All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-K including, without limitation, statements in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipates," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "seek," "would" and variations and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this report may include, for example, statements about our:

● ability to complete our initial business combination;

● success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers, key employees or directors following our initial business combination;

● officers and directors allocating their time to other businesses and potentially having conflicts of interest with our business or in approving our initial business combination, as a result of which they would then receive expense reimbursements;

● pool of prospective target businesses;

● the ability of our officers and directors to generate a number of potential investment opportunities;

● potential change in control if we acquire one or more target businesses for stock;

The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws and/or if and when management knows or has a reasonable basis on which to conclude that previously disclosed projections are no longer reasonably attainable.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

International Media Acquisition Corp. ("**IMAQ**" or the "**Company**") is a Delaware blank check company incorporated on January 15, 2021. The Company was form for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a "**business combination**"). The Company has entered into a Merger Agreement with various parties as discussed below. 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.

If IMAQ does not consummate a business combination by July 2, 2026 (or until January 2, 2027 if we fully extend the date to consummate a business combination), then, pursuant to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, IMAQ will be required to dissolve and liquidate as soon as reasonably practicable, unless IMAQ seeks stockholder approval to amend IMAQ's certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which an initial business combination may be consummated.

Initial Public Offering, Private Placement and Offering Proceeds Held in Trust

The registration statement filed in connection with the Company's initial public offering ("**Initial Public Offering**" or "**IPO**") was declared effective on July 28, 2021. On August 2, 2021, IMAQ consummated the IPO of 20,000,000 units (the "**Units**") at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, IMAQ consummated the sale of 714,400 units (the "**Private Units**"), at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement transaction with Content Creation Media LLC, IMAQ's prior sponsor (the "**Prior Sponsor**"), generating gross proceeds of $7,144,000.

On August 6, 2021, in connection with the underwriters' exercise in full of their option to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, we consummated the sale of an additional 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the exercise of the over-allotment option, we consummated the sale of an additional 82,500 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement to the Prior Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $825,000. The Private Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.

After deducting the underwriting discounts, offering expenses and commissions from the initial public offering and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $230,000,000 of the net proceeds from the initial public and the sale of the Private Units was deposited into IMAQ's trust account (the "**Trust Account**"), which was 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 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by use, until the earlier of (i) the consummation of a business combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account.

Extensions of the Time to Consummate the Business Combination and Related Redemptions

Initially, the Company was required to complete its initial business combination transaction by August 2, 2022, which was 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the "Initial Combination Period"). On July 27, 2022, at a special meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "**July 2022 Special Meeting**"), the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Company's investment management trust agreement, dated as of July 28, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "**Trustee**"), allowing the Company to extend the Initial Combination Period two times for an additional three months each time, or from August 2, 2022 to February 2, 2023 by depositing into the Trust Account $350,000 for each three-month extension. In connection with the proposal, the Company's public stockholders had the right to redeem their shares of common stock for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two days prior to such stockholder vote. Public stockholders holding 20,858,105 shares of the Company's common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.03 per share.

On July 26, 2022, the extension payment of $350,000 was deposited by the Prior Sponsor into the Company's Trust Account to extend the August 2, 2022, deadline to November 2, 2022.

On October 28, 2022, a second extension payment of $350,000 was deposited by the Prior Sponsor into the Company's Trust Account to extend the November 2, 2022, deadline to February 2, 2023.

On January 27, 2023, at a special meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "**January 2023 Special Meeting**"), stockholders approved to extend the deadline by which IMAQ must consummate an initial business combination for an additional three (3) months, from February 2, 2023 to May 2, 2023, with an ability to further extend by three (3) additional one (1) month periods until August 2, 2023. In connection with the January 2023 Special Meeting, the Company's stockholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 168,777 shares of common stock at a redemption price of approximately $10.33 per share.

On February 3, 2023, the third extension payment of $385,541 was deposited by the Prior Sponsor into the Company's Trust Account to extend the February 2, 2023, deadline to May 2, 2023.

On June 1, 2023, a fourth partial extension payment of $128,513 was deposited by the Prior Sponsor into the Company's Trust Account to extend the May 2, 2023, deadline to August 2, 2023.

On June 23, 2023, the fifth partial extension payment of $128,513 was deposited by the Company into the Company's Trust Account to extend the May 2, 2023, deadline to August 2, 2023.

On July 11, 2023, the sixth partial extension payment of $128,513 was deposited by the Company into the Company's Trust Account to extend the May 2, 2023, deadline to August 2, 2023. On July 31, 2023, IMAQ held a special meeting of stockholders (the "**July 2023 Special Meeting**"). As approved by its stockholders at the July 2023 Special Meeting, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**July 2023 Charter Amendment**") which became effective upon filing. The July 2023 Charter Amendment changed the date by which IMAQ must consummate a business combination for twelve (12) additional one (1) month periods from August 2, 2023, to August 2, 2024 (i.e., for a total period of time ending 36 months from the consummation of its initial public offering. In connection with the stockholders' vote at the July 2023 Special Meeting, 63,395 shares of common stock were tendered for redemption. On July 31, 2023, following the stockholder approval, the Company filed the July 2023 Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

On July 31, 2023, at a special meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "**July 2023 Special Meeting**"), stockholders approved to extend the deadline by which IMAQ must consummate an initial business combination for twelve (12) additional one (1) month periods from August 2, 2023, to August 2, 2024 (i.e., for a total period of time ending 36 months from the consummation of its initial public offering). In connection with the July 2023 Special Meeting, the Company's public stockholders holding 63,395 shares of the Company's common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.89 per share.

The Company has made the monthly deposit into the Trust Account of $128,513 for the monthly extension, from August 2, 2023 until January 2, 2024.

On January 2, 2024, IMAQ held a special meeting of stockholders (the "**January 2024 Special Meeting**").

The January 2024 Charter Amendment extended the deadline by which IMAQ must consummate an initial business combination for twelve (12) additional one (1) month periods from January 2, 2024 to January 2, 2025 provided that, in connection with each one-month extension, a deposit of $20,000 is made into the Trust Account established in connection with the Company's initial public offering. Stockholders also approved an amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**NTA Charter Amendment**") to expand the methods by which the Company may avoid being deemed a "penny stock" under the Rule 419 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Stockholders approved the proposal to allow the Company to undertake an initial business combination with any entity with its principal business operations in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). Stockholders also approved the Director Proposal to elect one Class I director to the Company's board of directors until the expiration of his or her term or until his or her respective successor has been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death.

Sources of Potential Business Combination Targets

 

We anticipate completing the VCI Business Combination. In the event, however, we do not complete the VCI Business Combination, we believe that the operational and transactional experience of our management team and their respective affiliates and related entities and the relationships they have developed as a result of such experience, will provide us with a number of potential alternative business combination targets. We believe that these networks of relationships and this experience will provide us with important sources of opportunities. In addition, we anticipate that target business candidates may be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources, including investment market participants, private equity funds and large business enterprises seeking to divest noncore assets or divisions.

Our acquisition criteria, due diligence processes and value creation methods are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of the VCI Business Combination or any other potential business combination may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. Our ability to consummate the VCI Business Combination or any alternative business combination, or the operations of a target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected by factors beyond our control.

 

Other Acquisition Considerations

If we do not complete the VCI Business Combination, we are not prohibited from pursuing an alternative initial business combination with a business combination target that is affiliated with our Prior Sponsor, officers or directors (or their respective affiliates or related entities) or making the acquisition through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with our sponsor, officers or directors (or their respective affiliates or related entities). In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our Prior Sponsor, officers or directors (or their respective affiliates or related entities), we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. We are not required to obtain such an opinion in any other context.

Our Prior Sponsor, officers, and directors have agreed that we will have until July 2, 2026 (or until January 2, 2027 if we fully extend the date to consummate a business combination) to complete our initial business combination (the "**Combination Period**"). If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the 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 IMAQ to pay income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, 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 IMAQ's remaining stockholders and their board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to IMAQ's 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 public warrants, public rights or private placement warrants. The warrants and rights will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Combination Period.

Unless we complete our initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our Prior Sponsor, officers or directors (or their respective affiliates or related entities), we or a committee of independent directors, are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. We are not required to obtain such an opinion in any other context. If no opinion is obtained, our stockholders will be relying on the judgment of our Board of Directors, who will determine fair market value based on standards generally accepted by the financial community. Such standards used will be disclosed in our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, related to our initial business combination.

Members of our management team may directly or indirectly own our Class A ordinary shares and/or private placement units following the IPO, and, accordingly, may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination. Further, each of our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination.

In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if:

● the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;

● the opportunity is within the corporation's line of business; and

● it would not be fair to the corporation and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation.

Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. Furthermore, our certificate of incorporation provides that the doctrine of corporate opportunity will not apply with respect to any of our officers or directors in circumstances where the application of the doctrine would conflict with any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations they may have. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, our officers and directors (other than our independent directors) have agreed to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire a target business, until the earlier of: (1) our execution of a merger agreement in connection with an initial business combination and (2) July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if we fully extend the date to consummate a business combination). This agreement is, however, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations such officer or director may from time to time have to another entity. Accordingly, if any of them becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity.

Our Prior Sponsor, Buyer, officers and directors are, and may become a sponsor, an officer or director of other special purpose acquisition companies with a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding that, such officers and directors will continue to have a pre-existing fiduciary obligation to us, and we will, therefore, have priority over any special purpose acquisition companies they subsequently join.

Redemption Rights for Holders of the Public Shares

The Company will provide the holders (the "**public stockholders**") of the shares of common stock included in the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (the "**Public Shares**") 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 $10.00 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 income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company's rights or warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("**FASB**") Accounting Standards Codification ("**ASC**") Topic 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("**ASC 480**").

Automatic Dissolution and Subsequent Liquidation of the Trust Account if No Business Combination

If IMAQ does not consummate the Business Combination and fails to consummate an initial business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), then, pursuant to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, IMAQ will be required to dissolve and liquidate as soon as reasonably practicable, unless IMAQ seeks stockholder approval to amend and restate IMAQ's certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination. As a result, this has the same effect as if IMAQ had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under Delaware law. Accordingly, no vote would be required from the IMAQ stockholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation. If IMAQ is unable to consummate the Business Combination within the Combination Period, it 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 IMAQ to pay income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, 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 IMAQ's remaining stockholders and their board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to IMAQ's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Prior Sponsor has agreed 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 by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. In the event of its dissolution and liquidation, the IMAQ warrants and rights will expire and will be worthless.

The proceeds deposited in the trust account could, however, become subject to the claims of IMAQ's creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of its public stockholders. IMAQ cannot guarantee that the actual per-share redemption amount received by stockholders will not be substantially less than $10.00. Under Section 281(b) of the DGCL, IMAQ's plan of dissolution must provide for all claims against it 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 IMAQ makes any distribution of its remaining assets to its stockholders. While IMAQ intends to pay such amounts, if any, IMAQ cannot guarantee that it will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors' claims.

Although IMAQ will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which IMAQ does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest and claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of IMAQ's 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 IMAQ's 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, IMAQ's 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 more beneficial to it than the alternative.

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 IMAQ and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. The Prior Sponsor had agreed that it will be liable to IMAQ if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to IMAQ, or a prospective target business with which IMAQ has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below (i) $10.00 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 income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account and except as to any claims under IMAQ's indemnity of the underwriters of IMAQ's initial public offering 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, then the Prior Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. IMAQ has not independently verified whether the Prior Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Prior Sponsor's only assets are securities of IMAQ. IMAQ has not asked the Prior Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations. Therefore, IMAQ cannot guarantee that the Prior Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the trust account, the funds available for IMAQ's initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share. In such event, IMAQ may not be able to complete its initial business combination, and IMAQ's stockholders would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of their public shares. None of IMAQ's officers will indemnify IMAQ 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) $10.00 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 income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, and the Prior Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, IMAQ's independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Prior Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While IMAQ expects that its independent directors would take legal action on its behalf against the Prior Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to IMAQ, it is possible that IMAQ's 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. IMAQ has not asked the Prior Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations and IMAQ cannot guarantee that the Prior Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. Accordingly, IMAQ cannot guarantee that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be less than $10.00 per public share.

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 IMAQ's trust account distributed to its public stockholders upon the redemption of its public shares in the event IMAQ does not complete its business combination by July 2, 2026 (unless extended) 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.

Furthermore, if the pro rata portion of IMAQ's trust account distributed to its public stockholders upon the redemption of its public shares in the event IMAQ does not complete its business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), is not considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law and such redemption distribution is deemed to be unlawful, 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 IMAQ is unable to complete its business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), IMAQ 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 IMAQ to pay income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, 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 IMAQ's remaining stockholders and their board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to IMAQ's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. As such, IMAQ's stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of its stockholders may extend well beyond the third anniversary of such date.

Because IMAQ does not comply with Section 280, Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires IMAQ to adopt a plan, based on facts known to IMAQ at such time that will provide for its payment of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against it within the subsequent 10 years. However, because IMAQ is a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and its operations are limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from its vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, etc.) or prospective target businesses. Pursuant to the obligation contained in IMAQ's underwriting agreement dated July 28, 2021, IMAQ required that all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which it does business execute agreements with it 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 IMAQ are significantly limited and the likelihood that any claim that would result in any liability extending to the trust account is remote. Further, the Prior Sponsor may be liable only to the extent necessary to ensure that the amounts in the trust account are not reduced below (i) $10.00 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 income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, and will not be liable as to any claims under IMAQ's indemnity of the underwriters of the initial public offering 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 Prior Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

If IMAQ files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in IMAQ's bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of its stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the trust account, IMAQ cannot guarantee that it will be able to return $10.00 per share to its public stockholders. Additionally, if IMAQ files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against IMAQ 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 IMAQ's stockholders. Furthermore, IMAQ's board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to its creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and IMAQ to claims of punitive damages, by paying public stockholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. IMAQ cannot guarantee that claims will not be brought against it for these reasons.

IMAQ's public stockholders will be entitled to receive funds from the trust account only (i) in the event of the redemption of its public shares if IMAQ does not complete its business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), subject to applicable law, (ii) (a) in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if IMAQ has not consummated an initial business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), or (b) completion of an initial business combination, and then only in connection with those public shares that such stockholder properly) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders' rights or pre-initial business combination activity or (iii) IMAQ's elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described in the final prospectus IMAQ filed with the SEC on July 29, 2021. In no other circumstances will a stockholder has any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account.

Each of IMAQ's initial stockholders has agreed to waive its rights to participate in any liquidation of the Trust Account or other assets with respect to any shares of IMAQ common stock they hold.

PCAOB Developments

We are a blank check company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware with our office located in Miami. Our auditor, Mercurius & Associates LLP ("**Mercurius**"), headquartered in New Delhi, India, is an independent registered public accounting firm registered with the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("**PCAOB**") and is subject to laws in the United States in relation to PCAOB's applicable professional standards.

VCI is located in Vietnam. However, if we were to pursue an alternative business combination with an entity with its principal business operations in China (including Hong Kong and Macau) (a "**China-based target**"), we may be subject to Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (the "**HFCAA**") and related regulations if we pursue an opportunity with a foreign company. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act ("**AHFCAA**"), which, if signed into law, would amend the HFCAA and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer's securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three consecutive years. On December 29, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act was signed into law by President Biden. The Consolidated Appropriations Act contained, among other things, an identical provision to the AHFCAA, which reduces the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCA Act from three years to two years. For instance, the HFCAA would restrict our ability to consummate a business combination with a target business unless that business met certain standards of the PCAOB and would require delisting of a company from U.S. national securities exchanges if the PCAOB is unable to inspect its public accounting firm for two consecutive years. The HFCAA also requires public companies to disclose, among other things, whether they are owned or controlled by a foreign government, specifically, those based in China. We may not be able to consummate a business combination with a favored target business due to these laws.

The documentation we may be required to submit to the SEC proving certain beneficial ownership requirements and establishing that we are not owned or controlled by a foreign government in the event that we use a foreign public accounting firm not subject to inspection by the PCAOB or where the PCAOB is unable to completely inspect or investigate our accounting practices or financial statements because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction could be onerous and time consuming to prepare. The HFCAA mandates the SEC to identify issuers of SEC-registered securities whose audited financial reports are prepared by an accounting firm that the PCAOB is unable to inspect due to restrictions imposed by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction where the audits are performed. If such identified issuer's auditor cannot be inspected by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, the trading of such issuer's securities on any U.S. national securities exchanges, as well as any over-the-counter trading in the U.S., will be prohibited.

Future developments in respect of increased U.S. regulatory access to audit information are uncertain, as the legislative developments are subject to the legislative process and the regulatory developments are subject to the rule-making process and other administrative procedures.

Other developments in U.S. laws and regulatory environment, including but not limited to executive orders such as Executive Order (E.O.) 13959, "Addressing the Threat from Securities Investments That Finance Communist Chinese Military Companies," may further restrict our ability to complete a business combination with certain China-based businesses.

Enforceability of Civil Liability

All of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States. Further, it is uncertain if any officers and directors of the post-combination entity will be located inside the Unites States. As a result, it may be difficult, or in some cases not possible, for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights, to effect service of process upon our directors or officers (prior to or after the business combination) or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties on our directors and officers under United States laws.

Management Operating and Investment Experience

We believe that our executive officers possess the experience, skills and contacts necessary to source, evaluate, and execute an attractive business combination. See the section titled "Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance" for information on the experience of our officers and directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our officers and directors are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to our affairs. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for the business combination and the stage of the business combination process the company is in. Accordingly, once a suitable target business to consummate our initial business combination with has been located, management will spend more time investigating such target business and negotiating and processing the business combination (and consequently spend more time on our affairs) than had been spent prior to locating a suitable target business. We do not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of our initial business combination. The past successes of our executive officers and directors do not guarantee that we will successfully consummate an initial business combination.

As more fully discussed in "Conflict of Interest," all of our officers and directors currently have certain pre-existing fiduciary duties or contractual obligations. As a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. Our certificate of incorporation provides that the doctrine of corporate opportunity will not apply with respect to any of our officers or directors in circumstances where the application of the doctrine would conflict with any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations they may have. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, our officers and directors (other than our independent directors) have agreed to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire a target business, until the earlier of: (1) our consummation of a merger agreement in connection with an initial business combination and (2) July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if we exercise the option to extend the date to consummate a business combination). This agreement is, however, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations such officer or director may from time to time have to another entity. Accordingly, if any of them becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity.

Emerging Growth Company Status and Other Information

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As such, we are 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 of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our 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 our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our 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. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We 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 date of the IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to "emerging growth company" shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Additionally, we are 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. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter, or (2) our annual revenues equaled or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter.

Conflict of Interest

In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if:

● the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;

● the opportunity is within the corporation's line of business; and

● it would not be fair to the corporation and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation.

As a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. Our certificate of incorporation provides that the doctrine of corporate opportunity will not apply with respect to any of our officers or directors in circumstances where the application of the doctrine would conflict with any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations they may have. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, our officers and directors (other than our independent directors) have agreed to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire a target business, until the earlier of: (1) our execution of a merger agreement in connection with an initial business combination and (2) July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if we exercise the option to extend the date to consummate a business combination). This agreement is, however, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations such officer or director may from time to time have to another entity. Accordingly, if any of them becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity.

Competition

In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for our initial business combination, we may encounter competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including other special purpose acquisition companies, private equity groups and leveraged buyout funds, public companies and operating businesses seeking strategic acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Moreover, many of these competitors possess similar or greater financial technical, human and other resources than us. Our ability to acquire a target business will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business. Furthermore, our obligation to pay cash in connection with our public stockholders who exercise their redemption rights may reduce the resources available to us for our initial business combination and our outstanding private placement units, and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses. Either of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating an initial business combination.

The following also may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses:

● our obligation to seek stockholder approval of a business combination or obtain the necessary financial information to be sent to stockholders in connection with such business combination may delay or prevent the completion of a transaction;

● our obligation to register the resale of the Founder Shares, as well as the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any securities issued to our initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (if any); and

● the impact on the target business' assets as a result of unknown liabilities under the securities laws or otherwise depending on developments involving us prior to the consummation of a business combination.

Any of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination. If we succeed in effecting a business combination, there will be, in all likelihood, intense competition from competitors of the target business. We cannot assure you that, subsequent to a business combination, we will have the resources or ability to compete effectively.

IMAQ does not have any other employees.

