LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS OF AIMFINITY INVESTMENT CORP. I

211 W 9th St, PMB 235
Wilmington, DE 19801

Dear Aimfinity Investment Corp. I Shareholder:

You are cordially invited to attend an extraordinary general meeting of Aimfinity Investment Corp. I, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“AIMA,” or the “Company”), which will be held on July 27, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at 3F., No. 25, Gongyuan Rd., Pingtung City, Pingtung County, Taiwan (R.O.C.), and virtually via teleconference, for which you must register in advance at: https://robinsoncole.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYqcemvrzgrGd0L0dFtye-RxOyH8b-HSjhY, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned (the “Shareholder Meeting”).

The attached Notice of the Shareholder Meeting and proxy statement describe the business AIMA will conduct at the Shareholder Meeting and provide information about AIMA that you should consider when you vote your shares. As more fully described in the attached proxy statement, which is dated July 10, 2023 and is first being mailed to shareholders on or about that date, the Shareholder Meeting will be held for the purpose of considering and voting on the following proposals:

1. Proposal No. 1 — Charter Amendment Proposal — To approve by way of a special resolution that, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Charter”), which currently provides that the Company has 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) if such date is extended as described in the prospectus of the Company filed with the SEC on April 26, 2022 (the “IPO Prospectus”), or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the Charter, to complete a business combination, be deleted in their entirety and the substitution in their place of the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company in the form attached as Annex A hereto (such amendment to the Charter as set forth in Annex A is herein referred to as the “Charter Amendment”, and such proposal, the “Charter Amendment Proposal”), which provides that the Company has until July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, and may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024; and

2. Proposal No. 2 — Adjournment Proposal — To approve by way of an ordinary resolution to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates or sine die, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are not sufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

If the shareholders approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate an initial business combination, and, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, at the request by our sponsor, Aimfinity Investment LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Company may by resolution of our board of directors elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension (each a “Monthly Extension”), for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024 (the “Extended Termination Date”). For each Monthly Extension, our sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) the lesser of (i) $85,000 for all remaining public shares, and (ii) an amount equal to $0.04 for each remaining public share at the time of such deposit (each, a “Monthly Extension Fee”). If there is (i) no redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, (ii) a 50% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, and (iii) an 80% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be approximately $68,336. The first Monthly Extension Fee after the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal must be made by July 28, 2023, while the subsequent Monthly Extension Fee must be deposited into the Trust Account by the 28th of each succeeding month until March 28, 2024.

Table of Contents

In addition, the units offered in our initial public offering are currently traded on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMAU”, each consisting of one new unit (currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMBU”) (the “New Units”) and one Class 1 redeemable warrant (currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMAW”) (the “Class 1 Warrants”). Each new unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares” or “public shares”), and one-half of one Class 2 redeemable warrant (the “Class 2 Warrants”). However, the New Units will not separate into public shares and Class 2 Warrants, and the public shares and the Class 2 Warrants will not trade separately, unless and until consummation of our initial business combination. As provided in the Company’s IPO Prospectus and the warrant agreement of April 25, 2022 between the Company and VStock Transfer, LLC, as amended on July 7, 2023 (collectively, the “Warrant Agreement”), the holders of New Units will forfeit their Class 2 Warrants in the event that they elect to redeem public shares. As a result, if you elect to redeem public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal, you may submit your New Units (Symbol “AIMBU”, CUSIP Number: G0135E 142) for redemption of such public shares, as a result of which, your public shares underlying the redeeming New Units will be redeemed and the Class 2 Warrants underlying the redeeming New Units will be automatically forfeited and cancelled without any additional actions by you.

Neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. Each of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement. Please take the time to read carefully each of the proposals in the accompanying proxy statement before you vote.

The purpose of the Charter Amendment Proposal is to allow the Company to have more time and flexibility to complete its initial business combination. The Company’s Charter currently provides that the Company has 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) if such date is extended as described in the IPO Prospectus, or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the Charter, to complete a business combination. In the event that the Company does not consummate its initial business combination before July 28, 2023 or January 28, 2024 (subject in the latter case to valid extensions having been made in accordance with the Company’s Charter), the Company shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) business days thereafter, 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 the Company (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our directors, liquidate and dissolve the Company, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under the Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. Further, the Company’s IPO Prospectus and the Charter provide that the Company may amend the timeline that the Company must complete its business combination (the “Prescribed Timeline”) by special resolution provided that the holders of the public shares are provided with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon the approval or effectiveness 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. Given the costs of the Company to extend up to January 28, 2024 and the time that the Company may need to complete its initial business combination, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, to extend the Prescribed Timeline in order to allow the Company to have more time and flexibility to complete a business combination. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate its initial business combination, provided that, the Company may, by resolution of the board of directors of the Company if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the period of time to consummate its initial business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (for a total up to nine months to April 28, 2024), subject to the Sponsor and/or its designees depositing additional funds into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the Charter Amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved or implemented, (ii) the Sponsor and the Board decide not to seek further extension pursuant to the current Charter, and (iii) a business combination is not completed on or before July 28, 2023, AIMA 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,

Table of Contents

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 the Company (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (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 the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

For further details about the reasons for the Charter Amendment Proposal, see the section titled “Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — Reasons for the Charter Amendment Proposal” of this proxy statement.

AIMA reserves the right to move to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting in the event that the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal. In that event, at the Shareholder Meeting, AIMA will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the Adjournment Proposal and not on the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Board has fixed the close of business on June 28, 2023 (the “Record Date”) as the record date for determining AIMA’s shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and vote at, the Shareholder Meeting and any adjournment thereof. Only holders of record on the Record Date are entitled to have their votes counted at the Shareholder Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

You are not being asked to vote on any proposed business combination at this time. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and you do not elect to have your public shares redeemed now, you will retain the right to vote on any proposed business combination when and if one is submitted to shareholders and the right to redeem your public shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account in the event a proposed business combination is approved and completed or the Company has not consummated a business combination by the Extended Termination Date.

As described above, pursuant to the Charter, a public shareholder may elect to redeem all or a portion of its public shares for cash (the “Election”) if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented (the “Amendment Redemption”). Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their public shares regardless of whether they vote for or against, or abstain from voting on the Charter Amendment Proposal. Public shareholders may make an Election regardless of whether such public shareholders were holders as of the Record Date. However, the Company will not proceed with the Charter Amendment if the redemption of public shares in connection therewith would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001. In the event that the redemption of public shares causes the net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 and the Charter Amendment is not proceeded, the Company will be required to liquidate and dissolve its Trust Account by returning the then remaining funds in such Trust Account to the public shareholders.

The Company believes that such redemption right protects the Company’s public shareholders from having to sustain their investments for an unreasonably long period if we fail to find a suitable acquisition within the Prescribed Timeline. In addition, regardless of whether public shareholders vote “FOR” or “AGAINST,” or abstain from voting on, the Charter Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved by the requisite vote of shareholders (and not abandoned), the remaining holders of public shares will retain their right to redeem their public shares for their pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account upon consummation of an initial business combination when it is submitted to the shareholders, subject to any limitations set forth in the Charter and the limitations contained in related agreements. Each redemption of shares by our public shareholders in connection with the Charter Amendment will decrease the amount in our Trust Account.

PURSUANT TO THE IPO PROSPECTUS AND WARRANT AGREEMENT, PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS WHO WISH TO REDEEM YOUR PUBLIC SHARES IN CONNECTION WITH THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL SHALL SUBMIT THEIR NEW UNITS (SYMBOL “AIMBU”, CUSIP G0135E 142) FOR REDEMPTIONS. PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS WHO HOLD UNITS OF THE COMPANY (SYMBOL “AIMAU”, CUSIP G0135E 100) NEED TO SEPARATE THEIR UNITS INTO NEW UNITS AND CLASS 1 WARRANTS (SYMBOL “AIMAW”, CUSIP G0135E 126) BEFORE SUBMITING YOUR REDEMPTION REQUESTS. PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS WHO WISH TO REDEEM YOUR PUBLIC SHARES IN CONNECTION WITH THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL, DO NOT NEED TO SEPARATE YOUR NEW UNITS, AND

Table of Contents

MAY SUBMIT NEW UNITS FOR REDEMPTION OF SUCH PUBLIC SHARES. THE PUBLIC SHARES UNDERLYING THE NEW UNITS WILL BE REDEEMED FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT AND THE CLASS 2 WARRANTS UNDERLYING THE NEW UNITS WILL BE FORFEITED AND CANCELLED.

PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO VOTE OR AFFIRMATIVELY VOTE EITHER FOR OR AGAINST THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL IN ORDER TO REDEEM THEIR SHARES FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT. THIS MEANS THAT PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS WHO HOLD PUBLIC SHARES UNDERLYING THE NEW UNITS ON OR BEFORE THE SCHEDULED VOTE AT THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING MAY ELECT TO REDEEM THEIR SHARES WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE HOLDERS OF THE RECORD DATE, AND WHETHER THEY VOTE FOR OR AGAINST, OR ABSTAIN FROM VOTING ON, THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL. YOU MAY TENDER YOUR NEW UNITS BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR CERTIFICATES TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR NEW UNITS ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK OR BROKER TO WITHDRAW THE NEW UNITS FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

We estimate, based on the value of Trust Account as of the Record Date, that the per-share price at which public shares may be redeemed from cash held in the Trust Account will be approximately $10.49 per share, subject to the actual value of the Trust Account at the time of the redemption, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA to pay its taxes, divided by the total number of then outstanding public shares. There is a public market for the trading of the New Units, each of which consists of one public share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant. There is no separate trading for public shares, and the public shareholders who wish to redeem their public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal may submit their new units for redemption of such public shares. As a result, the public shares underlying the new units will be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account and the Class 2 Warrants will be forfeited. The closing price of the New Units as of the Record Date was $10.47. Accordingly, if the market price of the New Units were to remain the same until the date of the Shareholder Meeting, exercising redemption rights would result in a public shareholder receiving approximately $0.02 more per share than if the New Units were sold in the open market (based on the estimated per share redemption price as of the Record Date). However, you will lose the Class 2 Warrants attached to the redeemed public shares. AIMA cannot assure shareholders that they will be able to sell their New Units in the open market, even if the market price per unit is lower than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its shares when such shareholders wish to sell their shares.

In consideration of the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Company’s shareholders should be aware that if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved (and not abandoned), the Company will incur additional expenses in seeking to complete an initial business combination, in addition to the payment of extension fees.

The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company, (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”, collectively with Class A Ordinary Shares, “Ordinary Shares”), voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. The Adjournment Proposal will only be put forth for a vote if either there are not sufficient votes to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting or the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal.

After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board believes that the Charter Amendment Proposal will allow the Company to have more time and flexibility to complete the initial business combination and are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, please vote as soon as possible by following the instructions in the accompanying proxy statement to make sure that your shares are represented and voted at the Shareholder Meeting. Submitting a proxy now will NOT prevent you from being able to attend and vote during the Shareholder Meeting. The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that the shares you beneficially own are represented and voted at the Shareholder Meeting. In this regard, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares. If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted FOR each of the proposals presented at the Shareholder Meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card and do not vote in person or by proxy at the Shareholder Meeting, your shares will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Shareholder Meeting or whether the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) is approved by the requisite votes.

TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS IN RESPECT TO THE AMENDMENT REDEMPTION, YOU MUST DEMAND IN WRITING THAT YOUR CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES BE REDEEMED FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT AND TENDER YOUR NEW UNITS TO AIMA’S TRANSFER AGENT PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED VOTE AT THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING. YOU MAY TENDER YOUR NEW UNITS BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR CERTIFICATE (IF ANY) AND OTHER REDEMPTION FORMS TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR NEW UNITS ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK, BROKER OR OTHER NOMINEE TO WITHDRAW THE SHARES FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE SUCH REDEMPTION RIGHTS. IF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL IS NOT APPROVED OR IMPLEMENTED, THEN THE PUBLIC SHARES UNDERLYING THE NEW UNITS SHALL NOT BE REDEEMED AND THE NEW UNITS SHALL BE RETURNED TO YOU OR YOUR ACCOUNT.

Enclosed is the Notice of Shareholder Meeting and accompanying proxy statement containing detailed information about the Shareholder Meeting, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, AIMA urges you to read this material carefully and vote your shares.

OF AIMFINITY INVESTMENT CORP. I

TO BE HELD ON JULY 27, 2023

To the Shareholders of Aimfinity Investment Corp. I:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of Aimfinity Investment Corp. I, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“AIMA,” or the “Company”), will be held on July 27, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at 3F., No. 25, Gongyuan Rd., Pingtung City, Pingtung County, Taiwan (R.O.C.), and virtually via teleconference, for which you must register in advance at: https://robinsoncole.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYqcemvrzgrGd0L0dFtye-RxOyH8b-HSjhY, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned (the “Shareholder Meeting”).

You are cordially invited to attend the Shareholder Meeting that will be held for the purpose of considering and voting on the following proposals:

1. Proposal No. 1 — Charter Amendment Proposal — To approve by way of a special resolution that, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Charter”), which currently provides that the Company has 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) if such date is extended as described in the prospectus of the Company filed with the SEC on April 26, 2022 (the “IPO Prospectus”), or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the Charter, to consummate a business, be deleted in their entirety and the substitution in their place of the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company in the form attached as Annex A hereto (such amendment to the Charter as set forth in Annex A is herein referred to as the “Charter Amendment”, and such proposal, the “Charter Amendment Proposal”), which provides that the Company has until July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, and may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024; and

If the shareholders approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate an initial business combination, and, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, at the request by our sponsor, Aimfinity Investment LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Company may by resolution of our board of directors elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension (each a “Monthly Extension”), for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024 (the “Extended Termination Date”). For each Monthly Extension, our sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) the lesser of (i) $85,000 for all remaining public shares, and (ii) an amount equal to $0.04 for each remaining public share at the time of such deposit (each, a “Monthly Extension Fee”). If there is (i) no redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, (ii) a 50% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, and (iii) an 80% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be approximately $68,336. The first Monthly Extension Fee after the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal must be made by July 28, 2023, while the subsequent Monthly Extension Fee must be deposited into the Trust Account by 28th day of each succeeding month until March 28, 2024.

Table of Contents

Given the costs for extensions beyond July 28, 2023 and the time the Company may need to complete its initial business combination, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, pursuant to which, once approved, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate its initial business combination, and the Company may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the period of time to consummate its initial business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (until April 28, 2024), by the deposit of the lesser of (i) $85,000 for all remaining public shares and (ii) an amount equal to $0.04 for each public share at the time of such deposit, on or prior to the date of the deadline (each, a “Monthly Extension Fee”) by the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees into the Trust Account.

Table of Contents

as of the Record Date. However, the Company will not proceed with the Charter Amendment if the redemption of public shares in connection therewith would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001. In the event that the redemption of public shares causes the net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 and the Charter Amendment is not proceeded, the Company will be required to liquidate and dissolve its Trust Account by returning the then remaining funds in such Trust Account to the public shareholders.

PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO VOTE OR AFFIRMATIVELY VOTE EITHER FOR OR AGAINST THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL IN ORDER TO REDEEM THEIR SHARES FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT. THIS MEANS THAT PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS WHO HOLD PUBLIC SHARES UNDERLYING THE NEW UNITS ON OR BEFORE TWO THE SCHEDULED VOTE AT THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING MAY ELECT TO REDEEM THEIR SHARES WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE HOLDERS OF THE RECORD DATE, AND WHETHER THEY VOTE FOR OR AGAINST, OR ABSTAIN FROM VOTING ON, THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL. YOU MAY TENDER YOUR NEW UNITS BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR CERTIFICATES TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR NEW UNITS ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK OR BROKER TO WITHDRAW THE NEW UNITS FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

Table of Contents

The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal is a condition to its implementation. In addition, AIMA will not implement the Charter Amendment Proposal if AIMA will not have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets following approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, after taking into account the Amendment Redemption. AIMA cannot predict the amount that will remain in the Trust Account following the Amendment Redemption if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and the amount remaining in the Trust Account may be only a small fraction of the approximately $84.50 million that was in the Trust Account as of the Record Date, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA to pay its taxes.

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. The Adjournment Proposal will only be put forth for a vote if either (x) there are not sufficient votes to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting or (y) the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Record holders of Ordinary Shares at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote or have their votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 8,542,000 issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and 2,012,500 issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares. Voting on all resolutions at the Shareholder Meeting will be conducted by way of a poll rather than on a show of hands. On a poll, votes are counted according to the number of shares registered in each shareholder’s name which are voted, with each Ordinary Share carrying one vote.

Table of Contents

Enclosed is the proxy statement containing important information about the Shareholder Meeting, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, AIMA urges you to read this material carefully and vote your shares.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This proxy statement summarizes the information that you need to make an informed decision on the proposals to be considered at the Shareholder Meeting.

AIMA is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 26, 2021. AIMA was incorporated for the purpose of effecting merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Following the closing of the IPO and the partial exercise of the underwriters’, over-allotment option on April 28, 2022, and the respective concurrent sales of private units to our Sponsor (the “Private Units”), an aggregate amount of $82,110,000 of gross proceeds was placed in the Trust Account.

As of the date hereof, there were 8,542,000 remaining public shares issued and outstanding and there is approximately $84.50 million remaining in the Trust Account as of the Record Date. As of the Record Date, there were 8,542,000 issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and 2,012,500 issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares.

The Charter, the Trust Agreement, and the IPO Prospectus currently provide that the Company must complete its initial business combination within 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or (i) up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering if such date is extended subject to the Sponsor depositing $268,333, representing $0.033333 per remaining public share, up to an aggregate of $1,400,000, or $0.20 per share, on or prior to the date of the deadline. In the event that the Company does not consummate its initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to January 28, 2024, if extended, and such date, the “Original Termination Date”), the Company shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) business days thereafter, redeem the public shares to the holders of 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 the Company (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our directors, liquidate and dissolve the Company, subject in each case to the

Table of Contents

Company’s obligations under the Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. Further, the IPO Prospectus and the Charter provide that the Company may amend the Original Termination Date by special resolution provided that the holders of the public shares are provided with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon the approval or effectiveness 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares.

Given the costs for extensions beyond July 28, 2023 and the time the Company may need to complete its initial business combination, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, pursuant to which, once approved, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate its initial business combination, and the Company may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the period of time to consummate its initial business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (until April 28, 2024), by the deposit of the lesser of (i) $85,000 for all remaining public shares and (ii) an amount equal to $0.04 for each public share at the time of such deposit (each, a “Monthly Extension Fee”) by the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees into the Trust Account.

Q: When and where will the Shareholder Meeting be held?

A: The Shareholder Meeting will be held on July 27, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at 3F., No. 25, Gongyuan Rd., Pingtung City, Pingtung County, Taiwan (R.O.C.), and virtually via teleconference, for which you must register in advance at: https://robinsoncole.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYqcemvrzgrGd0L0dFtye-RxOyH8b-HSjhY, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned.

Shareholders may attend the Shareholder Meeting in person and you are also encouraged to attend the Shareholder Meeting virtually at your convenience.

Q: How do I vote?

A: If you were a holder of record of Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares on the close of business on June 28, 2023, the Record Date for the Shareholder Meeting, you may vote with respect to the proposals in person or virtually at the Shareholder Meeting, or by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card (in the form attached as Annex B) in the postage-paid envelope provided.

If you are a holder of record on the Record Date, you may vote in person at the Shareholder Meeting or by submitting a proxy for the Shareholder Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting in person, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card (in the form attached as Annex B) in the accompanying pre-addressed postage paid envelope. You may still attend the Shareholder Meeting and vote in person if you have already voted by proxy.

The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If your shares are held in “street name” by a broker or other agent, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Shareholder Meeting. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Shareholder Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

Q: What are the specific proposals on which I am being asked to vote at the Shareholder Meeting?

A: AIMA shareholders are being asked to consider and vote on the following proposals:

Table of Contents

the Charter, to consummate a business combination, be deleted in their entirety and the substitution in their place of the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company in the form attached as Annex A hereto (such amendment to the Charter as set forth in Annex A is herein referred to as the “Charter Amendment”, the “Charter Amendment Proposal”) which provides that the Company has until July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, and may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024; and

2. Proposal No. 2 — Adjournment Proposal — To approve by way of an ordinary resolution to the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates or sine die, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are not sufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. For more information, please see “Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal,” and “Proposal No. 2 — The Adjournment Proposal.”

After careful consideration, the Board has determined that the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of AIMA and its shareholders and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

The existence of financial and personal interests of our directors and officer may result in conflicts of interest, including a conflict between what may be in the best interests of AIMA and its shareholders and what may be best for a director’s personal interests when determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. See the sections titled “Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor and AIMA’s Officers and Directors” and “Beneficial Ownership of Securities” for a further discussion of these considerations.

THE VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS IS IMPORTANT. SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO SUBMIT THEIR PROXIES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER CAREFULLY REVIEWING THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

Q: Are the proposals conditioned on one another?

A: Neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. If, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, AIMA may move to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to such later date or dates to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies. AIMA also reserves the right to move to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting sine die in the event that the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal. In those events, at the Shareholder Meeting AIMA will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the Adjournment Proposal and not on the Charter Amendment Proposal. If the Charter Amendment Proposal are approved at the Shareholder Meeting, the Adjournment Proposal will not be presented.

Q: Why is AIMA proposing the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A: The purpose of the Charter Amendment Proposal is to allow the Company to have more time and flexibility to complete its initial business combination.

The Charter currently provides that AIMA has the Company has 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) if such date is extended as described in the IPO Prospectus, or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the Charter, to complete a business combination. As a result, the Company must complete its initial business combination by July 28, 2023, or up to January 28, 2024 (by depositing additional funds into the Trust Account), as applicable. If AIMA does not complete an initial business combination by July 28, 2023, unless further extended, 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, complete the redemption of all issued and outstanding 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 AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption and subject to the approval of AIMA’s remaining shareholders after such redemption and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to AIMA’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the other requirements of applicable law.

If (i) the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved or implemented, (ii) the Sponsor and the Board decide not to seek further extension pursuant to the currently effective Charter, and (iii) a business combination is not completed on or before the Prescribed Timeline, AIMA 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, complete the redemption of all issued and outstanding 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 AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption and subject to the approval of AIMA’s remaining shareholders after such redemption and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to AIMA’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

Q: What constitutes a quorum?

A: A quorum of our shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence (which would include presence at the virtual Shareholder Meeting), in person or by proxy, or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorized representative or proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares constitutes a quorum at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. The shares of the Sponsor, directors and officers of the Company, and certain former directors and officers of the Company (such certain former directors and officers of the Company are hereinafter referred as the “Initial Shareholders”, and together with the Sponsor, directors and officers of the Company, the “Insiders”), who own approximately 23.73% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares as of the Record Date, will count towards this quorum. Because all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters, banks, brokers and other nominees will not have authority to vote on any proposals unless instructed, so AIMA does not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting. If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the Shareholder Meeting to commence, the Shareholder Meeting will stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place or to such other day, time and/or place as the Board may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the shareholders present will constitute a quorum.

Q: What vote is required to approve the proposals presented at the Shareholder Meeting?

A: The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting.

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. The Adjournment Proposal will only be put forth for a vote if either (x) based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting there are not sufficient votes to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting or (y) if the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Q: How will the Insiders vote?

A: On the Record Date, the Insiders owned and were entitled to vote an aggregate of 2,504,500 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 23.73% of AIMA’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, and plan to vote in favor of the Charter Amendment Proposal, and, if presented, the Adjournment Proposal.

Q: Why should I vote “FOR” the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A: The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal is essential to the implementation of the Board’s plan to extend the deadline to complete a business combination. Our Board believes shareholders will benefit from the Company consummating a business combination and is proposing the Charter Amendment Proposal to allow us more time and flexibility to complete the initial business combination.

Table of Contents

Q: Why should I vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal?

A: If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by AIMA’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates in the event that there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Company may also move to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting sine die in the event that the Board determines before the Shareholder Meeting that it is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed with the Charter Amendment Proposal. In that event, the Company will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the Adjournment Proposal and not on the Charter Amendment Proposal.

If presented, the Board recommends that you vote in favor of the Adjournment Proposal.

Q: What if I do not want to vote “FOR” the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal?

A: If you do not want the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal to be approved, you may “ABSTAIN,” not vote, or vote “AGAINST” such proposal.

If you attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy, you may vote “AGAINST” the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal, and your Ordinary Shares will be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) is approved.

However, if you fail to return your proxy card, or if you fail to attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy or do attend the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy but “ABSTAIN” or otherwise fail to vote at the Shareholder Meeting, your Ordinary Shares will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) is approved and your Ordinary Shares which are not voted at the Shareholder Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of such votes.

If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Adjournment Proposal will not be presented for a vote.

Q: What happens if the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved?

A: If, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, AIMA may put the Adjournment Proposal to a vote in order to seek additional time to obtain sufficient votes in support of the Charter Amendment Proposal. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by AIMA’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates in the event that there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Company currently has until July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, or up to January 28, 2024 by depositing $268,333, representing $0.033333 per remaining public share, up to an aggregate of $1,400,000, or $0.20 per share, on or prior to the date of the deadline. If (i) the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved or implemented, (ii) the Sponsor and the Board decide not to seek further extension pursuant to the currently effective Charter, and (iii) a business combination is not completed on or before July 28, 2023, AIMA 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, complete the redemption of all issued and outstanding 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 AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption and subject to the approval of AIMA’s remaining shareholders after such redemption and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to AIMA’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

In addition, neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other.

Table of Contents

Q: If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, what happens next?

A: If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate its initial business combination, and the Company may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the period of time to consummate its initial business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (for a total of nine months up to April 28, 2024), subject to the Sponsor depositing Monthly Extension Fee into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the Charter Amendment. However, pursuant to its Charter, AIMA will not implement the Charter Amendment Proposal if AIMA will not have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon its implementation of the Charter Amendment Proposal, after taking into account the Amendment Redemption.

In addition, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, the removal from the Trust Account of the amount equal to the pro rata portion of funds available in the Trust Account with respect to redeemed public shares in the Amendment Redemption will reduce the amount remaining in the Trust Account and increase the percentage interest of AIMA held by the Insiders and their affiliates.

Q: Is the Company subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940?

A: The Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 in connection with its initial public offering (the “IPO”) (File No. 333-263874) was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange commission on April 25, 2022 and the Company completed its IPO on April 28, 2022. Since the Company is a blank check company, the efforts of its management since the completion of its IPO have been focused on searching for a target business with which to consummate a business combination. As of the date hereof, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with any targets and is still searching for a target to complete a business combination.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules (the “SPAC Rule Proposals”), which include proposals relating to the circumstances in which special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) such as the Company could be subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and the regulations thereunder. The SPAC Rule Proposals would provide a safe harbor from one prong of the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act for a SPAC satisfying certain conditions that limit a SPAC’s duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities. To comply with the duration limitation of the proposed safe harbor, a SPAC would have a limited time period to announce and complete a de-SPAC transaction. Specifically, the SPAC Rule Proposals would require a company to file a report on Form 8-K announcing that it has entered into an agreement with a target company for an initial business combination no later than 18 months after the effective date of the SPAC’s registration statement for its IPO (an “IPO Registration Statement”). The SPAC also would need to complete its initial business combination no later than 24 months after the effective date of the IPO Registration Statement.

Since the consummation of its IPO, the Company has deposited the proceeds of its IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below) in connection with the IPO (including proceeds of the partial exercise of over-allotment options and the Private Placement in connection with such exercise), net of certain expenses and working capital, into the Trust Account to invest in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. As a result, it is possible that a claim could be made that the Company has been operating as an unregistered investment company. If the Company was deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, it might be forced to abandon its efforts to complete an initial business combination and instead be required to liquidate. If the Company is required to liquidate, its investors would not be able to realize the benefits of owning stock in a successor operating business, such as any appreciation in the value of the Company’s securities following such a transaction, the Company’s warrants and rights would expire worthless and Class A Ordinary Shares would have no value apart from their pro rata entitlement to the funds then-remaining in the Trust Account.

Table of Contents

being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act), the Company may instruct U.S. Bank, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations and money market funds held in the Trust Account on April 25, 2024, the expiry of the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the Company’s IPO Prospectus, and to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or liquidation. If the Company decides to effect such liquidation, the Company will issue a press release announcing such liquidation no later than April 25, 2024. If the Company liquidates the trust assets on April 25, 2024 and hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash only, following such liquidation, the Company will likely continue to receive, minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount its public stockholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

Q: If I vote for or against the Charter Amendment Proposal, can I request that my shares be redeemed?

A: Yes. Whether you vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” the Charter Amendment Proposal, or do not vote at all, you may elect to redeem your public shares, provided that the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented. Public shareholders who wish to redeem your public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal and who have not elected to separate your Units into New Units and Class 1 Warrants must separate your Units (symbol “AIMAU”, CUSIP Number: G0135E 100) into New Units (symbol “AIMBU”, CUSIP Number: G0135E 142) and class 1 Warrants (symbol “AIMAW”, CUSIP Number: G0135E 126) before you submit redemption requests. Public shareholders who wish to redeem their Public Shares and who hold New Units do not need to separate your New Units, and may submit New Units for redemption of such public shares. As a result, the Public Shares underlying the New Units will be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account, and the Class 2 Warrants underlying the new units will be forfeited and cancelled. Please see the question “How do I exercise my redemption rights?” below for further information on how to exercise redemption rights.

Q: Will how I vote affect my ability to exercise redemption rights?

A: You may exercise your redemption rights regardless of whether or not you vote for or against the proposals, or vote at all, and regardless of whether you are a holder of public shares on the Record Date (so long as you are a holder at the time of exercise). However, under AIMA’s Charter, AIMA is only obligated to provide you with the opportunity to redeem your public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal upon the approval of such proposal and AIMA will not implement the Charter Amendment Proposal if AIMA will not have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon its implementation of the Charter Amendment Proposal, after taking into account the Amendment Redemption.

Q: May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card?

A: Yes. If you have submitted a proxy to vote your shares and wish to change your vote, you may do so by delivering a later-dated, signed proxy card to Advantage Proxy, Inc., our proxy solicitor, prior to the date of the Shareholder Meeting or by voting in person at the Shareholder Meeting. Attendance at the Shareholder Meeting alone will not change your vote. You also may revoke your proxy by sending a notice of revocation to: Advantage Proxy, Inc., P.O. Box 13581, Des Moines, WA 98198.

