Item
1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
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
foregoing description of the Trust Agreement Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Trust Agreement
Amendment, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item
5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
At
the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved certain amendments to Alpha
Star’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of
Association”). 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”).
The
Charter Amendment Proposal is described in more detail in Alpha Star’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission on September 21, 2026 (the “Proxy Statement”). The final voting results for each of the proposals
are indicated below. On October 13, 2026, following the approval of the proposals described above, the Company adopted the amendments
to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the amendments to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item
5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At
the Extraordinary General
Meeting held on October 13, 2026, there were 3,205,002 ordinary shares of Alpha Star present in person or represented by proxy, representing
99.32% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Alpha Star as of September 15, 2026, the record date for the Extraordinary General
Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business. At the Extraordinary General Meeting, each of the proposals