Facilities

IMAQ's executive offices are located at 1221 Brickell Avenue, Miami, FL and its telephone number is 786-432-7588. IMAQ considers its current office space adequate for its current operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, in addition to the risk factors disclosed in the Risk Factors section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**SEC**") and in the Company's prospectus filed with the SEC on July 29, 2021, the Company has identified the below-listed additional risk factors. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

*We may undertake our Business Combination with an entity or business which is based in a foreign country and the laws and regulations of such foreign countries may not afford U.S. investors or regulatory agencies access to information normally available to them with respect to U.S. based entities.*

In November 2020, the SEC Staff issued guidance regarding certain risks and considerations that should be considered by investors regarding foreign entities, specifically the limited ability of U.S. investors and regulatory agencies to rely upon or obtain information from foreign based entities, specifically China based entities, under the laws and regulations of such foreign countries. As stated by the SEC Staff, "Although China-based Issuers that access the U.S. public capital markets generally have the same disclosure obligations and legal responsibilities as other non-U.S. issuers, the Commission's ability to promote and enforce high-quality disclosure standards for China-based Issuers may be materially limited. As a result, there is substantially greater risk that their disclosures may be incomplete or misleading. In addition, in the event of investor harm, investors generally will have substantially less access to recourse, in comparison to U.S. domestic companies and foreign issuers in other jurisdictions." Among other potential issues and risks cited by the SEC Staff, the SEC Staff identified restrictions in China which restricted the PCAOB's ability to inspect audit work and practices of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms in China and on the PCAOB's ability to inspect audit work with respect to China-based issuer audits by PCAOB-registered public accounting firms in Hong Kong.

Further, current laws and regulations in China as well as other potential target countries, can limit or restrict investigations and similar activities by U.S. regulatory agencies such as the SEC to gather information regarding the securities and other activities of issuers based in the foreign countries where such laws or regulations exist. According to Article 177 of the newly amended PRC Securities Law which became effective in March 2020 (the "**Article 177**"), the securities regulatory authority of the PRC State Council may collaborate with securities regulatory authorities of other countries or regions in order to monitor and oversee cross border securities activities. Article 177 further provides that overseas securities regulatory authorities are not allowed to carry out investigation and evidence collection directly within the territory of the PRC, and that any Chinese entities and individuals are not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to overseas agencies without prior consent of the securities regulatory authority of the PRC State Council and the competent departments of the PRC State Council. Investors should be aware that the U.S. Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which requires that the PCAOB be permitted to inspect an issuer's public accounting firm within three years, may result in the delisting of the operating company in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect the firm.

We have entered into a merger agreement with the Target Group, a Vietnamese ethanol production company, and are currently in the process of finalizing the business combination. It is important to note that we may pursue any potential target businesses in foreign jurisdictions, including entities based in China, if the merger with the Target Group is terminated. Investors should be aware of risks related to the ability to obtain information and conduct investigations and be afforded protections by U.S. based agencies such as the SEC related to the business combination with the Target Group or any other target business in a foreign country, and consider such risks prior to investing in our securities.

*If the PRC government deems that the contractual arrangements in relation to a potential China-based Target, and the VIE, do not comply with PRC regulatory restrictions on foreign investment in the relevant industries, or if these regulations or the interpretation of existing regulations change in the future, we could be subject to severe penalties or be forced to relinquish our interests in those operations.*

We are a company with no operations of our own. Although we have not (nor has anyone on our behalf), directly or indirectly, had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a transaction with a China-based target, our initial business combination target company may include a China-based target which might require a VIE structure. The China-based Target, through contractual arrangements, exercises effective control over the operating activities that most impact the economic performance, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity.

As a result, through such contractual arrangements with the VIE and its shareholders, we may become the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, therefore, may consolidate the financial results of the VIE in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS. In that case, following the consummation of a business combination with a China-based Target, our securities would be securities of an offshore holding company instead of shares of the VIE in China.

We would rely on WFOE's contractual arrangements with the VIE and its shareholders to operate the business. These contractual arrangements may not be as effective as direct ownership in respect of our relationship with the VIE. Under the contractual arrangements, as a legal matter, if the VIE or any of its shareholders executing the VIE Agreements fails to perform its, his or her respective obligations under the contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs and resources to enforce such arrangements, and rely on legal remedies available under PRC laws, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which we cannot assure you will be effective. For example, if shareholders of a VIE were to refuse to transfer their equity interests in such VIE to us or our designated persons when we exercise the purchase option pursuant to the contractual arrangements, we may have to take a legal action to compel them to fulfil their contractual obligations.

If (i) the applicable PRC authorities invalidate the contractual arrangements for violation of PRC laws, rules and regulations, (ii) any VIE or its shareholders terminate the contractual arrangements, (iii) any VIE or its shareholders fail to perform its/his/her obligations under the contractual arrangements, or (iv) if these regulations change or are interpreted differently in the future, the PRC target company's business operations in China would be materially and adversely affected, and the value of your securities would substantially decrease or even become worthless. Further, if we fail to renew the contractual arrangements upon their expiration, we would not be able to continue the business operations unless the then current PRC law allows us to directly operate businesses in China.

In addition, if any VIE or all or part of its assets would become subject to liens or rights of third-party creditors, we may be unable to continue some or all of our business activities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of the variable interest entities undergoes a voluntary or involuntary liquidation proceeding, its shareholders or unrelated third-party creditors may claim rights to some or all of these assets, thereby hindering our ability to operate our business, which could materially and adversely affect our business and our ability to generate revenues.

All of the contractual arrangements will be governed by PRC law and provided for the resolution of disputes through arbitration in the PRC. Accordingly, these contracts will be interpreted in accordance with PRC laws and any disputes will be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in some other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit our ability to enforce the contractual arrangements. In the event we are unable to enforce the contractual arrangements, we may not be able to exercise effective control over our China-based Target's operating entities that most impact the economic performance, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards for the purpose of consolidating the financial results of the VIE in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS (as discussed above) and we may be precluded from operating our business, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Although based on industry practices, VIE contractual arrangements among WFOE, the VIE and its shareholders governed by PRC laws are valid, binding and enforceable, and will not result in any violation of PRC laws or regulations currently in effect, however, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC laws, regulations and rules. Accordingly, the PRC regulatory authorities may ultimately take a view that is contrary to the accepted industry practices with respect to VIE contractual arrangements. In addition, it is uncertain whether any new PRC laws or regulations relating to VIE structures will be adopted or if adopted, what they would provide. PRC government authorities may deem that foreign ownership is directly or indirectly involved in the VIE's shareholding structure. If our potential corporate structure and contractual arrangements are deemed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or MIIT, or the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, or other regulators having competent authority to be illegal, either in whole or in part, we may lose control of the consolidated VIE and have to modify such structure to comply with regulatory requirements. However, there can be no assurance that we can achieve this without material disruption to the China-based Target's business. Furthermore, if we consummate a business combination with a China-based Target, and we or the VIE is found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws or regulations, or fail to obtain or maintain any of the required permits or approvals, the relevant PRC regulatory authorities would have broad discretion to take action in dealing with such violations or failures, including, without limitation:

● revoking the business license and/or operating licenses of WFOE or the VIE;

● discontinuing or placing restrictions or onerous conditions on our operations through any transactions among WFOE, the VIE and its subsidiaries;

● imposing fines, confiscating the income from WFOE, the VIE or its subsidiaries, or imposing other requirements with which we or the VIE may not be able to comply;

● placing restrictions on the VIE's right to collect revenues;

● requiring us to restructure our ownership structure or operations, including terminating the contractual arrangements with the VIE and deregistering the equity pledges of the VIE, which in turn would affect our ability to consolidate, exercises effective control over the operating activities that most impact the economic performance, bears the risks of, or enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity; or

● taking other regulatory or enforcement actions against us that could be harmful to our business

The imposition of any of these penalties will result in a material and adverse effect on our potential ability to conduct the business. In addition, it is unclear what impact the PRC government actions will have on us and on our ability to consolidate the financial results of the VIE in our consolidated financial statements, if the PRC government authorities were to find our potential corporate structure and contractual arrangements to be in violation of PRC laws and regulations. If the imposition of any of these government actions causes us to lose our right to direct the activities of the VIE or our right to receive substantially all the economic benefits and residual returns from the VIE and we are not able to restructure our ownership structure and operations in a timely and satisfactory manner, we will no longer be able to consolidate the financial results of the VIE in our consolidated financial statements. Either of these results, or any other significant penalties that might be imposed on us in this event, it will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and our securities post business combination may decline in value or be worthless.

 

*The VIE Agreements under a VIE structure may not be as effective as direct ownership in respect of the relationship of the post-combination entity with the VIE, and thus, the post-combination entity may incur substantial costs to enforce the terms of the VIE Agreements, which the post-combination entity may not be able to enforce at all.*

The VIE Agreements may not be as effective as direct ownership in respect of the relationship of the post-combination entity with the VIE. For example, the VIE and its shareholders could breach the VIE Agreements by, among other things, failing to conduct their operations in an acceptable manner or taking other actions that are detrimental to the interests of the post-combination entity. If the post-combination entity had direct ownership of the VIE, the post-combination entity would be able to exercise its rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the board of directors of the VIE, which in turn could implement changes, subject to any applicable fiduciary obligations, at the management and operational level. However, under the VIE Agreements, the post-combination entity rely on the performance by the VIE and its shareholders of their obligations under the contracts to consolidate the financial results of the VIE as primary beneficiary. The shareholders of the VIE may not act in the best interests of the post-combination entity or may not perform their obligations under these VIE Agreements. Such risks exist throughout the period in which the post-combination entity intends to consolidate the financial results of the VIE through the VIE Agreements.

If the VIE or its shareholders fail to perform their respective obligations under the VIE Agreements, the post-combination entity may have to incur substantial costs and expend additional resources to enforce such VIE Agreements. For example, if the shareholders of the VIE refuse to transfer their equity interest in the VIE to the post-combination entity or its designee if the post-combination entity exercises the purchase option pursuant to the VIE Agreements, or if they otherwise act in bad faith toward the post-combination entity, then the post-combination entity may have to take legal actions to compel them to perform their contractual obligations. In addition, if any third parties claim any interest in such shareholders' equity interests in the VIE, the post-combination entity's ability to foreclose the share pledge according to the VIE Agreements may be impaired. If these or other disputes between the shareholders of the VIE and third parties were to impair the post-combination entity's relationship with the VIE, the post-combination entity's ability to consolidate the financial results of the VIE as primary beneficiary would be affected, which would in turn result in a material and adverse effect on the business, operations and financial condition.

 

*If we effect our initial business combination with a company with a VIE structure, any failure by the VIE or its shareholders to perform their obligations under the VIE Agreements would have a material and adverse effect on the post-combination entity's business.*

In cases where we effect an initial business combination with a company with a VIE structure, the shareholders of the VIE are referred as its nominee shareholders because although they remain the holders of equity interests on record in the VIE, pursuant to the terms of the relevant power of attorney, such shareholders have irrevocably authorized the individual appointed by the WFOE to exercise their rights as a shareholder of the relevant VIE. If the VIE, or its shareholders fail to perform their respective obligations under the VIE Agreements, the post-combination entity may have to incur substantial costs and expend additional resources to enforce such arrangements. The post-combination entity may also have to rely on legal remedies under PRC laws, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which the post-combination entity cannot assure you will be effective under PRC laws. For example, if the shareholders of the VIE were to refuse to transfer their equity interest in the VIE to the post-combination entity or its designee if the post-combination entity exercises the purchase option pursuant to the VIE Agreements, or if they were otherwise to act in bad faith toward us, then we may have to take legal actions to compel them to perform their contractual obligations.

All of these VIE Agreements may be governed by and interpreted in accordance with PRC law, and disputes arising from these VIE Agreements may be resolved in court or through arbitration in China. Accordingly, these contracts will be interpreted in accordance with PRC laws and any disputes will be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal system in the PRC is not as developed as in some other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit our ability to enforce these VIE Agreements. Meanwhile, there are very few precedents and little formal guidance as to how VIE Agreements in the context of a VIE should be interpreted or enforced under PRC laws. There remain significant uncertainties regarding the ultimate outcome of such arbitration should legal action become necessary. In addition, under PRC laws, rulings by arbitrators are final and parties cannot appeal arbitration results in court unless such rulings are revoked or determined unenforceable by a competent court. If the losing parties fail to carry out the arbitration awards within a prescribed time limit, the prevailing parties may only enforce the arbitration awards in PRC courts through arbitration award recognition proceedings, which would require additional expenses and delay. In the event that the post-combination entity is unable to enforce these VIE Agreements, or if the post-combination entity suffers significant delay or other obstacles in the process of enforcing these VIE Agreements, the post-combination entity may not be able to consolidate the financial results of the VIE in its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS as primary beneficiary for accounting purposes, and the post-combination entity's ability to conduct its business may be negatively affected.

 

*PRC regulations relating to offshore investment activities by PRC residents may limit the post-combination entity's ability to inject capital in its Chinese subsidiaries, if any, and Chinese subsidiaries' ability to change their registered capital or distribute profits to the post-combination entity or otherwise expose the post-combination entity or its PRC resident beneficial owners to liability and penalties under PRC laws.*

In July 2014, The State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the PRC, or SAFE, promulgated the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents' Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment Through Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 37 to replace the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Residents' Financing and Roundtrip Investment Through Offshore Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 75, which ceased to be effective upon the promulgation of SAFE Circular 37. SAFE Circular 37 requires PRC residents (including PRC individuals and PRC corporate entities as well as foreign individuals that are deemed as PRC residents for foreign exchange administration purpose) to register with SAFE or its local branches in connection with their direct or indirect offshore investment activities. SAFE Circular 37 is applicable to the shareholders of post-combination entity who are PRC residents and may be applicable to any offshore acquisitions that we make in the future.

Under SAFE Circular 37, PRC residents who make, or have prior to the implementation of SAFE Circular 37 made, direct or indirect investments in offshore special purpose vehicles, or SPVs, must register such investments with SAFE or its local branches. In addition, any PRC resident who is a direct or indirect shareholder of an SPV, must update its filed registration with the local branch of SAFE with respect to that SPV, to reflect any material change. If any PRC shareholder of such SPV fails to make the required registration or to update the previously filed registration, the subsidiary of such SPV in China may be prohibited from distributing its profits or the proceeds from any capital reduction, share transfer or liquidation to the SPV, and the SPV may also be prohibited from making additional capital contributions into its subsidiary in China. On February 13, 2015, SAFE promulgated a Notice on Further Simplifying and Improving Foreign Exchange Administration Policy on Direct Investment, or SAFE Notice 13, which became effective on June 1, 2015. Under SAFE Notice 13, applications for foreign exchange registration of inbound foreign direct investments and outbound overseas direct investments, including those required under SAFE Circular 37, will be filed with qualified banks instead of SAFE or its branches. The qualified banks will directly examine the applications and accept registrations under the supervision of SAFE.

We cannot provide assurance that the post-combination entity's shareholders that are PRC residents comply with all of the requirements under SAFE Circular 37 or other related rules. Failure or inability of our PRC resident shareholders to comply with the registration procedures set forth in these regulations may subject us to fines and legal sanctions, restrict our cross-border investment activities, limit the ability of our wholly foreign-owned subsidiary in China to distribute dividends and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to us, and we may also be prohibited from injecting additional capital into the subsidiary. Moreover, we and the post-combination entity may now know the identities of all PRC residents holding direct or indirect interest in the post-combination entity. Any failure or inability by such individuals to comply with the various foreign exchange registration requirements described above could result in liability under PRC law for circumventing applicable foreign exchange restrictions and may subject the post-combination entity to fines or legal sanctions, restrict its cross-border investment activities, and limit any PRC subsidiary's ability to distribute dividends to us. As a result, the post-combination entity's business operations and its ability to distribute profits to you could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, as the interpretation and implementation of foreign exchange regulations continue to evolve, it is unclear how these regulations, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant government authorities. For example, if we decide to acquire a China-based Target, we cannot assure you that we or the owners of such company, as the case may be, will be able to obtain the necessary approvals or complete the necessary filings and registrations required by the foreign exchange regulations. In addition, such post-combination entity may be subject to a more stringent review and approval process with respect to the post-combination entity's foreign exchange activities, such as remittance of dividends and foreign-currency-denominated borrowings, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. This may restrict our ability to implement our acquisition strategy and could adversely affect our business and prospects.

 

*Compliance with the PRC Antitrust law may limit our ability to effect our Business Combination.*

The PRC Antitrust Law became effective on August 1, 2008. The government authorities in charge of antitrust matters in China are the Antitrust Commission and other antitrust authorities under the State Council. The PRC Antitrust Law regulates (1) monopoly agreements, including decisions or actions in concert that preclude or impede competition, entered into by business operators; (2) abuse of dominant market position by business operators; and (3) concentration of business operators that may have the effect of precluding or impeding competition. To implement the PRC Antitrust Law, in 2008, the State Council formulated the regulations that require filing of concentration of business operators, pursuant to which concentration of business operators refers to (1) merger with other business operators; (2) gaining control over other business operators through acquisition of equity interest or assets of other business operators; and (3) gaining control over other business operators through exerting influence on other business operators through contracts or other means. In 2009, the Ministry of Commerce, to which the Antitrust Commission is affiliated, promulgated the Measures for Filing of Concentration of Business Operators (amended by the Guidelines for Filing of Concentration of Business Operators in 2014), which set forth the criteria of concentration and the requirement of miscellaneous documents for the purpose of filing. The Business Combination we contemplate may be considered the concentration of business operators, and to the extent required by the Antitrust Law and the criteria established by the State Council, we must file with the antitrust authority under the PRC State Council prior to conducting the contemplated Business Combination. If the antitrust authority decides not to further investigate whether the contemplated Business Combination has the effect of precluding or impeding competition or fails to make a decision within 30 days from receipt of relevant materials, we may proceed to consummate the contemplated Business Combination. If antitrust authority decides to prohibit the contemplated Business Combination after further investigation, we must terminate such Business Combination and would then be forced to either attempt to complete a new Business Combination or we would be required to return any amounts which were held in the trust account to our shareholders. When we evaluate a potential Business Combination, we will consider the need to comply with the Antitrust Law and other relevant regulations which may limit our ability to effect an acquisition or may result in our modifying or not pursuing a particular transaction. The approval process may take a period longer than we expect before we enter into a definitive agreement with a target company, we may be unable to complete a Business Combination by the Termination Date.

*Exchange controls that exist in the PRC may restrict or prevent us from using the proceeds of the IPO to acquire a China-based Target and limit our ability to utilize our cash flow effectively following our Business Combination.*

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 Circular 19, effective on June 1, 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, or SAFE Circular 142, the Notice from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Relevant Issues Concerning Strengthening the Administration of Foreign Exchange Businesses, or Circular 59, and the Circular on Further Clarification and Regulation of the Issues Concerning the Administration of Certain Capital Account Foreign Exchange Businesses, or Circular 45. According to 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 Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise to be used for equity investments within the PRC, 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 the PRC 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 Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in 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 Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties.

As such, Circular 19 and Circular 16 may significantly limit our ability to transfer the proceeds of the IPO to a China-based Target and the use of such proceeds by a China-based Target.

In addition, following our Business Combination with a China-based Target, we will be subject to the PRC's rules and regulations on currency conversion. In the PRC, the SAFE regulates the conversion of the Renminbi into foreign currencies. Currently, FIEs are required to apply to the SAFE for "Foreign Exchange Registration Certificates for FIEs." Following our Business Combination, we will likely be an FIE as a result of our ownership structure. With such registration certificates, which need to be renewed annually, FIEs are allowed to open foreign currency accounts including a "basic account" and "capital account." Currency conversion within the scope of the "basic account," such as remittance of foreign currencies for payment of dividends, can be effected without requiring the approval of the SAFE. However, conversion of currency in the "capital account," including capital items such as direct investment, loans and securities, still require approval of the SAFE.

We cannot assure you the PRC regulatory authorities will not impose further restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi. Any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use the proceeds of the IPO in a Business Combination with a China-based Target and the use of our cash flow for the distribution of dividends to our stockholders or to fund operations we may have outside of the PRC. However, the funds held in our trust account are not held in China, they are held in U.S. dollars in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and therefore, we believe that stockholder redemption rights would not be impacted.