The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If your Units or New Units are held of record by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must instruct your broker, bank or other nominee that you wish to change your vote by following the procedures on the voting instruction form provided to you by the broker, bank or other nominee. If your shares are held in street name, and you wish to attend the Shareholder Meeting and vote at the Shareholder Meeting, you must bring to the Shareholder Meeting a legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares, confirming your beneficial ownership of the shares and giving you the right to vote your shares.

The form of the proxy card is attached as Annex B.

Q: How are votes counted?

A: Voting on all resolutions at the Shareholder Meeting will be conducted by way of a poll rather than on a show of hands. On a poll, votes are counted according to the number of shares registered in each shareholder’s name which are voted, with each Class A Ordinary Share and Class B Ordinary Share carrying one vote.

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Shareholder Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “AGAINST” votes, “ABSTAIN” and broker non-votes. Shareholders who attend the Shareholder Meeting, either in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by sending their duly authorized representative or proxy), will be counted (and the number of Ordinary Shares held by such shareholders will be counted) for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Shareholder Meeting.

At the Shareholder Meeting, only those votes which are actually cast, either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal, will be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal (as the case may be) is approved, and any Ordinary Shares which are not voted at the Shareholder Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of such votes. Abstentions, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.

Q: If my shares are held in “street name,” will my bank, broker or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

A: The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If your shares are held in “street name” in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, broker or other nominee, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares. Please follow the voting instructions provided by your bank, broker or other nominee. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares. Your broker can tell you how to provide these instructions.

Under the rules of Nasdaq, brokers who hold shares in “street name” for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, brokers are not permitted to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the approval of matters that Nasdaq determines to be “non-routine” without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. It is expected that all proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters and therefore, AIMA does not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting.

If you hold your shares in “street name” and you do not instruct your bank, broker or other nominee on how to vote your shares, your bank, broker or other nominee will not vote your shares on the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal. Accordingly, your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares at the Shareholder Meeting only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares as soon as possible in accordance with directions you provide.

Q: Does the Board recommend voting “FOR” the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A: Yes. After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board has determined that the Charter Amendment Proposal is in the best interests of AIMA and its shareholders and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Q: What interests do AIMA’s directors and officers have in the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A: Aside from their interests as shareholders, the Insiders have interests that differ from the interests of other shareholders generally. For more details, see the sections entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — Interests of the Initial Shareholders,” and “Beneficial Ownership of Securities” of this proxy statement.

Table of Contents

Q: Do I have appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights if I object to the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A: No. There are no appraisal rights available to AIMA’s shareholders in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Q: What do I need to do now?

A: You are urged to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement and to consider how the Charter Amendment Proposal will affect you as a shareholder. You should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement and on the enclosed proxy card or, if you hold your shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, on the voting instruction form provided by the bank, broker or nominee.

Q: How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A: If you are a public shareholder and wish to exercise your right to redeem your public shares, you must:

(a) separate your Units into New Units and Class 1 Warrants, if applicable;

(b) hold New Units;

(c) submit a written request to VStock, the Transfer Agent in which you request that AIMA redeem all or a portion of your public shares underlying the New Units for cash; and

(d) tender your New Units by either delivering your certificate (if any) and other redemption forms to the Transfer Agent or by delivering your New Units electronically using the Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian) system. The address of the Transfer Agent is listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Holders who intend to exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their public shares underlying the New Units in the manner described above prior to the scheduled vote at the Shareholder Meeting in order for their shares to be redeemed.

In connection with the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, any public shareholder will be entitled to request that their public shares be redeemed for 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. As of the Record Date, this would have amounted to approximately $10.49 per public share. However, the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of our creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of our Public Shareholders. Therefore, the per share distribution from the Trust Account in such a situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. We anticipate that the funds to be distributed to the public shareholders electing to redeem their Class A Ordinary Shares in the Amendment Redemption will be distributed promptly after the Shareholder Meeting.

Any request for Amendment Redemption, once made by a public shareholder, may be withdrawn (with the consent of the board of directors of the Company (which they may do in whole or in part)) at any time (the “Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline”). If you deliver your shares for Amendment Redemption to the Transfer Agent and later decide not to elect redemption, you may request before the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline that AIMA instruct the Transfer Agent to return the shares (physically or electronically). We will be required to honor such request only if made prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. After this time, a request for Amendment Redemption may not be withdrawn unless the

Table of Contents

Board determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which it may do in whole or in part). Such a request must be made by contacting the Transfer Agent at the phone number or address listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests in connection with the Amendment Redemption and, thereafter, prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. No request for such redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent prior to the scheduled vote at the Shareholder Meeting.

If a public shareholder exercises his, her or its redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption, then he, she or it will be exchanging his, her or its public shares for cash and will no longer own those shares and will lose the Class 2 Warrants automatically.

In addition, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and if AIMA is not able to complete an initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), AIMA will be obligated to complete the redemption of all the remaining issued and outstanding Public Shares that were not redeemed in the Amendment Redemption as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days after July 28, 2023 ( or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), after taking into account the Amendment Redemption, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the remaining issued and outstanding Public Shares after completion of the Amendment Redemption. As of the close of business on July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), all remaining issued and outstanding public shares (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption) will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The redemption amount will be payable to the holders of these remaining Public Shares upon presentation of their respective share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms or other delivery of their shares to the Transfer Agent. Beneficial owners of such public shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the Redemption Amount. Upon the completion of the Amendment Redemption, the Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) will be extinguished so will their rights as holders of Class 2 warrants attached to the redeemed public shares.

Q: Will I lose Class 2 Warrants if I exercise my redemption rights?

A: Although you have the right to have your public shares redeemed in our initial business combination or in a shareholder vote in connection with the Charter Amendment proposal, if you do so you will lose your Class 2 Warrants associated with those shares. This is different from other special purpose acquisition companies, which generally provide that holders of shares that are redeemed can keep the warrants associated with those shares.

Q: What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials for the Shareholder Meeting?

A: You may receive more than one set of voting materials for the Shareholder Meeting, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in

Table of Contents

more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast your vote with respect to all of your shares.

The form of the proxy card is attached as Annex B.

Q: Who will solicit and pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Shareholder Meeting?

A: AIMA will pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Shareholder Meeting. AIMA has engaged Advantage Proxy, Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Shareholder Meeting. AIMA will also reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of New Units for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of New Units and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. The directors, officer and employees of AIMA may also solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by mail or on the Internet. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies.

Q: Who can help answer my questions?

A: If you have questions about the proposals or if you need additional copies of this proxy statement or the enclosed proxy card (in the form attached as Annex B) you should contact:

BACKGROUND

We are a blank check exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on July 26, 2021 with limited liability (meaning our public shareholders have no liability, as shareholders of the Company, for the liabilities of the Company over and above the amount paid for their shares) to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses.

We presently have no revenue, have had losses since inception from incurring formation and operating costs and have had no operations other than identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates. We have relied upon the working capital available to us following the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below) to fund our operations, as well as the funds loaned by the Sponsor, our officers, directors or their affiliates.

On April 28, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 8,050,000 units (the “Units”), which included 1,050,000 Units issued upon the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Warrants”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per unit. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $80,500,000. On April 28, 2022, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 492,000 units (the “Private Units”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $4,920,000.

The proceeds of $ 82,110,000 in the aggregate from the IPO and the Private Placement, were placed in the Trust Account.

On June 14, 2022, the Company announced that holders of the Company’s Units may elect to separately trade the Class 1 redeemable warrants included in the Units (the “Class 1 Warrants”) commencing on June 16, 2022. Each Unit consists of one Class 1 Warrant, one Class A Ordinary Shares and one-half of one Class 2 redeemable warrant (the “Class 2 Warrants”).

The new units resulting from such separation (each such unit consisting of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant, the “New Units”) and the Class 1 Warrants would trade on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “AIMBU” and “AIMAW”, respectively. Any Units not separated would continue to trade under the symbol “AIMAU”.

As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any definitive agreements, for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

The Company initially had until July 28, 2023 to complete an initial business combination. However, if the Company anticipated that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by July 28, 2023, the Company may, but is not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to January 28, 2024.

As of the date hereof, there were 8,542,000 New Units issued and outstanding and there is approximately $84.50 million remaining in the Trust Account as of the Record Date. As of the Record Date, there were 8,542,000 issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and 2,012,500 issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares.

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of IPO and the Private Placements, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a Business Combination.

Business Combination Strategy and Geographic Reach

We are focused on identifying unique business concepts with high-performing organizations that have both aspirations to accelerate growth and create enduring value within the technology, hospitality or consumer services sector. While we will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region in our identification and acquisition

Table of Contents

of a target company, we intend to focus on technology, consumer and hospitality and will not complete our initial business combination with a target that is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau) or conducts a majority of its business in China (including Hong Kong and Macau).

All of our current officers and directors are U.S. citizens except that certain members of our management are Taiwan citizens. We do not believe that our officers, directors, sponsor and members of our sponsor have significant ties to China, except that our CFO, Mr. Tian, and our director, Dr. Li, lived in China more than twenty years ago. However, both Mr. Tian and Dr. Li are U.S. citizens and have spent their professional career in the United States (with the exception that Dr. Li worked as the CFO of a pharmaceutical company in China from 2017 to 2018). As we disclose in our Prospectus that we will not complete our initial business combination with a target that is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau) or conducts a majority of its business in China (including Hong Kong and Macau), we do not believe the historical path of one officer and one director will result in a material change in our search for a target company and the value of the securities that we are registering for sale. However, we cannot predict the perception from potential target companies or the market, it is uncertain whether that would make us a less attractive partner to a non-China-based target company and such perception may potentially limit or negatively impact our search for an initial business combination.

Enforceability of Civil Liability

Our Chief Executive Officer , who is also our Chairman and director, and one of our independent directors, are located in Taiwan. All our remaining directors and officers are based in the United States. Our Sponsor is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Further, there is uncertainty if any officers and directors of the post-combination entity will be located outside 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 those officers and directors (prior to or after the business combination) located outside the United States, to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties on them under United States securities laws.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the Taiwan Civil Procedures Law. Taiwan courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the Taiwan Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between Taiwan and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. Taiwan does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the Taiwan Civil Procedures Law, the Taiwan 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 Taiwan laws or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a Taiwan court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

There is also uncertainty as to whether courts of the Cayman Islands would (i) recognize or enforce judgement of courts of the United States against us, our Sponsor or our directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or (ii) entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us, our Sponsor or our directors and officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. There is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States. The courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a foreign judgment at common law, without any reexamination of the merits of the underlying dispute, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment debt in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, provided such judgment: (a) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction; (b) imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given; (c) is final; (d) is not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, (e) was not obtained by fraud; and (f) is not of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the United States courts under civil liability provisions of the securities law of the United States if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Potential Application of Investment Company Act

The Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 in connection with its IPO (File No. 333-263874) was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange commission on April 25, 2022 and the Company completed its IPO on April 28, 2022. Since the Company is a blank check company, the efforts of its management since the completion of its IPO have been focused on searching for a target business with which to consummate a business combination. As of the date hereof, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with any targets and is still searching for a target to complete a business combination.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued the SPAC Rule Proposals, which include proposals relating to the circumstances in which special purpose acquisition companies such as the Company could be subject to the Investment Company Act, and the regulations thereunder. The SPAC Rule Proposals would provide a safe harbor from one prong of the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act for a SPAC satisfying certain conditions that limit a SPAC’s duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities. To comply with the duration limitation of the proposed safe harbor, a SPAC would have a limited time period to announce and complete a de-SPAC transaction. Specifically, the SPAC Rule Proposals would require a company to file a report on Form 8-K announcing that it has entered into an agreement with a target company for an initial business combination no later than 18 months after the effective date of the SPAC’s IPO Registration Statement. The SPAC also would need to complete its initial business combination no later than 24 months after the effective date of the IPO Registration Statement.

The longer that the funds in the Trust Account are held in short-term U.S. government treasury obligations or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, there is a greater risk that the Company may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case the Company may be required to liquidate. The Company is currently assessing the relevant risks and it is possible that to mitigate the risk of the Company being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act), the Company may instruct U.S. Bank, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations and money market funds held in the Trust Account on April 25, 2024, the expiry of the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the Company’s IPO Prospectus, and to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or liquidation. If the Company decides to effect such liquidation, the Company will issue a press release announcing such liquidation no later than April 25, 2024. If the Company liquidates the trust assets on April 25, 2024 and hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash only, following such liquidation, the Company will likely continue to receive, minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount its public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

U.S. Foreign Investment Regulations

Our Sponsor, Aimfinity Investment LLC, is a Cayman Islands limited liability company and is controlled by a sole member and manager, Mr. I-Fa Chang, who is also our CEO and Chairman. Mr. Chang is a Taiwanese citizen. As of the date hereto, the Sponsor currently owns 1,692,500 Class B Ordinary Shares, or approximately 16.03% of our issued and outstanding shares. Controlling or non-controlling investments in U.S. businesses that produce, design, test, manufacture, fabricate or develop one or more critical technologies in one of 27 identified industries — including aviation, defense, semiconductors, telecommunications and biotechnology — are subject

Table of Contents

to a mandatory filing with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (“CFIUS”). In addition, CFIUS is an interagency committee authorized to review certain transactions involving foreign investment in the United States by foreign persons in order to determine the effect of such transactions on the national security of the United States. Because we may be considered a “foreign person” under such rules and regulations, any proposed business combination between us and a U.S. business engaged in a regulated industry or which may affect national security, we could be subject to such foreign ownership restrictions and/or CFIUS review. The scope of CFIUS 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 subject certain categories of investments to mandatory filings. If our potential initial Business Combination with a U.S. business falls within the scope of foreign ownership restrictions, we may be unable to consummate a business combination with such business. In addition, if our potential business combination falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, we may be required to make a mandatory filing or determine to submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company if we had proceeded without first obtaining CFIUS clearance. The foreign ownership limitations, and the potential impact of CFIUS, may limit the attractiveness of a transaction with us or prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete an initial business combination may be limited and we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues.

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy. Because we have only a limited time to complete our initial business combination our failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time period may require us to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public shareholders may only receive $10.20 per unit initially, and our Warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose any potential investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders

This proxy statement is being provided to AIMA shareholders as part of a solicitation of proxies by the Board for use at the extraordinary general meeting of AIMA shareholders to be held on July 27, 2023, and at any adjournment thereof. This proxy statement contains important information regarding the Shareholder Meeting, the proposals on which you are being asked to vote and information you may find useful in determining how to vote and voting procedures.

This proxy statement is being first mailed on or about July 10, 2023 to all shareholders of record of AIMA as of the close of business on June 28, 2023, the Record Date for the Shareholder Meeting. Shareholders of record who owned Ordinary Shares at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at the Shareholder Meeting.

Date, Time and Place of Shareholder Meeting

The Shareholder Meeting will be held on July 27, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the 3F., No. 25, Gongyuan Rd., Pingtung City, Pingtung County, Taiwan (R.O.C.), and virtually via teleconference, for which you must register in advance at: https://robinsoncole.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYqcemvrzgrGd0L0dFtye-RxOyH8b-HSjhY, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be postponed or adjourned.

