NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

 

  a. Nasdaq Deficiency Note

 

On February 20, 2024, the Company received a notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC indicating that unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (hereafter - the Panel), trading of the Company’s securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market would be suspended at the opening of business on February 29, 2024, due to the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement.

 

The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel to request sufficient time to complete its previously disclosed proposed business combination with Silexion. The hearing request has resulted in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing, which is scheduled to take place on April 23, 2024.

 

  b. Proposed Business Combination

 

On February 21, 2024, the Company, together with its wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary (hereafter – the Merger Sub), entered into a business combination agreement (hereafter - the BCA) with Silexion Therapeutics Ltd., an Israeli company (hereafter - Silexion).

 

The Business Combination is expected to close in the third quarter of 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions under the BCA, including the approval of the Business Combination by Silexion’s and the Company’s shareholders, and Nasdaq approval of the initial listing of the combined company’s securities.

 

Headquartered in Israel, Silexion is a clinical-stage, oncology-focused biotechnology company that develops innovative treatments for unsatisfactorily treated solid tumor cancers which have a mutated KRAS oncogene. The Business Combination values Silexion at a pre-transaction equity value of $62.5 million, based on a $10 price per share.

 

The BCA and the Business Combination have been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of the Company and Silexion.