*Our Business Combination may be subject to national security review by the PRC government and we may have to spend additional resources and incur additional time delays to complete any such Business Combination or be prevented from pursuing certain investment opportunities.*

On February 3, 2011, the PRC government issued a Notice Concerning the Establishment of Security Review Procedure on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or Security Review Regulations, which became effective on March 5, 2011. The Security Review Regulations cover acquisitions by foreign investors of a broad range of PRC enterprises if such acquisitions could result in de facto control by foreign investors and the enterprises are relating to military, national defense, important agriculture products, important energy and natural resources, important infrastructures, important transportation services, key technologies and important equipment manufacturing. The scope of the review includes whether the acquisition will impact the national security, economic and social stability, and the research and development capabilities on key national security related technologies. Foreign investors should submit a security review application to the Department of Commerce for its initial review for contemplated acquisition. If the acquisition is considered to be within the scope of the Security Review Regulations, the Department of Commerce will transfer the application to a joint security review committee within five business days for further review. The joint security review committee, consisting of members from various PRC government agencies, will conduct a general review and seek comments from relevant government agencies. The joint security review committee may initiate a further special review and request the termination or restructuring of the contemplated acquisition if it determines that the acquisition will result in significant national security issue.

The Security Review Regulations will potentially subject a large number of mergers and acquisitions transactions by foreign investors in China to an additional layer of regulatory review. Currently, there is significant uncertainty as to the implication of the Security Review Regulations. Neither the Department of Commerce nor other PRC government agencies have issued any detailed rules for the implementation of the Security Review Regulations. If, for example, our potential Business Combination is with a China-based Target in any of the sensitive sectors identified above, the transaction will be subject to the Security Review Regulations, and we may have to spend additional resources and incur additional time delays to complete any such acquisition. There is no guarantee that we can receive such approval in a timely manner, and we may also be prevented from pursuing certain investment opportunities if the PRC government considers that the potential investments will result in a significant national security issue.

 

*Our Business Combination may be subject to a variety of PRC laws and other obligations regarding cybersecurity and data protection and we may have to spend additional resources and incur additional time delays to complete any such Business Combination or be prevented from pursuing certain investment opportunities.*

Our Business Combination may be subject to PRC laws relating to the collection, use, sharing, retention, security, and transfer of confidential and private information, such as personal information and other data. These laws continue to develop, and the PRC government may adopt other rules and restrictions in the future. Non-compliance could result in penalties or other significant legal liabilities.

Pursuant to the PRC Cybersecurity Law, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on November 7, 2016 and took effect on June 1, 2017, personal information and important data collected and generated by a critical information infrastructure operator in the course of its operations in China must be stored in China, and if a critical information infrastructure operator purchases internet products and services that affect or may affect national security, it should be subject to cybersecurity review by the CAC. Due to the lack of further interpretations, the exact scope of "critical information infrastructure operator" remains unclear.

On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People's Congress, or SCNPC, promulgated the PRC Data Security Law, which took effect in September 2021. The PRC Data Security Law imposes data security and privacy obligations on entities and individuals carrying out data activities, and introduces a data classification and hierarchical protection system based on the importance of data in economic and social development, and the degree of harm it will cause to national security, public interests, or legitimate rights and interests of individuals or organizations when such data is tampered with, destroyed, leaked, illegally acquired or used. The PRC Data Security Law also provides for a national security review procedure for data activities that may affect national security and imposes export restrictions on certain data and information. On August 20, 2021, the SCNPC adopted the Personal Information Protection Law, which came into force as of November 1, 2021. The Personal Information Protection Law includes the basic rules for personal information processing, the rules for cross-border provision of personal information, the rights of individuals in personal information processing activities, the obligations of personal information processors, and the legal responsibilities for illegal collection, processing, and use of personal information.

Recently, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Severe and Lawful Crackdown on Illegal Securities Activities, which was available to the public on July 6, 2021. These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies. These opinions proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems, to deal with the risks and incidents facing China-based overseas-listed companies and the demand for cybersecurity and data privacy protection. On December 28, 2021, the CAC, jointly with 12 departments under the State Council, promulgated the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, which became effective on February 15, 2022. According to the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services, and data processors carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct cyber security review. An operator, including operators of critical information infrastructure and data processors, who controls more than 1 million users' personal information must report to the Cyber Security Review Office for a cybersecurity review if it intends to be listed in a foreign country.

Certain internet platforms in China have been reportedly subject to heightened regulatory scrutiny in relation to cybersecurity matters. As of the date hereof, we have not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that we file for a cybersecurity review. As a result, it will not affect our process of searching for a business combination target until further certainty in the interpretation and enforcement of relevant PRC cybersecurity laws and regulations. However, if we or the post-combination entity following a Business Combination are deemed to be a critical information infrastructure operator or a company that is engaged in data processing and holds personal information of more than one million users, we could be subject to PRC cybersecurity review.

If, for example, our potential Business Combination is with a China-based Target and if the enacted version of the aforementioned laws and regulations mandate clearance of cybersecurity review and other specific actions to be completed by the target business, we may face uncertainties as to whether such clearance can be timely obtained, or at all, and incur additional time delays to complete any such acquisition. Cybersecurity review could also result in negative publicity with respect to our Business Combination and diversion of our managerial and financial resources. There is no guarantee that we can receive such approval in a timely manner, and we may also be prevented from pursuing certain investment opportunities if the PRC government considers that the potential investments will result in a significant national security issue. These rules could result in us not being able to acquire a potential target in the PRC, or our using time and working capital to pursue a transaction that cannot be completed because of the actions of regulators. As uncertainties remain regarding the interpretation and implementation of these laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that we or the combined company following a Business Combination will comply with such regulations in all respects and we or the combined company following a Business Combination may be ordered to rectify or terminate any actions that are deemed illegal by regulatory authorities. If obtained, the approval process may take a period longer than we expect before we enter into a definitive agreement with a target company, we may be unable to complete a Business Combination by the Termination Date. We or the combined company following a Business Combination may also become subject to fines and/or other sanctions which may have material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial condition.

 

*In light of recent events indicating greater oversight by the CAC over data security, particularly for companies seeking to list on a foreign exchange, companies with more than one million users' personal information in China, especially some internet and technology companies, may not be willing to list on a U.S. exchange or enter into a definitive business combination agreement with us.*

Companies in China are subject to various risks and costs associated with the collection, use, sharing, retention, security, and transfer of confidential and private information, such as personal information and other data. This data is wide ranging and relates to our investors, employees, contractors and other counterparties and third parties. If we decide to initiate a Business Combination with a company in China, our compliance obligations include those relating to the relevant PRC laws in this regard. These PRC laws apply not only to third-party transactions, but also to transfers of information between a holding company and its subsidiaries. These laws continue to develop, and the PRC government may adopt other rules and restrictions in the future. Non-compliance could result in penalties or other significant legal liabilities.

Pursuant to the PRC Cybersecurity Law, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on November 7, 2016 and took effect on June 1, 2017, personal information and important data collected and generated by a critical information infrastructure operator in the course of its operations in China must be stored in China, and if a critical information infrastructure operator purchases internet products and services that affect or may affect national security, it should be subject to cybersecurity review by the CAC. In April 2020, the CAC and certain other PRC regulatory authorities promulgated the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, which requires that operators of critical information infrastructure must pass a cybersecurity review when purchasing network products and services which do or may affect national security. On January 4, 2022, the CAC, in conjunction with 12 other government departments, issued the New Measures for Cybersecurity Review (the "**New Measures**"). The New Measures, which became effective on February 15, 2022, amend the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (Draft Revision for Comments) released on July 10, 2021. The New Measures require that certain operators of data processing activities that affect or may affect national security or that handle personal information of more than one million users must apply for cybersecurity review to the Cybersecurity Review Office when they go public abroad. The PRC Data Security Law, which took effect on September 1, 2021, imposes data security and privacy obligations on entities and individuals that carry out data activities, provides for a national security review procedure for data activities that may affect national security and imposes export restrictions on certain data and information.

The New Measures require that certain operators of data processing activities that affect or may affect national security or that handle personal information of more than one million users must apply for cybersecurity review to the Cybersecurity Review Office when they go public abroad. The PRC Data Security Law, which took effect on September 1, 2021, imposes data security and privacy obligations on entities and individuals that carry out data activities, provides for a national security review procedure for data activities that may affect national security and imposes export restrictions on certain data and information. On August 20, 2021, the Standing Committee of the People's Congress promulgated the PRC Personal Information Protection Law (the "**PIPL**"), which took effect on November 1, 2021. The PIPL sets out the regulatory framework for the handling and protection of personal information and the transmission of personal information overseas. If our PRC Target Company involves collecting and retaining internal or customer data, such target might be subject to the relevant cybersecurity laws and regulations, including the PRC Cybersecurity Law and the PIPL, and the cybersecurity review before effecting an initial business combination. The cybersecurity review might impact the timetable of our initial business combination and the certainty of our initial business combination, if the target company we have identified is subject to the aforementioned cybersecurity related laws and regulations.

Furthermore, if we were found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations in China during such review, we could be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings, fines, or service suspension. Therefore, cybersecurity review could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, the PRC Data Security Law, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on June 10, 2021 and takes effect on September 1, 2021, requires data collection to be conducted in a legitimate and proper manner, and stipulates that, for the purpose of data protection, data processing activities must be conducted based on data classification and hierarchical protection system for data security. After the Data Security Law takes effect, if the post-combination entity's data processing activities were found to be not in compliance with this law, our post-combination entity could be ordered to make corrections, and under certain serious circumstances, such as severe data divulgence, we and the post-combination entity could be subject to penalties, including the revocation of our business licenses or other permits. As a result, we and the post-combination entity may be required to suspend our relevant businesses, shut down our website, take down our operating applications, or face other penalties, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

 

*The PRC government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of the post-combination entity's business and may intervene in or influence its operations at any time, which could result in a material change in its operations and/or the value of our securities. We are also currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, however, if the China-based Target and the VIE were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to continue listing on a U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of our investors.*

There is no restriction in the geographic location of targets that we can pursue and we may pursue a Business Combination with a company doing business in China (excluding any target company whose financial statements are audited by an accounting firm that PCAOB is unable to inspect for two consecutive years beginning in 2021 and any target company that consolidates financial results of PRC operating entities through a VIE structure in the PRC instead of direct holdings) and we may pursue a Business Combination with a China-based Target which might require a VIE structure. We currently do not have any PRC subsidiary or China operation and our management are located outside China. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our post-combination entity's ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

For example, the Chinese cybersecurity regulator announced on July 2, 2021, that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the company's app be removed from smartphone app stores. On July 24, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly released the Guidelines for Further Easing the Burden of Excessive Homework and Off-campus Tutoring for Students at the Stage of Compulsory Education, pursuant to which foreign investment in such firms via mergers and acquisitions, franchise development, and variable interest entities are banned from this sector.

As such, the post-combination entity's business segments may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate at any time. The post-combination entity could be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. We and our post-combination entity may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

● delay or impede the post-combination entity's development;

● result in negative publicity or increase the post-combination entity's operating costs;

● require significant management time and attention; and

● subject the post-combination entity to remedies, administrative penalties and even criminal liabilities that may harm the post-combination entity's business, including fines assessed for its current or historical operations or demands or orders that it modifies or even cease its business practices.

As we do not have any operations in China, given that (a) the CSRC, currently has not issued any definitive rule or interpretation concerning our operations being subject to the M&A Rules; and (b) our company is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware rather than in China and currently our company does not own or control any equity interest in any PRC company or operate any business in China, we believe that we are not required to obtain any licenses or approvals, under applicable PRC laws and regulations, for our operation and while seeking a target for the Business Combination. Further, according to the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, which was promulgated on December 28, 2021 and became effective on February 15, 2022, online platform operators holding more than one million users/users' individual information shall be subject to cybersecurity review before listing abroad. As we are a blank check company and are not involved in the collection of personal data of at least 1 million users or implicate cybersecurity, we do not believe that we are a "network platform operator(s)", or subject to the cybersecurity review of the CAC.

However, applicable PRC laws, regulations, or interpretations may change, and the relevant PRC government agencies could reach a different conclusion. If the PRC government initiates an investigations into us or the post-combination entity at any time alleging us violation of cybersecurity laws, anti-monopoly laws, and securities offering rules in China in connection future business combination, we may have to spend additional resources and incur additional time delays to comply with the applicable rules, and our business will be affected materially and any such action could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless. There is also possibility that we may not be able to obtain or maintain such approval or that we inadvertently concluded that such approval was not required. If prior approval was required while we inadvertently concluded that such approval was not required or if applicable laws and regulations or the interpretation of such were modified to require us to obtain the approval in the future, we may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from relevant Chinese regulatory authorities. Further, the promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case that restrict or otherwise may unfavorably impact the ability or way the post-combination entity may conduct its business and could require it to change certain aspects of its business to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for its products or services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject it to additional liabilities. As such, the post-combination entity's operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future PRC laws and regulations relating to its business or industry, which could result in a material and adverse change in operations, and may cause the value of our or the post-combination entity's securities significantly decline, or potentially rendering it worthless. As a result, both you and us face uncertainty about future actions by the PRC government that could significantly affect and may completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our or the post-combination entity's securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

 

*PRC laws and regulations governing our post-combination entity's business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain and any changes in such laws and regulations may impair our ability to operate profitably.*

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business and the enforcement and performance of our arrangements with customers in certain circumstances. The laws and regulations are sometimes vague and may be subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness and interpretation of newly enacted laws or regulations, including amendments to existing laws and regulations, may be delayed, and our business may be affected if we rely on laws and regulations which are subsequently adopted or interpreted in a manner different from our understanding of these laws and regulations. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict what effect the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations may have on our post-combination entity's business.

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. Since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and the enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties.

In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past three decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory provisions and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy. These uncertainties may affect our judgment on the relevance of legal requirements and our ability to enforce our contractual rights or tort claims. In addition, the regulatory uncertainties may be exploited through unmerited or frivolous legal actions or threats in attempts to extract payments or benefits from us.

Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of any of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. In addition, any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

From time to time, our post-combination entity may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection our post-combination entity enjoys than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published in a timely manner or at all) that may have retroactive effect. As a result, we and our post-combination entity may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our post-combination entity's ability to continue its operations.

 

*Changes in the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government may be quick with little advance notice and could have a significant impact upon our ability to operate in the PRC.*

Our post-combination entity may conduct most of its operations and generate most of its revenue in the PRC. Accordingly, economic, political and legal developments in the PRC will significantly affect our post-combination entity's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government can have significant effects on economic conditions in the PRC and the ability of businesses to operate profitably. Our post-combination entity's ability to operate profitably in the PRC may be adversely affected by changes in policies by the PRC government, including changes in laws, regulations or their interpretation, particularly those dealing with the Internet, including censorship and other restriction on material which can be transmitted over the Internet, security, intellectual property, money laundering, taxation and other laws that affect our post-combination entity's ability to operate its business.

Any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings (including businesses whose primary operations are in Hong Kong) that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in PRC-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

 

*The PRC government may intervene or influence the China-based Target's business operations at any time or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China based issuers, which could result in a material change in the China-based Target's business operations post Business Combination and/or the value of our securities. Additionally, the governmental and regulatory interference could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors post Business Combination and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.*

Statements by the PRC government have indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in China-based issuers. On December 28, 2021, the CAC, jointly with 12 departments under the State Council, promulgated the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, which became effective on February 15, 2022. According to the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services, and data processors carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct cyber security review. An operator, including operators of critical information infrastructure and data processors, who controls more than 1 million users' personal information must report to the Cyber Security Review Office for a cybersecurity review if it intends to be listed in a foreign country.

We may pursue a Business Combination with a China-based Target. Therefore, it is uncertain whether such China-based Target will be involved in the collection of user data, implicate cybersecurity, or involve any other type of restricted industry. Based on our understanding of currently applicable PRC laws and regulations, our registered public offering in the U.S. is not subject to the review or prior approval of the CAC or the CSRC. Uncertainties still exist, however, due to the possibility that laws, regulations, or policies in the PRC could change rapidly in the future. Any future action by the PRC government expanding the categories of industries and companies whose foreign securities offerings are subject to review by the CSRC or the CAC could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. In addition, if we were to attempt to complete a business combination with a company that was subject to CAC or CSRC regulations, the CAC or CSRC could not provide approval for the transaction and prevent us from completing a Business Combination, which would result in our expending significant costs without being able to complete a Business Combination.

 

 

*China Securities Regulatory Commission and other PRC government agencies may exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based issuers. If we seek to enter into a Business Combination with a China-based Target, additional compliance procedures may be required in connection with future offerings of our securities and our business combination process, and, if required, we cannot predict whether we will be able to obtain such approval. As a result, both you and us face uncertainty about future actions by the PRC government that could significantly affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.*

On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital markets, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws. Uncertainties still exist in relation to how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our future business combination with a company with major operation in China. In addition, 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, the CSRC and other PRC government agencies may exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based issuers. Additional compliance procedures may be required in connection with our operations and our business combination process, and, if required, we cannot predict whether we will be able to obtain such approval. As a result, both you and us face uncertainty about future actions by the PRC government that could significantly affect our ability to operate, effect an initial business combination and may cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

 

*We believe that the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission is not required*

As a blank check company incorporated in Delaware rather than in China and currently our company does not own or control any equity interest in any PRC company or operate any business in China, we did not generate any revenue or profit nor have any asset in China or from any operation in China as documented in our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended in March 31, 2026. As a result, we believe that we do not meet the criteria of a domestic company in the PRC as set forth in New Administrative Rules Regarding Overseas Listings. In addition, as we are a blank check company and are not involved in the collection of personal data of at least 1 million users or implicate cybersecurity, we do not believe that we are a "network platform operator(s)", or subject to the cybersecurity review of the CAC, nor subject to Confidentiality and Archives Administration Provisions for the offering.

Notwithstanding the above, since the New Administrative Rules Regarding Overseas Listings and the Confidentiality and Archives Administration Provisions are newly promulgated, and the interpretation and implementation thereof involves uncertainties. If it is determined in the future that the approval of the CSRC, the CAC or any other regulatory authority is required, we may face sanctions by the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies, or these regulatory agencies may take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business as well as the trading price of our securities. In addition, if the CSRC, the CAC or other regulatory PRC agencies later promulgate new rules requiring that we obtain their approvals for the offering, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of such approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. These governmental authorities may delay a potential Business Combination, impose fines and penalties, limit our operations in China, or take other actions that could result in our inability to consummate a Business Combination with a China-based Target, or materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities or the continued listing on a U.S. exchange. Any changes in PRC law, regulations, or interpretations may severely affect our operations and searching for a target to consummate a Business Combination. The use of the term "operate" and "operations" includes the process of searching for a target business and conducting related activities. To that extent, we may not be able to conduct the process of searching of a potential target company in China.

If we decide to consummate our Business Combination with a China-based Target through its subsidiaries and VIEs, as applicable, we might be subject to relevant requirements to obtain applicable licenses from PRC governmental authorities under relevant PRC laws and regulations.

 

 

*In the event we successfully consummated a Business Combination with a China-based Target, we will be subject to restrictions on dividend payments following consummation of our Business Combination.*

If we consummate our Business Combination with a China-based Target, we may rely on dividends and other distributions from our operating company to provide us with cash flow and to meet our other obligations. Current regulations in China would permit our operating company in China to pay dividends to us only out of its accumulated distributable profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, the post-combination entity's operating company in China will be required to set aside at least 10% (up to an aggregate amount equal to half of its registered capital) of its accumulated profits each year. Such cash reserve may not be distributed as cash dividends. In addition, if the post-combination entity's operating company in China incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other payments to us.

 

*If we make equity compensation grants to persons who are PRC citizens, they may be required to register with the SAFE. We may also face regulatory uncertainties that could restrict our ability to adopt equity compensation plans for our directors and employees and other parties under PRC laws.*

On April 6, 2007, SAFE issued the "Operating Procedures for Administration of Domestic Individuals Participating in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan or Stock Option Plan of An Overseas Listed Company, also known as "Circular 78." It is not clear whether Circular 78 covers all forms of equity compensation plans or only those which provide for the granting of shares options. For any plans which are so covered and are adopted by a non-PRC listed company, such as our company, after April 6, 2007, Circular 78 requires all participants who are PRC citizens to register with and obtain approvals from SAFE prior to their participation in the plan. In addition, Circular 78 also requires PRC citizens to register with SAFE and make the necessary applications and filings if they participated in an overseas listed company's covered equity compensation plan prior to April 6, 2007. We believe that the registration and approval requirements contemplated in Circular 78 will be burdensome and time consuming.

Upon consummation of Business Combination with a China-based Target, we may adopt an equity incentive plan and make shares option grants under the plan to our officers, directors and employees, whom may be PRC citizens and be required to register with SAFE. If it is determined that any of our equity compensation plans are subject to Circular 78, failure to comply with such provisions may subject us and participants of our equity incentive plan who are PRC citizens to fines and legal sanctions and prevent us from being able to grant equity compensation to our PRC employees. In that case, our ability to compensate our employees and directors through equity compensation would be hindered and our business operations may be adversely affected.

