PROXY STATEMENT FOR EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
OF SHAREHOLDERS OF CHENGHE ACQUISITION CO.
AND PROSPECTUS FOR UP TO 8,437,681 ORDINARY SHARES, 13,500,000 WARRANTS AND 13,500,000 ORDINARY SHARES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE OF THE WARRANTS OF SEMILUX INTERNATIONAL LTD.

On July 21, 2023, Chenghe Acquisition Co., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“Chenghe” or “SPAC”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Semilux International Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“CayCo”), SEMILUX LTD., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (“Merger Sub”), and Taiwan Color Optics, Inc. (“TCO” and together with CayCo and Merger Sub, the “TCO Parties”), a company incorporated and in existence under the laws of Taiwan with uniform commercial number of 25052644, pursuant to which, among other transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Chenghe with Chenghe being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (the “Merger”), and Chenghe will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.” (the “Business Combination”). The closing of the Business Combination will be conditional upon, among other things, the closing of the TCO Restructuring (the “TCO Restructuring Closing”) (as discussed further below). The time of the closing of the Business Combination is referred to herein as the “Closing.” The date of the Closing of the Business Combination is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

TCO Restructuring

To maximize CayCo’s control over TCO’s business and operations after the Closing and enhance the efficiency of future fundraising, the parties intend to have each existing TCO Shareholder exchange the Company Shares held by it, him or her with CayCo Ordinary Shares, so that at the Closing, or as soon as practicable thereafter, CayCo will be the sole shareholder of TCO. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, CayCo shall have acquired at least 90.1% of all issued and outstanding Company Shares on or prior to the Closing. Such restructuring is expected to be effected in two phases.

As of the date of the Business Combination Agreement, CayCo had entered into the Phase I Restructuring Documents with certain shareholders of TCO, pursuant to which CayCo will acquire 60% of the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares of TCO.

From the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the Closing, TCO shall use its best efforts to sign the Phase II Restructuring Documents with all of the remaining TCO Shareholders within twenty (20) Business Days after TCO has received the Company Shareholder Approval. The terms of the Phase II Restructuring Documents are expected to be substantially the same as those of the Phase I Restructuring Documents. The TCO Parties shall each use their respective best efforts to procure that sufficient TCO Shareholders will execute the Company Restructuring Documents such that the Company Acquisition Percentage shall be at least 90.1%. The purchase and acquisition of the Company Shares by CayCo in accordance with the Company Restructuring Documents at the TCO Restructuring Closing shall be referred to as the “Company Acquisition”.

The TCO Parties agree that the Company Restructuring Documents shall provide that at the TCO Restructuring Closing, CayCo shall issue and allot to each TCO Shareholder who has agreed to so subscribe (“Company Shareholders Subscription” and together with Company Acquisition, the “TCO Restructuring”) in respective of each Company Share owned by such person, a number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that is no more than the Subscription Factor.

The TCO Restructuring Closing shall take place at least one (1) Business Day before the Closing Date or such other time and place as Chenghe and TCO may mutually agree.

As soon as practicable and to the extent legally feasible under applicable laws after the Closing, TCO shall enter into and consummate a share exchange transaction with CayCo pursuant to the Merger and Acquisition Act for CayCo to acquire the Company Shares owned by the Remaining Company Shareholders with cash consideration at a price per share no greater than the per share equity value implied by the Base Equity Value. At the consummation of such share exchange transaction, CayCo will be the sole shareholder of TCO.

The Merger

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (i) each SPAC Unit (“SPAC Unit”) outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, consisting of one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant, will be automatically separated (“Unit Separation”) and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant; (ii) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (the “SPAC Class B Conversion”) and each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; (iii) each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (A) issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion; and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (1) CayCo Ordinary Share; and (iv) each SPAC Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a CayCo Warrant, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the applicable SPAC Warrant.

At the Closing, in accordance with the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands, Merger Sub will merge with and into Chenghe, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Chenghe will be the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo.

Proposals to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the other matters discussed in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement will be presented at the extraordinary general meeting (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”) of Chenghe Shareholders scheduled to be held on February 2, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time, at the office of White & Case LLP at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020 and via live webcast at https://www.cstproxy.com/chengheacquisition/sm2024.

Although CayCo is not currently a public reporting company, following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement is a part and the Closing, CayCo will become subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). CayCo intends to apply for listing of the CayCo Ordinary Shares on either The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) (either, the “Stock Exchange”), under the proposed symbol “SELX,” to be effective at the consummation of the Business Combination. It is a condition of the consummation of the Business Combination that the CayCo Ordinary Shares are approved for listing on the Stock Exchange (subject only to official notice of issuance thereof). While trading on the Stock Exchange is expected to begin on the first Business Day following the date of completion of the Business Combination, there can be no assurance that CayCo’s securities will be listed on the Stock Exchange or that a viable and active trading market will develop. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 50 for more information.

In connection with the Business Combination, Chenghe and TCO agreed on a fixed pre-money equity value of US$380 million for the Post-Closing Company. At the consummation of the TCO Restructuring, CayCo will issue and allot to each TCO Shareholder who agrees to participate in the TCO Restructuring in respective of each Company Share owned by such person, a number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that is no more than the Subscription Factor, which is the number resulting from dividing (x) the result of the quantity of US$380 million divided by US$10.00, by (y) the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares as at the time of calculation. Any increase in the number of TCO Shareholders who participate in the TCO Restructuring will increase in the number of CayCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the TCO Restructuring and at the consummation of the Business Combination.

In addition, TCO shall, as soon as practicable and to the extent legally feasible under the applicable laws after the closing of the Business Combination, enter into and consummate a share exchange with CayCo pursuant to the Merger and Acquisition Act for CayCo to acquire the Company Shares owned by the Remaining Company Shareholders with cash consideration at a price per share no greater than the per share equity implied by US$380 million fixed pre-money equity value. For the illustrative purpose only, we assume that at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring, all TCO Shareholders agree to participate in the TCO Restructuring.

(1) Assumes that 4,218,841 Public Shares are redeemed for aggregate redemption payments of approximately $45.69 million, assuming a $10.83 per share redemption price and based on funds in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2023.

(2) Assumes that 7,213,618 Public Shares are redeemed for aggregate redemption payments of approximately $74.30 million, assuming a $10.83 per share redemption price and based on funds in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2023. The number of Public Shares redeemed under the maximum redemption scenario is calculated based on the assumptions that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles. Assuming a $10.83 per share redemption price, the number of Public Shares remaining outstanding following the redemption must be at least 1,224,063 shares for SPAC to fulfill all of the abovementioned assumptions.

(3) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination.

Table of Contents

(4) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Private Placement Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination. As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, the Sponsor has not extended any working capital loan to Chenghe, which may be convertible into private placement warrants at the option of the Sponsor. None of Chenghe, its directors and officers is aware of any intention to obtain any working capital loan from the Sponsor.

(5) The Sponsor and its affiliates’ total potential ownership interest in the post-Closing Company, assuming the exercise and conversion of all securities following the Closing, including the SPAC Private Placement Warrants and Founder Shares, is estimated to comprise approximately 16.92% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in a no redemption scenario, 18.14% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in an intermediate redemption scenario and 19.14% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in a maximum redemption scenario.

As of the date of this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, none of CayCo, TCO and SPAC has entered into any agreement with any investor in relation to any PIPE Investment (as defined below).

CayCo is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and is therefore eligible to take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements otherwise applicable to other public companies.

CayCo is also a “foreign private issuer” as defined in the Exchange Act, and will be exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, CayCo’s officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, CayCo will not be required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act.

CayCo is a Cayman Islands holding company and does not conduct operations directly. CayCo will conduct its operations primarily through TCO, its subsidiary, after the Closing of the Business Combination. To the extent CayCo’s cash in the business is in Taiwan, the funds may not be available to distribute dividends to CayCo’s investors, or for other use outside of Taiwan, due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on the ability of CayCo or CayCo’s subsidiaries by the Taiwan government to transfer cash. The Taiwan government imposes controls on the convertibility of New Taiwan Dollar into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of Taiwan. TCO receives substantially all of its revenue in U.S. Dollars. Under current Taiwan laws and regulations, TCO may pay dividends only out of their accumulated after-tax profits each year upon satisfaction of relevant statutory conditions and procedures, if any, determined in accordance with Taiwanese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, TCO is required to maintain certain statutory reserves and shall also allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which in each case are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation. In accordance with the Company Act of Taiwan, 10% of the net profit shall be allocated as legal reserve until the accumulated legal reserve equals the paid-in capital. Further, the reservation for staff welfare and bonus funds shall comply with the regulations of the articles of incorporations. Furthermore, TCO is required to complete certain procedural requirements related to foreign exchange control in order to make dividend payments in foreign currencies. The conversion of New Taiwan Dollar into any foreign currency and remittance of foreign currencies into and out of Taiwan are subject to Taiwan foreign exchange regulations. Under the current Taiwan foreign exchange control regulations, foreign exchange including payment of dividends to shareholders, do not require prior approval from the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan), if the amount does not exceed the annual foreign exchange quota promulgated by the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) (“Taiwan CBC”). Under certain circumstances as prescribed by the relevant Taiwan regulations, documentary evidence of such foreign exchange transactions shall be presented and such transactions shall be conducted at designated foreign exchange banks in Taiwan which have the licenses to carry out foreign exchange business. However, there is no assurance that these foreign exchange regulations will remain unchanged in the future. If the relevant Taiwan regulations change in the future and any required approval is not obtained, TCO’s ability to make payments to CayCo in foreign currency may be restricted, and CayCo’s capital expenditure plans, business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected. Under the current Taiwan regulations, Taiwan CBC regulates the declaration of foreign exchange receipts, disbursements and transactions involving at least NT$500,000 (US$16,271) or the equivalent in foreign currency. A Taiwanese company, may, upon filing a duly completed and executed declaration form via the banks registered with Taiwan CBC, conduct foreign exchange transactions involving New Taiwan Dollars for trade-related purposes of up to US$50 million in aggregate per calendar year without special approval from Taiwan CBC. Foreign exchange transactions for non-trade-related purposes or exceeding the applicable annual quota threshold would require special approval

