**Item 8.01. Other Events.**

On January 4, 2023, AlphaTime Acquisition Corp (the "**<u>Company</u>**") consummated its initial public offering ("**<u>IPO</u>**") of 6,000,000 units (the "**<u>Units</u>**"). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the "**<u>Ordinary Shares</u>**"), one redeemable warrant (the "**Warrants**") and one right (the "**<u>Rights</u>**"), with each Right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share upon the completion of an initial business combination, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $60,000,000. On January 6, 2023, Chardan Capital Markets, LLC exercised its over-allotment option (the "Overallotment"), which subsequently closed on January 9, 2023, to purchase an additional 900,000 Units at a public offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $9,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale of 370,500 private units to Alphamade Holding LP (the "**<u>Private Units</u>**") at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,705,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Overallotment, the Company completed the private sale of an additional 38,700 Private Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $387,000.

A total of $70,242,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Units (including the Overallotment of the Units and Private Units) were placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

An audited balance sheet dated as of January 4, 2023, reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

of AlphaTime Acquisition Corp.

**Opinion on the Financial Statement**

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AlphaTime Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") as of January 4, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 4, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern**

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statement, the Company has no revenue, its business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination and the Company must liquidate if the business combination is not consummated within 12 months. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1 to the financial statement. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

**Basis for Opinion**

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is 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 statement, 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 statement. 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 statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**ALPHATIME ACQUISITION CORP.**

**Notes to the financial statement**

**NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS**

AlphaTime Acquisition Corp (the "Company") was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 15, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the "Business Combination").

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of January 4, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity from September 15, 2021 (inception) through January 4, 2023 relates to the Company's formation and the Initial public offering ("Initial Public Offering"), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The Company's sponsor is Alphamade Holding LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Sponsor"). The Company's ability to commence operations is contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources through a Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units (the "Units" and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the "Public Shares" or the "Public Share") at $10.00 per Unit, which is discussed in Note 3, and the sale of 370,500 Units (the "Private Placement Units") at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in private placements to the Sponsor which closed simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering.

The Company's management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 90% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the "Public Shareholders") with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders 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 $10.18 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity."

The Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that it does not then become subject to the SEC's "penny stock" rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favour of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against an initial business combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a "group" (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company's prior written consent.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company's initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment 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 Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.

The Company will have until 9 months (or up to 18 months, if we extend the time to complete a Business Combination as described in this prospectus) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the "Combination Period"). However, if the Company has not completed 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 100% of 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, 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 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within 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 the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than 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 discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.18 per Public Share and (2) 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 $10.18 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company's indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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. The Company will 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 (other than the Company's independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

**The Trust Account**

As of January 4, 2023, a total of $61,080,000 of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering, including proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, and $280,350 representing excess of funds used for issuance of the over-allotment units, corresponding to the portion by the Sponsor, was deposited in a trust account (the "Trust Account") and will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company's shareholders, as described below.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The registration statement for the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 30, 2022. On January 4, 2023 the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units ("Public Units"), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of 370,500 units (the "Private Placement Units") at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Sponsor generating gross proceeds of $3,705,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $4,465,199 consisting of $1,500,000 of underwriting discount, $2,100,000 of deferred underwriting commission and $865,199 of other offering costs.

The Company's liquidity needs up to January 4, 2023 had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares to cover certain offering costs. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Company's Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company's officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. As of January 4, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under any loans.

As of January 4, 2023, the date of the Initial Public Offering, the Company had a working capital of $286,564. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. The Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time. Management plans to consummate the initial business combination may not be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

**NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying financial statement have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

***Emerging Growth Company***

The Company is an "emerging growth company," as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (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 shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, we, 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 our financial statement 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.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company's 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 statement and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

***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 held in escrow account with trust agent flow-through account of $779,034 as of January 4, 2023, which was fully wired to vendors and working capital on January 5, 2023.

***Cash held in Trust Account***

 ****

As of January 4, 2023, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash. On January 4, 2023, the Company had $61,080,000 in cash held in the Trust Account – non-current and had $280,350 in cash held in Trust Account - current.

 **

***Concentration of Credit Risk***

 **

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations 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. The Company has not experienced losses on this account.

 ****

***Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering***

The Company complies with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounted to $4,465,199 were charged to shareholders' deficit upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

***Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption***

 ****

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity". Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary share (including ordinary share 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, ordinary share is classified as shareholders' equity. The Company's ordinary share features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of January 4, 2023, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.18 per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders' deficit section of the Company's balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.

 ****

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, "*Fair Value Measurement*," approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

***Income Taxes***

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statement and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position 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. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of January 4, 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 determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company's only major tax jurisdiction.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by federal and state taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company's management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands for the period from September 15, 2021 (inception) through January 4, 2023.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's financial statement.

**NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING**

On January 4, 2023, the Company sold 6,000,000 Public Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Public Unit generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000 related to the Initial Public Offering. Each Public Unit consists of one ordinary share (each, a "Public Share"), and one redeemable warrant (each, a "Public Warrant") and one right (each, a "Public Right") entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one ordinary share upon the completion of an initial business combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.

As of January 4, 2023, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table.

**NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS**

The Sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 370,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, amounting to $3,705,000, from the Company in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one ordinary share, one warrant (each a "Private Warrant") and one right (each, a "Private Right") entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one ordinary share upon the completion of an initial business combination. Each Private Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units are added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law). The Private Placement Units are subject to certain transfer restrictions which are discussed in Note 5.

**NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

***Founder shares***

On September 28, 2021, the Sponsor received 1,437,500 of the Company's Class B ordinary shares in exchange for $25,000 paid for deferred offering costs borne by the Sponsor.

On January 8, 2022, the board of directors of the Company and the Sponsor, as sole shareholder of the Company, approved, through a special resolution, the following share capital changes (see note 7):

(a) Each of the authorized but unissued 200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were cancelled and re-designated as the ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each;

On January 8, 2022, the Company issued an additional 287,500 ordinary shares to the Sponsor for no additional consideration, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the "Founder Shares"). The issuance was considered as a bonus share issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part (refer Note 7 for Founder Shares transferred by Sponsor to Underwriters).

On the date of closing of this offering, the Founder Shares and Private Placement Units will be placed into an escrow account maintained by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as escrow agent. The Founder Shares and Private Placement Units (and underlying securities) will not, subject to certain exceptions, be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow in the case of (i) 50% of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Units (and underlying securities) until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or (B) the date on which the closing price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after our initial business combination and (ii) the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Units (and underlying securities) until six months after the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to our initial business combination, we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property.

**NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

***Registration Rights***

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, securities underlying the unit purchase option ("UPO"), and Units that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Units) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to 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 the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

**Underwriting Agreement**

The Company will grant the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On January 6, 2023, the underwriters notified the Company that it is exercising the over-allotment option with respect to the 900,000 additional Units and designates January 9, 2023 as the option closing date for the purchase of the units.

The underwriters will be entitled to a deferred commission of $0.35 per Unit, or $2,100,000 in the aggregate. The deferred commission will be paid to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

**Unit Purchase Option**

We have agreed to sell to the underwriters, for $100.00, an option to purchase up to a total of 58,000 Units exercisable, in whole or in part, at $11.50 per unit (or 115% of the Market Value), commencing on the consummation of our initial business combination, and expires five years from the effective date of this offering. The option and the 58,000 Units, as well as the 58,000 ordinary shares, the warrants to purchase 58,000 ordinary shares that may be issued upon exercise of the option and the rights to purchase 5,800 ordinary shares upon the completion of an initial business combination, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or the commencement of sales in this offering pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA's Rules, during which time the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities, except as permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).

**Risks and Uncertainties**

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company's financial position, results of its operations, close of the Initial Public Offering, 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.

**NOTE 7 — SHAREHOLDERS' DEFICIT** 

***Preferred Shares*** — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company's board of directors. As of January 4, 2023, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.

***Ordinary Shares —*** The Company was authorized to issue 200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share and 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

On September 28, 2021, the Sponsor received 1,437,500 of the Company's Class B ordinary shares in exchange for $25,000 paid for deferred offering costs borne by the Sponsor. Out of the 1,437,500 Class B ordinary shares, an aggregate of up to 187,500 Class B ordinary shares were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part so that the number of Founder Shares will equal 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding private placement shares).

On January 8, 2022, the board of directors of the Company and the Sponsor, as sole shareholder of the Company, approved, through a special resolution, the following share capital changes:

(a) Each of the authorized but unissued 200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were cancelled and re-designated as the ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each;

(b) Each of the 1,437,500 Class B ordinary shares in issue were repurchased in consideration for the issuance of 1,437,500 ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each; and

(c) Upon completion of the above steps, the authorized but unissued 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares were cancelled.

As an effect of the above, the Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. Further, the shareholder also approved the amendment and restatement of the memorandum and articles of association filed with the Cayman Registrar.

On January 8, 2022, the Company issued an additional 287,500 ordinary shares to the Sponsor as fully paid bonus shares for no additional consideration. The issuance was considered as a bonus share issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively.

As of January 4, 2023, there were 1,725,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares are subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part so that the number of Founder Shares will equal 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding private placement shares). Concurrent with the closing of this offering, our Sponsor, at the option of the Company, sold to underwriter or its designees 115,500 Founder Shares for a purchase price of $2.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $231,000.

On January 4, 2023, the Company received an amount of $352,350 as part of the over-allotment of the Private Placement Units pending to be issued to the Sponsor. The Company accounted for these proceeds received as Due to related party, pending final allotment to the Sponsor.

***Warrants —*** All warrants (Public and Private) will become exercisable at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, on later of 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination or 12 months from the closing of this offering; provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement). The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years after the completion of the initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. On the exercise of any warrant, the warrant exercise price will be paid directly to the Company and not placed in the Trust Account.

The Company is not registering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants at this time. However, the Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 business days after the closing of the initial business combination, it will use the commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following the initial business combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to maintain a current prospectus relating to those ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed; provided, that if the ordinary shares is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a "covered security" under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a "cashless basis" in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but the Company will be required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available

**Redemption of Warrants**

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

● in whole and not in part;

● at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

● upon a minimum of 30 days' prior written notice of redemption, which we refer to as the 30-day redemption period; and

● if, and only if, the last sale price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

The Company will not redeem the warrants unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those ordinary shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period, except if the warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. The Company will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such ordinary shares under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the warrants were offered by the company in this offering.

If the Company call the warrants for redemption as described above, its management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a "cashless basis." In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a "cashless basis," its management will consider, among other factors, the cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the Company's shareholders of issuing the maximum number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the "fair market value" (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The "fair market value" shall mean the average last reported sale price of the ordinary shares 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.

**Rights** — Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the initial business combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Cayman law. In the event the Company is not the surviving company upon completion of the initial business combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share underlying each right upon consummation of the business combination. If the Company is unable to complete the initial business combination within the required time period and the Company will redeem the public shares for the funds held in the trust account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights and the rights will expire worthless.