 

*Enhanced scrutiny over acquisition transactions by the PRC tax authorities may have a negative impact on potential acquisitions we may pursue in the future.*

The PRC tax authorities have enhanced their scrutiny over the direct or indirect transfer of certain taxable assets, including, in particular, equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise, by a non-resident enterprise by promulgating and implementing SAT Circular 59 and Circular 698, which became effective in January 2008, and a Circular 7 in replacement of some of the existing rules in Circular 698, which became effective in February 2015.

Under Circular 698, where a non-resident enterprise conducts an "indirect transfer" by transferring the equity interests of a PRC "resident enterprise" indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise, being the transferor, may be subject to PRC corporate income tax, if the indirect transfer is considered to be an abusive use of company structure without reasonable commercial purposes. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of up to 10%. Circular 698 also provides that, where a non-PRC resident enterprise transfers its equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise to its related parties at a price lower than the fair market value, the relevant tax authority has the power to make a reasonable adjustment to the taxable income of the transaction.

In February 2015, the SAT issued Circular 7 to replace the rules relating to indirect transfers in Circular 698. Circular 7 has introduced a new tax regime that is significantly different from that under Circular 698. Circular 7 extends its tax jurisdiction to not only indirect transfers set forth under Circular 698 but also transactions involving transfer of other taxable assets, through the offshore transfer of a foreign intermediate holding company. In addition, Circular 7 provides clearer criteria than Circular 698 on how to assess reasonable commercial purposes and has introduced safe harbors for internal group restructurings and the purchase and sale of equity through a public securities market. Circular 7 also brings challenges to both the foreign transferor and transferee (or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer) of the taxable assets. Where a non-resident enterprise conducts an "indirect transfer" by transferring the taxable assets indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise being the transferor, or the transferee, or the PRC entity which directly owned the taxable assets may report to the relevant tax authority such indirect transfer. Using a "substance over form" principle, the PRC tax authority may disregard the existence of the overseas holding company if it lacks a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of reducing, avoiding or deferring PRC tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC corporate income tax, and the transferee or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer is obligated to withhold the applicable taxes, currently at a rate of 10% for the transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise.

We may face uncertainties on the reporting and consequences on future private equity financing transactions, share exchange or other transactions involving the transfer of shares in our company by investors that are non-PRC resident enterprises. The PRC tax authorities may pursue such non-resident enterprises with respect to a filing or the transferees with respect to withholding obligation, and request our PRC subsidiaries to assist in the filing. As a result, we and non-resident enterprises in such transactions may become at risk of being subject to filing obligations or being taxed, under Circular 59 or Circular 698 and Circular 7, and may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with Circular 59, Circular 698 and Circular 7 or to establish that we and our non-resident enterprises should not be taxed under these circulars, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The PRC tax authorities have the discretion under SAT Circular 59, Circular 698 and Circular 7 to make adjustments to the taxable capital gains based on the difference between the fair value of the taxable assets transferred and the cost of investment. If we are considered a non-resident enterprise under the PRC corporate income tax law and if the PRC tax authorities make adjustments to the taxable income of the transactions under SAT Circular 59 or Circular 698 and Circular 7, our income tax costs associated with such potential acquisitions will be increased, which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

*China's economic, political and social conditions, as well as changes in any government policies, laws and regulations, could have a material adverse effect on our business or Business Combination.*

If we effect our Business Combination with a China-based Target, a substantial portion of our operations may be conducted in China, and a significant portion of our net revenues may be derived from customers where the contracting entity is located in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and any potential Business Combination and certain transactions we may undertake may be subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal developments in China. For example, changes in the cybersecurity regulations in China that would require certain Chinese technology firms to undergo a cybersecurity review before being allowed to list on foreign exchanges, this may have the effect of further narrowing the list of potential businesses in China's consumer, technology and mobility sectors that we intend to focus on for our Business Combination or the ability of the combined entity to list in the United States.

China's economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While the PRC economy has experienced significant growth in the past two to three decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Demand for target services and products depends, in large part, on economic conditions in China. Any slowdown in China's economic growth may cause our potential customers to delay or cancel their plans to purchase our services and products, which in turn could reduce our net revenues.

Although China's economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market oriented economy since the late 1970s, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The PRC government also exercises significant control over China's economic growth through allocating resources, controlling the incurrence and payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Changes in any of these policies, laws and regulations could adversely affect the economy in China and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage foreign investment and sustainable economic growth and to guide the allocation of financial and other resources. However, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not repeal or alter these measures or introduce new measures that will have a negative effect on us. China's social and political conditions may change and become unstable. Any sudden changes to China's political system or the occurrence of widespread social unrest could have a material adverse effect on our combined business and results of operations.

 

*Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.*

If we complete a Business Combination with a China-based Target with substantially all of its revenues in RMB, the post-combination entity will be subject to the PRC's rules and regulations on currency conversion. In the PRC, In the PRC, the SAFE regulates the conversion of the Renminbi into foreign currencies. The PRC government may impose controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. Under existing exchange restrictions, without prior approval of SAFE, cash generated from PRC subsidiaries in China may be used to pay dividends. However, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required where RMBs are 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. The PRC government may at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future. If the foreign exchange control system prevents the post-combination entity from obtaining sufficient foreign currencies to satisfy its foreign currency demands, it may not pay dividends in foreign currencies to its shareholders. Therefore, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our post-combination entity's profits, if any. If subsidiaries of our post-combination organization in the PRC incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments. Under the VIE structure, current PRC regulations permit a VIE to pay dividends to its holding company only out of its accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations.

Furthermore, if we complete a Business Combination with a China-based Target via VIE Agreements and we are unable to receive all of the revenues from our operations through the current VIE Agreements, we may be unable to pay dividends on our common stock. Cash dividends, if any, on our common stock will be paid in U.S. dollars. If we are considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes after the Business Combination, any dividends we pay to our overseas stockholders may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result may be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of up to 10.0%. In order for us to pay dividends to our stockholders, we will rely on payments made from our post-combination subsidiaries, either directly controlled by us or indirectly controlled by us via VIE Agreements. Under the VIE structure, a holding company will highly rely on the VIE Agreements between it and the VIE to distribute earnings and settle amounts owed under the VIE agreements, while we cannot guarantee the PRC governments will allow such arrangement.

In addition, the PRC laws or regulations may impact the cash flows associated with our Business Combination, including stockholder redemption rights. For example, if any PRC government actions cause a significant delay in our ability to consummate our Business Combination, we might be required to seek stockholder approval to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation in order to extend the time period to complete our Business Combination, which approval may not be received. However, the funds held in our trust account are not held in China, they are held in U.S. dollars in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and therefore, we believe that shareholder redemption rights would not be impacted.

PRC regulatory authorities could impose further restrictions on the convertibility of RMBs. Any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use the proceeds of the IPO in a Business Combination with a China-Based Target and the use of our cash flow for the distribution of dividends to our stockholder or to fund operations we may have outside of the PRC.

 

 

*If we become directly subject to the recent scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business operations, process of searching for a target to consummate a Business Combination and our reputation and could result in a loss of your investment in our securities, especially if such matter cannot be addressed and resolved favorably.*

Recently, U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China, have been subject to intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on us if we target a PRC company with respect to the Business Combination. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend the company. This situation may be a major distraction to our management. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, we will be severely hampered and your investment in our securities could be rendered worthless.

 

*Trading in our securities may be prohibited under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate the auditor of the combined company. In that case, our securities may be prohibited from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over the counter trading market in the U.S., which may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment. Additionally, the inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections may deprive our investors with the benefits of such inspections.*

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB determined that it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its December 2021 determinations to the contrary. To ensure ongoing access for inspections and investigations, the PCAOB will determine annually whether it can inspect and investigate completely audit firms in mainland China and Hong Kong. Notwithstanding, the PCAOB has also identified numerous deficiencies at audit firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, as has been the case in other jurisdictions in the first year of PCAOB inspection. The PCAOB intends to release inspection reports in the first half of next year detailing findings from their inspections of these audit firms.

An auditor and its audit work in the PRC may not be inspected fully by the PCAOB. Inspections of other auditors conducted by the PCAOB outside China have at times identified deficiencies in those auditors' audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating the PRC auditor's audits and its quality control procedures.

Further, future developments in U.S. laws may restrict our ability or willingness to complete certain business combinations with companies. For instance, the recently enacted Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the "**HFCA Act**") would restrict our ability to consummate a Business Combination with a target business unless that business met certain standards of the PCAOB and would require delisting of a company from U.S. national securities exchanges if the PCAOB is unable to inspect its public accounting firm for two consecutive years. The HFCA Act also requires public companies to disclose, among other things, whether they are owned or controlled by a foreign government, specifically, those based in China. Furthermore, the documentation we may be required to submit to the SEC proving certain beneficial ownership requirements and establishing that we are not owned or controlled by a foreign government in the event that we use a foreign public accounting firm not subject to inspection by the PCAOB or where the PCAOB is unable to completely inspect or investigate our accounting practices or financial statements because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction could be onerous and time consuming to prepare. The HFCAA mandates the SEC to identify issuers of SEC-registered securities whose audited financial reports are prepared by an accounting firm that the PCAOB is unable to inspect due to restrictions imposed by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction where the audits are performed. If such identified issuer's auditor cannot be inspected by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, the trading of such issuer's securities on any U.S. national securities exchanges, as well as any over-the-counter trading in the U.S., will be prohibited.

On November 5, 2021, the SEC approved the PCAOB's Rule 6100, Board Determinations Under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. Rule 6100 provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.

On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions.

Pursuant to the HFCA Act, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in (1) mainland China of the PRC because of positions taken Chinese authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB made its determination pursuant to its Rule 6100, which provides the framework for how the PCAOB fulfils its responsibilities under the HFCA Act. In addition, the PCAOB's report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to PCAOB's determination that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in China.

On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol with the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Ministry of Finance of the PRC, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong completely, consistent with U.S. law. The Statement of Protocol gives the PCAOB sole discretion to select the firms, audit engagements and potential violations it inspects and investigates and put in place procedures for PCAOB inspectors and investigators to view complete audit work papers with all information included and for the PCAOB to retain information as needed. In addition, the Statement of Protocol grants the PCAOB direct access to interview and take testimony from all personnel associated with the audits the PCAOB inspects or investigates. Nevertheless, uncertainties still exist as to how the Statement of Protocol will be implemented and whether the applicable parties will comply with the framework. More than 30 PCAOB staff members conducted on-site inspections and investigations in Hong Kong, reviewing thousands of pages of documents, conducting interviews and taking testimony over a nine-week period from September to November 2022.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB's access in the future, the PCAOB will consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, the AHFCAA was signed into law to amend the HFCAA by 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 years instead of three. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely the auditor of a China-based Target because of a position taken by an authority in a foreign jurisdiction, then such lack of inspection could cause the securities of the combined company to be delisted from the stock exchange.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that we decide to consummate our Business Combination with a China-based Target, if there is any regulatory change which prohibits the independent accountants from providing audit documentations located in mainland China or Hong Kong to the PCAOB for inspection or investigation or the PCAOB expands the scope of the Determination Report so that the target company or the combined company is subject to the HFCA Act, as the same may be amended, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection which could result in limitation or restriction to our access to the U.S. capital markets and trading of our securities on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. may be prohibited, under the HFCA Act and could cause us to fail to be in compliance with U.S. securities laws and regulations. If our securities are delisted and prohibited from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over the counter trading market in the U.S. due to the PCAOB not being able to conduct inspections or full investigations of our auditor, it would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with potential delisting and prohibition would have a negative impact on the price of our securities. Also, such delisting and prohibition could significantly affect the Company's ability to raise capital on acceptable terms, or at all, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and prospects. Any of these actions, or uncertainties in the market about the possibility of such actions, could adversely affect our prospects to successfully complete a business combination with a China-based company, our access to the U.S. capital markets and the price of our shares.

The SEC has adopted final rules to implement the HFCA Act and may propose additional rules or guidance that could impact us if our auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspection. For example, on August 6, 2020, the President's Working Group on Financial Markets, or the PWG, issued the Report on Protecting United States Investors from Significant Risks from Chinese Companies to the then President of the United States. This report recommended the SEC implement five recommendations to address companies from jurisdictions that do not provide the PCAOB with sufficient access to fulfill its statutory mandate. Some of the concepts of these recommendations were implemented with the enactment of the HFCA Act. However, some of the recommendations were more stringent than the HFCA Act. For example, if a company was not subject to PCAOB inspection, the report recommended that the transition period before a company would be delisted would end on January 1, 2022.

The SEC's final rules to implement the HFCA Act require the SEC to identify registrants having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate and require such issuers to submit documentation that, if true, it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in the public accounting firm's foreign jurisdiction. The amendments also require foreign issuers to provide certain additional disclosures in its annual report for itself and any of its consolidated foreign operating entities and provides notice regarding the procedures the SEC has established to identify issuers and to impose trading prohibitions on the securities of such issuers as required by the HFCA Act. The SEC has also announced amendments to various annual report forms to accommodate the certification and disclosure requirements of the HFCA Act. There could be additional regulatory or legislative requirements or guidance that could impact us if our auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspection. The implications of these possible regulations in addition to the requirements of the HFCA Act are uncertain, and such uncertainty could cause the market price of our securities to be materially and adversely affected. If, for whatever reason, the PCAOB is unable to conduct inspections or full investigations of the auditor of the combined company, the Company could be delisted or prohibited from being traded over the counter earlier than would be required by the HFCA Act. If our securities are unable to be listed on another securities exchange or is prohibited from trading over the counter, such delisting and prohibition would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with potential delisting and prohibition would have a negative impact on the price of our securities. Also, such delisting and prohibition could significantly affect the Company's ability to raise capital on acceptable terms, or at all, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and prospects.

Inspections of audit firms that the PCAOB has conducted have identified deficiencies in those firms' audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. If the PCAOB were unable to conduct inspections or full investigations of the Company's auditor, investors in our securities would be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. In addition, the inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections or full investigations of auditors would may make it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm's audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors that are subject to the PCAOB inspections, which could cause investors and potential investors in our stock to lose confidence in the audit procedures of our auditor and reported financial information and the quality of our financial statements.

Future developments in respect of increase U.S. regulatory access to audit information are uncertain, as the legislative developments are subject to the legislative process and the regulatory developments are subject to the rule-making process and other administrative procedures. Additionally, other developments in U.S. laws and regulatory environment, including but not limited to executive orders such as Executive Order (E.O.) 13959, "Addressing the Threat from Securities Investments That Finance Communist Chinese Military Companies," may further restrict our ability to complete a Business Combination with certain China-based businesses.

 

*Other PRC governmental authorities may take the view now or in the future that an approval from them is required for an overseas offering by a company affiliated with Chinese businesses or persons or a Business Combination with a target business based in and primarily operating in China.*

The Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors (the "**M&A Rules**"), adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006, and amended in 2009, require an offshore special purpose vehicle formed for the purpose of an overseas listing of securities in a PRC company to obtain the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the "**CSRC**") prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle's securities on an overseas stock exchange. The scope of the M&A Rules covers two types of transactions: (a) equity deals where the acquisition by a foreign investor, i.e., the offshore special purpose vehicle, of equity in a "PRC domestic company," and (b) asset deals where the acquisition by an offshore special purpose vehicle of the assets of a "PRC domestic company." Neither the equity deals or the asset deals will be involved in our Business Combination process with a China-based target for the reason that the offshore special purpose vehicle of such China-based target directly holds shares through the wholly foreign owned enterprise(s) or WFOE, which are established by means of direct investment rather than by equity deals or asset deals under the M&A Rules. To date, the CSRC has not issued any definitive rules or interpretations concerning whether offerings such as the indirect listing of a China-based entity as part of the business combination are subject to the CSRC approval procedures under the M&A Rules. Substantial uncertainty remains regarding the scope and applicability of the M&A Rules to offshore special purpose vehicles. It is possible that we may need to obtain approvals or permissions from CSRC in order for us to complete a Business Combination with a China-based target pursuant to the M&A Rules. If we are required to obtain such approvals, we cannot assure we will be able to receive them in a timely manner, or at all.

Moreover, except for emphasizing the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities, and the need to strengthen the supervision over overseas listings by Chinese companies, the Opinions, which was made available to the public on July 6, 2021, also provides that the State Council will revise provisions regarding the overseas issuance and listing of shares by companies limited by shares and will clarify the duties of domestic regulatory authorities.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC issued the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the "**Trial Administrative Measures**") and relevant supporting guidelines (collectively, the "**New Administrative Rules Regarding Overseas Listings**"), which came into effect since March 31, 2023. According to the New Administrative Rules Regarding Overseas Listings, among other things, a domestic company in the PRC that seeks to offer and list securities in overseas markets shall fulfill the filing procedure with the CSRC as per requirement of the Trial Administrative Measures. On February 24, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Provisions on Strengthening Confidentiality and Archives Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the "**Confidentiality and Archives Administration Provisions**"), which also became effective on March 31, 2023. The Confidentiality and Archives Administration Provisions set out rules, requirements and procedures relating to provision of documents, materials and accounting archives for securities companies, securities service providers, overseas regulators and other entities and individuals in connection with overseas offering and listing, including without limitation to, domestic companies that carry out overseas offering and listing (either in direct or indirect means) and the securities companies and securities service providers (either incorporated domestically or overseas) that undertake relevant businesses shall not leak any state secret and working secret of government agencies, or harm national security and public interest, and a domestic company shall first obtain approval from competent authorities according to law, and file with the secrecy administrative department at the same level, if it plans to, either directly or through its overseas listed entity, publicly disclose or provide any documents and materials that contain state secrets or working secrets of government agencies. Since the New Administrative Rules Regarding Overseas Listings and the Confidentiality and Archives Administration Provisions are newly promulgated, and the interpretation and implementation thereof involves uncertainties, we cannot assure that we will be able to complete the relevant filings in a timely manner or fulfil all the regulatory requirements thereunder if we acquire a China-based Target, and it is highly uncertain how new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our capability to acquire or merge with a company with major operations in China, and post-combined company's ability to conduct its business, accept foreign investments or list on an U.S. exchange or other foreign exchange.

On December 27, 2021, the NDRC and the MOFCOM promulgated Special Administrative Measures (Negative List) for the Access of Foreign Investment (2021 Version), effective as of January 1, 2022 (the "**Negative List**"). Compared to the previous version, there are no specific industries added to the list but it for the first time declares China's jurisdiction over (and detailed regulatory requirements on) overseas listings made by Chinese businesses in the so-called "Prohibited Industries." According to Article 6 of the Negative List, domestic enterprises engaging in businesses in which foreign investment is prohibited shall obtain approval from the relevant authorities before offering and listing their shares on an overseas stock exchange. In addition, certain foreign investors shall not be involved in the operation or management of the relevant enterprise, and shareholding percentage restrictions under relevant domestic securities investment management regulations shall apply to such foreign investors. The intended scope of such jurisdiction was further clarified by NDRC officials on a press conference held on January 18, 2022.

In the event that we were to determine to engage in a Business Combination with a China-based or operating business we would be subject to restrictions on the use of our cash obtained from our Business Combination with a China-based or operating business as described under "*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 it receives from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to any PRC subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and its ability to fund and expand business*". However, we do not believe we are currently subject to PRC law or regulation, including those PRC laws and regulation which affect our cash flow, including our ability to effect the redemption rights of our shareholders in connection with a Business Combination. We note that the funds held in trust to effect any such redemption are held outside of China and, in any event, we are not aware of any PRC law or regulation that would prevent us from making redemption payments to our shareholders.

Our company is a blank check company incorporated under the U.S. laws. We currently do not hold any equity interest in any PRC company or operate any business in China. Therefore, we believe that we are not required to obtain any permission from any PRC governmental authorities to operate our business as currently conducted. If we decide to consummate our Business Combination with a target business based in and primarily operating in China, the combined company's business operations in China through its subsidiaries, as applicable, are subject to relevant requirements to obtain applicable licenses from PRC governmental authorities under relevant PRC laws and regulations.

 

*Uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations and changes in policies, rules, and regulations in China, which may be quick with little advance notice, could limit the legal protection available to you and us.*

The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which legal cases have limited value as precedents. In the late 1970s, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The legislation over the past three decades has significantly increased the protection afforded to various forms of foreign or private-sector investment in China. Any future PRC subsidiary and or affiliated VIEs is subject to various PRC laws and regulations generally applicable to companies in China. Since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, however, the interpretations of many laws, regulations, and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations, and rules involve uncertainties.