from Taiwan CBC, which will be at the discretion of and considered by Taiwan CBC on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, CayCo may provide loans to TCO. If the term of the loan is longer than one year, the TCO shall file a declaration of foreign debt to the competent authority when the parties sign a loan agreement or when the loan is remitted into Taiwan. CayCo cannot assure you that the Taiwan government will not intervene in such transactions or impose restrictions on the ability of CayCo and its subsidiaries to transfer cash. See “Risk Factors — TCO is subject to foreign exchange control imposed by Taiwan authorities, which may affect the paying dividends, repatriating the interest or making other payments to CayCo.” and “Risk Factors — TCO is subject to restrictions on paying dividend or making other payments to CayCo, which may restrict CayCo’s ability to satisfy its liquidity requirements.”

The accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement provides Chenghe Shareholders with detailed information about the Business Combination and other matters to be considered at the Extraordinary General Meeting. We encourage you to read the entire accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including the Annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 50 of the accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, or determined if this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement is accurate or adequate. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Investing in Chenghe and CayCo securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, please read the information under the section entitled “Risk Factors” elsewhere in the accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and under similar headings or in any amendment or supplement to the accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

CayCo is a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act and therefore is exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act, including the proxy rules, which impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations for U.S. and other issuers. Accordingly, after the Business Combination, CayCo Shareholders (as defined in the accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement) may receive less or different information about CayCo than they would receive about a U.S. domestic public company. See “Risk Factors — CayCo will be a foreign private issuer, and as a result, CayCo will not be subject to U.S. proxy rules and will be subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of a U.S. domestic public company.”

The accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement is dated January 12, 2024, and is expected to be first mailed or otherwise delivered to SPAC Shareholders on or about January 12, 2024.

GLOSSARY OF TECHNICAL TERMS

Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) are technologies that assist drivers with the safe operation of a motor vehicle, using automated technology, such as sensors and cameras, to detect nearby obstacles or driver errors and respond accordingly, and can enable various levels of autonomous driving.

Adaptive driving beam (ADB) systems are car light systems that produce glare-free high beam while reducing the risks to dazzling oncoming traffic, by shutting down or dimming individual light sources that projects to the oncoming traffic.

Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) is the standardization body that establishes standards for evaluating and validating the reliability and performance of integrated circuits used in automotive electronic applications. The standards aim to ensure that electronic components operating within the automotive environment maintain stable performance and can function under a wide range of temperatures and challenging conditions.

Application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is an integrated circuit (IC) chip customized for a particular use.

Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) is a risk classification scheme defined under the ISO 26262 (Functional Safety for Road Vehicles). This is an adaptation of the Safety Integrity Level (SIL) used in IEC 61508 for the automotive industry. This classification helps defining the safety requirements necessary to be in line with the ISO 26262 standard. The ASIL is established by performing a risk analysis of a potential hazard by looking at the severity, exposure and controllability of the vehicle operating scenario. There are four ASILs identified by the standard: ASIL A, ASIL B, ASIL C, ASIL D. ASIL D dictates the highest integrity requirements on the product and ASIL A the lowest.

The Levels of Autonomous Driving refer to the six levels defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers which indicate the automation level of a vehicle. The six levels are as follows:

		Level 0:		No driving automation. The human driver performs all driving tasks (steering, acceleration, braking, etc.);
		Level 1:		Driver assistance. The vehicle features a single automated system (e.g. it monitors speed through cruise control);
		Level 2:		Partial driving automation (e.g. ADAS). The vehicle can perform steering and acceleration. The human still monitors all tasks and can take control at any time;
		Level 3:		Conditional driving automation. The vehicle can perform most driving tasks, but human override is still required;

THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

The questions and answers below highlight only elected information set forth elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and only briefly address some commonly asked questions about the Extraordinary General Meeting and the proposals to be presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting, including with respect to the proposed Business Combination. The following questions and answers do not include all the information that may be important to our shareholders. We urge shareholders to carefully read this entire Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including the annexes and the other documents referred to herein, to fully understand the proposed Business Combination and the voting procedures for the Extraordinary General Meeting.

“We,” “us,” or “our” and “Company” in this section refers to Chenghe. Capitalized terms hereunder but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning as set forth under the section titled “Certain Defined Terms.”

We will hold the Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders to consider and vote upon these proposals. This Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and its annexes contain important information about the proposed Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the Extraordinary General Meeting. You should read this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and its annexes carefully and in their entirety.

The vote of shareholders Is important. Regardless of how many shares you own, you are encouraged to vote as soon as possible after carefully reviewing this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

Q: Why is the Company providing shareholders with the opportunity to vote on the Business Combination?

A: Pursuant to Chenghe Articles, we are required to provide Public Shareholders with an opportunity to have their shares redeemed for cash upon the consummation of our initial business combination, either in conjunction with a shareholder vote or tender offer. Due to the structure of the Business Combination, we are providing this opportunity in conjunction with a shareholder vote.

Q: What will happen to our securities upon consummation of the Business Combination?

A: SPAC Units and Public Shares are currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “CHEAU” and “CHEA.” On September 21, 2023, Nasdaq suspended trading of the SPAC Public Warrants due to SPAC’s failure to maintain a minimum of $1,000,000 in aggregate market value of its outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, as set forth in Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5452(b)(C). Nasdaq delisted the SPAC Public Warrants and filed a notification of removal from listing on October 12, 2023. Chenghe has not made application for the SPAC Public Warrants to be listed on the OTC markets, and Chenghe is not aware of any plan of CayCo to apply for the listing of CayCo Warrants on any stock exchange after the Closing. For more information, please see “Risk Factors — SPAC Public Warrants are delisted from Nasdaq.” Our securities will cease trading upon consummation of the Business Combination. TCO intends to apply for listing of CayCo Ordinary Shares on the Stock Exchange under the symbol “SELX,” to be effective upon consummation of the Business Combination. While trading on Stock Exchange is expected to begin on the first Business Day following the consummation of the Business Combination, there can be no assurance that CayCo Ordinary Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchange or that a viable and active trading market will develop.

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to a U.S. Holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and/or SPAC Warrants?

A: Subject to the limitations and qualifications described more fully under the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” it is intended by the parties to the Business Combination Agreement that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger qualify as a transfer of property described in Section 351 of the Code and (ii) the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. However, there are significant factual and legal uncertainties as to whether the Transactions qualify for such intended tax treatment, and no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position. No ruling has been, or will be, sought by Chenghe or TCO from the IRS with respect to the Business Combination and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the intended tax treatment or that a court would not sustain such a challenge.

The tax consequences of the Business Combination are complex and will depend on your particular circumstances. For a more detailed discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Business Combination for U.S. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and/or SPAC Warrants, see the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.” If you are a U.S. Holder whose SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and/or SPAC Warrants are exchanged in the Business Combination, you are urged to consult your tax advisor to determine the tax consequences thereof.

The summary above is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed discussion provided in the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Table of Contents

Q: Why is the Company proposing the Business Combination?

A: We were incorporated to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On May 2, 2022, we consummated the SPAC IPO of 11,500,000 SPAC Units at an offering price of $10.00 per SPAC Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the SPAC IPO, we consummated the sale of 7,750,000 warrants at pa price of $1.00 per warrant in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000. Following the closing of the SPAC IPO, an amount equal to $115,000,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the SPAC Units and SPAC Private Placement Warrants in the SPAC IPO was placed into the Trust Account. Since the SPAC IPO, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates.

On July 26, 2023, we held the Extension Meeting, at which our shareholders approved the Extension Proposals. In connection with the Extension Meeting, our shareholders holding 3,062,319 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their option to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $32,772,628.17 (approximately $10.70 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share) was released from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $90,299,208.49 remained in the Trust Account.

We believe that the Business Combination will provide our shareholders with an opportunity to participate in the ownership of a company with significant growth potential. See the section titled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No.1 — The Business Combination Proposal — SPAC Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination and Recommendation.”

Q: Did Chenghe Board obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Business Combination?

