As of the date hereof, we are authorized to issue a maximum of 551,000,000 shares with no par value divided into (i) 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, (ii) 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and 1,000,000 preferred shares, of which 5,587,978 Class A ordinary shares were issued and outstanding and 100,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued and outstanding. No preferred share was issued and outstanding.

Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders except as required by law.

Each of the members of our board of directors serve for a term as determined by the holders of Class B ordinary shares prior to the closing of a business combination.

Because our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association authorize the issuance of up to 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, if we were to enter into a business combination, we may (depending on the terms of such a business combination) be required to increase the number of Class A ordinary shares which we are authorized to issue at the same time as our shareholders vote on the business combination to the extent we seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination.

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, will 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.

Committees of the Board of Directors

We are currently quoted on Over-the Counters (“OTC”) market under the symbols “ASUUF,” “ASCBF,” “ASCWF” and “ASCRF”. The OTC market does not have any requirements for establishing any committees.

The Board has a standing audit, nominating and compensation committee. The independent directors oversee director nominations. Each audit committee and compensation committee has a charter, which was filed with the SEC as exhibits to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 on March 28, 2022.

Audit Committee

We have established an audit committee of the Board of Directors.

Upon their appointment, the members of the audit committee will be Tsang Wing Sze, Mr. Luk Sui Cheung Peter and Ms. Minjie Mao, each of whom will qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Ms. Minjie Mao will be the chairperson of the audit committee. The Board has determined that Ms. Minjie Mao qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

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

        the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent auditors and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;

        pre-approving all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors or any other registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;

        reviewing and discussing with the independent auditors all relationships the auditors have with us in order to evaluate their continued independence;

        setting clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditors;

        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 auditors describing (i) the independent auditor’s internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit 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;

        reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and

        reviewing with management, the independent auditors, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

9

Nominating Committee

We have established a nominating committee of the Board of Directors which will consist of Ms. Tsang Wing Sze, Mr. Luk Sui Cheung Peter and Ms. Minjie Mao, each of whom will qualify as an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards. Mr. Luk Sui Cheung Peter will serve as chairman of the nominating committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our Board of Directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

Compensation Committee

The compensation committee reviews annually the Company’s corporate goals and objectives relevant to the officers’ compensation, evaluates the officers’ performance in light of such goals and objectives, determines and approves the officers’ compensation level based on this evaluation; makes recommendations to the Board regarding approval, disapproval, modification, or termination of existing or proposed employee benefit plans, makes recommendations to the Board with respect to non-CEO and non-CFO compensation and administers the Company’s incentive-compensation plans and equity-based plans. The compensation committee has the authority to delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees as it may deem appropriate in its sole discretion. The chief executive officer of the Company may not be present during voting or deliberations of the compensation committee with respect to his compensation. The Company’s executive officers do not play a role in suggesting their own salaries. Neither the Company nor the compensation committee has engaged a compensation consultant to determine or recommend the amount or form of executive or director compensation. The compensation committee did not meet during 2024.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as indicated above, no compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the compensation committee will only be responsible for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements to be entered into in connection with such initial business combination.

The members of the compensation committee will be Ms. Tsang Wing Sze, Mr. Luk Sui Cheung Peter and Ms. Minjie Mao, each of whom will qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Mr. Luk Sui Cheung Peter will serve as the chairman of the compensation committee.

Code of Ethics

We adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.

Director Independence

The OTC markets does not maintain any standards regarding the “independence” of the directors for our Board of Directors, and we are not otherwise subject to the requirements of any national securities exchange or an inter-dealer quotation system with respect to the need to have a majority of our directors be independent.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our ordinary shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These reporting persons are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company’s knowledge, during the year ended December 31, 2024, there were no delinquent filers.

Shareholder Communications

A shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Board may do so by directing a written request addressed to the Board at the address appearing on the first page of this Information Statement.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As of the filing of this Schedule 14F-1, the Company does not pay its officers and/or directors any cash compensation for services rendered to us. The Company does not have any employment agreements with its officers and/or directors. We do not have any long-term compensation plans or stock option plans. There are no stock option, retirement, pension, or profit sharing plans for the benefit of our officers and directors. The Buyer, the Sponsor, its officers and directors, and any of their respective affiliates, may be reimbursed for any bona-fide, documented 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. In addition, we may pay a customary financial consulting fee to an affiliate of the Buyer, which will not be made from the proceeds of our initial public offering held in the trust account prior to the completion of our initial business combination. We may pay such financial consulting fee in the event such party or parties provide us with specific target company, industry, financial or market expertise, as well as insights, relationships, services or resources that we believe are necessary in order to assess, negotiate and consummate an initial business combination. The amount of any such financial consulting fee we pay will be based upon the prevailing market for similar services for comparable transactions at such time, and will be subject to the review of our audit committee. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to the Buyer, the Sponsor, officers or directors, or our or any of their respective affiliates.

After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other compensation from the combined company. All compensation will be fully disclosed to our shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time such materials are distributed, 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 after the completion of our initial business combination will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors.

We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination should be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On June 28, 2021, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, with no par value for an aggregate price of $25,000. On March 24, 2022, the Company cancelled 431,250 of such Founder Shares for no consideration, resulting in 5,318,750 Founder Shares remaining outstanding (of which an aggregate of up to 693,750 shares were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriter). As a result of the underwriter’s partial exercise of the over-allotment option on May 5, 2022, 318,750 shares of Class B ordinary share were forfeited for no consideration on May 6, 2022.

Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement entered by and between the Company and the Sponsor dated December 7, 2023, the Sponsor transferred and delivered to the Company 4,900,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company in exchange for 4,900,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company (the “Share Exchange”). The 4,900,000 Class A Shares issued in connection with the Share Exchange are subject to the same restrictions as applied to the Class B Shares before the Share Exchange, including, among other things, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of an initial business combination as described in the prospectus for the Company’s initial public offering. The issuance of the 4,900,000 Class A ordinary shares has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) thereof.

The Initial Shareholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On July 8, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $400,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note. This loan is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of March 31, 2022 or the completion of the IPO. The amount was subsequently repaid on May 10, 2022.

On December 9, 2024, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $160,000 to cover various expenses of the Company and for working capital purposes pursuant to a promissory note (the “2024 Note”). This loan is non-interest bearing and payable no later than the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination. The 2024 Note is convertible into warrants having the same terms and conditions as the Private Warrants, at the price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Sponsor. As of December 31, 2024, there was $157,838 outstanding under the 2024 Note.

On July 15, 2025, Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $152,000 to cover various expenses of the Company and for working capital purposes pursuant to a promissory note (the “2025 Note”). This loan is non-interest bearing and payable no later than the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination. The 2025 Note is convertible into warrants having the same terms and conditions as the Private Warrants, at the price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Sponsor. As of the date of this filing, there was approximately $16,700 outstanding under the 2025 Note.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the

12

Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,150,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible 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. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no Working Capital Loans outstanding.

Except as set forth in our discussion above, none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Related Party Policy

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Our audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions.
