In
order to fund working
capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain
of our officers and
directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans, as may be required. If
we complete a Business
Combination, we will repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close,
we may use a portion of
the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from
our Trust Account would be
used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into warrants of
the post-Business Combination
entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.
Other than as set forth above,
the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist
with respect to such Working
Capital Loans. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we did not have any borrowings under any Working

Our officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5), from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If We are unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.

address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. In

The
preparation of the unaudited
condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in thethis Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements”
in conformity
with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
income and
expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, in our unaudited condensed financial statements. These
accounting estimates
require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. Management
bases its estimates
on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form
the basis for making judgments, and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. To the extent actual experience
differs from the
assumptions used, our unaudited condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in thethis Report under Item 1.
“Financial
Statements” could be materially affected. We believe that the following accounting policies involve a higher degree
of judgment
and complexity. Using a valuation, the Company estimated the fair value of the Public Warrants as of the Initial Public Offering.
We did
not have any other critical accounting estimates as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026.
Net
Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
We
comply with accounting
and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. We have two classes of shares,
Class A Ordinary Shares
and Class B Ordinary Shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income
per Ordinary Share is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period. Accretion
associated with the redeemable
Ordinary Shares is excluded from income per Ordinary Share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Management
does not believe
that there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, which if currently adopted, would
have a material
effect effecton the unaudited condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in thethis Report under Item 1. “Financial
Statements”.