A: No. Chenghe Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of Chenghe Board and our management team in valuing TCO and will be assuming the risk that Chenghe Board may not have properly valued the business. However, our directors and officers have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries and have substantial experience with mergers and acquisitions. Furthermore, in analyzing the Business Combination, Chenghe Board conducted significant due diligence on TCO. Based on the foregoing, Chenghe Board had given due and proper consideration to all matters and things that are necessary or appropriate, including that the Business Combination was fair from a financial perspective to our shareholders and that TCO’s fair market value was at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts previously disbursed to the Company’s management for taxes and excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in the Trust Account), to enabled it to evaluate and reach an information conclusion as to the fairness and reasonableness of the Transactions. There can be no assurance, however, that Chenghe Board was correct in its assessment of the Business Combination. For a complete discussion of the factors utilized by Chenghe Board in approving the Business Combination, see the section titled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal.”

Q: Will projections that Chenghe Board considered when evaluating and recommending the Business Combination be realized?

A: In performing its analysis of TCO, Chenghe Board considered, among other things, and relied on certain information, including forecasts and financial projection prepared by, and at the direction of, the management of TCO. See the section titled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Summary of Financial and Valuation Analyses of TCO.” The unaudited financial projection is based on various assumptions, including, among other things, the increasing adoption of LiDAR and ADB technologies in the automotive industries, the efficient production ramp up and the successful development and launch of future products. However, the unaudited projected financial information is subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the unaudited projected financial information, including, among others, risks and uncertainties relating to TCO’s business, industry performance, the regulatory environment, and general business and economic conditions. For more information, see “Risk Factors — CayCo’s forecasts and projections are based upon assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by its management. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, CayCo’s actual operating results may differ materially and adversely from those forecasted or projected. ”

Q: Do I have redemption rights?

A: If you are a Public Shareholder, you have the right to demand that we redeem your Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the cash held in our Trust Account, calculated as of two (2) Business Days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. We sometimes refer to the right to demand redemption of the Public Shares as “redemption rights.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of his or her or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the Public Shares. Accordingly, all Public Shares in excess of 20% held by a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group,” will not be redeemed and converted into cash.

Besides, pursuant to Chenghe Articles, we shall not redeem Public Shares that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 following such redemptions.

Q: Will how I vote on the Business Combination affect my ability to exercise my redemption rights?

A: No. A Public Shareholder may exercise redemption rights regardless of whether it votes for or against the Business Combination Proposal or votes on such proposal at all, or if it is a shareholder on the Record Date. This means that any Public Shareholder holding Public Shares may exercise redemptions rights so long as it holds Public Shares as of the date it tenders the shares for redemption, regardless of whether it is entitled to vote on any of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals and regardless of whether it votes at all.

Q: How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A: If you are a Public Shareholder and wish to exercise your redemption rights, you must demand that we redeem your shares for cash and tender your Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting. You may tender your Public Shares by either delivering your share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to the transfer agent or by delivering your Public Shares to the transfer agent electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) System. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your Public Shares are properly tendered for redemption. Any Public Shareholder satisfying the requirements for exercising redemption rights will be entitled to a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (which, for illustrative purposes, was $10.98 per share, as of the Record Date), less any owed but unpaid taxes on the funds in the Trust Account and deferring underwriting fees. Such amount will be paid promptly upon consummation of the Business Combination. There are currently no owed but unpaid income taxes on the funds in the Trust Account.

Any request for redemption, once made by a Public Shareholder, may be withdrawn at any time up to the deadline for submitting redemption requests, which is January 31, 2024 (two (2) Business Days prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting), and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing. If you deliver your share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to our transfer agent and later decide prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting not to elect redemption, you may request that our transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the address listed at the end of this section or, if you hold your shares in “street name,” by contacting your bank, broker or other nominee and following their instructions to withdraw your request for redemption.

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights must be received by our transfer agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the vote taken on the Business Combination Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting. No demand for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms or Public Shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent.

If you are a Public Shareholder and you exercise your redemption rights validly, it will not result in loss of any SPAC Public Warrants that you may hold.

Table of Contents

Q: If I am a holder of the SPAC Public Warrants, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my warrants?

A: No. Warrant holders have no redemption rights with respect to such securities.

Q: Can the holders of Founder Shares redeem their Founder Shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination?

A: No. The holders of Founder Shares, our officers and other current directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares they may hold in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, pursuant to a letter agreement on April 27, 2022 entered in connection with SPAC IPO, and they did not, and are not expected to, receive any consideration in exchange for such waiver. As set forth in the letter agreement, the relevant parties agreed to waive their redemption rights in order to induce SPAC and the underwriters of SPAC IPO to enter into the IPO underwriting agreement and to proceed with the IPO.

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences to me if I exercise my redemption rights?

A: We expect that a U.S. Holder (as defined below in the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination”) that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as selling such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares resulting in the recognition of capital gain or loss. There may be certain circumstances in which the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares that such U.S. Holder owns or is deemed to own (including through the ownership of warrants) prior to and following the redemption. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the redemption depend on your particular facts and circumstances. In addition, the potential application of the “passive foreign investment company rules” may impact such tax consequences as described below in the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights to U.S. Holders — PFIC Considerations.” For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, please see the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.” We urge you to consult your own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights, including with respect to the application of the “passive foreign investment company” rules to any such exercise of redemption rights.

Q: Do I have appraisal rights if I object to the proposed Business Combination?

A: The Cayman Companies Act prescribes when shareholder appraisal rights will be available and sets the limitations on such rights. Where such rights are available, shareholders are entitled to receive fair value for their shares. However, regardless of whether such rights are or are not available, shareholders are still entitled to exercise the rights of redemption as set out herein, and Chenghe Board has determined that the redemption proceeds payable to shareholders who exercise such redemption rights represents the fair value of those shares.

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination under the Cayman Companies Act. Public Shareholders are entitled to give notice to Chenghe prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting that they wish to dissent to the Business Combination and to receive payment of fair market value for his, her or its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if they follow the procedures set out in the Cayman Companies Act.

Table of Contents

of the period set out in (ii) above or seven days following the date on which the plan of merger or consolidation is filed, whichever is later, the constituent company, the surviving company or the consolidated company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his, her or its shares at a price that the company determines is the fair value and if the company and the shareholder agree the price within 30 days following the date on which the offer was made, the company must pay the shareholder such amount; and (v) if the company and the shareholder fail to agree on a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30 day period expires, the company (and any dissenting shareholder) must file a petition with the Cayman Islands courts to determine the fair value and such petition must be accompanied by a list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the fair value of their shares have not been reached by the company. At the hearing of that petition, the court has the power to determine the fair value of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the company upon the amount determined to be the fair value. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the company may participate fully in all proceedings until the determination of fair value is reached. Public Shareholders who elect to exercise appraisal rights will lose their right to exercise their redemption rights as described herein.

Q: What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after consummation of the Business Combination?

A: The net proceeds of the SPAC IPO, together with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the warrants in a private placement to the Sponsor, equal in the aggregate to $115,000,000, were placed in the Trust Account immediately following the SPAC IPO. On July 26, 2023, we held the Extension Meeting, at which our shareholders approved the Extension Proposals. In connection with the Extension Meeting, our shareholders holding 3,062,319 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their option to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $32,772,628.17 (approximately $10.70 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share) was released from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $90,299,208.49 remained in the Trust Account. After consummation of the Business Combination, the funds in the Trust Account will be used to pay, on a pro rata basis, Public Shareholders who exercise redemption rights and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination (including deferred underwriting commissions). Any remaining cash will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Post-Closing Company.

Q: What happens if a substantial number of Public Shareholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?

A: Public Shareholders may vote in favor of the Business Combination and still exercise their redemption rights, although they are not required to vote in any way to exercise such redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shareholders are substantially reduced as a result of redemptions by Public Shareholders. To the extent that there are fewer public shares and public shareholders, the trading market for the ordinary shares of the Post-Closing Company may be less liquid than the market was for SPAC Public Shares prior to the Transactions, and the Post-Closing Company may not be able to meet the listing standards of a national securities exchange. In addition, to the extent of any redemptions, fewer funds from the Trust Account would be available to the Post-Closing Company following the consummation of the Business Combination.

In addition, Chenghe Articles provides that (i) the Business Combination will not be consummated if, either immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination, we would have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 after taking into account the redemption for cash of all Public Shares properly demanded to be redeemed by Public Shareholders and (ii) we shall not redeem Public Shares that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

Q: What ownership levels will current shareholders of Chenghe have after consummation of the Business Combination?

A: In connection with the Business Combination, Chenghe and TCO agreed on a fixed pre-money equity value of US$380 million for the Post-Closing Company. At the consummation of the TCO Restructuring, CayCo will issue and allot to each TCO Shareholder who agrees to participate in the TCO Restructuring in respective of each Company Share owned by such person, a number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that is no more than the Subscription Factor, which is the number resulting from dividing (x) the result of the quantity of US$380 million

Table of Contents

divided by US$10.00, by (y) the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares as at the time of calculation. Any increase in the number of TCO Shareholders who participate in the TCO Restructuring will increase in the number of CayCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the TCO Restructuring and at the consummation of the Business Combination. As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, none of CayCo, TCO and Chenghe has entered into any agreement with any investor in relation to the PIPE Investment.

