversely affect MKD’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

MKD is subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments, which may restrict PubCo’s ability to satisfy the liquidity requirements.

As a company incorporated under the laws of the BVI structured as a holding company, PubCo may need dividends and other distributions on equity from its Taiwan subsidiaries following the Business Combination to satisfy its liquidity requirements. Current Taiwan regulations permit Taiwan companies to pay dividends to its shareholders only out of accumulated profits, if any, which shall first make up previous losses and set aside at least 10% of accumulated profits each year as a statutory reserve. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Once the statutory reserve has reached the total amount of the capital, MKD Taiwan is not required to continue setting aside any amounts for the purpose of statutory reserve. Furthermore, if MKD Taiwan incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict the ability to pay dividends or make other payments to PubCo. Any limitation on the ability of MKD Taiwan to distribute dividends or to make payments to PubCo may restrict PubCo’s ability to satisfy its liquidity requirements. In addition, the dividend or distribution payments by MKD Taiwan to MKD BVI shall be subject to a withholding tax of 21% under current Taiwan tax law.

MKD’s Taiwan entity is subject to foreign exchange control imposed by Taiwan authorities, which may affect the paying dividends, repatriating the interest or making other payments to us.

Currently Taiwan regulates only those foreign exchange transactions that involve the conversion of the New Taiwan Dollar into foreign currencies. Pursuant to the relevant provisions of the Taiwan Foreign Exchange Control Act, foreign exchange transactions of a value of NTD 500,000 or more shall be declared to the Central Bank of Taiwan. Further, for a remittance by a company as follows, relevant testimonials shall be submitted and such remittance shall be subject to the approval of the Central Bank of Taiwan: (i) a single remittance of an amount over US$1 million; or (ii) annual accumulated settlement amount of foreign exchange purchased or sold has exceeded US$50 million. Nevertheless, the Taiwan government may impose further foreign exchange restrictions in certain emergency situations, where the Taiwan government experiences extreme difficulty in stabilizing the balance of payments or where there are substantial disturbances in the financial and capital markets in Taiwan. If the dividend payments or other payments by MKD’s Taiwan subsidiaries and branches to us involves the currency conversion from New Taiwan Dollar to United States Dollar, such conversion would be subject to the foregoing foreign exchange control imposed by a Taiwan authority.

40

We may be required to obtain approvals from Taiwan authority for investment in MKD’s Taiwan subsidiary if the shareholding of MKD at the time of or after the Proposed Transaction reaches the threshold for such approval.

Under current Taiwan laws, regulations and policy, the shareholder of MKD Taiwan will be required to obtain approval from the Investment Commission, Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan for its investment in its Taiwanese subsidiary if more than 30% of its capital is directly or indirectly owned by, or beneficially owned by any PRC person or it is under control by any PRC person. Failure to obtain such approval, if needed, may subject us to a Taiwan authority’s monetary penalty of from NTD120,000 to NTD25,000,000 and be ordered to rectify within a specific timeline; if such approval is not applied for, the Taiwan authority may order investment withdrawal and operations in Taiwan to be suspended.

MKD’s Taiwan subsidiary bears product liabilities for damages caused by MKD’s products under Taiwan regulations on consumer protection.

Currently, a portion of MKD’s products are manufactured and sold in Taiwan. Pursuant to the Taiwan Consumer Protection Act, enterprises engaging in the design, manufacture of goods or provision of services shall ensure such goods or services, when entering into the market, comply with the contemporary technological or professional standards with reasonably expected safety requirements. In the event of any violation of the aforesaid regulation, the enterprises shall be liable for the damage caused to the consumers or third parties. If MKD’s products fail to comply with the contemporary technological or professional standards with reasonably expected safety requirements applicable in Taiwan, MKD will be liable for the damages caused by such products. If MKD incurs significant liabilities in connection with product liabilities, its business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

MKD Taiwan’s insurance coverage may not adequately protect MKD Taiwan and its subsidiary against certain operating and other hazards which may have an adverse effect on their business.

MKD Taiwan believes that the coverage from insurance policies for operation facilities is in line with industry norms. However, there can be no assurance that any claim under the insurance policies maintained will be timely honored in full or at all. To the extent that MKD Taiwan suffers loss or damages that is not covered by insurance or exceeds insurance coverage, MKD Taiwan’s business, results of operations and financial condition may be affected. There can also be no assurance that insurance will continue to be available to provide reasonable, or any, coverage on reasonable commercial terms.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against MKD’s group entities or management in Taiwan.

PubCo is a company incorporated under the laws of the BVI, but MKD generates substantially all of its revenues from Taiwan and Mainland China and substantially all assets are located in Taiwan and Mainland China. In addition, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang, Mr. Chih-Hsiang Tang, Mr. Chung-Yi Sun, and Mr. Jung-Te Chang ordinarily reside within Taiwan (Ms. Min-Jie Cui ordinarily resides within Mainland China). As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside Taiwan. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against MKD and its officers and directors as none of them currently resides in the U.S. or has substantial assets located in the U.S.

Taiwan courts will recognize a final judgment (for which the period for appeal has expired or from which no appeal can be taken) obtained against MKD, its officers or directors in any court other than Taiwan courts without further review of the merits of such judgment, if it is satisfied that: (a) the court rendering the judgment had jurisdiction over the subject matter according to the laws of Taiwan; (b) the judgment or the court proceedings resulting in the judgment was not contrary to the public order or good morals of Taiwan; (c) if the judgment was rendered by default by the court rendering the judgment, (i) MKD or its officers, directors or such persons was duly served in the jurisdiction of such court within a reasonable period of time in accordance with the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction, or (ii) process was served on MKD or its officers, directors or such persons with judicial assistance of Taiwan; and (d) judgments of Taiwan courts would be recognized and enforceable in the jurisdiction of the court rendering such judgment on a reciprocal basis. Hence, in certain cases, claimants may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against MKD’s group entities or management.

Risks Related to PubCo

Currently, there is no public market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares. Cetus Capital stockholders cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop for, or of the market price of, the PubCo Ordinary Shares they will receive or that PubCo will successfully obtain authorization for listing on Nasdaq.

As part of the Business Combination, each share of Cetus Common Stock will be converted into the right to receive one PubCo Ordinary Share. PubCo is a newly formed entity and prior to this transaction it has not issued any securities in the U.S. markets or elsewhere nor has there been extensive information about it, its businesses, or its operations publicly available. MKD Taiwan and PubCo have agreed to cause the PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued in the Business Combination to be approved for listing on Nasdaq prior to the effective time of the Business Combination. However, the listing of shares on Nasdaq does not ensure that a market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares will develop or the price at which the shares will trade. No assurance can be provided as to the demand for or trading price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares following the Closing and the PubCo Ordinary Shares may trade at a price less than the current market price of the Cetus Common Stock.

41

Even if PubCo is successful in developing a public market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares, there may not be enough liquidity in such market to enable shareholders to sell their shares. If a public market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares does not develop, investors may not be able to re-sell their shares, rendering their shares illiquid and possibly resulting in a complete loss of their investment. PubCo cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in PubCo will lead to the development of an active, liquid trading market. The trading price of and demand for the PubCo Ordinary Shares following Closing of the Business Combination and the development and continued existence of a market and favorable price for the PubCo Ordinary Shares will depend on a number of factors, including the development of a market following, including by analysts and other investment professionals, the business, operations, results and prospects of PubCo, general market and economic conditions, governmental actions, regulatory considerations, and legal proceedings and developments. These and other factors may impair the development of a liquid market and the ability of investors to sell PubCo Ordinary Shares at an attractive price. These factors also could cause the market price and demand for the PubCo Ordinary Shares to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares and may otherwise affect negatively the price and liquidity of the PubCo Ordinary Shares. Many of these factors and conditions are beyond the control of PubCo or PubCo shareholders.

PubCo’s share price may be volatile and could decline substantially.

The market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares may be volatile, both because of actual and perceived changes in PubCo’s financial results and prospects, and because of general volatility in the stock market. The factors that could cause fluctuations in PubCo’s share price may include, among other factors discussed in this section, the following:

| ● | actual or anticipated variations in the financial results and prospects of the company or other companies in the same industry;

| ● | changes in economic and financial market conditions;

| ● | changes in the market valuations of other companies in the same industry;

| ● | announcements by PubCo or its competitors of new services, expansions, investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;

| ● | mergers or other business combinations involving PubCo;

| ● | additions and departures of key personnel and senior management;

| ● | changes in accounting principles;

| ● | the passage of legislation or other developments affecting PubCo or its industry;

| ● | the trading volume of the PubCo Ordinary Shares in the public market;

| ● | the release of lockup, escrow or other transfer restrictions on PubCo’s outstanding equity securities or sales of additional equity securities;

| ● | potential litigation or regulatory investigations;

| ● | changes in financial estimates by research analysts;

| ● | natural disasters, terrorist acts, acts of war or periods of civil unrest; and

| ● | the realization of some or all of the risks described in this section.

In addition, the stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations from time to time, and the market prices of the equity securities of retailers have been extremely volatile and are sometimes subject to sharp price and trading volume changes. These broad market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares.

42

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of PubCo Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price.

Sales of substantial amounts of PubCo Ordinary Shares in the public market after the completion of the Business Combination, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares and could materially impair PubCo’s ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. The PubCo Ordinary Shares listed after the Business Combination will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. In connection with the Business Combination, MKD BVI’s shareholders will exchange the ordinary shares of MKD BVI held by them, and Cetus Capital’s stockholders will exchange the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by them, for PubCo Ordinary Shares upon the consummation of the Business Combination, and certain shareholders of MKD BVI and of Cetus Capital will agree, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell any PubCo Ordinary Shares for 180 days after the Closing without the prior written consent of PubCo. There will be 19,305,182 issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately after the Business Combination assuming no redemption of Public Shares and no further adjustments of the number of shares to be issued to MKD BVI shareholders pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. Market sales of securities held by PubCo’s significant shareholders or any other holders or the availability of these securities for future sale will have a material impact on the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares.

PubCo will issue ordinary shares as consideration for the Business Combination, and PubCo may issue additional ordinary shares or other equity or convertible debt securities without approval of the holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares, which would dilute existing ownership interests and may depress the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares.

PubCo may issue additional ordinary shares or other equity or convertible debt securities of equal or senior rank in the future without approval of the holders of the PubCo Ordinary Shares in certain circumstances.

PubCo’s issuance of additional ordinary shares or other convertible equity or debt securities of equal or senior rank would have the following effects: (1) the proportionate ownership interest of PubCo’s existing shareholders may decrease; (2) the amount of cash available per share, including for payment of dividends in the future, may decrease; (3) the relative voting power of each previously outstanding PubCo Ordinary Share may be diminished; and (4) the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares may decline.

Volatility in PubCo’s share price could subject PubCo to securities class action litigation.

The market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their shares have been subject to securities class action litigation. PubCo may be the target of this type of litigation and investigations. Securities litigation against PubCo could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm the business of PubCo and/or MKD Technology.

The requirements of being a public company may strain PubCo’s resources, divert PubCo management’s attention and affect PubCo’s ability to attract and retain qualified board members.

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, Nasdaq listing requirements and other applicable securities rules and regulations. As such, PubCo will incur relevant legal, accounting and other expenses, and these expenses may increase even more if PubCo no longer qualifies as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that PubCo files annual and current reports with respect to PubCo’s business and operating results. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that PubCo maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. PubCo may need to hire more employees or engage outside consultants to comply with these requirements, which will increase PubCo’s costs and expenses.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time-consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. It is expected that these laws and regulations will increase PubCo’s legal and financial compliance costs and will render some activities more time-consuming and costly, although these costs cannot currently be estimated with any degree of certainty.

43

Many members of PubCo’s management team have limited experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. PubCo’s management team may not successfully or efficiently manage the transition to being a public company subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and regulations and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. The need to establish the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may divert the management’s attention from implementing PubCo’s growth strategy, which could prevent the improvement of PubCo’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, it is expected that these rules and regulations will make it more difficult and more expensive to obtain director and officer liability insurance for PubCo, and consequently PubCo may be required to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. These additional obligations could have a material adverse effect on PubCo’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. These factors could also make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified members of PubCo Board, particularly to serve on PubCo’s audit committee, compensation committee and nominating committee, and qualified executive officers.

As a result of disclosure of information in this proxy statement/prospectus and in filings required of a public company, PubCo’s business and financial condition will become more visible, which may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, PubCo’s business and operating results could be adversely affected, and, even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in PubCo’s favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could cause an adverse effect on PubCo’s business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and reputation.

Recent market volatility could impact the share price and trading volume of the PubCo’s securities.

The trading market for PubCo’s securities could be impacted by recent market volatility. Recent stock run-ups, divergences in valuation ratios relative to those seen during traditional markets, high short interest or short squeezes, and strong and atypical retail investor interest in the markets may impact the demand for PubCo Ordinary Shares.

A possible “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand of PubCo Ordinary Shares that largely exceeds supply may lead to price volatility in PubCo Ordinary Shares. Investors may purchase PubCo Ordinary Shares to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares. Speculation on the price of PubCo Ordinary Shares may involve both long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of PubCo Ordinary Shares available for purchase (for example, in the event that large redemption requests dramatically affect liquidity), investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase PubCo Ordinary Shares for delivery to lenders. Those repurchases may in turn, dramatically increase the price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.” A short squeeze could lead to volatile price movements in the PubCo Ordinary Shares that are not directly correlated to the operating performance of PubCo.

It is not expected that PubCo will pay dividends in the near future after the proposed Business Combination.

It is expected that PubCo will retain most, if not all, of PubCo’s available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of PubCo’s business. As a result, it is not expected that PubCo will pay any cash dividends in the near future.

The PubCo Board will have complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. Even if the PubCo Board decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on the future results of operations and cash flow, capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received from PubCo’s subsidiaries, PubCo’s financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. There is no guarantee that PubCo’s shares will appreciate in value or that the trading price of the shares will not decline.

If securities and industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research or cease publishing research about PubCo, the price and trading volume of PubCo’s securities could decline significantly.

The trading market for PubCo Ordinary Shares will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about PubCo or its business. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on PubCo. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of PubCo, the trading price for the PubCo Ordinary Shares would likely be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover PubCo downgrade its securities or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about its business, its stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of PubCo or fail to publish reports on PubCo, demand for the PubCo Ordinary Shares could decrease, which might cause the share price and trading volume of the PubCo Ordinary Shares to decline.

44

PubCo will be a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and as such it is exempt from certain provisions applicable to domestic public companies in the United States.

It is expected that PubCo will qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act upon the consummation of the Business Combination. As a foreign private issuer, PubCo will be exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the United States that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including: (1) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K with the SEC; (2) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; (3) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and (4) the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material nonpublic information under Regulation FD.

PubCo will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. In addition, PubCo may publish PubCo’s results through press releases, distributed pursuant to the rules and regulations of Nasdaq. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information PubCo is required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. Accordingly, you may receive less or different information about PubCo than you would receive about a U.S. domestic public company.

PubCo could lose its status as a foreign private issuer under current SEC rules and regulations if more than 50% of PubCo’s outstanding voting securities become directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. holders and any one of the following is true: (1) the majority of PubCo’s directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (2) more than 50% of PubCo’s assets are located in the United States; or (3) PubCo’s business is administered principally in the United States. If PubCo loses its status as a foreign private issuer in the future, it will no longer be exempt from the rules described above and, among other things, will be required to file periodic reports and annual and quarterly financial statements as if it were a company incorporated in the United States. If this were to happen, PubCo would likely incur substantial costs in fulfilling these additional regulatory requirements and members of PubCo’s management would likely have to divert time and resources from other responsibilities to ensuring these additional regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

As a BVI business company, PubCo is permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if PubCo complied fully with Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards.

PubCo is a BVI business company. Nasdaq market rules permit a foreign private issuer like PubCo to follow the corporate governance practices of PubCo’s home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the BVI, which is PubCo’s home country, may differ significantly from Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards applicable to domestic U.S. companies.

Among other things, PubCo is not required to have: (1) a majority-independent board of directors; (2) a compensation committee consisting of independent directors; (3) a nominating committee consisting of independent directors; or (4) regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year.

If PubCo relies on any of these exemptions, you may not be provided with the benefits of certain corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. PubCo may also follow the home country practice for certain other corporate governance practices after the closing of the Business Combination which may differ from the requirements of Nasdaq. If PubCo chooses to follow the home country practice, PubCo’s shareholders may be afforded fewer protection than they would otherwise enjoy under the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because PubCo is a business company incorporated under the laws of the BVI, PubCo conducts substantially all of its operations and a majority of its directors and executive officers (or candidates) reside outside of the United States.

PubCo is a business company incorporated under the law of the BVI. PubCo conducts substantially all of its operations and a majority of its directors and executive officers (or candidates) reside, outside the United States. Due to the lack of reciprocity and treaties between the United States and some of these foreign jurisdictions, and cost and time constraints, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to enforce against PubCo or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Likewise, it may also be difficult for an investor to enforce in United States courts judgments obtained against these persons in courts located in jurisdictions outside the United States.

PubCo’s corporate affairs are governed by PubCo’s memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act and the common law of the BVI. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of PubCo’s directors to PubCo under BVI law are to a large extent governed by the Companies Act and the common law of the BVI. The common law of the BVI is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the BVI as well as from English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding, authority on a court in the BVI. The rights of PubCo’s shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of PubCo’s directors under BVI law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the BVI has a less developed body of securities laws than the United States and provides significantly less protection to investors. In addition, some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the BVI.

Shareholders of BVI business companies such as PubCo have limited rights under BVI law to inspect corporate documents and records. A shareholder is entitled upon written notice to inspect, and to make copies of or take extract of, the following: (i) the memorandum and articles of association; (ii) the register of members (i.e., the share register); (iii) the register of directors; and (iv) minutes of shareholder meetings and resolutions of shareholders and any class meetings for classes of shares held by that shareholder. PubCo’s directors have a discretion under BVI law, if they are satisfied that it would be contrary to the company’s interests to allow a shareholder to inspect any document, or part of a document, referred to in (ii) - (iv) above, to refuse to permit a shareholder to inspect the document or limit the inspection of the document, including limiting making copies o taking extracts from the records. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

As a result of all of the above, PubCo’s public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a U.S. company. Therefore, you may not be able to effectively enjoy the protection offered by the U.S. laws and regulations that intend to protect public investors.

BVI companies may not have standing to initiate a derivative action in a federal court of the United States. As a result, your ability to protect your interests if you are harmed in a manner that would otherwise enable you to sue in a United States federal court may be limited to direct shareholder lawsuits.

46

Because PubCo is incorporated under the laws of the BVI, it may be more difficult for its shareholders to enforce judgments against PubCo than it would if they were shareholders of a company incorporated in another jurisdiction.

There is no statutory recognition in the BVI of judgments obtained in the United States, although any final and conclusive monetary judgment for a definite sum obtained against PubCo in U.S. federal or state courts would be treated by the BVI courts as a cause of action in itself and sued upon as a debt at common law so that no retrial of the issues would be necessary provided that:

| ● | the U.S. court issuing the judgment had jurisdiction in the matter and PubCo either submitted to such jurisdiction or was resident or carrying on business within such jurisdiction and was duly served with process;
| ● | the judgment given by the U.S. court was not in respect of penalties, taxes, fines or similar fiscal or revenue obligations of PubCo;
| ● | in obtaining judgment there was no fraud on the part of the person in whose favor judgment was given or on the part of the court;
| ● | no new admissible evidence relevant to the action was submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the BVI courts;
| ● | recognition or enforcement of the judgment in the BVI would not be contrary to public policy; and
| ● | the proceedings pursuant to which judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice.

There is therefore uncertainty with regard to BVI law as to whether a judgment obtained from the United States courts under civil liability provisions of the securities laws will be determined by the courts of the BVI as penal or punitive in nature. If such a determination is made, the courts of the BVI are also unlikely to recognize or enforce the judgment against a BVI company. Because the courts of the BVI have yet to rule on whether such judgments are penal or punitive in nature, it is uncertain whether they would be enforceable in the BVI.

PubCo will be an “emerging growth company,” as defined under the federal securities laws, and PubCo cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make the PubCo’s securities less attractive to investors.

PubCo will be an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and it will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the Closing, (b) in which PubCo has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (c) in which PubCo is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of PubCo’s Shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the prior second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which PubCo issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. It is expected that PubCo will take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to most other public companies, whether or not they are classified as “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, an exemption from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that PubCo’s independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of PubCo’s internal control over financial reporting and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

In addition, 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. If PubCo elects not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and PubCo has different application dates for public or private companies, PubCo, 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 PubCo’s financial statements with certain other public companies difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Furthermore, even after PubCo no longer qualifies as an “emerging growth company,” as long as PubCo continues to qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, PubCo will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including, but not limited to, the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition, PubCo will not be required to file annual reports and financial statements with the SEC as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, and are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information.

47

As a result, PubCo’s shareholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. PubCo cannot predict if investors will find PubCo Ordinary Shares less attractive because PubCo relies on these exemptions. If some investors find PubCo Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market and share price for PubCo Ordinary Shares may be more volatile.

PubCo’s warrant agreement will designate the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of its warrants.

PubCo’s warrant agreement will provide that, subject to applicable law, (i) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement, including under the Securities Act, will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and (ii) PubCo irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. PubCo will waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this exclusive forum provision and that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, these provisions of the warrant agreement will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of PubCo’s warrants shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in PubCo’s warrant agreement. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions of the warrant agreement, is filed in a court other than a court of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (a “foreign action”) in the name of any holder of PubCo’s warrants, such holder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an “enforcement action”), and (y) having service of process made upon such warrant holder in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant holder’s counsel in the foreign action as agent for such warrant holder.

This choice-of-forum provision may limit a warrant holder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with PubCo, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of PubCo’s warrant agreement inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, PubCo may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect PubCo’s business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of PubCo’s management and board of directors.

PubCo may be treated as a passive foreign investment company.

There is a risk that PubCo may be treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A non-U.S. corporation generally will be considered to be a PFIC for any taxable year in which 75% or more of its gross income is passive income, or 50% or more of the value, determined on the basis of a quarterly average, of its gross assets are considered “passive assets” (generally, assets that generate passive income). Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents (other than certain rents and royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business), annuities and gains from assets that produce passive income. Cash is a passive asset for PFIC purposes, even if held as working capital. This determination is highly factual, and will depend upon, among other things, PubCo’s market valuation and future financial performance. Because PFIC status is determined based on the composition of PubCo’s income and assets annually and generally cannot be determined until the end of the taxable year, there can be no assurance that PubCo will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year. Accordingly, PubCo is unable to determine whether PubCo or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC for the taxable year of the Business Combination or for future taxable years, and there can be no assurance that PubCo or any of its subsidiaries will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. In the event that PubCo meets the PFIC income or asset test for the current taxable year ending December 31, 2023, the “start-up exception” may not be available. Furthermore, if a U.S. Holder holds PubCo Ordinary Shares and PubCo is a PFIC during such U.S. Holder’s holding period, unless the U.S. Holder makes certain elections, PubCo will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder, even if PubCo ceases to be a PFIC in future taxable years.

If PubCo were to be classified as a PFIC for any future taxable year, a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) will generally be subject to additional taxes and interest charges on the gain from a sale of PubCo Ordinary Shares, and upon receipt of an “excess distribution” with respect to the PubCo Ordinary Shares. In general, a U.S. Holder would receive an “excess distribution” if the amount of any distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes in respect of the PubCo Ordinary Shares were more than 125 percent of the average distributions made with respect to such shares within the three preceding taxable years (or shorter period if such U.S. Holder held the shares for a shorter period). A U.S. Holder of a PFIC generally may mitigate these adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences by making a “qualified electing fund” election or a “mark-to-market” election. However, there is no assurance that PubCo would provide information that would enable a U.S. Holder to make a qualified electing fund election. U.S. owners of PubCo Ordinary Shares should consult their own U.S. tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules. See the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Passive Foreign Investment Company” below.

PubCo may be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation organized under BVI law is not treated as a U.S. corporation and, therefore, is treated as a non-U.S. corporation. Section 7874 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, however, contain rules that may cause a non-U.S. corporation that acquires the stock of a U.S. corporation to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under certain circumstances. If PubCo were treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, among other consequences, it would generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its worldwide income, and its dividends would be treated as dividends from a U.S. corporation.

In addition, Section 7874 of the Code can limit the ability of the acquired U.S. corporation and its U.S. affiliates to use U.S. tax attributes (including net operating losses and certain tax credits) to offset U.S. taxable income resulting from certain transactions, as well as result in certain other adverse tax consequences, even if the acquiring foreign corporation is respected as a foreign corporation for purposes of Section 7874 of the Code. In general, if a foreign corporation acquires, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the properties held directly or indirectly by a U.S. corporation and after the acquisition, the former shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold at least 60% (by either vote or value) but less than 80% (by vote and value) of the shares of the foreign acquiring corporation by reason of holding shares in the acquired U.S. corporation, subject to other requirements, certain adverse tax consequences under Section 7874 of the Code may apply.

48

If these rules apply to the Business Combination, PubCo and certain of PubCo’s shareholders may be subject to adverse tax consequences including, but not limited to, restrictions on the use of tax attributes with respect to “inversion gain” recognized over a 10-year period following the transaction, disqualification of dividends paid from preferential “qualified dividend income” rates and the requirement that any U.S. corporation owned by PubCo include as “base erosion payments” that may be subject to a minimum U.S. federal income tax any amounts treated as reductions in gross income paid to certain related foreign persons. Furthermore, certain “disqualified individuals” (including officers and directors of a U.S. corporation) may be subject to an excise tax on certain stock-based compensation held thereby at a rate of 20%.

PubCo is not currently intended to be subject to these rules under Section 7874 of the Code after the Business Combination. The above determination, however, is subject to detailed regulations (the application of which is uncertain in various respects and could be impacted by future changes in such U.S. Treasury regulations, with possible retroactive effect) and is subject to certain factual uncertainties. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge whether PubCo is subject to the above rules or that such a challenge would not be sustained by a court.

PubCo is not subject to the supervision of the Financial Services Commission of the British Virgin Islands and so our shareholders are not protected by any regulatory inspections in the British Virgin Islands.

PubCo is not an entity subject to any regulatory supervision in the British Virgin Islands by the Financial Services Commission. As a result, shareholders are not protected by any regulatory supervision or inspections by any regulatory agency in the British Virgin Islands and PubCo is not required to observe any restrictions in respect of its conduct save as disclosed in this proxy statement/prospectus or its memorandum and articles of association.

Risks Related to Cetus Capital and the Business Combination

Cetus Capital will be forced to liquidate the Trust Account if it cannot consummate the Business Combination or an initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period. In the event of a liquidation, Cetus Capital’s public stockholders are expected to receive approximately $10.79 per share, based on the amount in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024.

If Cetus Capital is unable to consummate the Business Combination or an initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period and is forced to liquidate, the per share liquidation distribution is expected to be approximately $10.79, based on the amount in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals.

There is no guarantee that a stockholder’s decision whether to redeem its Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put such stockholder in a better future economic position.

Cetus Capital can give no assurance as to the price at which a stockholder may be able to sell its Public Shares in the future following the consummation of the Business Combination or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in the stock price of the Combined Company and may result in a lower value realized upon redemption than a stockholder of Cetus Capital might realize in the future had the stockholder not redeemed its Public Shares. Similarly, if a stockholder does not redeem its Public Shares, the stockholder will bear the risk of ownership of the PubCo Ordinary Shares after the consummation of the Business Combination, and there can be no assurance that a stockholder can sell its PubCo Ordinary Shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price paid in connection with the redemption of the Public Shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. A stockholder should consult the stockholder’s own tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her or its individual situation.

49

You must tender your shares of Cetus Common Stock in order to validly seek redemption at the Special Meeting.

In connection with tendering your shares for redemption, you must elect either to physically tender your share certificates to CST or to deliver your shares of Cetus Common Stock to CST electronically using the DTC’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, in each case, at least two business days before the Special Meeting. The requirement for physical or electronic delivery ensures that a redeeming holder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once a Business Combination is consummated. Any failure to observe these procedures will result in your loss of redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.

The Business Combination may not close if there are insufficient funds remaining in the Trust Account or from external sources to satisfy all validly tendered redemptions.

Cetus Capital is convening this special meeting of its stockholders to consider, among others, the NTA Amendment Proposal. If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and holders of 1,409,540 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, this will leave 649,394 Public Shares outstanding, which represents the maximum redemption amount so that the Combined Company would have sufficient cash resources to pay estimated transaction fees and expenses, after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting). Cetus Capital will not decline to honor any properly tendered redemptions but redemptions in excess of 1,409,540 Public Shares will be satisfied by other funds outside the Trust Account. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied. To satisfy such redemption requests, the Combined Company may have to rely on internal working capital or capital from external sources, such as PIPE financing from external investors. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements have been entered into with any PIPE investors to purchase new ordinary shares of PubCo. There is no certainty that any PIPE financing, or any other type of financing, will be secured if required to meet any redemption requests. Hence, if there are insufficient funds available to satisfy all validly tendered redemptions, the Business Combination will not close. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information—Additional funding required under different redemption scenarios” for further discussions of the amounts of additional funding that may be required under different redemption scenarios.

If the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented, the ability of the Public Stockholders to redeem their shares for cash could cause the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital to be less than $5,000,001, which would prevent Cetus Capital from consummating the Business Combination.

The redemption limitation in the Existing Charter prevents Cetus Capital from consummating an initial business combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of the business combination. The initial purpose of the redemption limitation in the Existing Charter was to ensure that Cetus Capital would not be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC as long as it complied with the redemption limitation, and to therefore not be deemed a “blank check company” as defined under Rule 419 of the Securities Act, because it complied with the NTA Rule (as defined below). The NTA Rule is one of several exclusions from the “penny stock” rules of the SEC, and Cetus Capital believes that it can rely on another exclusion, the Exchange Rule (as defined below), due to its being listed on Nasdaq. Therefore, Cetus Capital has determined that the inclusion of the redemption limitation in the Existing Charter is unnecessary. See “Proposal No. 7 — The NTA Amendment Proposal.”

The ability of the Public Stockholders to redeem their shares for cash could cause the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital to be less than $5,000,001. If the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented, the ability of the Public Stockholders to redeem their shares for cash could cause the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital to be less than $5,000,001, which would prevent Cetus Capital from consummating the Business Combination. If the Business Combination is unsuccessful, the Public Stockholders will not receive their pro rata portion of the Trust Account until the Trust Account is liquidated. If the Public Stockholders are in need of immediate liquidity, they could attempt to sell their Public Shares in the open market; however, at such time, the Public Shares may trade at a discount to the pro rata per-share amount in the Trust Account. In either situation, Cetus Capital’s stockholders may suffer a material loss on their investment or lose the benefit of funds expected in connection with the redemption until Cetus Capital is liquidated or the stockholders of Cetus Capital are able to sell their Public Shares in the open market.

If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, and the Public Shares are redeemed in an amount in excess of the current redemption limitation and Cetus Capital’s securities do not meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist Cetus Capital’s securities from trading on its exchange.

If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, and the Public Shares are redeemed in an amount in excess of the current redemption limitation and Cetus Capital’s securities do not meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist Cetus Capital’s securities from trading on its exchange. If Nasdaq delists any of Cetus Capital’s securities from trading on its exchange and Cetus Capital is not able to list such securities on another approved national securities exchange, we expect that such securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, Cetus Capital could face significant material adverse consequences, including: (i) a limited availability of market quotations for its securities, (ii) reduced liquidity for its securities, (iii) a determination that Cetus Capital Common Stock are “penny stocks” which will require brokers trading in Public Shares to adhere to more stringent rules, including being subject to the depository requirements of Rule 419 of the Securities Act, and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities, (iv) a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future, and (v) a less attractive acquisition vehicle to a target business in connection with an initial business combination. The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Cetus Capital’s common stock, units, warrants and rights qualify as covered securities under such statute. If Cetus Capital were no longer listed on Nasdaq, Cetus Capital’s securities would not qualify as covered securities under such statute and Cetus Capital would be subject to regulation in each state in which it offers its securities.

50

If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, PubCo’s failure to meet the initial listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in an inability to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares and the PubCo Warrants on Nasdaq and the obligation to comply with the “penny stock” rules and could affect PubCo’s cash position following the Business Combination.

The NTA Amendment Proposal seeks to amend the Existing Charter to remove the requirement that Cetus Capital have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 at the closing of the Business Combination. As disclosed in Cetus Capital’s IPO prospectus, because the net proceeds of the IPO were to be used to complete an initial business combination with a target business that had not been selected at the time of the IPO, Cetus Capital may be deemed to be a “blank check company.” Under Rule 419 of the Securities Act the term “blank check company” means a company that (i) is a development stage company that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person; and (ii) is issuing “penny stock,” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act. Rule 3a51-1 sets forth that that term “penny stock” shall mean any equity security, unless it fits within certain enumerated exclusions including (1) the company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 (the “NTA Rule”) or (2) the company is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market (Rule 3a51-1(a)(2)) (the “Exchange Rule”). Cetus Capital may avoid being deemed a penny stock issuer in reliance upon the NTA Rule or the Exchange Rule.

Cetus Capital is asking its stockholders to vote on the NTA Amendment Proposal, because based on the pro forma financial statements of the Combined Company, the Combined Company may not be able to satisfy the NTA Rule.

However, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, and if the net tangible assets of PubCo are less than $5,000,001 upon the Closing, and if all of the conditions to Closing are either satisfied or waived so that the Closing occurs, PubCo’s failure to meet the initial listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in (i) the inability of PubCo to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares and PubCo Warrants on Nasdaq and (ii) the obligation to comply with the “penny stock” trading rules. In particular, based on the pro forma combined balance sheet of Cetus Capital and MKD BVI, the Combined Company will have a deficit shareholders’ equity as at December 31, 2023 if 100% of the current Cetus Capital stockholders redeem their Public Shares. See further “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.” To remedy such deficit, the Combined Company may have to raise additional funding through PIPE investments or other external sources, but there is no certainty such external funding will be available or on acceptable terms.

If the Business Combination is consummated but if PubCo is not able to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares or PubCo Warrants on Nasdaq, such securities would likely then trade only in the over-the-counter market and the market liquidity of PubCo Ordinary Shares and/or PubCo Warrants could be adversely affected and their market price could decrease. If PubCo Ordinary Shares and/or PubCo Warrants were to trade on the over-the-counter market, selling PubCo Ordinary Shares and/or PubCo Warrants could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, transactions could be delayed, and PubCo could face significant material adverse consequences, including: (i) a limited availability of market quotations for its securities, (ii) reduced liquidity with respect to its securities, (iii) a determination that its shares are a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in PubCo securities to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for PubCo securities, (iv) a reduced amount of news and analyst coverage for PubCo, and (v) impaired ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. These factors could result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for PubCo Ordinary Shares and/or PubCo Warrants and would substantially impair its ability to raise additional funds and could result in a loss of institutional investor interest and fewer development opportunities for PubCo.

If the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved, and PubCo fails to have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 and PubCo is unable to list PubCo Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, then PubCo may be required to comply with the “penny stock rules” and this could negatively affect the market for PubCo securities and the ability of PubCo to raise capital following the Business Combination.

If third parties bring claims against Cetus Capital, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share liquidation price received by the Cetus Capital’s stockholders may be less than $10.175.

Cetus Capital’s deposit of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against Cetus Capital. Although Cetus Capital has received from many of the vendors and service providers (other than its independent registered public accounting firm) with which it does business and prospective target business executed agreements waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the Public Stockholders, they may still seek recourse against the Trust Account. Additionally, a court may not uphold the validity of such agreements. Accordingly, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to claims which could take priority over those of the Public Stockholders. If Cetus Capital liquidates the Trust Account before the consummation of a Business Combination and distributes the proceeds held therein to its Public Stockholders, the Sponsor has contractually agreed that it will be liable to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target business or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Cetus Capital for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to it, but only if such a vendor or prospective target business does not execute such a waiver. However, Cetus Capital cannot assure you that the Sponsor will be able to meet such obligation. Therefore, the per share distribution from the Trust Account for the Public Stockholders may be less than $10.175 due to such claims.

Additionally, if Cetus Capital is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it which is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in Cetus Capital’s bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of the Public Stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, Cetus Capital may not be able to return $10.175 to the Public Stockholders.

51

Any distributions received by the Cetus Capital stockholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that immediately following the date on which the distribution was made, Cetus Capital was unable to pay its debts as they became due in the ordinary course of business.

The Existing Charter provides that Cetus Capital will continue in existence only until the expiration of the Business Combination Period. If Cetus Capital is unable to consummate the Business Combination or an initial business combination within the required time period, upon notice from Cetus Capital, the trustee of the Trust Account will distribute the amount in the Trust Account to the Public Stockholders. Concurrently, Cetus Capital shall pay, or reserve for payment, from funds not held in the Trust Account, its liabilities and obligations, although Cetus Capital cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose. If there are insufficient funds held outside the Trust Account for such purpose, the Sponsor has contractually agreed that, if Cetus Capital liquidates prior to the consummation of the Business Combination or an initial business combination, it will be liable to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target business or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Cetus Capital for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to it, but only if such a vendor or prospective target business does not execute a waiver in or to any monies held in the Trust Account. However, Cetus Capital may not properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against it. As such, the Public Stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of the Public Stockholders may extend well beyond the third anniversary of the date of distribution. Accordingly, third parties may seek to recover from the Public Stockholders amounts owed to them by Cetus Capital.

If, after Cetus Capital distributes the proceeds in the Trust Account to the Public Stockholders, Cetus Capital files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against Cetus Capital that is not dismissed, any distributions received by the Public stockholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover all amounts received by the Public Stockholders. In addition, the Cetus Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to Cetus Capital’s creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and Cetus Capital to claims of punitive damages, by paying the Public Stockholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.

The Combined Company’s operating and financial results projections relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses performed by Cetus Capital and MKD. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, the Combined Company’s actual operating results may be materially different from forecasted results.

The projected financial and operating information appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus in the section “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of MKD Taiwan Financial Analysis and Cetus Capital Internal Valuation Discussion” reflect current estimates of future performance and incorporate certain financial and operational assumptions, including the stability of customer retention, growth rates, local government policies, China’s economic performance, and MKD’s business performance. These assumptions are preliminary and there can be no assurance that the actual results upon which our assumptions are based will be in line with our expectations. Such financial projections, by their nature, become subject to greater uncertainty with each succeeding year. The projections are forward-looking statements that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Business of MKD,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of MKD” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” In addition, whether actual operating and financial results and business developments will be consistent with our expectations and assumptions as reflected in our forecast depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including, but not limited to the factors set forth under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” Unfavorable changes in any of these or other factors, most of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial results.

If Cetus Capital’s due diligence investigation of MKD Technology was inadequate, then the Cetus Capital stockholders following the consummation of the Business Combination could lose some or all of their investment.

Even though Cetus Capital conducted a due diligence investigation of MKD Technology, it cannot be sure that this due diligence uncovered all material issues that may be present inside the company or its business, or that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of MKD Technology and its business and outside of its control will not later arise.

Because the Combined Company will become a public reporting company by means other than a traditional underwritten initial public offering, the Combined Company’s shareholders may face additional risks and uncertainties.

Because the Combined Company will become a public reporting company by means of consummating the Business Combination rather than by means of a traditional underwritten initial public offering, there is no independent third-party underwriter selling the PubCo Ordinary Shares, and, accordingly, the Combined Company’s shareholders will not have the benefit of an independent review and investigation of the type normally performed by an unaffiliated, independent underwriter in a public securities offering. Due diligence reviews typically include an independent investigation of the background of the company, any advisors and their respective affiliates, review of the offering documents and independent analysis of the plan of business and any underlying financial assumptions. Because there is no independent third-party underwriter selling the PubCo Ordinary Shares, the Cetus Capital stockholders must rely on the information included in this proxy statement/prospectus. Although Cetus Capital performed a due diligence review and investigation of MKD Technology in connection with the Business Combination, the lack of an independent due diligence review and investigation increases the risk of investment in the Combined Company because it may not have uncovered facts that would be important to a potential investor.

In addition, because the Combined Company will not become a public reporting company by means of a traditional underwritten initial public offering, security or industry analysts may not provide, or be less likely to provide, coverage of the Combined Company. Investment banks may also be less likely to agree to underwrite secondary offerings on behalf of the Combined Company than they might if the Combined Company became a public reporting company by means of a traditional underwritten initial public offering, because they may be less familiar with the Combined Company as a result of more limited coverage by analysts and the media. The failure to receive research coverage or support in the market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares could have an adverse effect on the Combined Company’s ability to develop a liquid market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares. See “— Risks Related to the PubCo Ordinary Shares — If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about the Combined Company, or publish negative reports, the Combined Company’s stock price and trading volume could decline.”

The Sponsor and EF Hutton have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus, regardless of how the Public Stockholders vote.

Unlike many other blank check companies in which the initial stockholders agree to vote their shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the company’s public stockholders in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor and EF Hutton have agreed to vote any shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and EF Hutton own 46.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock. The Sponsor and EF Hutton have agreed to vote any shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and, accordingly, Cetus Capital would not need any Public Shares to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order to have it approved assuming that only a quorum was present at the meeting, and would only need 138,530 Public Shares to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order to have it approved assuming that all outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock were present at the meeting. As a result, it is more likely that the necessary stockholder approval will be received for the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals than would be the case if the Sponsor and EF Hutton agreed to vote any shares of Cetus Common Stock owned by them in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by Cetus Capital’s Public Stockholders.

Stockholder litigation and regulatory inquiries and investigations are expensive and could harm Cetus Capital’s business, financial condition and results of operations and could divert management attention.

In the past, securities class action litigation and/or stockholder derivative litigation and inquiries or investigations by regulatory authorities have often followed certain significant business transactions, such as the sale of a company or announcement of any other strategic transaction, such as the Business Combination. Any stockholder litigation and/or regulatory investigations against Cetus Capital, whether or not resolved in Cetus Capital’s favor, could result in substantial costs and divert Cetus Capital’s management’s attention from other business concerns, which could adversely affect Cetus Capital’s business, financial condition and results of operations and the ultimate value the Cetus Capital stockholders receive as a result of the consummation of the Business Combination.

Cetus Capital may not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company if such initial business combination is subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), or ultimately prohibited.

The Sponsor is controlled by AWinner Limited, a BVI business company the sole shareholder and director of which is Chung-Yi Sun, a resident of Taiwan and the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Cetus Capital. As noted elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, each of PubCo, MKD BVI, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 is a BVI business company, and MKD Taiwan is a Taiwan business entity the assets and business operations of which are primarily in Mainland China and Taiwan. The Cetus Board is comprised of four persons who are residents of Taiwan (Chung-Yi Sun, Cheng-Nan Wu, June-Te Chang and Grace F. L. Peng) and one person who is a resident of Mainland China (Lin Bao). It is contemplated that, following the Closing of the Business Combination, all of the directors and officers of the Combined Company will reside and hold substantially all of their assets outside of the United States, with Ming-Chia Huang, Ming-Chao Huang, Chih-Hsiang Tang, Chung-Yi Sun and Jung-Te Chang ordinarily being residents of Taiwan and with Min-Jie Cui being a resident of Mainland China.

As a result of the involvement of non-US persons in the Business Combination, as described above, it is possible that if Cetus Capital were to conduct a business combination with a U.S. business, such business combination might be subject to review by U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity such as CFIUS, the scope of which was expanded by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (“FIRRMA”) to include certain non-passive, non-controlling investments in sensitive U.S. businesses and certain acquisitions of real estate even with no underlying U.S. business. FIRRMA, and subsequent implementing regulations that are now in force, also subjects certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If Cetus Capital’s potential initial business combination with a U.S. business falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, Cetus Capital may determine that it is required to make a mandatory filing or that it will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. U.S. regulators of foreign investment such as CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order Cetus Capital to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the Combined Company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, or ultimately prohibit the initial business combination, which may limit the attractiveness of or prevent Cetus Capital from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that Cetus Capital believes would otherwise be beneficial to Cetus Capital and its stockholders.

As a result, the pool of potential targets with which Cetus Capital could complete an initial business combination may be limited and Cetus Capital may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues.

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and Cetus Capital has limited time to complete its initial business combination. If Cetus Capital cannot complete its initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period because the review process drags on beyond such timeframe or because Cetus Capital’s initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, Cetus Capital may be required to liquidate. If Cetus Capital liquidates, Cetus Capital’s public stockholders may only receive approximately $10.79 per share based on amounts on deposit in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals, and its rights and warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose the investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the Combined Company.

Please see “Risk Factors – You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against us or our management named in the prospectus based on China laws”, and “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities Under U.S. Securities Laws” for further information about the involvement of non-US persons in the Business Combination and the potential implications of such involvement.

The Sponsor, which owns shares of Cetus Common Stock and Private Units, will not participate in liquidation distributions and, therefore, may have a conflict of interest in determining whether the Business Combination is appropriate.

As of the record date, the Sponsor owned an aggregate of 1,437,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock and 286,875 Private Units. The Sponsor has waived its right to redeem these shares of Cetus Common Stock, or to receive distributions with respect to these shares of Cetus Common Stock upon the liquidation of the Trust Account, if Cetus Capital is unable to consummate an initial business combination within the required time period. This arrangement was part of the agreements made by the Sponsor in connection with the IPO. No consideration was paid by any person in exchange for the Sponsor’s agreement to waive such right. Based on a market price of $10.63 per share of Cetus Common Stock and $10.60 per Cetus Unit on June 7, 2024, the value of these securities was approximately $18.2 million. The shares of Cetus Common Stock and Private Units acquired prior to or concurrently with the consummation of the IPO will be worthless if Cetus Capital does not consummate an initial business combination within the required time period. Consequently, Cetus Capital’s executive officers’ and directors’ discretion in identifying and selecting MKD Taiwan as a suitable target business may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether the terms, conditions and timing of the Business Combination are appropriate and in the Public Stockholders’ best interest.

53

The Sponsor and Cetus Capital’s directors and executive officers who hold Founder Shares and/or Private Units may receive a positive return on the Founder Shares and/or Private Units even if Cetus Capital’s public stockholders experience a negative return on their investment after consummation of the Business Combination.

If Cetus Capital is able to complete a business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor and Cetus Capital’s directors and executive officers who hold Founder Shares and/or Private Units may receive a positive return on their investments which were acquired prior to the IPO, or concurrently with completion of the IPO, even if Cetus Capital’s public stockholders experience a negative return on their investment in Cetus Common Stock after consummation of the Business Combination.

The Sponsor, Cetus Capital’s executive officers and directors and certain affiliates of Cetus Capital may have certain conflicts in connection with the Business Combination, since certain of their interests are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a stockholder of Cetus Capital.

The Sponsor and Cetus Capital’s executive officers and directors have interests in each of the Proposals that are different from, or in addition to, and which may conflict with, your interest as a stockholder of Cetus Capital. These interests include, among other things:

| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will be required to liquidate. In such event, the 1,437,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor, which were acquired prior to the IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, will be worthless. Such shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $15.3 million based on the closing price of Cetus Common Stock of $10.63 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;
| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, the 286,875 Private Units purchased by the Sponsor for a total purchase price of $2,868,750, will be worthless. Such Private Units had an aggregate market value of approximately $3.0 million based on the closing price of Cetus Units of $10.60 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;
| ● | The exercise of Cetus Capital’s directors’ and officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the transaction may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in the best interest of the stockholders of Cetus Capital;
| ● | Cetus Capital’s officers and directors, the Sponsor and its affiliates will be reimbursed for any reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Cetus Capital’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations (including the Business Combination). As of June 7, 2024, an aggregate of $0 had been incurred or accrued in respect of such expense reimbursement obligation;
| ● | In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Cetus Capital’s insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan Cetus Capital funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. If Cetus Capital completes a Business Combination, Cetus Capital may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, Cetus Capital may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete an initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension, subject to the obligation of MKD Taiwan to fund all or a portion of the deposit for each extension as more fully set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into private units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. These private units would be identical to the Private Units. As of June 7, 2024, the Sponsor loaned to Cetus Capital an aggregate of approximately $1.0 million, which amount remains unpaid as of such date;
| ● | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate; and
| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is completed, there will be five members of the PubCo Board, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate up to five (5) members (who have been determined to be Ming-Chia Huang, Ming-Chao Huang and Chih-Hsiang Tang) and with the Sponsor having the right to designate two (2) members (which designees are Chung-Yi Sun and Jung-Te Chang). MKD Taiwan has not determined the identities of its two (2) remaining nominees, the appointment of whom will not be considered at the special meeting of stockholders of Cetus Capital.

54

These interests may influence the Cetus Board in making its recommendation that you vote in favor of the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals.

Cetus Capital is requiring the Public Stockholders of Cetus Capital who wish to redeem their Public Shares in connection with the Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline for exercising their redemption rights.

Cetus Capital is requiring the Public Stockholders of Cetus Capital who wish to redeem their Public Shares to either tender their certificates to CST or to deliver their shares to CST electronically using the DTC’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System at least two business days prior to the Special Meeting. In order to obtain a physical certificate, a stockholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC and CST will need to act to facilitate this request. It is Cetus Capital’s understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from CST. However, because Cetus Capital does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, it may take significantly longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate. While Cetus Capital has been advised that it takes a short time to deliver shares through the DTC’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, Cetus Capital cannot assure you of this fact.

Accordingly, if it takes longer than Cetus Capital anticipates for stockholders to deliver their Public Shares, stockholders who wish to redeem their Public Shares may be unable to meet the deadline for exercising their redemption rights and thus may be unable to redeem their Public Shares.

Redeeming stockholders of Cetus Capital may be unable to sell their Public Shares when they wish in the event that the Business Combination is not consummated.

If Cetus Capital requires Public Stockholders who wish to redeem their Public Shares in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination to comply with specific requirements for redemption as described in this proxy statement/prospectus and a Business Combination is not consummated, Cetus Capital will promptly return such certificates to its Public Stockholders. Accordingly, Public Stockholders who attempted to redeem their Public Shares in such a circumstance will be unable to sell their Public Shares in the event that a Business Combination is not consummated until Cetus Capital has returned their Public Shares to them. The market price for shares of Cetus Common Stock may decline during this time and you may not be able to sell your Public Shares when you wish, even while other stockholders that did not seek redemption may be able to sell their shares of Cetus Common Stock.

The exercise by Cetus Capital’s security holders of their registration rights with respect to the Founder Shares, the Private Units and the underlying securities may have an adverse effect on the market price of Cetus Capital’s securities.

The Sponsor is entitled to make a demand that Cetus Capital register the resale of the Founder Shares, the Private Units and the underlying securities at any time following the Closing of the Business Combination. In addition, the Sponsor is entitled to demand that Cetus Capital register the resale of the shares of Cetus Common Stock underlying any securities the Sponsor may be issued in payment of working capital loans and extension loans made to Cetus Capital at any time after the Closing of the Business Combination. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, these rights will also apply to PubCo Ordinary Shares issued (or issuable) to the Sponsor in exchange for Cetus Common Stock (or securities exercisable for or convertible into Cetus Common Stock) in the Business Combination. If the Sponsor exercises its registration rights with respect to all of its securities, and without giving effect to the exercise of the warrants held by the Sponsor, then there will be an additional 1,772,187 PubCo Ordinary Shares eligible for trading in the public market following the Closing of the Business Combination. The presence of these additional PubCo Ordinary Shares trading in the public market may adversely affect the market price of PubCo’s securities following the Closing of the Business Combination.

55

Cetus Capital will not obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated third party as to the fairness of the Business Combination to Cetus Capital’s stockholders.

Cetus Capital is not required to obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated third party that the price being paid in the Business Combination is fair to Cetus Capital’s public stockholders from a financial point of view. Cetus Capital’s Public Stockholders therefore must rely solely on the judgment of the Cetus Board.

If the Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of financial or industry analysts, the market price of Cetus Capital’s securities may decline.

The market price of Cetus Capital’s securities may decline as a result of the consummation of the Business Combination if:

| ● | Cetus Capital does not achieve the perceived benefits of the Business Combination as rapidly as, or to the extent anticipated by, financial or industry analysts; or
| ● | the effect of the Business Combination on the financial statements is not consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts.

Accordingly, investors may experience a loss as a result of decreasing market price of Cetus Common Stock.

Cetus Capital has incurred and expects to incur significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is consummated, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by the Combined Company if the Business Combination is consummated or by Cetus Capital if the Business Combination is not consummated.

Cetus Capital has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, significant costs associated with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is consummated, Cetus Capital expects to incur approximately $2.3 million in expenses, including deferred underwriting fees. These expenses will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by the Combined Company if the Business Combination is consummated or by Cetus Capital if the Business Combination is not consummated. If the Business Combination is not consummated, Cetus Capital may not have sufficient funds to seek an alternative business combination and may be forced to liquidate and dissolve. If the Business Combination is consummated, there is no assurance that the funds remaining available to the Combined Company, including funds available in the Trust Account after giving effect to redemptions of Public Shares, will be sufficient to pay the estimated expenses associated with the Business Combination, in which event the Combined Company would have to obtain such funds from alternative sources, which may or may not be available on terms acceptable to the Combined Company or at all.

ARC Group, the financial advisor to Cetus Capital in connection with the Business Combination, has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included herein with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination. You are cautioned not to place any reliance on the fact that ARC Group has been previously involved with the Business Combination.

Cetus Capital entered into an agreement with ARC Group on February 10, 2023 pursuant to which Cetus Capital engaged ARC Group as merger and acquisition advisor in connection with the identification of and negotiations with potential business combination targets and other financial advisory services as agreed upon (such agreement, the “ARC Engagement Agreement”). During its engagement with Cetus Capital, among other things, ARC Group assisted Cetus Capital with the comparable company analysis as set forth on page 81 of this proxy statement/prospectus, which analysis was based on financial forecasts provided by MKD Taiwan and from publicly available consensus research and analysts’ estimates from the Factset Research Systems Inc. database as of March 15, 2023, as well as other publicly available information. Other than the comparable company analysis noted above, which was prepared on or about March 27, 2023, several months prior to the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement and the preparation of the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, ARC Group was not involved in the preparation of any of the disclosures contained in this proxy statement/prospectus or any material underlying such disclosures (or the review thereof), nor did it prepare any other materials that were reviewed by the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination.

