Purchase Agreement

As previously disclosed, on September 8, 2023, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the Company’s initial sponsor, APx Cap Sponsor Group I, LLC (the “APX

Sponsor”) and Templar, LLC and its designees (the “Templar Sponsor”), whereby the APX Sponsor transferred to the Templar Sponsor 3,342,188 of the Company’s class B ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value (the “Founder Shares”) and 6,936,250 private placement warrants (the “Placement Warrants”) purchased at the time of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) pursuant to a Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated December 6, 2021. The APX Sponsor retained 970,312 Founder Shares and 3,342,188 Placement Warrants. The transfer of Founder Shares and Placement Warrants to the Templar Sponsor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is referred to as the “Transfer.” The Transfer, all other transactions contemplated by the agreements executed in connection with the Transfer (including the transactions contemplated therein) and the Management Change and Board Change (each as defined below) are referred to as the “Sponsor Alliance.”

In connection with the Sponsor Alliance, the Company, its officers and directors, the APX Sponsor and the Templar Sponsor entered into additional agreements whereby: (a) the Templar Sponsor signed a joinder agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) to become a party to the Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) and the Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”), both dated December 6, 2021 and entered into in connection with the IPO, among the Company, the APX Sponsor and certain other shareholders of the Company; and (b) the Letter Agreement was amended by the parties thereto to allow for the Transfer with respect to the Founder Shares (the “Letter Agreement Amendment”). In addition, at the Closing, the Company’s IPO underwriters waived their respective entitlement to the payment of any Deferred Discount (as such term is defined therein) to be paid under the terms of Section 2(c) and Section 5(bb) of the Underwriting Agreement dated December 6, 2021.

As part of the Sponsor Alliance, Kyle Bransfield replaced Daniel Braatz as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, effective upon the Closing, with Daniel Braatz remaining as a director on the Board (the “Management Change”). In addition, in connection with the Sponsor Alliance, the Board has approved a change in the Board (the “Board Change”) as follows: Angel Losada Moreno, David Proman and Diego Dayenoff shall tender their resignations as directors and shall be replaced by Fara Remtulla, Daniel Mudd and Thomas P.M. Barry (collectively, the “New Directors”), to be effective upon the later of the expiration of all applicable waiting periods under Section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act (the “Effective Date”); provided that the resignations of David Proman and Diego Dayenoff and the appointment of Daniel Mudd became effective as of March 8, 2024 .

Based on 9,910,124 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class A Ordinary Shares”) and no Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class B Ordinary Shares”) outstanding on the date of this Information Statement, following consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Templar Sponsor holds 3,342,188 Class A Ordinary Shares, or 33.7% of the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares; and the APX Sponsor holds 970,312 Class A Ordinary Shares, or 9.8% of the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares.

There is no family relationship or other relationship between the Company and the Templar Sponsor.

As a result of the foregoing, on the Effective Date, a majority of the Board will have been replaced by the New Directors. Please read this information statement carefully. It contains certain biographical and other information concerning the current and new officers and directors.

All information in relation to the Templar Sponsor and the New Directors included in this Information Statement is included therein in reliance on representations made to the Company by the Templar Sponsor.

THE CHANGE IN THE COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DISCLOSED IN THIS SCHEDULE 14f-1 FILING WILL RESULT IN A CHANGE IN A MAJORITY OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY.

The New Directors, as described under “Directors and Executive Officers — Appointments to the Board of Directors as Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement”, will replace certain of the current directors of the Company. This change is expected to occur on the Effective Date.

To the Company’s knowledge, based on representations from the Templar Sponsor, during the past 10 years, none of the New Directors have been:

Prior to his role at Fir Tree, Mr. Proman was a Portfolio Manager and Analyst at Kore Advisors, a fixed income investment manager.

We believe Mr. Proman’s experience with growth-oriented companies across various industries, as well as his extensive experience serving in a number of executive positions and as a board member of other companies, makes him well qualified to serve as a director.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Our management is responsible for assessing and managing risks in our business, subject to oversight by the Board. The Board is responsible for overseeing the Company’s processes for assessing and managing risk. Each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with input as appropriate from other appropriate management members, report and provide relevant information directly to either the Board and/or the Audit Committee on various types of identified material financial, reputational, legal, operational and business risks to which the Company is or may be subject, as well as mitigation strategies for relevant risks. The Board focuses on our general risk oversight strategy and understanding the ways in which management proactively manages risks and ensures that appropriate risk mitigation strategies are implemented by management. Various committees of the Board assist the Board in this oversight responsibility in their respective areas of responsibility as described in this Information Statement.

Director Independence

Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our Board be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person who, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). Upon the Effective Date, we will have three “independent directors” as defined in Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. The Board has determined that Fara Remtulla, Daniel Mudd and Thomas P.M. Barry are “independent directors” as defined in Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board has three standing committees: the audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees.

