On February 28, 2024, the Company filed with the

materials to supplement that G-Star Management Corporation, the
sponsor of the Company (the “Sponsor”), has signed
and delivered a sponsor undertaking letter (the “Sponsor
Undertaking Letter”) dated February 28, 2024 to the
Company, pursuant to which, the Sponsor (or any of its affiliates
or designees) irrevocably agrees to deposit into the Trust Account
an amount of $20,000 as an additional extension fee (the
“Additional Extension Fee”, together with the
Proposed Reduced Extension Fee, the “Total Revised
Extension Fee”) to add to the Proposed Reduced Extension
Fee in the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal, for each extension
commencing from the first extension payment following the approval
of the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal. The Additional Extension
Fee will be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to
the Proposed Reduced Extension Fee. This Sponsor Undertaking Letter
shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (i) the completion
of the initial business combination by the Company or (ii) the
liquidation of the Company; provided, however, that this Sponsor
Undertaking Letter shall earlier terminate automatically in the
event that the original Proposal No. 1 is defeated or not otherwise
duly approved.
On March 6, 2024, the board of directors of the
Company proposed to amend the monthly fee payable by the Sponsor
and/or its designee into the trust account to extend the date by
which the Company must consummate its initial business combination
as proposed in the original Proposal 1 to the Meeting, from an
amount equal to the lesser of (i) $50,000 for all outstanding
Public Shares and (ii) $0.033 for each outstanding Public Share as
proposed in the original filing, to an amount equal to the lesser
of (i) $75,000 and (ii) $0.033 for each outstanding Public Share.
The Amended Monthly Extension Fee, if and to the extent approved at
the Meeting, will become operative for the monthly extension fee
beginning on the 4th of the first month following the approval of
the Amended Monthly Extension Fee at the Meeting and the 4th of
each succeeding month until February 4, 2025. In light of the
Amended Monthly Extension Fee, on March 6, 2024, the Sponsor and
the Company agree to terminate the Sponsor Undertaking Letter with
immediate effect.
In light of the Amended Monthly Extension Fee,
the Company has filed the Supplement as dated March 6, 2024 with
the Commission to, among others, amend Proposal No. 1 (the
“Amended Proposal No. 1”) as described more fully
herein above and amend the related proxy card (the “Amended
Proxy Card”). Other than as indicated herein, no other
changes have been made to the Proxy Statement or the proxy card as
originally filed and mailed. Any references to the “Proxy
Statement” are to the Proxy Statement as amended and supplemented
by the Supplement and all the filed additional proxy statement
supplements as indicated above.
The Supplement is not complete without,
and may not be utilized except in connection with, the Proxy
Statement, including any supplements and amendments thereto.
Shareholders of the Company should read carefully and in their
entirety the Supplement and the Proxy Statement and all
accompanying annexes and exhibits, in particular, the matters
discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” on page 10 of the Proxy
Statement.
The Amended Proxy Card differs from the
proxy card previously made available to shareholders of the Company
with the Proxy Statement, in that the enclosed Amended Proxy Card
includes the Amended Proposal No. 1 as described above. If
shareholders return, or have already returned, an original proxy
card, shareholders’ proxies are no longer valid because the
proposals set forth on the original proxy card have been revised.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ANY ORIGINAL PROXY CARDS SUBMITTED ARE INVALID, SO
IT IS IMPORTANT TO SUBMIT THE AMENDED PROXY CARD TO INDICATE
SHAREHOLDERS’ VOTES ON THE REVISED PROPOSAL. The Company encourages
shareholders to resubmit their votes on the revised proposals by
submitting the Amended Proxy Card enclosed with this Amendment
Proposal No. 1 or by voting online or by email by following the
procedures on the Amended Proxy Card.