On May 15, 2023, ARC Group submitted a letter of termination of the ARC Engagement Agreement, which was accepted by Cetus Capital. ARC Group has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included in the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination.

Investors are cautioned not to place any reliance on the fact that ARC Group has been previously involved with the Business Combination described in this proxy statement/prospectus, particularly given the fact that ARC Group has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included herein with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what the Combined Company’s actual financial condition or results of operations would have been.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the Combined Company’s actual financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination been consummated on the dates indicated. The preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was based upon available information and certain estimates and assumptions that Cetus Capital and MKD Technology believe are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects adjustments, which are based upon preliminary estimates. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” for more information.

56

Termination of the Business Combination Agreement could negatively impact Cetus Capital.

If the Business Combination is not consummated for any reason, including as a result of the Cetus Capital stockholders declining to approve the Proposals required to effect the Business Combination, the ongoing business of Cetus Capital may be adversely impacted and, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of the consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

| ● | Cetus Capital may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on the stock price of Cetus Common Stock, including to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the Business Combination will be consummated;
| ● | Cetus Capital will have incurred substantial expenses and will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Business Combination, whether or not the Business Combination is consummated; and
| ● | since the Business Combination Agreement restricts the conduct of the business of Cetus Capital prior to consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital may not have been able to take certain actions during the pendency of the Business Combination that would have benefitted it as an independent company, and the opportunity to take such actions may no longer be available.

If the Business Combination Agreement is terminated and the Cetus Board seeks another business combination, the stockholders of Cetus Capital cannot be certain that Cetus Capital will be able to find another target business or that such other business combination will be consummated. See “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Termination.”

The obligations associated with being a public company will involve significant expenses and will require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from the business operations of MKD Technology.

As a result of the Business Combination, the Combined Company will become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Exchange Act requires that the Combined Company file annual and current reports with respect to its business, financial condition and results of operations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that the Combined Company establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. As a result, the Combined Company will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that it did not previously incur. The Combined Company’s entire management team and many of its other employees will need to devote substantial time to compliance and may not effectively or efficiently manage its transition into a public company.

In addition, the need to establish the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may also divert management’s attention from implementing the Combined Company’s business strategy, which could prevent it from improving its business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. The Combined Company has made, and will continue to make, changes to its internal control over financial reporting, including information technology controls, and procedures for financial reporting and accounting systems to meet its reporting obligations as a public company. However, the measures the Combined Company takes may not be sufficient to satisfy its obligations as a public company. If the Combined Company does not continue to develop and implement the right processes and tools to manage its changing enterprise and maintain its culture, its ability to compete successfully and achieve its business objectives could be impaired, which could negatively impact its business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. In addition, the Combined Company cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs it may incur to comply with these requirements. The Combined Company anticipates that these costs will materially increase its general and administrative expenses.

These rules and regulations result in the Combined Company’s incurring legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, the Combined Company expects these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for it to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and the Combined Company may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for the Combined Company to attract and retain qualified people to serve on the Combined Company’s board of directors, or committees thereof, or as executive officers of the Combined Company.

As a public reporting company, the Combined Company will be subject to rules and regulations established from time to time by the SEC regarding its internal control over financial reporting. If the Combined Company fails to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, it may not be able to accurately report its financial results or report them in a timely manner.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company will become a public reporting company subject to the rules and regulations established from time to time by the SEC and Nasdaq. These rules and regulations will require, among other things, that the Combined Company establish and periodically evaluate procedures with respect to its internal control over financial reporting. Reporting obligations as a public company are likely to place a considerable strain on the Combined Company’s financial and management systems, processes and controls, as well as on its personnel. In addition, as a public company, the Combined Company will be required to document and test its internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act so that its management can certify as to the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting.

In the event that a significant number of the Public Shares are redeemed, the PubCo Ordinary Shares may become less liquid following the Closing of the Business Combination.

If a significant number of Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, on top of the Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting, the Combined Company may be left with a significantly smaller number of stockholders. As a result, trading in the shares of the Combined Company may be limited and the Combined Company’s public float would be reduced, which could cause the trading price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares to become volatile, which could cause downward pressure on the trading price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares, and which could adversely affect your ability to sell your PubCo Ordinary Shares in the market. These factors would be exacerbated by (A) the fact that the Sponsor and certain other significant holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares, who will collectively hold, after the Closing of the Business Combination, approximately 6,450,615 PubCo Ordinary Shares, constituting approximately 33.4% to 37.4% of the total issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately after the Closing, will be subject to lock-up agreements that will restrict their ability to sell their shares on Nasdaq, and (B) the fact that neither Cetus Capital nor MKD Taiwan (nor any of their affiliates) have entered into any agreements regarding supplemental financing to be made available to the Combined Company at the Closing, such as a PIPE, private placement or forward purchase agreement. Although the Combined Company has applied to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, Nasdaq may not list the PubCo Ordinary Shares on its exchange, which could limit the ability of investors to effect transactions in the PubCo Ordinary Shares and subject the Combined Company to additional trading restrictions.

The Combined Company will be required to meet the initial listing requirements to be listed on Nasdaq. However, the Combined Company may be unable to maintain the listing of its securities in the future.

There can be no assurance that the securities of the Combined Company will continue to be listed on Nasdaq following the Closing of the Business Combination. In particular, based on the pro forma combined balance sheet of Cetus Capital and MKD BVI, the Combined Company will have a deficit shareholders’ equity as at December 31, 2023 if 100% of the current Cetus Capital stockholders redeem their Public Shares. See further “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.” To remedy such deficit, the Combined Company may have to raise additional funding through PIPE investments or other external sources, but there is no certainty such external funding will be available or on acceptable terms. If the Combined Company fails to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements and Nasdaq delists the PubCo Ordinary Shares from trading on its exchange and the Combined Company is not able to list its securities on another national securities exchange, the Combined Company could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

| ● | a limited availability of market quotations for the PubCo Ordinary Shares;
| ● | reduced liquidity and trading price for the PubCo Ordinary Shares;
| ● | a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for the Combined Company; and
| ● | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Cetus Capital may waive one or more of the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination without resoliciting stockholder approval for the Business Combination Proposal.

Cetus Capital may agree to waive, in whole or in part, some of the conditions to its obligations to consummate the Business Combination, to the extent permitted by applicable laws. The Cetus Board will evaluate the materiality of any waiver to determine whether amendment of this proxy statement/prospectus and resolicitation of proxies is warranted. In some instances, if the Cetus Board determines that a waiver is not sufficiently material to warrant resolicitation of stockholders, Cetus Capital has the discretion to consummate the Business Combination without seeking further stockholder approval.

For example, it is a condition to Cetus Capital’s obligations to consummate the Business Combination that there be no restraining order, injunction or other order restricting MKD Technology’s conduct of its business. However, if the Cetus Board determines that any such order or injunction is not material to the business of the Combined Company, then the Cetus Board may elect to waive that condition without stockholder approval and consummate the Business Combination.

58

As a further example, although it is a condition to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Business Combination that the initial listing application with respect to the securities of the Combined Company shall have been approved by Nasdaq, which approval is necessary for the PubCo Ordinary Shares to be listed on Nasdaq, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement may waive this condition. If this condition is waived and the Business Combination is consummated, then, following the Closing, the PubCo Ordinary Shares, including those received by the Public Stockholders in exchange for the Public Shares in the SPAC Merger, would not be listed on Nasdaq, but rather would be traded on the OTC Markets or another alternative listing platform, which could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of such shares and the ability of the holders of such shares to sell them.

Cetus Capital’s stockholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the Business Combination, and having a minority share position may reduce the influence that Cetus Capital’s current stockholders have on the management of Cetus Capital.

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, assuming no Public Shares are redeemed for cash, and assuming that MKD BVI owns a 62.36% equity interest in MKD Taiwan, the Public Stockholders will own approximately 15.7% of non-redeemable PubCo Ordinary Shares and the Sponsor will own approximately 9.2% of non-redeemable PubCo Ordinary Shares. Assuming redemption by holders of 1,029,467 Public Shares, and assuming that MKD BVI owns a 62.36% equity interest in MKD Taiwan, the Public Stockholders will own approximately 10.8% of non-redeemable PubCo Ordinary Shares and the Sponsor will own approximately 9.7% of non-redeemable PubCo Ordinary Shares. The minority position of Cetus Capital’s stockholders will give them limited influence over the management and operations of the Combined Company.

It is anticipated that, after giving effect to the Business Combination and to the issuance of (i) up to approximately 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to the MKD BVI shareholders immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination in connection with the Acquisition Merger assuming MKD BVI owns a 62.36% equity interest in MKD Taiwan and there are no further adjustments to the amount of consideration shares under the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) up to 4,789,454 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the Cetus Capital stockholders in connection with the SPAC Merger (assuming no Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights and an aggregate of 1,006,145 shares are issued upon conversion of the Cetus Rights); and (iii) an aggregate of 172,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares to EF Hutton (including 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement), and assuming that none of the Public Warrants or Private Warrants (or the PubCo Warrants that may be issued in exchange therefor) are exercised, the ownership interests in PubCo as the public company will be as set forth in the table below.

(1) | Assumes that holders of 1,029,467 Public Shares, or 50% of all Public Shares, exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
(2) | Assumes that the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented, and that holders of 1,409,540 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, leaving 649,394 Public Shares outstanding, which represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).
(3) | Assumes that the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and that holders of 2,058,934 Public Shares, or 100% of all Public Shares, exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.
(4) | Includes PubCo Ordinary Shares received upon exchange of shares of Cetus Common Stock received upon conversion of the Private Rights, but excludes PubCo Ordinary Shares underlying any Cetus Units that the Sponsor chooses to be repaid for any working capital or extension loans it has extended to Cetus Capital, assuming the Sponsor chooses to be repaid fully in cash for such loans.

Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares may continue to hold any Public Warrants they own, which results in additional dilution to non-redeeming holders upon exercise of the Public Warrants.

Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares may continue to hold any Public Warrants they owned prior to redemption, which results in additional dilution to non-redeeming holders upon exercise of such Public Warrants. Assuming (i) all redeeming Public Stockholders acquired Public Units in the IPO and continue to hold the Public Warrants that were included in the Public Units, and (ii) the redemption of all of the Public Shares by the Public Stockholders, 5,750,000 Public Warrants would be retained by redeeming Public Stockholders with a value of $172,500, based on the market price of $0.03 for the Public Warrants as of June 10, 2024. As a result, the redeeming Public Stockholders would recoup their entire investment and continue to hold Public Warrants with an aggregate market value of $172,500, while non-redeeming Public Stockholders would suffer additional dilution in their percentage ownership and voting interest of the Post-Combination Company upon exercise of the Public Warrants held by redeeming Public Stockholders.

The Combined Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash or raise sufficient funds from external investors to service all of its obligations and indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy obligations under its indebtedness, which may not be successful.

The Combined Company’s ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance its debt obligations will depend on its future operating performance and on economic, financial, competitive, legislative and other factors and any legal and regulatory restrictions on the payment of distributions and dividends to which the Combined Company and its subsidiaries may be subject. Many of these factors may be beyond the Combined Company’s control. The Combined Company cannot assure you that its business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated cost savings and operating improvements will be realized or that future borrowings will be available to the Combined Company in an amount sufficient to enable it to satisfy its obligations under its indebtedness or to fund its other needs. If the cash flows and capital resources of the Combined Company are insufficient to service its indebtedness, it may be forced to reduce or delay acquisitions, sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance its indebtedness. These alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit the Combined Company to meet its scheduled debt service obligations. The Combined Company’s ability to restructure or refinance its indebtedness will depend on the condition of the capital markets and its financial condition at such time. Any refinancing of its indebtedness could be at higher interest rates and may require it to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict the business operations of the Combined Company. In addition, the terms of any future debt agreements may restrict the Combined Company from adopting some of these alternatives. In the absence of such operating results and resources, the Combined Company could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet its debt service and other obligations. The Combined Company may not be able to consummate those dispositions for fair market value or at all. Furthermore, any proceeds that the Combined Company could realize from any such dispositions may not be adequate to meet its debt service obligations then due. The Combined Company’s inability to generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy its debt service or other obligations, or to refinance its indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, could have a material adverse effect on its business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.

In particular, the stockholders of Cetus Capital are being asked to approve the NTA Amendment Proposal, and if holders of an amount in excess of 1,409,540 Public Shares exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, the Combined Company may not have sufficient cash resources to pay estimated transaction fees and expenses, after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting). Cetus Capital will not however decline to honor any properly tendered redemptions but redemptions in excess of 1,409,540 Public Shares will be satisfied by other funds outside the Trust Account. There is no certainty that enough funds will be available, either from the internal working capital of the Combined Company, or from external sources, such as PIPE financing, to meet such redemption obligations. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information—Additional funding required under different redemption scenarios” for further discussions of the amounts of additional funding that may be required under different redemption scenarios.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements have been entered into with any PIPE investors to purchase new ordinary shares of PubCo. There is no certainty that any PIPE financing will be secured if required to meet any redemption requests. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in the PubCo’s proposed memorandum and articles of association that will become effective immediately prior to the completion of the Business Combination, as well as provisions of BVI law, could impair a takeover attempt.

In connection with the Business Combination, PubCo will adopt the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that will become effective immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. PubCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association will contain provisions to limit the ability of others to acquire control of PubCo or cause PubCo to engage in change-of-control transactions. These provisions could have the effect of depriving PubCo’s shareholders of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging third parties from seeking to obtain control of PubCo in a tender offer or similar transaction. For example, the PubCo Board will have the authority, subject to any resolution of the shareholders to the contrary, to issue preferred shares in one or more classes or series and to fix their designations, powers, preferences, privileges, and relative participating, optional or special rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights associated with PubCo Ordinary Shares. Preferred shares could be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control of PubCo or make removal of management more difficult. If the PubCo Board decides to issue preferred shares, the price of the ordinary shares of PubCo may fall and the voting and other rights of the holders of the ordinary shares of PubCo may be materially and adversely affected.

Activities taken by Cetus Capital’s affiliates to purchase, directly or indirectly, Public Shares will increase the likelihood of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals and may affect the market price of Cetus Capital’s securities.

The Sponsor or Cetus Capital’s executive officers, directors and advisors, or their respective affiliates, may purchase shares of Cetus Common Stock in privately negotiated transactions either prior to or following the consummation of the Business Combination. None of the Sponsor or Cetus Capital’s executive officers, directors and advisors, or their respective affiliates, will make any such purchases when such parties are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or during a restricted period under Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Although none of the Sponsor or Cetus Capital’s executive officers, directors and advisors, or their respective affiliates, currently anticipates paying any premium purchase price for such Public Shares, in the event such parties do, the payment of a premium may not be in the best interest of those stockholders not receiving any such additional consideration. There is no limit on the number of shares that could be acquired by the Sponsor or Cetus Capital’s executive officers, directors and advisors, or their respective affiliates, or the price such parties may pay.

60

If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be approved in circumstances where such approval could not otherwise be obtained. Purchases of shares of Cetus Common Stock by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals and would likely increase the chances that the Business Combination would be approved. If the market does not view the Business Combination positively, purchases of the Public Shares may have the effect of counteracting the market’s view, which would otherwise be reflected in a decline in the market price of Cetus Capital’s securities. In addition, the termination of the support provided by these purchases may materially adversely affect the market price of Cetus Capital’s securities.

As of the date of this proxy statement / prospectus, no agreements with respect to the private purchase of the Public Shares by the Sponsor or the persons described above have been entered into. However, in the event that the Sponsor or the persons described above were to purchase Public Shares from Public Stockholders, such purchases would by structured in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act, including, in pertinent part, through adherence to the following:

| ● | the registration statement or proxy statement filed in connection with the Business Combination would disclose the possibility that the Sponsor or the other persons described above will purchase Public Shares from Public Stockholders outside the redemption process described in this prospectus, along with the purpose of such purchases;
| ● | the price paid for the Public Shares is no higher than the price offered through the redemption process described in this prospectus;
| ● | the registration statement or proxy statement filed in connection with the Business Combination would include a representation that any of the Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor or the other persons described above from Public Stockholders outside the redemption process described in this prospectus would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination;
| ● | the Sponsor and the other persons described above do not possess any redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares or, if they possess such redemption rights, they have entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which they have waived such rights; and
| ● | Cetus Capital discloses in a Form 8-K to be filed prior to the holding of the stockholders’ meeting to approve the Business Combination the following material items:

| ○ | the number of the Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor and the other persons described above outside the redemption process described in this prospectus, along with the purchase price for such Public Shares;
| ○ | the purpose of the purchases of such Public Shares by the Sponsor and the other persons described above;
| ○ | the impact, if any, of the purchases of such Public Shares on the likelihood that the Business Combination will be approved and consummated;
| ○ | the identity of the selling shareholders who sold such Public Shares to the Sponsor and the other persons described above (if not purchased on the open market) or the nature of the selling shareholders (e.g., 5% security holders) who sold such Public Shares to the Sponsor and the other persons described above; and
| ○ | the number of Public Shares for which Cetus Capital has received redemption requests pursuant to its redemption offer.

If Cetus Capital is deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, it may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and its activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for Cetus Capital to complete its initial business combination.

If Cetus Capital is deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, its activities may be restricted, including:

| ● | restrictions on the nature of its investments; and
| ● | restrictions on the issuance of securities, each of which may make it difficult for Cetus Capital to complete its initial business combination.

In addition, Cetus Capital may have imposed upon it burdensome requirements, including:

| ● | registration as an investment company with the SEC;
| ● | adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and
| ● | reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations to which Cetus Capital is not currently subject.

In order not to be regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, unless Cetus Capital can qualify for an exclusion, it must ensure that it is engaged primarily in a business other than investing, reinvesting or trading in securities and that its activities do not include investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading “investment securities” constituting more than 40% of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. The business of Cetus Capital will be to identify and complete an initial business combination and thereafter to operate the post-transaction business or assets for the long term. Cetus Capital does not plan to buy businesses or assets with a view to resale or profit from their resale. Cetus Capital does not plan to buy unrelated businesses or assets or to be a passive investor.

On January 24, 2024, the SEC issued guidance, rather than adopt formal rules, with respect to determining whether a SPAC constitutes an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. The SEC chose not to adopt its initial proposed rule to provide a nonexclusive safe harbor from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act, reasoning that determination of investment company status was heavily fact-dependent. Instead, the SEC provided the following five factors as instructive in a SPAC’s analysis of whether it is an investment company: (1) the nature of the SPAC’s assets and income: A SPAC that holds only the sort of securities typically held by SPACs prior to the completion of the de-SPAC transaction – such as U.S. government securities, money market funds and cash items – and does not propose to acquire investment securities, would be less likely to be considered an investment company; (2) management: A SPAC appears more like an investment company if the officers, directors and employees of the SPAC did not actively seek a de-SPAC transaction or spent a considerable amount of their time actively managing the SPAC’s portfolio for the primary purpose of achieving investment returns; (3) duration: The longer a SPAC has been operating prior to entering into an agreement with a target company and completing the de-SPAC transaction, the more difficult it is to distinguish the SPAC from an investment company; (4) holding out: A SPAC is more likely to be an investment company if it markets itself in a manner that suggests that investors should invest in its securities primarily to gain exposure to its portfolio of securities prior to a de-SPAC transaction; (5) merger with an investment company: A SPAC is likely to be an investment company if it were to engage or propose to engage in a de-SPAC transaction with a target that meets the definition of investment company.

Based on its understanding of the Investment Company Act and related SEC rules and guidance, Cetus Capital does not believe that it would be deemed as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. To this end, the proceeds held in the Trust Account have only been invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. By restricting the investment of the proceeds to these instruments, and by having a business plan targeted at acquiring and growing businesses for the long term (rather than on buying and selling businesses in the manner of a merchant bank or private equity fund), Cetus Capital endeavors to avoid being deemed an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. If Cetus Capital does not invest the proceeds as discussed above, it may be deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act. If Cetus Capital were deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expenses for which Cetus Capital has not allotted funds and may hinder its ability to complete an initial business combination or may result in its liquidation. If Cetus Capital is found to be operating as an unregistered investment company, it may be required to liquidate the government securities in its Trust Account, change its operations, wind down its operations, or register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, which may materially hinder its ability to complete an initial business combination. If Cetus Capital is unable to complete it initial business combination, Public Stockholders will lose their investment opportunity in any potential target company and may receive only approximately $10.175 per share on the liquidation of the Trust Account (or less in certain circumstances), and the Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights will expire worthless.

Risks Related to the PubCo Ordinary Shares

The market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares is likely to be highly volatile, and you may lose some or all of your investment.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares is likely to be highly volatile and may be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including the following:

| ● | the Combined Company’s quarterly or annual earnings or those of other companies in its industry compared to market expectations;
| ● | the size of the Combined Company’s public float and market capitalization;
| ● | the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the PubCo Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq;
| ● | the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the Combined Company’s ability to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees;
| ● | coverage by or changes in financial estimates by securities or industry analysts or failure to meet their expectations;
| ● | changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
| ● | changes in senior management or key personnel;
| ● | changes in applicable laws or regulations;
| ● | risks relating to the uncertainty of the Combined Company’s projected financial information;
| ● | risks related to the organic and inorganic growth of the Combined Company’s business and the timing of expected business milestones;
| ● | the amount of redemption requests made by the stockholders of Cetus Capital; and
| ● | changes in general market, economic and political conditions in the United States and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural disasters, terrorist attacks, acts of war and responses to such events.

In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry factors, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may negatively affect the market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares, regardless of the Combined Company’s actual operating performance. Furthermore, due to their cost of acquiring the Founder Shares being significantly less than the effective price per share of Cetus Common Stock paid by investors in the IPO, the ability of the Initial Stockholders to sustain the negative effects of any such volatility will be much greater than such investors in the IPO or investors that acquired Cetus Common Stock in the open market following the consummation of the IPO.

Volatility in the Combined Company’s stock price could subject the Combined Company to securities class action litigation.

In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against a company following a decline in the market price of its securities. If the Combined Company faces such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could harm its business.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about the Combined Company, or publish negative reports, the Combined Company’s stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about the Combined Company. The Combined Company does not have any control over these analysts. If the Combined Company’s financial performance fails to meet analyst estimates or one or more of the analysts who cover the Combined Company downgrade the PubCo Ordinary Shares or change their opinion, the Combined Company’s stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of the Combined Company or fail to regularly publish reports on the Combined Company, it could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause the Combined Company’s stock price or trading volume to decline.

Because the Combined Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future, capital appreciation, if any, would be your sole source of gain.

The Combined Company currently anticipates that it will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of its business and does not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the near future. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of the PubCo Ordinary Shares would be your sole source of gain on an investment in the PubCo Ordinary Shares in the near future.

The future sales of shares by the Combined Company’s shareholders and future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares.

Sales of a substantial number of PubCo Ordinary Shares in the public market could occur at any time. If the Combined Company’s shareholders sell, or the market perceives that such shareholders intend to sell, substantial amounts of the PubCo Ordinary Shares in the public market, the market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares could decline.

The holders of the Founder Shares, the Private Units and any working capital loans or extension loans made to Cetus Capital, as well as EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. At any time subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination, the holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that such securities be registered. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination. The presence of these additional securities trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of the PubCo Ordinary Shares.

62

The Combined Company is an emerging growth company, and the Combined Company cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make the PubCo Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company will be an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as the Combined Company continues to be an emerging growth company, it may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation 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. The Combined Company will remain an emerging growth company for the first five fiscal years after its listing, unless one of the following occurs: (i) its total annual gross revenues are $1.235 billion or more, (ii) it has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the past three years or (iii) it becomes a “large accelerated filer,” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 12b-2.

In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Combined Company has elected to avail itself of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, the Combined Company will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Even after the Combined Company no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, it may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” which would allow it to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements including exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this proxy statement/prospectus and the Combined Company’s periodic reports and proxy statements.

The Combined Company cannot predict if investors will find the Combined Company’s common stock less attractive because the Combined Company may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the PubCo Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the PubCo Ordinary Shares and its market price may be more volatile.

Subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations and stock price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

Although Cetus Capital has conducted due diligence on MKD Technology, Cetus Capital cannot assure you that this diligence revealed all material issues that may be present in its business, that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of the control of Cetus Capital or MKD Technology will not later arise. As a result, Cetus Capital may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure its operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in losses. Even if Cetus Capital’s due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with Cetus Capital’s preliminary risk analysis. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and may not have an immediate impact on Cetus Capital’s liquidity, the fact that Cetus Capital reports charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about the Combined Company’s securities. In addition, charges of this nature may cause the Combined Company to be unable to obtain future financing on favorable terms or at all.

A market for the Combined Company’s securities may not continue, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of its securities.

Following the Business Combination, the price of the Combined Company’s securities may fluctuate significantly due to the market’s reaction to the Business Combination and general market and economic conditions. An active trading market for the Combined Company’s securities following the Business Combination may never develop or, if developed, it may not be sustained. In addition, the price of the Combined Company’s securities after the Business Combination can vary due to general economic conditions and forecasts, the Combined Company’s general business condition and the release of the Combined Company’s financial reports. Additionally, if the Combined Company’s securities are not listed on, or become delisted from, Nasdaq for any reason, and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of the Combined Company’s securities may be more limited than if the Combined Company were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established or sustained.

The Cetus Board members have interests that may be different from or in addition to your interests as a stockholder. See “The Business Combination — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus for further information.

Record Date; Who is Entitled to Vote

Cetus Capital has fixed the close of business on June 11, 2024, as the record date for determining those Cetus Capital stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting. As of the close of business on June 11, 2024, and after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, there were 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each holder of Cetus Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory Director Election Proposal, the NTA Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. As of June 11, 2024, the Sponsor and EF Hutton collectively own and are entitled to vote 1,781,875 shares of Cetus Common Stock, or approximately 46.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock. With respect to the Business Combination, the Sponsor and EF Hutton, who collectively own approximately 46.4% of the outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date, have agreed to vote their Cetus Common Stock acquired by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Each of the Sponsor and EF Hutton has indicated that it intends to vote its shares, as applicable, “FOR” the other Proposals, although there is no agreement in place with respect to the other Proposals.

Quorum and Required Vote for the Proposals

A quorum of Cetus Capital stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Special Meeting if a majority of the shares of capital stock issued and outstanding as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is represented in person or by proxy. A Cetus Capital stockholder present in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting at the Special Meeting will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but broker non-votes will not.

Approval of each of the Proposals will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting; provided, that approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and approval of the NTA amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Attending the Special Meeting either in person or by proxy and abstaining from voting will have the same effect as voting against all the Proposals and, assuming a quorum is present, broker non-votes will have no effect on the voting on Proposals.

Voting Your Shares

Each share of Cetus Common Stock that you own in your name entitles you to one vote for each Proposal on which such shares are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Your proxy card shows the number of shares of Cetus Common Stock that you own.

There are two ways to ensure that your shares of Cetus Common Stock are voted at the Special Meeting:

| ● | You can cause your shares to be voted by signing and returning the enclosed proxy card. If you submit your proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted, as recommended by the Cetus Board, “FOR” the adoption of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory Director Election Proposal, the NTA Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Special Meeting will not be counted.
| ● | You can attend the Special Meeting in a virtual meeting format at https://www.cstproxy.com/cetuscapitalacquisition/sm2024. Stockholders will NOT be able to attend the Special Meeting in person. If you wish to access the Special Meeting telephonically (listen-only), you may do so within the U.S. and Canada by dialing 1-800-450-7155 (toll-free) and outside the U.S. and Canada by dialing 1-857-999-9155 (standard rates apply), and by using the following conference identification number: 2682805. This proxy statement includes instructions on how to access the virtual Special Meeting and how to listen and vote from home or any remote location with Internet connectivity. However, if your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee, you must get a proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way Cetus Capital can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.

65

IF YOU RETURN YOUR PROXY CARD WITHOUT AN INDICATION OF HOW YOU WISH TO VOTE, YOUR SHARES WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL AND THE OTHER PROPOSALS. IN ORDER TO REDEEM YOUR SHARES, YOU MUST TENDER YOUR SHARES TO OUR TRANSFER AGENT AT LEAST TWO BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE SPECIAL MEETING. YOU MAY TENDER YOUR SHARES FOR REDEMPTION BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR STOCK CERTIFICATE TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR SHARES ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC SYSTEM. IF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION IS NOT COMPLETED, THEN THESE TENDERED SHARES WILL NOT BE REDEEMED FOR CASH AND WILL BE RETURNED TO THE APPLICABLE STOCKHOLDER. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BROKER OR BANK TO WITHDRAW THE SHARES FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

Revoking Your Proxy

If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:

| ● | you may send another proxy card with a later date;
| ● | if you are a record holder, you may notify Cetus Capital’s proxy solicitor, Advantage Proxy, Inc., in writing before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or
| ● | you may attend the Special Meeting in virtual meeting format, revoke your proxy, and vote your shares, as indicated above.

Who Can Answer Your Questions About Voting Your Shares?

If you have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your shares of Cetus Common Stock, you may our proxy solicitor. For more information, see the section titled “How to Obtain Additional Information” in this proxy statement/prospectus.

No Additional Matters May Be Presented at the Special Meeting

This Special Meeting has been called only to consider the approval of the Proposals.

Appraisal Rights

Pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, holders of Cetus Common Stock (including beneficial owners) that do not deliver a written consent approving the Business Combination Proposal have the right to seek appraisal of the fair value of their shares of Cetus Common Stock, as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery, if the Business Combination is completed.

To exercise appraisal rights, holders of Cetus Common Stock (including beneficial owners seeking to exercise their appraisal rights) must strictly comply with the procedures prescribed by the DGCL. These procedures are summarized in the section entitled “Appraisal Rights — Appraisal Rights of Cetus Capital Stockholders.” Moreover, due to the complexity of the procedures for exercising and perfecting the right to seek appraisal, Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners that are considering exercising and perfecting that right are encouraged to seek the advice of legal counsel. Failure to strictly comply with these provisions will result in a loss of the right of appraisal or dissent.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to the Existing Charter, a holder of Cetus Common Stock has the right to have its public shares redeemed for cash equal to its pro rata share of the Trust Account (net of taxes payable) in connection with the Business Combination.

If you are a public stockholder and you seek to have your shares redeemed, you must (i) demand, no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on July 5, 2024 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting), that Cetus Capital redeem your shares into cash; and (ii) submit your request in writing to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent, at the address listed at the end of this section and deliver your shares to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent physically or electronically using the DWAC system at least two (2) business days prior to the vote at the Special Meeting. In order to validly request redemption, you must send a request in writing to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent. The request must be signed by the applicable stockholder in order to validly request redemption. A stockholder is not required to submit a proxy card or vote in order to validly exercise redemption rights.

You may tender the Cetus Common Stock for which you are electing redemption by two (2) business days before the Special Meeting by either:

| ● | Delivering certificates representing the shares of Cetus Common Stock to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent, or
| ● | Delivering the Cetus Common Stock electronically through the DWAC system.

Cetus Capital Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a full pro rata share of the Trust Account (currently anticipated to be approximately $10.79 per share, based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024 and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals).

66

Any corrected or changed written demand of redemption rights must be received by Cetus Capital’s transfer agent no later than two (2) business days prior to the Special Meeting. No demand for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent at least two (2) business days prior to the vote at the Special Meeting.

Public stockholders may seek to have their shares redeemed regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination and whether or not they are holders of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date. Any public stockholder who holds Cetus Common Stock on or before July 5, 2024 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, at the consummation of the Business Combination. If you choose to deliver Cetus Common Stock electronically through the DWAC system, this electronic delivery process can be accomplished by contacting your broker and requesting delivery of your shares through the DWAC system. Delivering shares physically may take significantly longer. In order to obtain a physical stock certificate, a stockholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC, and Cetus Capital’s transfer agent will need to act together to facilitate this request. There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker this cost and the broker would determine whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. It is Cetus Capital’s understanding that Cetus Capital stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. Cetus Capital does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, and it may take longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate. Cetus Capital stockholders who request physical stock certificates and wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for tendering their shares before exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.

In the event that a stockholder tenders its shares and decides prior to the consummation of the Business Combination that it no longer wants to redeem its shares, the stockholder may withdraw the tender. In the event that a stockholder tenders shares and the Business Combination is not completed, these shares will not be redeemed for cash and the physical certificates representing these shares will be returned to the stockholder promptly following the determination that the Business Combination will not be consummated. Cetus Capital anticipates that a stockholder who tenders shares for redemption in connection with the vote to approve the Business Combination would receive payment of the redemption price for such shares soon after the completion of the Business Combination.

If properly demanded by Cetus Capital public stockholders, Cetus Capital will redeem each share into a pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the Business Combination. Based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, this would amount to approximately $10.79 per share, without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. If you exercise your redemption rights, you will be exchanging your Cetus Common Stock for cash and will no longer own the shares. If Cetus Capital is unable to complete the Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, it will liquidate and dissolve and public stockholders would be entitled to receive approximately $10.79 per share upon such liquidation, based upon the amount available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024 and without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals.

Holders of outstanding Cetus Units must separate the underlying Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Common Stock. If Cetus Units are registered in a holder’s own name, the holder must deliver the certificate for its Cetus Units to the transfer agent with written instructions to separate the Cetus Units into their individual component parts. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the certificates back to the holder so that the holder may then exercise his, her or its redemption rights upon the separation of the Cetus Common Stock from the Cetus Units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds Cetus Units for an individual or entity (such individual or entity, the “beneficial owner”), the beneficial owner must instruct such nominee to separate the beneficial owner’s Cetus Units into their individual component parts. The beneficial owner’s nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to the transfer agent. Such written instructions must include the number of Cetus Units to be separated and the nominee holding such Cetus Units. The beneficial owner’s nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC system, a withdrawal of the relevant Cetus Units and a deposit of an equal number of shares of Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the nominee to exercise the beneficial owner’s redemption rights upon the separation of the Cetus Common Stock from the Cetus Units. While this is typically done electronically the same business day, beneficial owners should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If beneficial owners fail to cause their Cetus Common Stock to be separated in a timely manner, they will likely not be able to exercise their redemption rights.

67

Tendering Common Stock Certificates in connection with Redemption Rights

Cetus Capital is requiring the Cetus Capital public stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name,” to either tender their certificates to Cetus Capital’s transfer agent, or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System, at the holder’s option at least two (2) business days prior to the Special Meeting. There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC System. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker this cost and it would be up to the broker whether to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. However, this fee would be incurred regardless of whether Cetus Capital requires holders seeking to exercise redemption rights to tender their ordinary shares. The need to deliver ordinary shares is a requirement of exercising redemption rights regardless of the timing of when such delivery must be effectuated.

Any request for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to the business day immediately preceding the consummation of the proposed Business Combination. Furthermore, if a stockholder delivered his certificate for redemption and subsequently decided prior to the date immediately preceding the consummation of the proposed Business Combination not to elect redemption, he may simply request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

A redemption payment will only be made in the event that the proposed Business Combination is consummated. If the proposed Business Combination is not completed for any reason, then public stockholders who exercised their redemption rights would not be entitled to receive the redemption payment. In such case, Cetus Capital will promptly return the share certificates to the public stockholder.

Proxies and Proxy Solicitation Costs

Cetus Capital is soliciting proxies on behalf of the Cetus Board. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone or in person. Cetus Capital and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other electronic means. Any solicitation made and information provided in such a solicitation will be consistent with the written proxy statement/prospectus and proxy card. Advantage Proxy, Inc., a proxy solicitation firm that Cetus Capital has engaged to assist it in soliciting proxies, will be paid its customary fee and out-of-pocket expenses.

Cetus Capital will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward its proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions. Cetus Capital will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

If you send in your completed proxy card, you may still vote your shares in person if you revoke your proxy before it is exercised at the Special Meeting.

68

PROPOSAL NO. 1
THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL

The discussion in this proxy statement/prospectus of the Business Combination and the principal terms of the Business Combination Agreement, is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Business Combination Agreement. The full text of the Business Combination Agreement, and of each of the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum thereto, are attached hereto as Annexes A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5 and A-6, respectively, which are incorporated by reference herein.

General Description of the Business Combination and Business Combination Agreement

The Business Combination Agreement

On June 20, 2023, Cetus Capital entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan corporation with registration number 28408583 (“MKD Taiwan”), MKDWELL Limited, a company incorporated in the BVI with BVI Company Number 2121160 (“MKD BVI”), and Ming-Chia Huang, in his capacity as the representative of the shareholders of MKD Taiwan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”), pursuant to which, among other things: (A) the Shareholders’ Representative will incorporate a BVI business company (“PubCo”) for the purpose of serving as the public listed company whose shares shall be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which company shall initially be owned by the Shareholders’ Representative; (B) PubCo will incorporate a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”) for the sole purpose of merging with and into MKD BVI (the “Acquisition Merger”) with MKD BVI being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo; (C) PubCo will also incorporate a BVI business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2”) for the sole purpose of the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “SPAC Merger”, and together with the Acquisition Merger, the “Mergers”; and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement being collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”), in which SPAC will be the surviving entity; (D) MKD BVI and Merger Sub 1 will effect the Acquisition Merger; and (E) the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo will be a publicly traded holding company listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market. As used herein, the “Combined Company” refers to PubCo and its consolidated subsidiaries after the consummation of the Business Combination.

PubCo was incorporated in the BVI on July 25, 2023 under the name MKDWELL Tech Inc. and became a party to the Business Combination Agreement on July 31, 2023. Merger Sub 1 was incorporated in the BVI on August 1, 2023 under the name MKDMerger1 Inc. and became a party to the Business Combination Agreement on August 10, 2023. Merger Sub 2 was incorporated in the BVI on August 1, 2023 under the name MKDMerger2 Inc. and became a party to the Business Combination Agreement on August 10, 2023.

On July 31, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a First Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which (A) MKDWELL Tech Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to PubCo thereunder and (B) the parties agreed to extend the date by which PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 must execute an addendum to become parties to the Business Combination Agreement from July 31, 2023 to August 20, 2023.

On August 10, 2023, MKDMerger1 Inc. and MKDMerger2 Inc. each executed and delivered a Second Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which (A) MKDMerger1 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 1 thereunder and (B) MKDMerger2 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 2 thereunder.

On October 31, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $575,000 into the Trust Account in connection with the extension of the Business Combination Period from November 3, 2023 to February 3, 2024. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”). The First MKD Loan is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI containing substantially the same terms as the Extension Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the First MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 575,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor.

On November 19, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Third Addendum of the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from November 3, 2023 to February 1, 2024.

69

On December 14, 2023, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, the members of the Cetus Board (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor and EF Hutton, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the Business Combination Period, including but not limited to those shares of Cetus Common Stock pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

On January 31, 2024, Cetus Capital held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of Cetus Capital approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Cetus Capital must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Cetus Board (the “2024 Extension”). Cetus Capital implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension. In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused five additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $250,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for five additional one month periods, until July 3, 2024. These deposits were made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Sponsor Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “Second MKD Loan”). The Second MKD Loan is evidenced by a note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 containing substantially the same terms as the Sponsor Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the Second MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 300,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor (the “Pledged Shares”). In addition, the Sponsor and Cetus Capital entered into a Stock Pledge Agreement with respect to the pledge of the Pledged Shares.

On February 1, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fourth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from February 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024.

On April 30, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from April 30, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement

On April 24, 2024, Cetus Capital, EF Hutton, MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo (MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo being collectively referred to as the “MKD Parties”) entered into the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, EF Hutton waived $862,500 of the $1,725,000 cash deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”) that would otherwise be immediately due and payable to it pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated January 31, 2023 by and between Cetus Capital and EF Hutton upon the closing of the Business Combination, accepting in lieu thereof (i) a one-time cash payment of $862,500 on or before the closing of the Business Combination and (ii) the issuance of 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares at $10.00 per share on or before the closing of the Business Combination.

The Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement also provides that, within sixty (60) days of the closing of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall cause the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement to be registered under the Securities Act.

If the aggregate volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares that EF Hutton holds as a result of the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, as of the effectiveness date of the registration statement for such Ordinary Shares, is lower than $1,150,000 (the “Original Aggregate Share Value”) (the difference between the VWAP value on such date and the Original Aggregate Share Value, the “Difference in Amount”), then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares at a new value of Ordinary Shares (the “New Share Price”) in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on the effectiveness date of the registration statement. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties and/or their successors in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton the Difference in Amount by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the effectiveness date of the registration statement, subject to a maximum of 200,000 new PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued.

If the date that is five (5) trading days prior to the day the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction & Discharge Agreement are eligible for release pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the aggregate VWAP value of such PubCo Ordinary Shares is lower than the Original Aggregate Share Value, then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successor in interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares at the New Share Price in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on such date. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties, or their successor in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton for the Difference in Amount by issuing additional PubCo Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price of such additional PubCo Ordinary Shares shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the end of the twelve-month month period immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, subject to a maximum of 200,000 new PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued.

Consideration

As a result of the Business Combination, among other things, (i) all outstanding ordinary shares of MKD BVI will be cancelled in exchange for up to approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares, (ii) each outstanding Cetus Unit will be automatically detached, (iii) each unredeemed outstanding share of Cetus Common Stock will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, (iv) every six (6) outstanding Cetus Rights will be contributed in exchange for one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share, cancelled and cease to exist, and (v) each warrant to purchase one (1) share of Cetus Common Stock (the “Cetus Warrants”) will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for a warrant to purchase one (1) PubCo Ordinary Share (the “PubCo Warrants”).

Up to a maximum of approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the total number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that will be issued to MKD BVI shareholders is “the sum of the Aggregate Merger Consideration less the amount of Closing Company Debt, plus the amount of Closing Company Cash, in each case, as reflected on the Closing Statement, such sum being then MULTIPLIED by the percentage of equity interest of the Company which MKD BVI directly or indirectly owns as of the Closing Date, and then DIVIDED by $10.” As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns 17,011,476 of the 27,278,652 issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan, or approximately 62.36%. The “Aggregate Merger Consideration” means $230,000,000 as stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement. Assuming no further adjustments result from the “Closing Company Debt” and the “Closing Company Cash,” and assuming that MKD BVI continues to own 62.36% of the equity interest of MKD Taiwan on the closing date of the Business Combination, an aggregate of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI.

The Closing

Cetus Capital and MK Taiwan have agreed that the Closing shall occur no later than November 3, 2023, which date was extended to June 30, 2024 pursuant to the Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Termination Date”).

Representations and Warranties

In the Business Combination Agreement, MKD Taiwan makes certain representations and warranties (with certain exceptions set forth in the disclosure schedule to the Business Combination Agreement) relating to, among other things: (a) the corporate organization and existence of each of MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo, and each of their respective subsidiaries, and similar corporate matters; (b) due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of the Business Combination Agreement and the other transaction documents; (c) no conflicts with organizational documents, laws, material contracts and other instruments; (d) receipt of necessary consents, approvals and authorizations; (e) capitalization; (f) financial statements; (g) undisclosed liabilities; (h) litigation and proceedings; (i) compliance with laws; (j) intellectual property; (k) material contracts; (l) employee benefit plans; (m) labor matters; (n) taxes; (o) brokers’ fees; (p) insurance; (q) real property; (r) environmental matters; (s) absence of changes; (t) related party transactions; (u) internal controls; (v) permits; (w) accuracy of information provided for inclusion in this proxy statement/prospectus; (x) operation of the business during COVID-19; (y) books and records; (z) sufficiency of assets; (aa) top suppliers and top customers; and (bb) no additional representations and warranties.

Covenants Pending Closing – Conduct Prior to Closing

In the Business Combination Agreement, MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries agreed to operate their respective business in the ordinary course, consistent with past practices, prior to the Closing of the Business Combination (with certain exceptions) and not to take certain specified actions without the prior written consent of Cetus Capital.

Covenants Pending Closing – Payment of Extension Fees

In the Business Combination Agreement, the parties agreed that if Cetus Capital anticipates that it may not be able to consummate the Business Combination on or prior to the then-applicable deadline for completing an initial business combination, Cetus Capital may request that the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan deposit (or cause to be deposited) in the Trust Account on or prior to such deadline an amount equal to $575,000 with respect to each three (3) month extension period contemplated by the Existing Charter. Each such deposit shall be deemed to be a loan by the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (or their designee) to Cetus Capital, bearing interest at a rate of 5.27% per annum, and shall be evidenced by a promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the applicable lender.

Where the reason for requiring an extension is due to reasons solely attributable to that on the part of or within the sole control of either the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan, then the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (as the case may be) shall be solely responsible for the full amount of each such extension loan. Where the reason for requiring an extension is due to reasons attributable to both the Sponsor and MKD Taiwan, the Sponsor and MKD Taiwan shall each share equally in the amount for an extension loan. All such extension loans shall immediately be repaid by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (as the case may be) upon the earlier of the Closing or the expiry of the deadline for the consummation of Cetus Capital’s initial business combination.

71

Covenants Pending Closing – Taiwan Reorganization

In the Business Combination Agreement, MKD Taiwan agreed that it would, promptly following the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, effect a reorganization, whereby the Shareholders’ Representative would form PubCo, and whereby, following the formation of PubCo, PubCo would form Merger Sub 1 for the sole purpose of the Acquisition Merger and Merger Sub 2 for the sole purpose of the SPAC Merger. In the Business Combination Agreement, it was also agreed that (x) MKD BVI would directly or indirectly acquire at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MKD Taiwan and (y) MKD BVI shall acquire any shares of MKDWELL (Jiaxing) Electronic Technology Ltd. that are not directly or indirectly owned by MKD Taiwan (the “Taiwan Reorganization”).

In the Business Combination Agreement, MKD Taiwan agreed that, during the period from the date of the Business Combination Agreement through the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, MKC Taiwan shall not, and shall cause its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates (including for this purpose commonly Controlled Affiliates and Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate, seek, encourage or support any inquiry, proposal or offer from, furnish any information to, or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than Cetus Capital and its Subsidiaries and Representatives) regarding any Acquisition Proposal, (b) enter into, continue with or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any person (other than Cetus Capital and its Subsidiaries and Representatives) concerning a possible Acquisition Proposal or (c) enter into any agreements or other instruments (whether or not binding) regarding an Acquisition Proposal. During the period from the date of the Business Combination Agreement through the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, upon receipt by MKD Taiwan or any of its commonly Controlled Affiliates of any offer, proposal, indication of interest, request or inquiry that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, MKD Taiwan shall within one (1) Business Day (i) notify Cetus Capital in writing of its receipt of such Acquisition Proposal and (ii) communicate to Cetus Capital in writing in reasonable detail the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (including providing Cetus Capital with a written statement with respect to any non-written Acquisition Proposal received, which statement must include the terms thereof). In addition, MKD Taiwan will within one (1) Business Day advise Cetus Capital in writing of any material modification or proposed modification to such Acquisition Proposal and any other information necessary to keep Cetus Capital informed in all material respects regarding the status and details of such Acquisition Proposal.

However, if Cetus Capital terminates the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to items (vi) or (vii) above, then, promptly (and in any event within twenty (20) business days) after such termination, MKD Taiwan shall reimburse Cetus Capital for any and all reasonable costs and expenses with proof of invoice (including legal and accounting fees and expenses) incurred by Cetus Capital in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

| ● | any inaccuracy in or breach of any MKD Taiwan Fundamental Representation, as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent they refer to another date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such other date);

| ● | any claims made by MKD BVI Shareholders in their capacities as such in respect of the allocation of the Closing Date Share Merger Consideration, or for any events, facts or circumstances occurring at or prior to the Closing;

75

The indemnification obligations of MKD Taiwan are subject to limitations, including the following:

| ● | MKD Taiwan shall not be liable to the Cetus Indemnitees for indemnification under the Business Combination Agreement, except in the case of Fraud by MKD Taiwan, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under the Business Combination Agreement exceeds $250,000, in which event MKD Taiwan shall be liable for all such Losses in excess of such amount (but subject to the other limitations contained in the Business Combination Agreement).
| ● | Except in the case of Fraud by MKD Taiwan, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Business Combination Agreement, in no event shall MKD Taiwan be liable to the Cetus Indemnitees for Losses in respect of indemnification under the Business Combination Agreement that exceed $5,000,000.
| ● | The determination of the amount of Loss arising from (but not the existence of any inaccuracy in or breach of) any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, material adverse effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.
| ● | Payments by MKD Taiwan in fulfillment of its indemnification obligations in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Cetus Indemnitee in respect of any such claim, and each Cetus Indemnitee shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to recover all amounts payable from an insurer or other third party under any such insurance policy or contract.

The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement, and of the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum thereto, describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement and each of the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum thereto, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and each of the First Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum, the Fourth Addendum and the Fifth Addendum thereto, which are attached hereto as Annexes A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5 and A-6, respectively.

Additional Agreements Executed at the Signing of the Business Combination Agreement

Lock-Up Agreements

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, and as a condition thereto, the directors and officers of PubCo as of the Closing, all shareholders who hold more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding equity securities of PubCo as of the Closing and the Sponsor will enter into lock-up agreements with PubCo (the “Lock-up Agreements”). Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreements, the shareholders party thereto will not, during the 180 day period following the Closing (the “Lock-Up Period”), and subject to certain exceptions, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Lock-Up Shares (as defined below), or enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, or otherwise publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any short sales with respect to such shares. “Lock-Up Shares” means any of the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Acquisition Merger or the SPAC Merger, as applicable, as well as any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the right to receive, Cetus Common Stock or PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired during the Lock-Up Period, other than PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired in open market transactions during the Lock-Up Period.

The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreements does not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual agreements, a form of which is included as Exhibit A to the Business Combination Agreement and as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.

76

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

At the Closing, PubCo, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, EF Hutton and certain other holders of the securities of Cetus Capital will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, PubCo will agree to provide such holders with certain rights relating to the registration for resale of certain PubCo Ordinary Shares held by such holders at, or acquired by such holders in connection with, the Closing of the Business Combination. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement will provide certain demand and piggyback registration rights to the applicable shareholders, subject to underwriter cutbacks and issuer blackout periods. PubCo will agree to pay certain fees and expenses relating to registrations under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual agreement, a form of which is included as Exhibit D to the Business Combination Agreement and as Exhibit 10.2, and incorporated herein by reference. PubCo also agreed to register the resale of the PubCo Ordinary Shares that may be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement.

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

Certain of Cetus Capital’s directors and executive officers may be deemed to have interests in the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement that are different from, or in addition to, those of Cetus Capital’s shareholders generally. These interests may present these individuals with certain potential conflicts of interest. Our independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during their evaluation and negotiation of the Business Combination and in unanimously approving, as members of the Cetus Board, the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Business Combination. The Cetus Board concluded that the potential benefits that it expected Cetus Capital and its shareholders to achieve as a result of the Business Combination outweighed the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination.

Although none of the directors or officers of Cetus Capital or Cetus Sponsor have an interest in MKD Taiwan, when Cetus Capital shareholders consider the recommendation of the Cetus Board in favor of adoption of the Business Combination Proposal and the other related Proposals, they should keep in mind that Cetus Capital’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, their interests as shareholders, including the following:

| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will be required to liquidate. In such event, the 1,437,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor, which were acquired prior to the IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, will be worthless. Such shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $15.3 million based on the closing price of Cetus Common Stock of $10.63 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;
| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is not completed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, the 286,875 Private Units purchased by the Sponsor for a total purchase price of $2,868,750, will be worthless. Such Private Units had an aggregate market value of approximately $3.0 million based on the closing price of Cetus Unit of $10.60 on Nasdaq as of June 7, 2024;
| ● | The exercise of Cetus Capital’s directors’ and officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the transaction may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in Cetus Capital’s stockholders’ best interest;
| ● | Cetus Capital’s officers and directors, the Sponsor and its affiliates will be reimbursed for any reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on Cetus Capital’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations (including the Business Combination). As of June 7, 2024, an aggregate of $0 had been incurred or accrued in respect of such expense reimbursement obligation;
| ● | In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Cetus Capital’s insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan Cetus Capital funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. If Cetus Capital completes a Business Combination, Cetus Capital may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, Cetus Capital may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete an initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into private units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. These private units would be identical to the Private Units. As of June 7, 2024, the Sponsor loaned to Cetus Capital an aggregate of approximately $1.0 million, which amount remains unpaid as of such date;
| ● | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to shareholders rather than liquidate; and
| ● | If the proposed Business Combination is completed, there will be five members of the PubCo Board, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate up to five (5) members (who have been determined to be Ming-Chia Huang, Ming-Chao Huang, and Chih-Hsiang Tang) and with the Sponsor having the right to designate up to two (2) members (who shall be Chung-Yi Sun and Jung-Te Chang). MKD Taiwan has not determined the identities of its two remaining nominees the appointment of which will not be considered at the special meeting of stockholders of Cetus Capital.

Because of the existence of these interests, the exercise of the discretion of the directors and officers of Cetus Capital in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the transaction may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes or waivers are appropriate and in the best interest of the Cetus Capital stockholders. In addition to the foregoing, Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation excludes the corporate opportunity doctrine, and any other analogous doctrine, from applying to directors and officers of Cetus Capital unless such corporate opportunity is offered to a director or officer solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Cetus Capital and such opportunity is one Cetus Capital is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for Cetus Capital to pursue. The potential conflict of interest relating to the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine in Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation did not impact its search for an acquisition target and Cetus Capital was not prevented from reviewing any opportunities as a result of such waiver.

77

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Cetus Capital will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the current shareholders of MKD BVI having a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, MKD Taiwan senior management comprising all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of MKD Taiwan and MKD BVI compared to Cetus Capital, and MKD Taiwan / MKD BVI operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MKD BVI issuing stock for the net assets of Cetus Capital, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Cetus Capital will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MKD Taiwan / MKD BVI.

Regulatory Approvals

The Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are not subject to any additional U.S. federal or state regulatory requirements or approvals, or any regulatory requirements or approvals under the laws of the BVI, except for the registration by the Registrar of Corporate Affairs in the BVI of the Plans of Merger and subsequent issue of the Certificates of Merger.

Background of the Business Combination

The terms of the Business Combination are the result of negotiations between Cetus Capital and its representatives, on the one hand, and MKD Taiwan and its representatives, on the other hand. The following is a brief description of the background of these negotiations and the resulting Business Combination.

Cetus Capital is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on June 7, 2022. Cetus Capital was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Cetus Capital’s intention was to capitalize on the deal sourcing, investing and operating expertise of Cetus Capital’s management team to identify and combine with one or more businesses with high growth potential.