From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, however, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy in the PRC legal system than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies, internal rules, and regulations that may have retroactive effect and may change quickly with little advance notice. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainties over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property), and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

 

*You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments, or bringing actions in China against us or our management based on foreign laws. It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China.*

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. 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. China does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the U.S. that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, the PRC courts will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC laws or national sovereignty, security, or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the U.S.

It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within 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 authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with its counterparts of another country or region to monitor and oversee cross-border securities activities, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the U.S. may not be efficient in the absence of a practical cooperation mechanism. Furthermore, according to Article 77 of the PRC Securities Law, or (the "**Article 177**") which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Article 177 further provides that Chinese entities and individuals are not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to foreign agencies without prior consent from the securities regulatory authority of the PRC State Council and the competent departments of the PRC State Council. While detailed interpretation of or implementing 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.

 

 

*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 it receives from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to any PRC subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and its ability to fund and expand business.*

Following a Business Combination with one or more PRC based entities, any transfer of funds by us to any PRC subsidiaries, either as a shareholder loan or as an increase in registered capital, is subject to approval by or registration or filing with relevant governmental authorities in China. According to the relevant PRC regulations on foreign-invested enterprises in China, capital contributions to PRC subsidiaries are subject to the approval of or filing with the Ministry of Commerce in its local branches and registration with a local bank authorized by SAFE. In addition, (i) any foreign loan procured by PRC subsidiaries is required to be registered with SAFE or its local branches or filed with SAFE in its information system; and (ii) PRC subsidiaries may not procure loans which exceed the difference between their total investment amount and registered capital or, as an alternative, only procure loans subject to the calculation approach and limitation as provided in the People's Bank of China Notice No. 9 ("**PBOC Notice No. 9**"). Any medium- or long-term loan to be provided by us or our affiliated entities, if any, to our PRC subsidiary must be registered with the National Development and Reform Commission and SAFE or its local branches. We may not be able to obtain these government approvals or complete such registrations on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future capital contributions or foreign loans by us to our PRC subsidiaries. If we fail to receive such approvals or complete such registration or filing, our ability to capitalize on PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely affect our liquidity and ability to fund and expand our businesses.

The Circular on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, effective as of June 1, 2015, as amended by Circular of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Regulating Policies on the Control over Foreign Exchange Settlement under the Capital Account, or SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, allows certain entities to settle their foreign exchange capital at their discretion, but continues to prohibit them from using the Renminbi fund converted from their foreign exchange capitals for expenditure beyond their business scopes, and also prohibit such PRC based entities from using such Renminbi fund to provide loans to persons other than affiliates unless otherwise permitted under its business scope. As a result, SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly limit our future ability to use Renminbi converted from the net proceeds from our offshore financing activities to fund the establishment of new entities in China by us or their subsidiaries, to invest in or acquire any other PRC companies through any future PRC subsidiaries in China, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

*Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could adversely affect us.*

If we consummate a Business Combination with a China-based Target, it will be governed by PRC laws and regulations. PRC companies and VIEs are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws and regulations applicable to wholly foreign-owned enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.

Since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions and their nonbinding nature, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

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

Any loans to PRC subsidiaries are subject to PRC regulations. For example, loans by us to subsidiaries in China, which are foreign invested entities ("**FIEs**"), to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with SAFE. On March 30, 2015, SAFE promulgated Hui Fa [2015] No.19, a notice regulating the conversion by a foreign-invested company of foreign currency into RMB. The foreign exchange capital, for which the monetary contribution has been confirmed by the foreign exchange authorities (or for which the monetary contribution has been registered for account entry) in the capital account of a foreign-invested enterprise may be settled at a bank as required by the enterprise's actual management needs. Foreign-invested enterprises with investment as their main business (including foreign-oriented companies, foreign-invested venture capital enterprises and foreign-invested equity investment enterprises) are allowed to, under the premise of authenticity and compliance of their domestic investment projects, carry out based on their actual investment scales direct settlement of foreign exchange capital or transfer the RMB funds in the foreign exchange settlement account for pending payment to the invested enterprises' accounts.

On May 10, 2013, SAFE released Circular 21, which came into effect on May 13, 2013. According to Circular 21, SAFE has simplified the foreign exchange administration procedures with respect to the registration, account openings and conversions, settlements of FDI-related foreign exchange, as well as fund remittances.

Circular 21 may significantly limit our ability to convert, transfer and use the net proceeds from the IPO and any offering of additional equity securities in China, which may adversely affect our liquidity and the combined company's ability to fund and expand its business in the PRC.

We may also decide to finance the subsidiaries of our post-combination entity by means of capital contributions. These capital contributions must be approved by MOFCOM or its local counterpart, which usually takes no more than 30 working days to complete. We may not be able to obtain these government approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future capital contributions by us to the VIE's subsidiaries. If we fail to receive such approvals, we will not be able to capitalize our PRC operations, which could adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

***Our independent registered public accounting firm***'***s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability continue as a*** "***going concern***."

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $0 in cash outside of the Trust Account, and a working capital deficit of $7,219,045. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant expenses in connection with our initial business combination activities. Management's plans to address any need for additional capital are discussed in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to consummate an initial business combination will be successful. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a business combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), 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. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

*Attractive targets may be more scarce, and the competition for these targets could intensify. This could increase the cost of our initial business combination and it could even result in our inability to find a target or to consummate an initial business combination.*

Competition for available targets with strong fundamentals or business models could remain or increase. This heightened competition may lead target companies to demand improved financial terms. Attractive targets could also become more scarce for other reasons, such as downturns in the economy or specific industries, geopolitical tensions, or increases in the cost of capital required to close business combinations or operate post-business combination. These factors could increase the cost, delay, or complicate our ability to find and consummate an initial business combination, and may result in our inability to consummate a business combination on terms favorable to our shareholders.

 

 

*We may not be able to complete the Business Combination since such initial business combination may be 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 Buyer, JC Unify Capital (Holdings) Limited, is a limited liability company incorporated in British Virgin Islands, is controlled by Yu-Fang Chiu, an individual who resides in and is a citizen of Taiwan (R.O.C.). We are therefore likely considered a "foreign person" under the regulations administered by CFIUS and will continue to be considered as such in the future for so long as the Buyer has the ability to exercise control over us for purposes of CFIUS's regulations. As such, an initial business combination with a U.S. business may be subject to CFIUS review, 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 the Business Combination falls within CFIUS's jurisdiction, we may determine that we are required to make a mandatory filing or that we will submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the Business Combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the Business Combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay the Business Combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to the Business Combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company without first obtaining CFIUS clearance, which may limit the attractiveness of or prevent us from consummating the Business Combination.

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by the CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy and we have limited time to complete the VCI Business Combination. If we fail to consummate an initial business combination prior to July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if we exercise our option to extend the date to consummate a business combination or unless otherwise extended) because the review exceeds such timeframe or because our initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, we may be required to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public stockholders may only receive their pro rata share of the funds in the trust account, and our warrants and rights 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.

*There are no assurances that we will be able to complete the Business Combination with the Target Group or an initial business combination.*

 

The Company can provide no assurances that the Business Combination with the Target Group or any initial business combination will be consummated by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination). Our ability to consummate an initial business combination is dependent on a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. The Company expects to seek stockholder approval of any initial business combination following the SEC declaring a registration statement on Form F-4/S-4 effective, which will include our preliminary proxy statement/prospectus for the Business Combination with the Target Group (the "**Registration Statement**"). We are required to offer public stockholders redemption rights again in connection with any stockholder vote to approve an initial business combination. Even if an initial business combination is approved by our stockholders, it is possible that redemptions will leave us with insufficient cash to consummate a business combination on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. The fact that we will have separate redemption periods in connection with stockholder votes on any initial business combination could exacerbate these risks. Other than in connection with a redemption offer or liquidation, our stockholders may be unable to recover their investment except through sales of our shares on the open market. The price of our shares may be volatile, and there can be no assurance that stockholders will be able to dispose of our shares at favorable prices, or at all.

*If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.*

As described in the risk factor below entitled "***Changes to laws or regulations or in how such laws or regulations are interpreted or applied, or a failure to comply with any laws, regulations, interpretations or applications may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination,***" the SEC's adopting release on the SPAC Rules included guidance on the potential for SPACs to be regulated under the Investment Company Act and its associated regulations. Whether a SPAC is an investment company will be a question of facts and circumstances. If our facts and circumstances change over time, we will update our disclosure to reflect how those changes impact the risk that we may be considered to be operating as an unregistered investment company. We can give no assurance that a claim will not be made that we have been operating as an unregistered investment company.

If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may have to change our operations, wind down our operations, or register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Our activities may be restricted, including:

● restrictions on the nature of our investments; and

● restrictions on the issuance of securities;

each of which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.

In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome requirements, including:

● registration as an investment company;

● adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and

● reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations.

There is currently uncertainty concerning the applicability of the Investment Company Act to a special purpose acquisition company, like us, and we may in the future be subject to a claim that we have been operating as an unregistered investment company. If we are deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we might be forced to abandon our efforts to complete a Business Combination and instead be required to liquidate. If we are required to liquidate, our investors would not be able to realize the benefits of owning stock in a successor operating business, including the potential appreciation in the value of our shares and rights following such a transaction, and our rights would expire worthless.

The longer that the funds in the trust account are held in short-term U.S. government securities or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, the greater the risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we may be required to liquidate.

*Changes to laws or regulations or in how such laws or regulations are interpreted or applied, or a failure to comply with any laws, regulations, interpretations or applications may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination.*

We are subject to laws and regulations, and interpretations and applications of such laws and regulations, of national, regional, state and local governments and applicable non-U.S. jurisdictions. In particular, we are required to comply with certain SEC and potentially other legal and regulatory requirements, and our consummation of an initial business combination may be contingent upon our ability to comply with certain laws, regulations, interpretations and applications and any post-business combination company may be subject to additional laws, regulations, interpretations and applications. Compliance with, and monitoring of, the foregoing may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time, and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete an initial business combination. A failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination.

The 2024 SPAC Rules, among other items, impose additional disclosure requirements in initial public offerings by SPACs and business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies; amend the financial statement requirements applicable to business combination transactions involving such companies; update and expand guidance regarding the general use of projections in SEC filings, as well as when projections are disclosed in connection with proposed business combination transactions; increase the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and could impact the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The 2024 SPAC Rules may materially adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete, and the costs associated with, our initial business combination, and results of operations.

To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we have instructed Continental, the trustee, to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in an interest bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of the consummation of an initial business combination or our liquidation. Following the liquidation of investments in the Trust Account, we receive reduced interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which reduces the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

The funds in the Trust Account are held only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, the longer that the funds in the Trust Account are held in short-term U.S. government securities or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, the greater the risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we may be required to liquidate. To mitigate the risk of us being deemed to be an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act) and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, we instructed Continental, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in an interest bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of the consummation of our Initial Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. Following such liquidation, we receive reduced interest on the funds held in the Trust Account. However, interest previously earned on the funds held in the Trust Account still may be released to us to pay income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, if any, and certain other expenses as permitted. As a result, our decision to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in an interest bearing demand deposit at a bank reduces the dollar amount our Public Shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

*The Company may be affected by the Excise Tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.*

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "**IR Act**"), which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise tax on any publicly traded domestic corporation that repurchases its stock after December 31, 2022 (the "**Excise Tax**"). The Excise Tax is imposed on the fair market value of the repurchased stock, with certain exceptions. Because we are a Delaware corporation and our securities were traded on Nasdaq, we will be a "covered corporation" within the meaning of the IR Act. While not free from doubt, absent any further guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the "**Treasury**"), which has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the Excise Tax, the Excise Tax may apply to any redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022, including redemptions in connection with an initial business combination, extension vote or otherwise, unless an exemption is available. The Excise Tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holders. Generally, issuances of securities by us in connection with an initial business combination transaction (including any PIPE transaction at the time of an initial business combination), as well as any other issuances of securities not in connection with our initial business combination, would be expected to reduce the amount of the Excise Tax in connection with redemptions occurring in the same calendar year, but the number of securities redeemed may exceed the number of securities issued.

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 vote 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. Consequently, the Excise Tax may make a transaction with us less appealing to potential business combination targets. Finally, based on recently issued interim guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and Treasury in Notice 2023-2, subject to certain exceptions, the Excise Tax should not apply in the event of our liquidation.

*Payment of the Excise Tax if the Company is subject to the Excise Tax.*

We will not be permitted to use the proceeds placed in the Trust Account and the interest earned thereon to pay any Excise Taxes imposed under the IR Act on the any future redemptions or stock buybacks by the Company.

We have not asked our Sponsor or Buyer to reserve for any excise tax imposed under the IR Act, nor have we independently verified whether our Sponsor or Buyer has sufficient funds to satisfy any such excise tax payment, and we believe that our Sponsor's and Buyer's only material assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, we cannot assure you that our Sponsor or Buyer would be able to satisfy any excise tax payments.

*We were required by the Nasdaq Listing Rules to consummate an initial business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of our Initial Public Offering registration statement. As a result of our failure to consummate an initial business combination within this time period, our securities were delisted.*

Pursuant to IM-5101-2(b) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we were required to consummate an initial business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of our Initial Public Offering registration statement, or by August 8, 2024 (the "**Nasdaq Deadline**"). We did not complete our Initial Business Combination prior to the Nasdaq Deadline. As a result, we were in violation of Nasdaq IM-5101-2.

As previously reported, on July 30, 2024, the Company received a notice ("**Delisting Notice**") from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq, which stated that, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "**Panel**") by August 6, 2024 for additional time to complete a business combination, trading of the Company's securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market would be suspended at the opening of business on August 8, 2024, due to the Company's non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement.

On August 8, 2024, trading in the Company's securities was suspended on Nasdaq. The securities are now quoted on Over-the-Counter (OTC) markets under the same symbols.

The following material consequence may occur as a result of our delisting:

● the price of our securities will likely decrease as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with being listed on Nasdaq;

● holders may be unable to sell or purchase our securities when they wish to do so;

● we may become subject to shareholder litigation;

● we may lose the interest of institutional investors in our securities;

● we may lose media and analyst coverage; and

● we would likely lose any active trading market for our securities, as our securities are currently traded only on OTC markets

*The Buyer, our insiders, officers, and directors, control a substantial interest in us and thus may influence certain actions requiring a stockholder vote.*

The Buyer, our insiders, officers, and directors collectively beneficially own approximately 70% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, our insiders, officers, directors or their affiliates could determine in the future to make such purchases in the open market or in private transactions, to the extent permitted by law, in order to influence the vote. In connection with any vote for a proposed business combination, our insiders, officers, and directors have agreed to vote the shares of common stock owned by them immediately before the Initial Public Offering as well as any shares of common stock acquired in the Initial Public Offering or in the aftermarket in favor of such proposed business combination, and therefore will have a significant influence on the vote.

*If we seek stockholder approval of our business combination, our Sponsor, founders, directors, officers, and their affiliates may elect to purchase shares from stockholders, in which case they may influence a vote in favor of a proposed business combination that you do not support.*

If we seek stockholder approval of our business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our Sponsor, founders, directors, officers, or their affiliates may purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions either prior to or following the consummation of our initial business combination. Such purchases will not be made if our Sponsor, founders, directors, officers, or their affiliates are in possession of any material non-public information that has not been disclosed to the selling stockholder. Such a purchase would include a contractual acknowledgement that such stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares of common stock is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that our Sponsor, founders, directors, officers, or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares of common stock. It is intended that, if Rule 10b-18 would apply to purchases by our Sponsor, founders, directors, officers, or their affiliates, then such purchases will comply with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, to the extent it applies, which provides a safe harbor for purchases made under certain conditions, including with respect to timing, pricing and volume of purchases.

The purpose of such purchases would be to (1) increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of the business combination or (2) 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 the business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. This may result in the consummation of an initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible.

*Our board of directors is divided into three classes and, therefore, our insiders will continue to exert control over us until the closing of a business combination.*

Our board of directors 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. It is unlikely that there will be an annual meeting of stockholders to elect new directors prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, in which case all of the current directors will continue in office until at least the consummation of the business combination. If there is an annual meeting, as a consequence of our "staggered" board of directors, fewer than half of the board of directors will be considered for election and our insiders, because of their ownership position, will have considerable influence regarding the outcome. Accordingly, our insiders will continue to exert control at least until the consummation of our initial business combination.

*Our management team is not experienced in pursuing business combinations on behalf of blank check companies.*

Other blank check companies may be sponsored and managed by individuals with prior experience in completing business combinations between blank check companies and target businesses. Our managements' lack of experience may not be viewed favorably by target businesses.

 

 

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Not applicable.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

As a blank check company, we have no operations and therefore do not have any operations of our own that face material cybersecurity threats. However, we do depend on the digital technologies of third parties, including information systems, infrastructure and cloud applications and services, any sophisticated and deliberate attacks on, or security breaches in, systems or infrastructure or the cloud that we utilize, including those of third parties, could lead to corruption or misappropriation of our assets, proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. Because of our reliance on the technologies of third parties, we also depend upon the personnel and the processes of third parties to protect against cybersecurity threats, and we have no personnel or processes of our own for this purpose. In the event of a cybersecurity incident impacting us, the management team will report to the board of directors and provide updates on the management team's incident response plan for addressing and mitigating any risks associated with such an incident. As an early-stage company without significant investments in data security protection, we may not be sufficiently protected against such occurrences. We also lack sufficient resources to adequately protect against, or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to, cyber incidents. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have material adverse consequences on our business and lead to financial loss.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We currently maintain our principal executive offices at 1221 Brickell Avenue, Miami, FL, and our telephone number is 786-432-7588. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not Applicable.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our units began to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol "IMAQU" on or about July 29, 2021, and the shares of common stock, rights and warrants began separate trading on Nasdaq under the symbols "IMAQ," "IMAQR" and "IMAQW," respectively, on or about August 17, 2021. Units not separated continued to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol "IMAQU", until the Company's securities were delisted on August 8, 2024. Subsequent to the delisting, the Company's units, common stock, rights and warrants are now quoted on Over-the-Counter (OTC) markets under the same symbols.

Holders of Record

As of March 31, 2026, there were 6,836,594 of our shares of common stock issued and outstanding held by approximately 10 stockholders of record (including shares underlying units). The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of shares of common stock whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies.

Dividends

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of an initial business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to a business combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. It is the present intention of our board of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board of directors does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring any share dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

None.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on January 15, 2021, in Delaware and formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this Annual Report as our "initial business combination". We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the "**Initial Public Offering**") and the private placement of the Private Units (as defined below), the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our initial business combination (pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering or otherwise), shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.

The issuance of additional shares in connection with an initial business combination:

● may significantly dilute the equity interest of our investors who would not have pre-emption rights in respect of any such issuance;

● may subordinate the rights of holders of shares of common stock if we issue shares of preferred stock with rights senior to those afforded to our shares of common stock;

● could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;

● may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and

● may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock, rights and/or warrants.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt, it could result in:

● default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

● acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

● our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;

● our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;

● using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common stock if declared, our ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and acquisitions, and fund other general corporate purposes;

● limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;

● increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;

● limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of our strategy; and

● other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial business combination plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial business combination will be successful.

Recent Developments

 

*Issuance of Unsecured Promissory Note D*

On March 28, 2025, the Company issued Promissory Note D in the aggregate principal amount of up to $600,000 to the Buyer. Pursuant to Promissory Note D, the Buyer agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $600,000. The Promissory Note D shall be payable promptly on demand and in any event, no later than the date on which the Company terminates or consummates an initial business combination. The Promissory Note D is convertible into units consisting of one share of Common Stock of the Company and one right to receive one-twentieth of one share of Common Stock of the Company (together, the "**Promissory Note D Conversion Securities**"), with no fractional Promissory Note D Conversion Securities to be issued upon conversion, and has the right to be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Promissory Note D does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note D will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

The foregoing description of Promissory Note D does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Promissory Note D, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 28, 2025, and incorporated by reference herein.

*Extension Payments*

On each of January 2, 2024, February 1, 2024, March 6, 2024, April 5, 2024, April 29, 2024, May 28, 2024, June 25, 2024, August 5, 2024, September 4, 2024, September 27, 2024, October 28, 2024 and November 27, 2024, the Company made a deposit of $20,000 to the trust account to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination from January 2, 2024 to January 2, 2025.