The Proposals at the Shareholder Meeting

At the Shareholder Meeting, AIMA shareholders will consider and vote on the following proposals:

1. Proposal No. 1 — Charter Amendment Proposal — To approve by way of a special resolution that, the Company’s Charter, which currently provides that the Company has 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) if such date is extended as described in the IPO Prospectus, or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the Charter, to consummate

Table of Contents

a business, be deleted in their entirety and the substitution in their place of the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company in the form attached as Annex A hereto which provides that the Company has until July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, and may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024; and

If the shareholders approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate an initial business combination, and, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, at the request by our Sponsor, the Company may by resolution of our board of directors elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional Monthly Extension, for a total of up to nine months to the Extended Termination Date. For each Monthly Extension, our sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Company’s Trust Account the Monthly Extension Fee. If there is (i) no redemption of the New Units, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, (ii) a 50% redemption of the New Units, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, and (iii) an 80% redemption of the New Units, the Monthly Extension Fee will be approximately $68,336. The first Monthly Extension Fee after the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal must be made by July 28, 2023, while the subsequent Monthly Extension Fee must be deposited into the Trust Account by the 28th of each succeeding month until March 28, 2024.

In addition, the units offered in our initial public offering are currently traded on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMAU”, each consisting of one New Unit (currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMBU”) and one Class 1 Warrant (currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AIMAW”). Each New Unit consists of one public share, and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant. However, the New Units will not separate into public shares and Class 2 Warrants, and the public shares and the Class 2 Warrants will not trade separately, unless and until consummation of our initial business combination. As provided in the Company’s IPO Prospectus and the Warrant Agreement, the holders of New Units will forfeit their Class 2 Warrants in the event that they elect to redeem public shares. As a result, if you elect to redeem public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal, you may submit your New Units (Symbol “AIMBU”, CUSIP Number: G0135E 142) for redemption of such public shares, as a result of which, your public shares underlying the redeeming New Units will be redeemed and the Class 2 Warrants underlying the redeeming New Units will be automatically forfeited and cancelled without any additional actions by you.

Neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved at the Shareholder Meeting, the Adjournment Proposal will not be presented.

Voting Power; Record Date

As a shareholder of AIMA, you have a right to vote on certain matters affecting AIMA. The proposals that will be presented at the Shareholder Meeting and upon which you are being asked to vote are summarized above and fully set forth in this proxy statement. You will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Shareholder Meeting if you owned Ordinary Shares at the close of business on June 28, 2023, which is the Record Date for the Shareholder Meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each Class A Ordinary Share and Class B Ordinary Share that you owned as of the close of business on the Record Date. The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the Record Date, there were 8,542,000 issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares held by the public shareholders and 2,012,500 Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Initial Shareholders.

Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will not count as votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the Charter Amendment Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal.

Under Nasdaq rules, if a shareholder holds their shares in “street” name through a bank, broker or other nominee and the shareholder does not instruct their bank, broker or other nominee how to vote their shares on a proposal, the bank, broker or other nominee has the authority to vote the shares in its discretion on certain “routine” matters. However, banks, brokers and other nominees are not authorized to exercise their voting discretion on any “non-routine” matters. This can result in a “broker non-vote,” which occurs on a proposal when (i) a bank, broker or other nominee has discretionary authority to vote on one or more “routine” proposals to be voted on at a meeting of shareholders, (ii) there are one or more “non-routine” proposals to be voted on at the meeting for which the bank, broker or other nominee does not have authority to vote without instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares and (iii) the beneficial owner fails to provide the bank, broker or other nominee with voting instructions on a “non-routine” matter.

We believe that all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting will be considered non-routine matters. The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. As a result, if you hold your shares in street name, your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee cannot vote the shares you beneficially own on any of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting without your instruction.

Because all of the proposals to be voted on at the Shareholder Meeting are “non-routine” matters, banks, brokers and other nominees will not have authority to vote on any proposals unless instructed, so we do not expect there to be any broker non-votes at the Shareholder Meeting.

Vote Required for Approval

Proxies; Board Solicitation

Your proxy is being solicited by the Board on the proposals being presented to shareholders at the Shareholder Meeting to approve the proposals. No recommendation is being made as to whether you should elect to redeem your shares. Proxies may be solicited in person or by telephone. If you grant a proxy, you may still revoke your proxy and vote your shares in person at the Shareholder Meeting.

Table of Contents

No Additional Matters

The Shareholder Meeting has been called only to consider and vote on the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, and, if presented, the Adjournment Proposal. The Board does not know of any other matters to be presented at the Shareholder Meeting. If any additional matters are properly presented at the Shareholder Meeting, absence any express instructions to the contrary, the individual(s) named in the enclosed proxy card (in the form attached as Annex B) will have discretion to vote the shares they represent in accordance with their own judgment on such matters.

Who Can Answer Your Questions about Voting

Redemption Rights

In connection with the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, AIMA’s public shareholders may demand that AIMA redeem their public shares underlying the New Units 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares (which, for illustrative purposes, was approximately $10.49 per share as of June 28, 2023, the Record Date for the Shareholder Meeting), regardless of whether they vote for or against, or whether they abstain from voting on, the Charter Amendment Proposal. If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this section and the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, AIMA will redeem these 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, and the holder will no longer own these shares following the redemption. However, AIMA will not implement the Charter Amendment Proposal if AIMA will not have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets following approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, after taking into account the Amendment Redemption.

As a Public Shareholder, you will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i) separate your Units into New Units and Class 1 Warrants, if applicable;

(ii) hold New Units;

(iii) submit a written request to VStock, the Transfer Agent, in which you request that AIMA redeem all or a portion of your public shares underlying the New Units for cash; and

(iv) tender your New Units by either delivering your certificate (if any) and other redemption forms to the Transfer Agent or by delivering your New Units electronically using the Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian) system.

Holders who intend to exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their public shares underlying the New Units in the manner described above prior to the scheduled vote at the shareholder meeting in order for their shares to be redeemed.

The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If you hold your shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your bank, broker or other nominee to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Shares of AIMA that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash in connection with the Amendment Redemption. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through DTC’s DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder.

Table of Contents

Any request for Amendment Redemption, once made by a Public Shareholder, may be withdrawn (with the consent of the board of directors of the Company (which they may do in whole or in part)) at any time up to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 25, 2023. If you deliver your shares for Amendment Redemption to the Transfer Agent and later decide not to elect redemption, you may request before the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline that AIMA instruct the Transfer Agent to return the shares (physically or electronically). We will be required to honor such request only if made prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. After this time, a request for Amendment Redemption may not be withdrawn unless the Board determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which it may do in whole or in part).

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests in connection with the Amendment Redemption and, thereafter, prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. No request for such redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent, prior to the scheduled vote at the Shareholder Meeting.

If a public shareholder properly makes a request for Amendment Redemption and the New Units are delivered as described above and the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, then, AIMA will redeem such Class A Ordinary 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of New Units as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their New Units in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per unit is higher than the redemption price. AIMA cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their New Units in the open market, even if the market price per unit is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its shares when its shareholders wish to sell their shares.

If a Public Shareholder exercises their redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption, then he, she or it will be exchanging his, her or its public shares underlying the New Units for cash and will no longer own those New Units. The public shares underlying the redeeming New Units will be redeemed and the Class 2 Warrants underlying the redeeming New Units will also be automatically forfeited and cancelled without any additional actions by you. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly demand redemption by delivering your share certificate (if any) and other redemption forms (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent as described above and the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented.

In addition, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and if AIMA is not able to complete an initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), AIMA will be obligated to complete the redemption of all the remaining issued and outstanding public shares that were not redeemed in the Amendment Redemption as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days after July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended) (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the remaining issued and outstanding Public Shares after completion of the Amendment Redemption. As of the close of business on July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), all remaining issued and outstanding New Units, the underlying public shares and underlying Class 2 Warrants (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption) will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The redemption amount will be payable to the holders of these remaining New Units upon presentation of their respective share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms or other delivery of their shares to the Transfer Agent. Beneficial owners of such shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the Redemption Amount. Upon the completion of the Amendment Redemption, the Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) will be extinguished.

Table of Contents

For a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for shareholders with respect to the exercise of these redemption rights, see “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Shareholders Exercising Redemption Rights.” The consequences of a redemption to any particular shareholder will depend on that shareholder’s particular facts and circumstances. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your tax advisor to determine your tax consequences from the exercise of your redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax laws in light of your particular circumstances.

Appraisal Rights

There are no appraisal rights available to AIMA’s shareholders in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal.

AIMA is soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board. This proxy solicitation is being made by mail, but also may be made by telephone or in person. AIMA has engaged Advantage Proxy, Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Shareholder Meeting. AIMA and its directors, officer and employees may also solicit proxies in person. AIMA will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward this proxy statement and the related proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions.

AIMA will bear the entire cost of the proxy solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, mailing and distribution of this proxy statement and the related proxy materials. AIMA will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding this proxy statement and the related proxy materials to AIMA shareholders.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

AIMA is proposing to amend its Charter to extend the date by which AIMA has to consummate a business combination to July 28, 2023 to complete a business combination, and may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested the Sponsor, without the need for further approval of the Company’s shareholders, elect to extend the period to consummate a business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 28, 2024.

On the Record Date, the redemption price per share was approximately $10.49 (which is expected to be the same approximate amount prior to the Shareholder Meeting), based on the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account of approximately $84.50 million as of the Record Date, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA to pay its taxes, divided by the total number of then outstanding public shares. There is a public market for the trading of the New Units, each of which consists of one public share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant. There is no separate trading for public shares, and the public shareholders who wish to redeem their public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal may submit their new units for redemption of such public shares. As a result, the public shares underlying the new units will be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account and the Class 2 Warrants will be forfeited. The closing price of the New Units on Nasdaq on the Record Date was $10.47. Accordingly, if the market price of the New Units were to remain the same until the date of the Shareholder Meeting, exercising redemption rights would result in a Public Shareholder receiving approximately $0.02 more per share than if the shares were sold in the open market (based on the estimated per share redemption price as of the Record Date). However, you will lose the Class 2 Warrants attached to the redeemed public shares. AIMA cannot assure shareholders that they will be able to sell their New Units in the open market, even if the market price per unit is lower than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its shares when such shareholders wish to sell their shares.

Reasons for the Charter Amendment Proposal

AIMA is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 26, 2021. AIMA was incorporated for the purpose of effecting merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. After the closing of the IPO in April 2022, and consistent with AIMA’s business purpose, the Board and AIMA’s management commenced an active search for potential business combination targets, leveraging AIMA’s and the Sponsor’s network of relationships and intimate knowledge of the private company marketplace.

As of the date of this proxy statement, AIMA has not entered into an agreement to effectuate a business combination with any of the potential targets that it has reviewed due to a variety of reasons, including, among other things: (i) the parties’ inability to reach an agreement on valuation; (ii) AIMA’s preliminary assessment of the relevant target company’s business model, customer concentration, competitive landscape and corresponding risks to future financial performance; (iii) AIMA’s preliminary assessment of the relevant target company’s ability to execute its business and financial plans and scale its business; and (iv) alternative options available to potential targets, such as pursuing a traditional initial public offering or waiting for the capital markets to improve before pursuing a listing.

The current Charter, the Trust Agreement and the IPO Prospectus provide that the Company must complete its initial business combination within 15 months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering on April 28, 2022 (i.e. until July 28, 2023), or (i) up to 21 months (i.e. up to January 28, 2024) from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering if such date is extended subject to the Sponsor depositing $268,333, representing $0.033333 per remaining public share, up to an aggregate of $1,400,000, or $0.20 per unit, on or prior to the date of the deadline. In the event that the Company does not consummate its initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to January 28, 2024, if extended), the Company shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) business days thereafter to redeem the public shares to the holders of public shares, 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 the Company (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any);

Table of Contents

and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining public shareholders and our directors, liquidate and dissolve the Company, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under the Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. Further, the IPO Prospectus and the Charter provide that the Company may amend the Original Termination Date by special resolution provided that the holders of the public shares are provided with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon the approval or effectiveness 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares.

After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board has determined that the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of AIMA and its shareholders and recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

If the Charter Amendment Proposal Is Not Approved

If, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, AIMA may put the Adjournment Proposal to a vote in order to seek additional time to obtain sufficient votes in support of the Charter Amendment Proposal. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by AIMA’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates in the event that there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal.

If (i) the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved or implemented, (ii) the Sponsor and the Board decide not to seek further extension pursuant to the currently effective Charter, and (iii) a business combination is not completed on or before July 28, 2023, AIMA 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, complete the redemption of all issued and outstanding 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 AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption and subject to the approval of AIMA’s remaining shareholders after such redemption and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to AIMA’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

In addition, neither of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other.

If the Charter Amendment Proposal Is Approved

If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Company will have until July 28, 2023 to consummate its initial business combination, and the Company may, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, extend the period of time to consummate its initial business combination up to nine times, each by an additional one month (up to a total of nine months to April 28, 2024), subject to the Sponsor and/or its designee depositing additional funds into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the Charter Amendment. However, pursuant to

Table of Contents

its Charter, AIMA will not implement the Charter Amendment Proposal if AIMA will not have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon its implementation of the Charter Amendment Proposal, after taking into account the Amendment Redemption.

Pursuant to the Charter, a Public Shareholder may request that the Company redeem all or a portion of its Public Shares for cash if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented (the “Amendment Redemption”). Public Shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares even if they vote FOR the Charter Amendment Proposal. On the Record Date, the redemption price per share was approximately $10.49 (which is expected to be the same approximate amount prior to the Shareholder Meeting), based on the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account of approximately $84.50 million as of the Record Date, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA to pay its taxes, divided by the total number of then outstanding public shares. There is a public market for the trading of the New Units, each of which consists of one public share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant. There is no separate trading for public shares, and the public shareholders who wish to redeem their public shares in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal may submit their new units for redemption of such public shares. As a result, the public shares underlying the new units will be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds available in the Trust Account and the Class 2 Warrants will be forfeited. The closing price of the New Units on Nasdaq on the Record Date was $10.47. Accordingly, if the market price of the New Units were to remain the same until the date of the Shareholder Meeting, exercising redemption rights would result in a Public Shareholder receiving approximately $0.02 more per share than if the shares were sold in the open market (based on the estimated per share redemption price as of the Record Date). However, you will lose the Class 2 Warrants attached to the redeemed public shares. AIMA cannot assure shareholders that they will be able to sell their New Units in the open market, even if the market price per unit is lower than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its shares when such shareholders wish to sell their shares.

In addition, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and if AIMA is not able to complete an initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), AIMA will be obligated to complete the redemption of all the remaining issued and outstanding public shares that were not redeemed in the Amendment Redemption as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days after July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended) (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the remaining issued and outstanding Public Shares after completion of the Amendment Redemption. As of the close of business on July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), all remaining issued and outstanding New Units, the underlying public shares and underlying Class 2 Warrants (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption) will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The redemption amount will be payable to the holders of these remaining New Units upon presentation of their respective share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms or other delivery of their shares to the Transfer Agent. Beneficial owners of such shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the Redemption Amount. Upon the completion of the Amendment Redemption, the Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) will be extinguished.