Each of our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee currently are and, with effect from the Effective Date, will be, composed solely of independent directors. Subject to phase-in rules, the rules of Nasdaq and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and the rules of Nasdaq require that the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors. Each committee operates under a charter that was approved by the Board and has the composition and responsibilities described below. The charter of each committee is available on our website.

Audit Committee

We have established an audit committee of the Board. Upon their appointments, Fara Remtulla, Daniel Mudd and Thomas P.M. Barry will serve as the members and Mr. Mudd will serve as chair of the audit committee. The members of our audit committee are “independent” under applicable Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules.

Each of Fara Remtulla, Daniel Mudd and Thomas P.M. Barry are financially literate and our Board has determined that Daniel Mudd qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules and has accounting or related financial management expertise.

We have adopted an audit committee charter, which details the purpose and principal functions of the audit committee, including:

•

assisting board oversight of (1) the integrity of our financial statements, (2) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm; the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;

setting clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations; obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing (1) the independent auditor’s internal quality-control procedures and (2) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the independent registered public accounting firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues;

Barry will serve as the members and Mr. Barry will serve as chair of the compensation committee. The members of our compensation committee are “independent” under applicable Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules.

approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;

•

producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

•

reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, independent legal counsel or other adviser and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

We have established a nominating and corporate governance committee of the Board. Upon their appointments, Fara Remtulla, Daniel Mudd and Thomas P.M. Barry will serve as the members and Ms. Remtulla will serve as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The members of our nominating and corporate governance committee are “independent” under applicable Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules.

We have adopted a nominating and corporate governance committee charter, which details the purpose and responsibilities of the nominating and corporate governance committee, including:

•

identifying, screening and reviewing individuals qualified to serve as directors, consistent with criteria approved by the board, and recommending to the board of directors candidates for nomination for appointment at the annual general meeting or to fill vacancies on the board of directors;

•

developing and recommending to the board of directors and overseeing implementation of our corporate governance guidelines;

•

coordinating and overseeing the annual self-evaluation of the board of directors, its committees, individual directors and management in the governance of the company; and

•

reviewing on a regular basis our overall corporate governance and recommending improvements as and when necessary.

The charter also provides that the nominating and corporate governance committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of, and terminate, any search firm to be used to identify director candidates, and is directly responsible for approving the search firm’s fees and other retention terms.

We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the Board considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our shareholders.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics and business conduct (our “code of ethics”) applicable to our directors, officers and employees. We have posted a copy of our code of ethics and the charters of our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee on our website. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this Information Statement. You are able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the code of ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our code of ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Shareholder Communications

Following the change of control of the Board, our shareholders can send communications to the new Board by writing to the Templar Sponsor.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company’s Ordinary Shares by (i) each shareholder known by the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, (ii) by the current directors and executive officers of the Company, and (iii) each of the Company’s officers and directors that is expected to hold such offices with effect from the Director and Officer Handover Date.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by them.

(1)

APx Cap Sponsor Group I, LLC, our co-sponsor, is the record holder of such shares, is controlled by its managing member, APx Cap Holdings I, LLC. APx Cap Holdings I, LLC’s board of directors consists of three members. Each director of APx Cap Holdings I, LLC has one vote, and the approval of the members of the board of directors is required to approve an action of APx Cap Holdings I, LLC. Under the so-called “rule of three,” if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity’s securities are made by two or more individuals, and a voting and dispositive decision requires the approval of a majority of those individuals, then none of the individuals is deemed a beneficial owner of the entity’s securities. This is the situation with regard to APx Cap Holdings I, LLC. Based upon the foregoing analysis, no individual manager of APx Cap Holdings I, LLC exercises voting or dispositive control over any of the securities held by APx Cap Holdings I, LLC even those in which he directly holds a pecuniary interest. Accordingly, none of them will be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of such shares and, for the avoidance of doubt, each expressly

disclaims any such beneficial interest to the extent of any pecuniary interest he may have therein, directly or indirectly. The business address of each of APx Cap and the individuals listed herein is Juan Salvador Agraz 65, Contadero, Cuajimalpa de Morelos, 05370, Mexico City, Mexico.

(2)

Templar, LLC (“Templar”), our co-sponsor, is the record holder of such shares. Kyle Bransfield is the managing member of Templar, and as such, has voting and investment discretion with respect to the ordinary shares held of record by Templar and may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the ordinary shares held by Templar. Mr. Bransfield disclaims any beneficial ownership of the reported shares other than to the extent of any pecuniary interest he may have therein, directly or indirectly. The principal business address of Templar is 714 Westview Avenue, Nashville, Tennessee 37205.

(3)	Does not include any shares indirectly owned as a result of a direct or indirect membership interest in the Sponsor.

(4)	Shares beneficially owned are based on Scheduled 13G filed with the SEC on February 13, 2024 by Mizuho Financial Group, Inc, which information has not been independently confirmed. The principal business address of Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. is 1–5–5, Otemachi, Chiyoda–ku, Tokyo 100–8176, Japan.