Assuming none of the Public Shareholders demand redemption pursuant to the Chenghe Articles, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 60.50% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 16.92% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 13.43% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of Public Warrant will hold approximately 9.15% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

Assuming intermediate redemptions by Public Shareholders, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 64.85% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 18.14% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 7.20% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of Public Warrant will hold approximately 9.81% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

Assuming maximum redemptions by Public Shareholders, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 68.35% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 19.11% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 2.20% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of Public Warrant will hold approximately 10.34% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

The following table illustrates the ownership levels in the Post-Closing Company, assuming consummation of the Business Combination, the Company Acquisition Percentage reaching 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and assuming the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants, and no redemptions by Public Shareholders, 50% redemptions by Public Shareholders (the “Interim Redemption”) and the redemptions by Public Shareholders holding 7,213,618 Public shares, so that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities

Table of Contents

and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles (the “Maximum Redemption”), respectively. The amounts of percentage ownership and voting power will change if the actual facts differ from the assumptions.

(3) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination.

(4) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Private Placement Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination. As of the date of this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, the Sponsor has not extended any working capital loan to Chenghe, which may be convertible into private placement warrants at the option of the Sponsor. None of Chenghe, its directors and officers is aware of any intention to obtain any working capital loan from the Sponsor.

Q: What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?

A: There are a number of Closing Conditions, including among others, (i) the accuracy of representations and warranties to various standards, from no material qualifier to a material adverse effect qualifier, (ii) material compliance with pre-closing covenants, (iii) no material adverse effect for the Company, (iv) the Company Acquisition Percentage reaching at least 90.1%; (v) the consummation of the TCO Restructuring; (v) the delivery of customary closing certificates, (vi) the receipt of Taiwan IC Approval and such approval being effective, (vii) the receipt of all Third Party Consents, if any, (viii) the absence of a legal prohibition on consummating the transactions, (ix) approval by Chenghe’s and TCO’s shareholders, (x) approval of a listing application on the applicable Stock Exchange for newly issued shares, and (xi) Chenghe having at least US$5,000,001 of net tangible assets remaining after redemption. For a description of the Closing Conditions, see the section titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.”

Table of Contents

Q: What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?

A: If we do not complete the Business Combination for whatever reason, we would search for another target business with which to complete a business combination. If we do not complete the Business Combination or another business combination by the Extended Deadline, we must redeem 100% of the issued and outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to an amount then held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of outstanding Public Shares and, following such redemption, we will liquidate and dissolve. Our holders of the Founder Shares waived their redemption rights with respect to ordinary shares owned by them in the event a business combination is not effected in the required time period.

Q: How do our Sponsor, directors and officers intend to vote on the proposals?

A: The Sponsor, as well as our directors and officers and the chairman of our advisory board, beneficially own and are entitled to vote an aggregate of 25.4% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares prior to the Business Combination. These holders have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and all other proposals being presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting, and to not exercise redemption rights with respect to their shares.

Q: What interests do the Sponsor and our current directors and officers have in the Business Combination?

A: In considering the recommendation of Chenghe Board to vote in favor of the Business Combination, shareholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as shareholders, our Sponsor, directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other shareholders generally, which could cause them to benefit from and incentivize them to pursue a business combination with a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to non-redeeming shareholders rather than liquidate. Our directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination and did not believe that such interests would preclude them from approving the Business Combination or from recommending the Business Combination to shareholders, considering that these interests would be disclosed in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things:

• the fact that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board paid an aggregate of $25,000 for 2,857,000 Founder Shares, which will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination but will become worthless if a business combination is not consummated by the Extended Deadline. Based on the closing price for the Public Shares of $10.99 on the Nasdaq on December 20, 2023, the value of the Founder Shares would be $31,596,250;

• the fact that our Sponsor paid an aggregate of approximately $7,750,000 for its 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants to purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and that such SPAC Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by the Extended Deadline.;

• the fact that the Sponsor and certain of our officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisor board are anticipated to hold 16.92% of issued and outstanding shares of the Post-Closing Company immediately following the Business Combination (assuming no redemptions of our Public Shareholders and the exercise of SPAC Private Placement Warrants);

• the fact that, given the differential in the purchase price that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board paid for the Founder Shares and the purchase price that the Sponsor paid for the SPAC Private Placement Warrants as compared to the price of the Public Shares and SPAC Public Warrants and the substantial number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares that the Sponsor and these individuals will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor and these individuals can earn a positive return on their investment, even if Public Shareholders have a negative return on their investment;

• the fact that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board have agreed not to redeem any SPAC Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with the shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination pursuant to a letter agreement dated April 27, 2022 entered into between the insiders and Chenghe;

Table of Contents

• the fact that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board will lose their entire investment in us if an initial business combination is not consummated by the Extended Deadline. Our Sponsor, officers and directors and their respective affiliates have not incurred any out-of-pocket fees and expenses in relation to our initial business combination since the SPAC IPO;

• the fact that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to Founder Shares held by them if we fail to complete an initial business combination by the Extended Deadline;

• the fact that our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and chairman of the advisory board and their respective affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf, such as identifying and investing possible business targets and business combinations. However, if we fail to consummate a business combination within the required period, they will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement. Accordingly, we may not be able to reimburse these expenses if the Business Combination or another business combination is not consummated by the Extended Deadline;

• the right of our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and chairman of the advisory board to hold the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

• in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate a business combination by the Extended Deadline, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.30 per Public Share, or such lesser per-public share amount as is in the Trust Account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or claims of any third party (other than our independent public accountants) for services rendered or products sold to us, provided that such indemnification will not apply to any claims by a third party that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account, nor will it apply to any claims under indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act;

• the Sponsor (including its representatives and affiliates) and SPAC’s officers and directors are, or in the future may become, affiliated with entities that are engaged in similar business to SPAC. For example, Mr. Richard Qi Li also serves as a director and the chief executive officer of HH&L Acquisition Co, a NYSE-listed special purpose acquisition company. In addition, on October 6, 2023, Chenghe Investment I Limited (“Chenghe Sponsor I”), a Cayman Islands exempted company controlled by Mr. Richard Qi Li, acquired (i) 2,650,000 Class B ordinary shares of Chenghe Acquisition I Co. (formerly known as LatAmGrowth SPAC) (“Chenghe SPAC”), a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company, and (ii) 7,900,000 private placement warrants of Chenghe SPAC I, from LatAmGrowth Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and following such acquisition, Chenghe Sponsor I became the sponsor of Chenghe SPAC I, and appointed Ms. Anna Zhou as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Chenghe SPAC I, Dr. Shibin Wang as a director and the chairman of the board of director of Chenghe SPAC I, each of Mr. Ning Ma and Mr. Kwan Sun as an independent director of Chenghe SPAC I to replace the then-current directors and officers of Chenghe SPAC I. The Sponsor and its officers and directors are not prohibited from sponsoring, or otherwise becoming involved with, another blank check company prior to SPAC completing its initial business combination. SPAC’s officers and directors may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to SPAC, and the other entities to which they owe certain fiduciary or contractual duties. Accordingly, they may have had conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in SPAC’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to SPAC, subject to application fiduciary duties under Cayman Companies Act. SPAC MAA provide that SPAC renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any officer or director of SPAC. This waiver allows SPAC’s officers and directors to allocate opportunities based on a combination of the objectives and fundraising needs of the target, as well as the investment objectives of the entity. SPAC does not believe that the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine otherwise had a material impact on its search for an acquisition target.

• the fact that the Business Combination Agreement provides for the continued indemnification of some of our existing directors and officers and the continuation of our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

• the fact that we have entered into a registration rights agreement with our Sponsor, officers, directors, senior advisor and the chairman of our advisory board, which provides for customary registration rights to them and their permitted transferees.

Q: When do you expect the Business Combination to be completed?

A: It is currently anticipated that the Business Combination will be consummated promptly following the Extraordinary General Meeting, which is set for February 2, 2024; however, such meeting could be adjourned or postponed to a later date, as described above. The Closing is also subject to other customary closing conditions. Furthermore, the signing parties to the Business Combination Agreement will have the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement if the Business Combination is not consummated by May 21, 2024 (Hong Kong Time), subject to certain conditions and exceptions.

A: If you are a holder of record of Public Shares at the close of business on the Record Date, you may vote by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, including virtually by submitting a ballot through the web portal during the Extraordinary General Meeting webcast, or by submitting a proxy for the Extraordinary General Meeting. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying preaddressed postage paid envelope so that it is received no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the Extraordinary General Meeting (or, in the case of an adjournment, no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the adjourned meeting). If you hold your shares in “street name,” you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly voted and counted.

Q: If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

Shareholders of record also may revoke their proxy by sending a notice of revocation to our transfer agent, which must be received prior to the vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name,” you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to change your instructions on how to vote. If you hold your shares in “street name” and wish to virtually attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote through the web portal, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

Q: What constitutes a quorum for the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: A quorum is the minimum number of our ordinary shares that must be present to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Extraordinary General Meeting if one or more shareholders holding one third of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the meeting are represented at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person or by proxy. Abstentions will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. Broker non-votes will not count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to vote together as a single class on all matters to be considered at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Voting on all resolutions at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be conducted by way of a poll vote. Shareholders will have one vote for each ordinary share owned at the close of business on the Record Date.