*Amendments to Promissory Notes – Related Party*

*Merger Agreement with VCI Holdings Limited and Vietnam Biofuels Development Joint Stock Company*

On April 3, 2025, the Company entered into a merger agreement (the "**Original Merger Agreement**") with VCI Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company (the "**VCI**") and Vietnam Biofuels Development Joint Stock Company, a Vietnamese company ("**VNB**").

Following the closing of the Reincorporation Merger (the "**Closing**"), certain shareholders (the "**Earnout Shareholders**") shall have the right to receive up to an aggregate of 27,000,000 Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares (subject to equitable adjustment for share splits, dividends, and similar events), which shall vest as follows: (i) 10,000,000 Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares if the volume-weighted average price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $15.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period during the five years following the Closing; (ii) 15,000,000 Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares if the consolidated revenue and other income equals or exceeds $500,000,000 for any four consecutive fiscal quarters during the five years commencing from the first day of the fiscal quarter following the Closing; and (iii) 2,000,000 Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares if the Purchaser declares a dividend of at least $20,000,000 in cash or equivalent value in treasury shares within three years following the Closing.

The Share Purchase, the Reincorporation Merger, the Redomestication, and other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "**VCI Business Combination**") are expected to be consummated after obtaining the required approval by the shareholders of the Company and VCI and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties thereto. The consummation of the proposed Merger is subject to certain conditions as further described in the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing description of the RW Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the RW Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 9, 2025, and incorporated by reference herein.

*VCI Loan Agreement*

On April 20, 2025, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing unsecured loan (the "**VCI Loan Agreement")** to provide a maximum aggregate amount of $499,900 (the "**VCI Loan**") to VCI and VNB (collectively referred to as the "**Borrower**") to be used by the Borrower exclusively for the expenses directly arising out of the VCI Business Combination (the "**Transaction**") or as otherwise agreed upon by the Company. As of March 31, 2026, the Company provided $499,900 loan to VCI in pursuant to this agreement.

The VCI Loan bears no interest and the Borrower shall repay the principal amount of the VCI Loan within thirty (30) days of the earlier of: (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement, except where such termination shall have resulted from material breach by the Company of the Merger Agreement, then the VCI Loan shall be waived, (ii) the date on which the parties determine that the parties will not be able to consummate the Transaction. VCI and VNB will be jointly and severally liable for the repayment of the principal amount of the VCI Loan.

*Equity Line of Credit Agreement*

 

On April 20, 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the "**Equity Line Agreement**") with White Lion Capital LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("**Investor**"). Under the terms of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Investor to purchase shares of the Company's common stock up to $300,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of the Company's common stock, with an option for the Company to increase this amount to $500,000,000 (the "**Commitment Amount**"), subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms by the Equity Line Agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by a business combination agreement (the "**BCA Closing**"), the Company will assign the Equity Line Agreement to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall be deemed to be the Company as if it were the original signatory to the Equity Line Agreement.

Pursuant to terms of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares to be acquired by the Investor within thirty (30) days following the BCA Closing.

The Company's right to drawdown from the Equity Line will commence on the first trading day following the Closing and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investor shall have purchased an aggregate number of Purchase Notice Shares (as defined in Equity Line Agreement) pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement equal to the Commitment Amount or (ii) 36 months following the first trading day upon the Closing with an option to increase to 60 months at the Company's sole discretion following $100,000,000 in gross investment by the Investor (the "**Commitment Period**"), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Agreement, as described in more detail below.

During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Line Agreement, including that there be an effective registration statement relating to the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, the Company may deliver written purchase notices (each a "**Regular Purchase Notice**") to the Investor when the Company exercises its right to sell shares (the delivery date of any such notice, the "Regular Purchase Notice Date"). the Investor's purchase price will be the lower of (i) the closing price of the Company's common Stock prior to the receipt of the applicable Regular Purchase Notice or (ii) the product of (a) the lowest daily volume-weighted average price of the Company's common stock during the two (2) consecutive business days commencing on and including the Regular Purchase Notice Date and (b) ninety-eight percent (98%). Investor's committed obligation under each Regular Purchase Notice shall not exceed $5,000,000 and the number of share sold pursuant to the Regular Purchase Notice may not exceed the lesser of (i) 40% of the previous 5-days' Average Daily Trading Volume immediately preceding receipt of the Regular Purchase Notice or (ii) $5,000,000 divided by the highest closing price of the Company's common stock over the most recent five (5) Business Days immediately preceding the receipt of the Regular Purchase Notice (the "**Regular Purchase Limit**"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may waive the Regular Purchase Limit at any time to allow the Investor to purchase additional shares under a Regular Purchase Notice.

In addition, during the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Line Agreement, including that there be an effective registration statement relating to the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, the Company may deliver a written rapid purchase notice (the "**Rapid Purchase Notice**") to the Investor when the Company exercises its right to sell shares (the delivery date of such notice, the "**Rapid Purchase Notice Date**"). The Investor's rapid purchase price will be 98% of the lowest traded price of the Company's common stock 1 hour following the confirmation of the receipt of the Rapid Purchase Notice by the Investor.

The Investor's committed obligation under the Rapid Purchase Notice shall not exceed $5,000,000, and the number of shares sold pursuant to the Rapid Purchase Notice may not exceed $5,000,000 divided by the highest closing price of the Company's common stock over the most recent five Business Days immediately preceding receipt of the subject Purchase Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may waive the Rapid Purchase Notice Limit at any time to allow the Investor to purchase additional shares under a Rapid Purchase Notice.

The Company is not entitled to draw on the Equity Line Agreement unless each of the following additional conditions is satisfied: (i) a registration statement is and remains effective for the resale of securities in connection with the Equity Line Agreement; (ii) each of the Company' representations and warranties set forth in the Equity Line Agreement is true and correct (subject to qualifications as to materiality set forth therein) as of such time; (iii) the Company shall have complied with its obligations in all material respects; (iv) no statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling, or injunction shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated, or adopted by any court or governmental authority that prohibits or directly and materially adversely affects any of the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, and no proceeding shall have been commenced that may have the effect of prohibiting or materially adversely affecting any of the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement; (v) since the date of filing of the Company's most recent annual report or quarterly report filed pursuant to the Exchange Act, no event that had or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred; (vi) the trading of the Company's common stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or the Principal Market, or otherwise halted for any reason; (vii) the number of Purchase Notice Shares purchased by Investor is limited to the beneficial ownership limitation, which is 4.99% of outstanding shares, or up to 9.99% with 61 days' notice; (viii) the Company shall be free from any "stock promotion" flag; (ix) the Company shall have no knowledge of any event more likely than not to have the effect of causing the effectiveness of the registration statement to be suspended or any prospectus or prospectus supplement failing to meet the requirement of Sections 5(b) or 10 of the Securities Act; (x) the issuance of the Purchase Notice Shares shall not violate the shareholder approval requirements of the Principal Market; (xi) the Company's common Stock must be DWAC Eligible and not subject to a "DTC chill"; (xii) all reports, schedules, registrations, forms, statements, information and other documents required to have been filed by us with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934 shall have been filed with the SEC within the applicable time periods prescribed for such filings; (xiii) the Exchange Cap has not been reached; (xiv) the irrevocable transfer agent instructions shall have been delivered by the Company to, and acknowledged in writing by, the transfer agent of the Company; and (xv) certain other conditions as set forth in the Equity Line Agreement.

In consideration of the Investor's execution and delivery of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue common stock equal to $1,000,000 divided by the closing price of the Company's Common stock on the earlier of (i) the Business Day prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and (ii) the Business Day prior to the date that the Investor delivers a written request to the Company for the Commitment Shares (provided that such request cannot be within 180 days following the Closing). For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Commitment Shares shall only be fully earned upon a successful Closing with VCI and the issuance of the Commitment Shares is contingent upon the Closing with VCI.

The foregoing description of the Equity Line Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Equity Line Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 22, 2025, and incorporated by reference herein.

*Issuance of Unsecured Promissory Note – Wei-Hua Chang*

On April 20, 2025, the Company issued Promissory Note E in the aggregate principal amount of up to $3,000,000 to the Promissory Note E Lender. Pursuant to the Promissory Note E, the Promissory Note E Lender agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $3,000,000. The Promissory Note E shall be payable promptly on demand and in any event, no later than the date on which the Company terminates or consummates an initial business combination. The Promissory Note E is convertible into Promissory Note E Conversion Securities, with no fractional Promissory Note E Conversion Securities to be issued upon conversion, and has the right to be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Promissory Note E does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note E will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

The foregoing description of Promissory Note E does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Promissory Note E, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 22, 2025, and incorporated by reference herein.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities for the period from January 15, 2021 (inception), through March 31, 2026, were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the IPO, and, after IPO, related to identifying a target company and executing a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents held after the Initial Public Offering. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the year ended March 31, 2026, we had a net loss of $344,794 which reflects the combined effects of interest income on investments held in the trust account of $126,434 and change in warrant liability of $7,093, offset by operating costs of $460,999 and income tax provision of $17,322.

For the year ended March 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $408,107, which reflects the combined effects of interest income on investments held in the trust account of $502,745 and change in warrant liability of $12,749, offset by operating costs of $800,845 (net of $142,306 liabilities written back), and income tax provision of $122,756.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On August 2, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 units (the "**Units**"), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock ("**Public Share**"), one right ("**Public Right**") and one redeemable warrant ("**Public Warrant**"). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-twentieth of one share of common stock at the closing of our initial business combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase three-fourths of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Prior Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 714,400 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit ($7,144,000 in the aggregate). Each Private Unit consists of one share of common stock ("**Private Share**"), one right ("**Private Right**") and one warrant ("**Private Warrant**"). Each Private Right entitles the holder to receive one-twentieth of one share of common stock at the closing of our initial business combination. Each Private Warrant entitles the holder to purchase three-fourths of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share.

The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the trust account. If we do not complete our initial business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds of 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 be worthless. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to the rights and warrants included in the Private Units.

On August 6, 2021, in connection with the underwriters' exercise in full of their option to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, we consummated the sale of an additional 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the exercise of the over-allotment option, we consummated the sale of an additional 82,500 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement to our Prior Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $825,000.

We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the private placement, including the funds held in the trust account, in connection with our initial business combination and to pay our expenses relating thereto, including deferred underwriting commissions payable to the underwriters in an amount equal to 3.5% ($8,050,000) of the total gross proceeds raised in the Initial Public Offering upon consummation of our initial business combination. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business' operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders' fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our initial business combination if the funds available to us outside of the trust account were insufficient to cover such expenses.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had no cash and a working capital deficit of $7,219,045. The Company 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. The Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon consummation of its Business Combination, in which case, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

Management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs or to complete a Business Combination by July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it fully exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination), 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 earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to IMAQ to pay income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ, 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 IMAQ's remaining stockholders and their board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to IMAQ's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, if a Business Combination not occur, raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after July 2, 2026 (or January 2, 2027, if it exercises its option to extend the date to consummate a business combination). Management plans to continue to draw down the funds on its promissory notes, repayable promptly on demand and, in any event, no later than the date on which the Company terminates or consummates an initial business combination. There is no assurance that the Company's plans to consummate a business combination will be successful.

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 our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (January 2, 2027), 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 an additional condition also raises 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms by the Equity Line Agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by a business combination agreement (the "**BCA Closing**"), the Company will assign the Equity Line Agreement to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall be deemed to be the Company as if it were the original signatory to the Equity Line Agreement.

Pursuant to terms of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares to be acquired by the Investor within thirty (30) days following the BCA Closing.

The Company's right to drawdown from the Equity Line will commence on the first trading day following the Closing and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investor shall have purchased an aggregate number of Purchase Notice Shares (as defined in Equity Line Agreement) pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement equal to the Commitment Amount or (ii) 36 months following the first trading day upon the Closing with an option to increase to 60 months at the Company's sole discretion following $100,000,000 in gross investment by the Investor (the "**Commitment Period**"), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Agreement, as described in more detail below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified critical accounting estimates; we have identified the following critical accounting policies:

*Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock*

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. As the Public Shares are considered to be redeemable at fair value, and a redemption at fair value does not amount to a distribution different than other stockholders, redeemable and non-redeemable common stock are presented as one class of stock in calculating net loss per share. Warrants and rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and private placement have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. As these warrants are not exercisable until the consummation of a Business Combination, the diluted net income or loss per share remains identical to the basic net income or loss per share.

*Warrant Liability*

We account 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 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 our common stock, 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 annual period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

*Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption*

All of the remaining Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with our liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the initial business combination and in connection with certain amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff's guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within our control require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all redeemable Public Shares have been classified outside of permanent equity.

We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

Recent Accounting Standards

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker ("**CODM**"), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and 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, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of March 31, 2025. ****

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure" ("**ASU 2023-09**"). ASU 2023-09 mostly requires, on an annual basis, disclosure of specific categories in an entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The incremental disclosures may be presented on a prospective or retrospective basis. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2023-09 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of March 31, 2026, due to the previously reported material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company's accounting for complex financial instruments and stock-based compensation. We also have a material weakness in our internal control surrounding the review of accounts payable and accrued expenses to ensure expense recognition in the proper period. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Form 10-K present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Management's Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

1. pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company,

2. provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and

3. provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at March 31, 2026. In making these assessments, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessments and those criteria, due to our determination of the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls, as described above, management determined that we failed to maintain an effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2026.

Management has implemented remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we increased layers of review for record keeping and bookkeeping. We plan to further improve this process by identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications and consideration of additional staff to supplement existing accounting professionals.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to our status as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Number and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors

Our board of directors consists of four directors. The term of office for director Ming-Hsien Hsu will expire at the Company's annual meeting to be held in 2026; and the term of office for directors Tao-Chou Chang, and Hsu-Kao Cheng will expire at the Company's annual meeting to be held in 2027. The term of office for Yu-Fang Chiu will expire at the Company's annual general meeting to be held in 2028.

Our officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. Our board of directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our bylaws as it deems appropriate. Our bylaws provide that the board of directors at its first meeting after each annual meeting of stockholders shall choose a Chief Executive Officer and a Secretary, none of whom need be a member of the board of directors. The Secretary position is currently vacant. The board of directors may also choose a Chairman from among the directors, one or more Executive Vice Presidents, one or more Vice Presidents, Assistant Secretaries, Treasurers and Assistant Treasurers. The board of directors may appoint such other officers and agents as it shall deem necessary, who shall hold their offices for such terms and shall exercise such powers and perform such duties as shall be determined from time to time by the board of directors. The same person may hold two or more offices.

Director Independence

Nasdaq requires that a majority of our board must be composed of "independent directors," which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company's board of directors would interfere with the director's exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

The Board of Directors has determined that one of its four directors, Yu-Fang Chiu, is a non-independent director of the Company and three of its four directors, Ming-Hsien Hsu, Hsu-Kao Cheng and Tao-Chou Chang are "independent" directors as defined in the applicable Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. The Board of Directors is composed of a majority of independent directors. The Company's audit committee consists of three independent directors – Ming-Hsien Hsu, Hsu-Kao Cheng and Tao-Chou Chang. Mr. Hsu-Kao Cheng is the chair of the audit committee. Our officers are appointed by the Board of Directors and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors, rather than for specific terms of office.

Our independent directors will have meetings at which only independent directors are present.

We will only enter into transactions with our officers and directors and their respective affiliates that are on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from independent parties. Any related-party transactions must be approved by our audit committee and a majority of disinterested directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has two standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, Nasdaq rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and Nasdaq rules require that the compensation committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.

*Audit Committee*

Our Audit Committee has been established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act and consists of Ming-Hsien Hsu, Hsu-Kao Cheng and Tao-Chou Chang, each of whom is an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards and under Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act. Hsu-Kao Cheng is the Chairperson of the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee's duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

● reviewing and discussing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;

● discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;

● discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;

● monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;

● verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;

● reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;

● inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

● pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;

● appointing or replacing the independent auditor;

● determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;

● establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and

● approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.

*Financial Experts on Audit Committee*

Pursuant to Nasdaq rules, the audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of "independent directors" who are able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company's balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and our board of directors has determined that Mr. Hsu-Kao Cheng qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC, which generally is any person who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual's financial sophistication.

*Director nominations*

We do not have a standing nominating committee, though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required to do so by law or NASDAQ rules. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(2) of the NASDAQ rules, a majority of the independent directors may recommend a director nominee for selection by the board of directors. The board of directors believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry out the responsibility of properly selecting or approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee. Ming-Hsien Hsu, Hsu-Kao Cheng and Tao-Chou Chang will participate in the consideration and recommendation of director nominees. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(1)(A) of the NASDAQ rules, all such directors are independent. As there is no standing nominating committee, we do not have a nominating committee charter in place.

The board of directors will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our stockholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of stockholders). Our stockholders that wish to nominate a director for election to the Board should follow the procedures set forth in our bylaws.

We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders.

*Compensation Committee*

Our Compensation Committee consists of Ming-Hsien Hsu, Hsu-Kao Cheng and Tao-Chou Chang, each of whom is an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards. Hsu-Kao Cheng is the Chairperson of the compensation committee. The compensation committee's duties, which are specified in our Compensation Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

● reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer's compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer's performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer's based on such evaluation;

● reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other executive officers and reviewing and making recommendations with respect to all non-executive officer compensation;

● reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;

● implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;

● assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

● approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers and employees;

● producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

● reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as indicated above, no compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing stockholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the compensation committee will only be responsible for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements to be entered into in connection with such initial business combination.

Code of Ethics

We adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business. You may review our Code of Ethics by accessing our public filings at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of our Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Insider Trading Policies

We have adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by directors, officers and employees and their respective immediate family members, which are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable Nasdaq listing standards while they are in possession of material nonpublic information (the "**Insider Trading Policy**").

The foregoing description of the Insider Trading Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Insider Trading Policy, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on July 15, 2025, and incorporated by reference herein.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our shares of common stock and other equity securities. These executive officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons.

Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were filed in a timely manner.

However, such individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of directors and audit committee, which includes persons who may seek reimbursement, or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged.

*Founder Shares*

On February 9, 2021, the Prior Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 to cover certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for the issuance of 5,750,000 share of common stock (the "**Founder Shares**"). The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares of common stock subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Prior Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (not including the Private Units and underlying securities and assuming the Prior Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering). On August 6, 2021, the underwriters' exercised the over-allotment option in full, thus these shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Prior Sponsor and the other holders of the Founder Shares (the "**initial stockholders**") have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination and the date on which the closing price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of an initial Business Combination and, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination, or earlier in each case if, subsequent to an initial Business Combination, the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company's stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

On July 7, 2021, the Prior Sponsor entered into agreements with two independent directors of the Company to transfer 95,000 Founder Shares to each director, subject to and upon closing of the Company's initial business combination.

On July 22, 2021, the Prior Sponsor sold 30,000 of its Founder Shares to each of the Initial Independent Directors (or 150,000 Founder Shares in total) for cash consideration of approximately $0.004 per share. These awards are subject to ASC 718. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recognized compensation expense in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares sold times the grant date fair value per share less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founder Shares.

The Promissory Note B is convertible into units having the same terms and conditions as the private placement units as described in the Prospectus, at the price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the Buyer. The Promissory Note B does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note B will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

On February 27, 2024, the Company issued Promissory Note C in the aggregate principal amount of up to $470,000 to the Buyer. Pursuant to Promissory Note C, the Buyer agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $470,000. The Promissory Note C shall be payable promptly on demand and in any event, no later than the date on which the Company terminates or consummates an initial business combination.

Pursuant to the Amendments to the JC Unify Prior Notes, the Buyer has the right to convert the JC Unify Prior Notes into the JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities, with no fractional JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities to be issued upon conversion. If the Buyer elects to convert the JC Unify Prior Notes into JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities, the JC Unify Prior Notes shall be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Amendments to the JC Unify Prior Notes also amended the events of default, so that the failure of the Company to issue JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities constitutes a failure to make required payments, constituting an event of default.

On March 28, 2025, the Company issued Promissory Note D in the aggregate principal amount of up to $600,000 to the Buyer. Pursuant to Promissory Note D, the Buyer agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $600,000.

The Promissory Note D does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note D will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, $2,900,000 and $2,659,713 were outstanding, respectively, under all the promissory notes due to JC Unify.