To effectuate each Monthly Extension, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees will deposit the Monthly Extension Fee in the amount of the lesser of (i) $85,000 for all remaining public shares and (ii) $0.04 for each remaining public share at the time of such deposit in the Trust Account. If there is (i) no redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, (ii) a 50% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be $85,000, and (iii) an 80% redemption of the public shares, the Monthly Extension Fee will be approximately $68,336. The first Monthly Extension Fee after the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal must be made by July 28, 2023, while the subsequent Monthly Extension Fee must be deposited into the Trust Account by 28th day of each succeeding month until March 28, 2024.

Interests of the Insiders of the Company

When you consider the recommendation of the Board, AIMA shareholders should be aware that aside from their interests as shareholders, the Insiders of the Company have interests that differ from the interests of other shareholders generally. The Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in recommending to AIMA shareholders that they approve the Charter Amendment Proposal. AIMA shareholders should take the following interests into account when deciding whether to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal:

• Without the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Sponsor may only be able to recover its investment in AIMA by way of (i) AIMA’s redemption of these Public Shares upon the exercise of its redemption rights in connection with a shareholder vote on a proposed business combination, (ii) AIMA’s redemption of these Public Shares upon the approval of any other amendment to any provision of the Charter relating to the rights of holders of Class A Ordinary Shares, or (iii) liquidation of the Trust Account if AIMA has not completed an initial business combination by the Original Termination Date;

• the fact that the Insiders, which include the Sponsor, directors and officers of the Company and certain former directors and officers of the Company, have agreed not to redeem any Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a business combination or the Charter Amendment Proposal.

• the beneficial ownership by the Sponsor of an aggregate of the 1,692,500 Class B ordinary Shares held (the “Founder Shares”), which would become worthless if the Company does not complete a business combination within the Prescribed Timeline, as the Sponsor has agreed (A) to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed business combination and (B) not to redeem any Founder Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination. The personal and financial interests of the Sponsor may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business combination, completing an initial business combination and influencing the operation of the business following the initial business combination. The Sponsor paid an aggregate of approximately $25,000 for the Founders Shares

• the fact that the Insiders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Ordinary Shares held by them;

• the fact that in order to meet the Company’s working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion (the “Working Capital Loans”). Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of the Company initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the notes (in addition to the extension loans and convertible notes thereunder, if any) may be converted upon consummation of the Company’s business combination into private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the Trust Account, and only to the extent available. The Company’s shareholders have approved the issuance of the units and underlying securities upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert them at the time of the consummation of its initial Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the loans will not be repaid.

• the fact that Insiders will only be reimbursed for any loans extended, fees due or out-of-pocket expenses either (i) prior to the consummation of an initial business combination through funds held outside of the Trust Account or (ii) in connection with or after the consummation of an initial business combination. As of March 31, 2023, AIMA had cash of $5,169 remaining outside of the Trust Account. Certain fees and expenses incurred by Insiders may continue to increase if the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved and implemented;

Table of Contents

• the fact that the Insiders may be incentivized to complete a business combination with a less favorable company or on terms less favorable to shareholders, rather than to liquidate, in which case the Insiders would lose their entire investment. As a result, the Insiders may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a target is an appropriate business with which to effectuate a business combination and/or in evaluating the terms of an initial business combination; and

• the fact that, if the Trust Account is liquidated in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor has agreed to indemnify AIMA to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.20 per Public Share, or such lesser amount on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which AIMA has entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to AIMA, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

Redemption Rights

As a Public Shareholder, you will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i) separate your Units into New Units and Class 1 Warrants, if applicable;

(ii) hold New Units;

(iii) submit a written request to VStock, the Transfer Agent, in which you request that AIMA redeem all or a portion of your public shares underlying the New Units for cash; and

The shares you legally and/or beneficially own are not separated from the Units or New Units you hold. If you hold your shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your bank, broker or other nominee to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. New Units of AIMA that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash in connection with the Amendment Redemption. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through DTC’s DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder.

Table of Contents

Withdrawal Deadline that AIMA instruct the Transfer Agent to return the New Units (physically or electronically). We will be required to honor such request only if made prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. After this time, a request for Amendment Redemption may not be withdrawn unless the Board determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which it may do in whole or in part).

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights in connection with the Amendment Redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent prior to the deadline for exercising redemption requests in connection with the Amendment Redemption and, thereafter, prior to the Amendment Redemption Withdrawal Deadline. No request for such redemption will be honored unless the holder’s shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent, prior to the scheduled vote at the Shareholder Meeting.

In addition, if the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved and implemented, and if AIMA is not able to complete an initial business combination by July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), AIMA will be obligated to complete the redemption of all the remaining issued and outstanding public shares that were not redeemed in the Amendment Redemption as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days after July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended) (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to AIMA (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the remaining issued and outstanding Public Shares after completion of the Amendment Redemption. As of the close of business on July 28, 2023 (or up to April 28, 2024 if extended), all remaining issued and outstanding New Units, the underlying public shares and underlying Class 2 Warrants (after taking into account the Amendment Redemption) will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the redemption amount. The redemption amount will be payable to the holders of these remaining New Units upon presentation of their respective share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms or other delivery of their shares to the Transfer Agent. Beneficial owners of such shares held in “street name,” however, will not need to take any action in order to receive the Redemption Amount. Upon the completion of the Amendment Redemption, the Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) will be extinguished.

Table of Contents

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Board has unanimously approved the Charter Amendment Proposal.

In addition, the Board was mindful of and took into account the conflicts, as described in “Interests of the Insiders of the Company”, between their respective personal pecuniary interests in successfully completing a business combination and the interests of public shareholders. The Board determined that their respective personal pecuniary interests, in the form of the contingent and hypothetical value of Company shares if a business combination is ultimately completed, was substantially less than the additional time, effort and potential liability they might incur if they failed to discharge their fiduciary duties to the Company’s shareholders to the best of their ability, which they, as Company shareholders as well, share.

After careful consideration of all relevant factors, the Board determined that the Charter Amendment Proposal is fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its shareholders, and has declared them advisable.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

The Adjournment Proposal, if adopted, will request the chairman of the Shareholder Meeting (who has agreed to act accordingly) to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates to permit further solicitation of proxies. The adjournment proposal will only be presented to our shareholders in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the other proposal in this proxy statement. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by our shareholders, the chairman of the meeting will not exercise his ability to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date (which he would otherwise have under the Charter) in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Shareholder Meeting to approve the other proposal.

Consequences if the Adjournment Proposal Is Not Approved

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by AIMA’s shareholders, the Board may not be able to adjourn the Shareholder Meeting to a later date in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are insufficient votes from the holders of Ordinary Shares to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal. In such event, the Charter Amendment Proposal would not be implemented.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Shareholder Meeting. Abstentions will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute votes cast at the Shareholder Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR REDEEMING SHAREHOLDERS

The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders (each as defined below, and together, “Holders”) that have their Public Shares redeemed for cash, either pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal or in connection with the Company’s liquidation in the event the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, and the expiration of public warrants in such event. This section applies only to Holders that hold their Units, New Units, public shares or public warrants as “capital assets” for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). For purposes of this discussion, because the components of a unit are generally separable at the option of the holder, the holder of a unit generally should be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as the owner of the underlying Public Share and public warrant components of the unit, and the discussion below with respect to actual Holders of public shares and public warrants also should apply to holders of Units or New Units (as the deemed owners of the underlying public shares and public warrants).

This discussion is limited to U.S. federal income tax considerations and does not address any estate or gift or other U.S. non-income tax considerations or considerations arising under the tax laws of any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. jurisdiction. This discussion does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income and the different consequences that may apply if you are subject to special rules under U.S. federal income tax law that apply to certain types of investors, such as:

• our founders, sponsors, officers or directors or other holders of our Class B ordinary shares or private placement warrants or their affiliates;

• banks, financial institutions or financial services entities;

• broker-dealers;

• taxpayers that are subject to the mark-to-market accounting rules with respect to the Public Shares or public warrants;

• tax-exempt entities;

• governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

• insurance companies;

• regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts;

• partnerships (including entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or pass-through entities (including S Corporations), or persons that hold the Public Shares or public warrants through such partnerships or pass-through entities;

• U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

• persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more (by vote or value) of AIMA’s shares (except as specifically provided below);

• persons that acquired their Public Shares or public warrants pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation;

• persons that hold their Public Shares or public warrants as part of a straddle, constructive sale, hedge, wash sale, conversion or other integrated or similar transaction;

• U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; or

• “specified foreign corporations” (including “controlled foreign corporations”), “passive foreign investment companies” or corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax.

Table of Contents

If a partnership (or any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Public Shares or public warrants, the tax treatment of such partnership and a person treated as a partner of such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding any Public Shares or public warrants and persons that are treated as partners of such partnerships should consult their tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of the Charter Amendment Proposal.

This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), proposed, temporary and final Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof, all as of the date hereof. All of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax considerations described herein.

The Company has not sought, and does not intend to seek, any rulings from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) as to any U.S. federal income tax considerations described herein. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions inconsistent with the considerations discussed below or that any such positions would not be sustained by a court.

THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REDEMPTION OF PUBLIC SHARES AND EXPIRATION OF PUBLIC WARRANTS AS A RESULT OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL. EACH HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH HOLDER OF THE REDEMPTION OF PUBLIC SHARES AND EXPIRATION OF PUBLIC WARRANTS AS A RESULT OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS.

U.S. Holders

As used herein, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of a Public Share or public warrant who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation (or other entity that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized (or treated as created or organized) in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

• an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust if (1) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a United States person

Redemption of Public Shares

Redemption of Public Shares Pursuant to An Exercise of Redemption Rights

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” the redemption of a U.S. Holder’s Public Shares pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights described in this proxy statement is likely to be treated as a distribution of cash to such U.S. Holder in connection with the complete liquidation of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, it is possible that such redemption could be treated as a separate redemption transaction not in connection with the complete liquidation of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If the redemption of a U.S. Holder’s Public Shares pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights described in this proxy statement is treated as a distribution to such U.S. Holder in complete liquidation of the Company, such distribution will be treated as a payment received in exchange for such Public Shares under Section 331 of the Code and taxable to the U.S. Holder as described below under the section entitled “— Redemption of Public Shares in Connection with the Company’s Liquidation” and “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares as a Sale of Public Shares.”

Table of Contents

If a redemption of a U.S. Holder’s Public Shares pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights described in this proxy statement is not treated as a distribution to such holder in complete liquidation of the Company (a “non-liquidating redemption”), the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of Public Shares will instead depend on whether the non-liquidating redemption qualifies as a sale of Public Shares under Section 302 of the Code or is treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code. If the non-liquidating redemption qualifies as a sale of Public Shares by a U.S. Holder, the tax consequences to such U.S. Holder are as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Sale of Public Shares.” If the non-liquidating redemption does not qualify as a sale of Public Shares, a U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution with the tax consequences to such U.S. Holder as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Corporate Distribution.”

Whether a non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares qualifies for sale treatment under Section 302 of the Code will depend largely on the total number of shares in the Company treated as held by the redeemed U.S. Holder before and after the non-liquidating redemption (including any shares of the Company treated as constructively owned by the U.S. Holder as a result of owning public warrants) relative to all of the shares of the Company outstanding both before and after the non-liquidating redemption. A non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares generally will be treated as a sale of Public Shares (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the non-liquidating redemption (1) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. Holder, (2) results in a “complete redemption” of the U.S. Holder’s interest in the Company or (3) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the foregoing tests result in a non-liquidating redemption qualifying for sale treatment, a U.S. Holder takes into account not only shares in the Company actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also shares in the Company that are constructively owned by it under certain attribution rules set forth in the Code. A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to shares owned directly, shares owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder, as well as any shares that the U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include Public Shares which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of public warrants.

In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of the Company’s outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately following the non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares must, among other requirements, be less than eighty percent (80%) of the percentage of the Company’s outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately before the non-liquidating redemption and less than 50 percent of the total combined voting power of the Company. There will be a complete redemption of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (1) all of the Public Shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed or (2) all of the Public Shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed and the U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of shares owned by certain family members and the U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other Public Shares (including any shares constructively owned by the U.S. Holder as a result of owning public warrants). The non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if the non-liquidating redemption results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in the Company. Whether the non-liquidating redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in the Company will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation where such shareholder exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”

If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then a non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares will be treated as a corporate distribution to the redeemed U.S. Holder and the tax effects to such a U.S. Holder will be as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Corporate Distribution.” After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. Holder in the redeemed Public Shares will be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining shares in the Company or, if it has none, to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its public warrants or possibly in other shares in the Company constructively owned by it.

Table of Contents

Whether a non-liquidating redemption satisfies one or more of the foregoing tests will generally depend upon a U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances. This determination may, in appropriate circumstances, take into account other acquisitions or dispositions of the Company’s securities that occur as part of a plan that includes such redemption, including dispositions of the Company’s securities that occur in connection with its liquidation.

U.S. Holders who actually or constructively own at least five percent (5%) by vote or value (or, if the Public Shares are not then considered to be publicly traded, at least one percent (1%) by vote or value) or more of the total outstanding Company shares may be subject to special reporting requirements with respect to a non-liquidating redemption of Public Shares, and such holders should consult with their tax advisors with respect to their reporting requirements.

Redemption of Public Shares in Connection with the Company’s Liquidation

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” a U.S. Holder’s receipt of cash for its Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation is expected to be treated as a distribution to such holder in complete liquidation of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with such distribution treated as a payment received in exchange for such Public Shares under Section 331 of the Code. The consequences of such a redemption to a U.S. Holder are generally as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Sale of Public Shares.” U.S. Holders should consult with their tax advisors regarding any special reporting requirements that may be applicable.

Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Corporate Distribution

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” if the redemption of a U.S. Holder’s Public Shares is treated as a corporate distribution, as discussed above under the section entitled “— Redemption of Public Shares,” the amount of cash received in the redemption generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. If the redemption is treated as a corporate distribution treated as dividend, such dividends paid to a redeeming U.S. Holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends paid to a non-corporate redeeming U.S. Holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. It is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares may prevent a U.S. Holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.

Distributions in excess of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Public Shares. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale of Public Shares and will be treated as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Sale of Public Shares.”

Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Sale of Public Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under the heading “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” if the redemption of a U.S. Holder’s Public Shares is treated as a sale, as discussed above under the section entitled “— Redemption of Public Shares,” a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received in the redemption and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Public Shares redeemed. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Public Shares so disposed of exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders generally will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

U.S. Holders who hold different blocks of Public Shares (including as a result of holding different blocks of Public Shares purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them.

Table of Contents

ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF A REDEMPTION OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR PUBLIC SHARES PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OUR LIQUIDATION, INCLUDING ANY SPECIAL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be a passive foreign investment company (a “PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the Public Shares by value, is passive income, or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (ordinarily, but subject to exceptions, determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year), including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the Public Shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of assets giving rise to passive income.

Because AIMA is a blank check company with no current active business, based upon the composition of its income and assets, and upon a review of its financial statements, AIMA believes that it likely was a PFIC for its most recent taxable year ended on December 31, 2022, and will continue to be treated as a PFIC until we no longer satisfy the PFIC tests (although, as stated below, in general the PFIC rules would continue to apply to any U.S. holder who held our securities at any time we were considered a PFIC).

