*Promissory Note*

On August 30, 2024, Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation (the "Company") issued an unsecured promissory note (the "Original Note") in the principal amount of up to $1,000,000 to Whale Management Corporation ("Whale"). The Original Note did not bear any interest and had a maturity date of the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2025 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination. The Original Note was subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which would entitle Whale to declare, by written notice to Company, the unpaid principal balance of the Original Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Original Note becoming immediately due and payable.

On August 21, 2025, the Company and Whale agreed to amend and restate the Original Note to solely raise the principal balance from $1,000,000 to $1,200,000 (the "Amended Note"). Other than the increased principal amount, the Amended Note has the same terms as the Original Note.

The issuance of the Amended Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

A copy of the Amended Note is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The disclosure set forth in this Item 2.03 is intended to be a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Note.

On August 26, 2025, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the "Extraordinary General Meeting"). Holders of 7,308,278 ordinary shares of the Company held as of record as of July 17, 2025, the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting, were present in person or by proxy, representing approximately 82.46% of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting, which present a quorum. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, holders of the Company's outstanding ordinary shares in attendance (represented in person or by proxy) voted on two proposals presented, the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, each as described in the proxy statement dated August 5, 2025 ("EGM Proxy Statement").

Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, herein have the meaning given to them in the EGM Proxy Statement.

**Proposal No. 1 – The Extension Fee Reduction Proposal**

The Company's shareholders approved the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal, a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution, the reduction of the monthly fee payable by the Company's sponsor and/or its designee into the trust account to extend the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination from $0.033 per each outstanding public share (for each monthly extension) to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $60,000 for all outstanding public shares and (ii) $0.033 for each outstanding public share. The first monthly extension fee must be made by September 20, 2025 while each subsequent monthly extension fee must be deposited into the trust account by the 20th of each succeeding month until June 20, 2026. This proposal has been approved by the following votes:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **For** | **Against** | **Abstain** |
| 4,200,577 | 3,107,701 | 0 |

**Proposal No. 2 – The Adjournment Proposal**

The Company's shareholders approved the Adjournment Proposal, a proposal to approve, by ordinary resolution, the adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit the further solicitation and vote of proxies if there are not sufficient votes to approve Proposal 1 presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

As there were sufficient votes to approve the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was not presented to the shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Below are the votes tabulated for the Adjournment Proposal:

This Amended and Restated Promissory Note (this "Note") amends and restates the Promissory Note, dated as of August 30, 2024 (the "Original Note") from Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempt company (the "**Maker**"), promises to pay to the order of Whale Management Corporation or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the "**Payee**"), or order, the principal sum of up to One Million and Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

**1.** **Principal.** The principal balance of this Note shall be
payable by the Maker on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2025 or (ii) the date on which Maker consummates its initial business combination.
The principal balance may be prepaid at any time. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any officer,
director, employee or shareholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

**2.** **Interest.** No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal
balance of this Note.

**3.** **Drawdown Requests.** Maker and Payee agree that Maker may
request up to One Million and Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) for costs reasonably related to Maker's operational cost
and expenses related to its initial business combination. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the
earlier of: (i) December 31, 2025 or (ii) the date on which Maker consummates its initial business combination, upon written request

Request no later than five (5) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns
collectively under this Note is One Million and Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000). Once an amount is drawn down under this Note,
it shall not be available for future Drawdown Requests even if prepaid. No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection
with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by Maker. It is acknowledged that the Company may have received amounts in respect of drawdowns
under this Note prior to the date hereof, and it is agreed that all such sums were received as drawdowns of principal hereunder in anticipation
of the execution of this Note.

**4.** **Application of Payments.** All payments shall be applied
first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable

by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar
official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or

any of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) <u>Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc</u>. The entry of a decree or
order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy,

any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days.

**6. Remedies.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)
hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount

sureties for, this Note waive presentment for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard to the

might accrue to Maker by virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising
from any sale of any such property, from attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption
from civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment
obtained by virtue hereof or any writ of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired
by Payee.

**11.** **Severability.** Any provision contained in this Note which
is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

**12.** **Trust Waiver.** Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind ()"**Claim**") in or to any distribution
of or from the trust account established in which the proceeds of the initial public offering (the "**IPO**") conducted

to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the IPO, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement,
payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for any reason whatsoever.

**13.** **Amendment; Waiver.** Any amendment hereto or waiver of
