6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Risks and Uncertainties

The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas conflict. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.

Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict and subsequent sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.

Registration Rights

The holders of Founder Shares, Private Units (and their underlying securities) and Units that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and their underlying securities), if any, and any ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares and any ordinary shares held by the initial shareholders at the completion of the Initial Public Offering or acquired prior to or in connection with the initial Business Combination, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the registration statement for the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, and have piggyback registration rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, BTIG may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, BTIG may participate in a piggyback registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriters’ Agreement

The underwriters had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On January 12, 2026, the underwriters elected to fully exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,750,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit.

The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $5,750,000 in the aggregate, paid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Additionally, the underwriters were entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of $0.35 per Unit, or $10,062,500 in the aggregate, payable to the representative on behalf of the underwriters only upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The deferred underwriting commissions will be payable as follows: (i) $0.10 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering will be paid to BTIG in cash upon the closing of the initial Business Combination, (ii) $0.125 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering will be paid to BTIG in cash, based on the percentage of Public Shares outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, net of Public Shares submitted for redemption and net of any Public Shares held by public shareholders that have entered into forward purchase agreements or other arrangements whereby the Company has a contractual obligation to repurchase such shares after the closing of the initial Business Combination and (iii) $0.125 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering will be payable to BTIG in cash (the “Allocable Amount”), provided that the Company and the Sponsor have the right, in their discretion, to reallocate any portion of the Allocable Amount to third parties not participating in the Initial Public Offering (but who are members of FINRA) that assist the Company in consummating the initial Business Combination.
