Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, pursuant to the Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreements, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor and Cantor, with each Private Placement Warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $6,000,000 in the aggregate (irrespective of the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option). Of those 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor purchased 4,000,000 Private Placement Warrants and Cantor purchased 2,000,000 Private Placement Warrants. The Private Placement Warrants (and underlying securities) are identical to the Public Warrants, except as otherwise disclosed in the IPO Registration Statement. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Use of Proceeds

On July 11, 2024, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Public Share, and one-half of one Public Warrant, with each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share.

The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $$230,000,000. Cantor acted as the sole book runner and representative of the underwriters. On July 11, 2024, simultaneously with the consummation of our Initial Public Offering, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrants, to our Sponsor and Cantor, generating gross proceeds of $6,000,000. Of those 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor purchased 4,000,000 Private Placement Warrants and Cantor purchased 2,000,000 Private Placement Warrants.

Following the closing of our Initial Public Offering, a total of $230,000,000 comprised of the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering (which amount includes $10,950,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount) and the Private Placement, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental, acting as trustee. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. The specific investments in our Trust Account may change from time to time.

Other than as described above, there has been no material change in the planned use of the proceeds from our Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement as is described in our final prospectus related to our Initial Public Offering. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our Initial Public Offering and Private Placement as described in the IPO Registration Statement

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

On March 6, 2024, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share, to cover certain costs in consideration for 5,750,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. Up to 750,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering. In May 2024, we effected a share dividend of 0.33 shares for each Class B Ordinary Share outstanding, resulting in the Initial Shareholders holding an aggregate of 7,666,667 Founder Shares (up to 1,000,000 shares of which were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised). On July 11, 2024, as a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, no Founder Shares were forfeited and all remaining Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
