Securities Act exemption Section 4(a)(2) Note issued as a private offering exemption from registration
unsecured promissory note financial
"the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount"
An unsecured promissory note is a written IOU in which a borrower promises to repay a loan plus any interest but does not pledge any asset as collateral. Investors care because it relies solely on the borrower’s ability to pay—like lending money to someone without holding their watch as security—so it usually carries higher interest and higher risk and ranks below secured debt if the borrower defaults, affecting expected recovery and company credit profile.
initial business combination financial
"payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination"
An initial business combination is the deal in which a special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merges with or acquires an operating business to bring that business onto public markets. Think of the SPAC as an empty shell that raises money from investors, then uses that cash to buy a private company—this transaction turns the private company into a public one and often changes its ownership, valuation, and access to capital, so investors should watch for shifts in risk, future growth prospects, and shareholder rights.
Working Capital Units financial
"convert all or any portion of the principal outstanding under the Note into that number of units (“Working Capital Units”)"
private placement units financial
"identical to the terms of the private placement units issued by the Company at the time of its initial public offering"
events of default financial
"The Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which"
Events of default are specific breaches or failures listed in a loan, bond, or credit agreement that give lenders the right to act, such as demanding immediate repayment, raising interest rates, or taking secured assets. They matter to investors because triggering one is like setting off a financial alarm: it raises the chance of foreclosure, restructuring, or bankruptcy and can sharply reduce the value of a company’s stock or bonds and increase borrowing costs.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The information provided in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On April 14, 2026, Range Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of up to $1,500,000 to Range Capital Holdings, LLC (the “Payee”), an affiliate of Range Capital Acquisition Sponsor, LLC, the sponsor and a significant shareholder of the Company, which may be drawn down from time to time prior to the Maturity Date (defined below) upon request by the Company. The Note does not bear interest and the principal balance will be payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination (such date, the “Maturity Date”). In the event the Company consummates its initial business combination, the Payee has the option on the Maturity Date to convert all or any portion of the principal outstanding under the Note into that number of units (“Working Capital Units”) equal to the portion of the principal amount of the Note being converted divided by $10.00, rounded up to the nearest whole number. The terms of the Working Capital Units, if any, would be identical to the terms of the private placement units issued by the Company at the time of its initial public offering (the “IPO”), as described in the prospectus for the IPO dated December 19, 2024 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the transfer restrictions applicable thereto. The Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of certain of which automatically triggers the unpaid principal balance of the Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Note becoming immediately due and payable.

The issuance of the Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing description of the Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