Table of Contents

Q: What shareholder vote thresholds are required for the approval of each proposal brought before the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: Under Cayman Islands law and pursuant to Chenghe Articles, each of the Merger Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposals will require a special resolution, being the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares which are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting at which a quorum is present. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal will require an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote of shareholders holding a majority of the ordinary shares which are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting at which a quorum is present.

On July 26, 2023, we held the Extension Meeting, at which our shareholders approved the Extension Proposals. In connection with the Extension Meeting, our shareholders holding 3,062,319 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their option to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are issued and outstanding.

Therefore, in addition to shares held by the holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, assuming all issued and outstanding shares are voted on each proposal, we would need 4,666,784 Public Shares, or approximately 55.3% of the 8,437,681 Public Shares to be voted in favor of each of the Merger Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposals, and 2,781,341 Public Shares, or approximately 32.9% of the 8,437,681 Public Shares to be voted in favor of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.

Brokers are not entitled to vote on the aforementioned proposals absent voting instructions from the beneficial holder. Abstentions are considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute a vote cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of each of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals as a matter of Cayman Islands law. Broker non-votes do not count as votes cast.

Q: What happens if I fail to take any action with respect to the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: If you fail to take any action with respect to the Extraordinary General Meeting and the Business Combination is approved by our shareholders and consummated, you will become a shareholder of the Post-Closing Company.

If you fail to take any action with respect to the Extraordinary General Meeting and the Business Combination is not approved, you will continue to be a shareholder of Chenghe, and we will continue to search for another target business with which to complete an initial business combination. If we do not complete an initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, we must cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeem 100% of the issued and outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to an amount then held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), and as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve.

Q: What should I do with my share certificates?

A: Public Shareholders who do not elect to have their shares redeemed for a pro rata share of the Trust Account should wait for instructions from our transfer agent regarding what to do with their certificates. Public Shareholders who exercise their redemption rights must deliver their share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to our transfer agent or deliver their Public Shares electronically to our transfer agent using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting as described above. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your Public Shares are properly tendered for redemption.

Table of Contents

Q: What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A: Shareholders may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your shares.

Q: Who will solicit and pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting. We have engaged Morrow Sodali to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting. We have agreed to pay Morrow Sodali $20,000, plus disbursements, to reimburse the firm for its reasonable and documented costs and expenses and to indemnify the firm and its affiliates against certain claims, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses. We will also reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of Public Shares for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of Public Shares and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. Our directors and officers may also solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by mail, on the Internet or in person. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies.

Parties to the Business Combination

SPAC

SPAC is a blank check company incorporated on April 7, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving SPAC and one or more target businesses. For more information about SPAC, see the section entitled “Business of SPAC and Certain Information About SPAC.”

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain offering expenses of SPAC in exchange for 7,187,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares. On June 20, 2021 and on December 28, 2021, respectively, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to SPAC 1,437,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares for no consideration. On March 29, 2022, the Sponsor further surrendered and forfeited to SPAC 1,437,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares for no consideration. On March 30, 2022, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 177,439 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to SPAC’s independent directors and advisory board member, for their respective board and advisory services, in each case for no consideration, including 20,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to each of Kwan Sun, Robert Ewing and Ning Ma, 50,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to Kenneth Hitchner and 67,439 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to Dr. Zhiwei Liu. As of December 31, 2022, the Sponsor holds 2,697,561 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares.

On May 2, 2022, SPAC consummated the SPAC IPO of 11,500,000 SPAC Units, including the issuance of 1,500,000 SPAC Units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option. Each SPAC Unit consists of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, and one-half of one redeemable SPAC Public Warrant, with each SPAC Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The SPAC Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Concurrently with the closing of the SPAC IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000. Following the closing of the SPAC IPO, a total of $118,450,000 ($10.30 per SPAC Unit) of net proceeds of the SPAC IPO and certain of the proceeds of the private placement of warrants was placed in the Trust Account. The Trust Account is located in the United States with SPAC Transfer Agent acting as trustee, and may only be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended, the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less or in the money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.

On July 26, 2023, SPAC held the Extension Meeting, at which SPAC Shareholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and SPAC Class B Ordinary Share Amendment Proposal.

In connection with the Extension Meeting, SPAC Shareholders holding 3,062,319 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their option to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account, following which, 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares remained outstanding, approximately $32,772,628.17 (approximately $10.70 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares) was released from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $90,299,208.49 remained in the Trust Account. On each of August 8, 2023 and September 9, 2023, $100,000 was deposited into the Trust Account as Contribution, respectively.

SPAC Units and SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are traded on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “CHEAU” and “CHEA” respectively. On September 21, 2023, Nasdaq suspended trading of the SPAC Public Warrants due to SPAC’s failure to maintain a minimum of $1,000,000 in aggregate market value of its outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, as set forth in Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5452(b)(C). Nasdaq delisted the SPAC Public Warrants and filed a notification of removal from listing on October 12, 2023. Chenghe has not made any application to list the SPAC Public Warrants

on the OTC markets, and Chenghe is not aware of any plan of CayCo to apply to list CayCo Warrant on any stock exchange after the Closing.

TCO

TCO has historically focused on laser applied modules and their components, which are used in solid-state light source projectors, car headlights, and sensors. TCO has also developed laser light source for various applications including searchlights and laser stage lights. TCO has recently specialized in providing key semiconductor chips, components and solutions for solid-state light detecting and ranging (LiDAR) and adaptive driving beam (ADB) headlights that meet the automotive market standards, such as AEC-Q100, ISO 26262, and IATF 16949. TCO aims to offer crucial chips and system solutions with good performance, cost-efficiency, and automotive-grade reliability. TCO believes that its LiDAR and ADB products may empower the implementation of large-scale advanced driver assistance systems and self-driving technologies.

With strategically positioned offices at Central Taiwan Science Park and Hsin Chu Science Park campuses, TCO actively fosters collaboration with semiconductor experts and develop technologies leveraging the robust semiconductor supply chain in Taiwan. TCO, as a Tier-2 supplier, offers a holistic and complete solution for OEMs and Tier-1 partners engaged in the development and marketing of autonomous vehicles for the passenger car market and other pertinent sectors, such as robotaxi, drones, shuttles, and commercial trucks. Drawing upon breakthroughs in core components such as OPA/VCSEL/FMCW/ASIC, TCO develops distinctive LiDAR and ADB solutions, which have, through TCO’s collaboration with National Chung Hsing University (“NCHU”)’s collaboration platform, led to successful partnerships with two renowned leading ODM/OEM and Tier-1 partners, namely Foxconn and Pegatron. Moreover, TCO believes that its innovative solutions can be extended to other industries that may benefit from higher level of automation, such as drones, security, and landscape mapping.

TCO has developed a research partnership with a team at NCHU led by Dr. Cheng since 2015. With the support of the NCHU team, TCO developed its distinctive LiDAR and ADB solutions. Due to the strength of its products, TCO entered into an agreement with NCHU and Professor Chun-Nien Liu on November 4, 2022 to provide pivotal chips and total solutions for high-performance solid-state LiDAR and ADB smart vehicle lighting systems for the Foxconn’s Mobility In Harmony Open Electric Vehicle (MIH) Platform. TCO therefore is connected to the emerging electric vehicle markets via Foxconn’s MIH Platform.

Foxconn’s MIH Platform aims to become a pioneering ecosystem in integrating LiDAR for Level 3 autonomous driving with the ultimate goal of commercializing its electric vehicles (EVs) globally. Thus, TCO’s close collaboration through the MIH Platform with Foxconn and its close partner, ZF Friedrichshafen AG (“ZF Group”), will position it at the front line of the development of EVs.

In addition, through NCHU, TCO will also provide customized solid-state LiDAR and ADB total solutions to Pegatron. Pegatron is a Tier-1 supplier to the EV market of the United States, whose existing customers include Tesla and other renowned EV manufacturers.

TCO also plans to leverage Taiwan’s mature semiconductor vertical supply chain to facilitate production of the chipsets used in TCO’s LiDAR and ADB productions. TCO plans to utilize the strong manufacturing capability of Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturers. The finished products will be packaged and assembled inhouse at TCO into its LiDAR and ADB products. This process aims to create a vertical production flow, thus making low-cost, high-performance solid-state LiDAR and ADB headlight a tangible commercial prospect.

TCO envisions a future where the integration of Taiwan’s mature semiconductor vertical supply chain becomes a global trend in the electric vehicle market. This integration, fostered through TCO’s collaboration with partner customers, paves the way for low-cost, high-performance solid-state LiDAR to emerge as a tangible and compelling

Ownership of CayCo Post-Closing

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Company Shareholders and SPAC Shareholders will become CayCo Shareholders.

As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, none of CayCo, TCO and SPAC has entered into any agreement with any investor in relation to any PIPE Investment.

Assuming the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company Acquisition Percentage reaching 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants, on a fully diluted basis, the following tables illustrate the varying ownership levels of CayCo Ordinary Shares after the Business Combination under three scenarios: (i) no redemptions by SPAC Shareholders, (ii) 50% of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares have been redeemed, (iii) maximum number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares has been redeemed so that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles.