On February 3, 2023, Cetus Capital consummated the IPO of 5,750,000 Public Units, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Public Units granted to the underwriters. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Cetus Capital consummated the private placement with the Sponsor of 286,875 Private Units, generating total proceeds of $2,868,750, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to Private Units at $10.00 per unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. Each Public Unit and each Private Unit consists of one share of Cetus Common Stock, one redeemable warrant entitling its holder to purchase one share of Cetus Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share of Cetus Common Stock upon the consummation of the business combination. Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, Cetus Capital issued 57,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock to EF Hutton for nominal consideration.

The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If Cetus Capital does not complete a Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business 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), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

Upon closing of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $58,506,250 ($10.175 per Public Unit) was placed in a Trust Account with CST acting as trustee and can be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial business combination and the liquidation due to Cetus Capital’s failure to complete a business combination within the applicable period of time.

78

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, neither Cetus Capital, nor anyone on its behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with Cetus Capital. After the IPO, Cetus Capital’s officers and directors commenced an active search for prospective businesses or assets to acquire in an initial business combination. Representatives of Cetus Capital were contacted by, and representatives of Cetus Capital contacted, several individuals, financial advisors and other entities who offered to present ideas for business combination opportunities, and in certain cases discussions were held with such persons. Certain of Cetus Capital’s officers and directors also, directly or indirectly, brought to Cetus Capital’s attention target business candidates. In all, prior to the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, representatives of Cetus Capital evaluated approximately five potential target businesses. Cetus Capital executed three non-disclosure agreements during the course of the process, including a non-disclosure agreement with MKD Taiwan. As part of the process of searching for a business combination target, on February 10, 2023, Cetus Capital engaged ARC Group to act as its financial advisor. Below is a summary list of the potential target businesses with which Cetus Capital entered into a non-disclosure agreement (other than MKD Taiwan) and the reasons Cetus Capital did not pursue a business combination with them:

| ● | Target No. 1: In February 2023, Cetus Capital was introduced to an early-stage electric vehicle company that was founded in Taiwan, and on February 24, 2023, Cetus Capital entered into a non-disclosure agreement with such potential target and requested a company profile and financial information. However, after preliminary discussion and analysis, Cetus Capital determined not to pursue further discussions because (x) the business of the potential target company was still in its early stages, which increases the risk of future business development, and (y) the potential target’s management and operations team had not yet been fully assembled.
| ● | Target No. 2: In March 2023, Cetus Capital was introduced to a Taiwan-based optical technology company with rich experience and extensive knowledge in customization design and supply of optical components, ad on February 24, 2023, Cetus Capital entered into a non-disclosure agreement with such potential target and requested a company profile and financial information. However, following discussion and analysis and further communications with the potential target, Cetus Capital determined not to pursue further discussions because (x) although the management team of the potential target had extensive experience and knowledge in the custom design and supply of optical components, it did not have the same experience and knowledge regarding business operations, (y) the potential target lacked sufficient capital on hand to support its large technology research and development expenses, and (z) although new business models and customized products are planned, the target had not yet been fully certified in its target markets, thus increasing the uncertainty of future revenue.

On February 17, 2023, MKD Taiwan contacted Chung-Yi Sun, the Chief Executive Officer of Cetus Capital, to introduce itself as a potential business combination target. Following correspondence among Cetus Capital, MKD Taiwan and ARC Group, on February 24, 2023, Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan entered into a mutual non-disclosure agreement. Thereafter, representatives of MKD Taiwan began sharing information, including historical financial statements, with Cetus Capital and ARC Group.

On March 2, 2023, MKD Taiwan provided Cetus Capital with a cost analysis, past financial statements, financial projections for 2023, market forecasts and the investment structure of MKD Taiwan’s shareholders, as well as other data to help Cetus Capital to assess the status and condition of MKD Taiwan.

Between March 2, 2023 and March 8, 2023, representatives of Cetus Capital attended a number of virtual meetings, conference calls or face-to-face meetings with MKD Taiwan’s senior management, during which MKD Taiwan’s senior management (i) discussed MKD Taiwan’s overall target market and highlighted the growth potential of MKD Taiwan’s business; (ii) provided a detailed explanation of MKD Taiwan’s key products and services, highlighting MKD Taiwan’s competitive advantages and key reasons for industry-leading solutions; (iii) conducted product demonstrations; (iv) discussed the competitive landscape for MKD Taiwan and its market leadership in providing intelligent solutions in the automotive and logistics industry, highlighting MKD Taiwan’s technical capabilities, which will enable MKD Taiwan to maintain its leading position; (v) discussed MKD Taiwan’s product and business strategy; and (vi) discussed MKD Taiwan’s financial model, which is based on the historical and projected financial performance of MKD Taiwan’s business. During the same period, Cetus Capital also conducted independent channel checks on MKD Taiwan’s clients through its own relationships and networks.

On March 9, 2023, representatives of Cetus Capital held a video conference with MKD Taiwan’s senior management, during which MKD Taiwan’s senior management provided a more detailed update on MKD Taiwan’s business and further discussed MKD Taiwan’s business strategy, including how to increase sales and opportunities and MKD Taiwan’s revenue growth potential, highlighting the expected growth in the automotive and logistics industry and the increase in costs and expenses that may result from marketing strategies.

On March 10, 2023, representatives of Cetus Capital held a virtual meeting with MKD Taiwan’s senior management to discuss MKD Taiwan’s Product Roadmap, Service and MKD Taiwan’s Technical Development Roadmap, how MKD Taiwan’s technology can be applied to other verticals such as the industrial and smart home industries, and the competitive advantage that MKD Taiwan would have in these new verticals. MKD Taiwan’s executives elaborated on MKD Taiwan’s development strategy in the automotive and logistics industries.

On March 11, 2023, representatives from Cetus Capital held a virtual meeting with MKD Taiwan’s senior management to get an update on its financial model, including revenue growth, cost drivers, and financial projections. MKD Taiwan’s senior management also discussed historical trends in key operational metrics for MKD Taiwan’s business.

Between March 11, 2023 and March 15, 2023, Cetus Capital collected and analyzed revenue and other financial data of selected publicly traded companies (MKD Taiwan Comparable Companies) related to the market-leading, high-growth automotive and logistics industries, in connection with its evaluation of the enterprise value of MKD Taiwan. At the same time, Chung-Yi Sun, the President, CEO and Chairman of Cetus Capital, along with Cetus Capital directors Cheng-Nan Wu and Jung-Te Chang, along with Ming-Chia Huang and Min-Jie Cui for MKD Taiwan, led the negotiations for a potential letter of intent between Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan. Mr. Sun and Mr. Huang had multiple calls to discuss key terms of letter of intent, including transaction structure, valuation, consideration, board matters, management, governance, transaction expenses, definitive agreements, closing conditions, due diligence requirements, post-closing equity lock-up requirements and timeline. Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan also held several virtual meetings and internal conference calls to discuss these key terms. Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan negotiated and agreed on MKD Taiwan’s projected enterprise value of $230 million based on Cetus Capital’s valuation of MKDTW using a comparable company analysis model.

On March 13, 2023, Cetus Capital submitted to MKD Taiwan a preliminary draft of a non-binding term sheet between Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan providing for an all-stock business combination between Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan. The term sheet provided for an enterprise value of MKD Taiwan of $230 million and a pre-money equity value of MKD Taiwan of $230 million.

Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan, and their respective representatives and advisors, continued to negotiate the non-binding term sheet in the following days and exchanged three drafts. On March 16, 2023, Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan executed a non-binding term sheet providing for an all-stock business combination between the two companies. The final term sheet provided for an enterprise value of MKD Taiwan of $230 million and a pre-money equity value of MKD Taiwan of $223 million. The term sheet provided for a structure to be determined by the parties so as to result in the most tax efficient outcome reasonably practicable, a board of directors of the Combined Company consisting of five persons (with MKD Taiwan having the right to appoint three directors, the Sponsor having the right to appoint one director, and one independent director to be mutually agreed between MKD Taiwan and the Sponsor), a management team of the Combined Company consisting of Ming-Chia Huang as Chief Executive Officer and Min-jie Cui as Chief Financial Officer, and a sixty (60) day exclusivity period.

On March 23, 2023, representatives of Cetus Capital, MKD Taiwan, ARC Group, Pryor Cashman LLP, legal counsel to Cetus Capital (“Pryor Cashman”), and Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP (“SRFC”), legal counsel to MKD Taiwan, held a videoconference call to discuss the process and timeline for negotiating and executing a definitive Business Combination Agreement and for each side to perform a due diligence review of the other.

79

On March 28, 2023, Pryor Cashman and SRFC had an initial conference call to discuss the structure of the business combination, noting that it was the intention that the post-closing public entity would be domiciled in the BVI or the Cayman Islands, and that it would qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act.

Also on March 28, 2023, Pryor Cashman sent to SRFC a legal due diligence request list with respect to MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries, and SRFC sent to Pryor Cashman a legal due diligence request list with respect to Cetus Capital. Between March 28, 2023 and the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, Pryor Cashman and SRFC conducted their respective due diligence investigations, with Pryor Cashman providing its initial response to SRFC’s due diligence request on March 30, 2023 and with SRFC making the data room with respect to MKD Taiwan available to Pryor Cashman on April 13, 2023. Thereafter, requests for additional materials and information were made and fulfilled, follow-up questions were asked and answered, and summaries of the diligence materials were provided to Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan by their respective legal counsel.

Following the initial videoconference call on March 23, 2023, until the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, MKD Taiwan and Cetus Capital, and their respective representatives and advisors, worked together and held several conference calls to analyze and determine the structure for the business combination. Following such analysis, it was determined that a holding company would be formed in the BVI, with the securities of such holding company to be listed on Nasdaq, and with such holding company forming two wholly owned BVI subsidiaries for purposes of effecting the Acquisition Merger and the SPAC Merger.

On May 5, 2023, SRFC sent an initial draft of the Business Combination Agreement to Cetus Capital and Pryor Cashman. Pursuant to the draft, the transaction consideration was $230 million. All of the consideration would be paid in shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share. Following the Closing, the PubCo Board would consist of five directors, with MKD Taiwan having the right to appoint three directors, the Sponsor having the right to appoint one director, and one independent director to be mutually agreed between MKD Taiwan and the Sponsor, and for a management team consisting of Ming-Chia Huang as Chief Executive Officer and Min-jie Cui as Chief Financial Officer. The draft did not provide for any break-up fees or provide for the payment of Cetus Capital’s extension fees.

Following the delivery of the initial draft of the Business Combination Agreement, further details regarding the proposed structure of the transaction, and of the Taiwan Reorganization, were determined, with Pryor Cashman and SRFC having calls and correspondence regarding the details. On May 17, 2023, SRFC delivered to Pryor Cashman a revised draft of the Business Combination Agreement that reflected the revised structure, with Pryor Cashman, Ogier, BVI legal counsel to Cetus Capital, and Lee and Li, Taiwan legal counsel to MKD Taiwan, providing comments in the days thereafter.

Several additional drafts of the Business Combination Agreement, and of the exhibits thereto, were exchanged among the parties over the next month, with the last revised draft being circulated by SRFC on June 16, 2023. The most significant items that were subject to negotiation and update in the various revised drafts of the Business Combination Agreement were: (A) an increase in the size of the post-closing PubCo Board from five directors to seven directors, with MKD Taiwan having the right to appoint five directors and with the Sponsor having the right to appoint two directors; (B) the addition of a representation and warranty by MKD Taiwan regarding its top five customers and suppliers; (C) the removal of a closing condition whereby Cetus Capital would be required to have not less than $5,000,001 in net tangible assets at closing; (D) an extension of the deadline for the completion of the Taiwan Reorganization to September 30, 2023; (E) an extension of the deadline for the preparation of the financial statements of MKD Taiwan to August 31, 2023; (F) an extension of the deadline for PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement to July 31, 2023; (G) the addition of a provision regarding responsibility for making extension payments if the Business Combination is not closed prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period (as it may be extended from time to time as described in the Existing Charter); (H) the addition of a termination right in the event that the Taiwan Reorganization does not close on or prior to September 30, 2023 and in the event that PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 do not become a party to the Business Combination Agreement on or prior to July 31, 2023 (with MKD Taiwan to be responsible for the fees and expenses incurred by Cetus Capital in the event that Cetus Capital terminates the Business Combination Agreement for these reasons); and (I) details regarding the scope of, and the limitations on, MKD Taiwan’s indemnification obligations for certain matters under the Business Combination Agreement.

The Cetus Board met via teleconference on June 12, 2023 to consider and discuss the proposed business combination with MKD Taiwan, which was attended by all of the members of the Cetus Board as well as by representatives of Pryor Cashman. Representatives of Pryor Cashman discussed with the Cetus Board their fiduciary duties under Delaware law, summarized the process to date and reviewed the provisions of the proposed Business Combination Agreement and other agreements and documents to be approved by the Cetus Board in connection with the proposed Business Combination, copies of which had been previously provided to the Cetus Board, noting any key differences with the non-binding term sheet that was executed in March 2023. Mr. Sun, the President, CEO and Chairman of the Cetus Board then discussed the principal considerations and key strategic rationales with respect to the proposed business combination with MKD Taiwan as well as other transaction considerations. Following discussion, the Cetus Board unanimously authorized and approved the Business Combination Agreement, the related agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, substantially in the form provided to the Cetus Board, subject to any final changes as may be approved by management, and recommended the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement by Cetus Capital’s stockholders.

On June 20, 2023, Cetus Capital, MKD Taiwan and MKD BVI executed the Business Combination Agreement.

On July 31, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a First Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which (A) MKDWELL Tech Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to PubCo thereunder and (B) the parties agreed to extend the date by which PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 must execute an addendum to become parties to the Business Combination Agreement from July 31, 2023 to August 20, 2023.

The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”). The First MKD Loan is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI containing substantially the same terms as the Extension Note.

On January 31, 2024, Cetus Capital held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of Cetus Capital approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Cetus Capital must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Cetus Board (the “2024 Extension”). Cetus Capital implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, no agreements have been entered into with any PIPE investors to purchase new ordinary shares of PubCo. There is no certainty that any PIPE financing will be secured if required to meet any redemption requests or other working capital requirements of the Combined Company. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied.

The Cetus Board’s Reasons for Approving the Business Combination

Prior to reaching the decision to approve the Business Combination Agreement, Cetus Capital’s directors reviewed MKD Taiwan’s business results and financial due diligence conducted by Cetus Capital’s management and third party legal and financial advisors, which included:

| 1. | Discussion with MKD Taiwan’s management on business model.
| 2. | Analysis and review of MKD Taiwan’s historical financial statements.
| 3. | Review of MKD Taiwan’s revenue model.
| 4. | Interviews with senior executives from various business departments of MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries.
| 5. | Discussions with the CEO and senior management of MKD Taiwan on future growth strategy.
| 6. | Discussions with the founders of MKD Taiwan on investor support and future capital markets strategy.
| 7. | Review of MKD Taiwan’s material business contracts.
| 8. | Review of MKD Taiwan’s related party transactions.
| 9. | Review of prevailing industry changes and challenges in the COVID-19 era for companies in the business of MKD Taiwan, and the possible strategies in facing these changes and challenges.
| 10. | Legal due diligence review conducted by Cetus Capital’s legal counsel.
| 11. | Assessment of total addressable market, its key competitors, competitive advantages, and barriers of entry.
| 12. | Review of MKD Taiwan’s financial projections and any changes thereto, as set forth in the section titled “Summary of MKD Taiwan Financial Analysis and Cetus Capital Internal Valuation Discussion – Comparable Company Considerations” appearing below in this proxy statement/prospectus.
| 13. | Review of the aggregate consideration to be issued to the stockholders of MKD BVI upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

81

When considering the Business Combination with MKD Taiwan, the Cetus Board reviewed the information available, and considered, among other things, a number of factors as generally supporting its decision to enter into the Business Combination Agreement, including, but not limited to, the following material factors:

| ● | High-Growth Business Model. The automobile industry in which MKD Taiwan operates has been undergoing rapid electrification over the past decade, thus leading to the expectation of increasing demand for the products that MKD Taiwan develops and sells.
| ● | Attractive Valuation. The Cetus Board reviewed the enterprise value and implied valuation multiples of select public companies, which management of Cetus Capital deemed relevant based on its professional judgment and expertise. Cetus Capital management found that the implied EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA for MKD Technology Inc. are within the ranges of mean and median of selected comparable companies’ EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA respectively, and that the consideration for the MKD Technology Inc., from a financial point of view, is fair for the shareholders of Cetus Capital.
| ● | Attractive Opportunity for Growth. MKD Taiwan has attractive growth strategies. It is dedicated to expanding its penetration of the consumer and automotive electronics market by providing superior customer service and breadth of relevant products and solutions at attractive price points.
| ● | Financial Condition. The Cetus Board considered factors such as MKD Taiwan’s business operations, general outlook, the expected length of time that MKD Taiwan would be able to continue operating its business in the normal course based on its current cash and cash equivalents and expected cash to be received from the Trust Account in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. The Cetus Board expects that the net proceeds from the Business Combination, together with MKD Taiwan’s available resources and existing cash and cash equivalents, will enable it to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure in the foreseeable future following the Closing of the Business Combination.
| ● | Stockholder Liquidity. The obligation in the Business Combination Agreement to have PubCo Ordinary Shares issued as merger consideration listed on the Nasdaq, a major U.S. stock exchange, has the potential to offer Cetus Capital stockholders greater liquidity.
| ● | Lock-Up. The Sponsor has agreed to be subject to a one hundred eighty (180) day lockup in respect of its PubCo Ordinary Shares and certain current stockholders, officers and directors of MKD have agreed to be subject to a one hundred eighty (180) day lockup in respect of their PubCo Ordinary Shares, in each case, subject to certain customary exceptions, which will provide important stability to the leadership and governance of the Combined Company.
| ● | Commercial Due Diligence. The Cetus Board considered the commercial and financial due diligence that was undertaken by Cetus Capital management and its advisors.
| ● | Other Alternatives. The Cetus Board believes, after a thorough review of other business combination opportunities reasonably available to Cetus Capital, that the Business Combination represents the best initial business combination for Cetus Capital and the most attractive opportunity for management to accelerate its business plan based upon the process utilized to evaluate and assess other potential acquisition targets, and the Cetus Board’s belief that such process has not presented a better alternative.
| ● | Negotiated Transaction. The financial and other terms of the Business Combination Agreement and the fact that such terms and conditions are reasonable and were the product of arm’s-length negotiations between Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan.
| ● | Experienced Management Team. MKD Taiwan’s senior management team and board of directors have significant experience in the technology and electronics industry.

82

When considering the Business Combination with MKD Taiwan, the Cetus Board also considered, among other things, a variety of uncertainties, risks and other potentially negative factors relevant to the Business Combination, including, without limitation, the following:

| 1. | The risks that are associated with the Combined Company being a publicly traded company with a management team with limited experience operating a public company.
| 2. | The risk that the potential benefits of the Business Combination may not be fully achieved or may not be achieved within the expected timeframes.
| 3. | The risk that certain key employees of MKD Taiwan may not choose to remain with the Combined Company following the Closing of the Business Combination.
| 4. | The risk that a substantial number of Public Stockholders will elect to redeem their Public Shares in connection with the Special Meeting, which would potentially make the Business Combination more difficult to complete or reduce the amount of cash resources available to the Combined Company for the operation of its business.
| 5. | The risk that MKD Taiwan may fail to maintain important business relationships with key suppliers, customers and business partners.
| 6. | The possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination or the Combined Company following the Closing of the Business Combination.
| 7. | The risk that the Cetus Board may not have properly valued MKD Taiwan’s business.
| 8. | The risk that the announcement of the Business Combination and potential diversion of MKD Taiwan’s management and employee attention may adversely affect MKD Taiwan’s operations.
| 9. | The risk that the Business Combination may not be consummated in a timely manner or that the Closing might not occur despite the efforts of the parties thereto, including by reason of a failure to obtain the approval of Cetus Capital’s stockholders to the Business Combination and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.
| 10. | The risk that the Closing of the Business Combination is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain conditions that are not within Cetus Capital’s control.
| 11. | The fact that the Public Stockholders will likely hold a minority position in PubCo following the Closing of the Business Combination, which will limit the ability of the Public Stockholders to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.
| 12. | The risk of incurring significant fees and expenses associated with completing the Business Combination and the substantial time and effort of management required to complete the Business Combination.
| 13. | The other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of this proxy statement/prospectus.

The Cetus Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination. As noted above, Cetus Capital’s officers and directors have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries and have concluded that their experience and backgrounds enabled them to make the necessary analyses and determinations regarding the business combination with MKD Taiwan. In addition, Cetus Capital’s officers and directors and its advisors have substantial experience with mergers and acquisitions. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of the Cetus Board in valuing MKD Taiwan’s business and assuming the risk that MKD Taiwan may not have properly valued such business.

Cetus Capital entered into an agreement with ARC Group on February 10, 2023 pursuant to which Cetus Capital engaged ARC Group as merger and acquisition advisor in connection with the identification of and negotiations with potential business combination targets and other financial advisory services as agreed upon (such agreement, the “ARC Engagement Agreement”). Cetus Capital selected ARC Group to assist the Cetus Board due to ARC Group’s experience in finance and merger and acquisition expertise particularly in the SPAC area as well as its global contacts, particularly throughout Southeast Asia. The ARC Engagement Agreement provided that Cetus Capital would pay to ARC Group an initial service fee of $170,000, a monthly fee of $10,000, cash payments upon the achievement of various milestones and a success fee in a negotiated amount (which success fee, at the election of ARC Group, would be paid in equity of the surviving entity with a 50% discount to the post-merger valuation). Cetus Capital also granted to ARC Group a right of first refusal to any future public and private equity, equity linked and debt offerings of Cetus Capital (or any of its successors or subsidiaries) and a right of first refusal to continue as exclusive financial advisor of Cetus Capital, each for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the business combination. The ARC Engagement Agreement contains no indemnification or lock-up provisions and is governed by the laws of the State of New York.

During its engagement with Cetus Capital, ARC Group introduced to Cetus Capital approximately five potential targets for acquisition. ARC Group helped coordinate meetings, interviews and correspondence with potential targets and assisted Cetus Capital with the comparable company analysis as set forth on page 81 of this proxy statement/prospectus, which analysis was based on financial forecasts provided by MKD Taiwan and from publicly available consensus research and analysts’ estimates from the Factset Research Systems Inc. database as of March 15, 2023, as well as other publicly available information. Other than the comparable company analysis noted above, which was prepared on or about March 27, 2023, several months prior to the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement and the preparation of the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, ARC Group was not involved in the preparation of any of the disclosures contained in this proxy statement/prospectus or any material underlying such disclosures (or the review thereof), nor did it prepare any other materials that were reviewed by the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination.

On May 15, 2023, ARC Group submitted a letter of termination of the ARC Engagement Agreement, alleging the delayed payment of fees. In connection with the letter of termination, which was accepted by Cetus Capital, ARC Group withdrew from its role as financial advisor to Cetus Capital. Following the termination of the ARC Engagement Agreement, ARC Group and Cetus Capital engaged in a brief discussion about renewing the engagement, but decided to not proceed with such renewal. ARC Group has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included in the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination, which, as noted above, was limited to assisting in the preparation of the comparable company analysis set forth on page 81 of this proxy statement/prospectus. Due to the fact that the comparable company analysis was based on financial forecasts provided by MKD Taiwan and from publicly available consensus research and analysts’ estimates from the Factset Research Systems Inc. database as of March 15, 2023, as well as other publicly available information, and not on information or processes that are proprietary or particular to ARC Group, Cetus Capital believes that the comparable company analysis may still be relied upon.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Cetus Capital has paid to ARC Group pursuant to the ARC Engagement Agreement the initial service fee of $170,000 and monthly fees for three (3) months (for total monthly fees of $30,000). A milestone payment in the amount of $50,000 remains due and payable. Other than the obligation to make the $50,000 milestone payment, no further payments are due and payable by Cetus Capital to ARC Group pursuant to the ARC Engagement Agreement (and ARC Group has waived the payment of any such fees). After request from Cetus Capital, ARC Group has offered to Cetus Capital to definitively terminate, for the avoidance of doubt, the entirety of the ARC Engagement Agreement, including each and every right of first refusal, exclusivity, and follow-on fee, with the exception of the customary confidentiality obligations contained within the ARC Engagement Agreement, in return for Cetus Capital’s settlement of the outstanding $50,000 milestone payment. Cetus Capital intends to accept this offer and settle the $50,000 milestone payment in return for such definitive termination.

Cetus Capital has discussed the disclosures relating to the termination of the ARC Engagement Agreement contained in this proxy statement/prospectus with ARC Group, and the feedback that Cetus Capital received from ARC Group is reflected in the disclosures contained in this proxy statement/prospectus. Investors are cautioned not to place any reliance on the fact that ARC Group has been previously involved with the Business Combination described in this proxy statement/prospectus, particularly given the fact that ARC Group has disclaimed liability for any disclosures included herein with which ARC Group was involved and has withdrawn its association with any materials ARC Group provided to the Cetus Board or management in connection with its consideration of the Business Combination. Cetus Capital does not expect that the termination of the ARC Engagement Agreement will meaningfully impact the Business Combination.

Satisfaction of 80% Test

It is a requirement under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market that a SPAC’s initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the assets held in its trust account (excluding any deferred underwriters’ fees and taxes payable on the income earned on the trust account) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with such initial business combination. As of June 30, 2023, which is ten days following the date of the Business Combination Agreement, the balance of the funds in the Trust Account was approximately $57,887,291 (excluding $1,725,000 of the cash portion of the deferred underwriting commissions), and 80% thereof represents approximately $46,309,832.

Based on the financial analysis of MKD Taiwan generally used to approve the Business Combination, which reflected an enterprise value of MKD Taiwan of $230 million and a pre-money equity value of MKD Taiwan of $223 million, and assuming that MKD BVI continues to own 62.36% of the outstanding equity interest of MKD Taiwan on the closing date of the Business Combination, the Cetus Board determined that this 80% test was met, as an ownership interest of 62.36% of MKD Taiwan was deemed to have a fair market value greater than 80% of the value of the Trust Account at the time of the signing of the Business Combination Agreement.

The Cetus Board believes that because of the financial skills and background of its directors, it was qualified to conclude that the acquisition of MKD Taiwan met the 80% requirement. Based on the fact that the $230 million enterprise value of MKD Taiwan (or 62.36% thereof, which is $143,428,000) and the $223 million pre-money equity value of MKD Taiwan (or 62.36% thereof, which is $139,062,800) as described above is in excess of the threshold of approximately $46,309,832, representing 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions), the Board determined that the fair market value of MKD Taiwan was substantially in excess of 80% of the funds in the Trust Account and that the 80% test was met.

Summary of MKD Taiwan Financial Analysis and Cetus Capital Internal Valuation Discussion

The following is a summary of the financial analyses prepared by Cetus Capital management and its advisors and reviewed by the Cetus Board in connection with the valuation of MKD Taiwan. The summary set forth below does not purport to be a complete description of the analysis performed or factors considered by Cetus Capital nor does the order of the analysis described represent the relative importance or weight given to those analysis by the Cetus Board. Cetus Capital may have deemed various assumptions more or less probable than other assumptions, so the implications of the analysis summarized below should not be taken to be Cetus Capital’s view of the actual value of MKD Taiwan.

Certain Projected Financial Information

The projections set out below were requested by, and disclosed to, Cetus Capital in March 2023 for use as a component of its overall evaluation of MKD Taiwan and are included in this proxy statement/prospectus because they were provided to the Cetus Board for its evaluation of the Business Combination. Neither the management of MKD Taiwan nor any of its representatives, advisors or affiliates has made or makes any representation to any person regarding the ultimate performance of MKD Taiwan compared to the information contained in the projections. Although the assumptions and estimates on which the forecasts for revenue and costs are based are believed by MKD Taiwan’s management to be reasonable and based on the best then-currently available information, the financial forecasts are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond MKD Taiwan’s control. While all forecasts are necessarily speculative, MKD Taiwan believes that the prospective financial information covering periods beyond twelve months from its date of preparation carries increasingly higher levels of uncertainty and should be read in that context. There will be differences between actual and forecasted results, and actual results may be materially greater or materially less than those contained in the forecasts. Readers of this proxy statement/prospectus, including investors or holders, are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information. MKD Taiwan will not refer back to the financial projections in its future periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act.

MKD Taiwan provided preliminary projections on the actual operations of MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries and future plans, which projections reflected estimated revenue for 2023 and 2024 of US$10.6 million and US$59.6 million, respectively, and estimated EBITDA for 2023 and 2024 of US$2.4 million and US$30.4 million, respectively.

While the projections reflected the views of MKD Taiwan’s management on future performance, there could be changes in geo-political factors, macro-economic conditions, the cyclical nature of the technology industry, new technology innovations and other factors. As a result of these unpredictable changes, MKD Taiwan believes that the prospective financial information covering periods beyond twelve months from its date of preparation carries increasingly higher levels of uncertainty. MKD Taiwan will further revise the forecasts to reflect the occurrence of future events prior to the Business Combination.

85

In order to fully understand the preliminary financial projections, the data must be read together with the text of the summary, as the data alone does not constitute a complete description of the financial analysis performed by MKD Taiwan. Considering the data below without considering all financial projection or factors or the full narrative description of such analysis or factors, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying such analysis or factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying the financial analysis and the recommendation of the Cetus Board.

In preparation of the projections, MKD Taiwan considered a number of factors and made various material assumptions based on best estimates at the time the projections were prepared and that speak only as of that time. These factors and various material assumptions include industry market conditions, financial operating conditions, human resources conditions, R&D technology, patent layout development, marketing conditions, manufacturing and product quality in the next five years.

MKD Taiwan does not as a matter of course make public projections as to future sales, earnings or other results. However, MKD Taiwan’s management has prepared the prospective financial information set forth in this section to present the key elements of the forecasts provided to Cetus Capital. The accompanying prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants with respect to prospective financial information, but, in the view of MKD Taiwan’s management, was prepared on a reasonable basis, reflected the best currently available estimates and judgments at the time the information was delivered to MKD Taiwan, and presented, to the best of management’s knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of MKD Taiwan at the time the information were delivered to Cetus Capital. However, this information does not reflect statements of fact. Readers of this proxy statement/prospectus are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information. Neither Cetus Capital’s independent auditors, nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the projected financial information contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the projected financial information.

This information should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of MKD,” as well as the audited financial statements of MKD Taiwan included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Comparable Company Considerations

Cetus Capital identified several publicly traded companies comparable to the business operations of MKD Taiwan and reviewed these comparables with its M&A and capital markets advisor. According to the analysis of the data of our comparable companies, the public access to information in the core market shows that the products and markets of these companies are comparable to those of MKD, and there is a direct reference value in the results of “Enterprise value (EV)” and “income” and “EBITDA”. However, in the internal valuation discussion of Cetus Capital, a comprehensive assessment was made on MKD’s “industrial capacity valuation”, “SWOT valuation”, and other aspects, and the evaluation results were provided to the Cetus Board. The Cetus Board concluded that MKD Taiwan compared favorably on key operating metrics.

Cetus Capital believes that MKD Taiwan’s technology is unique and MKD Taiwan’s growth prospects may differ substantially to the comparable companies that it reviewed. In determining the consideration to be paid in the Business Combination, Cetus Capital analyzed the revenue and EBITDA multiples of the following companies as based on the analysis of these companies and revenue estimates it obtained from public filings and equity research reports, the average of median as the lower and upper bounds of the revenue multiple and EBITDA multiple ranges for the selected companies’ prevailing revenue and EBITDA multiples.

March 2023 Projections

The Cetus Board was presented with the enterprise value (“EV”) divided by revenue and EBITDA for each of the selected public comparable companies. Estimates were based on publicly available consensus research and analysts’ estimates from the Factset Research Systems Inc. database as of March 15, 2023 and from other publicly available information. The EV/EBITDA multiple method is an increasingly common valuation method used by professional investors. The main advantage of this method is the clearer measurement of corporate earnings by the EBITDA indicator, and the stronger relationship between this indicator and corporate value. However, in some specific industries, due to industry characteristics and accounting regulations, the relationship may be distorted to a certain extent. In these cases, users need to make certain adjustments to the EBITDA indicator to restore its relationship to enterprise value.

The projection made in March 2023 encompass projections for both 2023 and 2024, specifically covering the following business segments: 1) automotive intelligent electronic devices, AIoT, and ODM and other major products (collectively referred to as “Existing Business”) and 2) camping recreational vehicles, or camping RVs, according to which the MKD Taiwan assessment report is made.

86

The financial forecasts are as follows:

Revenue

For the Existing Business, the revenue forecast for 2023 is based on the summary of intent request orders obtained from company inquiries from major customers at the beginning of the 2023. The revenue of Existing Business in 2024 is projected to grow by 50% from 2023, after considering the high growth trend observed from the estimated 2023 sales.

Revenue forecast for camping RVs is based on the business plan formulated after MKD Taiwan’s visits to 5 potential local governments. This plan includes the construction of one camping site in 2023, with an anticipated sale and rental of 20 RVs. In 2024, there are projections for the addition of 5 larger camping facilities, each capable of selling and leasing an estimated 100 RVs.

Gross Margin

The gross profit margins for the Existing Business in 2023 and 2024 are primarily based on the historical gross profit margins in 2022.

The costs for camping RVs in 2023 and 2024 are calculated based on the respective quantities of RVs and unit purchase prices. The unit purchase price incorporates reference to the typical purchasing price of original camping RV in the market, as observed from competitors. MKD Taiwan’s newly purchased RVs will undergo intelligent modifications. The corresponding gross profit margin for RVs is obtained by dividing the gross profit for RVs by the revenue generated from RVs.

The assumptions, estimates, and factors considered in the financial projections included, but were not limited to, the following:

1) | The intent request orders summarized from customers in the beginning of 2023 can be converted into actual contracts and then accordingly into realized sales, and that there will be sustained fast growth rates in 2024 for Existing Business.
2) | MKD Taiwan’s collaborative projects with 5 local governments can be completed within the projected timeframe, and that the corresponding camping RVs business will be competitive to yield returns no less than market competitors.
3) | MKD Taiwan ‘s overall gross profit margin and cost structure for Existing Business in 2023 and 2024 will not undergo significant unfavorable changes compared to the year of 2022.
4) | MKD Taiwan will be able to obtain competitive pricing for purchasing its original camping RV components.
5) | MKD Taiwan will be able to retain their existing customers and procure new customers to expand and optimize their customer pool.
6) | MKD Taiwan will be able to develop and maintain supply chains that can support its manufacturing plan, including the operation of its camping RVs business.
7) | MKD Taiwan will expand their camping RVs business as scheduled to support its business growth.
8) | MKD Taiwan will be able to attract, motivate and retain key management as well as experienced and capable personnel to maintain and grow their business.
9) | MKD Taiwan will be able to generate adequate cash inflows from their operating activities or maintain adequate external financing to support its operation; and
10) | Future legislative or regulatory changes would not have a material adverse effect on MKD Taiwan’s business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Since MKD Taiwan’s business, especially for the camping RVs, is expected to achieve scale in 2024, the Cetus Board believes that the pricing multiples of 2024 is propriate for comparison and provide the reference point. The pricing multiples of comparable companies are set out as below:

|  |  |  | EV/Revenue |  |  | EV/EBITDA |
Company Name |  | TICKER |  | 2024E |  |  | 2024E |
Qorvo, Inc. |  | QRVO |  |  | 2.88 |  |  |  | 9.73 |
MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. |  | MTSI |  |  | 6.81 |  |  |  | 20.42 |
Gentex Corporation |  | GNTX |  |  | 2.45 |  |  |  | 8.90 |
Silicon Laboratories Inc. |  | SLAB |  |  | 4.51 |  |  |  | 22.29 |
Aptiv PLC |  | APTV |  |  | 1.66 |  |  |  | 10.82 |
Analog Devices, Inc. |  | ADI |  |  | 7.78 |  |  |  | 15.72 |
Maximum: |  |  |  |  | 7.78 |  |  |  | 22.29 |
Minimum: |  |  |  |  | 1.66 |  |  |  | 8.90 |
Median: |  |  |  |  | 3.69 |  |  |  | 13.27 |
Mean: |  |  |  |  | 4.35 |  |  |  | 14.65 |
MKD Technology Inc. |  |  |  |  | 3.86 | (1) |  |  | 7.57 | (2)

| (1) | Implied EV/Revenue multiple of 3.86x for MKD Technology Inc is calculated by dividing the Aggregate Merger Consideration of $ 230 million by the expected revenue of $59.6 million in 2024.
| (2) | Implied EV/EBITDA multiple of 7.57x for MKD Technology Inc is calculated by dividing the Aggregate Merger Consideration of $ 230 million by the expected EBITDA of $30.4 million in 2024.

As the implied EV/Revenue of MKD Technology Inc is within the range of mean and median of comparable companies’ EV/Revenue, the consideration for the MKD Technology Inc is fair for the shareholders of Cetus. Also, as the implied EV/EBITDA of MKD Technology Inc is less than the lower bound of comparable companies’ EV/EBITDA, the consideration for the MKD Technology Inc is favorable for the shareholders of Cetus Capital.

September 2023 Projections

On September 7, 2023, MKD Taiwan revised the sales and financial forecasts that were previously provided to and evaluated by Cetus Capital, due to the changing economic and business outlook in Mainland China. The rapid spread of COVID-19 in China dampened growth in 2022, but its reopening is expected to pave the way for a faster-than-expected recovery. China’s annual GDP in 2023 is projected to grow at 5.2% at the beginning of 2023, according to the World Economic Outlook (January 2023) published by International Monetary Fund, However, China’s recovery is slow, in part as a result of unresolved real estate problems, with negative cross-border spillovers. The actual GDP growth rate in the first quarter of 2023 was approximately 4.5%, according to the National Bureau of Statistics of China. The main revisions arise from factors including the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate hiking from 4.65% to 5.33% between March 2023 and September 2023, the Chinese economy, and youth unemployment rate increasing from 17.3% in January 2023 to 21.3% in June 2023. Factors such as the unemployment rate have led to changes in MKD Taiwan’s product sales mix and marketing layout in China. The main sales difference is due to the revision of sales figures for campervan camp operations and management as a result of the slowdown in China’s economic factors. The MKD Taiwan revenue forecast data obtained in March 2023 included automotive smart electronic devices, AIOT, ODM and other major products (collectively referred to as “Existing Business”), camping RV and its base, but the MKD Taiwan forecast obtained in September 2023 lacks the camping RV and its base sales forecast in 2023, as MKD Taiwan has postponed the launch of its camping RVs business, according to which the MKD Taiwan assessment report is made. The layout of this business operation has been changed from the original radical layout to a slow growth layout. As a result, the sales layout has changed, so that the estimated figures provided to Cetus Capital in March 2023 have been adjusted.

MKD Taiwan is a manufacturer and supplier of electronic equipment for camper vans, business vehicles, and logistics vehicles, as well as various electronic products for commercial use in China. This includes providing intelligent RV components, RV apps, RV cloud services, and others to enhance the camping experience. In line with the policy of the Chinese government on promoting rural tourism and the revitalization of rural industries, coupled with MKD Taiwan’s expertise in electronic equipment of RV, MKD Taiwan sees an opportunity to capitalize on this growing trend. Through extending the supply chain of camper van components and managing camping sites, MKD Taiwan believes that operating campgrounds and offering sales and management services for camper vans presents a promising business model.

This business model primarily involves collaboration with Mainland China local governments or authorized scenic area operators to establish camping sites through land leasing or Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) arrangements. The goal is to operate camping sites to facilitate the sale or leasing of camping vehicles, as well as provide post-sales operational management services and related supplementary income.

The camping vehicle business process includes:

| ● | Obtaining Camping Site Land:

Obtaining land through leasing or BOT arrangements from local governments or authorized scenic areas. After obtaining the operational rights to the camping site, planning and appropriate modifications are carried out.

| ● | Sale or Lease of Camping Vehicles:

Customers acquire camping vehicles through one-time or installment purchases from MKD Taiwan or obtain leased vehicles from rental companies in collaboration with MKD Taiwan.

| ● | Camping Site Operation:

Operating camping sites through online tourism platforms, shopping platforms, media promotions and regularly organizes lifestyle experiences and themed events to attract customers to the camping sites.

The integration of intelligent RVs combines life and technology, allowing users to experience a smart lifestyle through their smartphones or other hardware.

The actual growth of China’s economy, as measured by the first quarter GDP of 2023, did not show the expected strength as projected in March 2023. Additionally, the observed unemployment rate in mid-2023 was higher than the estimates made in March 2023. Taking these economic factors into consideration, the MKD management, based on business considerations, decided to postpone the launch of its camping RVs business.

The adjusted projected sales and financial forecasts are as follows:

Revenue and profit margin in 2023 and 2024

For all the business segments, the revenue forecast for 2023 is calculated based on actual revenue data in the first half of 2023, combined with the existing order data in the second half of 2023, with an implied sales growth of 67% from 2022 to 2023. The 2023 revenue forecast is anticipated to closely align with actual figures. The revenue growth rate in 2024 is estimated at 47%, which represents a 70% of implied growth rate in 2023.

For the years 2023 and 2024, the gross profit margins are primarily determined with reference to the historical gross profit margins of 2022.

Revenue and profit margin from 2025 to 2027

For the Existing Business, the revenue forecast from 2025 to 2027 is expected to maintain a CAGR of approximately 47%, which represents a 70% of implied growth rate in 2023.

For the Existing Business from 2025 to 2027, the gross profit margin is mainly determined with reference to the historical gross profit margin of 2022.

For the camping RVs business, the revenue forecast from 2025 to 2027 is derived from the business plan formulated in September 2023, following continued communication with local governments. The plan includes of accumulative 7 camping sites to be set up by the end of 2027, and each site was estimated to accommodate 20-100 camping RVs.

The camping RV costs for from 2025 to 2027 are calculated based on the respective quantity of RVs and unit purchase prices. The unit purchase price incorporates reference to the typical purchasing price of original camping RV in the market, as observed from competitors. MKD Taiwan’s newly purchased RVs will undergo intelligent modifications. The corresponding gross profit margin for camping RVs business is obtained by dividing the gross profit for RVs by the revenue generated from RVs.

The assumptions, estimates, and factors considered in the financial projections included, but were not limited to, the following:

1) | Existing order in the second half of 2023 can be converted into actual contracts and then accordingly into realized sales, and that there will be sustained fast growth rate in 2024. These assumptions and estimates depend on several critical factors and contingencies, including (i) whether the existing number of customers with existing orders can remain stable and not experience attrition during the forecast period, and (ii) that the revenue generated from retained customers will not significantly decline.
2) | Existing Business can maintain a fast growth rate (CAGR 47%) outlined in the projection from 2025 to 2027. These assumptions and estimates depend on several critical factors and contingencies, including (i) whether MKD Taiwan, due to its relatively smaller sales scale, will face intensified competition during the forecast period, (ii) whether MKD Taiwan can attract a sufficient number of sales personnel, and (iii) whether the recruited sales staff can contribute to the anticipated sales growth.
3) | Potential projects with local governments can be completed within the estimated timeframe, and that the corresponding camping RVs business will be competitive to yield returns no less than market competitors. These assumptions and estimates depend on several critical factors and contingencies, including whether negotiations and business arrangements between MKD Taiwan and the local governments or government-authorized scenic area operators can reach consensus. Negotiations and business arrangements include, but are not limited to, tax contribution to the local economy, and employment support from the local economy.
| The management of MKD Taiwan anticipates collaborating with five major local governments/ cities in Eastern China and one city in Taiwan during the forecast period. They plan to establish a total of seven camping sites, with the corresponding schedule as follows:

Year |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2026 |  | 2027
Projected Expanded Cities |  | A centrally-administered municipality |  | A city in Zhejiang |  | A city in Jiangsu. A city in Zhejiang |  | A city in Jiangsu. A city in Taiwan
Additional Campsites |  | 1 |  | 2 |  | 2 |  | 2
Cumulative Campsites |  | 1 |  | 3 |  | 5 |  | 7

| As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD Taiwan has not signed any binding contracts or agreements with local governments in relation to the camping RVs business.
4) | The number of sales and leasing of camping RVs is expected to ramp up to 300 during the forecast period. These assumptions and estimates depend on several key factors and contingencies, including: (i) whether China’s economy will continue to grow steadily or experience downturn, and whether there are any adverse impacts from regulatory changes; and (ii) whether MKD Taiwan can establish a team for camping site landscaping planning, RV layout, marketing promotion, as well as operational management, as well as whether this team is capable of attracting the anticipated customers and assisting in managing the associated camping RVs.
| The estimated sales and leasing of camping RVs in forecast period are as follows:

Year |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2026 |  | 2027
Projected Expanded Cities |  | A centrally-administered municipality |  | A city in Zhejiang |  | A city in Jiangsu. A city in Zhejiang |  | A city in Jiangsu. A city in Taiwan
Additional Campsites |  | 1 |  | 2 |  | 2 |  | 2
Units of Camping RVs |  | 30 |  | 70 |  | 125 |  | 75
Total units of Camping RVs |  | 30 |  | 100 |  | 225 |  | 300

| As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD Taiwan has not engaged in the sale or leasing of camping vehicles; it has only generated revenue from the sale of existing camping vehicle components.
5) | MKD Taiwan’s overall gross profit margin and cost structure for all the business segments in 2023 and 2024 will not undergo significant unfavorable changes compared to the year of 2022.
6) | MKD Taiwan will be able to obtain competitive pricing for purchasing its original camping RV components.
7) | MKD Taiwan will be able to retain their existing customers and procure new customers to expand and optimize their customer pool.
8) | MKD Taiwan will be able to develop and maintain supply chain that can support manufacturing plan, including the operation of camping RVs business.
9) | MKD Taiwan will expand their camping RVs business as scheduled to support its business growth.
10) | MKD Taiwan will be able to attract, motivate and retain key management as well as experienced and capable personnel to maintain and grow their business.
11) | MKD Taiwan will be able to generate adequate cash inflows from their operating activities or maintain adequate external financing to support its operation; and
12) | Future legislative or regulatory changes would not have a material adverse effect on MKD Taiwan’s business, results of operations, and financial condition.

*Cetus Capital’s management and board of directors confirm that the September 2023 Projections (financial forecasts for FY2024-FY2027) still reflect their views on future performance, and that they believe that such projections can still be relied upon and that it is not necessary to obtain updated projections at this time.

Cetus Capital has noted that although the FY2023 actual financial results differ from the FY2023 forecast, after discussion with MKD Taiwan management, they believe the related discrepancies are incidental rather than ongoing, and will not materially affect the FY2024-FY2027 forecasts.

The main reasons for the discrepancies are as follows:

| i. | Automotive Electronic and AIIoT: The actual figures were $1.1 million less than forecasted in 2023, accounting for 69% of the total discrepancy. The main reason was that the TOF Laser Radar product could not be delivered on time due to a key parts supplier failing to deliver on schedule. As a result, MKD Taiwan switched to a new supplier by the end of 2023 and reworked the product plan. MKD Taiwan expects the products to be delivered on schedule in 2024.

| ii. | Other (ODM/OEM): The actual figures were $0.178 million less than the forecasted figures in 2023, accounting for 11% of the total discrepancy. The primary reason was that MKD Taiwan planned to expand the types of ODM/OEM products to replace some types of products with declining demand. However, due in part to management’s diverted attention as a result of managerial focus on the Business Combination, the introduction of consumer products was slower than expected. Overall, the replacement of these products is expected to accelerate in 2024.

| iii. | Camper Vans: The actual figures were $0.313 million less than forecasted in 2023, accounting for 20% of the total discrepancy. MKD Taiwan management has surveyed multiple land areas and considered local investment policies. Due to the significant market impact of choosing the correct camp location, management has adopted a cautious approach, resulting in some delays in site selection. However, this does not affect the plan to build one camping site and sell or lease 30 camping RVs in 2024.

After revising the financial forecast as described above, since the Camping RVs business is delayed in the September 2023 Projections, MKD Taiwan’s business is expected to achieve scale in 2026, the Cetus Board believes that the pricing multiples of 2026 is propriate for comparison and provide the reference point. The pricing multiples of comparable companies are set out as below:

|  |  |  | EV/Revenue |  |  | EV/EBITDA |
Company Name |  | TICKER |  | 2026E |  |  | 2026E |
Qorvo, Inc. |  | QRVO |  |  | 2.37 |  |  |  | 8.25 |
MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. |  | MTSI |  |  | 7.46 |  |  |  | 27.27 |
Gentex Corporation |  | GNTX |  |  | 2.53 |  |  |  | 8.05 |
Silicon Laboratories Inc. |  | SLAB |  |  | 2.96 |  |  |  | N/A (1) |
Aptiv PLC |  | APTV |  |  | 1.29 |  |  |  | 8.64 |
Analog Devices, Inc. |  | ADI |  |  | 7.56 |  |  |  | 15.05 |
Maximum: |  |  |  |  | 7.56 |  |  |  | 27.27 |
Minimum: |  |  |  |  | 1.29 |  |  |  | 8.05 |
MKD Technology Inc. |  |  |  |  | 7.16 | (2) |  |  | 16.37 (3) |

| (1) | “N/A” refers to not available.
| (2) | Implied EV/Revenue multiple of 7.16x for MKD Technology Inc is calculated by dividing the Aggregate Merger Consideration of $ 230 million by the expected revenue of $32.11 million in 2026.
| (3) | Implied EV/EBITDA multiple of 16.37x for MKD Technology Inc is calculated by dividing the Aggregate Merger Consideration of $ 230 million by the expected EBITDA of $14.05 million in 2026.

MKD Taiwan has postponed the launch of its camping RVs business and has significantly lowered its estimated revenue and profit forecasts in the September 2023 Projections based on a conservative basis. It is also observed that MKD Taiwan will maintain a relatively high profitability, representing a 2 digits profit margin beyond 3 year forecast period. As such, to further refine for the suitable comparable companies, Cetus Board have narrowed down the selection criteria that the profit margin of comparable companies should exceed 10% for the past two consecutive years. A total of 3 companies (MTSI, GNTX, and ADI) were further identified and finally adopted as the selected comparable companies to reflect the similar profitability as MKD Taiwan.

The pricing multiples of selected comparable companies are set out as below:

|  |  |  | EV/Revenue |  |  | EV/EBITDA |
Company Name |  | TICKER |  | 2026E |  |  | 2026E |
MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. |  | MTSI |  |  | 7.46 |  |  |  | 27.27 |
Gentex Corporation |  | GNTX |  |  | 2.53 |  |  |  | 8.05 |
Analog Devices, Inc. |  | ADI |  |  | 7.56 |  |  |  | 15.05 |
Median: |  |  |  |  | 7.46 |  |  |  | 15.05 |
Mean: |  |  |  |  | 5.85 |  |  |  | 16.79 |
MKD Technology Inc. |  |  |  |  | 7.16 |  |  |  | 16.37 |

As the implied EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA for MKD Technology Inc are within the ranges of mean and median of selected comparable companies’ EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA respectively, the consideration for the MKD Technology Inc, from a financial point of view, is fair for the shareholders of Cetus Capital.

Required Vote

Approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. It is important for you to note that in the event that the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, then Cetus Capital will not consummate the Business Combination.

Recommendation of the Cetus Board

After careful consideration, the Cetus Board determined that the Business Combination is in the best interests of Cetus Capital and its stockholders. On the basis of the foregoing, the Cetus Board has approved and declared advisable the Business Combination and recommends that you vote or give instructions to vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal. Cetus Capital’s directors have interests that may be different from, or in addition to your interests as a stockholder. See the section titled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus for further information.

PROPOSAL No. 2
THE NASDAQ PROPOSAL

Overview

Cetus Capital is asking its stockholders to approve the Nasdaq Proposal in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a) and (d). Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the acquisition of another company if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (A) have, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock); or (B) the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of the stock or securities. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), stockholder approval is required for a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by an issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price that is less than the lower of (i) the closing price immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement, if the number of shares of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) to be issued equals to 20% or more of the common stock, or 20% or more of the voting power, outstanding before the issuance.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, PubCo may issue up to approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the former stockholders of MKD BVI and up to 10,883,829 PubCo Ordinary Shares to the former stockholders of Cetus Capital (including PubCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the PubCo Warrants) as part of the Business Combination. See the section titled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement — Consideration.” Because the number of PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to the former shareholders of MKD BVI in the Business Combination will constitute more than 20% of the outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock and more than 20% of outstanding voting power prior to such issuance, Cetus Capital may be required to obtain stockholder approval of such issuance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a).

Up to a maximum of approximately 23,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the total number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that will be issued to MKD BVI shareholders is “the sum of the Aggregate Merger Consideration less the amount of Closing Company Debt, plus the amount of Closing Company Cash, in each case, as reflected on the Closing Statement, such sum being then MULTIPLIED by the percentage of equity interest of the Company which MKD BVI directly or indirectly owns as of the Closing Date, and then DIVIDED by $10.” As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns 17,011,476 of the 27,278,652 issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan, or approximately 62.36%. The “Aggregate Merger Consideration” means $230,000,000 as stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement. Assuming no further adjustments result from the “Closing Company Debt” and the “Closing Company Cash,” and assuming that MKD BVI continues to own 62.36% of the equity interest of MKD Taiwan on the closing date of the Business Combination, an aggregate of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares will be issued to shareholders of MKD BVI in exchange for their shareholdings of MKD BVI.

Effect of Proposal on Current Stockholders

If the Nasdaq Proposal is adopted, PubCo would issue to the former shareholders of MKD BVI a number of PubCo Ordinary Shares representing more than 20% of the outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination. The issuance of such shares would result in significant dilution to the Cetus Capital stockholders and would afford such stockholders a smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value and aggregate book value of PubCo. If the Nasdaq Proposal is adopted, assuming that 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to the former stockholders of MKD BVI as consideration in the Business Combination, it is anticipated that the former MKD BVI shareholders will hold approximately 74.3% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares and the current Cetus Capital Public Stockholders will hold approximately 15.7% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination. This percentage assumes that no Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination and does not take into account any options or warrants to purchase shares of Cetus Common Stock (or PubCo Ordinary Shares) that will be outstanding following the Business Combination.

