Trust Account financial
"deposited into the Company's Trust Account"
A trust account is a special bank or brokerage account where assets are held and managed by a designated person or firm (the trustee) for the benefit of another person or group (the beneficiary). It matters to investors because it separates assets from personal or corporate funds, can protect assets, control how and when money is used, and may affect tax or legal rights—think of it as a locked drawer opened only under agreed rules.
business combination financial
"consummate a business combination"
A business combination happens when two or more companies join together to operate as one, like two friends merging their teams into a single group. This is important because it can change how companies grow, compete, and make money, often making them bigger and more powerful in the market.
quorum regulatory
"constituting a quorum for the transaction of business"
A quorum is the minimum number of members needed to officially hold a meeting or make decisions. It ensures that decisions are made with enough participation to represent the group’s interests, much like a majority must be present for a vote to be valid. For investors, understanding quorum is important because it affects when and how important company or organization decisions can be legally made.
record date regulatory
"the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.

Amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement

 

As approved by the shareholders of Alpha Star Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Alpha Star” or the “Company”) at the extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders held on October 13, 2026 (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), the Company entered into an amendment dated as of October 13, 2026 (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021 (the “Trust Agreement”), by and between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as amended, to remove the monthly extension payment otherwise required to be deposited into the Company’s trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”) beginning with the payment due in October 2026, and to provide the Company with the discretion to extend the date on which to commence liquidating the Trust Account up to twelve (12) times from December 15, 2026, to December 15, 2027, each by an additional one (1) month, without depositing additional funds in the Trust Account.

The proposed amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association approved by the Company’s shareholders were to remove the monthly extension payment otherwise required to be deposited into the Company’s Trust Account beginning with the payment due in October 2026, and to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination to December 15, 2027, without depositing additional funds in the Trust Account, by deleting the existing Section 36.2 thereof and replacing it with the new Section 36.2 (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”).
