Investment Management Trust Agreement financial

"Pursuant to Section 1(j) of the Investment Management Trust Agreement between International Media Acquisition Corp."

A written contract that names who will run and make investment decisions for a trust’s assets, spells out their authority, duties, fees and how performance and risks will be handled. It matters to investors because it defines who is responsible for growing and protecting the money—like hiring a caretaker with a clear job description—and sets the rules and safeguards that affect returns, costs and how disputes or withdrawals are resolved.

Business Combination financial

"extending the time available in order to consummate a Business Combination with the Target Business"

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.

Trust Account financial

"authorize you to deposit $2,000, which will be wired to you, into the Trust Account investments"

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.

Applicable Deadline financial

"with the Applicable Deadline extended from September 2, 2026 to October 2, 2026"

Extension Letter financial

"This Extension Letter shall serve as the notice required with respect to Extension"