• Proposal No. 4 — The Articles Amendment Proposals — to consider and vote upon, as special resolutions, two separate proposals to approve, with effect from the effective time of the Merger:

(a) the change of name of Chenghe from “Chenghe Acquisition Co.” to “SEMILUX LTD.”; and

Table of Contents

Please see the sections entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders,” “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal,” “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 2 — The Merger Proposal,” “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 3 — The Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal,” “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 4 — The Articles Amendment Proposals,” and “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 5 — The Adjournment Proposal” for more information on the foregoing proposals.

Date, Time and Place of SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting

The SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting will be held on February 2, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time, at the office of White & Case LLP at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020, and via live webcast at: https://www.cstproxy.com/chengheacquisition/sm2024, or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the SPAC Shareholder Proposals.

Voting Securities, Record Date

SPAC Shareholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting if they owned SPAC Ordinary Shares at the close of business on December 20, 2023, which is the Record Date for the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. SPAC Shareholders will have one vote for each SPAC Ordinary Share owned at the close of business on the Record Date. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the Record Date, there were 11,312,681 SPAC Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, of which 8,437,681 were held by Public Shareholders with the rest being held by the Sponsor and certain of SPAC’s directors, officers and chairman of advisory board.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to SPAC MAA, holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may demand that SPAC redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated; provided that SPAC shall not make such repurchases if it has less than $5,000,001 of net tangible assets following such repurchases and that SPAC shall not consummate the Business Combination if immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, the Business Combination, SPAC has less than $5,000,001 net tangible assets (for the avoidance of doubt, the consummation of the Business Combination is still subject to the satisfaction of other Closing Conditions unless waived, if applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, together with any affiliate of his or her or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if they deliver their share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to the SPAC Transfer Agent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares do not need to affirmatively vote on the Business Combination Proposal or be a holder of such shares as of the Record Date to exercise redemption rights. If the Business Combination is not consummated, these shares will not be converted into cash. If a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares properly demands conversion, delivers his, her or its share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to SPAC Transfer Agent as described above, and the Business Combination is consummated, SPAC will convert each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share into a full pro rata portion of the Trust Account, calculated as of two (2) Business Days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. If a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercises his, her or its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash and will not become a CayCo Shareholder. See the section entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed for the redemption of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

Appraisal Rights

The Cayman Companies Act prescribes when shareholder appraisal rights will be available and sets the limitations on such rights. Where such rights are available, shareholders are entitled to receive fair value for their shares. However, regardless of whether such rights are or are not available, shareholders are still entitled to exercise the rights of redemption as set out herein, and the SPAC Board has determined that the redemption proceeds payable to shareholders who exercise such redemption rights represents the fair value of those shares.

Table of Contents

Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination under the Cayman Companies Act. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to give notice to SPAC prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting that they wish to dissent to the Business Combination and to receive payment of fair market value for his, her or its SPAC Ordinary Shares if they follow the procedures set out in the Cayman Companies Act.

In essence, that procedure is as follows: (i) the shareholder must give his/her/its written objection to the merger or consolidation to the constituent company before the vote on the merger or consolidation, including a statement that the shareholder proposes to demand payment for his shares if the merger or consolidation is authorized by the vote; (ii) within 20 days following the date on which the merger or consolidation is approved by the shareholders, the constituent company must give written notice to each shareholder who made a written objection; (iii) a shareholder must within 20 days following receipt of such notice from the constituent company, give the constituent company a written notice of his/her/its intention to dissent, including, among other details, a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares; (iv) within seven days following the date of the expiration of the period set out in (ii) above or seven days following the date on which the plan of merger or consolidation is filed, whichever is later, the constituent company, the surviving company or the consolidated company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his, her or its shares at a price that the company determines is the fair value and if the company and the shareholder agree the price within 30 days following the date on which the offer was made, the company must pay the shareholder such amount; and (v) if the company and the shareholder fail to agree on a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30 day period expires, the company (and any dissenting shareholder) must file a petition with the Cayman Islands courts to determine the fair value and such petition must be accompanied by a list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the fair value of their shares have not been reached by the company. At the hearing of that petition, the court has the power to determine the fair value of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the company upon the amount determined to be the fair value. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the company may participate fully in all proceedings until the determination of fair value is reached.

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares who elect to exercise appraisal rights will lose their right to exercise their redemption rights as described herein.

Recommendations of SPAC’s Board of Directors to SPAC Shareholders

The SPAC Board has determined that each of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals is fair to and in the best interest of SPAC and its shareholders and recommended that SPAC Shareholders vote “FOR” each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Merger Proposal, the Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposals, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if presented.

Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination and Recommendations

The SPAC Board, in evaluating the transaction with TCO, consulted with its legal counsel and financial and other advisors. In reaching its decision (i) that the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, are advisable, fair to and in the best interests of, SPAC and its shareholders, and (ii) to recommend that the shareholders approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, including the Business Combination, the SPAC Board considered and evaluated a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the factors discussed below.

Before reaching its decision, the SPAC Board reviewed the results of management’s due diligence, which included:

• research on industry trends, competitive landscape and other industry factors;

• benchmarking versus key competitors on historical financial and operational performance;

• extensive meetings and calls with TCO management team and representatives regarding operations, major suppliers and financial prospectus, among other customary due diligence matters;

• review of TCO’s material business contracts and certain other legal and commercial diligence;

Table of Contents

• review of TCO’s business model and historical financial statements, among other financial information; and

• discussions with external advisors and review reports related to legal diligence prepared by external advisors.

In light of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the SPAC Board did not consider it practicable to, and did not attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that the SPAC Board considered in reaching its determination and supporting its decision. The SPAC Board viewed its decision as being based on all of the information available and the factors presented to and considered by the SPAC Board. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. The SPAC Board was conscious of the fact that there could be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as discussed in further detail below. This explanation of the SPAC Board’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section are forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

In approving the Business Combination, the SPAC Board determined not to obtain a fairness opinion. The officers and directors of SPAC have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries and they have substantial experience with mergers and acquisitions. The SPAC Board had given due and proper consideration to all matters and things that are necessary or appropriate, including but not limited to whether the Business Combination was fair from a financial perspective to the SPAC Shareholders and the fair market value of TCO is at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in the Trust Account), to enable it to evaluate and reach an informed conclusion as to the fairness and reasonableness of the Transactions.

SPAC considered a number of factors pertaining to the Business Combination as generally supporting its decision to enter into the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. The SPAC Board also considered a variety of uncertainties and risks and other potentially negative factors concerning the Business Combination.

The SPAC Board concluded that the potential benefits that it expected SPAC and its shareholders to achieve as a result of the Business Combination outweighed the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination. Accordingly, the SPAC Board determined that the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination contemplated therein were advisable, fair to and in the best interests of SPAC and its shareholders. See the section entitled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — SPAC Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination and Recommendations.”

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

In considering the recommendation of the SPAC Board to vote in favor of the Business Combination, shareholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as shareholders, the Sponsor, SPAC’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other SPAC Shareholders generally, which could cause them to benefit from and incentivize them to pursue a business combination with a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to non-redeeming shareholders rather than liquidate. SPAC’s directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination and did not believe that such interests would preclude them from approving the Business Combination or from recommending the Business Combination to SPAC Shareholders, considering that these interests would be disclosed in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. SPAC Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things:

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders paid an aggregate of $25,000 for 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, which will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination but will become worthless if a business combination is not consummated by SPAC Termination Date. Based on the average of the high ($10.99 per share) and low ($10.99 per share) prices for the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on December 20, 2023, the value of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares would be $31,596,250;

Table of Contents

• the fact that the Sponsor paid an aggregate of approximately $7,750,000 for its 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants to purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and that such SPAC Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated by the SPAC Termination Date;

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders are anticipated to hold 16.92% of issued and outstanding shares of CayCo immediately following the Business Combination (assuming no redemptions of holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and the exercise of SPAC Private Placement Warrants);

• the fact that given the differential in the purchase price that SPAC Initial Shareholders paid for the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and the purchase price that the Sponsor paid for the SPAC Private Placement Warrants as compared to the price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants and the substantial number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares that the SPAC Initial Shareholders will receive upon conversion of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants, the SPAC Initial Shareholders can earn a positive return on their investment, even if holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares have a negative return on their investment;

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders have agreed not to redeem any SPAC Ordinary Shares held by them in connection with the shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination pursuant to a letter agreement dated April 27, 2022 entered into with SPAC;

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders will lose their entire investment in SPAC if an initial business combination is not consummated by the SPAC Termination Date. The SPAC Initial Shareholders and their respective affiliates have not incurred any out-of-pocket fees and expenses in relation to the initial business combination since the SPAC IPO, except that, in connection with the Extension, pursuant to the SPAC MAA, the Sponsor shall deposit for each monthly extension beyond August 2, 2023 an amount equal to $100,000 into the Trust Account as a loan that will not bear interest and repayable by SPAC upon consummation of an initial business combination, which will be forgiven if SPAC is unable to consummate an initial business combination except to the extent of any funds held outside of the Trust Account;

