On January 13, 2026, Horizon Space Acquisition II Corp. (“HSPT”) filed a definitive proxy statement pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended and supplemented, the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the solicitation of proxies in connection with an extraordinary general meeting (the “Business Combination Meeting”) of HSPT’s shareholders to be held on February 12, 2026 in connection with the proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) between HSPT and SL BIO Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“SL Bio”).

 

In connection with the Business Combination Meeting, HSPT has determined to supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement as follows:

 

Additional Independent Director Nominees of the Combined Entity Following the Business Combination

 

In addition to the persons currently disclosed in the Definitive Proxy Statement that are anticipated to become the directors and executive officers of SL Science Holding Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and the combined entity following the Business Combination (“PubCo”), the following persons will be added as independent nominees of PubCo following the Business Combination:

 

Joseph Levinson. Mr. Levinson has over 25 years of experience managing cross-border issues for U.S.-listed foreign companies, as well as experience in accounting. From January 2025 to July 2025, Mr. Levinson served as an independent director of Robo.ai Inc., formerly known as NWTN Inc. (Nasdaq: AIIO), a company in the electric vehicle industry. From May 2020 to September 2021, he served as an independent director of China Liberal Education Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: CLEU), an educational service provider. Mr. Levinson worked for firms such as KPMG and Deloitte & Touche early in his career. Mr. Levinson received a bachelor’s degree from the University at Buffalo with a double major in finance and accounting, graduating summa cum laude, and he holds a United States Certified Public Accountant license for more than 25 years. He is qualified to serve as a director due to his accounting and public company experience.

Ms. Xu received her Bachelor’s degree in Telecommunication Engineering from Sun Yat-Sen (Zhongshan) University in 2004 and a Master’s degree in Economics from New York University in 2009.

As already disclosed in the Definitive Proxy Statement, following the closing of the Business Combination, PubCo expects its executive compensation program to reflect SL Bio’s compensation policies and philosophies, as they may be modified and updated from time to time. Following the closing of the Business Combination, PubCo expects that decisions with respect to the compensation of its executive officers, including the named executive officers, will be made by the compensation committee of PubCo’s board of directors. PubCo’s non-executive independent directors will be entitled to compensations commensurate with their respective duties and experience, including annual or monthly cash retainer, reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred in relation to the performance of their duties, and, with respect to certain independent directors, equity-based awards pursuant to an equity compensation plan to be adopted following the consummation of the Business Combination.
