- The Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of the Issuer's initial business combination, or at any time prior thereto at the option of the Reporting Person, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, and have no expiration date. On May 14, 2026, the underwriters waived the right to exercise their over-allotment option that was granted to them in connection with the Issuer's initial public offering. As a result, the Reporting Person forfeited 1,250,000 Class B Ordinary Shares for no consideration, as described in the Registration Statement. The Reporting Person is controlled by a board of managers, consisting of Philip Kassin, Jeffrey Douglas Epstein, and Stuart Ellman. Each manager has one vote, and the approval of each manager is required to approve an action of such entity. As a result, no member has the ability to direct the voting or disposition of the shares held by the Reporting Person, and each member of the board of managers disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.

over-allotment option financial
"the underwriters waived the right to exercise their over-allotment option that was granted to them in connection with the Issuer's initial public offering"
An over-allotment option is a special agreement that allows underwriters to sell more shares than initially planned if demand is high. Think of it like a retailer offering extra units of a popular product to meet additional customer interest. This option helps ensure the full sale is completed and can also give investors extra shares if they want more.
initial business combination financial
"The Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of the Issuer's 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.
beneficial ownership financial
"each member of the board of managers disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
