[8-K] Israel Acquisitions Corp Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Israel Acquisitions Corp (ISRL) disclosed a Letter Agreement with Gadfin and an Advisory Agreement with BTIG tied to ISRL’s proposed business combination with Gadfin. BTIG will provide strategic and capital markets advisory services and, as compensation, receive $500,000 in cash (payable from the trust) and 100,000 Class A shares of ISRL immediately prior to closing, which will be exchanged for 100,000 NewPubco shares valued at $10.00 per share upon consummation.

In exchange, BTIG waived its deferred underwriting commission, conditioned on payment of the advisory fee and closing. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit additional ISRL shares equal to the number issued to BTIG. Gadfin consented to the advisory arrangement and waived its BCA termination right related to obtaining the deferred fee waiver. Before closing, NewPubco will arrange a Public Offering of Securities Insurance to cover any BTIG indemnification claims. BTIG also received a three‑year ROFR to lead the next SPAC IPO by ISRL or the Sponsor and may terminate the agreement at any time, forfeiting both the advisory fee and the deferred commission.

Insights

Capital markets & SPAC structures

BTIG swaps deferred underwriting for advisory fee; terms hinge on closing.

The agreements align incentives around the Gadfin combination: BTIG provides advisory support and waives its Deferred Underwriting Commission in return for an advisory package of $500,000 cash from the trust and 100,000 shares (to convert into NewPubco shares at $10.00). The Sponsor offsets issuance by forfeiting an equal number of shares.

Key dependencies include closing of the Business Combination and payment of the advisory fee; without closing, the compensation and waiver do not take effect. NewPubco must obtain Public Offering of Securities Insurance to cover BTIG indemnification claims.

The three‑year ROFR for BTIG on the next SPAC IPO formalizes a future engagement pathway. Overall, this is administrative to facilitate the transaction; actual impact depends on consummation of the combination.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 14, 2025, Israel Acquisitions Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company” or “ISRL”) entered into a Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Gadfin Ltd., a company domiciled in Israel (“Gadfin”), pursuant to which (i) Gadfin consented to ISRL entering into an advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) by and among ISRL, Israel Acquisitions Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) and BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), under which BTIG will serve as capital markets advisor and waive its right to the deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”) pursuant to the underwriting agreement between BTIG and ISRL dated January 12, 2023 (filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 19, 2023) in exchange for the Advisory Fee (as defined below) upon closing of the business combination with Gadfin (the “Business Combination”), (ii) Gadfin agreed that the Advisory Agreement satisfied the requirement under the business combination agreement between Gadfin and ISRL, dated January 26, 2025, as amended (the “BCA”, and the transaction contemplated thereby, the “Transactions”) (filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 27, 2025) pursuant to which Gadfin had the right to terminate the BCA if ISRL did not receive a waiver of the Deferred Underwriting Commission within thirty (30) days of July 2, 2025, and waived its related termination right under the BCA, (iii) the Sponsor agreed to forfeit an additional number of ordinary shares of ISRL equal to the number of ordinary shares to be issued to BTIG under the Advisory Agreement and (iv) Gadfin and ISRL agreed that prior to closing Gadfin Regev Holdings Ltd., a company domiciled in Israel (“NewPubco”) shall arrange a Public Offering of Securities Insurance policy to cover any indemnification claims brought by BTIG against NewPubco or ISRL. The Letter Agreement is governed by New York law, and constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter.

On October 14, 2025, ISRL entered into the Advisory Agreement, effective October 10, 2025, pursuant to which BTIG agreed to provide strategic and capital markets advisory services to ISRL in connection with its business activities, including the Business Combination. Under the Advisory Agreement, BTIG will advise ISRL on market conditions and capital markets strategy, but will not act as a financial advisor or participate in the offering or solicitation of securities for the Business Combination. As compensation for such services, BTIG will receive an advisory fee of $500,000 in cash (payable from the trust account) and 100,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of ISRL immediately prior to closing of the Business Combination (the “Advisory Fee”), which will be exchanged for 100,000 ordinary shares of NewPubco, valued at $10.00 per share, upon consummation of the Business Combination. In exchange, BTIG waived its right to the Deferred Underwriting Commission, conditioned upon payment of the Advisory Fee and closing of the Business Combination. The Advisory Agreement also provides BTIG with a three-year exclusive right of first refusal to act as lead underwriter for the next special purpose acquisition company initial public offering undertaken by ISRL or the Sponsor under certain conditions and indemnification protections. The Advisory Agreement is governed by New York law and allows BTIG to terminate at any time, in which case it forfeits both the Advisory Fee and the Deferred Underwriting Commission.

The foregoing descriptions of the Letter Agreement and Advisory Agreement are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter Agreement and Advisory Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. ISRL and Gadfin have based these forward-looking statements on each of its current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial and operational metrics and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the Transactions. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on the current expectations of Gadfin’s and ISRL’s respective management teams and are not predictions of actual performance. Nothing in this communication should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may materially differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of ISRL and Gadfin. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about ISRL and Gadfin that may cause each of its actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include changes in domestic and foreign business changes in the competitive environment in which Gadfin operates; Gadfin’s ability to manage its growth prospects, meet its operational and financial targets, and execute its strategy; the impact of any economic disruptions, decreased market demand and other macroeconomic factors, including the effect of a global pandemic, to Gadfin’s business, projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics; Gadfin’s reliance on its senior management team and key employees; risks related to liquidity, capital resources and capital expenditures; failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or changes in the regulatory environment in which Gadfin operates; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries that Gadfin may face; assumptions or analyses used for Gadfin’s forecasts proving to be incorrect and causing its actual operating and financial results to be significantly below its forecasts, including as a result of, among other things, the inability to sign new contracts or secure necessary financial resources as anticipated; an acquisition not occurring as planned and negatively affecting operating results; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the Transactions, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect NewPubco, which will be the combined company upon closing of the Transactions, or the expected benefits of the Transactions or that the approval of the shareholders of ISRL is not obtained; the risk that shareholders of ISRL could elect to have their shares redeemed by ISRL, thus leaving NewPubco with insufficient cash to complete the Transactions or grow its business; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Gadfin or ISRL; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Gadfin; the effects of competition; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the ability of Gadfin to manage expenses and recruit and retain key employees; the ability of ISRL or NewPubco to issue equity or equity linked securities in connection with the Transactions or in the future; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries; a potential U.S. government shutdown; the impact of certain geopolitical events, including wars in Ukraine and the surrounding region, the war between Israel and Hamas, the war between Israel and Iran, and conflict in the Middle East; the impact of a future pandemic on Gadfin, ISRL or NewPubco’s projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics, or on any of the foregoing risks; those factors discussed in under the heading “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form F-4 confidentially submitted to the SEC by NewPubco (the “Registration Statement”) (when publicly filed), as may be amended from time to time, and other documents filed, or to be filed, with the SEC by ISRL or NewPubco. If any of these risks materialize or Gadfin’s or ISRL’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Gadfin nor ISRL presently know or that Gadfin and ISRL currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Gadfin’s and ISRL’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Gadfin and ISRL anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Gadfin’s and ISRL’s assessments to change. However, while Gadfin and ISRL may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Gadfin and ISRL specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Gadfin and ISRL’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. An investment in Gadfin, NewPubco, or ISRL is not an investment in any of Gadfin’s, NewPubco’s, or ISRL’s respective founders’ or sponsors’ past investments or companies or any funds affiliated with any of the foregoing. The historical results of these investments are not indicative of future performance of Gadfin, NewPubco, or ISRL, which may differ materially from the performance of past investments, companies or affiliated funds.