91

If the Nasdaq Proposal is not approved and Cetus Capital consummates the Business Combination on its current terms, Cetus Capital would be in violation of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) and (b) and potentially Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which could result in either the delisting of the securities of Cetus Capital from Nasdaq or the failure by Nasdaq to approve PubCo’s listing application. If Nasdaq delists the securities of Cetus Capital from trading on its exchange, the stockholders of Cetus Capital could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

| ● | a limited availability of market quotations for Cetus Capital’s securities;
| ● | reduced liquidity with respect to Cetus Capital’s securities;
| ● | a determination that Cetus Capital shares are a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in Cetus Capital’s securities to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for Cetus Capital securities;
| ● | a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for the post-transaction company; and
| ● | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

It is a condition to the obligations of Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan to close the Business Combination that the PubCo Ordinary Shares be approved for listing on Nasdaq. As a result, if the Nasdaq Proposal is not adopted, and Nasdaq does not approve PubCo’s listing application, the Business Combination may not be completed.

Vote Required for Approval

Assuming that a quorum is present at the Special Meeting, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting on this Proposal 2 and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve the Nasdaq Proposal. An abstention will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” Proposal 2.

This Proposal 2 is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, Proposal 2 will have no effect even if approved by Cetus Capital’s stockholders. Because stockholder approval of this Proposal 2 is a condition to completion of the Business Combination under the Business Combination Agreement, if this Proposal 2 is not approved by Cetus Capital’s stockholders, the Business Combination will not occur unless Cetus Capital and MKD Taiwan waive the applicable closing condition.

Recommendation of the Cetus Board

The Cetus Board recommends a vote “FOR” adoption of the Nasdaq Proposal.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of Cetus Capital’s directors or officers may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) or officer(s) between what he or they may believe is in the best interests of Cetus Capital and its stockholders and what he or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that stockholders vote for the proposals. See the section titled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination” for a further discussion.

92

PROPOSAL No. 3

The 2024 Plan provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate of 10% of the total issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately after the Closing of the Business Combination.

The following is a summary of certain terms and conditions of the 2024 Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2024 Plan, which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex C. You are encouraged to read the entirety of the 2024 Plan.

93

PROPOSAL NO. 4
THE PUBCO CHARTER PROPOSAL

The PubCo Charter Proposal, if approved, will approve the following material differences between the Existing Charter and PubCo’s proposed amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Proposed PubCo Charter”) to be in effect following the Closing of the Business Combination.

| ● | the name of the new public entity will be “MKDWell Tech Inc.” as opposed to “Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp.”;
| ● | the Existing Charter authorizes Cetus Capital to issue up to 54,000,000 shares of Cetus Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, of which 50,000,000 shares are Class A common stock and 4,000,000 shares are Class B common stock. The Proposed PubCo Charter will authorize PubCo to issue 100,000,000 shares of a par value of US$0.0001 each divided into (a) ordinary shares and (b) five (5) classes of preferred shares;
| ● | PubCo’s corporate existence is perpetual as opposed to Cetus Capital’s corporate existence terminating pursuant to a voluntary liquidation procedure if a business combination is not consummated within a specified period of time; and
| ● | the Proposed PubCo Charter does not include the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition corporations that the Existing Charter contains.

In the judgment of the Cetus Board, the PubCo Charter Proposal is desirable for the following reasons:

| ● | The name of the new public entity is desirable to reflect the Business Combination with MKD Taiwan and the combined business going forward.
| ● | The authorized increased share capital is in compliance with BVI laws and desirable for PubCo to have adequate authorized capital to facilitate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination, to provide support for PubCo’s growth and to provide flexibility for future corporate needs (including, if needed, as part of financing for future growth acquisitions); and
| ● | the provisions that relate to the operation of Cetus Capital as a blank check company prior to the consummation of its initial business combination would not be applicable after the Business Combination (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time).

This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Proposed PubCo Charter, as will be in effect assuming approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal and upon consummation of the Business Combination, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex B.

For a detailed comparison of the Existing Charter and the Proposed PubCo Charter, see “Comparison of Shareholders’ Rights.”

Resolution to be Voted Upon

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the following material differences between the Existing Charter and the Proposed PubCo Charter to be in effect following the Business Combination be approved in all respects:

| ● | the name of the new public entity will be “MKDWell Tech Inc.” as opposed to “Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp.”;

PROPOSAL NO. 5

THE ADVISORY PUBCO CHARTER PROPOSAL

Overview

In connection with the Business Combination, Cetus Capital is asking its stockholders to vote upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, proposals to approve certain governance provisions contained in the Proposed PubCo Charter. This separate vote is not otherwise required by Delaware law separate and apart from the PubCo Charter Proposal but, pursuant to SEC guidance, Cetus Capital is required to submit these provisions to its stockholders separately for approval, allowing stockholders the opportunity to present their separate views on important governance provisions. However, the stockholder votes regarding these proposals are advisory votes, and are not binding on Cetus Capital or the Cetus Board (separate and apart from the approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal). In the judgment of the Cetus Board, these provisions are necessary to adequately address the needs of PubCo. Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal (separate and apart from approval of the PubCo Charter Proposal).

Cetus Capital stockholders will be asked to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the following material differences between the Proposed PubCo Charter and the Existing Charter, which are being presented in accordance with the requirements of the SEC as separate sub-proposals:

| ● | Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal A – To change the name of the new public entity from “Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp.” to “MKDWell Tech Inc.”;

| ● | Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal B – To provide for the authorization in the Proposed PubCo Charter of a 100,000,000 shares of a par value of US$0.0001 each divided into (a) ordinary shares and (b) five (5) classes of preferred shares, rather the authorization by the Existing Charter of 54,000,000 shares of Cetus Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, of which 50,000,000 shares are Class A common stock and 4,000,000 shares are Class B common stock;

| ● | Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal C – To provide that PubCo’s corporate existence shall be perpetual as opposed to the corporate existence of Cetus Capital terminating pursuant to a voluntary liquidation procedure if a business combination is not consummated within a specified period of time; and

| ● | Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal D – To remove from the Proposed PubCo Charter the various provisions applicable only to special purpose acquisition corporations that the Existing Charter contains.

Reasons for the Advisory PubCo Charter Amendments

In the judgment of the Cetus Board, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposals are desirable for the following reasons:

| ● | The name of the new public entity is desirable to reflect the Business Combination with MKD Taiwan and the combined business going forward.

| ● | The authorized increased share capital is in compliance with BVI laws and desirable for PubCo to have adequate authorized capital to facilitate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination, to provide support for PubCo’s growth and to provide flexibility for future corporate needs (including, if needed, as part of financing for future growth acquisitions); and

| ● | the provisions that relate to the operation of Cetus Capital as a blank check company prior to the consummation of its initial business combination would not be applicable after the Business Combination (such as the obligation to dissolve and liquidate if a business combination is not consummated in a certain period of time).

Required Vote

Approval of the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposals requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The approval of the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposals is non-binding and not conditioned on any other proposal that is presented at the Special Meeting.

Recommendation of Cetus Board

The Cetus Board recommends a vote “FOR” adoption of the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 6

THE ADVISORY DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL

In connection with the Business Combination, Cetus Capital is asking its stockholders to vote upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, a proposal to approve, assuming the Business Combination Proposal is approved and adopted, the appointment of five directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will become directors of PubCo. The stockholder vote regarding this proposal is an advisory vote, and thus is not binding on Cetus Capital or the Cetus Board. Moreover, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of this proposal.

It is proposed that the Board of Directors of PubCo, immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination, consist of the following five directors: Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang, Mr. Chih-Hsiang Tang, Mr. Chung-Yi Sun, and Mr. Jung-Te Chang. Information regarding the foregoing proposed directors is set forth in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “PubCo’s Directors and Executive Officers After the Business Combination.”

If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Advisory Director Election Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting. The Business Combination is not conditioned upon the approval of the Advisory Director Election Proposal. Notwithstanding the approval of the Advisory Director Election Proposal, if the Business Combination is not consummated for any reason, the actions contemplated by the Advisory Director Election Proposal will not be effected.

Required Vote

Approval of the Advisory Director Election Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

PROPOSAL NO. 7

THE NTA AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

This is a proposal to amend the Existing Charter of Cetus Capital to expand the methods that Cetus Capital may employ to not become subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “NTA Amendment”). All shareholders are encouraged to read the proposed NTA Amendment in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp., detailing the NTA Amendment, is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D.

The NTA Requirement

The Existing Charter currently contains a provision relating to maintaining $5,000,001 in net tangible assets (the “NTA Requirement”). This provision is contained in Section 9.2(a), which provides that:

| ● | “Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, the Corporation shall provide all holders of Offering Shares with the opportunity to have their Offering Shares redeemed upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination pursuant to, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 9.2(b) and 9.2(c) (such rights of such holders to have their Offering Shares redeemed pursuant to such Sections, the “Redemption Rights”) hereof for cash equal to the applicable redemption price per share determined in accordance with Section 9.2(b) hereof (the “Redemption Price”); provided, however, that the Corporation will only redeem Offering Shares so long as (after such redemption), the Corporation’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (or any successor rule)), or of any entity that succeeds the Corporation as a public company, will be at least $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to the initial Business Combination upon consummation of the initial Business Combination (such limitation hereinafter called the “Redemption Limitation”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate, there shall be no Redemption Rights or liquidating distributions with respect to any warrant issued pursuant to the Offering.”

The purpose of this provision was to ensure that, in connection with its initial business combination, Cetus Capital would continue, as it has since the IPO, to be not subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC, and therefore not a “blank check company” as defined under Rule 419 of the Securities Act because it complied with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) (the “NTA Rule”).

Cetus Capital is proposing to amend its Existing Charter to replace Section 9.2(a) with a new Section 9.2(a) that reads as follows:

| ● | “Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, the Corporation shall provide all holders of Offering Shares with the opportunity to have their Offering Shares redeemed upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination pursuant to, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 9.2(b) and 9.2(c) (such rights of such holders to have their Offering Shares redeemed pursuant to such Sections, the “Redemption Rights”) hereof for cash equal to the applicable redemption price per share determined in accordance with Section 9.2(b) hereof (the “Redemption Price”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate, there shall be no Redemption Rights or liquidating distributions with respect to any warrant issued pursuant to the Offering.”

Cetus Capital is also proposing to amend its Existing Charter to remove references to the Redemption Limitation, as follows:

| ● | remove clause (ii) of Section 9.2(e), which currently provides that, if Cetus Capital offers to redeem the Public Shares in conjunction with a stockholder vote on an initial business combination, Cetus Capital shall only consummate such initial business combination if the Redemption Limitation is not exceeded;

| ● | remove Section 9.2(f), which currently provides that, if Cetus Capital conducts a tender offer pursuant to Section 9.2(b) of the Existing Charter, Cetus Capital shall consummate the related initial business combination only if the Redemption Limitation is not exceeded; and

| ● | remove the following language from the end of Section 9.7: “provided, however, that any such amendment will be voided, and this Article IV will remain unchanged, if any stockholders who wish to redeem are unable to redeem due to the Redemption Limitation.”

The NTA Rule is one of several exclusions from the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and Cetus Capital believes that it may, and intends to, rely on another exclusion, which relates to it being listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Rule 3a51-1(a)(2)) (the “Exchange Rule”).

Rule 419 blank check companies and “penny stock” issuers

Because the net proceeds of Cetus Capital’s IPO were to be used to complete an initial business combination with a target business that had not been selected at the time of the IPO, Cetus Capital may be deemed to be a “blank check company.” Under Rule 419 of the Securities Act the term “blank check company” means a company that (i) is a development stage company that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person; and (ii) is issuing “penny stock,” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act. Rule 3a51-1 sets forth that the term “penny stock” shall mean any equity security, unless it fits within certain enumerated exclusions including the NTA Rule and the Exchange Rule. Historically, special purpose acquisition companies have relied upon the NTA Rule to avoid being deemed a penny stock issuer. Like many special purpose acquisition companies, Cetus Capital included Section 9.2(a) its Existing Charter in order to ensure that through the consummation of its initial business combination, Cetus Capital would not be considered a penny stock issuer and therefore not a blank check company if no other exemption from the rule was available.

97

Reliance on Rule 3a51-1(a)(2).

The Exchange Rule excludes from the definition of “penny stock” a security that is registered, or approved for registration upon notice of issuance, on a national securities exchange, or is listed, or approved for listing upon notice of issuance, on an automated quotation system sponsored by a registered national securities association, that has established initial listing standards that meet or exceed the criteria set forth in the Exchange Rule. Cetus Capital’s securities are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and have been so listed since the consummation of its IPO. Cetus Capital believes that the Nasdaq Capital Market has initial listing standards that meet the criteria identified in the Exchange Rule and that it can therefore rely on the Exchange Rule to avoid being treated as a penny stock. Therefore, the NTA Requirement is unnecessary so long as Cetus Capital meets the requirements of the Exchange Rule.

Reasons for the Proposed NTA Requirement Amendment

Cetus Capital believes that it can rely on other available exclusions from the penny stock rules, more specifically, the Exchange Rule, that would not impose restrictions on Cetus Capital’s net tangible assets. While Cetus Capital does not believe this failure to satisfy the NTA Requirement subjects it to the SEC’s penny stock rules, as the NTA Requirement is included in the Existing Charter, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved, Cetus Capital may not be able to consummate its initial business combination.

Resolutions

The resolution to be put to the stockholders of Cetus Capital to consider and to vote upon at the meeting in relation to the NTA Amendment Proposal is as follows:

“RESOLVED, that the following amendments to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. be adopted:

| ● | Section 9.2(a) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: “Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, the Corporation shall provide all holders of Offering Shares with the opportunity to have their Offering Shares redeemed upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination pursuant to, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 9.2(b) and 9.2(c) (such rights of such holders to have their Offering Shares redeemed pursuant to such Sections, the “Redemption Rights”) hereof for cash equal to the applicable redemption price per share determined in accordance with Section 9.2(b) hereof (the “Redemption Price”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate, there shall be no Redemption Rights or liquidating distributions with respect to any warrant issued pursuant to the Offering.”

| ● | Section 9.2(e) shall be amended to remove clause (ii) thereof;

| ● | Section 9.2(f) shall be deleted in its entirety; and

| ● | The following language shall be removed from the end of Section 9.7: “provided, however, that any such amendment will be voided, and this Article IV will remain unchanged, if any stockholders who wish to redeem are unable to redeem due to the Redemption Limitation.”

Required Vote

Approval of the NTA Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of all issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The approval of the NTA Amendment Proposal is a condition to the adoption of the Business Combination Proposal and vice versa. Accordingly, if the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the NTA Amendment Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting.

Recommendation of the Cetus Capital Board

The Cetus Board recommends a vote “FOR” adoption of the NTA Amendment Proposal.

98

PROPOSAL NO. 8
THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

Purpose of the Adjournment Proposal

In the event there are not sufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the adoption of the Business Combination Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the PubCo Charter Proposal, the Advisory PubCo Charter Proposal, the NTA Amendment Proposal and the Advisory Director Election Proposal, the Cetus Board may adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date, or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies.

Cetus Capital has until the expiration of the Business Combination Period to consummate the Business Combination. If Cetus Capital anticipates that it may not be able to consummate the Business Combination on or prior to the then-applicable deadline for completing an initial business combination, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Cetus Capital may request that the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan deposit (or cause to be deposited) in the Trust Account on or prior to such deadline the requisite amount with respect to each extension period contemplated by the Existing Charter, which amount was originally $575,000 with respect to each three-month extension and which amount is currently $50,000 with respect to each one-month extension. Each such deposit shall be deemed to be a loan by the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (or their designee) to Cetus Capital, bearing interest at a rate of 5.27% per annum, and shall be evidenced by a promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the applicable lender.

Where the reason for requiring an extension is due to reasons solely attributable to that on the part of or within the sole control of either the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan, then the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (as the case may be) shall be solely responsible for the full amount of each such extension loan. Where the reason for requiring an extension is due to reasons attributable to both the Sponsor and MKD Taiwan, the Sponsor and MKD Taiwan shall each share equally in the amount for an extension loan. All such extension loans shall immediately be repaid by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor and/or MKD Taiwan (as the case may be) upon the earlier of the Closing or the expiry of the deadline for the consummation of Cetus Capital’s initial business combination.

In no event will Cetus Capital seek adjournment that would result in soliciting of proxies, having a stockholder vote, or otherwise consummating a business combination after the deadline for completing a business combination as set forth in the Existing Charter.

Required Vote

Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock as of the record date represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The approval and adoption of the Adjournment Proposal is not a condition for nor conditioned on the approval of any other Proposal at the Special Meeting.

Recommendation of the Cetus Capital Board

The Cetus Board recommends a vote “FOR” adoption of the Adjournment Proposal.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of (i) the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of Cetus Common Stock (excluding any redeemed shares), Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights (collectively, the “Cetus Securities”), (ii) the subsequent ownership and disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination, and (iii) the exercise of redemption rights by Cetus Capital stockholders that are U.S. Holders. In addition, the following includes a general discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to Cetus Capital and PubCo.

This discussion is based on provisions of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (whether final, temporary, or proposed), administrative rulings of the IRS, and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a holder as a result of the Business Combination or as a result of the ownership and disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares. In addition, this discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders nor does it take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such holder, and accordingly, is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, tax advice. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal 3.8% Medicare tax imposed on certain net investment income or any aspects of U.S. federal taxation other than those pertaining to the income tax, nor does it address any tax consequences arising under any U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax laws. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding such tax consequences in light of their particular circumstances.

No ruling has been requested or will be obtained from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination or any other related matter; thus, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the U.S. federal income tax treatment described below or that, if challenged, such treatment will be sustained by a court.

This summary is limited to considerations relevant to U.S. Holders that hold Cetus Securities and, after the completion of the Business Combination, PubCo Ordinary Shares, as “capital assets” within the meaning of section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to holders in light of their individual circumstances, including holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. tax laws, such as, for example:

| ● | banks or other financial institutions, underwriters, or insurance companies;
| ● | traders in securities who elect to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting;
| ● | real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies;
| ● | tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts;
| ● | expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;
| ● | subchapter S corporations, partnerships or other pass-through entities or investors in such entities;
| ● | dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies;
| ● | grantor trusts;
| ● | persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;
| ● | U.S. persons whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar;
| ● | persons who received Cetus Common Stock through the issuance of restricted stock under an incentive plan or through a tax-qualified retirement plan or otherwise as compensation;
| ● | persons who own (directly or through attribution) 5% or more (by vote or value) of the issued and outstanding Cetus Securities, or, after the Business Combination, the issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares);
| ● | holders holding Cetus Securities, or, after the Business Combination, PubCo Ordinary Shares, as a position in a “straddle,” as part of a “synthetic security” or “hedge,” as part of a “conversion transaction,” or other integrated investment or risk reduction transaction; or
| ● | the Sponsor or its affiliates.

As used in this proxy statement/prospectus, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Cetus Securities, and, after the Business Combination, PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

| ● | an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
| ● | a corporation (or other entity that is classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia;
| ● | an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or
| ● | a trust (i) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

100

If a partnership, including for this purpose any entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds Cetus Securities, and, after the completion of the Business Combination, PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder that is a partnership and the partners in such partnership should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination and the subsequent ownership and disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION. CETUS CAPITAL STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF PUBCO ORDINARY SHARES AFTER THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

Tax Residence of PubCo for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes.

A corporation organized under non-U.S. law, such as PubCo, is generally treated as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Under Section 7874 of the Code, a corporation otherwise treated as a foreign corporation may be treated as a U.S. corporation for such purposes (or may be subject to certain other adverse tax consequences) if it acquires, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the assets held, directly or indirectly, by a U.S. corporation. These rules apply only if certain conditions are met, including that the former shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold, by reason of their ownership of shares of that corporation, more than a specified percentage of the shares of the acquiring foreign corporation. The Treasury Regulations under Section 7874 further provide for a number of special rules that aggregate multiple acquisitions of U.S. corporations for purposes of Section 7874 that are conducted as part of a plan or conducted over a 36-month period, making it more likely that Section 7874 will apply to a foreign acquiring corporation.

Based on the percentage of the PubCo Ordinary Shares to be received by shareholders of Cetus Capital in the Business Combination, these conditions are not expected to be met and thus the Business Combination is not expected to cause PubCo to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or to otherwise be subject to Section 7874 of the Code. However, the ownership of PubCo for purposes of Section 7874 of the Code must be finally determined after the completion of the Business Combination, by which time there could be adverse changes to the relevant facts and circumstances. If PubCo were to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. tax purposes, PubCo and certain PubCo shareholders would be subject to significant adverse tax consequences, including a higher effective corporate income tax rate on PubCo and future withholding taxes on certain PubCo shareholders, depending on the application of any income tax treaty that might apply to reduce such withholding taxes, and holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares would be treated as holders of shares of a U.S. corporation.

However, even if PubCo were respected as a foreign corporation under Section 7874, PubCo may be limited in using its equity to engage in future acquisitions of U.S. corporations over a 36-month period following the Business Combination. If PubCo were to be treated as acquiring substantially all of the assets of a U.S. corporation within a 36-month period after the Business Combination, Section 7874 would exclude certain shares of PubCo attributable to the Business Combination for purposes of determining whether Section 7874 applies to that subsequent acquisition, making it more likely that Section 7874 would apply to such subsequent acquisition.

In addition, Section 7874 of the Code can limit the ability of the acquired U.S. corporation and its U.S. affiliates to use U.S. tax attributes (including net operating losses and certain tax credits) to offset U.S. taxable income resulting from certain transactions, as well as result in certain other adverse tax consequences, even if the acquiring foreign corporation is respected as a foreign corporation for purposes of Section 7874. Specifically, Section 7874 can apply in this manner if (i) the foreign corporation acquires, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the properties held directly or indirectly by a U.S. corporation, (ii) after the acquisition, the former shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold at least 60% (by either vote or value) but less than 80% (by vote and value) of the shares of the foreign acquiring corporation by reason of holding shares in the acquired U.S. corporation and certain other conditions are met.

101

If such conditions are met, PubCo and certain of PubCo’s shareholders may be subject to adverse tax consequences including, but not limited to, restrictions on the use of tax attributes with respect to “inversion gain” recognized over a 10-year period following the transaction, disqualification of dividends paid from preferential “qualified dividend income” rates and the requirement that any U.S. corporation owned by PubCo include as “base erosion payments” that may be subject to a minimum U.S. federal income tax any amounts treated as reductions in gross income paid to certain related foreign persons. Furthermore, certain “disqualified individuals” (including officers and directors of a U.S. corporation) may be subject to an excise tax on certain stock-based compensation held thereby at a rate of 20%.

Based on the percentage of PubCo Ordinary Shares to be received by shareholders of Cetus Capital in the Business Combination, these conditions are not expected to be met and thus the limitations and other rules described above are not expected to apply to PubCo after the Business Combination. The above determination, however, is subject to detailed regulations (the application of which is uncertain in various respects and could be impacted by future changes in such Treasury regulations, with possible retroactive effect) and is subject to certain factual uncertainties.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that PubCo will not be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7874 of the Code.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination

Subject to the discussion below of Section 367(a) of the Code, the exchange by a U.S. Holder of Cetus Securities for PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Merger should qualify as an exchange described in Section 351(a) of the Code. Assuming such qualification, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its Cetus Securities in the Merger for PubCo Ordinary Shares generally should not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange, subject to Section 367(a) of the Code discussed below. In such case, assuming gain recognition is not required under Section 367(a) of the Code as described below, the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Merger by a U.S. Holder should be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the Cetus Securities surrendered in the Merger in exchange therefor.

The provisions of Section 351(a) of the Code are complex and qualification as a non-recognition transaction thereunder could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur following the Business Combination that are beyond Cetus Capital or PubCo’s control. For example, if more than 20% of the PubCo Ordinary Shares were subject to an arrangement or agreement to be sold or disposed of at the time of their issuance in the Business Combination, one of the requirements for Section 351(a) treatment would be violated. However, we do not expect that any of the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued in the Business Combination that will be subject to contractual restrictions on transfer will be subject to an arrangement or agreement by its owner to sell or dispose of such shares upon the issuance of those shares in the Business Combination.

However, Section 367(a) of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder impose certain additional requirements for qualifying under Section 351 of the Code with respect to transactions where a U.S. person exchanges stock or securities in a U.S. corporation for stock or securities in a non-U.S. (“foreign”) corporation . U.S. Holders of Cetus Securities will be deemed to transfer such securities to PubCo in exchange for PubCo Ordinary Shares, so that these requirements will apply.

In general, Section 367(a) of the Code requires a U.S. Holder to recognize any gain, but not loss, realized on the exchange of Cetus Securities for PubCo Ordinary Shares unless certain requirements are met. For the Business Combination to meet these additional requirements, certain reporting requirements must be satisfied and (i) no more than 50% of both the total voting power and the total value of the stock of the transferee foreign corporation is received, in the aggregate, by the “U.S. transferors” (as defined in the Treasury regulations and computed taking into account direct, indirect and constructive ownership) in the transaction; (ii) no more than 50% of each of the total voting power and the total value of the stock of the transferee foreign corporation is owned, in the aggregate, immediately after the transaction by “U.S. persons” (as defined in the Treasury regulations) that are either officers or directors or “five-percent target shareholders” (as defined in the Treasury regulations and computed taking into account direct, indirect and constructive ownership) of the transferred U.S. corporation; and (iii) the “active trade or business test” as defined in Treasury regulations Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(3) must be satisfied. The active trade or business test generally requires (A) PubCo or any qualified subsidiary of PubCo to be engaged in an “active trade or business” outside of the United States for the 36-month period immediately before the transfer and neither the transferors nor PubCo to have an intention to substantially dispose of or discontinue such trade or business and (B) the fair market value of PubCo to be at least equal to the fair market value of Cetus, as specifically determined for purposes of Section 367 of the Code, at the time of the transfer. For these purposes, a qualified subsidiary is a foreign corporation whose stock is at least 80-percent owned (by total voting power and total value), directly or indirectly, by the transferee foreign corporation. Because MKD BVI is expected to own approximately 62.36% of the issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan, MKD Taiwan will not constitute a qualified subsidiary under these rules. Therefore, it is currently expected that the “active trade or business test” will not be met and that, as a result, the Merger is expected to fail to satisfy the applicable requirements.

102

If the Business Combination qualifies as a transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, and, as expected, the requirements of Section 367(a) of the Code are not satisfied, a U.S. Holder would recognize gain (but not loss) in the Business Combination in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of the fair market value of the PubCo Ordinary Shares received by such holder, over (ii) such holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Cetus Securities exchanged therefor. Any such gain would be capital gain, and generally would be long-term capital gain if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Cetus Securities exceeds one year at the time of the Business Combination. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, currently are subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Securities have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. Furthermore, a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the PubCo Ordinary Shares received in the Business Combination would not include the holding period for the Cetus Securities exchanged therefor.

If the Business Combination fails to qualify for tax-deferred treatment for a reason other than the application of Section 367(a) of the Code, the Business Combination will be a fully taxable transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes. In that case, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its Cetus Securities for the consideration under the Business Combination will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the fair market value of the PubCo Ordinary Shares received and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Cetus Securities exchanged. A U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the PubCo Ordinary Shares received will be the fair market value of those securities on the date the U.S. Holder receives them. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the PubCo Ordinary Shares received pursuant to the Business Combination will begin on the day after the date the U.S. Holder receives such PubCo Ordinary Shares. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Cetus Securities exceeds one year at the time of the Business Combination. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, currently are subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Securities have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Additionally, if U.S. Holders of Cetus Rights were to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as receiving PubCo Ordinary Shares in discharge of Cetus Capital’s obligations under the Cetus Rights (instead of as receiving such PubCo Ordinary Shares in exchange for transferring the Cetus Rights to PubCo), the Business Combination would generally be a fully taxable transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes with respect to the Cetus Rights. Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Cetus Rights, there can be no assurance on the characterization of the Cetus Rights that would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders of Cetus Rights are urged to consult with their tax advisors regarding the treatment of their Cetus Rights in connection with the Business Combination.

U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular consequences to them of the exchange of Cetus Securities for PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination, the qualification of the Business Combination as a tax-free exchange, and the potential application of Section 367(a) to the Business Combination, and the consequences of exchanging Cetus Rights.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights

In the event that a U.S. Holder elects to redeem its Cetus Common Stock for cash, the treatment of the transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as sale or exchange of the Cetus Common Stock under Section 302 of the Code or is treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code with respect to the U.S. Holder. If the redemption qualifies as a sale or exchange of the Cetus Common Stock, the U.S. Holder will be treated as recognizing capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the redemption and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Cetus Common Stock surrendered in such redemption transaction. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Cetus Common Stock redeemed exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Common Stock may prevent a U.S. Holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirement. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

103

If the redemption does not qualify as a sale or exchange of Cetus Common Stock, the U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution. Such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from Cetus Capital’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Cetus Common Stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Cetus Common Stock. Dividends paid to a U.S. Holder that is taxable as a corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations) and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. However, it is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the Cetus Common Stock may prevent a U.S. Holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.

Whether a redemption qualifies for sale or exchange treatment will depend largely on the total number of shares of Cetus Common Stock treated as held by the U.S. Holder (including any Cetus Common Stock constructively owned by the U.S. Holder as a result of owning Cetus Rights) relative to all of the shares of Cetus Common Stock outstanding both before and after the redemption. The redemption of Cetus Common Stock generally will be treated as a sale or exchange of the Cetus Common Stock (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the U.S. Holder’s interest in Cetus Capital or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the foregoing tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder takes into account not only Cetus Common Stock actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also shares of Cetus Common Stock that are constructively owned by it. A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to stock owned directly, stock owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder, as well as any stock the U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include Cetus Common Stock which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Cetus Rights. In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, (i) the percentage of Cetus Capital’s outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately following the redemption of the Cetus Common Stock must be less than 80% of the percentage of Cetus Capital’s outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately before the redemption, (ii) the U.S. Holder’s percentage ownership (including constructive ownership) of the outstanding Cetus Capital stock (both voting and nonvoting) immediately after the redemption must be less than 80% of such percentage ownership (including constructive ownership) immediately before the redemption; and (iii) the U.S. Holder must own (including constructive ownership), immediately after the redemption, less than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of Cetus Capital entitled to vote. There will be a complete termination of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of the shares of Cetus Common Stock actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the shares of Cetus Common Stock actually owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed and the U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of stock owned by certain family members and the U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other Cetus Common Stock. The redemption of the Cetus Common Stock will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if a U.S. Holder’s conversion results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in Cetus Capital. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in Cetus Capital will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority stockholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.” A U.S. Holder should consult with its own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption.

If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then the redemption will be treated as a corporate distribution. After the application of those rules regarding corporate distributions, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. Holder in the redeemed Cetus Common Stock will be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining Cetus Common Stock, or, if it has none, to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Cetus Rights or possibly in other Cetus Securities constructively owned by it. Shareholders who hold different blocks of Cetus Common Stock (generally, Cetus Common Stock purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares

The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares to U.S. Holders who receive such PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination.

Distribution on PubCo Ordinary Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below “— Passive Foreign Investment Company,” the gross amount of any distribution on PubCo Ordinary Shares that is made out of PubCo’s current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will generally be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received by such U.S. Holder. Any such dividends paid to corporate U.S. Holders generally will not qualify for the dividends received deduction that may otherwise be allowed under the Code.

Dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation, provided that certain holding period requirements and other conditions are satisfied. For these purposes, a non-U.S. corporation will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that shares listed on the NASDAQ (on which PubCo intends to apply to list the PubCo Ordinary Shares) will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Even if the PubCo Ordinary Shares are listed on NASDAQ, there can be no assurance that the PubCo Ordinary Shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in future years. Non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code (dealing with the deduction for investment interest expense) will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of PubCo’s status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. Finally, PubCo will not constitute a qualified foreign corporation for purposes of these rules if it is a PFIC for the taxable year in which it pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. See the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company.”

The amount of any dividend paid in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency distributed by PubCo, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is includible in the U.S. Holder’s income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt. Generally, a U.S. Holder should not recognize any foreign currency gain or loss if the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars on the date the payment is received. However, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date the U.S. Holder includes the dividend payment in income to the date such U.S. Holder actually converts the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss. That currency exchange income or loss (if any) generally will be income or loss from U.S. sources for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

To the extent that the amount of any distribution made by PubCo on the PubCo Ordinary Shares exceeds PubCo’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the U.S. Holder’s PubCo Ordinary Shares, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds the U.S. Holder’s tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange as described below under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares.” However, PubCo may not calculate earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. In such event, a U.S. Holder should expect to generally treat distributions PubCo makes as dividends.

105

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares

Subject to the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company,” a U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption, or other taxable disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such PubCo Ordinary Shares. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in the PubCo Ordinary Shares exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or exchange of PubCo Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

Certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to a U.S. Holder if PubCo or any of its subsidiaries is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which the U.S. Holder holds PubCo Ordinary Shares. A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for any taxable year (a) if at least 75% of its gross income consists of passive income, such as dividends, interest, rents and royalties (except for rents and royalties earned in the active conduct of a trade or business), and gains on the disposition of property that produces such income, or (b) if at least 50% of the average value of its assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income (including for this purpose its pro rata share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the interest, by value). For purposes of these rules, interest income earned by a corporation would be considered to be passive income and cash or cash equivalents held by a corporation would be considered to be a passive asset. Pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (1) no predecessor of the foreign corporation was a PFIC; (2) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (3) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those years.

Whether PubCo or any of its subsidiaries is treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a factual determination that must be made annually at the close of each taxable year and, thus, is subject to significant uncertainty. Among other factors, fluctuations in the market price of PubCo Ordinary Shares and how, and how quickly, PubCo uses liquid assets and cash may influence whether PubCo or any of its subsidiaries is treated as PFIC. Accordingly, PubCo is unable to determine whether PubCo or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC for the taxable year of the Business Combination or for future taxable years, and there can be no assurance that PubCo or any of its subsidiaries will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. In the event that PubCo meets the PFIC income or asset test for the current taxable year ending December 31, 2024, the start-up exception discussed above may be available, but there can be no guarantee in this regard.

Although a PFIC determination is made annually, if PubCo is treated as a PFIC, such determination will generally apply for subsequent years to a U.S. Holder who held (or was deemed to hold) PubCo Ordinary Shares during any taxable year (or portion thereof) that it was a PFIC, whether or not PubCo is a PFIC in those subsequent years (unless the holder makes a valid QEF election or mark-to-market election for such holder’s First PFIC Holding Year (defined below)).

If PubCo is determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder and the U.S. Holder did not make a timely and effective QEF election for PubCo’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) PubCo Ordinary Shares (such taxable year as it relates to each U.S. Holder, the “First PFIC Holding Year”) or a “mark-to- market” election, each as described below, then such holder will generally be subject to special rules (the “Default PFIC Regime”) with respect to:

| ● | any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on the sale, redemption or other disposition of its PubCo Ordinary Shares; and
| ● | any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in respect of PubCo Ordinary Shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period for such securities).

106

Under the Default PFIC Regime:

| ● | the U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for its PubCo Ordinary Shares (taking into account the relevant holding period of the Cetus Securities exchanged therefor);
| ● | the amount of gain allocated to the U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of the first taxable year in which PubCo is a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;
| ● | the amount of gain allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. Holder and included in such U.S. Holder’s holding period will be taxed at the highest marginal tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. Holder; and
| ● | an additional amount equal to the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the U.S. Holder in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year of such U.S. Holder’s holding period.

If PubCo is determined to be a PFIC, a U.S. Holder may avoid the Default PFIC Regime with respect to its PubCo Ordinary Shares (but not PubCo UPOs) by making a timely and effective “qualified electing fund” election under Section 1295 of the Code (a “QEF election”) for such holder’s First PFIC Holding Year. In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election with respect to PubCo Ordinary Shares, a U.S. Holder must receive certain information from PubCo. PubCo does not intend to make such information available; therefore, it is anticipated that U.S. Holders will not be able to make a QEF election.

However, if a U.S. Holder, at the close of its taxable year, owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC that are treated as marketable shares, the U.S. Holder may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such shares for such taxable year. If the U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election for such holder’s First PFIC Holding Year, such holder will generally not be subject to the Default PFIC Regime in respect to its PubCo Ordinary Shares as long as such shares continue to be treated as marketable shares. Instead, in general, the U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income for each year that PubCo is treated as a PFIC the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its PubCo Ordinary Shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its shares. The U.S. Holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of its PubCo Ordinary Shares over the fair market value of its shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The U.S. Holder’s basis in its PubCo Ordinary Shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the PubCo Ordinary Shares in a taxable year in which PubCo is treated as a PFIC will be treated as ordinary income. Special tax rules may also apply if a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election for a taxable year after such holder’s First PFIC Holding Year. Currently, a mark-to-market election may not be made with respect to PubCo UPOs.

The mark-to-market election is available for stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, including Nasdaq. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a mark-to-market election in respect to PubCo Ordinary Shares under their particular circumstances.

PubCo is expected to be a holding company which conducts certain of its business activities through a foreign subsidiary. If PubCo is a PFIC and, at any time, its foreign subsidiary is classified as a PFIC, U.S. Holders would generally be deemed to own a portion of the shares of such lower-tier PFIC, and generally could incur liability for the deferred tax and interest charge under the Default PFIC Regime described above if PubCo receives a distribution from, or disposes of all or part of PubCo’s interest in, the lower-tier PFIC or the U.S. Holders otherwise were deemed to have disposed of an interest in the lower-tier PFIC. A mark-to-market election generally would not be available with respect to such lower-tier PFIC. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax issues raised by lower-tier PFICs.

A U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the U.S. Holder, may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF or mark-to-market election is made) with such U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax return and provide such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department. The rules dealing with PFICs are very complex and are affected by various factors in addition to those described above. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to PubCo Ordinary Shares under their particular circumstances.

107

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends received by U.S. Holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares (including constructive dividends), and the proceeds received on the disposition of PubCo Ordinary Shares effected within the United States (and, in certain cases, outside the United States), in each case, other than U.S. Holders that are exempt recipients (such as corporations). Information reporting requirements will also apply to redemptions from U.S. Holders of Cetus Common Stock. Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent or the U.S. Holder’s broker) or is otherwise subject to backup withholding.

Certain U.S. Holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of the applicable dollar threshold are required to report information to the IRS relating to PubCo Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for PubCo Ordinary Shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), by attaching a complete IRS Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return, for each year in which they hold PubCo Ordinary Shares. In addition to these requirements, U.S. Holders may be required to annually file FinCEN Report 114 (Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts) with the U.S. Department of Treasury. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding information reporting requirements relating to their ownership of PubCo Ordinary Shares.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or credit against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

British Virgin Islands Taxation

Under the current laws of the BVI, PubCo is not subject to income, corporation or capital gains tax in the BVI. In addition, PubCo’s payment of dividends after the Business Combination, if any, is not subject to withholding tax in the BVI.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND REORGANIZATION

MKD Taiwan was incorporated in Taiwan in September 2006. Subsequently, as part of our business expansion, we incorporated MKD Samoa in 2010 to serve as an intermediate holding company, and we also incorporated MKD Shanghai in China in 2011 to expand into the Mainland China automobile market. Our initial focus was on business marketing and product design, and during that time our production was mainly fulfilled by other contract manufacturers in Taiwan and Mainland China. In order to meet our customers’ customized production goals and to continue to expand our production capacity and scope in China, we purchased land to build a production base in 2018 and incorporated MKD Jiaxing to operate such facility.

MKD Taiwan conducted a share offering in 2015 to investors in Taiwan to raise working capital. In December 2022, pursuant to requirements from PRC regulators, certain working capital loans from our shareholder and senior management, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang, were capitalized and converted into an equity interest of 42% in MKD Jiaxing in December 2022. After several years of development from our early days, we have gradually enlarged our business and capital scale. Prior to May 2023, the corporate structure of MKD Taiwan was as follows:

In May 2023, for the purpose of the Business Combination, MKD Taiwan held a shareholders’ meeting to seek approval from the shareholders of MKD Taiwan to, among others, (i) approve the business combination with Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp., (ii) approve the acquisition by share swap of MKD Taiwan by MKD BVI as part of the reorganization for the business combination with Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp., and (iii) the acquisition of the remaining 42% equity interest in MKD Jiaxing by MKD Taiwan.

In connection with the shareholders’ meeting, although the proposal of acquisition by share swap of MKD Taiwan by MKD BVI was not approved, MKD commenced a reorganization by way of share acquisition, in which MKD BVI, a shell company newly incorporated on March 30, 2023 and solely owned by our director and chief executive officer, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, commenced acquiring shares of MKD Taiwan directly from MKD Taiwan shareholders, in exchange for proportionate shares of MKD BVI which are issued to MKD Taiwan shareholders. MKD BVI is meant to be a redomestication platform for MKD Taiwan shareholders to exchange their MKD Taiwan shares for MKD BVI shares. See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for a list of the major shareholders of MKD BVI. Each MKD Taiwan shareholder who accepted the offer received one MKD BVI share for each MKD Taiwan share they held. As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns approximately 62.36% of the issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan.

110

On June 20, 2023, we entered into a business combination agreement with Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp., and in connection therewith, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang incorporated MKDWELL Technology Inc., or PubCo, in the BVI, to serve as the publicly traded company of our Group following closing of the Business Combination. Concurrently, PubCo incorporated Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 in the BVI, solely for the purpose of being merged with MKD BVI and Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. respectively. Following the consummation of such mergers, and immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, our corporate structure is expected to be as follows. “Other Existing MKD Taiwan Shareholders” refer to the existing shareholders of MKD Taiwan who did not participate in the Taiwan Reorganization and will continue to own 37.64% of MKD Taiwan after the Business Combination based on their direct ownership of the shares of MKD Taiwan.

OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

We aspire to provide best-in-class products and services to our clients. We believe that we have the following advantages which distinguishes us from other industry peers:

We have built an extensive product ecosystem which provides an array of functionalities and customization for our customers.

We were established in Taiwan’s Hsinchu Science Park in 2006. This science and technology industrial park is not only a hub for semiconductor chip manufacturing, but is also a gathering ground for high-tech product design talent. Therefore, at the beginning of our establishment, the main goal was to develop automotive peripheral electronics products. After accumulating 17 years of product development, using Embedded System Design technology to develop our self-owned small operating system and our self-owned product development chain, we utilized such core capability to gradually develop other automotive electronics and applications, growing our product offering from the initial range of car audio, car instrumentation board, car body control system, car navigation and audio-visual entertainment system, (2G/3G/4G/5G) car communication system, car seat controller, car cameras, car ECU control system, to more advanced integration of such paraphernalia and functionalities, which when combined with sensor controls and communication systems onboard the vehicle, enable all automotive electronics to interact, communicate with each other and connect to the Internet, thereby achieving VIoT (Vehicle Internet of Things).

Concurrently with the development of this technology, we have developed a series of products and applied these products to luxury business vehicles, camper vans, and logistics vehicles. We have created an ecosystem connecting equipment terminals to the cloud for seamless usage and application. The following diagrams illustrate the application scenario of our product ecosystem on a camper van, using cellphone webapp control of all in-vehicle functionalities.

111

We have cultivated a strong brand name and have excellent collaborative relationships with our customers and suppliers.

We have carefully cultivated the “MKDWELL” brand, which we have trademarked, and we use this brand to establish interactive and collaborative relationships with upstream and downstream suppliers and customers, winning praise and recognition from our customers and partners, gradually increasing our position in the market through the promotion of our self-owned branding and goodwill.

We have our own manufacturing facilities and production capabilities.

We purchased approximately 9,064 square meters of industrial land in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, China, and built a production facility with an area of about 14,960 square meters in 2020 and purchased electronic production automation equipment for full-process production. Such manufacturing capabilities enable us to seamlessly integrate our services into our customers’ requirements and workflow and improve customer fulfilment requirements.

Our manufacturing facility in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, China.

OUR GROWTH STRATEGIES

Massive and continually growing market opportunities in the automobile industry.

The automobile industry we operate in has been undergoing electrification since 2016. From traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) car electrification, hybrid cars, to new energy vehicles, automobiles everywhere will congregate on the pathway of electrification. According to TrendForce statistics, global car sales in 2022 were 81.05 million, a year-on-year decline of 0.1%, almost flat compared to 2021. It is estimated that global car sales will have a chance to recover in 2023, reaching 84.1 million, a year-on-year increase of 3.8%. In 2022, the main market shares were China (33.2%), the USA (17%), Japan (5.1%), India (5.4%), Western Europe (14.5%), Eastern Europe (3.6%), and others (21.2%). As of 2022, the global car ownership was 1.446 billion, with China accounting for 302.1 million (20.89%), the USA 283.2 million (19.58%), Japan 79.1 million (5.47%), Russia 53.5 million (3.7%), and Germany 52.9 million (3.66%). This suggests that for both new automobiles or existing automobiles, the pre-installation market or after-market will continue to yield considerable market opportunities and potential for development. MKD’s products are generally used for automobiles manufactured in Mainland China, which would be sold in Mainland China and also exported globally. Hence, while MKD’s direct customers are generally situated in Mainland China, the indirect users of MKD’s principal products are located worldwide, and we believe MKD’s performance and future growth will be strongly related to car purchasing trends globally.

Creating differentiated technology and crafting top-notch user experiences.

We apply IoT technology to achieve intelligence in cars. In luxury business vehicles and camper vehicles, we use IoT terminal devices to achieve remote control and AI adaptive adjustments for a comfortable driving experience. This allows users to be able to discern the entire vehicle’s operating status through voice, body perception, mobile control, or control screens, whether in-vehicle, near-vehicle or remotely. Through OTA’s online updates, passengers can thus continue to enjoy the most up-to-date and cutting-edge driving, riding and travel experience.

Our LiDAR and AIoT artificial intelligence offerings.

We use LiDAR technology to enhance the cargo loading process and detection of changes in cargo on logistics vehicles. By combining terminal algorithms with cloud algorithms, our systems and products provide intelligent cargo loading suggestions and cargo safety detection functionalities on logistics vehicles. This allows business owners to easily check on and control the cargo loading and transportation status with mobile tools.

COMPETITION

The automotive electronics industry and the industrial electronics industry in which we operate in Asia is a competitive one. If companies do not continuously optimize their product portfolios, improve research and development efficiency and technical capabilities, and increase production capabilities, it will be difficult to achieve good operational and financial performance. Therefore, facing this competitive situation, many companies choose to compete by cutting prices, imitating successful products, cutting corners on the design and development process, and lowering product specifications to enhance corporate competitiveness. We are based in Asia, where this competition is intensifying, and in order to distinguish ourselves from our competition, we must invest deeply into product research and development and software.

Considering the competitive dynamics in Asia, we have made adjustments to our product portfolio and employed AIoT technical capabilities combined with cloud software and cellphone applications to develop a series of products for use in automobiles, campers, luxury business vehicles, and logistics vehicles. We believe that proper utilization of cloud and IoT technology for future product development will be the key to success. Moreover, we believe that MKD has gradually mastered crucial technical capabilities and is able to use such technical ability for business expansion.

Mastering the relevant IoT technical capabilities and cloud applications and promoting our products in non-Asian regions, such as North America, Europe, and the Middle East will effectively enable us to supplant the competitive landscape of Asia, thereby increasing product sales and profitability.

Major Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Market demand and supply

The automotive industry market we are in has continued to develop and incorporate electronics since 2016. From traditional automotive electronics, gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles to new energy vehicles, most automotives these days are inseparable from automotive electronics. According to TrendForce statistics, in 2022 global auto sales are 81.05 million units, with an annual decline of 0.1%, which is almost the same as the sales in 2021. It is estimated that the global auto market sales will have the potential to resume growth in 2023, reaching 84.1 million units, with an annual increase of 3.8%. The major market shares in 2022 are China (33.2%), the United States (17%), Japan (5.1%), India (5.4%), Western Europe (14.5%), Eastern Europe (3.6%) and others (21.2%). As of 2022, the global car population will be 1.446 billion units, with China (302.1 million; 20.89%), the United States (283.2 million; 19.58%), Japan (79.1 million; 5.47%), and Russia (53.5 million; 3.7%) , and Germany (052.9 million; 3.66%). It can be seen that for both new automotives or current in-use automotives, both the pre-installation market and the after-market can offer immense market opportunities and development potential. However, the competition in the automotive electronics industry has intensified, with the emergence of homogeneous suppliers and the participation of automobile factory joint ventures. Chip supply and component shortages have also disrupted the global supply chain and cost of raw materials has risen to cause great difficulty in satisfying the demand for automotive products. Our sales performance may thus be affected due to the above mentioned trends.

While supply chains relating to certain industries, especially the semiconductor and chip-making sector, have been disrupted in recent years due to the COVID pandemic and the Russo-Ukraine war, MKD has not been directly affected by supply chain disruptions brought about by such factors, or by the restrictions under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. MKD’s operations do not require industrial input from Russian, Ukraine or Uyghur suppliers. MKD has not experienced significant supply chain disruptions that have materially affected its business operations in the past two years and does not expect any such disruptions in the short term. Nevertheless, MKD’s management believes that if such disruptions do arise in the future, especially as it pertains to the supply of integrated circuits, passive components and metals, which are used in MKD’s production processes, such developments may have a material adverse impact on MKD’s operations. As such, MKD is mindful of the need to mitigate the impact of any such disruptions, including to maintain a wide network of current and potential suppliers to whom MKD can look to in the event alternative sources are required.

The nature of MKD’s business which is tied to demand for camper vans could result in operating losses during downturns.

The RV and camper van industry is cyclical and is influenced by many national and regional economic and demographic factors, including: (a) overall consumer confidence and the level of discretionary consumer spending; (b) population and employment trends; and (c) general economic conditions, such as GDP growth rates. As a result of these factors, MKD’s sales and results of operations may fluctuate in the future. The spread of COVID-19 in China dampened economic growth in 2022. Even though the pandemic has since abated, China’s recovery has been slow, in part as a result of unresolved real estate problems, with negative cross-border spillovers. The actual GDP growth rate in the first quarter of 2023 was approximately 4.5%, according to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, and youth unemployment rate increased from 17.3% in January 2023 to 21.3% in June 2023. MKD’s management believes that such macro-economic trends have contributed to the slowdown in demand for its products and the financial underperformance of MKD in 2023.

Our ability to attract and retain customers

We use product innovation technology and application scenarios to attract and retain customers. Hence, if we no longer invest in the research and development of innovative technologies and broad product application scenarios, this may lead to decline in the attractiveness of our products and the loss of customers, which will result in a decline of sale performance and profits. Therefore, continuous and diversified product innovation, technology research and development and diversification of product applications are important key factors for attracting and retaining customers.

We rely on regular new product releases and technical exchanges with customers so that customers can continue to understand our innovation capabilities. If we are unable to communicate with customers regularly and continuously on product technologies and product releases, this may lead to a drop in confidence in MKD’s technical capabilities, which may result in customer loss and a decline in sales and profits.

Our total revenues increased by US$0.52 million, or 16.4% from US$3.15 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$3.67 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily attributable to the increase of sales of manufactured electronic products and commissioned processing service, partially offset by the decrease of rental income and other income.

Revenues from our sales of manufactured electronic products increased by US$0.79 million, or 50.9%, from US$1.54 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$2.33 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in products revenues was mainly contributed to the increased sales of intelligent vehicle control system due to the fact that new customers and new orders are mainly concentrated in this type of products.

Revenues from our commissioned processing service increased by US$0.08 million, or 8.7%, from US$0.87 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.94 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly due to one of our major customers was expanding its business in 2023 and increased the demand of service.

Rental income decreased by US$0.09 million, or 25.1%, from US$0.36 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.27 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly due to a decrease in leasehold area resulting from the expiration of two lease contracts in 2023.

Revenues from others decreased by US$0.26 million, or 66.0%, from US$0.39 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.13 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly due to reduced electricity demand from lessees in consistent with the decrease in leasehold area.

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues primarily consists of (i) direct materials, labor costs and manufacturing overheads associated with manufactured electronic products, (ii) direct labor costs and manufacturing overheads associated with commissioned processing service, (iii) depreciation of leased property, and (iv) other cost related to the business operation.

124

Our cost of revenues increased by US$0.86 million, or 40.4% from US$2.13 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$3.00 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in our direct material cost with respect to manufactured electronic products and an increase in labor cost due to the expansion of production scale and the increase in employee basic wages, which are in consistent with the increase in revenues from our sales of manufactured electronic products and commissioned processing service.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Gross profit represents our revenues less cost of revenues. Gross profit margin represents our gross profit as a percentage of our revenues.

Gross profit decreased by US$0.35 million, or 33.9% from US$1.02 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.67 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, and gross profit margin decreased from 32.3% in 2022 to 18.4% in 2023, primarily due to (i) the decrease in gross profit of commissioned processing service attribute to the preferential sales prices we provided to major customers in order to maintain cooperative relationship, (ii) the increase in labor costs.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses primarily consist of: (i) salaries and benefits for sales personnel, (ii) freight expenses, (iii) office expenses, (iv) rental and depreciation allocated to selling department, and (v) certain other expenses.

Our selling expenses remained relatively stable from US$0.24 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.24 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to an increase of US$0.03 million in salaries and benefits for sales personnel and offset by a decrease of US$0.03 in quality inspection fee as the reduction of customer’s special requirements of quality inspections on our products in 2023.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of: (i) professional service fees, (ii) salaries and benefits for general and administrative personnel, (iii) rental and depreciation allocated to general and administrative department; and (iv) other corporate expenses.

Our general and administrative expenses increased by US$0.53 million, or 55.6% from US$0.96 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$1.49 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to the increase of US$0.78 million in professional service fees mainly including audit fees and counsel fees related to the Business Combination, partially offset by the reversal of US$0.36 million in credit loss due to the recovery of accounts receivables.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses primarily include (i) salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, (ii) material and supplies expenses in relation to research and development activities, (iii) rental and depreciation allocated to the research and development department, (iv) technological development service fee, and (v) certain other expense.

Our research and development expenses increased by US$0.06 million, or 8.2% from US$0.72 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.78 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to an increase of US$0.10 million in material consumable due to the increase in demand for modification and testing of projects, partially offset by a reduction of US$0.03 million in technology service fee due to a product development project completed in the first half of 2023.

Interest expenses, net

Interest expenses, net consists of interest expenses for borrowings from banks and related parties, financing leases, and interest income earned on cash deposits in banks.

