At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, the effect of the Redomestication Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Redomestication Merger Certificate, the Plan of Redomestication Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL and Cayman Law.

(a) Conversion of Parent Common Stock.

(i) At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, every share of Parent Common Stock (other than those described in Section 2.11 below)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time shall be converted automatically into one Purchaser Class A Ordinary Share. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, all shares of Parent Common Stock shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be converted or canceled (as the case may be) and shall cease to exist. The holders of issued Parent Common Stock immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, as evidenced by the register of stockholders of the Parent (the “Stockholder Register”), shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Parent Common Stock, except as provided herein or by Law. From and after the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, each certificate or book entry position that evidenced Parent Common Stock immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger shall entitle the holder only to the applicable number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares into which such certificate or book entry position is convertible according to this Section 2.6(a). Upon surrender of each certificate (if any) previously evidencing Parent Common Stock, such certificate shall be exchanged for a certificate representing the same number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares in accordance with Section 2.7.

(ii) Each certificate (if any) formerly representing Parent Common Stock (other than those described in Section 2.11 below) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the same number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares. Each certificate formerly representing Parent Common Stock (“Parent Dissenting Shares”) owned by holders of Parent Common Stock who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights pursuant to Delaware Law (“Parent Dissenting Shareholders”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the applicable payments set forth in Section 2.11, unless and until such Parent Dissenting Shareholder effectively withdraws its demand for, or loses its rights to, appraisal rights pursuant to Delaware Law with respect to any Parent Dissenting Shares.

(b) Parent Units. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, every issued and outstanding Parent Unit shall be separated automatically into each’s individual components of one share of Parent Common Stock and one-tenth (1/10) of one Parent Right, and all Parent Units shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. Each individually separated component shall, at the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, be converted into One Purchaser Class A Ordinary Share, and/or one-tenth (1/10) of Purchaser Right, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 2.6(a) and Section 2.6(c), respectively. The holders of certificates previously evidencing Parent Units outstanding immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Parent Units, except as provided herein or by Law. Upon surrender of each certificate (if any) previously evidencing Parent Units, such certificate shall be exchanged for certificates representing the applicable number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares.

(c) Parent Rights. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, every issued and outstanding Parent Right immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time shall be converted automatically into one Purchaser Right. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, all Parent Rights shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be converted and shall cease to exist. The holders of certificates previously evidencing Parent Rights outstanding immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Parent Rights, except as provided herein or by Law. At the Closing, all Purchaser Rights shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. The holders of Purchaser Rights instead will receive one Purchaser Class A Ordinary Share in exchange for the cancellation of each Purchaser Right; provided that no fractional shares will be issued and all fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Upon surrender of each certificate (if any) previously evidencing Parent Rights, such certificate shall be exchanged for a certificate representing the applicable number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares.

(d) Cancellation of Parent Common Stock Owned by Parent. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, if there are any shares of Parent Common Stock that are owned by the Parent as treasury shares or any shares of Parent Common Stock owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, such shares shall be canceled without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(e) Cancellation of Purchaser Ordinary Share Owned by Parent. At the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, every issued and outstanding share(s) of Purchaser owned by the Parent as set forth in Section 6.6(b), being the only issued and outstanding share(s) in Purchaser immediately prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, shall be canceled without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(f) Transfers of Ownership. If any securities of Purchaser are to be issued in a name other than that in which the certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange will have paid to Purchaser or any agent designated by it any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of securities of Purchaser in any name other than that of the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Purchaser or any agent designated by it that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(g) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.6, none of the Redomestication Surviving Corporation, Parent or any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

2.7 Surrender of Securities. All Purchaser Securities issued in exchange of Parent Securities in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Parent Securities, provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of Parent Securities shall also apply to the Purchaser Securities so issued in exchange.

2.8 Lost Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any certificates of Parent Securities shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Purchaser shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such securities, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.7; provided, however, that Redomestication Surviving Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Redomestication Surviving Corporation with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.9 U.S. Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal income tax purposes (and for purposes of any applicable state or local income Tax Law that follows the US federal income tax treatment of the Merger), each of the parties intends that the Redomestication Merger qualifies for the Redomestication Intended Tax Treatment (the “Redomestication Intended Tax Treatment”). The Parent and the Purchaser hereby (i) adopt, and the Company acknowledges, this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” with respect to the Redomestication Merger within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the United States Treasury Regulations, (ii) agree to file and retain such information as shall be required under Section 1.368-3 of the United States Treasury Regulations, and (iii) agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with the Redomestication Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority in connection with an audit. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Redomestication Merger for the Redomestication Intended Tax Treatment or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Redomestication Merger Effective Time has or may have on any such reorganization status. Each of the parties acknowledge and agree that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Redomestication Merger is determined not to qualify for the Redomestication Intended Tax Treatment.