For a U.S. Holder whose Public Shares are redeemed (a “Redeeming U.S. Holder”), if we are determined to be a PFIC and the Redeeming U.S. Holder did not make either a timely QEF election with respect to its Public Shares for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) Public Shares or a timely “mark to market” election, in each case as described below, such Holder generally will be subject to special rules with respect to:

• any gain recognized by the Redeeming U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its Public Shares (which would include the redemption, if such redemption is treated as a sale under the rules discussed above); and

• any “excess distribution” made to the Redeeming U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such Redeeming U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such Redeeming U.S. Holder in respect of the Public Shares during such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares), which may include the redemption to the extent such redemption is treated as a distribution under the rules discussed above.

Under these special rules,

• the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Public Shares;

• the amount allocated to the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the Redeeming U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of our first taxable year in which we are a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

• the amount allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and included in its holding period will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the Redeeming U.S. Holder; and

• an additional tax equal to the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the Redeeming U.S. Holder in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year described in the immediately preceding clause of the Redeeming U.S. Holder.

Table of Contents

In general, if we are determined to be a PFIC, a Redeeming U.S. Holder may avoid the PFIC tax consequences described above in respect to our shares by making a timely QEF election (if eligible to do so) to include in income its pro rata share of our net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in the taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder in which or with which our taxable year ends. In general, a QEF election must be made on or before the due date (including extensions) for filing such Redeeming U.S. Holder’s tax return for the taxable year for which the election relates. A Redeeming U.S. Holder may make a separate election to defer the payment of taxes on undistributed income inclusions under the QEF rules, but if deferred, any such taxes will be subject to an interest charge.

The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and, once made, can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A Redeeming U.S. Holder generally makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund), including the information provided in a PFIC annual information statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year to which the election relates. Retroactive QEF elections generally may be made only by filing a protective statement with such return and if certain other conditions are met or with the consent of the IRS. Redeeming U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a retroactive QEF election under their particular circumstances.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder’s ability to make a QEF Election with respect to AIMA is contingent upon, among other things, the provision by AIMA of a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” to such Redeeming U.S. Holder. There is no assurance, however, that we would timely provide such required information.

If a Redeeming U.S. Holder has made a QEF election with respect to our Public Shares, and the special tax and interest charge rules do not apply to such Public Shares (because of a timely QEF election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) such Public Shares or a purge of the PFIC taint pursuant to a purging election, as described above), any gain recognized on the sale of our Public Shares generally will be taxable as capital gain and no interest charge will be imposed. As discussed above, Redeeming U.S. Holders of a QEF are currently taxed on their pro rata Public Shares of its earnings and profits, whether or not distributed. In such case, a subsequent distribution of such earnings and profits that were previously included in income generally should not be taxable as a dividend to such Redeeming U.S. Holders. The tax basis of a Redeeming U.S. Holder’s Public Shares in a QEF will be increased by amounts that are included in income, and decreased by amounts distributed but not taxed as dividends, under the above rules. Similar basis adjustments apply to property if by reason of holding such property the Redeeming U.S. Holder is treated under the applicable attribution rules as owning Public Shares in a QEF.

A determination that we are a PFIC for any particular year will generally apply for subsequent years to a Redeeming U.S. Holder who held Public Shares while we were a PFIC, whether or not we meet the test for PFIC status in those subsequent years. A Redeeming U.S. Holder who makes the QEF election discussed above for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our Public Shares and receives the requisite PFIC annual information statement, however, will not be subject to the PFIC tax and interest charge rules discussed above in respect to such Public Shares. In addition, such Redeeming U.S. Holder will not be subject to the QEF inclusion regime with respect to such Public Shares for any taxable year of us that ends within or with a taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder and in which we are not a PFIC. On the other hand, if the QEF election is not effective for each of our taxable years in which we are a PFIC and the Redeeming U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our Public Shares, the PFIC rules discussed above will continue to apply to such Public Shares unless the holder makes a purging election, as described above, and pays the tax and interest charge with respect to the gain inherent in such Public Shares attributable to the pre-QEF election period.

The impact of the PFIC rules on a Redeeming U.S. Holder may also depend on whether the Redeeming U.S. Holder has made an election under Section 1296 of the Code. Redeeming U.S. Holders that hold (directly or constructively) stock of a foreign corporation that is classified as a PFIC may annually elect to mark such stock to its market value if such stock is regularly traded on an established exchange (a “mark-to-market election”). No assurance can be given that the Public Shares are considered to be regularly traded for purposes of the mark-to-market election or whether the other requirements of this election are satisfied. If such an election is available and has been made, such Redeeming U.S. Holders will generally not be subject to the special PFIC taxation rules discussed above. Instead, in general, the Redeeming U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its Public Shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its Public Shares. The Redeeming U.S. Holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if

Table of Contents

any, of the adjusted basis of its Public Shares over the fair market value of its Public Shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The Redeeming U.S. Holder’s basis in its Public Shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the Public Shares will be treated as ordinary income. However, if the mark-to-market election is made by a Redeeming U.S. Holder after the beginning of the holding period for the PFIC stock, then the special PFIC taxation rules described above will apply to certain dispositions of, distributions on and other amounts taxable with respect to the Public Shares.

A Redeeming U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) Public Shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the Redeeming U.S. Holder, may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF or market-to-market election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department.

THE APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES IS EXTREMELY COMPLEX. U.S. HOLDERS WHO ARE CONSIDERING PARTICIPATING IN THE REDEMPTION AND/OR SELLING, TRANSFERRING OR OTHERWISE DISPOSING OF THEIR PUBLIC SHARES SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES (INCLUDING WHETHER A QEF ELECTION, A MARK-TO-MARKET ELECTION, OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ANY SUCH ELECTION) IN THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Expiration of Class 2 Warrant

If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Class 2 Warrants attached to redeemed Public Shares, which do not become exercisable unless the Company completes an initial business combination, will expire worthless. In such case, a U.S. Holder will generally recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the expired Class 2 Warrants. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Non-U.S. Holders

As used herein, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of a Public Share or public warrant who is not a U.S. Holder.

Redemption of Public Shares

Redemption of Public Shares Pursuant to An Exercise of Redemption Rights

A Non-U.S. Holder of Public Shares that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for all or a portion of its Public Shares generally will be treated in the same manner as a U.S. Holder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as described above under “U.S. Holders — Redemption of Public Shares — Redemption of Public Shares Pursuant to An Exercise of Redemption Rights.” However, notwithstanding such characterization, any Non-U.S. Holder who exercises its redemption rights generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized or dividends received as a result of the redemption of all or a portion of its Public Shares unless the gain or dividends is effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the non-U.S. shareholder).

Redemption of Public Shares in Connection with the Company’s Liquidation

A Non-U.S. Holder’s receipt of cash for its Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation is expected to be treated as a distribution to such holder in complete liquidation of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with such distribution treated as a payment received in exchange for such Public Shares under Section 331 of the Code. The consequences of such distribution to a Non-U.S. Holder are generally as described below under the section entitled “— Taxation of Redemption of Public Shares Treated as a Sale of Public Shares.” Notwithstanding such characterization, any Non-U.S. Holder who exercises its redemption rights generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized as a result of the redemption of its Public Shares unless the gain is effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the non-U.S. shareholder).

Expiration of Class 2 Warrant

If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the Class 2 Warrants attached to the redeemed Public Shares, which do not become exercisable unless AIMA completes an initial business combination, will expire worthless. In such case, a Non-U.S. Holder will generally recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the expired Class 2 Warrants. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them in respect of any loss recognized on the expiration of their Class 2 Warrants.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the Treasury regulations and administrative guidance promulgated thereunder (commonly referred to as “FATCA”) generally impose withholding at a rate of thirty percent (30%) on payments of dividends (including constructive dividends) on Public Shares to “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied by, or an exemption applies to, the payee (typically certified as to by the delivery of a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E). Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Under certain circumstances, a Non-U.S. Holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such withholding taxes, and a Non-U.S. Holder might be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return to claim such refunds or credits. Thirty percent (30%) withholding under FATCA was scheduled to apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of property that produces U.S.-source interest or dividends beginning on January 1, 2019, but on December 13, 2018, the IRS released proposed regulations that, if finalized in their proposed form, would eliminate the obligation to withhold on gross proceeds. Such proposed regulations also delayed withholding on certain other payments received from other foreign financial institutions that are allocable, as provided for under final Treasury Regulations, to payments of U.S.-source dividends, and other fixed or determinable annual or periodic income. Although these proposed Treasury Regulations are not final, taxpayers generally may rely on them until final Treasury Regulations are issued. However, there can be no assurance that final Treasury Regulations will provide the same exceptions from FATCA withholding as the proposed Treasury Regulations.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on their redemption of Public Shares.

ALL NON-U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF A REDEMPTION OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR PUBLIC SHARES PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OUR LIQUIDATION, INCLUDING ANY SPECIAL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, proceeds received from the exercise of redemption rights will be subject to backup withholding for a non-corporate U.S. Holder that:

• fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number;

• is notified by the IRS regarding a failure to report all interest or dividends required to be shown on his or her federal income tax returns; or

• in certain circumstances, fails to comply with applicable certification requirements.

A Non-U.S. Holder generally may eliminate the requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its non-U.S. status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption.

Table of Contents

Any amount withheld under these rules will be creditable against the U.S. Holder’s or Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability or refundable to the extent that it exceeds this liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS and other applicable requirements are met.

AS PREVIOUSLY NOTED ABOVE, THE FOREGOING DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY SHAREHOLDER. THE COMPANY ONCE AGAIN URGES YOU TO CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISER TO DETERMINE THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU (INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN INCOME OR OTHER TAX LAWS) OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

BUSINESS OF AIMA AND CERTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT AIMA

General

We are a blank check company incorporated as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands on July 26, 2021. AIMA was incorporated for the purpose of effecting merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

IPO and Private Placement

On April 28, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 8,050,000 Units, which included 1,050,000 Units issued upon the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, $0.0001 par value per share, one Class A Warrant, one-half of one Class B Warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, and the IPO generated gross proceeds of $80,500,000. The Class 1 Warrant and Class 2 Warrants have similar terms, except that the Class 1 Warrants separated and began separate trading on June 16, 2022 (the 52nd day following the effective date of the IPO). Holders have the option to continue to hold the Units or separate the Class 1 Warrants from the Units. Separation of the Class 1 Warrants from the Units will result in new units consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant (the “New Units”). Holders will need to have their brokers contact the Company’s transfer agent in order to separate the Units into Class 1 Warrants and New Units consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one Class 2 Warrant. Additionally, the Units and the New Units will automatically separate into their component parts and will not be traded after completion of the initial business combination.

On April 28, 2022, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we completed Private Placement of 492,000 Private Units to the Sponsor, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $4,920,000.

The proceeds of $ 82,110,000 ($10.20 per Unit) in the aggregate from the IPO and the Private Placement, were placed in the Trust Account established for the benefit of our public shareholders and the underwriter of the IPO with U.S. Bank acting as trustee.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of AIMA’s Ordinary Shares as of the date of this proxy statement with respect to the beneficial ownership of shares of AIMA’s Ordinary Shares, by:

• each person known by AIMA to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of AIMA’s outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares;

• each of AIMA’s executive officers and directors that beneficially owns shares of AIMA’s Ordinary Shares; and

• all AIMA’s executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if such person possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

In the table below, percentage ownership is based on 10,554,500 Ordinary Shares, consisting of (i) 8,542,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, (ii) 2,012,500 Class B Ordinary Shares, issued and outstanding as of the date of this proxy statement, and (iii) the record of beneficial ownership as indicated in the statements filed with the SEC pursuant section 13(d) or 13(g) as of the date of this proxy statement. On all matters to be voted upon, except for the election or removal of directors of the Board prior to the initial business combination, holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares vote together as a single class. Currently, all of the Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by them. The table below does not include the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants held by our Sponsor because these securities are not exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof.

HOUSEHOLDING INFORMATION

Unless AIMA has received contrary instructions, AIMA may send a single copy of this proxy statement to any household at which two or more shareholders reside if AIMA believes the shareholders are members of the same family.

6.4 Every share certificate sent in accordance with the Articles will be sent at the risk of the Member or other person entitled to the certificate. The Company will not be responsible for any share certificate lost or delayed in the course of delivery.

6.5 Share certificates shall be issued within the relevant time limit as prescribed by the Statute, if applicable, or as the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law may from time to time determine, whichever is shorter, after the allotment or, except in the case of a Share transfer which the Company is for the time being entitled to refuse to register and does not register, after lodgement of a Share transfer with the Company.

7.2 The instrument of transfer of any Share shall be in writing in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law or in any other form approved by the Directors and shall be executed by or on behalf of the transferor (and if the Directors so require, signed by or on behalf of the transferee) and may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee is a Clearing House or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the Directors may approve from time to time. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of a Share until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register of Members.

8 Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Shares

8.1 Subject to the provisions of the Statute, and, where applicable, the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law, the Company may issue Shares that are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Member or the Company. The redemption of such Shares, except Public Shares, shall be effected in such manner and upon such other terms as the Company may, by Special Resolution, determine before the issue of such Shares. With respect to redeeming or repurchasing the Shares:

(a) Members who hold Public Shares are entitled to request the redemption of such Shares in the circumstances described in the Business Combination Article hereof;

(b) Class B Shares held by the Sponsor shall be surrendered by the Sponsor for no consideration to the extent that the Over-Allotment Option is not exercised in full so that the Sponsor will own 20% of the Company’s issued Shares after the IPO (exclusive of any securities purchased in a private placement simultaneously with the IPO); and

(c) Public Shares shall be repurchased by way of tender offer in the circumstances set out in the Business Combination Article hereof.

8.2 Subject to the provisions of the Statute, and, where applicable, the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law, the Company may purchase its own Shares (including any redeemable Shares) in such manner and on such other terms as the Directors may agree with the relevant Member. For the avoidance of doubt, redemptions, repurchases and surrenders of Shares in the circumstances described in the Article above shall not require further approval of the Members.

8.3 The Company may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares in any manner permitted by the Statute, including out of capital.

8.4 The Directors may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid Share.

9 Treasury Shares

9.1 The Directors may, prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of any Share, determine that such Share shall be held as a Treasury Share.

9.2 The Directors may determine to cancel a Treasury Share or transfer a Treasury Share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation, for nil consideration).

10 Variation of Rights of Shares

10.1 Subject to Article 3.1, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued Shares of that class (other than with respect to a waiver of the provisions of the Class B Ordinary Share Conversion Article hereof, which as stated therein shall only require the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that class), or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt, the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply mutatis mutandis, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one third of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

10.2 For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.

10.3 The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith or Shares issued with preferred or other rights.

11 Commission on Sale of Shares

The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of that person subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly paid-up Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.

12 Non Recognition of Trusts

The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.

13 Lien on Shares

13.1 The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether fully paid-up or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or their estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien thereon. The Company’s lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

13.2 The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within 14 clear days after notice has been received or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

Annex A-9

Table of Contents

13.3 To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or their nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and they shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall their title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company’s power of sale under the Articles.

13.4 The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

14 Call on Shares

14.1 Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least 14 clear days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon them notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

14.2 A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.

14.3 The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

14.4 If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment), but the Directors may waive payment of the interest or expenses wholly or in part.