(5)

The principal business address of Wolverine is Juan Salvador Agraz 65, Contadero, Cuajimalpa de Morelos 05370 Mexico City, Mexico.

Change in Control

Except for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, we do not currently have any arrangements which, if consummated, may result in a change of control of the Company.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of Class A Ordinary Shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our Class A Ordinary Shares are required by regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the best of our knowledge (based upon a review of such forms), we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2023 there were no delinquent filers with the following exceptions: (i) each of APX Sponsor, David Proman and Angel Moreno failed to timely file a Form 4 with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (ii) Kyle Bransfield failed to (i) timely file his Form 3 with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (ii) timely file a Form 4 relating to the conversion of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

None of our officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on the date that our securities are first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we were required to pay APX Sponsor or an affiliate thereof up to $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support services provided to members of our management team and other expenses and obligations of APX Sponsor. In connection with the Sponsor Alliance, this agreement has been terminated.

In addition, our co-sponsors, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our co-sponsors, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination will be made from funds held outside the trust account. Other than quarterly audit committee review of such reimbursements, we do not expect to have any additional controls in place governing our reimbursement payments to our directors and officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with our activities on our behalf in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination. Other than these payments and reimbursements, no compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid by the company to our co-sponsors, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to completion of our initial business combination.

After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting or management fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation materials or tender offer materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed initial business combination. We have not established any limit on the amount of such fees that may be paid by the combined company to our directors or members of management. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of the proposed initial business combination, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommended to the board of directors for determination, either by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on our board of directors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On May 21, 2021, we issued to APX Sponsor an aggregate of 4,312,500 Class B Ordinary Shares (“Founder Shares”) in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000, or approximately $0.006 per share. On November 8, 2021, APX Sponsor transferred 20,000 of our Founder Shares to two of our independent directors, Angel Losada Moreno and David Proman, in each case at their original purchase price.

In connection with the Transfer, APX Sponsor transferred to the Templar Sponsor 3,342,188 Founder Shares. In addition, in connection with the Transfer, Mr. Moreno and Mr. Moreno each transferred their 20,000 Founder Shares back to APX Sponsor.

On October 2, 2023, each of the Templar Sponsor and the APX Sponsor converted all of its Class B Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis into Class A Ordinary Shares.

Working Capital Promissory Note

On September 8, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Templar Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to Templar Sponsor. The Templar Note does not bear interest and the principal balance will be payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination (the “Maturity Date”). In the event the Company consummates its initial business combination, the Templar Sponsor has the option on the Maturity Date to convert up to $1,500,000 of the principal outstanding under the Templar Note into that number of warrants (“Working Capital Warrants”) equal to the portion of the principal amount of the Templar Note being converted divided by $1.00, rounded up to the nearest whole number. The terms of the Working Capital Warrants, if any, would be identical to the terms of the private placement warrants issued by the Company at the time of its initial public offering, as described in the prospectus for the initial public offering dated December 6, 2021 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the transfer restrictions applicable thereto. The Templar Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which automatically triggers the unpaid principal balance of the Templar Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Templar Note becoming immediately due and payable. The issuance of the Templar Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Amended and Restated Promissory Note

On February 9, 2024, the Company and Templar Sponsor amended and restated the Templar Note (the “Amended and Restated Note”), to increase the maximum principal amount from $500,000 to $2,000,000 and to provide that, in addition to funding working capital needs, amounts under the Amended and Restated Note may be used the purposes of making one or more payments to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York limited liability trust company, as Extension Payments (as defined in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 29, 2023, as amended). Other than as set forth above, the terms of the Amended and Restated Note are identical to those of the Templar Note. The issuance of the Amended and Restated Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended

Related Party Policy

The audit committee of our Board has adopted a policy setting forth the policies and procedures for its review and approval or ratification of “related party transactions.” A “related party transaction” is any consummated or proposed transaction or series of transactions: (i) in which the company was or is to be a

participant; (ii) the amount of which exceeds (or is reasonably expected to exceed) the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of the company’s total assets at year end for the prior two completed fiscal years in the aggregate over the duration of the transaction (without regard to profit or loss); and (iii) in which a “related party” had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. “Related parties” under this policy will include: (i) our directors, nominees for director or officers; (ii) any record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing if the foregoing person is a natural person; and (iv) any other person who maybe a “related person” pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to the policy, the audit committee will consider (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of each related party transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the transaction contravenes our code of ethics or other policies, (iv) whether the audit committee believes the relationship underlying the transaction to be in the best interests of the company and its shareholders and (v) the effect that the transaction may have on a director’s status as an independent member of the board and on his or her eligibility to serve on the board’s committees. Management will present to the audit committee each proposed related party transaction, including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. Under the policy, we may consummate related party transactions only if our audit committee approves or ratifies the transaction in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the policy. The policy will not permit any director or officer to participate in the discussion of, or decision concerning, a related person transaction in which he or she is the related party.