125

Our interest expenses, net decreased by US$0.15 million, or 37.3% from US$0.39 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.24 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to the decrease of interest expense, which is a result of lower average loan amounts due to repayment of loans from related parties.

Other income, net

Other income, net consists of government subsidies, litigation gain, foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and others.

Other income, net decreased by US$0.05 million, or 77.8% from US$0.07 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$0.02 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to a decrease of US$0.05 million in government subsidies with respect to salary and working capital subsidies from Taiwan government in 2023.

Taxation

British Virgin Islands (“BVI”)

The Company is incorporated in the BVI. Under the current laws of the BVI, the Company is not subject to income or capital gains taxes. Additionally, dividend payments are not subject to withholdings tax in the BVI.

Mainland China

Generally, our subsidiaries, which are considered PRC resident enterprises under PRC tax law, are subject to enterprise income tax on their worldwide taxable income as determined under PRC tax laws and accounting standards at a rate of 25%.

Taiwan

We are subject to a tax rate of 20% for entities under R.O.C. Income Tax Law.

Net loss

As a result of the foregoing, our net loss increased by US$0.85 million, or 68.9% from US$1.22 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 to US$2.07 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Going concern and Capital Resources

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities during the normal course of operations. We incurred net losses of US$1.22 million and US$2.07 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities were US$0.13 million and US$1.32 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, our accumulated deficits were US$11.21 million, with a working capital deficit of US$3.33 million. Our operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if we will be able to reduce or eliminate our net losses for the foreseeable future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have historically depended on financing from banks, related parties and third-party investors to support our operations. As of December 31, 2023, we had total bank borrowings outstanding in the principal amount of US$5.75 million with weighted average interest rates of 4.6% per annum, which would be due from April 2024 to December 2027, and we had outstanding payments through sales and leaseback arrangements in the principal amount of US$0.46 million due in November 2025 with annual interest rate of 10.0%. Our future operations are dependent upon equity or debt financing and our ability to generate profits through operations at an indeterminate time in the future. We cannot assure that we will be successful in completing an equity or debt financing or in achieving or maintaining profitability in the near term. Our financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Operating activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, our net cash used in operating activities was US$0.13 million, which was primarily attributable to (i) our net loss of US$1.22 million, (ii) an adjustment of added non-cash items of a net amount of US$1.01 million, inclusive of depreciation and amortization and other non-cash items, (iii) a decrease of US$0.39 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets due to our effort in reducing prepayments in 2022, and (vi) an increase in the amount of US$0.26 million in accounts receivables associated with a customer who is in default payment and foreign exchange impact in 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, our net cash used in operating activities was US$1.32 million, which was primarily attributable to (i) our net loss of US$2.07 million, (ii) an adjustment of added non-cash items of a net amount of US$0.53 million, inclusive of depreciation and amortization and other non-cash items, (iii) changes in working capital that negatively affected the cash flow from operating activities, primarily including (a) a net amount of US$0.19 million increase in inventories and accounts payables due to the expansion of our sales scale and we increase our stock level, as well as the fact that the credit period of accounts payable is lower than the realization period of inventory, (b) an increase of US$0.14 million in prepaid expenses due to the increase of prepayment to the suppliers and the deposit for customs duties, and partially offset by (iv) changes in working capital that positively affected the cash flow from operating activities, primarily including (a) a decrease of US$0.44 million in accounts receivables primarily due to the measures of strengthening accounts receivables collection management and enhanced debt collection efforts, (b) an increase of US$0.17 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities mainly due to a longer period of product acceptance of a customer, resulting in an increase in advance from customers.

Investing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, our net cash used in investing activities was US$0.44 million, which was primarily attributable to the purchase of equipment and vehicles and partially offset by the proceeds from disposal of equipment.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, our net cash used in investing activities was US$1.30 million, which was primarily attributable to the payment of US$0.75 million for purchase of equipment and vehicles and the amount of US$0.58 lent to Cetus Sponsor LLC for the payment of extension application fee for business combination between the Company and Cetus Capital, and partially offset by the proceeds of US$0.03 million from disposal of financing lease right-of-use asset.

Financing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, our net cash provided by financing activities was US$0.80 million, consisting primarily of net proceeds of US$0.66 million from bank borrowings and shareholder contribution of US$0.61 million, partially offset by net amount of repayment of US$0.37 million to related parties and repayments of financing sale and leaseback of US$0.16 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, our net cash provided by financing activities was US$3.14 million, consisting primarily of net proceeds of US$1.95 million from bank borrowings, proceeds of US$0.88 million from shareholder contribution, and net proceeds of US$0.28 million from related parties.

We intend to fund our future capital expenditures with our existing cash balance and proceeds from this offering. We will continue to incur capital expenditures as needed to meet the expected growth of our business.

Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2023. The amounts are gross and undiscounted and include contractual interest payments.

|  | Payment Due by Period |
|  |  |  |  | Less than |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|  | Total |  |  | 1 year |  |  | 1-3 years |  |  | 3-5 years |

Other than those shown above, we did not have any significant capital and other commitments, long-term obligations and guarantees as of December 31, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financial guarantees or other off-balance sheet commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interests in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or product development services with us.

Inflation

Inflation affects us by generally increasing the PRC operating entities’ cost of labor and costs of inventories, the way it does to all labor and costs of inventories. However, we do not anticipate that inflation will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future.

Seasonality

We believe our operation and sales do not experience seasonality.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period, and the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Out of our significant accounting policies, which are described in “Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our consolidated financial statements for the reporting period, included elsewhere in this registration statement, certain accounting policies are deemed “critical,” as they require management’s highest degree of judgment, estimates and assumptions, including (i) Accounts receivable, net; (ii) Inventories, net, (iii) Impairment of long-lived assets and (iv) Income taxes. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experiences and other factors that we believe to be relevant under the circumstances. Since our financial reporting process inherently relies on the use of estimates and assumptions, our actual results could differ from our expectations. This is especially true with some accounting policies that require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our audited consolidated financial statements because they involve the greatest reliance on our management’s judgment. We believe that the following critical accounting estimates involve the most significant judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements.

128

Allowance for credit loss

On January 1, 2023, we adopted ASC 326 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”) using the modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit. Upon adoption, we changed its impairment model to utilize a current expected credit losses model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. We had not recorded an adjustment to the opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2023 due to immaterial cumulative impact of adopting ASC 326.

Account receivables are stated net of provision of credit losses. We have developed a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model based on historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of its customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from customers. We consider historical collection rates, current financial status, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating for current expected credit losses.

The allowance for credit loss for accounts receivable were US$0.18 million and nil for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The company reversed nil and US$0.17 million of allowance for credit loss for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, a 10% increase in our estimate of the allowance for credit loss related to accounts receivable would increase our pre-tax loss by approximate 0.8%.

Net realizable value of inventory

Inventories, primarily consisting of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with net realized value represented by estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of disposal and transportation. Cost of inventory is determined using the monthly weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventory to the estimated net realizable value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged products, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand.

The write-down made for inventories were US$0.31 million and US$0.15 million for the years end December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. For the years end December 31, 2023, a 10% increase in our estimate of the write-down for inventories would increase our pre-tax loss by approximately 0.7%.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, we measure impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, we would recognize an impairment loss, which is the excess of carrying amount over the fair value of the assets, using the expected future discounted cash flows. No impairments of long-lived assets were recognized as of December 31, 2022 and 2023.

129

Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets

We account for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement 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 including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, deferred tax assets were US$2.96 million and US$3.46 million, respectively, and we have provided a valuation allowance as we have concluded that it is more likely than not that these net operating losses would not be utilized in the future. As of December 31, 2023, we had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately US$0.99 million, which arose from our subsidiaries, established in the Mainland China.

The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. Our operating subsidiaries in PRC are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than US$14,089 (RMB 100,000). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

We did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in our provision for income taxes line of our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. We did not expect that our assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

CETUS CAPITAL’S BUSINESS

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on June 7, 2022. Cetus Capital was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On February 3, 2023, Cetus Capital sold 5,750,000 Public Units at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Public Units granted to the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000 related to its IPO. Each Public Unit consists of one Public Share, one Public Warrant and one Public Right. Each Public Warrant is exercisable for one shares of Cetus Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. Each Public Right will convert into one-sixth (1/6) of one PubCo Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

Concurrently with the closing of Cetus Capital’s IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,868,750 in a private placement, and Cetus Capital issued 57,500 shares of Cetus Common Stock to EF Hutton for nominal consideration.

The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If Cetus Capital does not complete a Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business 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), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

As of March 31, 2024, cash in the amount of $19,545 was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.

Upon closing of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $58,506,250 ($10.175 per Public Unit) was placed in a the Trust Account with CST acting as trustee and can be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial business combination and the liquidation due to Cetus Capital’s failure to complete a business combination within the applicable period of time.

In February 2024, Cetus Capital redeemed an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, as a result of which redemption $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

Because we are seeking stockholder approval of our initial business combination and are not conducting redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our Sponsor, initial stockholders, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates may purchase public shares, public warrants or public rights in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our initial business combination. There is no limit on the number of shares our initial stockholders, directors, officers or their affiliates may purchase in such transactions, subject to compliance with applicable law and Nasdaq rules. However, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions. If they engage in such transactions, they will not make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material nonpublic information not disclosed to the seller or if such purchases are prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act. We do not currently anticipate that such purchases, if any, would constitute a tender offer subject to the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act or a going-private transaction subject to the going-private rules under the Exchange Act; however, if the purchasers determine at the time of any such purchases that the purchases are subject to such rules, the purchasers will comply with such rules. Any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchasers are subject to such reporting requirements. None of the funds held in the Trust Account will be used to purchase shares or public warrants in such transactions prior to completion of our initial business combination.

131

The purpose of any such purchases of shares could be to vote such shares in favor of the initial business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of the initial business combination or to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of any such purchases of public warrants or public rights could be to reduce the number of public warrants or public rights outstanding or to vote such warrants or rights on any matters submitted to the warrant holders or rights holders for approval in connection with our initial business combination. Any such purchases of our securities may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible. In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of the Public Shares, warrants or rights may be reduced and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, which may make it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

Our Sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates anticipate that they may identify the stockholders with whom our Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates may pursue privately negotiated purchases by either the stockholders contacting us directly or by our receipt of redemption requests submitted by stockholders following our mailing of proxy materials in connection with our initial business combination. To the extent that our Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates enter into a private purchase, they would identify and contact only potential selling stockholders who have expressed their election to redeem their shares for a pro rata share of the Trust Account or vote against our initial business combination, whether or not such stockholder has already submitted a proxy with respect to our initial business combination. Our Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates will only purchase Public Shares if such purchases comply with Regulation M under the Exchange Act and the other federal securities laws.

Any purchases by our Sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates who are affiliated purchasers under Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act will only be made to the extent such purchases are able to be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18, which is a safe harbor from liability for manipulation under Section 9(a)(2) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. Rule 10b-18 has certain technical requirements that must be complied with in order for the safe harbor to be available to the purchaser. Our Sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates will not make purchases of common stock if the purchases would violate Section 9(a)(2) or Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. We expect that any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchases are subject to such reporting requirements.

Redemption Rights for Public Stockholders upon Completion of our Initial Business Combination

We are providing our Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial business combination including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations described herein. As of June 4, 2024, the amount in the Trust Account was $10.79 per Public Share, without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. The per-share amount we will distribute to Public Stockholders who properly redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriters. Our initial stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, placement shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the completion of our initial business combination.

Manner of Conducting Redemptions

We will complete our initial business combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present and entitled to vote at the meeting to approve the initial business combination when a quorum is present are voted in favor of the initial business combination. A quorum for such meeting will consist of the holders present in person or by proxy of shares of outstanding capital stock of Cetus Capital representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of Cetus Capital entitled to vote at such meeting. Our initial stockholders will count toward this quorum and pursuant to the letter agreement, our sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote any founder shares and placement shares held by them and any Public Shares acquired during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of our initial business combination. Each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem its Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against, or abstain from voting on, the proposed transaction.

132

The Existing Charter provides that we may not redeem our Public Shares unless our net tangible assets are at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of our initial business combination and after payment of underwriters’ fees and commissions or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to our initial business combination. In the event the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all Public Shares that are validly submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cash conditions pursuant to the terms of the proposed initial business combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the initial business combination or redeem any shares, and all Public Shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof. However, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, the foregoing limitation regarding redemptions would not apply, in which case Cetus Capital would be able to complete the Business Combination and redeem its Public Shares even if the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital were less than $5,000,001 upon consummation of the Business Combination.

Limitation on Redemption upon Completion of our Initial Business Combination if we Seek Stockholder Approval

Because we are seeking stockholder approval of our initial business combination instead of conducting a tender offer, the Existing Charter provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of our Public Shares, which we refer to as the “Excess Shares.” Such restriction shall also be applicable to our affiliates. We believe this restriction will discourage stockholders from accumulating large blocks of shares, and subsequent attempts by such holders to use their ability to exercise their redemption rights against a proposed initial business combination as a means to force us or our management to purchase their shares at a significant premium to the then-current market price or on other undesirable terms. By limiting our stockholders’ ability to redeem no more than 15% of the Public Shares without our prior consent, we believe we will limit the ability of a small group of stockholders to unreasonably attempt to block our ability to complete our initial business combination, particularly in connection with an initial business combination with a target that requires as a closing condition that we have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash. However, we would not be restricting our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against, or to abstain from voting on, our initial business combination.

Tendering Stock Certificates in Connection with Redemption Rights

We may require our Public Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name,” to either tender their certificates to our transfer agent up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve the initial business combination, or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using the Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, at the holder’s option. Accordingly, a Public Stockholder would have up to two days prior to the vote on the initial business combination to tender its shares if it wishes to seek to exercise its redemption rights. Given the relatively short exercise period, it is advisable for stockholders to use electronic delivery of their Public Shares.

There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC System. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80.00 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. However, this fee would be incurred regardless of whether or not we require holders seeking to exercise redemption rights to tender their shares. The need to deliver shares is a requirement of exercising redemption rights regardless of the timing of when such delivery must be effectuated.

Any request to redeem such shares, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to the date of the stockholder meeting. Furthermore, if a holder of a Public Share delivered its certificate in connection with an election of redemption rights and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, such holder may simply request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically). It is anticipated that the funds to be distributed to holders of our Public Shares electing to redeem their shares will be distributed promptly after the completion of our initial business combination.

If our initial business combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then our Public Stockholders who elected to exercise their redemption rights would not be entitled to redeem their shares for the applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. In such case, we will promptly return any certificates delivered by Public Stockholders who elected to redeem their shares.

133

If our initial proposed initial business combination is not completed, we may continue to try to complete an initial business combination with a different target until the expiration of the Business Combination Period.

Redemption of Public Shares and Liquidation if no Initial Business Combination

The Existing Charter provides that we will have until the expiration of the Business Combination Period to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within such period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less 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 Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants or rights, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period.

Our Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares, placement shares and representative shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Business Combination Period. However, if our sponsor, officers or directors acquire Public Shares in or after the IPO, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Business Combination Period.

We expect that all costs and expenses associated with implementing our plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts remaining out of the approximately $19,545 of proceeds held outside the Trust Account as of March 31, 2024, although we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose. We will depend on sufficient interest being earned on the proceeds held in the Trust Account to pay any tax obligations we may owe. However, if those funds are not sufficient to cover the costs and expenses associated with implementing our plan of dissolution, to the extent that there is any interest accrued in the Trust Account not required to pay taxes, we may request the trustee to release to us an additional amount of up to $100,000 of such accrued interest to pay those costs and expenses.

Based on the balance available in the Trust Account as of June 4, 2024, the per-share redemption amount received by Public Stockholders upon our dissolution would be approximately $10.79, without giving effect to any tax or dissolution expense withdrawals. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to the claims of our creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of our Public Stockholders. We cannot assure you that the actual per-share redemption amount received by Public Stockholders will not be substantially less than $10.79. Under Section 281(b) of the DGCL, our plan of dissolution must provide for all claims against us to be paid in full or make provision for payments to be made in full, as applicable, if there are sufficient assets. These claims must be paid or provided for before we make any distribution of our remaining assets to our Public Stockholders. While we intend to pay such amounts, if any, we cannot assure you that we will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.

Although we have sought, and will continue to seek, to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of our Public Stockholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account including but not limited to fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative. Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. MaloneBailey, our independent registered public accounting firm, and the underwriters of the IPO, will not execute agreements with us waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account.

134

In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.175 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 $10.175 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 our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, we have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below (i) $10.175 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, due to reductions in value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so if, for example, the cost of such legal action is deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or if the independent directors determine that a favorable outcome is not likely. We have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations and we cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be less than $10.175 per Public Share.

We seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Sponsor is also not liable as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. We have access to the amounts held outside the Trust Account with which to pay any such potential claims (including costs and expenses incurred in connection with our liquidation, currently estimated to be no more than approximately $100,000). In the event that we liquidate and it is subsequently determined that the reserve for claims and liabilities is insufficient, stockholders who received funds from our Trust Account could be liable for claims made by creditors.

Under the DGCL, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. The pro rata portion of our Trust Account distributed to our Public Stockholders upon the redemption of our Public Shares in the event we do not complete our initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period may be considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law. If the corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution.

135

Furthermore, if the pro rata portion of our Trust Account distributed to our Public Stockholders upon the redemption of our Public Shares in the event we do not complete our initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, is not considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law and such redemption distribution is deemed to be unlawful (potentially due to the imposition of legal proceedings that a party may bring or due to other circumstances that are currently unknown), then pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, the statute of limitations for claims of creditors could then be six years after the unlawful redemption distribution, instead of three years, as in the case of a liquidating distribution. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less 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 Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Accordingly, it is our intention to redeem our Public Shares as soon as reasonably possible following the expiration of the Business Combination Period and, therefore, we do not intend to comply with those procedures. As such, our stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of our stockholders may extend well beyond the third anniversary of such date.

Because we will not be complying with Section 280, Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires us to adopt a plan, based on facts known to us at such time that will provide for our payment of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against us within the subsequent 10 years. However, because we are a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our operations are limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from our vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, etc.) or prospective target businesses. As described above, pursuant to the obligation contained in our underwriting agreement, we have sought, and will continue to seek, to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account. As a result of this obligation, the claims that could be made against us are significantly limited and the likelihood that any claim that would result in any liability extending to the Trust Account is remote. Further, the Sponsor may be liable only to the extent necessary to ensure that the amounts in the Trust Account are not reduced below (i) $10.175 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, due to reductions in value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest withdrawn to pay taxes and will not be liable as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

If we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, we cannot assure you we will be able to return $10.175 per share to our Public Stockholders. Additionally, if we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by stockholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our stockholders. Furthermore, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and our company to claims of punitive damages, by paying Public Stockholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. We cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons.

136

Our Public Stockholders will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the completion of our initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend any provisions of the Existing Charter (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (iii) the redemption of all of our Public Shares if we are unable to complete our business combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a stockholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account. In the event we seek stockholder approval in connection with our initial business combination, a stockholder’s voting in connection with the initial business combination alone will not result in a stockholder’s redeeming its shares to us for an applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. Such stockholder must have also exercised its redemption rights as described above. These provisions of the Existing Charter, like all provisions of the Existing Charter, may be amended with a stockholder vote.

Periodic Reporting and Financial Information

Cetus Capital has registered its units, Class A common stock, warrants and rights under the Exchange Act and has reporting obligations, including the requirement that it file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC. In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the annual reports of Cetus Capital contain financial statements audited and reported on by Cetus Capital’s independent registered public accountants.

Cetus Capital will provide stockholders with audited financial statements of the prospective target business as part of the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials sent to stockholders to assist them in assessing the target business. In all likelihood, these financial statements will need to be prepared in accordance with, or reconciled to, GAAP, or IFRS, depending on the circumstances, and the historical financial statements may be required to be audited in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. These financial statement requirements may limit the pool of potential targets with which Cetus Capital may conduct an initial business combination because some targets may be unable to provide such statements in time for Cetus Capital to disclose such statements in accordance with federal proxy rules and complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame. Cetus Capital cannot assure you that any particular target business identified by it as a potential business combination candidate will have financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP or that the potential target business will be able to prepare its financial statements in accordance with the requirements outlined above. To the extent that these requirements cannot be met, Cetus Capital may not be able to acquire the proposed target business. While this may limit the pool of potential business combination candidates, Cetus Capital does not believe that this limitation will be material.

Cetus Capital is required to evaluate its internal control procedures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Only in the event that Cetus Capital is deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer, and no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, will Cetus Capital be required to have its internal control procedures audited. A target company may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of their internal controls. The development of the internal controls of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete any such business combination. Cetus Capital filed a Registration Statement on Form 8-A with the SEC to voluntarily register its securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. As a result, Cetus Capital is subject to the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act. Cetus Capital has no current intention of filing a Form 15 to suspend its reporting or other obligations under the Exchange Act prior or subsequent to the consummation of its initial business combination.

137

Cetus Capital is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, Cetus Capital is eligible to 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 auditor 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 non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find the securities of Cetus Capital less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the securities of Cetus Capital and the prices of its securities may be more volatile.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Cetus Capital intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

Cetus Capital will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the IPO, (b) in which Cetus Capital has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which Cetus Capital is are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the shares of Cetus Common Stock that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, and (2) the date on which Cetus Capital has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” will have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Additionally, Cetus Capital is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. Cetus Capital will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of its common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, or (2) Cetus Capital’s annual revenues equaled or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of its common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter.

Facilities

The executive offices of Cetus Capital are located at Floor 3, No. 6, Lane 99, Zhengda Second Street, Wenshan District, 11602 Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., and our telephone number is: +886 920518827. Cetus Capital considers its current office space adequate for its current operations.

Employees

Cetus Capital has two officers as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to the matters of Cetus Capital but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary, in the exercise of their respective business judgement, to the affairs of Cetus Capital until Cetus Capital has completed its initial business combination. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for Cetus Capital’s initial business combination and the stage of the initial business combination process Cetus Capital is in. Cetus Capital does not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of its initial business combination. Cetus Capital does not have an employment agreement with any member of its management team.

Legal Proceedings

There is no material litigation, arbitration or governmental proceeding currently pending against Cetus Capital or any members of its management team in their capacity as such.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF CETUS CAPITAL

The following discussion and analysis of Cetus Capital’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with Cetus Capital’s audited financial statements and the notes related thereto.

Overview

Cetus Capital is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on June 7, 2022. Cetus Capital was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On February 3, 2023, Cetus Capital consummated the IPO of 5,750,000 Public Units, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Public Units granted to the underwriters. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Cetus Capital consummated the private placement with the Sponsor of 286,875 Private Units (as described in Note 4), generating total proceeds of $2,868,750, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to Private Units at $10.00 per unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. Each Public Unit and each Private Unit consists of one share of Cetus Common Stock, one redeemable warrant entitling its holder to purchase one share of Cetus Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share of Cetus Common Stock upon the consummation of the business combination.

Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement on February 3, 2023, a total of $58,506,250 was placed in the Trust Account maintained by CST 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, and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. In February 2024, Cetus Capital redeemed an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

If Cetus Capital is unable to complete a Business Combination prior to the expiration of the Business Combination Period, Cetus Capital will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) 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 (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less certain amount of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of Cetus Capital’s remaining stockholders and the Cetus Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the obligations of Cetus Capital under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

Cetus Capital cannot assure you that its plans to complete our initial business combination will be successful.

This deposit was made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”). The First MKD Loan is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI containing substantially the same terms as the Extension Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the First MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 575,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor.

On November 19, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Third Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from November 3, 2023 to February 1, 2024.

On December 14, 2023, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, the members of the Cetus Board (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor and EF Hutton, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the Business Combination Period, including but not limited to those shares of Cetus Common Stock pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

On January 31, 2024, Cetus Capital held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of Cetus Capital approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Cetus Capital must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Cetus Board (the “2024 Extension”). Cetus Capital implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension. In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused five additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $250,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for five additional one month periods, until July 3, 2024. These deposits were made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Sponsor Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “Second MKD Loan”).

As a condition for MKD BVI to make the Second MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 300,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor (the “Pledged Shares”). In addition, the Sponsor and Cetus Capital entered into a Stock Pledge Agreement with respect to the pledge of the Pledged Shares.

On February 1, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fourth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from February 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024.

On April 30, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from April 30, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

The Business Combination is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024, following the receipt of the required approval by our stockholders and, to the extent necessary, the other parties to the Business Combination Agreement, approval by the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) of the initial listing application of PubCo filed in connection with the Business Combination, and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions.

Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement

On April 24, 2024, Cetus Capital, EF Hutton, MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo (MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and PubCo being collectively referred to as the “MKD Parties”) entered into the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, EF Hutton waived $862,500 of the $1,725,000 cash deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”) that would otherwise be immediately due and payable to it pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated January 31, 2023 by and between Cetus Capital and EF Hutton upon the closing of the Business Combination, accepting in lieu thereof (i) a one-time cash payment of $862,500 on or before the closing of the Business Combination and (ii) the issuance of 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares at $10.00 per share on or before the closing of the Business Combination (the “Ordinary Shares”).

The Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement also provides that, within sixty (60) days of the closing of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall cause the Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement to be registered under the Securities Act.

140

If the aggregate volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the 115,000 Ordinary Shares that EF Hutton holds as a result of the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, as of the effectiveness date of the registration statement for such Ordinary Shares, is lower than $1,150,000 (the “Original Aggregate Share Value”) (the difference between the VWAP value on such date and the Original Aggregate Share Value, the “Difference in Amount”), then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or issuing additional Ordinary Shares at a new value of Ordinary Shares (the “New Share Price”) in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on the effectiveness date of the registration statement. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties and/or their successors in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton the Difference in Amount in issuing additional Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the effectiveness date of the registration statement, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement.

If the date that is five (5) trading days prior to the day the Ordinary Shares issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction & Discharge Agreement are eligible for release pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the aggregate VWAP value of such Ordinary Shares is lower than the Original Aggregate Share Value, then Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties or their successor in interest shall compensate EF Hutton either in cash or issuing additional Ordinary Shares at the New Share Price in an amount equal to the Difference in Amount on such date. If Cetus Capital, the MKD Parties, or their successor in interest decide to compensate EF Hutton for the Difference in Amount in issuing additional Ordinary Shares, then the New Share Price of such additional Ordinary Shares shall equal an amount that is the lowest of the VWAP for a period of five (5) trading days immediately prior to the end of the twelve-month month period immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement.

Results of Operations

Cetus Capital’s entire activity since inception up to March 31, 2024 was in connection with its IPO and its search for a target for its initial business combination. Cetus Capital will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Cetus Capital had net income of $268,671, which consisted of interest income on the Trust Account in the amount of $585,807, partially offset by formation and operating costs of $181,466, franchise tax expense of $16,013 and income tax expense of $119,657. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had net loss of $52,531, which consisted of interest income on the Trust Account in the amount of $414,342, partially offset by formation and operating costs of $338,333, franchise tax expense of $52,567 and income tax expense of $75,973.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had net income of $52,056, which consisted of interest income on the Trust Account in the amount of $1,394,622, partially offset by formation and operating costs of $907,593, franchise tax expense of $179,876, and income tax expense of $255,097. For the period from June 7, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2022, Cetus Capital had net loss of $5,652, which consisted of formation and operating costs of $5,652.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2024, Cetus Capital had $19,545 in cash and working capital deficit of $1,836,304.

Cetus Capital 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. In connection with Cetus Capital’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about Cetus Capital’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if Cetus Capital is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Cetus Board would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of Cetus Capital. There is no assurance that Cetus Capital’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the business combination period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about Cetus Capital’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This management’s discussion and analysis of Cetus Capital’s financial condition and results of operations is based on Cetus Capital’s unaudited financial statements included in this proxy statement / prospectus, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements required Cetus Capital to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in its financial statements. On an ongoing basis, Cetus Capital evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. Cetus Capital bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

141

Common Stock Subject to Redemption

Cetus Capital accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within Cetus Capital’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Cetus Capital’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of its control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of Cetus Capital’s balance sheet.

Cetus Capital has made a policy election in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A and recognizes changes in redemption value in additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit in the absence of additional paid-in capital) over an expected 9-month period leading up to a Business Combination.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

Cetus Capital has no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2024. Cetus Capital does 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. Cetus Capital has 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.

Description of the Business Combination

On June 20, 2023, Cetus Capital, MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and the Shareholders’ Representative entered into the Business Combination Agreement, which contains customary representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, termination provisions and other terms relating to the mergers and the other transactions contemplated thereby.

For more information about the Business Combination and Business Combination Agreement, please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — General Description of the Business Combination and Business Combination Agreement.”

143

Accounting for the Business Combination

In May 2023, MKD Taiwan held a shareholders’ meeting to seek approval from the shareholders of MKD Taiwan for various corporate matters relating to the Business Combination with Cetus Capital. In connection with the shareholders’ meeting, MKD commenced a reorganization by way of share acquisition, in which MKD BVI, a shell company newly incorporated on March 30, 2023 and then solely owned by the director and chief executive officer of MKD Taiwan, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, commenced acquiring shares of MKD Taiwan directly from MKD Taiwan shareholders, in exchange for proportionate shares of MKD BVI which are issued to MKD Taiwan shareholders. MKD BVI is a redomestication platform for MKD Taiwan shareholders to exchange their MKD Taiwan shares for MKD BVI shares (the “Taiwan Reorganization”). Each MKD Taiwan shareholder who accepted the offer received one MKD BVI share for each MKD Taiwan share they held. As of August 8, 2023 and the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD BVI owns approximately 62.36% of the issued and outstanding shares of MKD Taiwan.

The Taiwan Reorganization will be accounted for as a recapitalization transaction. This determination was primarily based on the transaction which essentially results in the formation of a holding company, and no goodwill or other intangible assets will be recorded.

As for the Business Combination, MKD BVI was determined to be the accounting acquirer and Cetus Capital was the accounting acquiree. This determination was primarily based on the current shareholders of MKD BVI having a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company. The transaction will be similar to that of a capital infusion as the only significant pre-combination asset of Cetus Capital is the cash in the Trust Account. No intangibles or goodwill will arise through the accounting for the transaction. The accounting is the equivalent of MKD BVI issuing shares, warrants and rights for the net monetary assets of Cetus Capital.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Transactions, which is prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being indicative of the historical financial position and results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future financial position and results that the post-combination company will experience. MKD BVI and Cetus Capital did not have any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared assuming three alternative levels of redemption into cash of the shares of Cetus Common Stock:

| ● | Scenario 1 — Assuming No Redemptions of Public Shares into Cash, except for the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting: No Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, all Public Shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to $20.93 million would be transferred to permanent equity; and
| ● | Scenario 2 — Assuming the Redemption of 1,409,540 Public Shares into Cash, in addition to the 3,691,066 Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting (assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved): 1,409,540 Public Shares represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, $14.63 million would be paid out in cash, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).
| ● | Scenario 3 — Assuming the Redemption of 100% of the Public Shares into Cash, in addition to the 3,691,066 Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting (and approval and implementation of the NTA Amendment Proposal): The maximum number amounting to 2,058,934 Public Shares are redeemed for cash by Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, under which scenario the Combined Company would have insufficient cash resources after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders, $21.37 million would be paid out in cash, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting).

The scenarios above do not include a total of 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares that may be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the terms of the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. Such 200,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares constitute approximately 1.2% of the 17,246,248 outstanding PubCo shares immediately after Closing of the Business Combination under the maximum redemption outcome in Scenario 3 above.

In accordance with the Existing Charter, in the event that the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting and payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, are less than $5,000,001 upon consummation of the Business Combination, Cetus Capital will not complete the Business Combination or redeem any Public Shares, and all Public Shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof. However, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, the foregoing limitation regarding redemptions would not apply, in which case Cetus Capital would be able to complete the Business Combination and redeem its Public Shares even if the net tangible assets of Cetus Capital were less than $5,000,001.

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements are 14,343,228 ordinary shares to be issued to MKD BVI shareholders in connection with the Business Combination Agreement under Scenarios 1 and 2, which assumes that MKD BVI holds approximately 62.36% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MKD Taiwan immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination.

As a result of the Business Combination and immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, assuming no Public Shareholders elect to redeem their Public Shares for cash, the former shareholders of MKD BVI will own approximately 74.3% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares and the former shareholders of Cetus Capital will own approximately 25.7% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares (in each case, as of December 31, 2023 and without giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon the exercise of warrants).

If 1,409,540 Public Shares are redeemed for cash, which represents the maximum redemption amount to leave a minimum of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets, including the cash to be released from the Trust Account, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders  in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, the former shareholders of MKD BVI will own approximately 80.1% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares and the former shareholders of Cetus Capital (including EF Hutton with respect to the 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to it pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement) will own approximately 19.9% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares (in each case, as of December 31, 2023 and without giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon the exercise of warrants).

If 2,058,934 ordinary shares are redeemed for cash, which assumes 100% redemption of Public Shares, the former shareholders of MKD BVI will own approximately 83.2% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares and the former shareholders of Cetus Capital (including EF Hutton with respect to the 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to it pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement) will own approximately 16.8% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares (in each case, as of December 31, 2023 and without giving effect to any shares issuable to them upon the exercise of warrants).

Additional funding required under different redemption scenarios

Assuming 100% redemption of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares

Under the maximum redemption scenario which assumes 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares are redeemed, funds from the trust account of Cetus Capital will be used to pay the redemption amounts to all redeeming shareholders, leaving no remaining funds.

Additionally, the Combined Company will upon Closing of the Business Combination be liable for a sum of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. Such agreement modified the underwriting agreement dated January 31, 2023 between EF Hutton and Cetus Capital, such that the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000 due to EF Hutton was partly equitized, with $862,500 (one-half) being payable in cash upon Closing and the remaining $862,500 (one-half) being payable in the form of 115,000 new PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton.

As at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had total liabilities of $3,272,230, which includes but is not limited to the deferred underwriting commission of $1,725,000 due to EF Hutton. Taking into account the equitization of $862,500 (one-half) of such underwriting commission, as at December 31, 2023, Cetus Capital had adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730. The Business Combination will not be closed unless all properly tendered redemptions have been satisfied from the trust account, and (i) the deferred underwriting commission of $862,500 in cash due to EF Hutton, (ii) franchise tax of $179,876 and (iii) income tax of $255,097 has been paid (collectively the “Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses,” amounting to $1,297,473 in aggregate.) It is not anticipated that the Closing of the Business Combination will be contingent upon immediate satisfaction of the other remaining liabilities of Cetus Capital or the satisfaction of any liabilities of MKD.

In view of the cash and cash equivalents of $320,971 available to Cetus Capital and $924,428 available to MKD as at December 31, 2023 and assuming no material changes of such liabilities and cash resources from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing:

| c) | To fully satisfy the Anticipated Cetus Closing Expenses, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $52,074 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

| d) | To fully satisfy the adjusted total liabilities of $2,409,730 of Cetus Capital as of December 31, 2023, the Combined Company will need to raise an additional $1,164,331 from external sources under the maximum redemption scenario with 100% of currently outstanding Cetus Capital Public Shares being redeemed, failing which the Business Combination will not be completed.

Assuming the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights

Alternatively, if the NTA Amendment Proposal is not approved and holders of 1,409,540 Cetus Capital Public Shares exercise their redemption rights, while the Business Combination is approved by Cetus Capital stockholders, $5,000,001 of net tangible assets will remain, after giving effect to payments for estimated transaction expenses and payments to redeeming shareholders, and assuming a per share redemption price of $10.38 (which is based on the amount available in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023 after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), which funds will be available to fully satisfy the total liabilities of Cetus Capital as at December 31, 2023. Assuming no material changes of such liabilities from December 31, 2023 up to the date of Closing, the Business Combination can close without being subject to additional funds being raised by the Combined Company.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Cetus Capital will be treated as the “accounting acquiree” and MKD BVI as the “accounting acquirer” for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of MKD BVI issuing shares for the net assets of Cetus Capital, followed by a recapitalization. The net assets of Cetus Capital will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of MKD BVI.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, assumes that the Business Combination and related transactions occurred on December 31, 2023. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023, combines the audited statement of operations of Cetus Capital for the year ended December 31, 2023 with the audited consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 of MKD BVI, giving effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2023, the beginning of the earliest period presented. These periods are presented on the basis that MKD BVI is the acquirer for accounting purposes.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Cetus Capital has elected not to present any reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”) and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. MKD BVI and Cetus Capital did not have any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

NOTE 2 — ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECLASSIFICATIONS

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management will perform a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the post-combination company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

NOTE 3 — ADJUSTMENTS TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and related transactions and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

147

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts for the year ended December 31, 2023 presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations are based upon the number of MKD BVI shares outstanding, assuming the Business Combination and related transactions occurred on the earliest period presented: January 1, 2023, respectively.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 are as follows:

| (A) | Derived from the audited balance sheet of Cetus Capital as of December 31, 2023.

| (B) | Derived from the audited balance sheet of MKD BVI as of December 31, 2023.
| (1) | Reflects the release of cash from cash and marketable securities held in the trust account.
| (2) | Reflects the settlement of deferred underwriting commission, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, amount due to related parties. In Scenario 1, which assumes no Cetus Capital shareholders exercise their redemption rights, except for the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, all amount of deferred underwriting commission, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, amount due to related parties of Cetus could be settled. In April 2024, Cetus Capital, MKD and EF Hutton signed an agreement, pursuant to which, EF Hutton agreed to accept as full satisfaction of the deferred underwriting commission of $1.725 million, if on or before the closing date of the Business Combination, (i) Cetus Capital and/or MKD wire $862,500 to the bank account of EF Hutton, and (ii) 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares is issued and transferred to EF Hutton. In Scenario 2, which assumes only 1,409,540 additional Public Shares are redeemed by Cetus Capital shareholders (in addition to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), and same facts regarding the deferred underwriting commission settlement in cash and shares as described in scenario 1, all amount of deferred underwriting commission, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, amount due to related parties of Cetus Capital could be settled. In Scenario 3, which assumes 100% of the outstanding 2,058,934 Public Shares are redeemed by Cetus Capital shareholders (in addition to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting), and same facts regarding the deferred underwriting commission settlement in cash and shares as described in scenario 1, the remaining cash will be insufficient to settle liabilities, and therefore the outstanding liabilities could not be settled and will become the liabilities of the Combined Company. The remaining cash after giving effect to payments to redeeming shareholders amounts to $1,245,399, which would be paid to settle deferred underwriting commission of $862,500 and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $382,899.
| (3) | Reflects assumed shares redeemed. In Scenario 1, which assumes no Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination except for the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, all Public Shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to $20.93 million would be transferred to permanent equity. In Scenario 2, which assumes the same facts above and the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, but also assumes 1,409,540 of Public Shares are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, cash required at $14.63 million would be paid out in cash, while maintaining a minimum cash balance of $5,000,001 at Closing, in order to have $5,000,001 of net tangible assets at Closing. In Scenario 3, which assumes the same facts as described in Items 1 and 2 above and the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, but also assumes 100% of remaining Public Shares are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, which equals to 2,058,934 shares, are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital Public Stockholders, cash required at $21.37 million would be paid out in cash.

148

| (4) | Reflects (a) recapitalization of MKD BVI through the issuance of 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares and to eliminate Cetus Capital’s historical accumulated deficit; and (b) the contribution of all the share capital in MKD BVI and Cetus Capital to PubCo. In Scenario 1, which assumes no Cetus Capital Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination except for the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, the total ordinary shares upon completion of the Business Combination would be 19,305,182, at the par value of $0.0001 per share, totally amounting to $1,931. In Scenario 2, which assumes the same facts above and the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, but also assumes 1,409,540 additional Public Shares are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, the total ordinary shares upon completion of the Business Combination would be 17,895,642, at the par value of $0.0001 per share, totally amounting to $1,790. In Scenario 3, which assumes the same facts above and the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, but also assumes 100% of the remaining Public Shares, which equals 2,058,934 shares, are redeemed for cash by Cetus Capital Public Stockholders in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, the total ordinary shares upon completion of the Business Combination would be 17,246,248, at the par value of $0.0001 per share, totally amounting to $1,725.
| (5) | On October 31, 2023, the Sponsor of Cetus Capital deposited $575,000 into the Trust Account in connection with the extension of the Business Combination Period from November 3, 2023 to February 3, 2024. On January 31, 2024, the stockholders of Cetus Capital approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the Business Combination Period from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month periods to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account. In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has made four additional deposits, for an aggregate amount of $200,000. These deposits were made in respect of loans to Cetus Capital in the aggregate principal amount of $725,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which was evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Sponsor Loan were provided by MKD BVI, which were evidenced by a note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI (the “MKD Loan”). These loans would be settled in cash. Upon receiving proceeds of the amount up to $725,000, Cetus Capital recorded it as notes payable while MKD BVI recorded it as notes receivable. The elimination of both notes payable and notes receivable will occur upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Therefore, there will be no impact on the pro forma combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations

| (A) | Derived from Cetus Capital’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023.

| (B) | Derived from the MKD BVI’s audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023.

| (1) | The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the IPO occurred as of the earliest period presented. In addition, as the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred on this date, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares have been outstanding for the entire period presented. This calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the number of shares redeemed in the Business Combinations for the entire period.
| (2) | To reflect the elimination of the unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the trust account as if the marketable securities held in the trust account were released, if any, on January 1, 2023, the beginning of the earliest period presented.

The following presents the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding assuming three alternative levels of conversion for the year ended December 31, 2023. 5,750,000 Public PubCo warrants and 286,875 Private PubCo warrants are not included in the determination of weighted average shares outstanding because they are anti-dilutive.

Officer and Director Compensation

None of the officers of Cetus Capital has received any cash compensation for services rendered to Cetus Capital. No compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by Cetus Capital to its Sponsor (or any officer, director or affiliate of the Sponsor) or to any of its officers or directors (or any of their affiliates), prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of the initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on behalf of Cetus Capital, such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations, and members of Cetus Capital’s management team and Cetus Capital’s independent directors will have an indirect interest in the founder shares to the extent of their membership interest in the Sponsor following the closing of the IPO. The audit committee of Cetus Capital will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, any of the officers or directors of Cetus Capital, or any affiliates of the foregoing persons. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination will be made using funds held outside the Trust Account. Other than quarterly audit committee review of such payments, Cetus Capital does not have any additional controls in place governing its reimbursement payments to its directors and executive officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination.

After the completion of the initial business combination, directors or members of the management team of Cetus Capital who remain with the Combined Company may be paid consulting or management fees from the Combined Company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to stockholders in connection with a proposed initial business combination. Cetus Capital has not established any limit on the amount of such fees that may be paid by the Combined Company to its directors or members of management. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of the proposed initial 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 the officers of Cetus Capital 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.

Cetus Capital has not taken, and does not intend to take, any action to ensure that members of the Cetus Capital management team maintain their positions with the Combined Company after the consummation of the initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of its officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with the Combined Company after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with the Combined Company may influence management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business, but Cetus Capital does not believe that the ability of management to remain with the Combined Company after the consummation of the initial business combination will be a determining factor in its decision to proceed with any potential business combination. Cetus Capital is not party to any agreements with its officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, it is contemplated that Chung-Yi Sun, the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Cetus Capital, and Jung-Te Chang, a member of the Cetus Board, will serve as a member of the PubCo Board following the Closing of the Business Combination, and will receive such compensation as may be provided to non-employee members of the PubCo Board as shall be determined at such time.

Family Relationships

Besides Mr. Ming-Chao Huang and Mr. Ming-Chia Huang who are siblings, none of our directors or executive officers has a family relationship as defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-K.

Duties of Directors

Under BVI law, directors owe fiduciary duties both at common law and under statute, including a statutory duty to act honestly, in good faith and with a view to our best interests. When exercising powers or performing duties as a director, directors also have a duty to exercise the care, diligence and skills that a reasonable director would exercise in comparable circumstances, taking into account without limitation the nature of the company, the nature of the decision and the position of the director and the nature of the responsibilities undertaken by him. In exercising the powers of a director, the directors must exercise their powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the company acting in a manner that contravenes our memorandum and articles of association or the BVI Business Companies Act. In fulfilling their duty of care to PubCo, PubCo’s directors must ensure compliance with its memorandum and articles of association. PubCo will have the right to seek damages if a duty owed by its directors is breached.

The board of directors of PubCo will be collectively responsible for managing the business and affairs of PubCo, and day-to-day managerial powers will be delegated to the executive directors and officers of PubCo, including Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Ms. Min-Jie Cui and Mr. Ming-Chao Huang, who collectively constitute the core senior management team. Nevertheless, the board of PubCo will remain ultimately responsible for all corporate affairs, including overseeing the strategic direction of the Group, reviewing its financial performance, assessing its ESG performance, and overseeing enterprise risks. These include financial risks, operational risks, legal and compliance, and other manners of regulatory risks, such as AML/CFT risks and sanction compliance, personal or confidential information policies, and cybersecurity risks, to name a few. See also “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Business of MKD—Failure to protect personal or confidential information against cybersecurity breaches could subject MKD to significant reputational, financial and legal consequences and substantially harm its business and results of operations.”

Appointment and Removal of Directors

Under BVI law and the PubCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, a director may be elected by a majority of shareholders’ votes at a shareholders’ meeting, and the directors may at any time appoint any person to be a director either to fill a vacancy or as an addition to the existing directors. A director may be removed from office with or without cause by, (a) a majority of shareholders’ votes at a shareholders’ meeting called for the purposes of removing the director or for purposes including the removal of the director or by a written resolution passed by a least seventy five per cent of the shareholders entitled to vote; or (b) the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then in office.

Term of Directors

Each director will hold office for such term as may be fixed by shareholders or resolution of the directors appointing him, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. If no term is fixed on the appointment of a director, the director serves indefinitely until his earlier death, resignation or removal. A director shall resign forthwith as a director if he is, or becomes, disqualified from acting as a director.

Committees of the Board of Directors

There will be three standing committees of the PubCo Board upon the completion of the Business Combination: the audit committee, the compensation committee, and the nominating and corporate governance committee. The proposed composition of each committee is described below:

| ● | Audit Committee: Chih-Hsiang Tang (Chair), Jung-Te Chang and Chung-Yi Sun;

| ● | Compensation Committee: Chung-Yi Sun (Chair), Chih-Hsiang Tang and Jung-Te Chang; and

| ● | Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: Ming-Chia Huang (Chair), Ming-Chao Huang and Chung-Yi Sun.

The members of each committee are all “independent” under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Chih-Hsiang Tang will also be a “financial expert” under the listing requirements of Nasdaq.

The audit committee, which is established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, will engage PubCo’s independent accountants and review their independence and performance; review PubCo’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the integrity of its financial statements; review the audits of PubCo’s financial statements and the appointment, compensation, qualifications, independence and performance of its independent auditors; review PubCo’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and review the performance of PubCo’s internal audit function and internal control over financial reporting.

The compensation committee will review annually PubCo’s corporate goals and objectives relevant to the officers’ compensation, will evaluate the performance of officers in light of such goals and objectives, will determine and approve the compensation level of officers based on this evaluation; will make recommendations to the PubCo Board regarding approval, disapproval, modification or termination of existing or proposed employee benefit plans, will make recommendations to the PubCo Board with respect to non-CEO and non-CFO compensation and will administer PubCo’s incentive-compensation plans and equity-based plans. The compensation committee will have the authority to delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees as it may deem appropriate in its sole discretion. PubCo’s chief executive officer of may not be present during voting or deliberations of the compensation committee with respect to his compensation. PubCo’s executive officers will not play a role in suggesting their own salaries. Neither PubCo nor the compensation committee has engaged any compensation consultant who has a role in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive or director compensation.

153

The nominating and corporate governance committee will be responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on the PubCo Board. Specifically, the nominating and corporate governance committee will make recommendations to the PubCo Board regarding the size and composition of the PubCo Board, will establish procedures for the director nomination process and will screen and recommend candidates for election to the PubCo Board. On an annual basis, the nominating and corporate governance committee will recommend for approval by the PubCo Board certain desired qualifications and characteristics for board membership. Additionally, the nominating and corporate governance committee will establish and administer a periodic assessment procedure relating to the performance of the PubCo Board as a whole and its individual members. The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the PubCo Board. The nominating and corporate governance committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating and corporate governance committee will not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

Compensation

After the completion of the initial business combination, directors or members of the management team of MKD Taiwan who remain with PubCo may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the Combined Company. Any compensation to be paid to its executive officers will be determined by a compensation committee constituted by the board of PubCo.

PubCo is not party to any agreements with its executive officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, MKD paid an aggregate of approximately $268,360 and $300,626 respectively in cash compensation and benefits in kind to MKD’s directors and executive officers, Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Ms. Min-Jie Cui, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang and Mr. Chih-Hsiang Tang, as a group. In Taiwan, MKD is not required by the applicable laws and regulations to make contributions to the individual pension accounts for directors and the executive officers who do not apply the Labor Standards Act of Taiwan. MKD Taiwan may make voluntary contributions up to 6% of the total wage of such executive officers but cannot do so for directors. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, MKD’s executive officers and directors aforementioned did not receive any stock options or any benefits under profit-sharing plans and no deferred or contingent compensation accrued to them.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

PubCo will adopt a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics upon the completion of the Business Combination applicable to its directors, officers and employees. PubCo seeks to conduct business ethically, honestly, and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. PubCo’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets out the principles designed to guide PubCo’s business practices — compliance, integrity, respect and dedication. The code applies to all directors, officers and employees.

The following table sets forth information regarding (i) the beneficial ownership of shares of Cetus Common Stock as of June 7, 2024 (prior to the Closing of the Business Combination) and (ii) the expected beneficial ownership of PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination, assuming that no Public Shares are redeemed and, alternatively, that 2,058,934 Public Shares are redeemed, by:

| ● | each person known by Cetus Capital to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock;

| ● | each person known by Cetus Capital who may become the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination;

| ● | all of the current executive officers and directors of Cetus Capital as a group; and

| ● | all of the Combined Company’s executive officers and directors as a group after the Closing of the Business Combination.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if such person possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person or entity and the percentage ownership of that person or entity in the table below, all shares subject to options and warrants held by such person or entity were deemed outstanding if such securities are currently exercisable, or exercisable or would vest based on service-based vesting conditions within 60 days of June 7, 2024, assuming that the liquidity-event vesting conditions had been satisfied as of such date. These shares were not deemed outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or entity.

The beneficial ownership of Cetus Common Stock prior to the Closing of the Business Combination is based on 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock (of which 2,058,934 are Public Shares and 1,781,875 are shares held by the Sponsor and EF Hutton) issued and outstanding as of June 7, 2024.

The expected beneficial ownership of PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination, assuming none of the Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, has been determined based upon the following assumptions: (i) no Public Shares are redeemed, other than the 3,691,066 Public Shares that have been redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting, and Cetus Capital has not issued any additional shares of Cetus Common Stock; (ii) 2,058,934 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to Cetus Capital Public Stockholders, 958,333 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued for Cetus Capital Public Shares converted from the Public Rights, 1,772,187 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to Cetus Sponsor LLC and 172,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to EF Hutton (including 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement); and (iii) MKD BVI owns an approximate 62.36% equity interest of MKD Taiwan, and pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, there are no further adjustments to the merger consideration due to shareholders of MKD BVI arising from closing cash and debt amounts of MKD Taiwan, such that 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to MKD BVI shareholders. Based on the foregoing assumptions, in the event that none of the Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, there will be 19,305,182 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination.

155

The expected beneficial ownership of PubCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination, assuming that the NTA Amendment Proposal has been approved and implemented and all Public Shares have been redeemed, has been determined based on the following assumptions: (i) the holders of 2,058,934 Public Shares have exercised their redemption rights in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, in addition to the 3,691,066 Public Shares that were redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting, leaving no Cetus Capital Public Shares outstanding; (ii) no PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to Cetus Capital Public Stockholders, 958,333 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued for Cetus Capital Public Shares converted from the Public Rights, 1,772,187 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to Cetus Sponsor LLC and 172,500 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to EF Hutton (including 115,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement); and (iii) MKD BVI owns an approximate 62.36% equity interest of MKD Taiwan, and pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, there are no further adjustments to the merger consideration due to shareholders of MKD BVI arising from closing cash and debt amounts of MKD Taiwan, such that 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to MKD BVI shareholders. Based on the foregoing assumptions, in the event that the maximum number of Public Shares are redeemed, there will be 17,246,248 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the Closing of the Business Combination.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among the directors and officers of Cetus Capital, PubCo, MKD Taiwan and MKD BVI, other than Mr. Ming-Chao Huang and Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, who are siblings.

Certain Transactions of Cetus Capital

On June 10, 2022, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase 1,725,000 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.014 per share. On August 31, 2022, the Sponsor converted all of its founder shares, which were originally issued as shares of Class B common stock, into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. On December 30, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered to us for cancellation 287,500 shares of Class A common stock for no consideration, resulting in the Sponsor owning 1,437,500 shares of Class A common stock. The number of founder shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such founder shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares upon completion of the IPO (excluding the Private Units and underlying securities and issuance of shares to EF Hutton). Up to 187,500 founder shares held by the Sponsor were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. The founder shares may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.

The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,868,750 in connection with the closing of the IPO. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to the founder shares or Private Units, which will expire worthless if we do not consummate a business combination within the Business Combination Period.

No compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor or to any of its officers or directors, or to any affiliate of any of the foregoing, prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of an initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on behalf of Cetus Capital such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations, and members of the Cetus Capital management team and its independent directors have an indirect interest in the founder shares to the extent of their membership interest in the Sponsor. The audit committee of Cetus Capital will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor and to the officers and directors of Cetus Capital, and to any affiliate of the foregoing persons, and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on behalf of Cetus Capital.

Prior to the closing of the IPO, our sponsor agreed to loan us, pursuant to a promissory note, up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. These loans were non-interest bearing, unsecured and are due at the earlier of May 31, 2023 or the closing of the IPO. The promissory note was repaid by converting it to Private Units in connection with the IPO at $10 per unit.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the officers and directors of Cetus Capital may, but are not obligated to, loan to Cetus Capital us funds on a non-interest bearing basis as may be required. If Cetus Capital completes an initial business combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, Cetus Capital may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Additionally, if Cetus Capital extends the time available to complete its initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designees will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension, subject to the obligation of MKD Taiwan to provide all or a portion of the funds for such deposit in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of our initial business combination. The units would be identical to the Private Units. Other than as described above, the terms of such loans by the officers and directors of Cetus Capital, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

157

Cetus Capital does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor as it does 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 the Trust Account.