14.5 An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of the Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

14.6 The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.

14.7 The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by that Member, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.

14.8 No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a Dividend or other distribution payable in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.

15 Forfeiture of Shares

15.1 If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than 14 clear days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment. The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

15.2 If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

Annex A-10

Table of Contents

15.3 A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Directors may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.

15.4 A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by that person to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest at such rate as the Directors may determine, but that person’s liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by them in respect of those Shares.

15.5 A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or Officer that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom the Share is sold or otherwise disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall their title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

15.6 The provisions of the Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

16 Transmission of Shares

16.1 If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors (where they were a joint holder), or their legal personal representatives (where they were a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the deceased Member’s Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which the Member was a joint or sole holder.

16.2 Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect, by a notice in writing sent by that person to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated by them registered as the holder of such Share. If they elect to have another person registered as the holder of such Share they shall sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.

16.3 A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages to which they would be entitled if they were the holder of such Share. However, they shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered or to have some person nominated by them registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within 90 days of being received or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles), the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

17 Class B Ordinary Share Conversion

17.1 The rights attaching to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects, and the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall vote together as a single class on all matters (subject to the Variation of Rights of Shares Article and the Appointment and Removal of Directors Article hereof) with the exception that the holder of a Class B Share shall have the conversion rights referred to in this Article.

Annex A-11

Table of Contents

17.2 Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”) automatically on the day of the consummation of a Business Combination.

17.3 Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the consummation of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares at the time of the consummation of a Business Combination at a ratio for which the Class B Shares shall convert into Class A Shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the Class B Shares in issue agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, on an as-converted basis, in the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all Class A Shares and Class B Shares in issue upon completion of the IPO plus all Class A Shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any Equity-linked Securities or rights issued or deemed issued in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Shares or Equity-linked Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor or its Affiliates or any Director or Officer upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company.

17.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the Class B Shares then in issue consenting or agreeing separately as a separate class in the manner provided in the Variation of Rights of Shares Article hereof.

17.5 The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share subdivision, exchange, capitalisation, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or combination (by share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class A Shares in issue into a greater or lesser number of Shares occurring after the original filing of the Articles without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class B Shares in issue.

17.6 Each Class B Share shall convert into its pro rata number of Class A Shares pursuant to this Article. The pro rata share for each holder of Class B Shares will be determined as follows: each Class B Share shall convert into such number of Class A Shares as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Class A Shares into which all of the Class B Shares in issue shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Class B Shares in issue at the time of conversion.

17.7 References in this Article to “converted”, “conversion” or “exchange” shall mean the compulsory redemption without notice of Class B Shares of any Member and, on behalf of such Members, automatic application of such redemption proceeds in paying for such new Class A Shares into which the Class B Shares have been converted or exchanged at a price per Class B Share necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the Class A Shares to be issued as part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The Class A Shares to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered in the name of such Member or in such name as the Member may direct.

17.8 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any Class B Share convert into Class A Shares at a ratio that is less than one-for-one.

18 Amendments of Memorandum and Articles of Association and Alteration of Capital

18.2 All new Shares created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject to the same provisions of the Articles with reference to the payment of calls, liens, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the Shares in the original share capital.

20.2 The Company may, but shall not (unless required by the Statute) be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it. Any annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Directors shall appoint. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall be presented.

20.3 The Directors, the chief executive officer or the chairperson of the board of Directors may call general meetings, and, for the avoidance of doubt, Members shall not have the ability to call general meetings.

21 Notice of General Meetings

21.1 At least five clear days’ notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted at the general meeting and shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this Article has been given and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed:

22.1 No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present. The holders of a majority of the Shares being individuals present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative or proxy shall be a quorum.

22.2 A person may participate at a general meeting by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation by a person in a general meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting.

22.3 A resolution (including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by or on behalf of all of the Members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations or other non-natural persons, signed by their duly authorised representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held.

22.4 If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall be a quorum.

If there is no such chairperson, or if the person shall not be present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, or is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

22.6 If no Director is willing to act as chairperson or if no Director is present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

22.7 The chairperson may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed by the meeting) adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

22.8 When a general meeting is adjourned for 30 days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of an adjourned meeting.

22.9 If, prior to a Business Combination, a notice is issued in respect of a general meeting and the Directors, in their absolute discretion, consider that it is impractical or undesirable for any reason to hold that general meeting at the place, the day and the hour specified in the notice calling such general meeting, the Directors may postpone the general meeting to another place, day and/or hour provided that notice of the place, the day and the hour of the rearranged general meeting is promptly given to all Members. No business shall be transacted at any postponed meeting other than the business specified in the notice of the original meeting.

Annex A-14

Table of Contents

22.10When a general meeting is postponed for 30 days or more, notice of the postponed meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of a postponed meeting. All proxy forms submitted for the original general meeting shall remain valid for the postponed meeting. The Directors may postpone a general meeting which has already been postponed.

22.11A resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a poll.

22.12A poll shall be taken as the chairperson directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the general meeting at which the poll was demanded.

22.13A poll demanded on the election of a chairperson or on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken at such date, time and place as the chairperson of the general meeting directs, and any business other than that upon which a poll has been demanded or is contingent thereon may proceed pending the taking of the poll.

22.14In the case of an equality of votes the chairperson shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

23 Votes of Members

23.1 Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any Shares, including as set out at Article 29.4 and Article 47.2, every Member present in any such manner shall have one vote for every Share of which they are the holder.

23.2 In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy (or, in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members.

23.3 A Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may vote by their committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other person may vote by proxy.

23.6 Votes may be cast either personally or by proxy (or in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative or proxy). A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same proxy under one or more instruments to attend and vote at a meeting. Where a Member appoints more than one proxy the instrument of proxy shall specify the number of Shares in respect of which each proxy is entitled to exercise the related votes.

23.7 A Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of their Shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing the proxy, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed.

24 Proxies

24.1 The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed under the hand of the appointor or of their attorney duly authorised in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation or other non natural person, under the hand of its duly authorised representative.

Annex A-15

Table of Contents

24.2 The Directors may, in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, specify the manner by which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited and the place and the time (being not later than the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting to which the proxy relates) at which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited. In the absence of any such direction from the Directors in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited physically at the Registered Office not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting or adjourned meeting to commence at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote.

24.3 The chairperson may in any event at their discretion declare that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed to have been duly deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted, or which has not been declared to have been duly deposited by the chairperson, shall be invalid.

24.4 The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form (or such other form as the Directors may approve) and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to include the power to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.

24.5 Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or insanity of the principal or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, or the transfer of the Share in respect of which the proxy is given unless notice in writing of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer was received by the Company at the Registered Office before the commencement of the general meeting, or adjourned meeting at which it is sought to use the proxy.

25 Corporate Members

25.1 Any corporation or other non-natural person which is a Member may in accordance with its constitutional documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which they represent as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member.

25.2 If a Clearing House (or its nominee(s)), being a corporation, is a Member, it may authorise such persons as it sees fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of Members provided that the authorisation shall specify the number and class of Shares in respect of which each such representative is so authorised. Each person so authorised under the provisions of this Article shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of such Shares held by the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)).

27.2 The Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of Directors in each class shall be as nearly equal as possible. Upon the adoption of the Articles, the existing Directors shall by resolution classify themselves as Class I, Class II or Class III Directors. The Class I Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s first annual general meeting, the Class II Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s second annual general meeting and the Class III Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company’s third annual general meeting. Commencing at the Company’s first annual general meeting, and at each annual general meeting thereafter, Directors appointed to succeed those Directors whose terms expire shall be appointed for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual general meeting after their appointment. Except as the Statute or other Applicable Law may

Annex A-16

Table of Contents

otherwise require, in the interim between annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings called for the appointment of Directors and/or the removal of one or more Directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, additional Directors and any vacancies in the board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of Directors for cause, may be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Articles), or by the sole remaining Director. All Directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective terms of office and until their successors shall have been appointed and qualified. A Director appointed to fill a vacancy resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a Director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the Director whose death, resignation or removal shall have created such vacancy and until their successor shall have been appointed and qualified.

28 Powers of Directors

28.1 Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Memorandum and the Articles and to any directions given by Special Resolution, the business of the Company shall be managed by the Directors who may exercise all the powers of the Company. No alteration of the Memorandum or Articles and no such direction shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which would have been valid if that alteration had not been made or that direction had not been given. A duly convened meeting of Directors at which a quorum is present may exercise all powers exercisable by the Directors.

28.2 All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable or transferable instruments and all receipts for monies paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed as the case may be in such manner as the Directors shall determine by resolution.

28.3 The Directors on behalf of the Company may pay a gratuity or pension or allowance on retirement to any Director who has held any other salaried office or place of profit with the Company or to their surviving spouse, civil partner or dependants and may make contributions to any fund and pay premiums for the purchase or provision of any such gratuity, pension or allowance.

28.4 The Directors may exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and assets (present and future) and uncalled capital or any part thereof and to issue debentures, debenture stock, mortgages, bonds and other such securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

29 Appointment and Removal of Directors

29.1 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company may by Ordinary Resolution of the holders of the Class B Shares appoint any person to be a Director or may by Ordinary Resolution of the holders of the Class B Shares remove any Director. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, holders of Class A Shares shall have no right to vote on the appointment or removal of any Director.

29.2 The Directors may appoint any person to be a Director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional Director provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with the Articles as the maximum number of Directors.

29.3 After the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company may by Ordinary Resolution appoint any person to be a Director or may by Ordinary Resolution remove any Director.

29.4 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, Article 29.1 may only be amended by a Special Resolution passed by at least 90% of such Members (which shall include a simple majority of the holders of Class B Shares) as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting of which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a Special Resolution has been given, or by way of unanimous written resolution.

30 Vacation of Office of Director

The office of a Director shall be vacated if:

(a) the Director gives notice in writing to the Company that they resign the office of Director; or

Annex A-17

Table of Contents

(b) the Director is absent (for the avoidance of doubt, without being represented by proxy) from three consecutive meetings of the board of Directors without special leave of absence from the Directors, and the Directors pass a resolution that they have by reason of such absence vacated office; or

(d) the Director is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; or

(e) all of the other Directors (being not less than two in number) determine that the Director should be removed as a Director, either by a resolution passed by all of the other Directors at a meeting of the Directors duly convened and held in accordance with the Articles or by a resolution in writing signed by all of the other Directors.

31 Proceedings of Directors

31.1 The quorum for the transaction of the business of the Directors may be fixed by the Directors, and unless so fixed shall be a majority of the Directors then in office.

31.2 Subject to the provisions of the Articles, the Directors may regulate their proceedings as they think fit. Questions arising at any meeting shall be decided by a majority of votes. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairperson shall have a second or casting vote.

31.3 A person may participate in a meeting of the Directors or any committee of Directors by conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other at the same time. Participation by a person in a meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting. Unless otherwise determined by the Directors, the meeting shall be deemed to be held at the place where the chairperson is located at the start of the meeting.

31.4 A resolution in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all the Directors or all the members of a committee of the Directors or, in the case of a resolution in writing relating to the removal of any Director or the vacation of office by any Director, all of the Directors other than the Director who is the subject of such resolution shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors, or committee of Directors as the case may be, duly convened and held.

31.5 A Director may, or other Officer on the direction of a Director shall, call a meeting of the Directors by at least two days’ notice in writing to every Director which notice shall set forth the general nature of the business to be considered unless notice is waived by all the Directors either at, before or after the meeting is held. To any such notice of a meeting of the Directors all the provisions of the Articles relating to the giving of notices by the Company to the Members shall apply mutatis mutandis.

31.6 The continuing Directors (or a sole continuing Director, as the case may be) may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to the Articles as the necessary quorum of Directors the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to be equal to such fixed number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.

31.7 The Directors may elect a chairperson of their board and determine the period for which they are to hold office; but if no such chairperson is elected, or if at any meeting the chairperson is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

31.8 All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director, and/or that they or any of them were disqualified, and/or had vacated their office and/or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and/or not disqualified to be a Director and/or had not vacated their office and/or had been entitled to vote, as the case may be.

Annex A-18

Table of Contents

31.9 A Director may be represented at any meetings of the board of Directors by a proxy appointed in writing by that Director. The proxy shall count towards the quorum and the vote of the proxy shall for all purposes be deemed to be that of the appointing Director.

32 Presumption of Assent

A Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless their dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless they shall file their written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairperson or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a Director who voted in favour of such action.

33 Directors’ Interests

33.1 A Director may hold any other office or place of profit under the Company (other than the office of Auditor) in conjunction with their office of Director for such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Directors may determine.

33.2 A Director may act on their own or by, through or on behalf of their firm in a professional capacity for the Company and they or their firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if they were not a Director.

33.3 A Director may be or become a director or other officer of or otherwise interested in any company promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as a shareholder, a contracting party or otherwise, and no such Director shall be accountable to the Company for any remuneration or other benefits received by them as a director or officer of, or from their interest in, such other company.

33.4 No person shall be disqualified from the office of Director or prevented by such office from contracting with the Company, either as vendor, purchaser or otherwise, nor shall any such contract or any contract or transaction entered into by or on behalf of the Company in which any Director shall be in any way interested be or be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by or arising in connection with any such contract or transaction by reason of such Director holding office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established. A Director shall be at liberty to vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which they are interested provided that the nature of the interest of any Director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by them at or prior to its consideration and any vote thereon.

33.5 A general notice that a Director is a shareholder, director, officer or employee of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure for the purposes of voting on a resolution in respect of a contract or transaction in which they have an interest, and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

34 Minutes

The Directors shall cause minutes to be made in books kept for the purpose of recording all appointments of Officers made by the Directors, all proceedings at meetings of the Company or the holders of any class of Shares and of the Directors, and of committees of the Directors, including the names of the Directors present at each meeting.

35 Delegation of Directors’ Powers

35.1 The Directors may delegate any of their powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate, to any committee consisting of one or more Directors (including, without limitation, the Audit Committee). Any such delegation may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such delegation may be revoked or altered by the Directors. Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of a committee of Directors shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

Annex A-19

Table of Contents

35.2 The Directors may establish any committees, local boards or agencies or appoint any person to be a manager or agent for managing the affairs of the Company and may appoint any person to be a member of such committees, local boards or agencies.

Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of any such committee, local board or agency shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

35.3 The Directors may adopt formal written charters for committees. Each of these committees shall be empowered to do all things necessary to exercise the rights of such committee set forth in the Articles and shall have such powers as the Directors may delegate pursuant to the Articles and as required by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law. The Audit Committee, if established, shall consist of such number of Directors as the Directors shall from time to time determine (or such minimum number as may be required from time to time by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law). For so long as any class of Shares is listed on the Designated Stock Exchange, the Audit Committee shall be made up of such number of Independent Directors as is required from time to time by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law.

35.5 The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any company, firm, person or body of persons, whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or authorised signatory of the Company for such purpose and with such powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those vested in or exercisable by the Directors under the Articles) and for such period and subject to such conditions as they may think fit, and any such powers of attorney or other appointment may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience of persons dealing with any such attorneys or authorised signatories as the Directors may think fit and may also authorise any such attorney or authorised signatory to delegate all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions vested in them.