2.10 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Redomestication Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Redomestication Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Parent and the Purchaser, the officers and directors of the Parent and the Purchaser are fully authorized in the name of their respective companies or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

2.11 Dissenter’s Rights. No person who has validly exercised their appraisal rights pursuant to Delaware Law shall be entitled to receive the equivalent number of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares with respect to the Parent Dissenting Shares owned by such Parent Dissenting Shareholder unless and until such Parent Dissenting Shareholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights under the Delaware Law. Each Parent Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure set forth in Delaware Law with respect to the Parent Dissenting Shares owned by such Parent Dissenting Shareholder. The Parent shall give the Purchaser (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Laws that are received by the Parent relating to any Parent Dissenting Shareholder’s rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the Delaware Law.

The Proxy Statement shall include proxy materials for the purpose of soliciting proxies from Parent shareholders to vote, at an extraordinary general meeting of Parent shareholders to be called and held for such purpose (the “Parent Special Meeting”), in favor of resolutions approving (i) the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Additional Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the Redomestication Merger and the Acquisition Merger, by the holders of Parent Common Stock in accordance with the Parent’s Organizational Documents, the DGCL and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, and (ii) such other matters as the Company Group and Parent shall hereafter mutually determine to be necessary or appropriate in order to effect the Redomestication Merger, the Acquisition Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the approvals described in foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Parent Stockholder Approval Matters”), and (iv) the adjournment of the Parent Special Meeting, if necessary or desirable in the reasonable determination of Parent. If on the date for which the Parent Special Meeting is scheduled, Parent has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares to obtain the Required Parent Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 10.1(f)), whether or not a quorum is present, Parent may make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Parent Special Meeting.

The Parent shall provide such information concerning Parent and its equity holders, officers, directors, employees, assets, Liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise), business and operations that may be required or appropriate for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or in any amendments or supplements thereto, which information provided by the Parent shall be true and correct and not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made not materially misleading.

Each party shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Registration Statement (and other related materials) if and to the extent that such information is determined to have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Laws. Purchaser shall amend or supplement the Registration Statement and cause the Registration Statement, as so amended or supplemented, to be filed with the SEC and the Parent shall cause the Proxy Statement to be disseminated to Parent’s shareholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable Laws and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and Parent’s Organizational Documents.

(c) As soon as practicable following the Registration Statement “clearing” comments from the SEC and being declared effective by the SEC, Parent shall distribute the Proxy Statement to Parent’s shareholders, and, pursuant thereto, shall call the Parent Special Meeting in accordance with the DGCL for a date no later than forty-five (45) days following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

9.6 Confidentiality.

Except as necessary to complete the Proxy Statement and Registration Statement, the Company Group, on the one hand, and the Purchaser Parties, on the other hand, shall hold and shall cause their respective representatives to hold in strict confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, all documents and information concerning the other party furnished to it by such other party or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (a) previously known by the party to which it was furnished, (b) in the public domain through no fault of such party or (c) later lawfully acquired from other sources, which source is not the agent of the other party, by the party to which it was furnished), and each party shall not release or disclose such information to any other person, except its representatives in connection with this Agreement. In the event that any party believes that it is required to disclose any such confidential information pursuant to applicable Laws, such party shall give timely written notice to the other parties so that such parties may have an opportunity to obtain a protective order or other appropriate relief. Each party shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations to hold confidential information concerning or supplied by the other parties if it exercises the same care as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar information. The parties acknowledge that some previously confidential information will be required to be disclosed in the Proxy Statement.

(b) The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and, unless the context requires otherwise, “party” means a party signatory hereto.

(c) Any use of the singular or plural, or the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, includes the others, unless the context otherwise requires; “including” means “including without limitation;” “or” means “and/or;” “any” means “any one, more than one, or all;” and, unless otherwise specified, any financial or accounting term has the meaning of the term under United States generally accepted accounting principles as consistently applied heretofore by the Company Group.

(d) Unless otherwise specified, any reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), instrument, or other document includes all schedules, exhibits, or other attachments referred to therein, and any reference to a statute or other law includes any rule, regulation, ordinance, or the like promulgated thereunder, in each case, as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time. Any reference to a numbered schedule means the same-numbered section of the disclosure schedule.

(e) If any action is required to be taken or notice is required to be given within a specified number of days following a specific date or event, the day of such date or event is not counted in determining the last day for such action or notice.

14.13 Third Party Beneficiaries.

14.14 Waiver. Reference is made to the final IPO prospectus of the Parent, dated October 5, 2023 (the “Prospectus”). The Company Group and the Principal Shareholders’ Representative have read the Prospectus and understand that the Parent has established the Trust Account for the benefit of the public shareholders of the Parent and the underwriters of the IPO pursuant to the Investment Management Trust Agreement and that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Parent may disburse monies from the Trust Account only for the purposes set forth in the Investment Management Trust Agreement. For and in consideration of the Parent agreeing to enter into this Agreement, the Company and the Principal Shareholders each hereby agree that he, she or it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and hereby agrees that he, she or it will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Purchaser.