After the initial business combination, members of the management team of Cetus Capital who remain with the Combined Company may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the Combined Company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to the stockholders of Cetus Capital. 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 stockholder meeting held to consider the initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.

The holders of the founder shares, Private Units, and units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and extension loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) have registration rights to require Cetus Capital to register a sale of any of its securities held by such holders pursuant to a registration rights agreement that was signed in connection with the IPO. These holders will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that Cetus Capital register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders will have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by Cetus Capital.

Cetus Capital has entered into agreements with its officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Existing Charter. The bylaws of Cetus Capital also permit it to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Delaware law would permit such indemnification. Cetus Capital has purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures its officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures Cetus Capital against its obligations to indemnify its officers and directors.

Related Party Policy of Cetus Capital

Cetus Capital has adopted a code of ethics requiring it to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by the Cetus Board (or the appropriate committee of the Cetus Board) or as disclosed in its public filings with the SEC. Under Cetus Capital’s code of ethics, conflict of interest situations will include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving Cetus Capital. Cetus Capital has filed a form of the code of ethics with the SEC and a copy is available on its website. You are able to review Cetus Capital’s code of ethics by accessing its public filings at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the copy of ethics will be provided without charge upon request. Cetus Capital intends to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of its code of ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

In addition, the audit committee of Cetus Capital, pursuant to a written charter that it has adopted, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that Cetus Capital enters into such transactions. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction. We have filed a copy of our audit committee charter with the SEC and a copy is available on our website. We also require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

158

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

To further minimize conflicts of interest, Cetus Capital has agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of its Sponsor, officers or directors unless Cetus Capital, or a committee of independent directors, have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions that our initial business combination is fair to Cetus Capital from a financial point of view. Furthermore, no finder’s fees, reimbursements, consulting fee, monies in respect of any payment of a loan or other compensation will be paid by Cetus Capital to its Sponsor, officers or directors or any affiliate of its Sponsor, officers or directors prior to, for services rendered to Cetus Capital prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of an initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, the following payments will be made to the Sponsor, to the officers or directors of Cetus Capital, or to the affiliates of Cetus Capital or of any of the foregoing persons, none of which will be made from the Trust Account prior to the completion of an initial business combination:

| ● | Repayment of up to an aggregate of $300,000 in loans made to Cetus Capital by the Sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses;

| ● | Reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination; and

| ● | Repayment of non-interest bearing loans which may be made by the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the officers and directors of Cetus Capital to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the terms of which (other than as described above) have not been determined nor have any written agreements been executed with respect thereto. Additionally, if Cetus Capital extends the time available to complete its initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designees will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension, subject to the obligation of MKD Taiwan to provide all or a portion of the funds for such deposit in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of an initial business combination. The units would be identical to the Private Units.

The Cetus Capital audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, to the officers and directors of Cetus Capital, or to the affiliates of Cetus Capital or any of the foregoing persons.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Upon the Closing of the Business Combination, the Combined Company will have 100,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares authorized and up to approximately 19,305,182 PubCo Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, assuming no further Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination and no further adjustments of the number of shares to be issued to MKD BVI shareholders pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. All of the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination will be freely transferable by persons other than by the directors and officers of PubCo as of the Closing, all shareholders who hold more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding equity securities of PubCo as of the Closing and the Sponsor without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Sales of substantial amounts of PubCo Ordinary Shares in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the PubCo Ordinary Shares. PubCo has applied for listing of the PubCo Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, but PubCo cannot assure you that the listing application will be approved.

Lock-ups

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, and as a condition thereto, the directors and officers of PubCo as of the Closing, all shareholders who hold more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding equity securities of PubCo as of the Closing and the Sponsor will enter into lock-up agreements with PubCo (the “Lock-up Agreements”). Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreements, the shareholders party thereto will not, during the 180 day period following the Closing (the “Lock-Up Period”), and subject to certain exceptions, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Lock-Up Shares (as defined below), or enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares, or otherwise publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any short sales with respect to such shares. “Lock-Up Shares” means any of the PubCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Acquisition Merger or the SPAC Merger, as applicable, as well as any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the right to receive, Cetus Common Stock or PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired during the Lock-Up Period, other than PubCo Ordinary Shares acquired in open market transactions during the Lock-Up Period.

Rule 144

All of the PubCo Ordinary Shares that will be outstanding upon the completion of the Business Combination, other than those PubCo Ordinary Shares registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form F-4 of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, will be “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may be sold publicly in the United States only if they are subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirement such as those provided by Rule 144 and Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act. In general, beginning 90 days after the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who, at the time of a sale, is not, and has not been during the three months preceding the sale, an affiliate of PubCo and has beneficially owned the Combined Company’s restricted securities for at least six months will be entitled to sell the restricted securities without registration under the Securities Act, subject only to the availability of current public information about the Combined Company. Persons who are affiliates of the Combined Company and have beneficially owned the Combined Company’s restricted securities for at least six months may sell a number of restricted securities within any three-month period that does not exceed the greater of the following:

| ● | 1% of the then outstanding equity shares of the same class which, immediately after the Closing of the Business Combination will equal approximately 193,051 PubCo Ordinary Shares, of the 19,305,182 total issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares, assuming no further redemptions of Cetus Capital Public Shares for cash, and assuming there are no further adjustments to the merger consideration due to shareholders of MKD BVI arising from closing cash and debt amounts of MKD Taiwan, such that 14,343,228 PubCo Ordinary Shares are issued to MKD BVI shareholders; or

| ● | the average weekly trading volume of the PubCo Ordinary Shares during the four calendar weeks preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed with the SEC.

Sales by affiliates of PubCo under Rule 144 are also subject to certain requirements relating to manner of sale, notice and the availability of current public information about PubCo.

160

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

| ● | the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

| ● | the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

| ● | the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

| ● | at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Cetus Capital had 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock outstanding. Of these shares, 2,058,934 shares sold in Cetus Capital’s IPO are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares purchased by one of Cetus Capital’s affiliates within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. All of the 1,781,875 shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor and EF Hutton are restricted securities under Rule 144, in that they were issued in private transactions not involving a public offering.

Registration Rights

At the Closing, PubCo, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, EF Hutton and certain other holders of the securities of Cetus Capital will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, PubCo will agree to provide such holders with certain rights relating to the registration for resale of certain PubCo Ordinary Shares held by such holders at, or acquired by such holders in connection with, the Closing of the Business Combination. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement will provide certain demand and piggyback registration rights to the applicable shareholders, subject to underwriter cutbacks and issuer blackout periods. PubCo will agree to pay certain fees and expenses relating to registrations under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement. PubCo also agreed to register the resale of the PubCo Ordinary Shares that may be issued to EF Hutton pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement.

DESCRIPTION OF CETUS CAPITAL’s SECURITIES

General

The following description summarizes all of the material terms of Cetus Capital’s securities. Because it is only a summary, it may not contain all the information that is important to you. For a complete description you should refer to Cetus Capital’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement that Cetus Capital filed in connection with the IPO. Pursuant to the Existing Charter, Cetus Capital’s authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 4,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

Units

Each Public Unit consists of one share of Cetus Common Stock, one Cetus Warrant and one Cetus Right. Each Cetus Warrant is exercisable for one share of Cetus Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Each Cetus Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-sixth (1/6) of a share of Cetus Common Stock upon consummation of an initial business combination. Cetus Capital will not issue fractional shares of Cetus Common Stock in connection with an exchange of Cetus Rights. As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of six in order to receive shares for all of your rights upon closing of a business combination.

The Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights comprising the Public Units began separate trading on March 24, 2023. Holders have the option to continue to hold Public Units or separate their Public Units into the component pieces. Holders will need to have their brokers contact Cetus Capital’s transfer agent in order to separate the Public Units into shares of Cetus Common Stock, Cetus Warrants and Cetus Rights.

Private Units

The Private Units are identical to the Public Units sold in the IPO except that there will be no redemption rights with respect to the Private Units, which will expire worthless if Cetus Capital does not consummate a business combination within the Business Combination Period. With certain limited exceptions, the Private Units are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to officers and directors of Cetus Capital and to other persons or entities affiliated with or related to the Sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination.

Common Stock

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, and after giving effect to the redemption of 3,691,066 Public Shares in connection with the Extension Meeting, there are 3,840,809 shares of Cetus Common Stock issued and outstanding.

Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of Cetus Capital’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, except as required by law. Unless specified in the Existing Charter or in the bylaws of Cetus Capital, or as required by applicable provisions of the DGCL or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by stockholders. The Cetus Board is divided into three classes, each of which will generally serve for a term of three years with only one class of directors being elected in each year. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Cetus Capital stockholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

162

Because the Existing Charter authorizes the issuance of up to 50,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, if Cetus Capital were to enter into an initial business combination, it may (depending on the terms of such an initial business combination) be required to increase the number of shares of Class A common stock which it is authorized to issue at the same time as its stockholders vote on the initial business combination to the extent it seeks stockholder approval in connection with an initial business combination.

In accordance with Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, Cetus Capital is not required to hold an annual meeting until no later than one year after its first fiscal year end following our listing on Nasdaq. Under Section 211(b) of the DGCL, Cetus Capital is, however, required to hold an annual meeting of stockholders for the purposes of electing directors in accordance with its bylaws, unless such election is made by written consent in lieu of such a meeting. Cetus Capital may not hold an annual meeting of stockholders to elect new directors prior to the consummation of its initial business combination, and thus it may not be in compliance with Section 211(b) of the DGCL, which requires an annual meeting. Therefore, if Cetus Capital’s stockholders want it to hold an annual meeting prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, they may attempt to force Cetus Capital to hold one by submitting an application to the Delaware Court of Chancery in accordance with Section 211(c) of the DGCL.

Cetus Capital will provide its stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of an initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of an initial business combination including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Cetus Capital to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the Trust Account was approximately $22.2 million, or approximately $10.79 per Public Share, as of June 4, 2024, without giving effect to any tax expense withdrawals. The per-share amount distributed to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriter of the IPO. Our initial stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, placement shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. Unlike many blank check companies that hold stockholder votes and conduct proxy solicitations in conjunction with their initial business combinations and provide for related redemptions of public shares for cash upon completion of such initial business combinations even when a vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange requirements, if a stockholder vote is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to the Existing Charter, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination. The Existing Charter requires these tender offer documents to contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules. If, however, a stockholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange requirements, or we decide to obtain stockholder approval for business or other legal reasons, we will, like many blank check companies, offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If we seek stockholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the initial business combination. A quorum for such meeting will consist of the holders present in person or by proxy of shares of outstanding capital stock of the company representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the company entitled to vote at such meeting. The underwriters will have the same redemption rights as a public stockholder with respect to any Public Shares it acquires. To the extent our initial stockholders or purchasers of Private Units transfer any of these securities to certain permitted transferees, such permitted transferees will agree, as a condition to such transfer, to waive these same redemption rights. Also, if we submit our initial business combination to our Public Stockholders for a vote, our Sponsor, the other initial stockholders, our officers and our directors have agreed to vote their respective founder shares, placement shares and any Public Shares held by them in favor of our initial business combination.

The participation of our Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates in privately-negotiated transactions, if any, could result in the approval of an initial business combination even if a majority of our Public Stockholders vote, or indicate their intention to vote, against such business combination. For purposes of seeking approval of the majority of the outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock voted, non-votes will have no effect on the approval of an initial business combination once a quorum is obtained. These quorum and voting thresholds, and the voting agreements of our initial stockholders, may make it more likely that we will consummate an initial business combination.

163

If we seek stockholder approval of an initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with an initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Existing Charter provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares of Cetus Common Stock sold in the IPO, which we refer to as the Excess Shares. However, we would not be restricting our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against, or to abstain from voting on, an initial business combination. Our stockholders’ inability to redeem the Excess Shares will reduce their influence over our ability to complete an initial business combination, and such stockholders could suffer a material loss in their investment if they sell such Excess Shares on the open market. Additionally, such stockholders will not receive redemption distributions with respect to the Excess Shares if we complete an initial business combination. And, as a result, such stockholders will continue to hold that number of shares exceeding 15% and, in order to dispose such shares would be required to sell their stock in open market transactions, potentially at a loss.

If we seek stockholder approval in connection with an initial business combination, pursuant to the letter agreement our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote any founder shares and placement shares held by them and any Public Shares they may acquire during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of an initial business combination. As a result, (A) we would not need any of the Public Shares to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to have such initial business combination approved (assuming that only a quorum was present at the meeting and assuming the shares issued to EF Hutton in the IPO are voted in favor of such initial business combination), and (B) in the event that all outstanding shares of Cetus Common Stock are voted, we would need 138,530 or 6.7%, of the Public Shares to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to have such initial business combination approved (assuming the shares issued to EF Hutton in the IPO are voted in favor of such initial business combination). Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem its Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against, or abstain from voting on, the proposed transaction (subject to the limitation described in the preceding paragraph).

Pursuant to the Existing Charter, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the Business Combination Period, 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 subject to lawfully available funds therefor, 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less 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 Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and the Cetus Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Our initial stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares, placement shares and representative shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Business Combination Period. However, if our initial stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the IPO, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Business Combination Period.

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Cetus Capital after an initial business combination, our stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the Cetus Common Stock. Our stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the Cetus Common Stock, except that we will provide our stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, upon the completion of our initial business combination, subject to the limitations described herein.

164

Founder Shares, Placement Shares and Representative Shares

The founder shares, placement shares and representative shares are identical to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Public Units, and holders of founder shares, placement shares and representative shares have the same stockholder rights as Public Stockholders, except that (i) the founder shares, placement shares and representative shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, (ii) our initial stockholders have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, placement shares, representative shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of an initial business combination, (B) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, placement shares, representative shares and any Public Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Existing Charter (x) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with an initial business combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete an initial business combination within the Business Combination Period or (y) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (C) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares held by them if we fail to complete an initial business combination within the Business Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if we fail to complete an initial business combination within such time period, (iii) the founder shares are shares of Class A common stock converted from shares of Class B common stock at the discretion of the holder(s) at any time after the issuance thereof or otherwise automatically at the time of the consummation of an initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution rights as described herein, and (iv) are entitled to registration rights. If we submit our initial business combination to our Public Stockholders for a vote, our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote any founder shares and placement shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of an initial business combination.

The shares of Class B common stock (x) are convertible at any time at the discretion of the holder(s) thereof into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, and (y) to the extent not previously converted into shares of Class A common stock, will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the consummation of an initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, in each case, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in this proxy statement/prospectus and related to the closing of the initial business combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock upon an automatic conversion in connection with the closing of an initial business combination will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of the IPO (excluding the Private Units and underlying securities and issuance of representative shares) plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial business combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination, any private placement-equivalent units and their underlying securities issued to our Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to us). We cannot determine at this time whether a majority of the holders of our Class B common stock at the time of any future issuance would agree to waive such adjustment to the conversion ratio. If such adjustment is not waived, the issuance would not reduce the percentage ownership of holders of Class B common stock, but would reduce the percentage ownership of holders of Class A common stock. If such adjustment is waived, the issuance would reduce the percentage ownership of holders of both classes of common stock. The term “equity-linked securities” refers to any debt or equity securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock issued in a financing transaction in connection with an initial business combination, including but not limited to a private placement of equity or debt. Securities could be “deemed issued” for purposes of the conversion rate adjustment if such shares are issuable upon the conversion or exercise of convertible securities, warrants or similar securities.

165

With certain limited exceptions, the founder shares are not transferable, assignable or saleable (except to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with our Sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of an initial business combination and (B) subsequent to an initial business combination, (x) if the reported last sale price of Cetus Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Preferred Stock

The Existing Charter provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Cetus Board is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. The Cetus Board is able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of the Cetus Board to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of the company or the removal of existing management. There are no shares of preferred stock outstanding at the date hereof. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.

Redeemable Warrants

Public Stockholders’ Warrants

Each Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement for the IPO and the date of the consummation of an initial business combination.

The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of an initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

We will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a Public Unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the Public Unit solely for the share of common stock underlying such Public Unit.

We have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of an initial business combination, we will use our best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of an initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of an initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

166

Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, we may call the warrants for redemption:

| ● | in whole and not in part;

| ● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption given after the warrants become exercisable (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

| ● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, right issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

During the thirty (30) day period ending on June 7, 2024, the closing price of the Public Shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market fluctuated between $10.51 and $10.63, and the 52 week range for the Public Shares as reported by Yahoo! Finance on June 7, 2024 was $10.23 to $11.53, in each case far lower than the price that would be necessary to trigger the redemption right. In the event Cetus Capital elects to redeem the Public Warrants that are subject to redemption, Cetus Capital will mail the notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the redemption date to the registered holders of the Public Warrants to be redeemed at their last addresses as they appear on the registration books. Any notice mailed in such manner will be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the registered holder received such notice. Additionally, while Cetus Capital is required to provide such notice of redemption, Cetus Capital is not separately required to, and does not currently intend to, notify any holders of when the Public Warrants become eligible for redemption.

If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may not exercise our redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise thereof is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or we are unable to effect such registration or qualification. We will use our best efforts to register or qualify such shares of common stock under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the warrants were offered by us in the IPO.

We have established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Class A common stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

If we call the Public Warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” for this purpose shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Class A common stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after our initial business combination. If we call our warrants for redemption and our management does not take advantage of this option, our Sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that they and the other warrant holders would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

167

A holder of a Public Warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Class A common stock, or by a split-up of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each whole warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Class A common stock. A rights offering to holders of Class A common stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Class A common stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A common stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Class A common stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock, in determining the price payable for Class A common stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A common stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Class A common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the Public Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Class A common stock on account of such shares of Class A common stock (or other shares of our capital stock into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Existing Charter (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with an initial business combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of our Class A common stock if we do not complete an initial business combination within the Business Combination Period or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our Public Shares upon our failure to complete an initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Class A common stock in respect of such event.

If the number of outstanding shares of our Class A common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each Public Warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

Whenever the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

168

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the Public Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the shares of our Class A common stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event.

The Public Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between CST, as warrant agent, and us. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement filed by Cetus Capital in connection with the IPO, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any mistake, but requires the approval by the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of an initial business combination at an issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Cetus Board and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of an initial business combination on the date of the consummation of an initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the market value is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the market value and the issue price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the market value and the issue price.

The Public Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of Class A common stock. After the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to claims under the Exchange Act or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum. In addition, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the full extent permitted by law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Private Warrants

Except as described below, the Private Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability, redemption, and exercise period. The Private Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Warrants) are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (except, among other limited exceptions, to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with our Sponsor).

169

In addition, holders of our Private Warrants are entitled to certain registration rights.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete an initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of an initial business combination. The units would be identical to the Private Units. However, as the units would not be issued until consummation of an initial business combination, any warrants underlying such units would not be able to be voted on an amendment to the warrant agreement in connection with such business combination.

We may also receive loans from the Sponsor to finance any extension of the deadline for consummating the initial business combination. The Sponsor would receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the even that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so. Such notes would be repaid upon consummation of the initial business combination, or all, or any portion, of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the Sponsor, upon consummation of an initial business combination. The units would be identical to the Private Units.

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Warrants (including the common stock issuable upon exercise of any of these warrants) until the date that is 30 days after the date we complete an initial business combination, except for, among other limited exceptions, transfers made to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor.

Rights included as part of Units

Except in cases where Cetus Capital is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a Cetus Right will automatically receive one-sixth (1/6) of a share of Cetus Common Stock upon consummation of an initial business combination, even if the holder of a Public Right converted all Public Shares held by him, her or it in connection with an initial business combination or an amendment to the Existing Charter with respect to pre-business combination activities. In the event Cetus Capital will not be the surviving company upon completion of an initial business combination, each holder of a Cetus Right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its Cetus Rights in order to receive the one-sixth (1/6) of a share underlying each Cetus Right upon consummation of the business combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Cetus Rights in order to receive his, her or its additional shares upon consummation of an initial business combination. The shares issuable upon exchange of the Cetus Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of Cetus Capital). If Cetus Capital enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which it will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Cetus Rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of Cetus Common Stock will receive in the transaction on an as-converted basis.

Cetus Capital will not issue fractional shares of Cetus Common Stock in connection with an exchange of Cetus Rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware law. As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of six in order to receive shares for all of your rights upon closing of a business combination. If Cetus Capital is are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period and it liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Cetus Rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Cetus Rights, nor will they receive any distribution from assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Cetus Rights, and the Cetus Rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the Cetus Rights upon consummation of an initial business combination. Additionally, in no event will Cetus Capital be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the Cetus Rights may expire worthless.

170

Dividends

Cetus Capital has not paid any cash dividends on Cetus Common Stock to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of a business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon Cetus Capital’s revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial conditions subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to a business combination will be within the discretion of the Cetus Board at such time. Further, if Cetus Capital incurs any indebtedness, Cetus Capital’s ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants Cetus Capital may agree to in connection therewith.

Cetus Capital’s Transfer Agent, Warrant Agent and Rights Agent

The transfer agent for Cetus Common Stock, the warrant agent for Cetus Warrants, and the rights agent for Cetus Rights, is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004. Cetus Capital has agreed to indemnify Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in its roles as transfer agent, warrant agent and rights agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all claims and losses that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and Cetus Capital’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws

Cetus Capital is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL, regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

| ● | a stockholder who owns 15% or more of Cetus Capital’s outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

| ● | an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

| ● | an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of the assets of Cetus Capital. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

| ● | the Cetus Board approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction;

| ● | after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of Cetus Capital’s voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

| ● | on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by Cetus Board and authorized at a meeting of Cetus Capital’s stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

The Existing Charter provides that the Cetus Board will be classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of the Cetus Board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

The authorized but unissued shares of Cetus Common Stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Cetus Capital by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

171

Special meeting of stockholders

Cetus Capital’s bylaws provide that special meetings of Cetus Capital’s stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of the Cetus Board, by the Chairman or by the Chief Executive Officer.

Advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and director nominations

The bylaws of Cetus Capital provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before its annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at its annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice will need to be received by the corporate secretary at the principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in Cetus Capital’s annual proxy statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. Cetus Capital’s bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders’ meeting. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before Cetus Capital’s annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at Cetus Capital’s annual meeting of stockholders.

Exclusive forum for certain lawsuits

The Existing Charter requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in the company’s name, actions against directors, officers and employees for breach of fiduciary duty and certain other actions may be brought only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, except any action (A) as to which the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), (B) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery or (C) for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. If an action is brought outside of Delaware, the stockholder bringing the suit will be deemed to have consented to service of process on such stockholder’s counsel. Although Cetus Capital believes this provision benefits it by providing increased consistency in the application of law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, a court may determine that this provision is unenforceable, and to the extent it is enforceable, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against Cetus Capital’s directors and officers.

The Existing Charter provides that the exclusive forum provision will be applicable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject to certain exceptions. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. In addition, the Existing Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. However, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this provision, and it is noted that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for state and federal courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

172

DESCRIPTION OF PUBCO’S SECURITIES

PubCo is a business company incorporated in the BVI and its affairs are governed by the memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time, the Companies Act, and the common law of the BVI.

PubCo currently has only one class of issued ordinary shares, which have identical rights in all respects and rank equally with one another. PubCo is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.0001 each, divided into (a) ordinary shares and (b) five (5) classes of preferred shares.

PubCo Ordinary Shares

The following includes a summary of the terms of PubCo Ordinary Shares, based on its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and BVI law. Immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo shall amend its memorandum and articles of association, which amendment is referred to herein as the Proposed PubCo Charter. According to the Proposed PubCo Charter, PubCo is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of a par value of $0.0001 each divided into (a) ordinary shares and (b) five (5) classes of preferred shares.

General. Immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, PubCo is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of a par value of $0.0001 each divided into (a) ordinary shares and (b) five (5) classes of preferred shares. All of PubCo’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Certificates representing the ordinary shares do not need to be issued as a matter of BVI law and will not be issued. PubCo may not issue shares to bearer. PubCo’s shareholders who are non-residents of the BVI may freely hold and transfer their ordinary shares.

Dividends. The holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by its Board of Directors subject to the Proposed PubCo Charter and the Companies Act. The Proposed PubCo Charter provides that PubCo may authorize a dividend if the directors are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that PubCo will satisfy the “solvency test” as set out in the Companies Act, meaning that, immediately after the dividend, the value of PubCo’s assets exceeds its liabilities, and PubCo is able to pay its debts as they fall due.

Shareholders’ Meetings. The following summarizes certain relevant provisions of BVI law and the Proposed PubCo Charter in relation to our shareholders’ meetings:

| ● | the directors of PubCo may convene meetings of shareholders at such times and in such manner and places within or outside the BVI as the directors consider necessary or desirable;

| ● | upon the written request of shareholders entitled to exercise 30% or more of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested, the directors are required to convene a meeting of the shareholders while any such request must state the proposed purpose of the meeting;
| ● | the directors convening a meeting must give not less than seven clear days’ notice of the proposed meeting to those persons whose names, on the date the notice is given, appear as a shareholder in the register of members of PubCo and are entitled to vote at the meeting. In determining “clear days”, the day the notice is received and the day on which the proposed meeting is to be held are not counted;
| ● | a shareholder may be represented at a meeting of shareholders by a proxy who may speak and vote on behalf of the shareholder;
| ● | a meeting of shareholders is duly constituted if, at the commencement of the meeting, there are present in person or by proxy shareholders whose shares represent a majority of the votes of the shares entitled to vote on resolutions of shareholders to be considered at the meeting;
| ● | a resolution of shareholders is passed at a meeting of shareholders where approved by a simple majority of the shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting. In computing the majority when a poll is demanded, regard shall be had to the number of votes to which each shareholder is entitled by the articles of association.

173

As permitted by BVI law, the Proposed PubCo Charter permits the adoption by the shareholders of resolutions in writing, provided that such resolution is approved by the holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote thereon.

Liquidation. On a liquidation of PubCo, the holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of PubCo’s assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all of its liabilities.

Inspection of Books and Records. Holders of PubCo Ordinary Shares have no general right under BVI law to inspect or obtain copies of PubCo’s list of shareholders or its corporate records. However, PubCo will provide its shareholders with annual audited financial statements. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Issuance of Additional Shares. The Proposed PubCo Charter authorizes its Board of Directors to issue additional ordinary shares from time to time as its Board of Directors shall determine, to the extent of available authorized but unissued shares.

The Proposed PubCo Charter also authorizes the PubCo Board to establish and designate from time to time up to five classes of preferred shares and to determine, with respect to any series of preferred shares, the terms and rights of that series, including:

| ● | the designation of the series;
| ● | the number of shares of the series;
| ● | the dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights; and
| ● | the rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences.

The PubCo Board may issue preferred shares without action by its shareholders to the extent authorized but unissued. Issuance of these shares may dilute the voting power of holders of ordinary shares. It should be noted that the rights attaching to any preferred shares may rank in priority to those attached to PubCo Ordinary Shares.

Anti-Takeover Provisions. Some provisions of the Proposed PubCo Charter may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of PubCo or management that shareholders may consider favorable, including provisions that authorize the PubCo Board to issue preferred shares in one or more series and to designate the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such preferred shares without any further vote or action by its shareholders.

PubCo Warrants

Each of the Pubco Warrants shall have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable agreements governing the Public Warrants and Private Warrants issued by Cetus Capital, with the PubCo replacing Cetus Capital, that are outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger between Cetus Capital and MKDMerger2 Inc. See “Description of Cetus Capital’s Securities—Redeemable Warrants—Public Stockholders’ Warrants.”

APPRAISAL RIGHTS

Appraisal Rights of MKD Shareholders

MKD shareholders do not have appraisal rights under the DGCL in connection with the Business Combination.

Appraisal Rights of Cetus Capital Stockholders

Under the DGCL, if a holder of record of Cetus Common Stock or a beneficial owner of Cetus Common Stock (such persons referred to in this section individually as a “Cetus Holder” and collectively as “Cetus Holders”) does not wish to accept the consideration provided for in the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination is completed, such Cetus Holder has the right to seek appraisal of their shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock and to receive payment in cash for the fair value of their shares of capital stock, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the transaction, as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Court”), together with interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value of such shares of capital stock. These rights are known as appraisal rights under the DGCL. The “fair value” of such shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital as determined by the Court may be more or less than, or the same as, the consideration that a Cetus Holder is otherwise entitled to receive for the same number of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. Cetus Holders that elect to exercise appraisal rights must not vote in favor of, or consent in writing to, the Business Combination Proposal, which, among other things, adopts the Business Combination Agreement, and must comply with the other provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL to perfect their rights, as applicable. Strict compliance with the statutory procedures in Section 262 of the DGCL is required. A Cetus Holder that wishes to exercise appraisal rights, or preserve the ability to do so, must, among other things, not deliver a signed written consent in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, which, among other things, adopts the Business Combination Agreement. Any signed written consent returned will be counted as adopting the Business Combination Agreement unless otherwise provided therein.

This section is intended only as a brief summary of the material provisions of the Delaware statutory procedures under the DGCL that a Cetus Holder must follow in order to seek and perfect appraisal rights. This summary, however, is not a complete statement of all applicable requirements and the law pertaining to appraisal rights under the DGCL, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 262 of the DGCL, which should be reviewed carefully by any Cetus Holder that wishes to exercise appraisal rights or that wishes to preserve the right to do so, since failure to comply with the procedures of the statute will result in the loss of appraisal rights. The following summary does not constitute any legal or other advice, nor does it constitute a recommendation that Cetus Holders exercise their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL. Unless otherwise noted herein or in the notice of appraisal rights to be sent following approval of the Business Combination Proposal, all references in this summary to “Cetus stockholders” or “you” are to the record holders of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock immediately prior to the Effective Time as to which appraisal rights are asserted. All references in this section to “beneficial owner” means the beneficial owner of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock held either in voting trust or by a nominee on behalf of such person. A person having a beneficial interest in shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital held of record in the name of another person that wishes to have the holder of record of such shares of capital stock exercise appraisal rights on their behalf must act promptly to cause the record holder to follow the steps summarized below properly and in a timely manner to perfect appraisal rights.

Section 262 of the DGCL requires that, where a Business Combination Agreement is adopted by a written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting of stockholders, certain stockholders must be given notice that appraisal rights are available. A copy of Section 262 of the DGCL, or information directing the stockholders to a publicly available electronic resource at which Section 262 of the DGCL may be accessed without subscription or cost, must be included with such notice. Only those stockholders that do not submit a written consent approving the adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and that have otherwise complied with Section 262 of the DGCL are entitled to receive such notice. The notice may be given by Cetus Capital. If given at or after the effective date of the business combination (and no later than 10 days after the effective date), the notice must also specify the effective date of the business combination; otherwise, a supplementary notice will provide this information. If such supplementary notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such supplementary notice need only be sent to each stockholder of record and beneficial owner that is entitled to appraisal rights and that has demanded appraisal in compliance with Section 262 of the DGCL.

Following Cetus Capital’s receipt of written consents sufficient to approve the Business Combination Proposal, which, among other things, adopts the Business Combination Agreement, Cetus Capital will send all non-consenting Cetus stockholders that satisfy the other statutory conditions a separate notice regarding the receipt of such written consents (the “appraisal notice”). A Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner electing to exercise their appraisal rights will need to take action at that time in response to such appraisal notice, but this description is being provided to all Cetus stockholders now so that you can determine whether you wish to preserve your ability to demand appraisal rights in the future in response to such appraisal notice.

178

How to Preserve, Exercise and Perfect Your Appraisal Rights

In order to preserve your right to receive notice and to demand appraisal rights, you must not deliver a written consent approving the Business Combination Proposal, which, among other things, adopts the Business Combination Agreement. Consents that are executed and delivered will be counted as adopting the Business Combination Agreement unless otherwise provided therein, which will also eliminate any appraisal rights. As described below, you must, among other things, also continue to hold your shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock through the Effective Time.

If you elect to demand appraisal of your shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock, the record holder (or, as described below, beneficial owner) of the shares must deliver at the specific address that will be included in the appraisal notice, a written demand for appraisal of your shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital within 20 days after the date of the giving of the appraisal notice. Do not submit a demand before the date the appraisal notice is given, as a demand that is made before the date of such appraisal notice may not be effective to perfect your appraisal rights.

A Cetus stockholder wishing to exercise appraisal rights must hold of record the shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock on the date the written demand for appraisal is made and must continue to hold of record the shares of capital stock through the Effective Time. Appraisal rights will be lost if, after a demand for appraisal has been made for your shares of capital stock, such shares are transferred prior to the effective time. If a demand for appraisal is made by a beneficial owner, appraisal rights will be lost for such shares if the beneficial owner fails to own such shares through the effective time. If you are not the Cetus stockholder of record, you will need to follow special procedures as discussed further below.

If you and/or the record holder of your shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock fail to comply with all of the conditions required by Section 262 of the DGCL to perfect your appraisal rights, and the first merger is completed, you (assuming that you hold your shares through the Effective Time) will be entitled to receive payment for your shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital as provided for in the Business Combination Agreement, without interest, but you will have no appraisal rights with respect to your shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital.

In order to satisfy Section 262 of the DGCL, a demand for appraisal in respect of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock must reasonably inform Cetus Capital of the identity of the Cetus stockholder of record and their intent to seek appraisal rights. The demand for appraisal should be executed by or on behalf of the holder of record of the shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock, fully and correctly, as the stockholder’s name appears on Cetus Capital’s stock transfer books, should specify the stockholder’s name and mailing address and the number of shares of capital stock registered in the stockholder’s name, and must state that the person intends thereby to demand appraisal of the stockholder’s shares of capital stock in connection with the business combination. The demand may also be made by a beneficial owner of the capital stock of Cetus Capital if, in addition to otherwise satisfying the foregoing requirements, (i) such beneficial owner continuously owns such shares of capital stock through the Effective Time and otherwise satisfies the requirements for appraisal applicable to a stockholder of record under subsection (a) of Section 262 of the DGCL and (ii) the demand made by such beneficial owner reasonably identifies the holder of record of the shares of capital stock for which the demand is made, is accompanied by documentary evidence of such beneficial owner’s beneficial ownership of capital stock and a statement that such documentary evidence is a true and correct copy of what it purports to be, and provides an address at which such beneficial owner consents to receive notices and to be set forth on the verified list described below. Alternatively, the beneficial owner of shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital may have the holder of record of such shares of capital stock submit the required demand in respect of such shares.

If the shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock are held of record by more than one person, as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, the demand should be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including an authorized agent for two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner; however, the agent must identify the record holder or holders (and, if any by an authorized agent of any beneficial owner or owners, must identify the beneficial owner or owners) and expressly disclose the fact that, in executing the demand, they are acting as agent. A record holder that holds shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital as a nominee for others may exercise their right of appraisal with respect to the shares of capital stock held for one or more beneficial owners, while not exercising this right for other beneficial owners. In that case, the written demand should state the number of shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital as to which appraisal is sought. Where no number of shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital is expressly mentioned, the demand for appraisal will be presumed to cover all shares of capital stock held in the name of the record holder.

179

Withdrawal: Actions After Completion of the Business Combination

At any time within 60 days after the Effective Time or thereafter with the written approval of Cetus Capital, any record holder or beneficial owner of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock that has made an appraisal demand, otherwise complied with the requirements of Section 262 of the DGCL, but has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined a proceeding as a named party, may withdraw the demand for appraisal and accept the consideration for their shares of capital stock provided for in the Business Combination Agreement by delivering to Cetus Capital a written withdrawal of the demand for appraisal. Unless the demand for appraisal is properly withdrawn by such a stockholder or beneficial owner that has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party within 60 days after the Effective Time, an appraisal proceeding in the Court will not be dismissed as to any Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner without the approval of the Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just (including without limitation, a reservation of jurisdiction for any application to the Court made with respect to the allocation of the expenses of the proceeding). If Cetus Capital does not approve a request to withdraw a demand for appraisal, or if the Court does not approve the dismissal of an appraisal proceeding, in each case when that approval is required, such stockholder or beneficial owner will be entitled to receive only the fair value of their shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital (together with interest, if any), determined in any such appraisal proceeding, which value could be more or less than, or the same as, the consideration for their shares of capital stock provided for in the Business Combination Agreement.

Within 120 days after the Effective Time, but not thereafter, either Cetus Capital or any record holder or beneficial owner of shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock that has made an appraisal demand, otherwise complied with the requirements of Section 262 of the DGCL and is entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL may commence an appraisal proceeding by filing a petition in the Court demanding a determination of the fair value of the shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital held by all persons entitled to appraisal. Upon the filing of such a petition by a Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner, service of a copy of such petition will be made upon Cetus Capital. MKD has no present intent to cause Cetus Capital to file such a petition and has no obligation to cause such a petition to be filed, and Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners should not assume that the surviving company will file a petition or initiate any negotiations with respect to the fair value of the capital stock of Cetus Capital. Accordingly, it is the obligation of the record holders and beneficial owners of shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital that have made an appraisal demand to initiate all necessary action to perfect their appraisal rights in respect of such shares of within the time prescribed in Section 262 of the DGCL, and the failure of a Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner to file such a petition within the period specified could nullify his, her or its their previous written demand for appraisal. In addition, within 120 days after the Effective Time, any Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner that has properly filed a written demand for appraisal, that did not submit a written consent approving the Business Combination Proposal, which, among other things, adopts the Business Combination Agreement, and has otherwise complied with the applicable requirements set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL, upon request given in writing, will be entitled to receive from Cetus Capital, a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital for which a written consent approving the Business Combination Proposal was not submitted and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received, and the aggregate number of Cetus stockholders or beneficial owners holding or owning such shares (for purposes of which the record holder of shares held by a beneficial owner that has made a demand for appraisal will not be considered a separate stockholder holding such shares). The statement must be given within 10 days after such request has been received by Cetus Capital or within 10 days after the expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal, whichever is later.

If a petition for appraisal is duly filed by a Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner that made an appraisal demand and a copy of the petition is served upon the surviving company, then Cetus Capital will be obligated, within 20 days after receiving service of a copy of the petition, to file with the Court a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners that have demanded an appraisal of their shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital have not been reached. After notice to Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners that have demanded appraisal of their shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital, if such notice is ordered by the Court, the Court is empowered to conduct a hearing upon the petition and to determine those stockholders and beneficial owners that have complied with Section 262 of the DGCL and that have become entitled to the appraisal rights provided by Section 262 of the DGCL. The Court may require Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners that have demanded appraisal of their shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital to submit their stock certificates, if any, to the Court for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings, and if any stockholder or beneficial owner fails to comply with that direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to that stockholder or beneficial owner.

180

After determination of the Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners entitled to appraisal of their shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock, the Court will appraise the shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital, determining their fair value as of the Effective Time after taking into account all relevant factors exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the transaction, together with interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the “fair value” in an appraisal proceeding. When the fair value has been determined, the Court will direct the payment of such value to the persons entitled thereto upon such terms and conditions as the Court may order. Unless the Court in its discretion determines otherwise for good cause shown, interest from the Effective Time through the date of payment of the judgment will be compounded quarterly and will accrue at 5% over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time during the period between the first merger and the date of payment of the judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time before the entry of judgment in the proceedings, Cetus Capital may pay to each person entitled to appraisal an amount in cash, which is referred to as a voluntary cash payment, in which case any such interest will accrue after the time of such payment only upon the sum of (1) the difference, if any, between the amount so paid by Cetus Capital and the fair value of the shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital as determined by the Court, and (2) interest theretofore accrued, unless paid at that time. Cetus Capital is under no obligation to make such voluntary cash payment before such entry of judgment.

No representation is made as to the outcome of the appraisal of fair value as determined by the Court, and Cetus stockholders and beneficial owners should recognize that such an appraisal could result in a determination of a value higher or lower than, or the same as, the consideration provided for in the Business Combination Agreement. Moreover, neither Cetus Capital nor MKD anticipates offering more than the consideration to any Cetus stockholder exercising appraisal rights, and Cetus Capital and MKD reserve the right to assert, in any appraisal proceeding, that, for purposes of Section 262 of the DGCL, the “fair value” of a share of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock is less than the consideration provided for in the Business Combination Agreement in respect of such share.

In determining “fair value,” the Court is required to take into account all relevant factors. In Weinberger v. UOP, Inc., the Delaware Supreme Court discussed the factors that could be considered in determining fair value in an appraisal proceeding, stating that “proof of value by any techniques or methods which are generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in court” should be considered and that “fair price obviously requires consideration of all relevant factors involving the value of a company.” The Delaware Supreme Court has stated that, in making this determination of fair value, the Court must consider market value, asset value, dividends, earnings prospects, the nature of the enterprise and any other facts that could be ascertained as of the date of the merger and that throw any light on future prospects of the merged corporation. Section 262 of the DGCL provides that fair value is to be “exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger.” In Cede & Co. v. Technicolor, Inc., the Delaware Supreme Court stated that such exclusion is a “narrow exclusion [that] does not encompass known elements of value,” but which rather applies only to the speculative elements of value arising from such accomplishment or expectation. In Weinberger, the Delaware Supreme Court construed Section 262 of the DGCL to mean that “elements of future value, including the nature of the enterprise, which are known or susceptible of proof as of the date of the merger and not the product of speculation, may be considered.” In addition, Delaware courts have decided that the statutory appraisal remedy, depending on factual circumstances, may or may not be a dissenting stockholder’s exclusive remedy.

Costs of the appraisal proceeding (which do not include attorneys’ fees or the fees and expenses of experts) may be determined by the Court and imposed upon the parties by the Court, as it deems equitable in the circumstances. Each Cetus stockholder and beneficial owner seeking appraisal is responsible for their attorneys’ and expert witness expenses; although, upon the application of any person whose name appears on the verified list filed by Cetus Capital that participated in the proceeding and incurred expenses in connection therewith, the Court could order all or a portion of such expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock entitled to appraisal not dismissed as to the proceedings or dismissed subject to such an award pursuant to a reservation of jurisdiction.

Any Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner that has duly demanded appraisal in compliance with Section 262 of the DGCL will not, after the Effective Time, be entitled to vote or deliver written consent for shares of Cetus Common Stock and/or preferred stock subject to that demand for any purpose or to receive payments of dividends or any other distributions with respect to those shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital, other than with respect to payments as of a record date prior to the Effective Time. However, if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the Effective Time, or if a Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner otherwise fails to perfect their appraisal rights, successfully withdraws their demand for appraisal or loses their right to appraisal, then the right of that Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner to appraisal will cease and that Cetus stockholder or beneficial owner will only be entitled to receive the consideration for their shares of the capital stock of Cetus Capital pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, without interest.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER U.S. SECURITIES LAWS

British Virgin Islands

PubCo was incorporated in the BVI in order to enjoy the following benefits:

| ● | political and economic stability;

| ● | an effective judicial system;

| ● | a favorable tax system;

| ● | the absence of exchange control or currency restrictions; and

| ● | the availability of professional and support services.

However, certain disadvantages accompany incorporation in the BVI. These disadvantages include, but are not limited to, the following:

| ● | the BVI has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States and these securities laws provide significantly less protection to investors; and

| ● | BVI companies may not have standing to sue before the federal courts of the United States.

PubCo’s memorandum and articles of association do not contain provisions requiring that disputes, including those arising under the securities laws of the United States, between PubCo, PubCo’s officers, directors and shareholders, be arbitrated.

Substantially all of PubCo’s operations are conducted outside the United States, and all of PubCo’s assets are located outside the United States. A majority of PubCo’s directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States, including in Taiwan and China. Due to the lack of reciprocity and treaties between the United States and some of these foreign jurisdictions, and cost and time constraints, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to enforce against PubCo or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

PubCo has appointed Puglisi & Associates as its agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against it under the securities laws of the United States after the consummation of the Business Combination.

Ogier, PubCo’s counsel as to BVI law, has advised PubCo that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the BVI would:

| ● | recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against PubCo or PubCo’s directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or

| ● | entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against PubCo or PubCo’s directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

Ogier has informed PubCo that it is uncertain whether the courts of the BVI will allow shareholders of PubCo to originate actions in the BVI based upon securities laws of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty with regard to BVI law related to whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws will be determined by the courts of the BVI as penal or punitive in nature. If such a determination is made, the courts of the BVI will not recognize or enforce the judgment against a BVI company, such as PubCo. As the courts of the BVI have yet to rule on making such a determination in relation to judgments obtained from U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws, it is uncertain whether such judgments would be enforceable in the BVI. Ogier has further informed PubCo that although there is no statutory enforcement in the BVI of judgments obtained in the federal or state courts of the United States (and the BVI is not a party to any treaties for the reciprocal enforcement or recognition of such judgments), any final and conclusive monetary judgment for a definite sum obtained against PubCo in U.S. federal or state courts would be treated by the BVI courts as a cause of action in itself and sued upon as a debt at common law so that no retrial of the issues would be necessary provided that:

182

| ● | the U.S. court issuing the judgment had jurisdiction in the matter and PubCo either submitted to such jurisdiction or was resident or carrying on business within such jurisdiction and was duly served with process;

| ● | the judgment given by the U.S. court was not in respect of penalties, taxes, fines or similar fiscal or revenue obligations of PubCo;

| ● | in obtaining judgment there was no fraud on the part of the person in whose favor judgment was given or on the part of the court;

| ● | no new admissible evidence relevant to the action was submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the BVI courts;

| ● | recognition or enforcement of the judgment in the BVI would not be contrary to public policy; and

| ● | the proceedings pursuant to which judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice.

Taiwan and PRC

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, it is contemplated that all or a significant portion of the assets of PubCo (including its subsidiaries) will be located outside the United States, with a substantial portion of those assets being located in Mainland China and Taiwan. It is also contemplated that, following the Closing of the Business Combination, all of our directors and officers will reside and hold substantially all of their assets outside of the United States, with Mr. Ming-Chia Huang, Mr. Ming-Chao Huang, Mr. Chih-Hsiang Tang, Mr. Chung-Yi Sun, and Mr. Jung-Te Chang ordinarily being residents of Taiwan and with Ms. Min-Jie Cui being a resident of Mainland China. As a result, it may be difficult, or in some cases impossible, for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights even if their rights under the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws have been infringed upon, to effect service of process upon some or all of our directors or officers, or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties on our directors, officers and/or assets under United States or BVI laws.

It may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon MKD or those persons inside Taiwan. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against MKD and its officers and directors as none of them currently resides in the U.S. or has substantial assets located in the U.S. Taiwan courts will recognize a final judgment (for which the period for appeal has expired or from which no appeal can be taken) obtained against MKD, its officers or directors in any court other than Taiwan courts without further review of the merits of such judgment, if it is satisfied that: (a) the court rendering the judgment had jurisdiction over the subject matter according to the laws of Taiwan; (b) the judgment or the court proceedings resulting in the judgment was not contrary to the public order or good morals of Taiwan; (c) if the judgment was rendered by default by the court rendering the judgment, (i) MKD or its officers, directors or such persons was duly served in the jurisdiction of such court within a reasonable period of time in accordance with the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction, or (ii) process was served on MKD or its officers, directors or such persons with judicial assistance of Taiwan; and (d) judgments of Taiwan courts would be recognized and enforceable in the jurisdiction of the court rendering such judgment on a reciprocal basis. Hence, in certain cases, claimants may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions against MKD’s group entities or management.

With respect to the directors of PubCo following the Closing of the Business Combination who reside in China, you should note that China does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the United States, the BVI and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible. Shareholder claims that are common in the United States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States has not been efficient in the absence of a mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of the competent PRC securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties.

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, PubCo has been advised by its PRC legal counsel, Jingtian & Gongcheng, that save for a filing with the CSRC which has been submitted on September 21, 2023, neither MKD Taiwan, nor any of its subsidiaries, is currently required to obtain any other permissions or approvals from Chinese authorities, including the CSRC or Cybersecurity Administration Committee, or CAC, to list on U.S exchanges or issue securities to foreign investors. In addition, in December 2023, MKD was informed by CSRC that it is not within the scope of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. As advised by Jingtian & Gongcheng, MKD believes that the Business Combination and listing on Nasdaq does not require further review or approval by CSRC. Ogier, PubCo’s BVI counsel, has also advised that MKD Taiwan does not require any approvals from any BVI authority. However, if MKD Taiwan or any of its subsidiaries were required to obtain permissions or approvals in the future and were denied permissions or approvals from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, neither MKD Taiwan nor any such subsidiary will be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange, which could materially affect the interest of the investors. It is uncertain when and whether MKD Taiwan will be required to obtain permissions or approvals from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission or approval is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries are not denied any permissions or approvals that they are required to obtain from Chinese authorities to operate their business. Although MKD Taiwan and its subsidiaries are currently not required to obtain permission or approval from any PRC government agency and have not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, our operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the PubCo Ordinary Shares and the PubCo Warrants will be passed upon by Ogier, BVI counsel to PubCo. Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP is serving as counsel to MKD Taiwan with respect to certain legal matters as to United States federal securities laws and New York State law in connection with the transactions described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP will opine on the validity of the PubCo Warrants. The material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. holders shall be passed upon by Pryor Cashman LLP. Pryor Cashman LLP is serving as U.S. counsel to Cetus Capital.

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on June 7, 2022. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through March 31, 2024, are related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO” as defined below in Note 3 and “Subsequent Event” in Note 9). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company is identifying a target company for a Business Combination and the proposed acquisition of MKDWELL Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“MKD BVI”) (see Note 6).

The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is Cetus Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on January 31, 2023. On February 3, 2023, the Company consummated the IPO of 5,750,000 units (the “Public Units’), including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Units granted to the underwriters. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with the Sponsor of 286,875 units (the “Private Units” as described in Note 4), generating total proceeds of $2,868,750, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to Private Units at $10.00 per Unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), one redeemable warrant entitling its holder to purchase one Share at a price of $11.50 per Share, and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination.

Transaction costs amounted to $3,346,850, consisting of $862,500 of underwriting fees, $1,725,000 of deferred underwriting fees that will be payable only upon completion of a Business Combination, $137,448 representing the fair value of the Representative Shares (defined below), and $621,902 of other offering costs.

In addition, in conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued to the underwriter 57,500 shares of Class A common stock for nominal consideration (the “Representative Shares”). The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under ASC 718, Stock compensation, is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $137,448.

Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement on February 3, 2023, a total of $58,506,250 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. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial Business Combination and the liquidation due to the Company’s failure to complete a Business Combination within the applicable period of time. 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 stockholders. In addition, interest income earned on the funds in the Trust Account may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by the Company may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net proceeds of the IPO and private placement not held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the Company’s initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the funds in the Trust account (excluding any deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80% test, at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial Business Combination, although the Company may structure a Business Combination with one or more target businesses whose fair market value significantly exceeds 80% of the trust account balance. If the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, it will not be required to satisfy the 80% test. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction 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.

The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.175 per Public 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 franchise and income tax obligations). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) (the “Initial Stockholders”) and the underwriters have agreed (a) to vote their Founder Shares, Private Shares (as defined in Note 4), and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares (including the Founder Shares) in connection with a stockholder vote to approve, or sell the shares to the Company in any tender offer in connection with, a proposed Business Combination.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Shares, and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company will have until nine months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”) (subject to three three-month extensions of time, as set forth in the Company’s registration statement). If the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate its initial Business Combination within nine months, it may, by resolution of our board of directors, if requested by our Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination by three additional periods of three months each (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a business combination), by depositing into the trust account, with respect to each such three month extension, $575,000 ($0.10 per unit) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each extension.

On November 3, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an extension of an additional three (3) months from November 2, 2023 to February 2, 2024 for the completion of a business combination.

On January 31, 2024, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding Public Share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the Trust Account.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) 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 (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less certain amount of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the IPO, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 7) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.175.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (excluding the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) 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 similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.175 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 $10.175 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case 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 IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

(a) | Liquidity and Capital Resources and Going Concern Consideration

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $19,545 in cash and working capital deficit of $1,836,304. The Company’s 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 through up to $300,000 in loans available from our sponsor under an unsecured promissory note. On February 3, 2023, the total principal amount of $216,837 was converted into part of the subscription of $2,868,750 private placement at a price of $10.00 per unit. The promissory note was cancelled and no amounts were then owed under the note. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(b) | Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including any variants thereof, on the industry 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/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, 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 this uncertainty.

(c) | Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the excise tax of $387,925 was recognized for the redemption of Public Shares. The Company will continue to monitor for updates to the Company’s business along with guidance issued with respect to the IR Act to determine whether any adjustments are needed to the Company’s tax provision in future periods.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, as set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(b) 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 auditor 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.

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.

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 revenues and 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.

(d) 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 cash of $19,545 as of March 31, 2024 and $320,971 as of December 31, 2023. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(e) Cash Held in Trust Account

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $21,872,337 and $60,158,872 of the assets in the Trust Account were held in cash, respectively.

(f) Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO. As of February 3, 2023, offering costs totaled $3,346,850. This amount consisted of $862,500 of underwriting commissions, $1,725,000 of deferred underwriting commissions (payable only upon completion of a Business Combination), and $759,350 of other offering costs (which includes $137,448 of representative shares, as described in Note 7). The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company allocates offering costs between public shares, public warrants and public rights based on the estimated fair values of them at the date of issuance. Accordingly, $3,200,091 was allocated to public shares and was charged to temporary equity, and a sum of $146,759 was allocated to public warrants and public rights, and was charged to shareholders’ equity.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(g) Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of 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 the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties for the period from June 7, 2022 (inception) to March 31, 2024. 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 subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 were $119,657 and $75,973, respectively.

(h) Dividends

The Board may from time to time declare, and the Company may pay, dividends (payable in cash, property or shares of the Company’s capital stock) on the Company’s outstanding shares of capital stock, subject to applicable law and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

(i) Net income (loss) per share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the net income per share was $0.04 and the net loss per share was $0.01 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

(j) Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration 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. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

(k) Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

(l) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

The Public Warrants and Rights (see Note 3) and Placement Warrants (see Note 4) were accounted for as equity instruments as they meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(m) Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

| ● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

| ● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

| ● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Representative Shares were valued using the fair value of the Class A common stock, adjusted for the probability of consummation of the Business Combination. As such, these are considered to be non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements.

