Capitalized terms not defined in this current report shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Proxy Statement.

 

The Company announces that to the extent that the Extension Amendment Proposal as set forth in the Proxy Statement is approved at the Meeting, in addition to Extension Contribution set forth in the Proxy Statement (being $0.025 for each of the Company’s Class A ordinary share not elected to be redeemed immediately after the Extraordinary General Meeting, for each Extension Period), the Company commits to pay (a) for each Extension Period from October 27, 2024 (exclusive) to January 27, 2025, $0.005 for each of the Company’s Class A ordinary share not elected to be redeemed immediately after the Extraordinary General Meeting; and (b) for each Extension Period from January 27, 2025 (exclusive) to April 27, 2025, $0.025 for each of the Company’s Class A ordinary share not elected to be redeemed immediately after the Extraordinary General Meeting.

 

In aggregate, the Company is committed to pay (a) $0.03 for each of the Company’s Class A ordinary share not elected to be redeemed immediately after the Extraordinary General Meeting for each Extension Period from October 27, 2024 (exclusive) to January 27, 2025; and (b) $0.05 for each of the Company’s Class A ordinary share not elected to be redeemed immediately after the Extraordinary General Meeting for each Extension Period from January 27, 2025 (exclusive) to April 27, 2025.