*Due to Prior Sponsor*

The Company received additional funds from the Prior Sponsor to finance term extension fees, and the Buyer to pay various expenses of the Company. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the amount due to related parties was $656,913 and $656,913, respectively.

*Administrative Support Agreement*

The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering, to pay the Prior Sponsor up to a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. In April 2023, the agreement was terminated and the amount due was waived. Since then, no further payment has accrued or paid under this agreement. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the amount outstanding under this agreement is $0. No further payment has accrued or paid under this agreement.

*Related Party – Working Capital Loans*

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders or an affiliate of the initial stockholders or certain of the Company's directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required ("**Working Capital Loans**"). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such 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 Private Units.

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had no borrowings under the related party loans.

*General*

Our Prior Sponsor, Buyer, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, are entitled to be reimbursed for certain bona-fide, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on behalf of the Company such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. The Company's audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Company's Prior Sponsor, Buyer, officers, directors or the Company's or their affiliates 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 our behalf.

No compensation or fees of any kind, including finder's fees, consulting fees and other similar fees, will be paid to the Company's insiders or any of the members of the Company's management team, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the consummation of the initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of the Company's officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by the Company to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by the Company's audit committee and a majority of the Company's uninterested "independent" directors, or the members of the Company board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. The Company will not enter into any such transaction unless the Company's audit committee and a majority of the Company's disinterested "independent" directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to the Company than those that would be available to the Company with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

Related Party Policy

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position

We also require each of our directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors' and officers' questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

Our Prior Sponsor, our Buyer, officers and directors are, and may become a sponsor, an officer or director of other special purpose acquisition companies with a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding that, such officers and directors will continue to have a pre-existing fiduciary obligation to us, and we will, therefore, have priority over any special purpose acquisition companies they subsequently join.

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, we have agreed not to consummate our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our insiders, officers or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. In no event will our insiders, or any of the members of our management team be paid any finder's fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

Director Independence

Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our board of directors be independent. For a description of the director independence, see "- *Part III, Item 10 - Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance"*.

Changes in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

As previously disclosed, on June 24, 2023, upon the approval of its Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "**Audit Committee**") of the Company, the Company dismissed Marcum LLP ("**Marcum**") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

The report of Marcum on such financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

As previously disclosed, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and the subsequent interim periods through the date of dismissal, there have been no: (i) disagreements (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements or (ii) "reportable events" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The Company provided Marcum a copy of the foregoing disclosure and requested that Marcum provide a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission confirming their agreement with such disclosure.

As previously disclosed, on June 24, 2023, upon the approval of the Audit Committee, the Company engaged Mercurius & Associates LLP ("**Mercurius**") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, effective immediately.

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of International Media Acquisition Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of International Media Acquisition Corp., (the "Company") as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2026, 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 at March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2026, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the Financial Statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $15,221,442 and $14,852,574 as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively and the Company has a working capital deficit of $7,219,045 and $6,796,724 as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. Further, the Company has incurred and expects 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. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the uncertainty in the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding this uncertainty are also described in the Note 1 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

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 audits 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The Critical Audit Matter are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

International Media Acquisition Corp. ("**IMAQ**" or the "**Company**") is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on January 15, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a "**Business Combination**"). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region 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 March 31, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 15, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2026, related to the Company's formation and initial public offering ("**Initial Public Offering**"), which is described below, and identifying a target Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest and dividend income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company had selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. On August 16, 2022, the board of directors of International Media Acquisition Corp. approved a change to the Company's fiscal year end from December 31 to March 31, in accordance with the Company's Bylaws.

The registration statement filed in connection with the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 28, 2021. On August 2, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 units (the "**Units**"), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 714,400 units (the "**Private Units**"), at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to the Company's prior sponsor, Content Creation Media LLC (the "**Prior Sponsor**"), generating gross proceeds of $7,144,000, which is described in Note 4.

On August 6, 2021, in connection with the underwriters' exercise in full of their option to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 3,000,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the exercise of the over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 82,500 Private Units, at a price of$10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement to the Prior Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $825,000.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in a trust account (the "**Trust Account**") and was invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "**Investment Company Act**"), with a maturity of 180 days 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, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in the Trust Account, as described below.

The Company will provide the holders (the "**public stockholders**") of the shares of common stock included in the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (the "**Public Shares**") 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 $10.00 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 income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company's rights or warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("**FASB**") Accounting Standards Codification ("**ASC**") Topic 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("**ASC 480**").

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if, assuming a quorum is present at the stockholder meeting, the Business Combination is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other 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 other 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. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Prior Sponsor and the other holders of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) have agreed to vote their Founder Shares, their Private Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or don't vote at all.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation 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 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 20% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Prior Sponsor and the other initial stockholders (as defined in Note 5) have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their liquidation rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete (a Business Combination and (c) 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 within 12 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. However, if the Prior Sponsor and the other initial stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, 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 (as defined below).

The Company initially had 12 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination (the **"Initial Combination Period**").

As approved by its stockholders at the July 2022 Special Meeting, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**July 2022 Charter Amendment**") which became effective upon filing.

The January 2024Charter Amendment extended the deadline by which IMAQ must consummate an initial business combination for twelve (12) additional one (1) month periods from January 2, 2024 to January 2, 2025 provided that, in connection with each one-month extension, a deposit of $20,000 is made into the Trust Account established in connection with the Company's initial public offering. Stockholders also approved an amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**NTA Charter Amendment**") to expand the methods by which the Company may avoid being deemed a "penny stock" under the Rule 419 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On December 30, 2024, the Company held an annual meeting of stockholders (the "**December 2024 Annual Meeting**"). As approved by its stockholders at the December 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**December 2024 Charter Amendment**") which became effective upon filing. The December 2024 Charter Amendment extended the deadline by which IMAQ has to consummate an initial business combination for twenty-four (24) additional one (1) month periods from January 2, 2025 to January 2, 2027 ("**Combination Period**") provided that, in connection with each one-month extension, a deposit of $2,000 is made into the Trust Account established in connection with the Company's initial public offering (see "Annual Meeting" section below).

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period(as defined below), 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 outstanding Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation 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 holders of common stock and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Company's 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 the Company's rights and warrants, which will expire worthless 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 commissions (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 Prior Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party 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 (1) $10.00 per Public Share or (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 $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less income and other tax obligations owed by IMAQ payable, provided that such 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 nor will it apply 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**"). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Prior 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 Prior Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except 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 Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties thereto. The consummation of the proposed Merger is subject to certain conditions as further described in the Merger Agreement.

Voting and Support Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Original Merger Agreement, IMAQ, VCI, VNB and a shareholder of VCI (the "**Supporting Shareholder**") entered into a voting and support agreement (the "**Support Agreement**") pursuant to which such Supporting Shareholder has agreed, among other things, to vote in favor of the share purchase, the adoption of the Merger Agreement and any other matters necessary or reasonably requested by the Company and the Purchaser or VCI for consummation of the share purchase and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

In addition, the Supporting Shareholder has agreed not to sell, assign, encumber, pledge, hypothecate, dispose, loan or otherwise transfer the shares of VCI owned of record and beneficially by such Supporting Shareholders or over which such Supporting Shareholders have voting power, prior to the earlier to occur of (a) the closing of the share purchase, (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement, and (c) written agreement of the applicable Support Agreement and the Company and the Purchaser.

Agreement Regarding Representations and Warranties

Concurrently with the execution of the Original Merger Agreement, IMAQ and certain principal shareholders of VNB (the "**Principal Shareholders**") and VCI entered into an agreement (the "**RW Agreement**") pursuant to which each of the Principal Shareholders represents and warrants to the Company and the Purchaser that the representations and warranties contained in Article IV (*Representations and Warranties of the Company Group)* of the Original Merger Agreement are true, correct and complete as of the date of the RW Agreement and as of the Closing Date.

VCI Loan Agreement

On April 20, 2025, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing unsecured loan (the "**VCI Loan Agreement**") to provide a maximum aggregate amount of $499,900 (the "**VCI Loan**") to VNB and VCI (collectively referred to as the "**Borrower**") to be used by the Borrower exclusively for the expenses directly arising out of the VCI Business Combination (the "**Transaction**") or as otherwise agreed upon by the Company. As of March 31, 2026, the Company provided $499,900 loan to VCI in pursuant to this agreement.

The VCI Loan bears no interest and the Borrower shall repay the principal amount of the VCI Loan within thirty (30) days of the earlier of: (i) the termination of the Original Merger Agreement, except where such termination shall have resulted from material breach by the Company of the Original Merger Agreement, then the VCI Loan shall be waived, (ii) the date on which the parties determine that the parties will not be able to consummate the Transaction. VCI and VNB will be jointly and severally liable for the repayment of the principal amount of the VCI Loan. Upon a successful consummation of the Transaction, the VCI Loan repayment may be waived at the option of the Borrower.

Equity Line of Credit Agreement

On April 20, 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the "**Equity Line Agreement**") with White Lion Capital LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("**Investor**"). Under the terms of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Investor to purchase shares of the Company's common stock up to $300,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of the Company's common stock, with an option for the Company to increase this amount to $500,000,000 (the "**Commitment Amount**"), subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms by the Equity Line Agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by a business combination agreement (the "**BCA Closing**"), the Company will assign the Equity Line Agreement to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall be deemed to be the Company as if it were the original signatory to the Equity Line Agreement.

Pursuant to terms of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares to be acquired by the Investor within thirty (30) days following the closing of the BCA Closing.

The Company's right to drawdown from the Equity Line will commence on the first trading day following the Closing and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investor shall have purchased an aggregate number of Purchase Notice Shares (as defined in Equity Line Agreement) pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement equal to the Commitment Amount or (ii) 36 months following the first trading day upon the Closing with an option to increase to 60 months at the Company's sole discretion following $100,000,000 in gross investment by the Investor (the "**Commitment Period**"), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Agreement, as described in more detail below.

During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Line Agreement, including that there be an effective registration statement relating to the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, the Company may deliver written purchase notices (each a "**Regular Purchase Notice**") to the Investor when the Company exercises its right to sell shares (the delivery date of any such notice, the "**Regular Purchase Notice Date**"). the Investor's purchase price will be the lower of (i) the closing price of the Company's common Stock prior to the receipt of the applicable Regular Purchase Notice or (ii) the product of (a) the lowest daily volume-weighted average price of the Company's common stock during the two (2) consecutive business days commencing on and including the Regular Purchase Notice Date and (b) ninety-eight percent (98%). Investor's committed obligation under each Regular Purchase Notice shall not exceed $5,000,000 and the number of share sold pursuant to the Regular Purchase Notice may not exceed the lesser of (i) 40% of the previous 5-days' Average Daily Trading Volume immediately preceding receipt of the Regular Purchase Notice or (ii) $5,000,000 divided by the highest closing price of the Company's common stock over the most recent five (5) Business Days immediately preceding the receipt of the Regular Purchase Notice (the "**Regular Purchase Limit**"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may waive the Regular Purchase Limit at any time to allow the Investor to purchase additional shares under a Regular Purchase Notice.

In addition, during the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Line Agreement, including that there be an effective registration statement relating to the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, the Company may deliver a written rapid purchase notice (the "**Rapid Purchase Notice**") to the Investor when the Company exercises its right to sell shares (the delivery date of such notice, the "**Rapid Purchase Notice Date**"). The Investor's rapid purchase price will be 98% of the lowest traded price of the Company's common stock 1 hour following the confirmation of the receipt of the Rapid Purchase Notice by the Investor.

The Investor's committed obligation under the Rapid Purchase Notice shall not exceed $5,000,000, and the number of shares sold pursuant to the Rapid Purchase Notice may not exceed $5,000,000 divided by the highest closing price of the Company's common stock over the most recent five Business Days immediately preceding receipt of the subject Purchase Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may waive the Rapid Purchase Notice Limit at any time to allow the Investor to purchase additional shares under a Rapid Purchase Notice.

The Company is not entitled to draw on the Equity Line Agreement unless each of the following additional conditions is satisfied: (i) a registration statement is and remains effective for the resale of securities in connection with the Equity Line Agreement; (ii) each of the Company' representations and warranties set forth in the Equity Line Agreement is true and correct (subject to qualifications as to materiality set forth therein) as of such time; (iii) the Company shall have complied with its obligations in all material respects; (iv) no statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling, or injunction shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated, or adopted by any court or governmental authority that prohibits or directly and materially adversely affects any of the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement, and no proceeding shall have been commenced that may have the effect of prohibiting or materially adversely affecting any of the transactions contemplated by the Equity Line Agreement; (v) since the date of filing of the Company's most recent annual report or quarterly report filed pursuant to the Exchange Act, no event that had or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred; (vi) the trading of the Company's common stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or the Principal Market, or otherwise halted for any reason; (vii) the number of Purchase Notice Shares purchased by Investor is limited to the beneficial ownership limitation, which is 4.99% of outstanding shares, or up to 9.99% with 61 days' notice; (viii) the Company shall be free from any "stock promotion" flag; (ix) the Company shall have no knowledge of any event more likely than not to have the effect of causing the effectiveness of the registration statement to be suspended or any prospectus or prospectus supplement failing to meet the requirement of Sections 5(b) or 10 of the Securities Act; (x) the issuance of the Purchase Notice Shares shall not violate the shareholder approval requirements of the Principal Market; (xi) the Company's common Stock must be DWAC Eligible and not subject to a "DTC chill"; (xii) all reports, schedules, registrations, forms, statements, information and other documents required to have been filed by us with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934 shall have been filed with the SEC within the applicable time periods prescribed for such filings; (xiii) the Exchange Cap has not been reached; (xiv) the irrevocable transfer agent instructions shall have been delivered by the Company to, and acknowledged in writing by, the transfer agent of the Company; and (xv) certain other conditions as set forth in the Equity Line Agreement.

In consideration of the Investor's execution and delivery of the Equity Line Agreement, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue common stock equal to $1,000,000 divided by the closing price of the Company's Common stock on the earlier of (i) the Business Day prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and (ii) the Business Day prior to the date that the Investor delivers a written request to the Company for the Commitment Shares (provided that such request cannot be within 180 days following the Closing). For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Commitment Shares shall only be fully earned upon a successful Closing with VCI and the issuance of the Commitment Shares is contingent upon the Closing with VCI.

Extension Payment and Shares Redemption

Initially, the Company was required to complete its initial business combination transaction by August 2, 2022, which was 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the "**Initial Combination Period**"). On July 27, 2022, at July 2022 Special Meeting, the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Company's investment management trust agreement, dated as of July 28, 2021, by and between the Company and the Trustee, allowing the Company to extend the Initial Combination Period two times for an additional three months each time, or from August 2, 2022 to February 2, 2023 by depositing into the Trust Account $350,000 for each three-month extension. In connection with the proposal, the Company's public stockholders had the right to redeem their shares of common stock for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two days prior to such stockholder vote.

In connection with the July 2023 Special Meeting, the Company's public stockholders holding 63,395 shares of the Company's common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.89 per share.

as approved by its stockholders at the January 2024 Special Meeting, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "**January 2024 Charter Amendment**") which became effective upon filing. The January 2024 Charter Amendment extended the deadline by which IMAQ must consummate an initial business combination for twelve (12) additional one (1) month periods from January 2, 2024 to January 2, 2025 provided that, in connection with each one-month extension, a deposit of $20,000 is made into the Trust Account. Stockholders also approved NTA Charter Amendment to expand the methods by which the Company may avoid being deemed a "penny stock" under the Rule 419 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In connection with the January 2024 Special Meeting, the Company's stockholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 934,193 shares of common stock at a redemption price of approximately $11.43 per share.

The December 2024 Charter Amendment extended the deadline by which IMAQ has to consummate an initial business combination for twenty-four (24) additional one (1) month periods from January 2, 2025 to January 2, 2027 provided that, in connection with each one-month extension, a deposit of $2,000 is made into the Trust Account established in connection with the Company's initial public offering. Stockholders approved the proposal to allow the Company to undertake an initial business combination with any entity with its principal business operations in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). Stockholders also approved the Director Proposal to elect one Class I director to the Company's board of directors until the expiration of his or her term or until his or her respective successor has been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death. The term of the Class I directors will end at our annual meeting held in 2028. In connection with the December 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 685,836 shares of common stock at a redemption value of $7,919,296 (or approximately $11.55 per share).

Departure of Director or Certain Officers

On June 20, 2024, the Company received the resignation of Mr. Chih Young Hung as Director of the Company. Mr. Hung's resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. Mr. Hung was the Chair of the Company's Compensation Committee and Audit Committee.

On July 2, 2024, the Company received the resignation of Mr. Daung-Yen Lu as Director of the Company.

Mr. Lu was a member of the Company's Compensation Committee and Audit Committee.

On July 2, 2024, the Company received the resignation of Mr. Yu-Ping Tsai as Director of the Company. Mr. Tsai's resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. Mr. Tsai was a member of the Company's Compensation Committee and Audit Committee.

On July 4, 2024, the Company received the resignation of Mr. Claudius Tsang as Director of the Company. Mr. Tsang's resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

Delisting from the Nasdaq

On July 30, 2024, the Company received a notice ("**Delisting Notice**") from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq, which stated that, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "**Panel**") by August 6, 2024 for additional time to complete a business combination, trading of the Company's securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market would be suspended at the opening of business on August 8, 2024, due to the Company's non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement.

On August 8, 2024, trading in the Company's securities was suspended on Nasdaq. The securities are now quoted on Over-the-Counter (OTC) markets under the same symbols.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had cash of $0 and $241,548, and a working capital deficit of $7,219,045 and $6,796,724, respectively. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the Company received loans totaling $240,287 and $674,672 from JC Unify and the Promissory Note E Lender, respectively, to fund extension deposits and working capital needs. As a result of the monthly deposits into the Trust Account, the Company has until July 2, 2026 (unless the Company further extends the time to complete a Business Combination) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution.

The Company 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. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the accumulative deficit balance was $(15,221,442) and $(14,852,574), respectively. The Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon consummation of its Business Combination, in which case, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such 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 our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (January 2, 2027), 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 an additional condition also raises 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.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the current global economic uncertainty, rising interest rates, high inflation, high energy prices, supply chain disruptions, and the ongoing Venezuela, Russia/Ukraine/Belarus, Hamas/Iran/Lebanon/Israel in the Middle Eastern countries conflicts and/or other future global conflicts (including the impact of any sanctions imposed in response thereto) and the United States trade and tariff policy and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the risks and uncertainties related to or resulting from these events 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 these risks and uncertainties.

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.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Internal Revenue Service issued final regulations with respect to the timing and payment of the Excise Tax. Pursuant to those regulations, the Company would need to file a return and remit payment for any liability incurred during the period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 on or before October 31, 2024. If the Company is unable to pay its obligation in full, it will be subject to additional interest and penalties which are currently estimated at 10% interest per annum and a 5% underpayment penalty per month or portion of a month up to 25% of the total liability for any amount that is unpaid from November 1, 2024 until paid in full. As a result of the redemptions by the public stockholders in August 2023, January 2024 and December 2024, the Company recorded $205,388 total excise tax liability. In February 2025, the Company filed an excise tax return for the redemptions in August 2023 and January 2024 and paid a total of $113,468 in excise taxes. In July 2025, the Company filed an excise tax return for the redemption in December 2024 and paid $79,193 in excise taxes. As of March 31, 2026, $12,727, which represents estimated interest and penalties. remained outstanding.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("**U.S. GAAP**") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included.

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 independent registered public accounting firm 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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 statements and the reported amounts of 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 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 of $0 and $241,548 and none in cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of March 31, 2026, the assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a) (16) of the Investment Company Act, with maturities of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company's investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company's investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in the fair value of these securities are reported in the statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information. The Company had $3,450,760 and $3,380,327 in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Warrant Liability

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 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 stock, 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.

For issued or modified 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 or modified 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. In accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815, the Public Warrants qualify for equity treatment. The Private Warrants do not qualify as equity and are recorded as a liability at fair value. Changes in the estimated fair value of the Private Warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants (as defined in Note 4) was estimated using a Black-Scholes method (see Note 9).

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

All of the remaining Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company's liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff's guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all redeemable Public Shares have been classified outside of permanent equity.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

As of March 31, 2026, the redeemable common stock reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $15,242,385 as a result of the Initial Public Offering (consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $2,592,385 of other offering costs). The Company recorded $13,850,689 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity in connection with the Public Shares. The Company recorded $1,386,770 as a reduction of permanent equity in connection with the Public Warrants, Public Rights, Private Shares and Private Rights. The Company immediately expensed $4,926 of offering costs in connection with Private Warrants that were classified as liabilities.

Share-Based Payment Arrangements

The Company accounts for stock awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation ("**ASC 718**"), which requires that all equity awards be accounted for at their fair value. Fair value is measured on the grant date and is equal to the underlying value of the stock.

Costs equal to these fair values are recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the number of awards that are expected to vest, or in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately and have no future service condition. For awards that vest over time, cumulative adjustments in later periods are recorded to the extent actual forfeitures differ from the Company's initial estimates; previously recognized compensation cost is reversed if the service or performance conditions are not satisfied, and the award is forfeited.

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 statements 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.

While ASC 740 identifies usage of an effective annual tax rate for purposes of an interim provision, it does allow for estimating individual elements in the current period if they are significant, unusual or infrequent. Computing the effective tax rate for the Company is complicated due to the potential impact of the timing of any Business Combination expenses and the actual interest income that will be recognized during the year. The Company has taken a position as to the calculation of income tax expense in a current period based on ASC 740-270-25-3 which states, "If an entity is unable to estimate a part of its ordinary income (or loss) or the related tax (benefit) but is otherwise able to make a reasonable estimate, the tax (or benefit) applicable to the item that cannot be estimated shall be reported in the interim period in which the item is reported." The Company believes its calculation to be a reliable estimate and allows it to properly take into account the usual elements that can impact its annualized book income and its impact on the effective tax rate. As such, the Company is computing its taxable income (loss) and associated income tax provision based on actual results through March 31, 2026.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company accrued $0 and $16,456 for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. There were no unrecognized tax benefits for both fiscal periods. 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 has identified the United States as its 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.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. As the Public Shares are considered to be redeemable at fair value, and a redemption at fair value does not amount to a distribution different than other stockholders, redeemable and non-redeemable common stock are presented as one class of stock in calculating net loss per share. Warrants and rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and private placement have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. As these warrants are not exercisable until the consummation of a Business Combination, the diluted net income or loss per share remains identical to the basic net income or loss per share.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common stock (in dollars, except per share amounts)

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 and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements ("**ASC 820**"), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company's principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity's own assumptions based on market data and the entity's judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities are of approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

Level 1 — Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

See Note 9 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Recent Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker ("**CODM**"), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and 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, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of March 31, 2025.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure" ("**ASU 2023-09**"). ASU 2023-09 mostly requires, on an annual basis, disclosure of specific categories in an entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The incremental disclosures may be presented on a prospective or retrospective basis. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2023-09 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows

The Company's management does not believe that any 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

The registration statement filed in connection with the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 28, 2021. On August 2, 2021, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, one right ("**Public Right**") and one redeemable warrant ("**Public Warrant**"). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-twentieth of one share of common stock at the closing of a Business Combination (see Note 8). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase three-fourths of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).

On August 6, 2021, in connection with the underwriters' exercise in full of their option to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000.

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Prior Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 714,400 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit ($7,144,000 in the aggregate). Each Private Unit consists of one share of common stock ("**Private Share**"), one right ("**Private Right**") and one warrant ("**Private Warrant**"). Each Private Right entitles the holder to receive one-twentieth of one share of common stock at the closing of a Business Combination (see Note 8). Each Private Warrant entitles the holder to purchase three-fourths of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).

The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds of 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 be worthless. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Private Rights and Private Warrants.

Simultaneously with the closing of the exercise of the over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 82,500 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to the Prior Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $825,000.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On February 9, 2021, the Prior Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 to cover certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for the issuance of 5,750,000 share of common stock (the "**Founder Shares**"). The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares of common stock subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Prior Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (not including the Private Units and underlying securities and assuming the Prior Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering). On August 6, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, thus these shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Prior Sponsor and the other holders of the Founder Shares (the "**initial stockholders**") have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the earlier of six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination and the date on which the closing price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of an initial Business Combination and, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination, or earlier in each case if, subsequent to an initial Business Combination, the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company's stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

On July 7, 2021, the Prior Sponsor entered into agreements with two independent directors of the Company to transfer 95,000 Founder Shares to each director, subject to and upon closing of the Company's initial business combination. As such, under ASC 718, these shares are transferred subject to a performance condition and compensation expense will be recognized at the date of a business combination when earned.

On July 22, 2021, the Prior Sponsor sold 30,000 of its Founder Shares to each of its five independent directors (the "**Initial Independent Directors**") (or 150,000 Founder Shares in total) for cash consideration of approximately $0.004 per. These awards are subject to ASC 718. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recognized compensation expense in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares sold times the grant date fair value per share less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares. The value of the Founder Shares sold to the Initial Independent Directors was determined to be $787,500 as of July 22, 2021. As such, the Company recognized compensation expense of $786,848 within stock-based compensation expense in the Company's Statements of Operations for the period from January 15, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021.

On September 17, 2021, the Prior Sponsor sold 25,000 of its Founder Shares to an additional independent director (the "**Additional Independent Director**") for consideration of approximately $0.004 per. These awards are subject to ASC 718. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recognized compensation expense in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares sold times the grant date fair value per share less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares. The value of the Founder Shares sold to the Additional Independent Director was determined to be $141,250 as of September 17, 2021. As such, the Company recognized compensation expense of $141,150 within stock-based compensation expense in the Company's Statements of Operations for the period from January 15, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021.

On September 17, 2021, the Prior Sponsor sold 75,000 of its Founder Shares to an independent consultant (the "**Consultant**") for consideration of approximately $0.004 per. These awards are subject to ASC 718. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recognized compensation expense in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares sold times the grant date fair value per share less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares. The value of the Founder Shares sold to the Consultant was determined to be $423,750 as of September 17, 2021. As such, the Company recognized compensation expense of $423,450 within stock-based compensation expense in the Company's Statements of Operations for the period from January 15, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021.

On November 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Buyer, the Prior Sponsor, and the Seller, pursuant to which the Prior Sponsor agreed to sell, and the Buyer agreed to purchase, 4,125,000 Founder Shares and 657,675 private placement units of the Company, which represents 76% of the total Company Securities (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) owned by the Prior Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $1.00.

If the Buyer elects to convert the JC Unify Prior Notes into JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities, the JC Unify Prior Notes shall be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Amendments to the JC Unify Prior Notes also amended the events of default, so that the failure of the Company to issue JC Unify Prior Notes Conversion Securities constitutes a failure to make required payments, constituting an event of default.

On March 28, 2025, the Company issued Promissory Note D in the aggregate principal amount of up to $600,000 to the Buyer. Pursuant to Promissory Note D, the Buyer agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $600,000.

The Promissory Note D is convertible into the Promissory Note D Conversion Securities, with no fractional Promissory Note D Conversion Securities to be issued upon conversion, and has the right to be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Promissory Note D does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note D will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

As additional consideration for the Lender making the Initial Loan available to the Prior Sponsor, the Company shall issue 500,000 shares of Common Stock to the Lender (the "**Initial Securities**"), and as additional consideration for the lender making each Monthly Loan available to the Prior Sponsor, the Company shall issue 166,700 shares of Common Stock to Lender for each Monthly Loan. Such securities shall be subject to no transfer restrictions or any other lock-up provisions, earn outs or other contingencies, and shall promptly be registered pursuant to the first registration statement filed by the Company or the surviving entity following the de-SPAC Closing in connection with the de-SPAC Closing, or if no such registration statement is filed in connection with the de-SPAC Closing, the first registration statement filed subsequent to the de-SPAC Closing, which will be filed no later than 45 days after the de-SPAC Closing and declared effective no later than 90 days after the de-SPAC Closing.

Administrative Support Agreement

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, no amount was outstanding.

Related Party – Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders or an affiliate of the initial stockholders or certain of the Company's directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required ("**Working Capital Loans**"). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such 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 Private Units.

NOTE 7. WARRANTS

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were 23,000,000 Public Warrants and 796,900 Private Warrants outstanding.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the completion of a Business Combination or (b) one year from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within 90 days from 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 the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption from registration the Securities Act.

No Public Warrants will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such warrant, a prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the shares of common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. However, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to do so and, if the Company does not maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their warrants and the Company will not be required to settle any such warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is not current or if the shares of common stock are not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside, the Company will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the warrant exercise, the warrants may have no value, the market for the warrants may be limited and the warrants may expire worthless.

The Company may call the Public Warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

● at any time while the warrants are 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 shares of common stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period 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 shares of common stock underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption as described above, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a "cashless basis." In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the fair market value by (y) the fair market value. The fair market value shall mean the volume weighted average trading price of our common stock for the 20 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. Whether the Company will exercise its option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a "cashless basis" will depend on a variety of factors, including the price of the Company's shares of common stock at the time the warrants are called for redemption, the Company's cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.50 per share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors), (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, and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company's shares of common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates an initial Business Combination (such price, the "**Market Price**") is below $9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the Market Price, and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165% of the Market Price.

The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except the Private Units and their component securities will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, Private Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Prior Sponsor or its permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by holders other than the Prior Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The Company accounts for the 23,796,900 warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option (including 23,000,000 Public Warrants and 796,900 Private Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The Public Warrants qualify for equity treatment under ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the Private Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each Private Warrant must be recorded as a liability at fair value.

The accounting treatment for derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the Private Warrants as derivative liabilities at fair value upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and subsequently at the end of each reporting period. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to its current fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company's statement of operations. The Company will reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.

NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT

**Preferred stock**— The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock 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 March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

**Common stock**— The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were 6,546,900 shares of common stock issued and outstanding (excluding 289,694 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption).

**Rights**— Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Public Right or a Private Right will automatically receive one-twentieth (1/20) of one share of common stock upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of a Public Right or a Private Right converted all shares held by him, her or it in connection with a Business Combination or an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with respect to its pre-Business Combination activities. In the event that the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of a Business Combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-twentieth (1/20) of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the 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 Delaware law. As a result, the holders of the rights must hold rights in multiples of 20 in order to receive shares for all of the holders' rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company redeems 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. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were 23,000,000 Public Rights and 796,900 Private Rights outstanding.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes method to value the Private Warrants at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations. The estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a binomial options pricing model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock using the implied volatility of the comparable companies that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the Private Warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

The following table provides the significant inputs to the Black-Scholes method for the fair value of the Private Warrants:

| Income tax provision | $17322 | 122756 |

In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. The change in the valuation allowance was $(83,045) and $(206,552) for the year ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

A reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate at March 31, 2026 and 2025 is as follows：

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the year<br> ended<br> March 31,<br> 2026** | **For the year<br> ended<br> March 31,<br> 2025** |
| Statutory federal income tax rate | 21.00% | 21.00% |
| State taxes, net of federal benefit | 7.11% | 7.11% |
| Change in fair value of warrant liability | 0.61% | 1.26% |
| Merger costs | (4.29)% |  |
| Change in valuation allowance | (25.36)% | (72.38)% |
| Penalty and interest | (4.36)% | - |
| Income Taxes Provision (Benefit) | (5.29)% | (43.02)% |

---

The effective tax rate differs from the federal and state statutory rate of 21% and 9% for the year ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, due to the valuation allowance recorded on the Company's net operating losses, as well as the change in the fair value of warrant liability, change in valuation allowance, penalty and interest, and state income taxes net of federal benefit.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and New Jersey. The Company's tax returns for the year ended March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2022, remain open and subject to examination. The Company has filed tax returns for the calendar years 2024, 2023 and 2022.

NOTE 11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

ASC Topic 280, "Segment Reporting," establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company's chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman ("**CODM**"), who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment. When evaluating the Company's performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews key metrics, which include the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Year Ended<br> March 31,** | **For the Year Ended<br> March 31,** |
|  | **2026** | **2025** |
| General and administrative expenses | $331161 | $734798 |
| Interest earned on investments held in Trust Account | $126434 | $502745 |

---

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are general and administrative expenses and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative expenses to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Interest earned on investments held in Trust Account are reviewed to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement.

**NOTE 12. ISSUANCE OF UNSECURED PROMISSORY NOTE E**

On April 20, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $3,000,000 (the "**Promissory Note E**") to Wei-Hua Chang (the "**Promissory Note E Lender**"). Pursuant to Promissory Note E, the Promissory Note E Lender agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate amount of up to $3,000,000. The Promissory Note E shall be payable promptly on demand and in any event, no later than the date on which the Company terminates or consummates an initial business combination. The Promissory Note E is convertible into units consisting of one share of Common Stock of the Company and one right to receive one-twentieth of one share of Common Stock of the Company (together, the "**Promissory Note E Conversion Securities**"), with no fractional Promissory Note E Conversion Securities to be issued upon conversion, and has the right to be converted immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Promissory Note E does not bear interest. The proceeds of Promissory Note E will be used by the Company to pay various expenses of the Company, including any payment to extend the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, and for working capital purposes.

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, $674,672 and $0 were outstanding under Promissory Note E, respectively.

## Exhibit 4.1

**Exhibit 4.1**

DESCRIPTION OF REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES REGISTERED PURSUANT TO<br> SECTION 12 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

As of March 31, 2026, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, International Media Acquisition Corp. (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") had four classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"): the Company's units, common stock, warrants and rights.

The following description of the Company's capital stock and provisions of the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law are summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the text of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Copies of these documents have been filed with the SEC as exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K to which this description has been filed as an exhibit.

**General**

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 and 5,000,000 shares shall be preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, 6,836,594 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock are issued or outstanding. The following description summarizes all of the material terms of our 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 our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Units**

Each unit had an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one share of common stock, one right and one redeemable warrant. Each right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of a share of common stock upon consummation of our initial business combination. We will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights. As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of 20 in order to receive shares for all of your rights upon closing of a business combination. Each redeemable warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase three-fourths (3/4) of one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment, and shall expire five years after the completion of an initial business combination, or earlier upon redemption. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares. This means that only warrants in multiples of four may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. For example, if a warrant holder holds one warrant to purchase three-fourths (3/4) of one share, such warrant shall not be exercisable. If a warrant holder holds four warrants, such warrants will be exercisable for one share. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware law.

The common stock, rights and warrants comprising the units began separate trading on August 17, 2021. Holders have the option to continue to hold units or separate their units into the component pieces. On August 8, 2024, trading in the Company's securities was suspended on Nasdaq. The securities are now quoted on Over-the-Counter (OTC) markets under the same symbols.

**Private Units**

The private units are identical to the units sold in our IPO except that (a) the private units and their component securities will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the consummation of our initial business combination except to permitted transferees, and (b) the private warrants, so long as they are held by our Prior Sponsor or its permitted transferees, (i) will not be redeemable by us, (ii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis, and (iii) are entitled to registration rights.

**Common Stock**

Our holders of record of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. In connection with any vote held to approve our initial business combination, our insiders, officers and directors, have agreed to vote their respective shares of common stock owned by them immediately prior to our IPO, including both the insider shares and the private shares, and any shares acquired in our IPO or following our IPO in the open market, in favor of the proposed business combination.

We will consummate our initial business combination only if, assuming a quorum is present at the meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting are voted in favor of the business combination.

Our board of directors 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 eligible to vote for the election of directors can elect all of the directors.

Pursuant to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation which has been further amended, if we do not consummate our initial business combination by January 2, 2027, 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 100% of the outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation 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 (ii) and (iii) above) to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Our insiders have agreed to waive their rights to share in any distribution with respect to their insider shares and private shares.

Our stockholders have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to the shares of common stock, except that public stockholders have the right to sell their shares to us in any tender offer or have their shares of common stock converted to cash equal to their pro rata share of the trust account if they vote on the proposed business combination and the business combination is completed. If we hold a stockholder vote to amend any provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation relating to stockholder's rights or pre-business combination activity (including the substance or timing within which we have to complete a business combination), we will provide our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of common stock 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 funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, in connection with any such vote. In either of such events, converting stockholders would be paid their pro rata portion of the trust account promptly following consummation of the business combination or the approval of the amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation. If the business combination is not consummated or the amendment is not approved, stockholders will not be paid such amounts.

**Preferred Stock**

There are no shares of preferred stock outstanding. No shares of preferred stock are being issued or registered in our IPO. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. However, the underwriting agreement prohibits us, prior to a business combination, from issuing preferred stock which participates in any manner in the proceeds of the trust account, or which votes as a class with the common stock on our initial business combination. We may issue some or all of the preferred stock to effect our initial business combination. In addition, the preferred stock could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of us. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we reserve the right to do so in the future.

**Rights included as part of Units**

Except in cases where we are not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-twentieth (1/20) of a share of common stock upon consummation of our initial business combination, even if the holder of a public right converted all shares of common stock held by him, her or it in connection with the initial business combination or an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation with respect to our pre-business combination activities. In the event we will not be the surviving company upon completion of our 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-twentieth (1/20) of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the 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 shares of common stock upon consummation of an initial business combination. The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of ours). If we enter into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which we will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the common stock will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into common stock basis.

The rights are issued in registered form under a rights agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as rights agent, and us. The rights agreement provides that the terms of the rights may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding rights in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders.

We 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 Delaware law. As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of 20 in order to receive shares for all of your rights upon closing of a business combination. If we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period and we liquidate the funds held in the trust account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to 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. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of an initial business combination. Additionally, in no event will we be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

**Warrants**

Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase three-fourths of a share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of the completion of an initial business combination and 12 months from the date of the prospectus for our IPO. However, except as set forth below, no warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of our 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 from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act provided that such exemption is available. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of an initial business combination at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.50 per share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by our board of directors), (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 our initial business combination, and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of our shares of common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which we consummate our initial business combination (such price, the "Market Price") is below $9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the Market Price, and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165% of the Market Price.

The private warrants are identical to the public warrants underlying the units sold in our IPO except that such private warrants will be exercisable for cash (even if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective) or on a cashless basis, at the holder's option, and will not be redeemable by us, in each case so long as they are still held by our Prior Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

We may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the private warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

● at any time while the warrants are 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 shares of common stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders (the "Force-Call Provision"), and

● if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder's warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

The redemption criteria for our warrants have been established at a price that is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants.

If we call the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a "cashless basis." In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of 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" means the volume weighted average trading price of our common stock for the 20 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. Whether we will exercise our option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a "cashless basis" will depend on a variety of factors, including the price of our shares of common stock at the time the warrants are called for redemption, our cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.

The warrants are issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. 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 defective provision, but requires the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding warrants in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders.

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share capitalizations, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below their respective exercise prices.

The 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, 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 shares of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

Except as described above, no warrants will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such warrant, a prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the shares of common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed to use our best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so and, if we do not maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their warrants and we will not be required to settle any such warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is not current or if the shares of common stock is not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside, we will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the warrant exercise, the warrants may have no value, the market for the warrants may be limited and the warrants may expire worthless.

Warrant holders may elect to be subject to a restriction on the exercise of their warrants such that an electing warrant holder (and his, her or its affiliates) would not be able to exercise their warrants to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, such holder (and his, her or its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any person who acquires a warrant with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing the control of our company, or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect, immediately upon such acquisition will be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the underlying shares of common stock and not be able to take advantage of this provision.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share (as a result of a subsequent share capitalizations payable in shares of common stock, or by a split up of the shares of common stock or other similar event), we will, upon exercise, round up or down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrant holder.

**Contractual Arrangements with respect Certain Warrants**

We have agreed that so long as the private warrants are still held by the Prior Sponsor or its permitted transferees, we will not redeem such warrants and we will allow the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis (even if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective). However, once any of the foregoing warrants are transferred from the Prior Sponsor or their affiliates, these arrangements will no longer apply. Furthermore, because the private warrants were issued in a private transaction, the holders and their transferees will be allowed to exercise the private warrants for cash even if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective and receive unregistered shares of common stock.

**Dividends**

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do 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 our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to a business combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring any stock dividends in the foreseeable future, except if we increase the size of the offering pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act, in which case we will effect a stock dividend immediately prior to the consummation of the offering in such amount as to maintain the number of insider shares at 20.0% of our issued and outstanding shares of our common stock upon the consummation of our IPO. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

**Our Transfer Agent, Rights and Warrant Agent**

The transfer agent for our common stock, rights agent for our rights and warrant agent for our warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004.

**Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws**

We are 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 10% or more of our 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 our assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

● our board of directors 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 our 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 our board of directors and authorized at a meeting of our 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.

**Staggered board of directors**

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that our board of directors are classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

**Special meeting of stockholders**

Our bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by resolution of the board of directors, or by the Chairman or the Chief Executive Officer.

**Advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and director nominations**

Our bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder's notice will need to be delivered to our 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 scheduled date of the annual meeting of stockholders. Our bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders' meeting. These provisions may preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders.
