- Following the purchase, the prior sponsor’s board/officers resigned and the New Sponsor designated a new board and management team.
- A new Insider Letter and related waivers were implemented; the prior Insider Letter was terminated.

- Class B Founder Shares convert to Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at closing of the initial Business Combination (subject to adjustments).

Listing and timing
- The company’s securities (Units, Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants) are listed on Nasdaq.
- The company intends to complete a Business Combination within a 24-month Completion Window (extendable with shareholder approval). Extensions are subject to shareholder approvals and redemption rights.
Operations and personnel
- Officers: two officers; no full-time employees prior to completing a Business Combination.
- Executive offices: 1012 Springfield Avenue, Mountainside, New Jersey 07092.
- Administrative Services Agreement with the prior sponsor was terminated on November 25, 2025.
Post-transaction considerations
- After a Business Combination, the combined company may own 50% or more of a target’s voting securities (or otherwise obtain a controlling interest) to avoid treatment as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
- The company may issue additional equity, debt or equity-linked securities in connection with a Business Combination, which could dilute public shares or change leverage.
- The company may use PIPE financings or other backstop arrangements to fund a Business Combination, if needed.
- The company may seek to extend the Completion Window; related redemption mechanics apply for Public Shares. Warrants generally expire worthless if a Business Combination is not completed within the Completion Window.
Business model summary
- The company’s core activity is identifying and negotiating a Business Combination using proceeds from the IPO and Private Placement Units.
- The plan is to acquire a target after which the combined company would operate in the biotech, healthcare or technology sectors (or related areas).
- The SPAC structure provides a faster path to a public listing for a target company upon completion of a Business Combination.