(n) Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company has made a policy election in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A and recognizes changes in redemption value in additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit in the absence of additional paid-in capital) over an expected 9-month period leading up to a Business Combination. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had recorded accretion of $8,694,268. On February 26, 2024, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed with a total amount of $38,792,466.

For issued warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

As of March 31, 2024, the amount of common stock subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Note 3 - Initial Public Offering

On February 3, 2023, the Company sold 5,750,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Units (including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Units granted to the underwriters), generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, one right (“Public Right”), and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-sixth (1/6) of a share of common stock upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and each six rights entitle the holder thereof to receive one share of common stock at the closing of an initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares. As a result, Public Rights may only be converted in multiples of six. The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the IPO, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Note 4 - Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,868,750 in a private placement, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to the Private Units at $10.00 per Unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Placement Warrants are entitled to registration rights, and the Placement Warrants (including the common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants) are not transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, except to permitted transferees. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within nine months (or on or prior to August 3, 2024 as a result of the implementation of the Extension Amendment), 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), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

(a) | Founder Shares

On June 10, 2022, the Company approved the acquisition by transfer of an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.014 per share. Such Class B common stock included an aggregate of up to 225,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor will own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial stockholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Placement Units and underlying securities and issuance of representative shares). On August 31, 2022, the Sponsor converted all of its shares of Class B common stock into 1,725,000 shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis (up to 225,000 shares of which were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part). On December 30, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered to the Company for cancellation 287,500 shares of Class A common stock for no consideration, resulting in the Sponsor owning 1,437,500 shares of Class A common stock (up to 187,500 shares of which were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part). The surrender was effective retroactively.

The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Class A common stock (except to certain permitted transferees as disclosed herein) until, with respect to any of the Class A common stock, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, or earlier, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other property.

As of March 31, 2024, 1,437,500 Founder Shares were issued and outstanding and none of the Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option on February 1, 2023.

(b) | Promissory Note — Related Party

On June 10, 2022, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 to be used for payment of the Company’s formation costs together with costs related to the Initial Public Offering. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) May 31, 2023, or (ii) or the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

On March 31, 2023, the $216,837 that had been borrowed under the promissory note with our sponsor was converted into part of the subscription of $2,868,750 private placement at a price of $10.00 per unit. The promissory note was cancelled and no amounts were owed under the note.

(c) | Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete an initial business combination, the Sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit funds into the Trust Account, the amount of which funds were originally $575,000 for each three-month extension and are currently $50,000 for each one-month extension. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of an initial business combination. The units would be identical to the Private Units. However, as the units would not be issued until consummation of an initial business combination, any warrants underlying such units would not be able to be voted on an amendment to the warrant agreement in connection with such business combination.

As of March 31, 2024, working capital loans from related parties were $274,737, which consisted of a) interest-free loan of $235,737 provided by Awinner Limited, which was 100% owned by Chung-Yi Sun, Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and b) interest-free loan of $39,000 provided by Cetus Sponsor LLC, which was 100% owned by Chung-Yi Sun. These loans were due on demand.

(d) | Extension Loan

Following the approval by the Board of Directors of an extension of an additional three (3) months from November 2, 2023 to February 2, 2024 for the completion of a business combination (the “Extension”), on October 31, 2023, the Sponsor deposited an aggregate of $575,000 into the Company’s trust account. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to the Company (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”).

On December 14, 2023, the Company, the Sponsor, the members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton LLC executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, the Company, the Sponsor and EF Hutton LLC, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of the common stock of the Company held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the business combination deadline of the Company, including but not limited to those shares of the common stock of the Company pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

On January 31, 2024, the Company held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s Board (the “2024 Extension”). The Company implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension. In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused four additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $200,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for four additional one month periods, until June 3, 2024. These deposits were made in respect of a loan to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). In addition, the Sponsor and the Company entered into a Stock Pledge Agreement with respect to the pledge of the Pledged Shares.

On February 1, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fourth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from February 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, Extension Loan provided by the Sponsor amounted to $675,000.

Note 6 - Business Combination Agreement

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan corporation (the “MKD Taiwan”), MKD BVI, and Ming-Chia Huang, in his capacity as the representative of the shareholders of MKD Taiwan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”).

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates, among other things, that: (A) the Shareholders’ Representative will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company (“Pubco”) for the purpose of serving as the public listed company whose shares shall be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which company shall initially be owned by the Shareholders’ Representative; (B) Pubco will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub 1”) for the sole purpose of merging with and into MKD BVI (the “Acquisition Merger”), with MKD BVI being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; (C) Pubco will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub 2”) for the sole purpose of the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “SPAC Merger”), in which the Company will be the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; (D) MKD BVI and Merger Sub 1 will effect the Acquisition Merger; and (E) the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger.

The Acquisition Merger, the SPAC Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”.

The aggregate consideration to be paid to the shareholders of MKD BVI for the Acquisition Merger is US$230 million (less the amount of Closing Company Debt plus the amount of Closing Company Cash), payable on the Closing Date in the form of a number of newly issued ordinary shares of Pubco valued at $10.00 per share. In the event that MKD BVI holds less than 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of MKD Taiwan at the Closing Date, the number of ordinary shares of Pubco to be issued to the shareholders of MKD BVI shall be proportionately reduced.

On the Closing Date, the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger, as a result of which the Company will continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco. In connection with the SPAC Merger, every issued and outstanding unit of the Company shall separate into each unit’s individual components, consisting of one share of Class A common stock, one warrant and one right, and all units shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. In addition, each of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company will be converted into an equivalent amount of Pubco’s securities, as follows:

| ● | Each share of the Class A common stock of the Company will be converted automatically into one ordinary share of Pubco;
| ● | Each right to acquire one-sixth of one share of Class A common stock of the Company will be converted automatically into one right to acquire one-sixth of one ordinary share of Pubco, except that any fractional share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole share; and
| ● | Each warrant entitled to purchase one (1) share of Class A Common stock of the Company at a price of $11.50 per whole share will be converted automatically into one warrant to purchase one (1) ordinary share of Pubco at a price of $11.50 per whole share.

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that Pubco will, immediately after the Closing, have a board of directors composed of seven (7) persons, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate five (5) directors and with Cetus Sponsor LLC having the right to designate two (2) directors.

The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”).

As a condition for MKD BVI to make the First MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 575,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor.

On November 19, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Third Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from November 3, 2023 to February 1, 2024.

In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused four additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $200,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for four additional one month periods, until June 3, 2024. These deposits were made in respect of a loan to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”).

(a) | Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares issued and outstanding, as well as the holders of the Placement Units and any units our sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans or extension loans made to the Company (and all underlying securities), are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement that was signed at the time of our Initial Public offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to our Class A common stock). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which the Founder Shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Placement Units and units issued to our sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans and extension loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the company consummates a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

(b) | Underwriting Agreement

At the IPO date, the Company granted EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, the representative of the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the offering to purchase up to 750,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On February 1, 2023, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase 750,000 units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,500,000 (see Note 3), and the closing occurred simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering on February 3, 2023.

The underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $862,500. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of three percent (3.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $1,725,000 upon closing of the Business Combination. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

In addition, in conjunction with the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued to the underwriter 57,500 shares of Class A common stock (the “Representative Shares”) upon the closing of the IPO on February 3, 2023. The Company estimates the fair value of Representative Shares to be $137,448 in total, or $2.39 per Representative Share. The Company accounted for the estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as an offering cost of the IPO and allocated such cost against temporary equity for the amount allocated to the redeemable shares and to equity for the allocable portion relating to the warrants and rights.

The holders of the Representative Shares agreed (a) that they will not transfer, assign or sell any such shares without the Company’s prior consent until the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) to waive their redemption rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (iii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity

Class A Common Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 50,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. On June 10, 2022, our sponsor subscribed to purchase 1,725,000 shares of our Class A common stock (up to 225,000 shares of which were subject to forfeiture) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, (the “founder shares”). The founder shares that were issued to our sponsor were originally issued as shares of our Class B common stock, but on August 31, 2022 such shares were converted at the election of our sponsor into shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. On December 30, 2022, our sponsor surrendered to us for cancellation 287,500 shares of our Class A common stock for no consideration, resulting in our sponsor owning 1,437,500 shares of our Class A common stock, of which up to 187,500 were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised. As the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full on February 1, 2023, the forfeiture provisions lapsed for 187,500 founder shares.

As of March 31, 2024 there were 1,781,875 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, including 57,500 Representative Shares issued to the underwriter, and excluding 2,058,934 shares subject to possible redemption.

Class B Common Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 4,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. The Company issued an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. Class B common stock is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (A) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof and (B) automatically at the time of our initial business combination. On August 31, 2022, the Sponsor converted its shares of Class B common stock into 1,725,000 shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Preferred Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Warrants — The Public Warrants will become exercisable commencing on the later of 12 months from the effective date of the Company’s registration statement for the IPO or the date of the consummation of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity (Continued)

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

| ● | in whole and not in part;
| ● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
| ● | at any time after the warrants become exercisable,
| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder;
| ● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing at any time after the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and
| ● | if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the Class A common stock underlying such warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A common stock or equity-linked securities, for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the completion of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Placement Warrants, as well as any warrants underlying additional units the Company issues to the Sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Placement Warrants will be entitled to registration rights, and the Placement Warrants (including the common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, except to permitted transferees

Rights-Each holder of a Right will automatically receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share of Class A common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Rights in order to receive his, her, or its additional Class A common stock upon consummation of an initial business combination. The Class A common stock issuable upon exchange of the Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, and the Company liquidates the funds held in the trust account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from our assets held outside of the trust account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless.

Note 9 - Subsequent events

On April 24, 2024, the Company, EF Hutton (“EFH”), MKD Taiwan, MKD BVI and MKDWELL Tech Inc., entered into a Satisfaction and Discharge of Indebtedness Pursuant to Underwriting Agreement Dated January 31, 2023 (the “Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, EFH waived $862,500 of the $1,725,000 cash deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”) that would otherwise be immediately due and payable to it pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated January 31, 2023 by and between the Company and EFH upon the closing of the Business Combination, accepting in lieu thereof (i) a one-time cash payment of $862,500 on or before the closing of the Business Combination and (ii) the issuance of 115,000 ordinary shares of PubCo at $10.00 per share on or before the closing of the Business Combination (the “Ordinary Shares”).

The Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement also provides that, within sixty (60) days of the closing of the Business Combination, the Company, the MKD Parties or their successors-in-interest shall cause the Ordinary Shares issued to EFH pursuant to the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

On April 30, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement executed and delivered a Fifth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the “Outside Date”, as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, from April 30, 2024 to June 30, 2024.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, since March 31, 2024, the Sponsor has caused two additional deposits, each in the amount of $50,000, for an aggregate of $100,000, to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for two additional one month periods, until June 3, 2024.

Management evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited financial statements were issued and determined that except for the events above, there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to the disclosures in the unaudited financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the period from June 7, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2022, 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 the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the period from June 7, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise 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 Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’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 the Company 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. The Company 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 Company’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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on June 7, 2022. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through December 31, 2023, are related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO” as defined below in Note 3). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company is identifying a target company for a Business Combination and the proposed acquisition of MKDWELL Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“MKD BVI”) (see Note 6).

The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is Cetus Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on January 31, 2023. On February 3, 2023, the Company consummated the IPO of 5,750,000 units (the “Public Units’), including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Units granted to the underwriters. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with the Sponsor of 286,875 units (the “Private Units” as described in Note 4), generating total proceeds of $2,868,750, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to the Private Units at $10.00 per Unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), one redeemable warrant entitling its holder to purchase one Share at a price of $11.50 per Share, and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination.

Transaction costs amounted to $3,346,850, consisting of $862,500 of underwriting fees, $1,725,000 of deferred underwriting fees that will be payable only upon completion of a Business Combination, $137,448 representing the fair value of the Representative Shares (defined below), and $621,902 of other offering costs.

In addition, in conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued to the underwriter 57,500 shares of Class A common stock for nominal consideration (the “Representative Shares”). The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under ASC 718, Stock compensation, is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $137,448.

Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement on February 3, 2023, a total of $58,506,250 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. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial Business Combination and the liquidation due to the Company’s failure to complete a Business Combination within the applicable period of time. 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 stockholders. In addition, interest income earned on the funds in the Trust Account may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by the Company may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net proceeds of the IPO and private placement not held in the Trust Account.

CETUS CAPITAL ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the Company’s initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the funds in the Trust account (excluding any deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80% test, at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial Business Combination, although the Company may structure a Business Combination with one or more target businesses whose fair market value significantly exceeds 80% of the trust account balance. If the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, it will not be required to satisfy the 80% test. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction 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.

The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.175 per Public 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 franchise and income tax obligations). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) (the “Initial Stockholders”) and the underwriters have agreed (a) to vote their Founder Shares, Private Shares (as defined in Note 4), and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares (including the Founder Shares) in connection with a stockholder vote to approve, or sell the shares to the Company in any tender offer in connection with, a proposed Business Combination.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Shares, and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company will have until nine months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”) (subject to three three-month extensions of time, as set forth in the Company’s registration statement). If the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate its initial Business Combination within nine months, it may, by resolution of our board of directors, if requested by our Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination by three additional periods of three months each (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a business combination), by depositing into the trust account, with respect to each such three month extension, $575,000 ($0.10 per unit) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each extension.

On November 3, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an extension of additional three (3) months from November 2, 2023 to February 2, 2024 for the completion of a business combination.

On January 31, 2024, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) month extensions to August 3, 2024.

NOTE 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) 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 (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less certain amount of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the IPO, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 7) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.175.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (excluding the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) 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 similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.175 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 $10.175 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case 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 IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

(a) | Liquidity and Capital Resources and Going Concern Consideration

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $320,971 in cash and working capital deficit of $1,211,119. The Company’s 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 through up to $300,000 in loans available from our sponsor under an unsecured promissory note. On February 3, 2023, the total principal amount of $216,837 was converted into part of the subscription of $2,868,750 private placement at a price of $10.00 per unit. The promissory note was cancelled and no amounts were then owed under the note. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(b) | Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including any variants thereof, on the industry 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/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, 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 this uncertainty.

(c) | Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

At this time, it has been determined that none of the IR Act tax provisions have an impact to the Company’s fiscal 2023 tax provision. The Company will continue to monitor for updates to the Company’s business along with guidance issued with respect to the IR Act to determine whether any adjustments are needed to the Company’s tax provision in future periods.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(b) | 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 auditor 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.

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.

(c) | Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 revenues and 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.

(d) | 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 cash of $320,971 as of December 31, 2023 and $20,000 as of December 31, 2022. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

(e) | Cash Held in Trust Account

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, $60,158,872 and $nil of the assets in the Trust Account were held in cash, respectively.

(f) | Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO. As of February 3, 2023, offering costs totaled $3,346,850. This amount consisted of $862,500 of underwriting commissions, $1,725,000 of deferred underwriting commissions (payable only upon completion of a Business Combination), and $759,350 of other offering costs (which includes $137,448 of representative shares, as described in Note 7). The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company allocates offering costs between public shares, public warrants and public rights based on the estimated fair values of them at the date of issuance. Accordingly, $3,200,091 was allocated to public shares and was charged to temporary equity, and a sum of $146,759 was allocated to public warrants and public rights, and was charged to shareholders’ equity.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(g) | Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of 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 the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties for the period from June 7, 2022 (inception) to December 31, 2023. 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 subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

The provision for income taxes for the year ended of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $255,097 and $nil, respectively.

(h) | Dividends

The Board may from time to time declare, and the Company may pay, dividends (payable in cash, property or shares of the Company’s capital stock) on the Company’s outstanding shares of capital stock, subject to applicable law and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

(i) | Net income (loss) per share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture. Weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 187,500 shares of Class B Common Stock that are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters (see Note 7). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the net income per share was $0.01 and the net loss per share was $0.00 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(j) | Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration 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. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

(k) | Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

(l) | Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

The Public Warrants and Rights (see Note 3) and Placement Warrants (see Note 4) were accounted for as equity instruments as they meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

(m) | Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

| ● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

| ● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

| ● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Representative Shares were valued using the fair value of the Class A common stock, adjusted for the probability of consummation of the Business Combination. As such, these are considered to be non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements.

(n) | Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company has made a policy election in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A and recognizes changes in redemption value in additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit in the absence of additional paid-in capital) over an expected 9-month period leading up to a Business Combination. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had recorded accretion of $7,739,022.

For issued warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

At December 31, 2023, the amount of common stock subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds |  | $ | 57,500,000 |
Less: |  |  |  |
Proceeds allocated to public warrants |  |  | (230,575 | )
Proceeds allocated to public rights |  |  | (2,290,800 | )

Plus: |  |  |  |
Accretion of initial carrying value to redemption value |  | $ | 7,739,022 |
Remeasurement of subsequent measurement of common stock subject to redemption value |  |  | 214,342 |

(o) | Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt —Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and free-standing instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company adopted as of inception of the Company. 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 financial statements.

Note 3 - Initial Public Offering

On February 3, 2023, the Company sold 5,750,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Units (including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Units granted to the underwriters), generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, one right (“Public Right”), and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-sixth (1/6) of a share of common stock upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and each six rights entitle the holder thereof to receive one share of common stock at the closing of an initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares. As a result, Public Rights may only be converted in multiples of six. The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the IPO, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Note 4 - Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 286,875 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,868,750 in a private placement, including the conversion of the outstanding promissory note to the Private Units at $10.00 per Unit in the total principal amount of $216,837. The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Placement Warrants are entitled to registration rights, and the Placement Warrants (including the common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants) are not transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, except to permitted transferees. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within nine months (or up to 18 months, as described in more detail in the Company’s IPO registration statement), 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), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

(a) | Founder Shares

On June 10, 2022, the Company approved the acquisition by transfer of an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.014 per share. Such Class B common stock included an aggregate of up to 225,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor will collectively own approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the initial stockholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Placement Units and underlying securities and issuance of representative shares). On August 31, 2022, the Sponsor converted all of its shares of Class B common stock into 1,725,000 shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis (up to 225,000 shares of which were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part). On December 30, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered to the Company for cancellation 287,500 shares of Class A common stock for no consideration, resulting in the Sponsor owning 1,437,500 shares of Class A common stock (up to 187,500 shares of which were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part). The surrender was effective retroactively.

The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Class A common stock (except to certain permitted transferees as disclosed herein) until, with respect to any of the Class A common stock, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, or earlier, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other property.

As of December 31, 2023, 1,437,500 Founder Shares were issued and outstanding and none of the Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option on February 1, 2023.

(b) | Promissory Note — Related Party

On June 10, 2022, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 to be used for payment of the Company’s formation costs together with costs related to the Initial Public Offering. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) May 31, 2023, or (ii) or the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

As of December 31, 2023, the $216,837 that had been borrowed under the promissory note with our sponsor was converted into part of the subscription of $2,868,750 private placement at a price of $10.00 per unit. The promissory note was cancelled and no amounts were owed under the note.

(c) | Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Additionally, if we extend the time available to us to complete our initial business combination, our sponsor, its affiliates or designee will deposit $500,000, or $575,000 if the over-allotment is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit in either case), for each such three-month extension, into the trust. If the Company consummates a Business Combination, the Company will repay such working capital loans and extension loan amounts, provided that up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans and up to $1,500,000 of such extension loans may be convertible into units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the placement units. In the event that the Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the trust account would be used for such repayment.

As of December 31, 2023, working loans from related parties were $173,509, which consisted of a) interest-free loan of $134,509 provided by Awinner Limited, which was 100% owned by Chung-Yi Sun, Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and b) interest-free loan of $39,000 provided by Cetus Sponsor LLC, which was 100% owned by Chung-Yi Sun. These loans were due on demand.

(d) | Extension Loan

Following the approval by the Board of Directors of an extension of additional three (3) months from November 2, 2023 to February 2, 2024 for the completion of a business combination (the “Extension”), on October 31, 2023, the Sponsor deposited an aggregate of $575,000 into the Company’s trust account. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to the Company (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”).

On December 14, 2023, the Company, the Sponsor, the members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton LLC executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, the Company, the Sponsor and EF Hutton LLC, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of the common stock of the Company held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the business combination deadline of the Company, including but not limited to those shares of the common stock of the Company pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

As of December 31, 2023, Extension Loan provided by the Sponsor amounted to $575,000.

Note 6 - Business Combination Agreement

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan corporation (the “MKD Taiwan”), MKD BVI, and Ming-Chia Huang, in his capacity as the representative of the shareholders of MKD Taiwan (the “Shareholders’ Representative”).

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates, among other things, that: (A) the Shareholders’ Representative will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company (“Pubco”) for the purpose of serving as the public listed company whose shares shall be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which company shall initially be owned by the Shareholders’ Representative; (B) Pubco will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub 1”) for the sole purpose of merging with and into MKD BVI (the “Acquisition Merger”), with MKD BVI being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; (C) Pubco will incorporate, on or prior to August 20, 2023, a British Virgin Islands business company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub 2”) for the sole purpose of the merger of The Company with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “SPAC Merger”), in which The Company will be the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco; (D) MKD BVI and Merger Sub 1 will effect the Acquisition Merger; and (E) the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger.

The Acquisition Merger, the SPAC Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”.

The aggregate consideration to be paid to the shareholders of MKD BVI for the Acquisition Merger is US$230 million (less the amount of Closing Company Debt plus the amount of Closing Company Cash), payable on the Closing Date in the form of a number of newly issued ordinary shares of Pubco valued at $10.00 per share. In the event that MKD BVI holds less than 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of MKD Taiwan at the Closing Date, the number of ordinary shares of Pubco to be issued to the shareholders of MKD BVI shall be proportionately reduced.

On the Closing Date, the Company and Merger Sub 2 will effect the SPAC Merger, as a result of which the Company will continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco. In connection with the SPAC Merger, every issued and outstanding unit of the Company shall separate into each unit’s individual components, consisting of one share of Class A common stock, one warrant and one right, and all units shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. In addition, each of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company will be converted into an equivalent amount of Pubco’s securities, as follows:

| ● | Each share of the Class A common stock of the Company will be converted automatically into one ordinary share of Pubco;
| ● | Each right to acquire one-sixth of one share of Class A common stock of the Company will be converted automatically into one right to acquire one-sixth of one ordinary share of Pubco, except that any fractional share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole share; and
| ● | Each warrant entitled to purchase one (1) share of Class A Common stock of the Company at a price of $11.50 per whole share will be converted automatically into one warrant to purchase one (1) ordinary share of Pubco at a price of $11.50 per whole share.

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that Pubco will, immediately after the Closing, have a board of directors composed of seven (7) persons, with MKD Taiwan having the right to designate five (5) directors and with Cetus Sponsor LLC having the right to designate two (2) directors.

Note 6 - Business Combination Agreement (Continued)

On July 31, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a First Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which (A) MKDWELL Tech Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Pubco thereunder and (B) the parties agreed to extend the date by which Pubco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 must execute an addendum to become parties to the Business Combination Agreement from July 31, 2023 to August 20, 2023.

On August 10, 2023, MKDMerger1 Inc. and MKDMerger2 Inc. each executed and delivered a Second Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which (A) MKDMerger1 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 1 thereunder and (B) MKDMerger2 Inc. agreed to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement and to comply with the terms applicable to Merger Sub 2 thereunder.

On October 31, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $575,000 into the Trust Account in connection with the extension of the Business Combination Period from November 3, 2023 to February 3, 2024. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to the Company (the “Extension Loan”), which Extension Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor (the “Extension Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Extension Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “First MKD Loan”). The First MKD Loan is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI containing substantially the same terms as the Extension Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the First MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 575,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor.

On November 19, 2023, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Third Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from November 3, 2023 to February 1, 2024.

On December 14, 2023, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor, the members of the Cetus Board (the “Insiders”) and EF Hutton executed and delivered a Letter of Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), agreeing that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Insider Letter among the Insiders, Cetus Capital, the Sponsor and EF Hutton, the Sponsor may pledge as security and/or transfer any shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor in connection with the obtaining of loans towards payment of the fees for the extension of the Business Combination Period, including but not limited to those shares of Cetus Common Stock pledged in connection with the MKD Loan.

Note 7 - Commitments and Contingency

(a) | Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares issued and outstanding, as well as the holders of the Placement Units and any units our sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans or extension loans made to the Company (and all underlying securities), are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement that was signed at the time of our Initial Public offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to our Class A common stock). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which the Founder Shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Placement Units and units issued to our sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans and extension loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the company consummates a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

(b) | Underwriting Agreement

At the IPO date, the Company granted EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, the representative of the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the offering to purchase up to 750,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On February 1, 2023, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase 750,000 units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,500,000 (see Note 3), and the closing occurred simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering on February 3, 2023.

The underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $862,500. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of three percent (3.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $1,725,000 upon closing of the Business Combination. The deferred fee will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

In addition, in conjunction with the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued to the underwriter 57,500 shares of Class A common stock (the “Representative Shares”) upon the closing of the IPO on February 3, 2023. The Company estimates the fair value of Representative Shares to be $137,448 in total, or $2.39 per Representative Share. The Company accounted for the estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as an offering cost of the IPO and allocated such cost against temporary equity for the amount allocated to the redeemable shares and to equity for the allocable portion relating to the warrants and rights.

The holders of the Representative Shares agreed (a) that they will not transfer, assign or sell any such shares without the Company’s prior consent until the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) to waive their redemption rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (iii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

(c) | Right of First Refusal

For a period beginning on the closing of the IPO and ending 24 months from the closing of a business combination, we have granted EF Hutton a right of first refusal to act as lead-left book running manager and lead left manager for any and all future private or public equity, convertible and debt offerings during such period. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(3)(A)(i), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity

Class A Common Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 50,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. On June 10, 2022, our sponsor subscribed to purchase 1,725,000 shares of our Class A common stock (up to 225,000 shares of which were subject to forfeiture) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, (the “founder shares”). The founder shares that were issued to our sponsor were originally issued as shares of our Class B common stock, but on August 31, 2022 such shares were converted at the election of our sponsor into shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. On December 30, 2022, our sponsor surrendered to us for cancellation 287,500 shares of our Class A common stock for no consideration, resulting in our sponsor owning 1,437,500 shares of our Class A common stock, of which up to 187,500 were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised. As the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full on February 1, 2023, the forfeiture provisions lapsed for 187,500 founder shares.

As of December 31, 2023, there were 1,781,875 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, including 57,500 Representative Shares issued to the underwriter, and excluding 5,750,000 shares subject to possible redemption. As of December 31, 2022, there were 1,437,500 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding.

Class B Common Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 4,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. The Company issued an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. Class B common stock is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (A) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof and (B) automatically at the time of our initial business combination. On August 31, 2022, the Sponsor converted its shares of Class B common stock into 1,725,000 shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Preferred Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Warrants — The Public Warrants will become exercisable commencing on the later of 12 months from the effective date of the Company’s registration statement for the IPO or the date of the consummation of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity (Continued)

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

| ● | in whole and not in part;
| ● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
| ● | at any time after the warrants become exercisable,
| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder;
| ● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing at any time after the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and
| ● | if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the Class A common stock underlying such warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A common stock or equity-linked securities, for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the completion of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Placement Warrants, as well as any warrants underlying additional units the Company issues to the Sponsor, officers, directors, initial stockholders or their affiliates in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Placement Warrants will be entitled to registration rights, and the Placement Warrants (including the common shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, except to permitted transferees

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity (Continued)

Rights-Each holder of a Right will automatically receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share of Class A common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Rights in order to receive his, her, or its additional Class A common stock upon consummation of an initial business combination. The Class A common stock issuable upon exchange of the Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, and the Company liquidates the funds held in the trust account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from our assets held outside of the trust account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless.

Note 9 - Subsequent events

On January 31, 2024, the Company held the Extension Meeting, at which the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from February 3, 2024 up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 3, 2024, provided that an additional amount equal to the lesser of $0.03 per outstanding public share and $50,000 for each month extended is deposited into the trust account, or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the “2024 Extension”). The Company implemented the 2024 Extension by (A) filing the Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 2, 2024 and (B) entering into an Amendment No. 1 of the Trust Agreement that reflects the 2024 Extension. In connection with the Extension Meeting, an aggregate of 3,691,066 Public Shares were redeemed, as a result of which redemptions $38,792,466 was removed from the Trust Account.

In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Sponsor has caused an aggregate of $50,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the Business Combination Period for an additional one month, until March 3, 2024. This deposit was made in respect of a loan to Cetus Capital in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 (the “Sponsor Loan”), which Sponsor Loan is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued by Cetus Capital to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Note”). The funds that were used by the Sponsor to make the Sponsor Loan were provided by MKD BVI (the loan made by MKD BVI to the Sponsor being referred to herein as the “Second MKD Loan”). The Second MKD Loan is evidenced by a note issued by the Sponsor to MKD BVI in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000 containing substantially the same terms as the Sponsor Note. As a condition for MKD BVI to make the Second MKD Loan to the Sponsor, the Sponsor granted to MKD BVI a security interest in 300,000 of the shares of Cetus Common Stock held by the Sponsor (the “Pledged Shares”). In addition, the Sponsor and Cetus Capital entered into a Stock Pledge Agreement with respect to the pledge of the Pledged Shares.

On February 1, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a Fourth Addendum to the Business Combination Agreement to extend the Termination Date from February 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024.

Management evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued and determined that except for the events above, there have been no other events that have occurred that would require adjustments to the disclosures in the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

MKDWELL Limited

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MKDWELL Limited (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, change in equity and cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2023, 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 the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise 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 2. The consolidated 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 Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’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 the Company 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. The Company 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 Company’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.

The Taiwan Reorganization would be accounted for as a recapitalization transaction. This determination was primarily based on the transaction which essentially results in the formation of a holding company, and no goodwill or other intangible assets would be recorded.

2. | GOING CONCERN

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities during the normal course of operations. The Company incurred net losses of US$1,217,086 and US$2,068,060 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities were US$129,863 and US$1,323,384 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s accumulated deficits were US$11,213,083, with a working capital deficit of US$3,329,949. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if the Company will be able to reduce or eliminate its net losses for the foreseeable future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has historically depended on financing from bank, related parties and third-party investors to support its operations. The Company’s future operations are dependent upon equity or debt financing and its ability to generate profits through operations at an indeterminate time in the future. The Company cannot assure that it will be successful in completing an equity or debt financing or in achieving or maintaining profitability in the near term. The Company’s financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) | Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) to reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below.

(b) | Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation. All intercompany transactions and balances among the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

(c) | Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates include, but not limited to, the allowance for credit loss, lower of cost or net realizable value of inventory, useful lives of long-lived assets, impairment of long-lived assets and valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and as such, differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

(d) | Functional Currency and Foreign Currency Translation

The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar (“US$”). The Company’s operating subsidiaries in Taiwan, China and mainland China use their respective currencies New Taiwan dollar (“NT$”) and Renminbi (“RMB”) as their functional currencies.

The financial statements of MKD BVI and its subsidiaries, other than subsidiaries with functional currency of US$, are translated into US$ using the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and average exchange rate for the year for income and expense items. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. The equity denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution.

Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to Period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income included in consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in preparing the consolidated financial statements:

|  | December 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2023
|  | Year-end spot rate |  | Average rate |  | Year-end spot rate |  | Average rate
US$ against RMB |  | US$1=RMB6.8972 |  | US$1=RMB6.7290 |  | US$1=RMB7.0978 |  | US$1=RMB7.0803
US$ against NT$ |  | US$1=NT$30.7300 |  | US$1=NT$29.7963 |  | US$1=NT$30.6200 |  | US$1=NT$31.1525

(e) | Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and cash held in banks, which are highly liquid and are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.

(f) | Accounts Receivable, net

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 326 -“Financial Instruments - Credit losses” (“ASC 326”) using the modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit. Upon adoption, the Company changed its impairment model to utilize a current expected credit losses model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The Company had not recorded an adjustment to the opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2023 due to immaterial cumulative impact of adopting ASC 326.

Account receivables are stated net of provision of credit losses. The Company has developed a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model based on historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of its customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from customers. The Company considers historical collection rates, current financial status, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating for current expected credit losses.

(g) | Inventories, net

Inventories, primarily consisting of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with net realized value represented by estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of disposal and transportation. Cost of inventory is determined using the monthly weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventory to the estimated net realizable value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged products, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand.

(h) | Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any recorded impairment. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line approach over the estimated economic useful lives of the assets as follows:

Category |  | Estimated useful lives
Land use right |  | 50 years
Software |  | 3 years

(i) | Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any, and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its intended use. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Category |  | Estimated useful lives
Electronic equipment |  | 3 years
Machinery and equipment |  | 3-10 years
Vehicle |  | 4 years
Office equipment |  | 3-5 years
Building |  | 20 years

Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expenses as incurred, whereas the cost of renewals and betterment that extends the useful lives of property, plant and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Retirements, sales and disposals of assets are recorded by removing the costs, accumulated depreciation and impairment with any resulting gain or loss recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

(j) | Real estate properties for lease, net

Real estate properties for lease, net includes the plant and land use right, which are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, accumulated amortization and impairment, if any, and depreciated and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives with an estimated residual value of the assets as follows:

Category |  | Estimated useful lives
Plant |  | 20 years
Land use right |  | 50 years

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expenses as incurred. Major additions and improvements to the real estate properties held for lease are capitalized.

In accordance with ASC 360, real estate properties held for lease is subject to valuation adjustments when the carrying amount exceeds fair value. An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying amount of the assets is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any impairment for real estate properties held for lease.

(k) | Leases

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.

Financing lease and operating lease as Lessee

The Company classifies a lease as a financing lease at lease commencement when the lease meets any one of the criteria:

a. The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term.

b. The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise.

c. The lease term is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset.

d. The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all the fair value of the underlying asset.

e. The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term.

When none of the criteria are met, the Company classifies a lease as an operating lease.

For both operating and financing leases, the Company records a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use (ROU) asset at lease commencement. Lease terms are based on the non-cancellable term of the lease and may contain options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Lease liabilities represent the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at lease commencement.

The Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate for its leases at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments when the implicit rate is not readily determinable in the lease. In estimating its incremental borrowing rate, the Company considers its credit rating and publicly available data of borrowing rates for loans of similar amount, currency and term as the lease.

Operating leases are presented as “operating lease right-of-use assets, net” and “operating lease liabilities”. Lease liabilities that become due within one year of the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. At lease commencement, right-of-use assets represent the right to use underlying assets for their respective lease terms and are recognized at amounts equal to the lease liabilities adjusted for any lease payments made prior to the lease commencement date, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs incurred by the Company.

After lease commencement, operating lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments using the discount rate determined at lease commencement. Right-of-use assets are measured at the amount of the lease liabilities and further adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments, the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs and impairment of the ROU assets, if any. Operating lease expense is recognized as a single cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Financing leases are presented as “financing lease right-of-use assets, net” and “financing lease liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. Lease liabilities that become due within one year of the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. Financing lease ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date. After initial measurement, the carrying value of financing lease liabilities are increased to reflect interest at a constant rate and reduced to reflect any lease payments made during the period.

(k) | Leases – Continued

The Company has made an accounting policy election to exempt leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from being recognized on the balance sheet. Lease expense for the short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as incurred.

Sale and leaseback transactions as Lessee

When the Company enters into sale and leaseback transactions as a lessee, it applies the requirements in ASC 606 by assessing whether a contract exists and whether it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of an asset when determining whether the transfer of an asset shall be accounted for as a sale of the asset. If the Company transfers the control of an asset to the buyer-lessor, it accounts for the transfer of the asset as a sale and recognizes a corresponding gain or loss on disposal. The subsequent leaseback of the asset is accounted for in accordance with ASC842 in the same manner as any other lease. If the Company does not transfer the control of an asset to the buyer-lessor, the failed sale-leaseback transaction is accounted for as a financing. The Company does not derecognize the transferred asset and accounts for proceeds received as borrowings for which the current portion is included in “Other current liabilities” and the non-current portion is included in “Other non-current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Operating leases as Lessor

The Company leases certain plant space to third parties and classifies a lease as either a direct financing lease or an operating lease when none of the criteria specified as (a) to (e) in the “Financing lease and operating lease as Lessee” policy at lease commencement is met.

For operating leases, the Company recognized rental income over the non-cancellable lease term on a straight-line basis and is included in revenue in the statement of profit and loss due to its operating nature. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same basis on the rental income. The Company does not have any sales-type or direct financing leases for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations.

(l) | Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company would recognize an impairment loss, which is the excess of carrying amount over the fair value of the assets, using the expected future discounted cash flows. No impairments of long-lived assets were recognized as of December 31, 2022 and 2023.

(m) | Fair value measurement

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

(m) | Fair value measurement – Continued

Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of inputs are:

| ● | Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
| ● | Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
| ● | Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

Accounting guidance also describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

Financial assets and liabilities of the Company primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, other receivables included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, short-term and long-term bank borrowings, lease liabilities, accounts payable, amounts due to/due from related parties, long-term borrowings, other payables included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the carrying values of these financial instruments, except for other non-current assets, non-current portion of long-term banks borrowings, and non-current portion of lease liabilities, approximated their respective fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company’s non-financial assets, such as property, plant and equipment, real estate property for lease and ROU assets would be measured at fair value only if they were determined to be impaired.

(n) | Commitments and contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to commitments and contingencies, including capital commitments, legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business that relate to a wide range of matters, such as government investigations and tax matters. The Company recognizes liability for such contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Company may consider many factors in making these assessments on liability for contingencies, including historical and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter.

(o) | Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenues pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). In accordance with ASC 606, revenues from contracts with customers are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, reduced by value added tax (“VAT”). To achieve the core principle of this standard, the Company applies the following five steps:

| (i) | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer
| (ii) | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
| (iii) | Determination of the transaction price
| (iv) | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
| (v) | Recognition of the revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company’s revenues are generated through (i) sales of manufactured electronic products, (ii) commissioned processing service, (iii) rental income and (iv) others. Each of our significant performance obligations and our application of ASC 606 to our significant revenue arrangements are discussed in further detail below.

Sales of manufactured electronic products

The Company designs and manufactures industrial embedded systems and automotive electronics. The Company enters framework sales contract with customers usually for one year. The framework sales contracts provide the general payment and delivery terms, and specific orders shall be placed to the Company with determined unit price and purchase volume. Payment terms for sales of manufactured electronic products are generally set at one month after the consideration becomes due and payable.

Under the specific order, the Company identifies only one performance obligation of transferring the agreed-upon products. Shipping and handling activities are considered to be fulfillment activities rather than promised services and are not, therefore, considered to be separate performance obligations. The Company’s sales terms provide no right of return outside of a standard quality policy and returns are generally not significant. There was no variable consideration nor financing component. The revenue from sales of manufactured electronic products is recognized at a point in time upon the customer’s acceptance of products at the amount of the determined purchase price on the orders.

Commissioned processing service

The Company provides commissioned processing services to customers and enters into framework contracts with them usually for one year. Customers provide the material and entrust the Company to the production and processing according to the agreed-costed BOM. Specific orders for commissioned processing shall be placed to the Company, terms in commissioned processing contracts and orders are similar with product sales contracts. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time upon the customer’s acceptance of products with the amount of the determined processing charges on the orders.

Rental income

The Company owns a building and partially leases it out. The Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, and the real estate property rental income falls within the scope of ASC Topic 842, which is excluded from the scope of ASC Topic 606. The leases are classified as operating leases and the rental income is recognized over the leased terms on a straight-line basis.

Others

Other revenue represents the revenue generated from various types of services, mainly consists of electricity supply service, technical support services and other revenues.

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023:

|  | For the years ended December 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |

Sales of manufactured electronic products |  | $ | 1,543,397 |  |  | $ | 2,329,491 |
Commissioned processing service |  |  | 866,993 |  |  |  | 942,626 |
Rental income |  |  | 357,338 |  |  |  | 267,591 |
Others |  |  | 385,758 |  |  |  | 131,014 |
Total |  | $ | 3,153,486 |  |  | $ | 3,670,722 |

Contract Balances

When either party to a revenue contract has performed, the Company presents the contract in the consolidated balance sheet as a contract asset or a contract liability, depending on the relationship between the Company’s performance and the customer’s payment. The Company merely incurs costs to obtain a contract with a customer. The Company presents any unconditional rights to consideration separately as a receivable. The Company has no contract assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

The Company’s contract liabilities primarily relate to unsatisfied performance obligations when payment has been received from customers before the Company’s products are delivered and are recorded as “advance from customers” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Advance from customers amounted to US$189,193 and US$304,489 as of December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 that was previously included in the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2022 and 2023 were US$91,467 and US$44,169, respectively.

(t) | Other income, net

Other income primarily consists of compensation income, government grants and foreign currency exchange gain (loss). Government grants represent cash subsidies received from the PRC government. Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attach to it and the grant will be received. Government grants for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs or obligation is recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss when the grant becomes receivable.

(u) | Employee benefits

(v) | Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement 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 including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company’s operating subsidiaries in PRC are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than US$14,089 (RMB 100,000). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

The Company did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its provision for income taxes line of its consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The Company does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

(w) | Value added tax (“VAT”)

The Company is subject to VAT and related surcharges on revenue generated from sales of manufactured electronic products, commissioned processing service and rental income. The Company records revenue net of VAT. This VAT may be offset by qualified input VAT paid by the Company to suppliers. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in the line item of other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company incurs VAT related surcharges based on net VAT balance paid.

The VAT rate is 13% for taxpayers selling consumer products for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. For revenue generated from services, the VAT rate is 6% depending on whether the entity is a general tax payer, and related surcharges on revenue generated from providing services. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT, paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. The PRC VAT rate is generally 5% for leasing income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.

(x) | Non-controlling interest

For the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries, a non-controlling interest is recognized to reflect the portion of their equity which is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Consolidated net loss on the consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive loss includes the net loss attributable to non-controlling interests. The cumulative results of operations attributable to non-controlling interests, are recorded as non-controlling interests in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(y) | Net loss per share

In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the calculation of diluted net loss per share, the weighted average number of ordinary shares is adjusted by the effect of dilutive potential ordinary shares, including unvested restricted shares, ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding share options using the treasury stock method. The effect mentioned above is not included in the calculation of the diluted income per share when inclusion of such effect would be anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, there were no dilution impact.

(z) | Segment reporting

The Company uses the management approach in determining its operating segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) identified as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, relies upon the consolidated results of operations as a whole when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company. As a result of the assessment made by CODM, the Company has only one reportable segment. The Company does not distinguish between markets or segments for the purpose of internal reporting. As the Company’s long-lived assets are substantially located in the PRC, no geographical segments are presented.

(aa) | Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), which amends or supersedes various SEC paragraphs within the Codification to conform to past SEC announcements and guidance issued by the SEC. The ASU does not provide any new guidance so there is no transition or effective date associated with it. This ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.” This ASU incorporates certain U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) disclosure requirements into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in the ASU are expected to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Codification Topics, allow users to compare entities subject more easily to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements and for entities required to file or furnish financial statements with or to the SEC in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective for any entity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2023-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision mark (CODM), an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition, all annual disclosures required by FASB ASU Topic 280 in interim periods as well, and the title and position of the CODM and how the CODM uses the reported measures. Additionally, this ASU requires that at least one of the reported segment profit and loss measures should be the measure that is most consistent with the measurement principles used in an entity’s consolidated financial statements. Lastly, this ASU requires public business entities with a single reportable segment to provide all disclosures required by these amendments in this ASU and all 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. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2023-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides guidance on the requirements such as the requirement that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. For public business entities (PBEs), the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities (non-PBEs), the requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The ASU should be applied prospectively. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent standards that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

MKDWELL Tech Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MKDWELL Tech Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholder’s deficit and cash flows for the period from July 25, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023 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 the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from July 25, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise 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 2. The consolidated 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 Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 the Company 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit 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 Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In U.S. dollars, except for share and per share data, or otherwise noted)

1. | Description of Organization and Business Operations

MKDWELL Tech Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on July 25, 2023. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, MKDMerger1 Inc., a BVI company incorporated on August 1, 2023, and MKDMerger2 Inc., a BVI company incorporated on August 1, 2023, (collectively, the “Group”), were formed for the purpose of effecting a merger between Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Cetus Capital”), MKDWELL Limited (“MKD BVI”), MKDWELL Technology Inc. (“MKD Taiwan”) and certain other affiliated entities through a series of transactions (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the definitive agreement entered into on June 20, 2023.

2. | Going concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities during the normal course of operations. The Company incurred net losses of US$7,680 for the period from July 25, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, with a working capital deficit of US$14,675 (excluding deferred offering costs). The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if the Company will be able to reduce or eliminate its net losses for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination as discussed in Notes 1. The Company’s financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. | Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) | Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) to reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below.

(b) | Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation. All intercompany transactions and balances among the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

(c) | Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and as such, differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

(d) | Deferred offering costs

Deferred offering costs consist of capitalized underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Business Combination and that will be charged to stockholder’s deficit upon the completion of the Business Combination. Should the Business Combination prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses incurred, will be charged to operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $6,995 in capitalized deferred offering costs.

(e) | Fair value measurement

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

4. | Related party transactions

For the period from July 25, 2023 (inception) through December 31, 2023, the Company’s related party, MKD BVI, an affiliate company, made several payments on behalf of the Group.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE IV, none of MKD BVI, the Company, SPAC, Merger Sub 1, the Shareholders’ Representative or the Surviving Company shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly paid in good faith to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Surrender of Certificates. All securities issued upon the surrender of MKD BVI Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities, provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of such MKD BVI Ordinary Shares shall also apply to the Pubco Ordinary Shares so issued in exchange therefor.

23

Section 8.01 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Party shall bear their own cost of all Transfer Taxes, if any, including costs arising out of the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to such Transfer Taxes in accordance with appliable Law. All necessary Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed by the party required to do so pursuant to applicable Law (and the non-filing party shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith, if requested by the filing party).

Section 8.03 Intended Tax Treatment.

(a) Each of SPAC, the Company, Pubco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 hereby agree and acknowledge that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes the SPAC Merger and the Acquisition Merger are intended to constitute a single exchange transaction under Section 351 of the Code. The Parties hereby agree to file all Tax Returns and other informational returns on a basis consistent with such characterization. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Transactions under Section 351 of the Code or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Closing Date has or may have on such Transactions. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the Transactions, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any Taxes that may arise if the SPAC Merger and the Acquisition Merger do not qualify as exchanges described in Section 351 of the Code. None of SPAC, the Company, Pubco, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2 or their respective Affiliates has taken or will take any action (or fail to take any action), if such action (or failure to act), whether before or after the Effective Time, would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Transactions from qualifying for such intended Tax treatment.

(b) Each of SPAC, the Company, Pubco, Merger Sub 1 Merger Sub 2 and their respective Affiliates shall file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, and shall take no position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise), in each case, unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

Section 8.04 Tax Opinion. In the event the SEC requires a tax opinion regarding the Intended Tax Treatment, SPAC will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Pryor Cashman LLP to deliver such tax opinion. Each party shall use reasonable best efforts to execute and deliver customary Tax representation letters to Pryor Cashman LLP in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Pryor Cashman LLP.

60

Section 8.05 PFIC Reporting. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each taxable year of Pubco for which Pubco reasonably believes that it may be a “passive foreign investment company” within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code (“PFIC”), Pubco shall (1) determine its status as a PFIC, (2) determine the PFIC status of each of its Subsidiaries that at any time during such taxable year was a foreign corporation within the meaning of Section 7701(a) of the Code (the “Non-U.S. Subsidiaries”), and (3) make such PFIC status determinations available to the shareholders of Pubco who were shareholders of SPAC as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. If Pubco determines that it was, or could reasonably be deemed to have been, a PFIC in such taxable year, Pubco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the statements and information (including without limitation, a PFIC Annual Information Statement meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-1(g)) necessary to enable Pubco shareholders who were SPAC shareholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and their direct and/or indirect owners that are United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) to comply with all provisions of the Code with respect to PFICs, including but not limited to making and complying with the requirements of a “Qualified Electing Fund” election pursuant to Section 1295 of the Code or filing a “protective statement” pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-3 with respect to Pubco or any of the Non-U.S. Subsidiaries, as applicable. The covenants contained in this Section 8.05 shall, notwithstanding any provision elsewhere in this Agreement, survive in full force and effect until two (2) years after the end of SPAC’s current taxable year.

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any Company Fundamental Representation, as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent they refer to another date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such other date);

(b) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties set forth in ARTICLE V (other than any Company Fundamental Representation), as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent they refer to another date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such other date);

66

Section 11.03 Limitations; Effect of Investigation. The indemnification provided for in Section 11.02 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Company shall not be liable to the SPAC Indemnitees for indemnification under this Agreement, except in the case of Fraud by the Company, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under this Agreement exceeds $250,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Company shall be liable for all such Losses in excess of the Deductible (but subject to the other limitations contained herein). Except in the case of Fraud by the Company, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Company be liable to the SPAC Indemnitees for Losses in respect of indemnification under this Agreement that exceed $5,000,000.

(b) Notwithstanding the fact that any SPAC Indemnitee may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement in respect of any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no SPAC Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover the amount of any Loss suffered by such SPAC Indemnitee more than once, regardless of whether such Loss may be as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty, obligation or covenant or otherwise. In addition, any liability for indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability, or a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, as applicable.

(c) The determination of the amount of Loss arising from (but not the existence of any inaccuracy in or breach of) any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Company Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

(d) The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company (or the other Company Parties, as applicable), and the SPAC Indemnitee’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the SPAC Indemnitee (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the SPAC Indemnitee or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the SPAC Indemnitee’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as the case may be.

(e) Payments by the Company pursuant to this ARTICLE XI in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the SPAC Indemnitee in respect of any such claim, and each SPAC Indemnitee shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to recover all amounts payable from an insurer or other third party under any such insurance policy or Contract.

67

(f) If the amount to be netted hereunder from any indemnification payment required hereunder is determined after payment by the Company to a SPAC Indemnitee of any amount otherwise required to be paid as indemnification pursuant hereto, the SPAC Indemnitee shall repay, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Company would not have had to pay pursuant hereto had such determination been made at the time of such payment.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no SPAC Indemnitee, nor any of its Affiliates, shall have any right to indemnification under this Agreement with respect to, or based on, Taxes to the extent such Taxes (i) are attributable to any Tax period other than a Tax period (or portion of a Straddle Period) ending on or before the Closing Date other than any such Taxes attributable to a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.15(a), (ii) are due to the unavailability in any Tax periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Closing Date of any net operating losses, credits, or other Tax attributes from a Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date, (iii) result from any transactions or actions taken by SPAC or any of its Affiliates (including without limitation the Company) on the Closing Date after the Closing that are not contemplated by this Agreement, or (iv) were already taken into account in the calculation of Indebtedness as finally determined.

Section 11.04 Third-Party Claims.

(a) If any SPAC Indemnitee receives written notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such SPAC Indemnitee with respect to which the Company is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the SPAC Indemnitee shall give the Company reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the SPAC Indemnitee becomes aware of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such reasonably prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Company of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Company incurs material impairment of material rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by a SPAC Indemnitee shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, to the extent such details are then known, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, to the extent such amount can be reasonably estimated at such time, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the SPAC Indemnitee.

(b) The Company shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to SPAC, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Company’s expense and by the Company’s own counsel, and the SPAC Indemnitee shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of, but shall have the right to participate in, any such Third-Party Claim to the extent that such Third-Party Claim seeks as a material remedy thereunder an injunction or other equitable relief against the SPAC Indemnitee. In the event that the Company assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 11.04(d), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the SPAC Indemnitee. The SPAC Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Company’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the SPAC Indemnitee; provided that if in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the SPAC Indemnitee, (A) there are material legal defenses available to a SPAC Indemnitee that are additional to those available to the Company or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Company and the SPAC Indemnitee that cannot be waived, the Company shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the SPAC Indemnitee in each jurisdiction for which the SPAC Indemnitee reasonably determines different counsel is required, subject to the limitations contained herein.

68

(c) If the Company elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to reasonably promptly notify the SPAC Indemnitee in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the SPAC Indemnitee may, subject to Section 11.04(d), pay, compromise and defend such Third-Party Claim, and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not settle any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the SPAC Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as provided in this Section 11.04(d). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the SPAC Indemnitee and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each SPAC Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Company desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Company shall give written notice to that effect to the SPAC Indemnitee. If the SPAC Indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the SPAC Indemnitee may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim, at its own expense, and in such event, the maximum liability of the Company as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the SPAC Indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Company may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the SPAC Indemnitee has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 11.04(b), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e) The SPAC Indemnitee and the Company shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant books and records, by preserving such books and records and by making employees and representatives available on a mutually convenient basis during normal business hours to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The SPAC Indemnitee and the Company shall use reasonable commercial efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

69

Section 11.05 Direct Claims. Any Action by a SPAC Indemnitee on account of a Loss that does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the SPAC Indemnitee giving the Company reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the SPAC Indemnitee becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Company of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Company incurs material impairment of material rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the SPAC Indemnitee shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, to the extent such amount can be reasonably estimated at such time, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the SPAC Indemnitee. The Company shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The SPAC Indemnitee shall allow the Company and its Representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim, and the SPAC Indemnitee shall assist the Company’s investigation by giving such information and assistance as the Company or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Company does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, then the Company shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the SPAC Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the SPAC Indemnitee on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 11.06 Determination of Loss. Once a Loss required to be paid in cash is agreed to by the Company or adjudicated (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable judgment) to be payable in cash by the Company pursuant to this ARTICLE XI, the Company shall deposit, or cause to be deposited with the applicable SPAC Indemnitee, the amount of such Loss to be satisfied in cash pursuant hereto by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by SPAC in writing. The parties hereto agree that should the Company not make the full cash payment within ten (10) days of such agreement or adjudication, as applicable, any amount payable shall accrue interest from the date of agreement of the Company or adjudication to the date such payment has been made at the Interest Rate.

Section 11.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The parties agree that all indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the aggregate Transaction consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 11.08 Exclusive Remedy. Except as provided in ARTICLE VI or Section 12.07, the indemnification provisions of this ARTICLE XI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the SPAC Indemnitees following the Closing for any and all breaches or alleged breaches by the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements, or any other provision of this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Section 11.08 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 12.07 or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s willful misconduct or Fraud.

ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.01 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which the parties are party constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, except for the Confidentiality Agreement which will remain in full force and effect until the Closing. The parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations, and all parties specifically acknowledge that no party has any special relationship with another party that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length transaction. The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein, made in connection herewith or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) or any claim or cause of action otherwise arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated hereby shall be those remedies available at law or in equity for breach of contract against the parties only (as such contractual remedies have been further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement, including by Section 11.08 if the Closing occurs), and the parties hereby agree that no party shall have any remedies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, or representations or warranties not explicitly set forth in this Agreement, except in the case of willful misconduct or Fraud. All representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are contractual in nature only and subject to the sole and exclusive remedies set forth herein. Further, no Person is asserting the truth of any factual statements contained in any representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement; rather, the parties have agreed that should any representations and warranties of any party prove inaccurate, the other party shall have the specific remedies herein specified as the exclusive remedy therefor, except in the case of willful misconduct or Fraud.

Section 12.02 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt by other than automatic means, whether electronic or otherwise), (b) when sent by email or (c) one (1) Business Day following the day sent by an internationally recognized overnight courier (with written confirmation of receipt), in each case, at the following addresses and email addresses (or to such other address or email address as a party may have specified by notice given to the other parties pursuant to this provision):

Section 12.03 Amendment; Modification and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived if, and only if, such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment or modification, by SPAC and the Shareholders’ Representative, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that after the adoption of this Agreement by the Requisite MKD BVI Shareholder Approval, no amendment shall be made that by Law requires further approval by the MKD BVI Shareholders without obtaining such requisite approval under the BVI Business Companies Act, except to the extent the approval of the MKD BVI Shareholders can be given by the Shareholders’ Representative under applicable Law. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 12.04 Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under it may be directly or indirectly assigned, delegated, sublicensed or transferred by any of the parties, in whole or in part, to any other Person (including any bankruptcy trustee) by operation of law or otherwise, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempted or purported assignment in violation of this Section 12.04 will be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by each of the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and assigns (including, with respect to any trust, any additional or successor trustees of any such trust).

Section 12.05 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities upon any Person other than the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns; provided, however, that the provisions of ARTICLE XI are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Covered Person and each SPAC Covered Person, as applicable, and each such Person’s heirs, legatees, representatives, successors and assigns, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third-party beneficiaries of such sections.

(b) Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue within the State of Delaware (“Delaware Courts”), and any appellate court from any decision thereof, in any Action that may be based upon, arise of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution and delivery or performance of this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of any such Action shall be heard and determined in the Delaware Courts, (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution and delivery or performance of this Agreement in the Delaware Courts, including any objection based on its place of incorporation or domicile, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in any such court and (iv) agrees that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. Each of the parties consents and agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document for any action permitted hereunder may be delivered by registered mail addressed to it at the applicable address set forth in Section 12.02 or in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY FOR ANY DISPUTE BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY THEREOF OR ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NONE OF THE OTHER PARTIES NOR THEIR REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS OR ATTORNEYS HAVE REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTIES WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS OF THIS Section 12.06(c).

73

Section 12.07 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached or threatened to be breached and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such failure to perform or breach. It is accordingly agreed that without posting bond or other undertaking, the parties shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any such action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party will allege, and each party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law. The parties further agree that (a) by seeking any remedy provided for in this Section 12.07, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such party under this Agreement and (b) nothing contained in this Section 12.07 shall require any party to institute any action for (or limit such party’s right to institute any action for) specific performance under this Section 12.07 before exercising any other right under this Agreement. If, prior to the Outside Date, any party brings any Action in accordance with this Agreement to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof against any other party, the Outside Date shall be automatically extended (i) for the period during which such Action is pending, plus ten (10) Business Days or (ii) by such other time period established by the court presiding over such action on good cause shown, as the case may be.

Section 12.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement, and may be delivered by facsimile or other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic or pictorial appearance of a document.

Section 12.09 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is found by a court or other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, (a) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction and (b) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as would be enforceable.

74

Section 12.10 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, all direct and indirect costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne (a) by SPAC, if such expenses are incurred by any SPAC Party, and (b) by the applicable Company Party if expenses are incurred by any Company Party, including the Company Transaction Expenses; provided, that if the Closing shall occur each party’s reasonable and documented costs and expenses will be paid from the capital of Pubco.

Except as expressly provided herein, no Company Shareholder shall directly have the right to exercise any right hereunder, it being understood and agreed that all such rights shall only be permitted to be exercised by the Shareholders’ Representative on behalf of the Company Shareholders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Shareholders’ Representative has full power and authority, on behalf of each Company Shareholder and such Company Shareholder’s successors and assigns, to: (i) interpret the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the documents to be executed and delivered by the Company Shareholders in connection herewith, (ii) execute and deliver and receive deliveries of all agreements, certificates, statements, notices, approvals, extensions, waivers, undertakings, amendments, and other documents required or permitted to be given in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement, (iv) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, assume the defense of Third-Party Claims, prosecute and defend claims for indemnification under ARTICLE XI and comply with orders of courts with respect to such claims, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, (v) give and receive notices and communications, (viii) assert the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Company Shareholders with respect to any communications that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ix) deliver to SPAC any and all Ancillary Agreements executed by the Company Shareholders and deposited with the Shareholders’ Representative, upon the Shareholders’ Representative’s determination that the conditions to Closing have been satisfied or waived and (x) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders’ Representative on behalf of the Company Shareholders in connection with this Agreement.

75

(b) Service by the Shareholders’ Representative shall be without compensation except for the reimbursement by the Company Shareholders of out-of-pocket expenses and indemnification specifically provided herein.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 12.11(a), if the Shareholders’ Representative believes that he or she requires further authorization or advice from any Company Shareholder on any matters concerning this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby, the Shareholders’ Representative will be entitled, but not obligated, to seek such further authorization solely from such Company Shareholder.

(d) From and after the date hereof, but except as expressly provided herein, each of SPAC and the Company is entitled to deal exclusively with the Shareholders’ Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholders’ Representative constitutes a decision of all the Company Shareholders in respect of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Such decision, act, consent or instruction is final, binding and conclusive upon each Company Shareholder, and each of SPAC and the Company shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Company Shareholder by the Shareholders’ Representative, and on any other decision, act, consent or instruction taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Company Shareholder by the Shareholders’ Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholders’ Representative will constitute notice to or from each Company Shareholder.

(e) The Shareholders’ Representative may resign at any time, and may appoint a new Shareholders’ Representative to act in his or her stead, and may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent of the Company Shareholders holding a majority of the Company Ordinary Shares as of the date hereof; provided, however, in no event shall the Shareholders’ Representative be removed without the Company Shareholders holding a majority of the Company Ordinary Shares having first appointed a new Shareholders’ Representative who shall assume such duties immediately upon the removal of the Shareholders’ Representative. In the event of the death, incapacity, or removal of the Shareholders’ Representative, a new Shareholders’ Representative shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of the Company Shareholders holding a majority of the Company Ordinary Shares as of the date hereof and a copy of the written consent or minutes appointing such new Shareholders’ Representative shall be sent to SPAC, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent or the date such notice is received by SPAC; provided that until such notice is received, SPAC and the Company shall be entitled to rely on the decisions and actions of the prior Shareholders’ Representative as described in this Section 12.11.

The Shareholders’ Representative shall hold the Shareholders’ Representative Fund in a segregated bank account and shall not comingle it with any other funds (the “Representative Fund”.

76

(h) The Shareholders’ Representative shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on behalf of any Company Shareholder shall otherwise exist against the Shareholders’ Representative. The Shareholders’ Representative shall not be liable to any Company Shareholder relating to the performance of the Shareholders’ Representative’s duties or exercise of any rights under this Agreement for any errors in judgment, negligence, oversight, breach of duty or otherwise except to the extent it is finally determined in a court of competent jurisdiction by clear and convincing evidence that the actions taken or not taken by the Shareholders’ Representative constituted actual fraud or were taken or not taken in bad faith. The Shareholders’ Representative shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company Shareholders against all losses, including costs of defense, paid or incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or claim to which the Shareholders’ Representative is made a party by reason of the fact that the Shareholders’ Representative was acting as the Shareholders’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Shareholders’ Representative shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder to the extent it is finally determined in a court of competent jurisdiction by clear and convincing evidence that the actions taken or not taken by the Shareholders’ Representative constituted actual fraud or were taken or not taken in bad faith. The Shareholders’ Representative shall be protected in acting upon any notice, statement or certificate believed by the Shareholders’ Representative to be genuine and to have been furnished by the appropriate Person and in acting or refusing to act in good faith on any matter. The Shareholders’ Representative, solely in his capacity as such, shall not be liable to SPAC or any Affiliate of SPAC by reason of this Agreement or the performance of the Shareholders’ Representative’s duties hereunder or otherwise. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Shareholders’ Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.12 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Company Shareholder and the Company acknowledge and agree, both for themselves and their respective Shareholders and Affiliates, that no recourse under, based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any documents or agreements referenced herein may be had by any of them against any Affiliate of SPAC not a party to such document or agreement, any other Person or any such Affiliate’s or other Person’s respective direct or indirect former, current or future, Affiliates, general or limited partners, Shareholders, controlling persons, equityholders, managers, managing companies, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, Representatives, advisers, successors or assigns, actual or prospective financing sources or arrangers, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Law.

77

Section 12.13 Company Disclosure Schedule.

(a) The “Company Disclosure Schedule” means the disclosure schedule delivered by the Company to SPAC in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement (and as the same may be modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof).

(b) It is specifically acknowledged that the Company Disclosure Schedule may expressly provide exceptions to a particular Section of ARTICLE V notwithstanding that the Section does not state “except as set forth in Section ‘__’ of the Company Disclosure Schedule” or words of similar effect.

(c) Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to vary the definition of “Company Material Adverse Effect” or to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material. Unless this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business.

(d) Each Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement and does not constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations, warranties or covenants of any party, except as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Certain matters set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule are included for informational purposes only notwithstanding that, because they do not rise above applicable materiality thresholds or otherwise, they may not be required by the terms of this Agreement to be set forth herein. All attachments to the Company Disclosure Schedule are incorporated by reference into the Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule in which they are referenced.

Section 12.14 No Rescission. Following the Closing, no party shall be entitled to rescind the transactions contemplated hereby by virtue of any failure of any party’s representations and warranties herein to have been true or any failure by any party to perform its obligations hereunder.

Section 12.15 Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of SPAC, filed with the SEC (File No. 333-266363) on February 1, 2023 (the “Prospectus”). Each Company Party acknowledges and agrees and understands that SPAC has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from a private placement occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of SPAC’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by SPAC’s underwriters, the “Public Stockholders”), and SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the express circumstances described in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Company Party hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its representatives that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company Parties nor any of its Representatives does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between SPAC or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and, the Company Parties or any of their Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Trust Account Released Claims”). Each Company Party, on its own behalf and on behalf of its respective Representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that it or any of its respective Representatives may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, or Contracts with SPAC or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of any agreement with SPAC or its Affiliates).

THIS LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of [ ], [ ] by and between the undersigned shareholder (the “Holder”) and [ ], a BVI business company (“Pubco”).

A. Cetus Capital Acquisition Corp. (“SPAC”), MKD Technology Inc., a Taiwan company (the “Company”) and Ming-Chia Huang in his capacity as the Company shareholders’ representative (the “Shareholders’ Representative”), among other parties, entered into business combination agreement dated as of [ ], 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”).

B. The Holder is or will be the record and/or beneficial owner of certain Pubco Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

C. As a condition of, and as a material inducement for Company and SPAC to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Holder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement.

D. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same meanings as assigned in the Merger Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Lock-Up.

(a) During the Lock-up Period, the Holder agrees that it, he or she will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-up Shares or otherwise, publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to the Lock-up Shares.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, during the Lock-up Period, the Pubco will (i) place a stop order on all the Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered by a registration statement, and (ii) notify the Pubco’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on the Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct the Pubco’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by the Holder to resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.

(c) For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

1

(d) The term “Lock-up Period” means the date that is 180 days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

2. Beneficial Ownership.

OFFICES

Section 1.1. Registered Office. The registered office of the Corporation within the State of Delaware shall be located at either (a) the principal place of business of the Corporation in the State of Delaware or (b) the office of the corporation or individual acting as the Corporation’s registered agent in Delaware.

Section 1.2. Additional Offices. The Corporation may, in addition to its registered office in the State of Delaware, have such other offices and places of business, both within and outside the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) may from time to time determine or as the business and affairs of the Corporation may require.

Article II
STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

Section 2.1. Annual Meetings. Unless directors are elected by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting as permitted by applicable law or an annual meeting is otherwise not required by applicable law, an annual meeting of stockholders shall be held at such place and time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a). At each annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors of the Corporation and may transact any other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. Stockholders may, unless the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), provides otherwise, act by written consent to elect directors; provided, however, that if such consent is less than unanimous, such action by written consent may be in lieu of holding an annual meeting only if all of the directorships to which directors could be elected at an annual meeting held at the effective time of such action are vacant and are filled by such action.

Section 2.2. Special Meetings. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, special meetings of stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called only by the Chairman of the Board or the President, by the Board, or by the Secretary at the request in writing of stockholders holding shares representing a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the matter for which such meeting is to be called. The Secretary shall call such a meeting upon receiving such a request. Special meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place and time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the Corporation’s notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a).

1

Section 2.3. Notices. Notice of each stockholders meeting stating the place, if any, date, and time of the meeting, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, shall be given in the manner permitted by Section 9.3 to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat by the Corporation not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. If said notice is for a stockholders meeting other than an annual meeting, it shall in addition state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, and the business transacted at such meeting shall be limited to the matters so stated in the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto).

Section 2.4. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, the presence, in person or by proxy, at a stockholders meeting of the holders of shares of outstanding capital stock of the Corporation representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting, except that when specified business is to be voted on by a class or series of stock voting as a class, the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series shall constitute a quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting or the stockholders entitled to vote thereat so present, by a majority in voting power thereof, may adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.6 until a quorum shall attend. The stockholders present at a duly convened meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation or any such other corporation to vote shares held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

Section 2.5. Voting of Shares.

(a) Voting Lists. The Secretary shall prepare, or shall cause the officer or agent who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation to prepare, at least 10 days before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders of record entitled to vote thereat arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Nothing contained in this Section 2.5(a) shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If a meeting of stockholders is to be held solely by means of remote communication as permitted by Section 9.5(a), the list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of meeting. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list required by this Section 2.5(a) or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

2

(b) Manner of Voting. At any stockholders meeting, every stockholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy. If authorized by the Board, the voting by stockholders or proxyholders at any meeting conducted by remote communication may be effected by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission (as defined in Section 9.3(c)), provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which the Corporation can determine that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder or proxyholder. The Board, in its discretion, or the chairman of the meeting of stockholders, in such person’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

(c) Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Proxies need not be filed with the Secretary until the meeting is called to order, but shall be filed with the Secretary before being voted. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, either of the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(i) A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person’s signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(ii) A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

3

(d) Required Vote. The election of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. All other matters shall be determined by the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, unless the matter is one upon which, by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, a different vote is required, in which case such provision shall govern and control the decision of such matter.

(e) Inspectors of Election. The Board may appoint one or more persons as inspectors of election, who may be employees of the Corporation or otherwise serve the Corporation in other capacities, to act at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The Board may appoint one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspectors of election or alternates are appointed by the Board, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall ascertain and report the number of outstanding shares and the voting power of each; determine the number of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots; count all votes and ballots and report the results; determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors; and certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and their count of all votes and ballots. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election. Each report of an inspector shall be in writing and signed by the inspector or by a majority of them if there is more than one inspector acting at such meeting. If there is more than one inspector, the report of a majority shall be the report of the inspectors.

Section 2.6. Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned by the chairman of the meeting or by the stockholders present and entitled to vote thereat, by a majority in voting power thereof, from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum, to reconvene at the same or some other place. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the stockholders, or the holders of any class or series of stock entitled to vote separately as a class, as the case may be, may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Section 2.7. Conduct of Meetings. The chairman of each annual and special meeting of stockholders shall be the Chairman of the Board or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Chairman of the Board, the President (if he or she shall be a director) or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the President or if the President is not a director, such other person as shall be appointed by the Board, or in the absence of such appointment, a chairman chosen at the meeting. The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the chairman of the meeting. The Board may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with these By-Laws or such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and to adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The secretary of each annual and special meeting of stockholders shall be the Secretary or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary so appointed to act by the chairman of the meeting. In the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary and all Assistant Secretaries, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

4

Section 2.8. Consents in Lieu of Meeting. Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum voting power that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation to its registered office in the State of Delaware, the Corporation’s principal place of business, or the Secretary. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the date the earliest dated consent is delivered to the Corporation, a written consent or consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take such action are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to the Corporation’s registered office in the State of Delaware, the Corporation’s principal place of business, or the Secretary. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. An electronic transmission consenting to the action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder, proxyholder or a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for purposes hereof if such electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine that such transmission was transmitted by a stockholder or proxyholder (or by a person authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder) and the date on which such stockholder, proxyholder or authorized person transmitted such transmission. The date on which such electronic transmission is transmitted shall be deemed to be the date on which such consent was signed. No consent given by electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been delivered until such consent is reproduced in paper form and delivered to the Corporation by delivery either to the Corporation’s registered office in the State of Delaware, the Corporation’s principal place of business, or the Secretary. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Notwithstanding the limitations on delivery in the previous sentence, consents given by electronic transmission may be otherwise delivered to the Corporation’s principal place of business or to the Secretary if, to the extent, and in the manner provided by resolution of the Board. Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used; provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders were delivered to the Corporation as provided in this Section 2.8.

Article III
DIRECTORS

Section 3.1. Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board, which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-Laws required to be exercised or done by the stockholders. Directors need not be stockholders or residents of the State of Delaware.

Section 3.2. Number; Term. The number of directors of the Corporation shall be as determined from time to time by the Board, but no decrease in such number shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director.

Each director shall hold office for the term for which such director is elected and until his or her successor shall have been elected and qualified, subject to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

Section 3.3. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other cause and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to vote as a single class may be filled by a majority vote of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, by a sole remaining director, or by the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, if the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled only by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, by a sole remaining director so elected, or by the stockholders of such class or classes or series thereof. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any director elected or chosen in accordance with this Section 3.3 shall hold office until the next annual election of directors and until his or her successor shall have been elected and qualified, subject to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

Section 3.4. Compensation. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, the Board shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors. The directors may be reimbursed their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board and may be paid either a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board or other compensation as director. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of committees of the Board may be allowed like compensation and reimbursement of expenses for attending committee meetings.

The consideration may consist of any tangible or intangible property or benefit to the Corporation including cash, promissory notes, services performed, contracts for services to be performed or other securities.

(b) Subject to applicable law and the Certificate of Incorporation, shares may not be issued until the full amount of the consideration has been paid, unless upon the face or back of each certificate issued to represent any partly paid shares of capital stock or upon the books and records of the Corporation in the case of partly paid uncertificated shares, there shall have been set forth the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon up to and including the time said certificate representing certificated shares or said uncertificated shares are issued.

Section 7.5. Lost, Destroyed or Wrongfully Taken Certificates

(a) If an owner of a certificate representing shares claims that such certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form if the owner: (i) requests such a new certificate before the Corporation has notice that the certificate representing such shares has been acquired by a protected purchaser; (ii) if requested by the Corporation, delivers to the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, wrongful taking or destruction of such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares; and (iii) satisfies other reasonable requirements imposed by the Corporation.

(b) If a certificate representing shares has been lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, and the owner fails to notify the Corporation of that fact within a reasonable time after the owner has notice of such loss, apparent destruction or wrongful taking and the Corporation registers a transfer of such shares before receiving notification, the owner shall be precluded from asserting against the Corporation any claim for registering such transfer or a claim to a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form.

(ii) (A) with respect to certificated shares, the indorsement is made by the person specified by the certificate as entitled to such shares; (B) with respect to uncertificated shares, an instruction is made by the registered owner of such uncertificated shares; or (C) with respect to certificated shares or uncertificated shares, the indorsement or instruction is made by any other appropriate person or by an agent who has actual authority to act on behalf of the appropriate person;

(iii) the Corporation has received a guarantee of signature of the person signing such indorsement or instruction or such other reasonable assurance that the indorsement or instruction is genuine and authorized as the Corporation may request;

(iv) the transfer does not violate any restriction on transfer imposed by the Corporation that is enforceable in accordance with Section 7.8(a); and

(v) such other conditions for such transfer as shall be provided for under applicable law have been satisfied.

(b) Whenever any transfer of shares shall be made for collateral security and not absolutely, the Corporation shall so record such fact in the entry of transfer if, when the certificate for such shares is presented to the Corporation for transfer or, if such shares are uncertificated, when the instruction for registration of transfer thereof is presented to the Corporation, both the transferor and transferee request the Corporation to do so.

Section 7.7. Registered Stockholders. Before due presentment for registration of transfer of a certificate representing shares of the Corporation or of an instruction requesting registration of transfer of uncertificated shares, the Corporation may treat the registered owner as the person exclusively entitled to inspect for any proper purpose the stock ledger and the other books and records of the Corporation, vote such shares, receive dividends or notifications with respect to such shares and otherwise exercise all the rights and powers of the owner of such shares, except that a person who is the beneficial owner of such shares (if held in a voting trust or by a nominee on behalf of such person) may, upon providing documentary evidence of beneficial ownership of such shares and satisfying such other conditions as are provided under applicable law, may also so inspect the books and records of the Corporation.

13

(b) A restriction imposed by the Corporation on the transfer or the registration of shares of the Corporation or on the amount of shares of the Corporation that may be owned by any person or group of persons, even if otherwise lawful, is ineffective against a person without actual knowledge of such restriction unless: (i) the shares are certificated and such restriction is noted conspicuously on the certificate; or (ii) the shares are uncertificated and such restriction was contained in a notice sent by the Corporation to the registered owner of such shares within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of such shares.

Section 7.9. Regulations. The Board shall have power and authority to make such additional rules and regulations, subject to any applicable requirement of law, as the Board may deem necessary and appropriate with respect to the issue, transfer or registration of transfer of shares of stock or certificates representing shares. The Board may appoint one or more transfer agents or registrars and may require for the validity thereof that certificates representing shares bear the signature of any transfer agent or registrar so appointed.

Article VIII
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1. Right to Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter a “Covered Person”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Covered Person in connection with such proceeding.

Section 8.2. Right to Advancement of Expenses. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Section 8.1, a Covered Person shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending, testifying, or otherwise participating in any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by a Covered Person in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Covered Person, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such Covered Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article VIII or otherwise.

14

Section 8.3. Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim therefor has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be 20 days, the Covered Person may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Covered Person shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (a) any suit brought by the Covered Person to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by a Covered Person to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (b) in any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the Covered Person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Covered Person is proper in the circumstances because the Covered Person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including a determination by its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Covered Person has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Covered Person has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Covered Person, shall be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the Covered Person to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VIII or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

Section 8.4. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights provided to Covered Persons pursuant to this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-Laws, an agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

Section 8.5. Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Section 8.6. Indemnification of Other Persons. This Article VIII shall not limit the right of the Corporation to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Covered Persons. Without limiting the foregoing, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation and to any other person who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of Covered Persons under this Article VIII.

15

Section 8.7. Amendments. Any repeal or amendment of this Article VIII by the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provision of these By-Laws inconsistent with this Article VIII, will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in applicable law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights to Covered Persons on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

Section 8.8. Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, (a) references to “other enterprise” shall include any employee benefit plan; (b) references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; (c) references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service that imposes duties on, or involves services by, a person with respect to any employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and (d) a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interest of the Corporation” for purposes of Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 8.9. Contract Rights. The rights provided to Covered Persons pursuant to this Article VIII shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to be a director, officer, agent or employee and shall inure to the benefit of the Covered Person’s heirs, executors and administrators.

Section 8.10. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Article VIII shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article VIII shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article VIII (including, without limitation, each such portion of this Article VIII containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if (1) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (2) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or to the Corporation’s transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

(c) Electronic Transmission. “Electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process, including but not limited to transmission by telex, facsimile telecommunication, electronic mail, telegram and cablegram.

18

(d) Notice to Stockholders Sharing Same Address. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively by the Corporation to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a single written notice to stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at that address to whom such notice is given. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder’s consent by delivering written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Corporation within 60 days of having been given written notice by the Corporation of its intention to send such a single written notice shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.

(e) Exceptions to Notice Requirements. Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.

Whenever notice is required to be given by the Corporation, under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any stockholder to whom (1) notice of two consecutive annual meetings of stockholders and all notices of stockholder meetings or of the taking of action by written consent of stockholders without a meeting to such stockholder during the period between such two consecutive annual meetings, or (2) all, and at least two payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a 12-month period, have been mailed addressed to such stockholder at such stockholder’s address as shown on the records of the Corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such stockholder shall not be required. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to such stockholder shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such stockholder shall deliver to the Corporation a written notice setting forth such stockholder’s then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such stockholder shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Section 230(b) of the DGCL. The exception in subsection (1) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any notice returned as undeliverable if the notice was given by electronic transmission.

Section 9.4. Waiver of Notice. Whenever any notice is required to be given under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these By-Laws, a written waiver of such notice, signed before or after the date of such meeting by the person or persons entitled to said notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to said notice, shall be deemed equivalent to such required notice. All such waivers shall be kept with the books of the Corporation. Attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a person attends for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.

19

Section 9.5. Meeting Attendance via Remote Communication Equipment.

(a) Stockholder Meetings. If authorized by the Board in its sole discretion, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board may adopt, stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication:

(ii) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (A) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxyholder, (B) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (C) if any stockholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such votes or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

(b) Board Meetings. Unless otherwise restricted by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these By-Laws, members of the Board or any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of the Board or any committee thereof by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting, except where a person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.

Section 9.6. Dividends. The Board may from time to time declare, and the Corporation may pay, dividends (payable in cash, property or shares of the Corporation’s capital stock) on the Corporation’s outstanding shares of capital stock, subject to applicable law and the Certificate of Incorporation.

Section 9.7. Reserves. The Board may set apart out of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve.

20

Section 9.8. Contracts and Negotiable Instruments. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, any contract, bond, deed, lease, mortgage or other instrument may be executed and delivered in the name and on behalf of the Corporation by such officer or officers or other employee or employees of the Corporation as the Board may from time to time authorize. Such authority may be general or confined to specific instances as the Board may determine. The Chairman of the Board, the President or any Vice President may execute and deliver any contract, bond, deed, lease, mortgage or other instrument in the name and on behalf of the Corporation. Subject to any restrictions imposed by the Board, the Chairman of the Board, the President or any Vice President may delegate powers to execute and deliver any contract, bond, deed, lease, mortgage or other instrument in the name and on behalf of the Corporation to other officers or employees of the Corporation under such person’s supervision and authority, it being understood, however, that any such delegation of power shall not relieve such officer of responsibility with respect to the exercise of such delegated power.

Section 9.9. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed by the Board.

Section 9.10. Seal. The seal of the Corporation shall be in such form as shall from time to time be adopted by the Board. The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed, affixed or otherwise reproduced.

Section 9.11. Books and Records. The books and records of the Corporation may be kept within or outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may from time to time be designated by the Board.

Section 9.12. Resignation. Any director, committee member or officer may resign by giving notice thereof in writing or by electronic transmission to the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Secretary. The resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, or at the time of receipt of such notice if no time is specified or the specified time is earlier than the time of such receipt. Unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 9.13. Surety Bonds. Such officers, employees and agents of the Corporation (if any) as the Chairman of the Board, President or the Board may direct, from time to time, shall be bonded for the faithful performance of their duties and for the restoration to the Corporation, in case of their death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office, of all books, papers, vouchers, money and other property of whatever kind in their possession or under their control belonging to the Corporation, in such amounts and by such surety companies as the Chairman of the Board, President or the Board may determine. The premiums on such bonds shall be paid by the Corporation and the bonds so furnished shall be in the custody of the Secretary.

Section 9.14. Securities of Other Corporations. Powers of attorney, proxies, waivers of notice of meeting, consents in writing and other instruments relating to securities owned by the Corporation may be executed in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation by the Chairman of the Board, the President or any Vice President. Any such officer may, in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation, take all such action as any such officer may deem advisable to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of security holders of any corporation in which the Corporation may own securities, or to consent in writing, in the name of the Corporation as such holder, to any action by such corporation, and at any such meeting or with respect to any such consent shall possess and may exercise any and all rights and power incident to the ownership of such securities and which, as the owner thereof, the Corporation might have exercised and possessed. The Board may from time to time confer like powers upon any other person or persons.

Section 9.15. Amendments. The Board shall have the power to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the By-Laws. The By-Laws also may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the stockholders.

If, at any time on or after the date the SPAC consummates an initial Business Combination, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.

2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of Ordinary Shares that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, and (iii) the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

(a) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has so requested exercising its rights to register its Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.

7

2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.

2.3 Registrations on Form F-3. The Holders of Registrable Securities may at any time, and from time to time, request in writing that the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any or all of their Registrable Securities on Form F-3 or any similar short form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form F-3”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an Underwritten Offering. Within five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration on Form F-3, the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration on Form F-3 to all other Holders of Registrable Securities, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration on Form F-3 shall so notify the Company, in writing, within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days after the Company’s initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on Form F-3, the Company shall file a Registration Statement relating to all or such portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof if (i) a Form F-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $10,000,000.

2.4 Restrictions on Registration Rights. If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12 month period.

ARTICLE III

COMPANY PROCEDURES

3.1 General Procedures. If at any time on or after the date the SPAC consummates an initial Business Combination the Company is required to effect the Registration of Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:

8

3.1.1 prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by the majority-in-interest of the Holders with Registrable Securities registered on such Registration Statement or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

3.1.3 prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders;

3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

3.1.5 cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

3.1.6 provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

3.1.7 advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

3.1.8 at least five (5) days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable Securities or its counsel;

3.1.9 notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;

9

3.1.10 permit a representative of the Holders (such representative to be selected by a majority of the participating Holders), the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders, or Underwriters to participate, at each such person’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representative or Underwriters enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information and provided further, the Company may not include the name of any Holder or Underwriter or any information regarding any Holder or Underwriter in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus, any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any response to any comment letter, without the prior written consent of such Holder or Underwriter and providing each such Holder or Underwriter a reasonable amount of time to review and comment on such applicable document, which comments the Company shall include unless contrary to applicable law;

3.1.11 obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Registration, which the participating Holders may rely on, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;

3.1.12 on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating Holders;

3.1.13 in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

3.1.14 make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

3.1.15 if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $51,000,000, use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any Underwritten Offering; and

3.1.16 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.

3.2 Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

10

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until he, she or it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than ninety (90) days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Ordinary Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation to indemnify under this Section 4.1.2 shall be several, not joint and several, among the Holders of Registrable Securities, and the total indemnification liability of a Holder under this Section 4.1.2 shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

11

4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 Notices. Any notice or communication under this Agreement must be in writing and given by (i) delivery in person or by courier service providing evidence of delivery or (ii) transmission by hand delivery, electronic mail or facsimile.

12

5.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

5.2.1 This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part.

5.2.2 Prior to the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the Private Placement Lock-up Period, the Working Capital Unit Lock-up Period, the Representative Shares Lock-up Period or the Extension Unit Lock-up Period, as the case may be, no Holder may assign or delegate such Holder’s rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, except in connection with a transfer of Registrable Securities by such Holder to a Permitted Transferee but only if such Permitted Transferee agrees to become bound by the transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement. After the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the Private Placement Lock-up Period, the Working Capital Unit Lock-up Period, the Representative Shares Lock-up Period or the Extension Unit Lock-up Period, as the case may be, the Holder may assign or delegate such Holder’s rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any transferee.

5.2.3 This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and its successors and the permitted assigns of the Holders, which shall include Permitted Transferees.

5.2.5 No assignment by any party hereto of such party’s rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate the Company unless and until the Company shall have received (i) written notice of such assignment as provided in Section 5.1 hereof and (ii) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum or certificate of joinder to this Agreement). Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.

5.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced.

5.4 Governing Law; Venue. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT (I) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AS APPLIED TO AGREEMENTS AMONG NEW YORK RESIDENTS ENTERED INTO AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS OF SUCH JURISDICTION AND (II) THE VENUE FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN NEW YORK COUNTY IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

13

5.5 Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in his, her or its capacity as a holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

5.6 Other Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require the Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any Registration filed by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person. Further, the Company represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

5.7 Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) January 31, 2033 or (ii) the date as of which (A) all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)) or (B) the Holders of all Registrable Securities are permitted to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale and without compliance with the current public reporting requirements set forth under Rule 144(i)(2). The provisions of Section 3.5 and Article IV shall survive any termination.

No provision of these Articles will apply to any uncertificated shares or Securities to the extent that they are inconsistent with the holding of such shares or securities in uncertificated form or the transfer of title to any such shares or securities by means of a relevant system.

1.6 | Conversion of Shares held in certificated form into Shares held in uncertificated form, and vice versa, may be made in such manner as the Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, may think fit (subject always to the requirements of the relevant system concerned).

Notwithstanding any provision of these Articles, a class or series of Shares shall not be treated as two classes by virtue only of that class or series comprising both certificated shares and uncertificated shares or as a result of any provision of these Articles which applies only in respect of certificated shares or uncertificated shares.

5.2 | Dividends may be paid in money, Shares or other property.

5.3 | The Company may, by Resolution of Directors, from time to time pay to the Members such interim dividends as appear to the directors to be justified by the profits of the Company, provided always that they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company’s assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as they fall due.

6.2 | The purchase redemption or other acquisition by the Company of its own Shares is deemed not to be a distribution where:

8.13 | If within two hours from the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition of Members, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the next business day in the jurisdiction in which the meeting was to have been held at the same time and place or to such other time and place as the directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third of the votes of the Shares or each class or series of Shares entitled to vote on the matters to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting shall either be dissolved or stand further adjourned at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board or, if different, the chairman of the meeting.

8.14 | At every meeting of Members, the Chairman of the Board or their nominee shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board or their nominee is not present at the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be the chairman. If the Members are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the person representing the greatest number of voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting shall preside as chairman failing which the oldest individual Member or representative of a Member present shall take the chair.

15

8.15 | The chairman may adjourn any meeting from time to time, and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. For the avoidance of doubt, a meeting can be adjourned for as many times as may be determined to be necessary by the chairman and a meeting may remain open indefinitely for as long a period as may be determined by the chairman.

8.16 | At any meeting of the Members the chairman of the meeting is responsible for deciding in such manner as he considers appropriate whether any resolution proposed has been carried or not and the result of his decision shall be announced to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting. If the chairman has any doubt as to the outcome of the vote on a proposed resolution, he shall cause a poll to be taken of all votes cast upon such resolution. If the chairman fails to take a poll then any Member present in person or by proxy who disputes the announcement by the chairman of the result of any vote may immediately following such announcement demand that a poll be taken and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken. If a poll is taken at any meeting, the result shall be announced to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting.

8.17 | Subject to the specific provisions contained in this Regulation for the appointment of representatives of Members other than individuals the right of any individual to speak for or represent a Member shall be determined by the law of the jurisdiction where, and by the documents by which, the Member is constituted or derives its existence. In case of doubt, the directors may in good faith seek legal advice and unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise rule, the directors may rely and act upon such advice without incurring any liability to any Member or the Company.

8.18 | Any Member who is not a natural person may by resolution of its directors or other governing body authorise such individual as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of Members or of any class of Members, and the individual so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same rights on behalf of the Member which he represents as that Member could exercise if it were an individual.

8.19 | The chairman of any meeting at which a vote is cast by proxy or on behalf of any Member other than an individual may at the meeting but not thereafter call for a notarially certified copy of such proxy or authority which shall be produced within 7 calendar days of being so requested or the votes cast by such proxy or on behalf of such Member shall be disregarded.

8.20 | Directors of the Company may attend and speak at any meeting of Members and at any separate meeting of the holders of any class or series of Shares.

8.21 | An action that may be taken by the Members at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Members consented to in writing, without the need for any prior notice. If any Resolution of Members is adopted otherwise than by the unanimous written consent of all Members, a copy of such resolution shall forthwith be sent to all Members not consenting to such resolution. The consent may be in the form of counterparts, each counterpart being signed by one or more Members. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the earliest date upon which Eligible Persons holding a sufficient number of votes of Shares to constitute a Resolution of Members have consented to the resolution by signed counterparts.

9.13 | A director is not required to hold a Share as a qualification to office.

10 | Powers of directors

10.1 | The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by, or under the direction or supervision of, the directors of the Company. The directors of the Company have all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, the business and affairs of the Company. The directors may pay all expenses incurred preliminary to and in connection with the incorporation of the Company and may exercise all such powers of the Company as are not by the Act or by the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members.

10.2 | If the Company is the wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, a director of the Company may, when exercising powers or performing duties as a director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company.

18

10.4 | If the Company is carrying out a joint venture between shareholders, a director of the Company may, when exercising powers or performing duties as a director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company.

10.5 | Each director shall exercise his powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the Company acting in a manner that contravenes the Memorandum, the Articles or the Act. Each director, in exercising his powers or performing his duties, shall act honestly and in good faith in what the director believes to be the best interests of the Company.

11.4 | A director shall be given not less than 3 calendar days’ notice of meetings of directors, but a meeting of directors held without 3 calendar days’ notice having been given to all directors shall be valid if all the directors entitled to vote at the meeting who do not attend waive notice of the meeting, and for this purpose the presence of a director at a meeting shall constitute waiver by that director. The inadvertent failure to give notice of a meeting to a director, or the fact that a director has not received the notice, does not invalidate the meeting.

19

11.5 | A meeting of directors is duly constituted for all purposes if at the commencement of the meeting there are present in person or by alternate not less than one-half of the total number of directors, unless there are only 2 directors in which case the quorum is 2.

11.6 | A director may by a written instrument appoint an alternate who need not be a director and the alternate shall be entitled to attend meetings in the absence of the director who appointed him and to vote or consent in place of the director until the appointment lapses or is terminated.

11.7 | If the Company has only one director the provisions herein contained for meetings of directors do not apply and such sole director has full power to represent and act for the Company in all matters as are not by the Act, the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members. In lieu of minutes of a meeting the sole director shall record in writing and sign a note or memorandum of all matters requiring a Resolution of Directors. Such a note or memorandum constitutes sufficient evidence of such resolution for all purposes.

11.8 | At meetings of directors at which the Chairman of the Board is present, he shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present, the directors present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

11.9 | An action that may be taken by the directors or a committee of directors at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Directors or a resolution of a committee of directors consented to in writing by all directors or by all members of the committee, as the case may be, without the need for any notice. The consent may be in the form of counterparts each counterpart being signed by one or more directors. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the date upon which the last director has consented to the resolution by signed counterparts.

12 | Committees

12.1 | The directors may, by Resolution of Directors, designate one or more committees, each consisting of one or more directors, and delegate one or more of their powers, including the power to affix the Seal, to the committee.

12.4 | The meetings and proceedings of each committee of directors consisting of 2 or more directors shall be governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of the Articles regulating the proceedings of directors so far as the same are not superseded by any provisions in the Resolution of Directors establishing the committee.

Such officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors (the Chairman of the Board), a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Financial Officer, one or more vice-presidents, secretaries and treasurers and such other officers as may from time to time be considered necessary or expedient. Any number of offices may be held by the same person.

13.2 | The officers shall perform such duties as are prescribed at the time of their appointment subject to any modification in such duties as may be prescribed thereafter by Resolution of Directors. In the absence of any specific prescription of duties it shall be the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board to preside at meetings of directors and Members, the Chief Executive Officer to manage the day to day affairs of the Company, the vice-presidents to act in order of seniority in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer but otherwise to perform such duties as may be delegated to them by the Chief Executive Officer, the secretaries to maintain the Register of Members, minute books and records (other than financial records) of the Company and to ensure compliance with all procedural requirements imposed on the Company by applicable law, and the treasurer to be responsible for the financial affairs of the Company.

An agent of the Company shall have such powers and authority of the directors, including the power and authority to affix the Seal, as are set forth in the Articles or in the Resolution of Directors appointing the agent, except that no agent has any power or authority with respect to the matters specified in Regulation 12.2. The Resolution of Directors appointing an agent may authorise the agent to appoint one or more substitutes or delegates to exercise some or all of the powers conferred on the agent by the Company. The directors may remove an agent appointed by the Company and may revoke or vary a power conferred on him.

14 | Conflict of interests

| (b) | attend a meeting of directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among the directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and

and, subject to compliance with the Act shall not, by reason of his office be accountable to the Company for any benefit which he derives from such transaction and no such transaction shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any such interest or benefit.

15 | Indemnification

15.1 | Subject to the limitations hereinafter provided the Company may indemnify against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings any person who:

15.3 | The decision of the directors as to whether the person acted honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company and as to whether the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful is, in the absence of fraud, sufficient for the purposes of the Articles, unless a question of law is involved.

15.4 | The termination of any proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction or the entering of a nolle prosequi does not, by itself, create a presumption that the person did not act honestly and in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the Company or that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

15.5 | The Company may purchase and maintain insurance in relation to any person who is or was a director, officer or liquidator of the Company, or who at the request of the Company is or was serving as a director, officer or liquidator of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another company or a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in that capacity, whether or not the Company has or would have had the power to indemnify the person against the liability as provided in the Articles.

| (vii) | to determine all matters relating to whether a Grantee’s status as a Service Provider has been terminated, including without limitation if such termination was for Cause and, if so, to determine the effective date of such termination (which the Administrator may determine to be the date of notice of resignation or the date of an act or omission by such Grantee constituting Cause), and whether particular leaves of absence constitute a termination of the Service Provider, and to determine the treatment of Award upon termination of a Grantee;

| (d) | Vesting. The time period and conditions upon which an Award, in whole or in part, vests in the Grantee shall be set by the Administrator, and the Administrator may determine that an Award may not vest in whole or in part for a specified period after it is granted. Such vesting may be based on service with a Group Member or any other criteria selected by the Administrator. At any time after grant of an Award, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects, accelerate the vesting of such Award. No portion of an Award which is unexercisable at the termination of Grantee’s status of as a Service Provider shall thereafter become exercisable, except as may be otherwise provided in the Award Agreement or by decision of the Administrator following the grant of the Award.

6. | Termination of the Awards.

| (a) | Termination for reasons other than death or Disability or for Cause. Except as may be otherwise provided either in the Award Agreement or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Award, (A) all granted but unvested Awards shall cease to vest on the date of termination and the corresponding Shares shall revert to the Plan and again be available for grant of other Awards under the Plan; (B) vested but unexercised Awards may only be exercised within the exercise period(s) determined by the Administrator; and (C) as to exercised Awards (including Awards exercised under the aforementioned clause (B), the Company has the right to repurchase the corresponding Shares at the then Fair Market Value of such Shares, which shall be reverted to the Plan and again be available for Award grants pursuant to this Plan.

Except as may be otherwise provided either in the Award Agreement or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Award, if the Grantee’s status as a Service Provider is terminated due to the Grantee’s death (including declaration of death) or Disability, (A) all granted but unvested Awards shall cease to vest on the date of termination and the corresponding Shares shall revert to the Plan and again be available for grant of other Awards under the Plan; (B) vested but unexercised Awards may only be exercised within the exercise period(s) determined by the Administrator; and (C) as to exercised Awards (including the Awards exercised under the aforementioned clause (B)), the Company has the right to repurchase the corresponding Shares at the then Fair Market Value of such Shares, which shall again be available for Award grants pursuant to this Plan

| (c) | Termination for Cause. Except as may be otherwise provided either in the Award Agreement or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Award, if a Grantee’s status as a Service Provider is terminated for Cause, (A) all of such Grantee’s unexercised Awards, whether vested or unvested, shall be cancelled as of the date of such termination; (B) all Shares acquired pursuant to an Award by such Grantee shall be subject to repurchase by the Company at any time and from time to time at (i) the original Purchase Price or Exercise Price paid for the Shares; (ii) the par value of such Shares, if such Shares are issued under Restricted Share Units; or (iii) in the event the price was paid in services, then the Shares will be forfeited and cancelled without payment; and (C) all proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Grantee upon any receipt or exercise of any Award (or a portion thereof), or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying any Award (or a portion thereof), must be restituted to the Company.

C-8

7. | Dividend Equivalents

| (a) | Subject to the then-effective Articles of Association of the Company, the Administrator may grant Dividend Equivalents on the Shares underlying any Award prior to issuance of such Shares under such Award. Dividend Equivalents with respect to an Award may be granted by the Administrator based on dividends declared on the Shares underlying such Award. Such Dividend Equivalents may be settled in cash, other property or a reduction in exercise price or base price of the relevant Award by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Administrator.
| (b) | Except as may otherwise be provided by the Administrator either in an Award Agreement, a Grantee’s rights in all Dividend Equivalent Rights shall automatically terminate upon the Grantee’s termination of employment (or cessation of service relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason.

8. | Options

| (a) | Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement which will expressly identify if the Option qualifies as an Incentive Stock Option, and will be in such form and contain such provisions (which need not be identical among each Grantee) as the Administrator may from time to time approve.

| (b) | Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option shall be determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, no Option may be granted to a U.S. Person with an exercise price per Share which is less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of grant, without compliance with Section 409A of the Code or the Grantee’s consent. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option may be amended or adjusted in the absolute discretion of the Administrator, provided that such adjustment does not result in a materially adverse impact to the Grantee. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, any downward adjustment of the exercise prices of Options shall be effective without the approval of the affected Grantees.

| (c) | Procedure of Exercise. Options shall be exercised within the time period or upon the conditions determined by the Administrator in the Award Agreement. The Grantee shall issue a written notice of exercise in a form approved by the Administrator, stating the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised and any other terms and conditions required by the Company when an Option is exercised. Upon exercise of an Option, each Grantee shall execute and deliver to the Company the notice of exercise and go through the procedures set forth in the Award Agreement, together with payment in full of the Exercise Price for the number of shares being purchased and payment of any applicable Taxes.

| (d) | Limitation on Exercise. The Administrator may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent the Grantee from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable.

| (e) | No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the Grantee, to disqualify any Grantee’s ISO under Section 422 of the Code.

C-9

9. | Restricted Share

| (a) | Form of Restricted Share Award. All grants of Restricted Share Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in such form (which need not be identical among each Grantee) as approved by the Administrator from time to time. The grant of Restricted Shares is deemed to be accepted by the Grantee’s execution and delivery of the Award Agreement and full payment for such Restricted Shares.
| (b) | Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Restricted Shares shall be determined by the Administrator on the date the Restricted Share Award is granted or such other time as determined by the Administrator.

| (c) | Restrictions. All Restricted Shares shall, in the terms of each individual Award Agreement, be subject to such restrictions and vesting requirements as determined by the Administrator. Restricted Shares may not be sold or encumbered until all restrictions are terminated or expire. All Restricted Shares shall be held by the Company in escrow for the Grantee until all restrictions on such Restricted Shares have been removed.

| (d) | Repurchase or Forfeiture of Restricted Shares. If the Purchase Price for the Restricted Shares is paid by the Grantee in services, then upon termination as a Service Provider, the Grantee’s rights in unvested Restricted Shares then subject to restrictions shall lapse, and such Restricted Shares shall be surrendered or transferred to the Company without consideration.

10. | Restricted Share Units

| (a) | Form of Restricted Share Units Award. All grants of RSUs made pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall be in such form (which need not be identical among each Grantee) as approved by the Administrator from time to time.

| (b) | Form and Timing of Settlement. To the extent permissible under the Applicable Law, the Administrator may permit a Grantee to defer payment under the RSUs to a date or dates after the RSU is earned. Payment may be made in the form of cash or whole Shares or a combination thereof, all as the Administrator determines.

11. | Share Appreciation Rights

| (a) | Form of Share Appreciation Rights. All grants of SARs made pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall be in such form (which need not be identical among each Grantee) as approved by the Administrator from time to time.

| (b) | Base Price. The base price per Share, over which the appreciation of each SARs is to be measured, shall be a fixed or variable price determined by the Administrator by reference to the Fair Market Value of the Shares and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that for each U.S. Person such base price may not be established at a price less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. The base price per Share so established may be amended or adjusted in the absolute discretion of the Administrator, provided, that such adjustment does not result in a materially adverse impact to the Grantee. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, a downward adjustment in the base price mentioned in the preceding sentence shall be effective without the approval of the affected Grantee.

| (c) | Exercise Procedure. Any SAR Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable within such time or upon such conditions as determined by the Administrator. Upon exercise of a SAR Award, the Grantee shall execute and deliver to the Company a written notice in a form approved by the Administrator and go through the procedures in accordance with the Award Agreement, together with full payment of all applicable Taxes including which are required to be withheld or paid by the relevant Group Member.

C-10

12. | Payment for Purchases and Exercises

| (a) | Payment in General. Payment for Shares acquired pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash (by check) or, where expressly approved for the Grantee by the Administrator and where permitted by Applicable law:

| (i) | by cancellation of indebtedness of any Group Member owed to the Grantee;

| (ii) | by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Grantee from the relevant Group Member for services rendered;

| (iii) | provided that a public market for the Company’s Shares exists, by exercising through a “same day sale” commitment from the Grantee and a broker-dealer whereby the Grantee irrevocably elects to exercise the Award and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased sufficient to pay the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price, and whereby the broker-dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price directly to the Company or the relevant Group Member; or

| (iv) | by any combination of the foregoing or any other method of payment as approved by the Administrator.

| (b) | Withholding Taxes. Each Grantee shall be responsible for the payment of applicable withholding and other taxes in cash that may become due in connection with the grant, exercise or settlement of any Award. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan, the Company may require the Grantee to remit to the Company or the relevant Group Member an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements prior to the issuance of any such Shares. Whenever, under this Plan, payments in satisfaction of Awards are to be made in cash by the Company, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements. The Administrator may permit a Grantee to satisfy such obligation through the delivery of Shares that have a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be paid, to the extent that the Administrator determines that so satisfying such obligation would not adversely impact the Company’s ability to meet its cash obligations.

13. | Corporate Transactions

| (a) | In the event that the Company is subject to a Deemed Liquidation Event, the Administrator may in its sole discretion take one or more of the following actions (which need not treat all outstanding Awards in an identical manner) without prior consent of the Grantees:

| (i) | the continuation of such outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the successor entity);

| (ii) | the assumption, conversion or replacement of outstanding Awards by the successor entity (or its parent, if any) with other rights or property determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion; or the substitution of equivalent awards granted by the successor entity (or its parent, if any) with substantially similar terms for such outstanding Awards;
| (iii) | the full or partial exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of any outstanding Awards;

C-11

| (iv) | the settlement of the full value of such outstanding Awards (whether or not then vested or exercisable) in cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the successor entity (or its parent, if any) with a Fair Market Value equal to the required amount, followed by the cancellation of such Awards; provided however, that such Award may be cancelled without consideration if such Award has no value, as determined by the Administrator in good faith, in its discretion. Such payment may be made in installments and may be deferred until the date or dates when the Award would have become exercisable or vested; or,

| (v) | any other actions as the Administrator deems necessary.

| (b) | Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another entity, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other entity or otherwise, by either (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other entity’s award or (b) assuming and/or converting such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other entity had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant.

14. | Restrictions

| (a) | Non-Transferability. Excepted as permitted otherwise in the Award Agreement and in addition to the restrictions set forth in Section 15 thereof, any Award granted under this Plan and any interest therein shall not be transferable or assignable by the Grantee, other than by will or by laws of descent and distribution.

| (b) | Exchange and Buyout of Awards. The Administrator may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Grantee, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. The Administrator may reprice Options or SARs (and where such repricing is a reduction in the Exercise Price of outstanding Options or the base price of outstanding SARs, the consent of the affected Grantee is not required). The Administrator may at any time buy from a Grantee an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including Restricted Shares) or other consideration.

| (c) | Privileges of Share Ownership. No Grantee will have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any Shares until such Shares are issued to the Grantee by entry in the Company’s register of members. After Shares are issued and the Grantee is registered in the Company’s register of members, the Grantee will become a shareholder and have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Shares, then any new, additional or different securities the Grantee may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a share dividend, share split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Shares.
| (d) | Rights of First Refusal and Repurchase. At the sole discretion of the Administrator, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement (a) a right of first refusal to purchase all Shares that a Grantee (or a subsequent transferee) may propose to transfer to a third party, and (b) a right to repurchase unvested Shares held by a Grantee for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness owed to the Company by the Grantee following such Grantee’s termination as a Service Provider.

C-12

| (e) | Non-transaction. All Share issued to the Grantees pursuant to the Plan may be subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Administrator may require that a Grantee make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Administrator, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Administrator shall have the right to require a Grantee to comply with the timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation.

| (f) | Escrow. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Administrator has determined that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is necessary in order to be in compliance with the Applicable Law; provided, however, to enforce any restrictions on a Grantee’s Shares, the Administrator may require the Grantee to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with other instruments of transfer approved by the Administrator, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated. The Administrator may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the Share certificates.

15. | Securities Law Registration and Restrictions.

| (a) | The Company shall be under no obligation to effect or procure the registration or effect similar compliance with respect to any applicable securities laws with respect to any Award or Shares to be issued or transferred, as the case may be, hereunder. Any issuance or transfer, as the case may be, of Shares to a Grantee pursuant to the exercise of an Option or settlement of a RSU and/or Share Award shall only be effective once such Shares have been registered in such Grantee’s name in the Company’s Register of Members or recorded with the transfer agent or share incentive plan administrator of the Company for the benefit of the Grantee (as the case may be). The Company may, in its sole discretion, defer (i) the effectiveness of an exercise, or delay the exercisability, of an Option hereunder or the issuance or transfer of the Shares pursuant to any Option and/or (ii) the issuance or transfer of the Shares pursuant to any RSU and/or Share Awards or to help ensure compliance under applicable securities laws and any exemptions therefrom on which the Company may be relying.
| (b) | Section 409A. To the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted to a U.S. Person under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and United States Department of Treasury regulations (“Department of Treasury”) and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance, the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the application of any penalty taxes under such Section.

17. | Miscellaneous General Rules

| (a) | No obligation to Employ. Neither the Plan nor any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to continuing the Grantee’s relationship as a Service Provider with any Group Member, nor shall it interfere in any way any Group Member’s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

| (c) | Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by the laws of the British Virgin Islands.

| (d) | Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.
| (e) | Language. The official language of the Plan shall be English. To the extent that the Plan are translated from English into another language, the English version of the Plan will always govern, in the event that there are inconsistencies or ambiguities which may arise due to such translation.
