AURORA TECHNOLOGY ACQUISITION CORP.

(the "Company")

RESOLUTIONS OF THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY

RESOLVED, as a special resolution that, effective immediately, the Amended and Restated Articles of Association of the Company be amended by:

deleting Article 37.2 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

"The Company has until 12 months from the closing of the IPO to consummate a Business Combination, provided however that if the board of directors anticipates that the Company may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months of the closing of the IPO, the Company may, by resolution of directors if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to six times, each by an additional one month (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the trust agreement governing the Trust Account and referred to in the Registration Statement, as may be amended from time to time. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO or within up to 18 months from the closing of the IPO (subject in the latter case to valid one-month extensions having been made in each case (such date falling 12 months or up to 18 months, as applicable, after the closing of the IPO being referred to as the Termination Date)), such failure shall trigger an automatic redemption of the Public Shares (an Automatic Redemption Event) and the directors of the Company shall take all such action necessary to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter to redeem the Public Shares to the holders of Public Shares, on a pro rata basis, in cash at a per-share amount equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price; and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such Automatic Redemption Event, subject to the approval of our remaining Members and our directors, liquidate and dissolve the Company, subject to the Company's obligations under the Act to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In the event of an Automatic Redemption Event, only the holders of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive pro rata redeeming distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Public Shares."

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1** 

**AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT** 

**TRUST AGREEMENT** 

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TRUST AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is made as of February 3, 2023, by and between Aurora Technology Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "Company"), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation (the "Trustee"). Capitalized terms contained in this Amendment, but not specifically defined in this Amendment, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, on February 9, 2022, the Company consummated an initial public offering (the "Offering") of units of the Company, each of which is composed of one of the Company's Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share ("Ordinary Shares"), one warrant and one right;

WHEREAS, $204,020,000 of the gross proceeds of the Offering and sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) were delivered to the Trustee to be deposited and held in the segregated Trust Account located in the United States for the benefit of the Company and the holders of Ordinary Shares included in the Units issued in the Offering pursuant to the investment management trust agreement made effective as of February 7, 2022, by and between the Company and the Trustee (the "Original Agreement");

WHEREAS, the Company has sought the approval of the holders of its Ordinary Shares and holders of its Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class B Ordinary Shares"), at an extraordinary general meeting to: (i) give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time, from February 9, 2023 to August 9, 2023 (i.e., for a period of time ending 18 months from the consummation of its initial public offering) (the "Extension Amendment") and (ii) a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement requiring the Company to deposit into the Trust Account funds equal to the lesser of (A) $135,000, or (B) $0.045 per share multiplied by the number of outstanding public Ordinary Shares for each one-month extension from February 9, 2023 (the "Trust Amendment");

WHEREAS, holders of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the then issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting together as a single class, approved the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment; and WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Original Agreement to, among other things, reflect amendments to the Original Agreement contemplated by the Trust Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. *Amendment to Trust Agreement.* Section 1(i) of the Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

"(i) Commence liquidation of the Trust Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter from the Company ("***Termination Letter***") in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit A or Exhibit B signed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company or by the Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or other authorized officer of the Company, and, in the case of a Termination Letter in a form substantially similar to the attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>, acknowledged and agreed to by the Representatives, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including interest (less up to $50,000 of interest that may be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses in the case of a Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit B hereto and which interest shall be net of any taxes payable), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein, or (y) the date which is the later of (i) 12 months after the closing of the IPO, provided that the Company may, but is not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate its initial Business Combination six (6) times by an additional one month each time (for a total of up to 18 months to complete its initial Business Combination); further provided that upon each one-month extension of the period of time to consummate an initial Business Combination, the Sponsor (or its designees) must deposit into the Trust Account funds equal to the lesser of (A) $135,000, or (B) $0.045 per share multiplied by the number of outstanding public ordinary shares that have not been redeemed in accordance with Section 37.2 of the Company's Articles (as defined below), in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note, and (ii) such later date as may be approved by the Company's stockholders in accordance with the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Association, as amended (the "Articles") if a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in

------
