Item 1.01 Entry into a Material
Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed
in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Blue Safari Group Acquisition Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (“Blue
Safari” or the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 15,
2021, Blue Safari entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Original Merger Agreement”),
dated as of December 15, 2021, with (i) Bitdeer Technologies Group, an exempted company
with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“BTG”), (ii) Blue Safari Merge Limited,
a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG (“Merger Sub 1”), (iii) Blue Safari
Merge II Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG (“Merger Sub 2”),
(iv) Bitdeer Merge Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of BTG (“Merger Sub 3”), (v) Blue Safari Mini Corp., an exempted company incorporated with limited
liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blue Safari (“SPAC Sub”),
and (vi) Bitdeer Technologies Holding Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the
Cayman Islands (“Bitdeer”).
As previously disclosed
in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Blue Safari with the SEC on May 31, 2022, Blue Safari entered into a First Amendment
to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “First Amendment”, and the Original Merger Agreement as amended
by such First Amendment, the “First Amended Merger Agreement”) dated as of May 30, 2022 with BTG, Merger Sub 1,
Merger Sub 2, Merger Sub 3, SPAC Sub and Bitdeer, to amend the Original Merger Agreement.
As previously disclosed
in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Blue Safari with the SEC on December 2, 2022, Blue Safari entered into a Second Amendment
to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Second Amendment”, and the First Amended Merger Agreement
as amended by such Second Amendment, the “Second Amended Merger Agreement”) dated as of December 2, 2022 with

On

Amendment”, and the Second Amended Merger Agreement as amended by such Third Amendment, the “Third Amended Merger Agreement”)
with BTG, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2, Merger Sub 3, SPAC Sub and Bitdeer, to amend the Second Amended Merger Agreement. The Third Amendment
revises the definition of “Per Share Equity Value”
to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) US$1,180,000,000 by (ii) the total shares of BTG. Pursuant
to the Third Amendment, the parties thereto also agreed to remove the American Depository Share structure previously contemplated under
the Second Amended Merger Agreement and instead issue ordinary shares of BTG as considerations to be paid pursuant to the Third Amended
Merger Agreement.
The
foregoing description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, a copy
of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Item
8.01 Other Events.
As
previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on December 2, 2022, pursuant to
second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company, in
order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate the initial business combination, the Company must deposit US$0.15
for each public Class A ordinary share that has not been redeemed into the trust account for each three-month extension. Pursuant
to the Second Amendment, Bitdeer agreed to provide certain interest-free loans with an aggregate principal amount of US$2,584,141 to
the Company to fund any amount that may be required in order to further extend the period of time available for the Company to
consummate a business combination and for the Company’s working capital.
The Company has made a deposit of US$257,758.20
to the trust account and extended the date by which the Company has to complete a business combination from March 14, 2023 to June 14,
2023. Following such deposit, the amount of funds remaining in the trust account is approximately US$18.6 million.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements

statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are typically identified
by words such as “will,” “are expected to,” “is anticipated,” “estimated,” “believe,”
“intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “pro forma,” “outlook” or words of similar
meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed business combination (the
“Business Combination”) between Blue Safari and Bitdeer, including the expected transactions and the likelihood, timing
and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the proposed Business Combination. Such forward-looking statements are based upon
the current beliefs and expectations of Blue Safari’s and Bitdeer’s management and are inherently subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond Blue Safari’s
or Bitdeer’s control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking
statements.
Nothing in this Current Report should be regarded
as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated
results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date they are made. Except as may be required by law, neither Blue Safari nor Bitdeer undertakes any duty to update
these forward-looking statements.
Additional Information and Where to Find
It
In
connection with the proposed Business Combination, Blue Safari intends to file relevant materials with the SEC, including a proxy statement
which will be part of a registration statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) to register securities
to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, and will file other documents regarding the proposed Business Combination with
the SEC. Blue Safari’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus
and the amendments thereto and the definitive proxy statement to be filed in connection with the proposed Business Combination, as these
materials will contain important information about Bitdeer, Blue Safari, and the proposed Business Combination. Promptly after the Registration
Statement is declared effective by the SEC, Blue Safari will mail the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and a proxy card to each shareholder
entitled to vote at the meeting relating to the approval of the Business Combination and other proposals set forth in the Registration
Statement. Before making any voting or investment decision, investors and shareholders of Blue Safari are urged to carefully read the
entire Registration Statement and the proxy statement/prospectus to be included therein, when they become available, and any other relevant
documents filed with the SEC, as well as any amendments or supplements thereto in relation to the proposed Business Combination, because
they will contain important information about the proposed Business Combination. The documents filed by Blue Safari and other parties
with the SEC may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
This communication does not constitute an offer
to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale
of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under
the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
Participants in the Solicitation
Blue Safari and their directors and executive
officers may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from Blue Safari’s shareholders with respect to the Business
Combination. A list of the names of those directors and executive officers and a description of their interests in the proposed transactions
will be included in the Registration Statement for the Business Combination when available at www.sec.gov. Information about Blue Safari’s
directors and executive officers and their ownership of Blue Safari’s securities is set forth in Blue Safari’s annual report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Other information regarding the interests of the participants in the proxy
solicitation will be included in the Registration Statement pertaining to the Business Combination when it becomes available. These documents