35.6 The Directors may appoint such Officers as they consider necessary on such terms, at such remuneration and to perform such duties, and subject to such provisions as to disqualification and removal as the Directors may think fit. Unless otherwise specified in the terms of their appointment an Officer may be removed by resolution of the Directors or Members. An Officer may vacate their office at any time if they give notice in writing to the Company that they resign their office.

36 No Minimum Shareholding

The Company in general meeting may fix a minimum shareholding required to be held by a Director, but unless and until such a shareholding qualification is fixed a Director is not required to hold Shares.

37 Remuneration of Directors

37.1 The remuneration to be paid to the Directors, if any, shall be such remuneration as the Directors shall determine, provided that no cash remuneration shall be paid to any Director by the Company prior to the consummation of a Business Combination. The Directors shall also, whether prior to or after the consummation of a Business Combination, be entitled to be paid all travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in connection with their attendance at meetings of Directors or committees of Directors, or general meetings of the Company, or separate meetings of the holders of any class of Shares or debentures of the Company, or otherwise in connection with the business of the Company or the discharge of their duties as a Director, or to receive a fixed allowance in respect thereof as may be determined by the Directors, or a combination partly of one such method and partly the other.

Annex A-20

Table of Contents

37.2 The Directors may by resolution approve additional remuneration to any Director for any services which in the opinion of the Directors go beyond that Director’s ordinary routine work as a Director. Any fees paid to a Director who is also counsel, attorney or solicitor to the Company, or otherwise serves it in a professional capacity shall be in addition to their remuneration as a Director.

38 Seal

38.1 The Company may, if the Directors so determine, have a Seal. The Seal shall only be used by the authority of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors authorised by the Directors. Every instrument to which the Seal has been affixed shall be signed by at least one person who shall be either a Director or some Officer or other person appointed by the Directors for the purpose.

38.2 The Company may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate Seal or Seals each of which shall be a facsimile of the common Seal of the Company and, if the Directors so determine, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be used.

38.3 A Director or Officer, representative or attorney of the Company may without further authority of the Directors affix the Seal over their signature alone to any document of the Company required to be authenticated by them under seal or to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere wheresoever.

39 Dividends, Distributions and Reserve

39.1 Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law.

39.2 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for Dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for Dividend accordingly.

39.3 The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) then payable by the Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

39.4 The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.

39.5 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how any costs involved are to be met.

39.6 The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.

39.7 Any Dividend, other distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing

Annex A-21

Table of Contents

direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

39.8 No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

39.9 Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the discretion of the Directors, be paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the Dividend or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

40 Capitalisation

The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid-up to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

41 Books of Account

41.1 The Directors shall cause proper books of account (including, where applicable, material underlying documentation including contracts and invoices) to be kept with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets and liabilities of the Company. Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they are prepared. Proper books shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

41.2 The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

41.3 The Directors may cause to be prepared and to be laid before the Company in general meeting profit and loss accounts, balance sheets, group accounts (if any) and such other reports and accounts as may be required by law.

42 Audit

42.1 The Directors may appoint an Auditor of the Company who shall hold office on such terms as the Directors determine.

42.2 Without prejudice to the freedom of the Directors to establish any other committee, if the Shares (or depositary receipts therefor) are listed or quoted on the Designated Stock Exchange, and if required by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law, the Directors shall establish and maintain an Audit Committee as a committee of the Directors and shall adopt a formal written Audit Committee charter

Annex A-22

Table of Contents

and review and assess the adequacy of the formal written charter on an annual basis. The composition and responsibilities of the Audit Committee shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law. The Audit Committee shall meet at least once every financial quarter, or more frequently as circumstances dictate.

42.3 If the Shares (or depositary receipts therefor) are listed or quoted on the Designated Stock Exchange, the Company shall conduct an appropriate review of all related party transactions on an ongoing basis and shall utilise the Audit Committee for the review and approval of potential conflicts of interest.

42.4 The remuneration of the Auditor shall be fixed by the Audit Committee (if one exists).

42.5 If the office of Auditor becomes vacant by resignation or death of the Auditor, or by their becoming incapable of acting by reason of illness or other disability at a time when their services are required, the Directors shall fill the vacancy and determine the remuneration of such Auditor.

42.6 Every Auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and Officers such information and explanation as may be necessary for the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

42.7 Auditors shall, if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an ordinary company, and at the next extraordinary general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an exempted company, and at any other time during their term of office, upon request of the Directors or any general meeting of the Members.

42.8 Any payment made to members of the Audit Committee (if one exists) shall require the review and approval of the Directors, with any Director interested in such payment abstaining from such review and approval.

42.9 The Audit Committee shall monitor compliance with the terms of the IPO and, if any non-compliance is identified, the Audit Committee shall be charged with the responsibility to take all action necessary to rectify such non-compliance or otherwise cause compliance with the terms of the IPO.

42.10At least one member of the Audit Committee shall be an “audit committee financial expert” as determined by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law. The “audit committee financial expert” shall have such past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or any other comparable experience or background which results in the individual’s financial sophistication.

43 Notices

43.1 Notices shall be in writing and may be given by the Company to any Member either personally or by sending it by courier, post, telex, fax or email to such Member or to such Member’s address as shown in the Register of Members (or where the notice is given by email by sending it to the email address provided by such Member). Notice may also be served by Electronic Communication in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or by placing it on the Company’s Website.

43.2 Where a notice is sent by:

(a) courier; service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by delivery of the notice to a courier company, and shall be deemed to have been received on the third day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays) following the day on which the notice was delivered to the courier;

(b) post; service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, pre paying and posting a letter containing the notice, and shall be deemed to have been received on the fifth day (not including Saturdays or Sundays or public holidays in the Cayman Islands) following the day on which the notice was posted;

Annex A-23

Table of Contents

(c) telex or fax; service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing and sending such notice and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was transmitted;

(d) email or other Electronic Communication; service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by transmitting the email to the email address provided by the intended recipient and shall be deemed to have been received on the same day that it was sent, and it shall not be necessary for the receipt of the email to be acknowledged by the recipient; and

(e) placing it on the Company’s Website; service of the notice shall be deemed to have been effected one hour after the notice or document was placed on the Company’s Website.

43.3 A notice may be given by the Company to the person or persons which the Company has been advised are entitled to a Share or Shares in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member in the same manner as other notices which are required to be given under the Articles and shall be addressed to them by name, or by the title of representatives of the deceased, or trustee of the bankrupt, or by any like description at the address supplied for that purpose by the persons claiming to be so entitled, or at the option of the Company by giving the notice in any manner in which the same might have been given if the death or bankruptcy had not occurred.

43.4 Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner authorised by the Articles to every holder of Shares carrying an entitlement to receive such notice on the record date for such meeting except that in the case of joint holders the notice shall be sufficient if given to the joint holder first named in the Register of Members and every person upon whom the ownership of a Share devolves because they are a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a Member where the Member but for their death or bankruptcy would be entitled to receive notice of the meeting, and no other person shall be entitled to receive notices of general meetings.

44 Winding Up

44.1 If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction of creditors’ claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding up:

(a) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them; or

(b) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.

44.2 If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and with the approval of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other approval required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like approval, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like approval, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon which there is a liability.

45 Indemnity and Insurance

45.1 Every Director and Officer (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company), together with every former Director and former Officer (each an “Indemnified Person”) shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company

Annex A-24

Table of Contents

for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

45.2 The Company shall advance to each Indemnified Person reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defence of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnified Person for which indemnity will or could be sought. In connection with any advance of any expenses hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall execute an undertaking to repay the advanced amount to the Company if it shall be determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall not be indemnified with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnified Person.

45.3 The Directors, on behalf of the Company, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any Director or Officer against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to the Company.

46 Financial Year

Unless the Directors otherwise prescribe, the financial year of the Company shall end on 31st December in each year and, following the year of incorporation, shall begin on 1st January in each year.

47 Transfer by Way of Continuation

47.1 If the Company is exempted as defined in the Statute, it shall, subject to the provisions of the Statute and with the approval of a Special Resolution, have the power to register by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and to be deregistered in the Cayman Islands. For the purposes of a Special Resolution to be passed pursuant to this Article, a holder of Class B Shares shall have ten votes for every Class B Share of which he is the holder and a holder of Class A Shares shall have one vote for every Class A Share of which he is the holder.

47.2 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, Article 47.1 may only be amended by a Special Resolution passed by at least 90% of such Members (which shall include a simple majority of the holders of Class B Shares) as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting of which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given, or by way of unanimous written resolution.

48 Mergers and Consolidations

The Company shall have the power to merge or consolidate with one or more other constituent companies (as defined in the Statute) upon such terms as the Directors may determine and (to the extent required by the Statute) with the approval of a Special Resolution.

49 Business Combination

49.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Articles, this Article shall apply during the period commencing upon the adoption of the Articles and terminating upon the first to occur of the consummation of a Business Combination and the full distribution of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In the event of a conflict between this Article and any other Articles, the provisions of this Article shall prevail.

49.2 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall either:

(a) submit such Business Combination to its Members for approval; or

(b) provide Members with the opportunity to have their Shares repurchased by means of a tender offer for a per-Share repurchase price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of such Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (net of taxes paid or payable, if any), divided by the

Table of Contents

number of then issued Public Shares, provided that the Company shall not repurchase Public Shares in an amount that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than US$5,000,001 prior to or upon consummation of such Business Combination. Such obligation to repurchase Shares is subject to the completion of the proposed Business Combination to which it relates.

49.3 If the Company initiates any tender offer in accordance with Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act in connection with a proposed Business Combination, it shall file tender offer documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to completing such Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about such Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. If, alternatively, the Company holds a general meeting to approve a proposed Business Combination, the Company will conduct any redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, and file proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

49.4 At a general meeting called for the purposes of approving a Business Combination pursuant to this Article, in the event that such Business Combination is approved by Ordinary Resolution, the Company shall be authorised to consummate such Business Combination, provided that the Company shall not consummate such Business Combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001 immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to, such Business Combination.

49.5 Any Member holding Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director may, at least two business days’ prior to any vote on a Business Combination, elect to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided for in the related proxy materials (the “IPO Redemption”), provided that no such Member acting together with any Affiliate of their or any other person with whom they are acting in concert or as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, or other group for the purposes of acquiring, holding, or disposing of Shares may exercise this redemption right with respect to more than 15% of the Public Shares in the aggregate without the prior consent of the Company and provided further that any beneficial holder of Public Shares on whose behalf a redemption right is being exercised must identify itself to the Company in connection with any redemption election in order to validly redeem such Public Shares. If so demanded, the Company shall pay any such redeeming Member, regardless of whether they are voting for or against such proposed Business Combination, a per-Share redemption price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (such interest shall be net of taxes payable) and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued Public Shares (such redemption price being referred to herein as the “Redemption Price”), but only in the event that the applicable proposed Business Combination is approved and in connection with its consummation. The Company shall not redeem Public Shares that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than US$5,000,001 following such redemptions (the “Redemption Limitation”).

49.6 A Member may not withdraw a Redemption Notice once submitted to the Company unless the Directors determine (in their sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part).

49.7 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Articles and the prospectus relating to the IPO, the Company shall consummate a Business Combination by July 28, 2023, provided however that if the board of Directors anticipates that the Company may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by July 28, 2023, the Company may, by resolution of the board of Directors if requested by the Sponsor, without the need for any further approval of the Members, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine (9) times, each by an additional one (1) month (for a total of up to 9 months until April 28, 2024) to complete a Business Combination, subject to the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees depositing additional funds into the Trust Account, for each one (1) month period, the lesser of (a) US$85,000 for all remaining Public Shares, and (b) an amount equal to US$0.04 for each remaining Public Share at the time of such deposit. In the event that

Annex A-26

Table of Contents

the Company does not consummate a Business Combination by July 28, 2023, or (in the case of nine (9) valid extensions of an additional one (1) month) April 28, 2024, or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles, the Company shall:

(a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;

(b) 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 the Company (less taxes payable and up to US$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members’ rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and

(c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve,

subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law.

49.8 In the event that any amendment is made to the Articles:

(a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination by July 28, 2023 (or, if the board of Directors has resolved to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination as described in Article 49.7, up to April 28, 2024), or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles; or

(b) with respect to any other provision relating to Members’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity, each holder of Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director shall be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon the approval or effectiveness 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 the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. The Company’s ability to provide such redemption in this Article is subject to the Redemption Limitation.

49.9 A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the event of an IPO Redemption, a repurchase of Shares by means of a tender offer pursuant to this Article, or a distribution of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In no other circumstance shall a holder of Public Shares have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account.

49.10After the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:

(a) receive funds from the Trust Account; or

(b) vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.

49.11A Director may vote in respect of a Business Combination in which such Director has a conflict of interest with respect to the evaluation of such Business Combination. Such Director must disclose such interest or conflict to the other Directors.

49.12As long as the securities of the Company are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Company must complete one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the Company’s signing a definitive agreement in connection with a Business Combination. A Business Combination must not be effectuated with another blank cheque company or a similar company with nominal operations.

Annex A-27

Table of Contents

49.13The Company may enter into a Business Combination with a target business that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer. In the event the Company seeks to consummate a Business Combination with a target that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer, the Company, or a committee of Independent Directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions that such a Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view.

50 Certain Tax Filings

Each Tax Filing Authorised Person and any such other person, acting alone, as any Director shall designate from time to time, are authorised to file tax forms SS-4, W-8 BEN, W-8 IMY, W-9 and 8832 and such other similar tax forms as are customary to file with any US state or federal governmental authorities or foreign governmental authorities in connection with the formation, activities and/or elections of the Company and such other tax forms as may be approved from time to time by any Director or Officer. The Company further ratifies and approves any such filing made by any Tax Filing Authorised Person or such other person prior to the date of the Articles.

51 Business Opportunities

51.1 To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no individual serving as a Director or an Officer (“Management”) shall have any duty, except and to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for Management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other. Except to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Management shall have no duty to communicate or offer any such corporate opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable to the Company or its Members for breach of any fiduciary duty as a Member, Director and/or Officer solely by reason of the fact that such party pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself or themselves, directs such corporate opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company.

51.2 Except as provided elsewhere in this Article, the Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both the Company and Management, about which a Director and/or Officer who is also a member of Management acquires knowledge.

51.3 To the extent a court might hold that the conduct of any activity related to a corporate opportunity that is renounced in this Article to be a breach of duty to the Company or its Members, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any and all claims and causes of action that the Company may have for such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the provisions of this Article apply equally to activities conducted in the future and that have been conducted in the past.

52 Exclusive Jurisdiction and Forum

52.1 Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the courts of the Cayman Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with the Memorandum, the Articles or otherwise related in any way to each Member’s shareholding in the Company, including but not limited to:

(a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company;

(b) any action asserting a claim of breach of any fiduciary or other duty owed by any current or former Director, Officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Members;

(d) any action asserting a claim against the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine (as such concept is recognised under the laws of the United States of America).

Annex A-28

Table of Contents

52.2 Each Member irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands over all such claims or disputes.

52.3 Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have, each Member acknowledges that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum and that accordingly the Company shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum.

52.4 Article 52.1, Article 52.2 and Article 52.3 shall not apply to any action or suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are, as a matter of the laws of the United States, the sole and exclusive forum for determination of such a claim.
