Insights

Administrative extension approved; minimal financing via sponsor note.

DT Cloud Star received shareholder approval to extend its business combination deadline in one-month increments for up to twelve months by depositing $75,000 per month into the trust. This mechanism preserves optionality while requiring cash top-ups to maintain the trust structure during the search period.

The company issued a $75,000 unsecured note to its sponsor, convertible at $10.00 per unit, with no interest and payable at business combination close. This is a small, targeted funding step to meet the initial extension deposit without drawing on trust funds.

Redemptions totaled 5,297,491 shares, which can reduce the public float and the cash available at closing. The company has already deposited the first $75,000 to extend to November 26, 2025; any further extensions will require additional monthly deposits, per the approved terms.
