(i) Acquiror Ordinary Shares. Subject to Section 4.1(a)(iii) each (A) Acquiror Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive, upon delivery of the Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 4.2 (if required by the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 4.2(b)), one newly issued PubCo Share. As of the Merger Effective Time, each Acquiror Shareholder shall cease to have any other rights in and to Acquiror or the Surviving Company (other than those rights in and to the Surviving Company as a shareholder of the Surviving Company).

17

(ii) Exchange of Acquiror Rights. Each Acquiror Right outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall cease to be a right with respect to Acquiror Shares and shall be exchanged for one-twentieth (1/20^th) of a PubCo Share. Any fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(iii) Acquiror Treasury Shares. Notwithstanding clause (i) above or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if there are any Acquiror Shares that are owned by Acquiror as treasury shares or any Acquiror Shares owned by any direct or indirect subsidiary of Acquiror immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, such Acquiror Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or payment or other consideration therefor.

(b) At the Amalgamation Effective Time, by virtue of the Amalgamation and, except as expressly described below, without any action on the part of any Company Shareholder:

(i) Company Ordinary Shares. Each Company Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled (which cancellation of Company Ordinary Shares shall be deemed not to be a reduction of share capital within the meaning of the Singapore Companies Act) and each Company Shareholder shall receive, as consideration for such Company Share, upon delivery of the Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 4.2 (if required by the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 4.2(b)), such number of newly issued PubCo Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio. As of the Amalgamation Effective Time, each Company Shareholder shall cease to have any other rights in and to the Company or the Amalgamation Surviving Company.

(ii) Amalgamation Sub Shares. Each share of Amalgamation Sub issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time shall be automatically converted pursuant to the Amalgamation into one (1) Surviving Company Ordinary Share and, accordingly, PubCo shall become, pursuant to the Amalgamation and the cancellation of the Company Ordinary Shares, the holder of all Amalgamation Surviving Company Ordinary Shares.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a PubCo Share will be issued by virtue of the Merger, the Amalgamation or the other Transactions, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a PubCo Share (after aggregating all fractional PubCo Shares that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall instead have the number of PubCo Shares issued to such Person rounded down in the aggregate to the nearest whole PubCo Share.

Section 4.2. Share Exchange Procedures

At or before the Amalgamation Closing, PubCo shall deposit with the Exchange Agent the number of PubCo Shares comprising the Aggregate Merger Consideration and the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration.

(b) If the Exchange Agent requires that, as a condition to receive the Aggregate Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration, any holder of Acquiror Shares, Acquiror Rights or Company Ordinary Shares deliver a letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent, then at or as promptly as practicable following the Merger Effective Time, PubCo shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each such Acquiror Shareholder, Acquiror Rightsholder or Company Shareholder (as applicable) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and the risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper transfer of each share to the Exchange Agent, and which letter of transmittal will be in customary form and have such other provisions as Acquiror or PubCo may reasonably specify) for use in such exchange (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”).

18

(c) Each holder of Acquiror Ordinary Shares or Company Ordinary Shares that have been converted into a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration (as applicable), pursuant to Section 4.1(a) or Section 4.1(b), respectively, shall receive such portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration, as applicable, upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request), together with a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal (if required by the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 4.2(b)) and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the transfer of any share.

(d) Promptly following the date that is one (1) year after the Merger Effective Time, PubCo shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to PubCo all documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, any portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration that remains unclaimed shall be returned to PubCo, and any Person that was a holder of (i) Acquiror Ordinary Shares as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time that has not exchanged such Acquiror Ordinary Shares for an applicable portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 4.2 or (ii) Company Ordinary Shares as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time that has not exchanged such Company Ordinary Shares for an applicable portion of the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration in accordance with this Section 4.2, in each case prior to the date that is one (1) year after the Merger Effective Time, may provide evidence of former ownership of such Acquiror Shares or Company Ordinary Shares satisfactory to PubCo, and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and PubCo shall promptly deliver, such applicable portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration (as applicable) without any interest thereupon. None of Acquiror, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub, the Company, the Surviving Company, the Amalgamation Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to and in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. If any such shares shall not have been transferred immediately prior to such date on which any amounts payable pursuant to this Article IV would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such amounts shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 4.3. Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of Acquiror, PubCo and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement such Taxes as may be required to be deducted and withheld from such amounts under the Code or any other applicable Tax Law (as reasonably determined by Acquiror, PubCo, or the Exchange Agent, respectively). Other than in respect of amounts subject to compensatory withholding, Acquiror, PubCo or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding is expected to be made at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to making any such deduction or withholding, which notice shall be in writing and include the amount of and basis for such deduction or withholding. Acquiror, PubCo and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Person to reduce or eliminate any such requirement to deduct or withhold to the extent permitted by Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be (i) timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority and (ii) treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Article XIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 13.1. Trust Account Waiver. Each of the Company, PubCo and Amalgamation Sub hereby represents and warrants that it has read the final prospectus of Acquiror, dated as of May 17, 2024 and filed with the SEC (File No. 333-277810) on May 17, 2024 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, and understands that Acquiror has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Acquiror’s public shareholders (including the public shareholders of the overallotment shares acquired by Acquiror’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, Acquiror may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (i) to the Public Shareholders with respect to Acquiror Share Redemptions, (ii) to the Public Shareholders if Acquiror fails to consummate a Business Combination within eighteen (18) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to Acquiror’s organizational documents, (iii) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses or (iv) to Acquiror after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. Each of the Company, PubCo and Amalgamation Sub hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than in Section 8.13), none of the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub or any of their respective Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any claim that arises as a result of, in connection with, or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability under any Transaction Document (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Each of the Company, PubCo and Amalgamation Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub or any of their respective Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any Released Claims (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document). Each of the Company, PubCo and Amalgamation Sub agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Acquiror and its Affiliates to induce Acquiror to enter into the Transaction Documents, and each of the Company, PubCo and Amalgamation Sub further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub and each of their respective Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub or any of their respective Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which action or proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Acquiror or its Representatives, each of the Company, PubCo, and Amalgamation Sub hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s, PubCo’s, Amalgamation Sub’s and each of their respective Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub or any of their respective Affiliates (or any person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub or any of their respective Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief or otherwise, Acquiror and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company, PubCo, Amalgamation Sub and their respective Affiliates the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event Acquiror or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such action or proceeding.

Section 13.2. Waiver. Any party to this Agreement may, at any time prior to the Amalgamation Closing, by action taken by its board of directors or other officers or Persons thereunto duly authorized, (i) extend the time for the performance of the obligations or acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties (of another party hereto) that are contained in this Agreement or (iii) waive compliance by the other parties hereto with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement, but such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party granting such extension or waiver.
