Item 2.03 Creation
of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
Pursuant
to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”) of Blue World Acquisition Corporation (the
“Company”), the Company currently has until August 2, 2023 to complete its initial business combination, provided however
the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to April 2, 2024, each by an additional one-month extension,
subject to Blue World Holdings Limited, the sponsor of the Company (the “Sponsor”) and/or its designee, depositing $60,000
into the trust account of the Company.
On
July 31, 2023, a total of $60,000 was deposited into the trust account of the Company (the “Extension Fee”) to extend the
timeline to complete a business combination for an additional one month from August 2, 2023 to September 2, 2023 (the “Extension”).
Such deposit of the Extension Fee is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note (the “Extension Note”) in the principal amount
of $60,000 to the Sponsor.
On
July 31, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”, together with the Extension Note, the
“Notes”) in the amount of $120,000 to Sponsor. The proceeds of the Sponsor Note, which may be drawn down from time to time
until the Company consummates its initial business combination, will be used as general working capital purposes.
The
Notes bear no interest and are payable in full upon the consummation of the Company’s business combination (such date, the “Maturity
Date”). The following shall constitute an event of default: (i) a failure to pay the principal within five business days of the
Maturity Date; (ii) the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action, (iii) the breach of the Company’s obligations
thereunder; (iv) any cross defaults; (v) an enforcement proceedings against the Company; and (vi) any unlawfulness and invalidity in connection
with the performance of the obligations thereunder, in which case the Notes may be accelerated.
The
payee of the Notes, the Sponsor, has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Notes, in whole or in part, respectively, into
private units (the “Units”) of the Company, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share, one-half of one warrant, and one
right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of a business combination, as described in the prospectus
of the Company (File Number 333- 261585), by providing the Company with written notice of the intention to convert at least two business
days prior to the closing of the business combination. The number of Units to be received by the Sponsor in connection with such conversion
shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to such Payee by (y) $10.00.
The
issuance of the Notes was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.
The
copies of the Notes are attached as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference,
respectively. The disclosures set forth in this Item 2.03 are intended to be summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity
Securities.

this Note at least two business days prior to the closing of a Business Combination, this Note shall be deemed to be converted on such

its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing. |
| (c) | Involuntary Bankruptcy, etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction