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by them if SPAC fails to complete an initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date;

• the fact that the SPAC Initial Shareholders and their respective affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on SPAC’s behalf, such as identifying and investing possible business targets and business combinations. However, if SPAC fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, they will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement. Accordingly, SPAC may not be able to reimburse these expenses if the Business Combination or another business combination is not completed by the SPAC Termination Date;

• the right of the SPAC Initial Shareholders to hold the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

• in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account upon the failure of SPAC to consummate a business combination by the SPAC Termination Date, the Sponsor has agreed to indemnify SPAC to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, or such lesser per-public share amount as is in the Trust Account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which SPAC has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or claims of any third party (other than its independent public accountants) for services rendered or products sold to SPAC, provided that such indemnification will not apply to any claims by a third party that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account, nor will it apply to any claims under indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act;

special purpose acquisition company. In addition, on October 6, 2023, Chenghe Sponsor I, acquired (i) 2,650,000 Class B ordinary shares of Chenghe SPAC I, a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company, and (ii) 7,900,000 private placement warrants of Chenghe SPAC I, from LatAmGrowth Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and following such acquisition, Chenghe Sponsor I became the sponsor of Chenghe SPAC I, and appointed Ms. Anna Zhou as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Chenghe SPAC I, Dr. Shibin Wang as a director and the chairman of the board of director of Chenghe SPAC I, each of Mr. Ning Ma and Mr. Kwan Sun as an independent director of Chenghe SPAC I to replace the then-current directors and officers of Chenghe SPAC I. The Sponsor and its officers and directors are not prohibited from sponsoring, or otherwise becoming involved with, another blank check company prior to SPAC completing its initial business combination. SPAC’s officers and directors may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to SPAC, and the other entities to which they owe certain fiduciary or contractual duties. Accordingly, they may have had conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in SPAC’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to SPAC, subject to application fiduciary duties under Cayman Companies Act. SPAC MAA provide that SPAC renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any officer or director of SPAC. This waiver allows SPAC’s officers and directors to allocate opportunities based on a combination of the objectives and fundraising needs of the target, as well as the investment objectives of the entity. SPAC does not believe that the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine otherwise had a material impact on its search for an acquisition target.

• the fact that the Business Combination Agreement provides for the continued indemnification of SPAC’s existing directors and officers and the continuation of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination; and

• the fact that SPAC has entered into a registration rights agreement with the SPAC Initial Shareholders, which provides for customary registration rights to them and their permitted transferees.

Comparison of Rights of CayCo Shareholders and SPAC Shareholders

If the Business Combination is successfully completed, SPAC Shareholders will become CayCo Shareholders and their rights as shareholders will be governed by CayCo’s constitutional documents. Please see the section entitled “Comparison of Rights of CayCo Shareholders and Chenghe Shareholders” for more information.

Emerging Growth Company

CayCo is, and consequently, following the Business Combination, will be, an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, post-Closing, CayCo will be eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in their periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find CayCo’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for CayCo’s securities and the prices of CayCo’s securities may be more volatile.

Post-Closing, CayCo will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the SPAC IPO, (b) in which CayCo has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which CayCo is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the CayCo’s common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last Business Day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter; and (ii) the date on which CayCo has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Foreign Private Issuer

CayCo is a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act and, as such, CayCo is permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country in lieu of the corporate governance standards of the Stock Exchange applicable to U.S. domestic companies. For example, CayCo is not required to have a majority of the board consisting of independent directors nor have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors. CayCo intends to continue to follow its home country’s corporate governance practices as long as it remains a foreign private issuer. As a result, CayCo’s shareholders may not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of U.S. domestic companies that are subject to corporate governance requirements of the Stock Exchange. As a foreign private issuer, CayCo is also subject to reduced disclosure requirements and are exempt from certain provisions of the U.S. securities rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers such as the rules regulating solicitation of proxies and certain insider reporting and short-swing profit rules.

Risk Factor Summary

In evaluating the proposals set forth in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, you should carefully read this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including the annexes, and especially consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in that section, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on (i) SPAC’s ability to complete the Business Combination, and (ii) the business, cash flows, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of CayCo following consummation of the Business Combination. Such risks include, but are not limited to the following. The “Company” used in the section entitled “Risk Factors” refers to TCO.

Risks Related to CayCo and the Company’s Business

• The Company has incurred operating losses historically and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses at least for the near and medium term.

• The Company expects to incur research and development costs and devote significant resources to developing new products, which could significantly reduce its profitability and may never result in revenue to the Company.

• The Company is creating innovative technology by designing and developing unique components. The high price of or low yield in these components may affect the Company’s ability to sell at competitive prices, or may lead to losses.

• The Company’s LiDAR products are substantially dependent on its relationship with the MIH Platform and its relationship with Foxconn, and its business could be materially and adversely affected if the MIH Platform was terminated.

• The period of time from prototype design to implementation is long and the Company is subject to the risks of cancellation or postponement of contracts or unsuccessful implementation.

• If market adoption of ADB or LiDAR for autonomous vehicles does not continue to develop, or develops more slowly than the Company expects, its business will be adversely affected.

• The Company targets many customers that are large companies with substantial negotiating power, exacting product standards and potentially competitive internal solutions. If the Company is unable to sell its products to these customers, its prospects and results of operations will be adversely affected.

• Adverse conditions in the automotive industry or the global economy more generally could have adverse effects on the Company’s results of operations.

• The Company operates in a highly competitive market against a large number of both established competitors and new market entrants, and some market participants have substantially greater resources than the Company.

• The Company’s success will be dependent upon its ability to maintain relationships with existing suppliers who are critical and necessary to the output and production of its vehicles and to create relationships with new suppliers.

Table of Contents

• CayCo’s forecasts and projections are based upon assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by its management. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, CayCo’s actual operating results may differ materially and adversely from those forecasted or projected.

Risks Related to Chenghe and the Business Combination

• Chenghe’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that express substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a “going concern.” Chenghe may not have sufficient funds to consummate the Business Combination.

• The Business Combination remains subject to conditions that Chenghe cannot control, and if such conditions are not satisfied or otherwise waived, the Business Combination may not be consummated.

• The Business Combination may be delayed or terminated if the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau fails to grant the relevant IC approval timely or at all.

• CayCo may fail to acquire sufficient shares of TCO, and the Business Combination may be delayed or terminated.

• Because TCO is not conducting an underwritten offering of its securities, no underwriter has conducted due diligence of TCO’s business, operations or financial condition or reviewed the disclosure in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

• Chenghe and TCO may not be able to obtain Transaction Financing in connection with the Business Combination.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully review and consider the following risk factors and the other information contained in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including the ﬁnancial statements and notes to the ﬁnancial statements included herein, in evaluating the Business Combination and the SPAC Shareholder Proposals to be voted on at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. The risks discussed herein have been identiﬁed based on an evaluation of the historical risks faced by the Company and the SPAC and relate to current expectations as to future risks that may result from the Business Combination. Certain of the following risk factors apply to the business and operations of the Company and will also apply to the business and operations of CayCo following the completion of the Business Combination. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may adversely affect the ability to complete or realize the anticipated beneﬁts of the Business Combination, and may have a material adverse effect on the business, cash ﬂows, ﬁnancial condition and results of operations of CayCo following the Business Combination. This could cause the trading price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares, the SPAC Units, the SPAC Warrants, or the CayCo Warrants to decline, perhaps signiﬁcantly, and you therefore may lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in conjunction with the other information included in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including matters addressed in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Company Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “SPAC Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the ﬁnancial statements of the Company, the ﬁnancial statements of SPAC and notes to the ﬁnancial statements included herein. The risks discussed below are not exhaustive and are based on certain assumptions made by CayCo, SPAC and the Company which later may prove to be incorrect or incomplete. Investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to the business, ﬁnancial condition and prospects of the Company, SPAC and CayCo. Each of CayCo, SPAC and the Company may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to it, or that are currently deemed immaterial, which may also impair its business or ﬁnancial condition. The “Company” in this section refers to TCO.

Risks Related to CayCo and the Company’s Business

The Company has incurred operating losses historically and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses at least for the near and medium term.

The Company incurred a net operating loss of NTD 26,319,000 (US$857,017) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and a net operating loss of NTD 19,369,000 (US$ 628,863.636) for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company believes it will continue to incur operating and net losses each quarter in the foreseeable future. Even if the Company achieves profitability, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain profitability in the future. The Company’s potential profitability is particularly dependent upon the continued adoption of ADB technology and LiDAR technology by the automotive industry, continued support from the Company’s research partners, the market acceptance of the electric vehicle platform developed by Foxconn, any of which may not occur at the levels the Company currently anticipates or at all. The Company may need to raise additional financing through loans, securities offerings or additional investments in order to fund its ongoing operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such additional financing or that it will be able to obtain such additional financing on favorable terms.

The Company’s evolving business model makes evaluating its business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment.

The Company has historically specialized in research, development and production optical components, and has only been focused on developing ADB products and LiDAR products for autonomous driving systems since 2019. This relatively limited operating history in the ADB and LiDAR markets makes it difficult to evaluate the Company’s future prospects and the risks and challenges it may encounter.

In addition, the Company’s business model may undergo additional changes or differ from other manufacturers such that instead of manufacturing and selling complete ADB or LiDAR products, it may only sell certain components of ADB or LiDAR products, or only provide integrated circuit design services to manufacturing partners, which will then assemble the ADB or LiDAR solution in accordance with the Company’s design and sell the solution to the OEMs. To the extent that its business model does change, this will also render its historical operating history and financial data less useful in assessing its future prospects.

If the Company fails to address the risks and difficulties that it faces, including those described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. The Company has encountered in the past, and will encounter in the future, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies with limited operating histories in rapidly changing industries. If the Company’s assumptions regarding these risks and uncertainties, which it uses to plan and operate its business, are incorrect or change, or if it does not address these risks successfully, its results of operations could differ materially from its expectations and its business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The Company expects to incur research and development costs and devote significant resources to developing new products, which could significantly reduce its profitability and may never result in revenue to the Company.

The Company’s research and development expenses were approximately NTD 40,921,000 (US$1,476,226.55), NTD 26,845,000 (US$874,000), NTD 19,083,000 (US$621,393) and NTD 18,442,000 (US$600,521) for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022 and the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The decline in research and development expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to some adjustments to research and development schedule during the Covid-19 lock down and various public health social distancing rules. This led to delays in the research and development progress of certain ICs, LiDAR and ADB solutions by about 6 months. The Company expects to continue incur significant research and development costs going forward to conduct further research, development and tests on its products to further progress its efforts to commercialize these products.

The Company’s future growth depends on introducing new products that achieve successful commercialization by OEM partners. For example, the Company is designing the ADB and LiDAR solutions for the open electric vehicle platform of Foxconn’s Mobility In Harmony Platform (the “MIH Platform”). If the Company is unable to introduce new products and services or enhance its existing products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner, it fails to introduce products and services that meet market demand, its products fail to meet the technical, durability, cost-effectiveness requirement of the potential OEM partners, or it does not successfully develop products that is suitable for commercialization, it may lose its competitive position, its products may become obsolete, and its business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected.

Developing the Company’s products is expensive, and the investment in product development may involve a long payback cycle, may not yield the expected returns or may not be recovered at all. The Company’s results of operations will be impacted by the timing and size of these investments. These investments may take several years to generate positive returns, if ever.

Additionally, future market share gains may take longer than planned and cause the Company to incur significant costs. Difficulties in any of the Company’s new product development efforts or its efforts to enter adjacent markets could adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company is creating innovative technology by designing and developing unique components. The high price of or low yield in these components may affect the Company’s ability to sell at competitive prices, or may lead to losses.

The Company’s ADB or LiDAR products integrates technological complex components, which requires precision in manufacturing and assembly. Many of these components are complex and contain multiple sophisticated elements. Volume production of these elements may require extreme precision and present challenges to their manufacturers. This can lead to increased costs of production of the components which the manufacturers may pass on to the Company or a production run may yield fewer usable components than what was desired or anticipated. Any such increased components cost or suboptimal yield in production of the Company’s components may significantly increase the Company’s production costs and thereby decrease its margins and potentially increase or cause losses for the Company.

The Company’s LiDAR products are substantially dependent on its relationship with the MIH Platform and its relationship with Foxconn, and its business could be materially and adversely affected if the MIH Platform was terminated.

The success of the Company’s LiDAR products is substantially dependent on its relationship with the MIH Platform. The Company has been selected as one of the suppliers of ADB and LiDAR solutions to the open electric vehicle platform of the MIH Platform. The Company’s products are currently in testing and validation phase with MIH Platform, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain its relationship with the MIH Platform or Foxconn and/or

Table of Contents

secure orders from the MIH Platform or Foxconn. If the MIH Platform terminates or significantly alters or delays its open electric vehicle platform and/or alters its relationship with the Company in a manner that is adverse to the Company, the Company business and its prospects would be materially adversely affected.

The period of time from prototype design to implementation is long and the Company is subject to the risks of cancellation or postponement of contracts or unsuccessful implementation.

Prospective customers, including those in the automotive industry, generally must make significant commitments of resources to test and validate the Company’s products and confirm that they can integrate with other technologies before including them in any particular system, product or model. The development cycles of the Company’s products with new customers varies widely depending on the application, market, customer and the complexity of the product. In the automotive market, for example, this development cycle can be five to seven years. As a result of these lengthy development cycles, the Company spends significant time and resources to have its products selected by automotive OEMs and their suppliers for use in a particular vehicle model, which is known as a design win. If the Company does not achieve a design win with respect to a particular vehicle model, it may not have an opportunity to supply its products to the automotive OEM for that vehicle model for a period of many years. If the Company’s products are not selected by an automotive OEM or its suppliers for one vehicle model or if the Company’s products are not successful in that vehicle model, it is unlikely that its product will be deployed in other vehicle models of that OEM. Further, the Company is subject to the risk that customers cancel or postpone implementation of its technology, as well as that it will not be able to integrate its technology successfully into a larger system with other sensing modalities. If the Company fails to win a significant number of vehicle models from one or more of automotive OEMs or their suppliers, or its customers cancel or postpone implementation, its business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

If market adoption of ADB or LiDAR for autonomous vehicles does not continue to develop, or develops more slowly than the Company expects, its business will be adversely affected.

The Company has been and expects to continue to be significantly focused on the automotive applications of its ADB and LiDAR products. Despite the fact that the automotive industry has engaged in considerable effort to research and test ADB and LiDAR products for ADAS and autonomous driving applications, there is no guaranty that the automotive industry will introduce LiDAR products in commercially available vehicles.

LiDAR products are still relatively new in the market and it is possible that other sensor technologies and devices, based on new or existing technology or a combination of technologies, will achieve acceptance or leadership in the ADAS and autonomous driving industries. Even if LiDAR products are used in initial generations of autonomous driving technology and certain ADAS products, the Company cannot guarantee that LiDAR products will be designed into or included in subsequent generations of such commercialized technology. In addition, the Company expects that initial generations of autonomous vehicles will be focused on limited applications, such as robo-taxis, and that mass market adoption of autonomous technology may lag behind these initial applications significantly. The speed of market growth for ADAS or autonomous vehicles is difficult if not impossible to predict, and it is more difficult to predict this market’s future growth in light of the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and major geopolitical events including the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine. If commercialization of LiDAR products is not successful, or not as successful as the Company or the market expects, or if other sensing modalities gain acceptance by developers of autonomous driving systems or ADAS, automotive OEMs, regulators and safety organizations or other market participants by the time autonomous vehicle technology achieves mass market adoption, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

ADB products are still relatively new in the market and it is possible that other more established manufacturers in the car light field develop their proprietary ADB products, based on new or existing technology or a combination of technologies, that receive more acceptance in the ADAS and autonomous driving industries. Currently, installation of ADB products is limited to luxury and high-end vehicles due to the costs of each system installed. The Company cannot guarantee that ADB products will be adopted by automotive manufacturers for vehicles in lower price ranges, or other optical systems will gain acceptance by automotive manufacturers. If ADB products are not widely adopted by the automotive industry, or not as widely as the Company or the market expects, or if other optical systems gain acceptance by developers of autonomous driving systems or ADAS, automotive OEMs, regulators and safety organizations or other market participants, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

The Company targets many customers that are large companies with substantial negotiating power, exacting product standards and potentially competitive internal solutions. If the Company is unable to sell its products to these customers, its prospects and results of operations will be adversely affected.

Many of the Company’s customers and potential customers are large, multinational companies with substantial negotiating power relative to the Company and, in some instances, may have internal solutions that are competitive to the Company’s products. These large, multinational companies also have significant resources, which may allow them to acquire or develop competitive technologies either independently or in partnership with others. Accordingly, even after investing significant resources to develop a product, the Company may not secure a design win or may not be able to commercialize a product on profitable terms. If the Company’s products are not selected by these large companies or if these companies develop or acquire competitive technology or negotiate terms that are disadvantageous to the Company, it will have an adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Adverse conditions in the automotive industry or the global economy more generally could have adverse effects on the Company’s results of operations.

The Company’s business is directly affected by and significantly dependent on business cycles and other factors affecting the global automobile industry and global economy generally. Automotive production and sales are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences, changes in interest rates and credit availability, consumer confidence, fuel costs, fuel availability, environmental impact, governmental incentives and regulatory requirements and political volatility, especially in energy-producing countries and growth markets. In addition, automotive production and sales can be affected by automotive manufacturers’ ability to continue operating in response to challenging economic conditions and in response to regulatory requirements and other factors. The volume of automotive production in North America, Europe, the PRC, Japan and rest of the world has fluctuated, sometimes significantly, from year to year, and the Company expects any such fluctuations to give rise to fluctuations in the demand for its products. Any significant adverse change in any of these factors may result in a reduction in automotive sales and production by automotive manufacturers and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company operates in a highly competitive market against a large number of both established competitors and new market entrants, and some market participants have substantially greater resources than the Company.

The markets for sensing technology applicable to autonomous solutions across numerous industries and intelligent ADB systems are highly competitive.

The Company’s future success will depend on its ability to maintain its lead by continuing to develop advanced ADB and LiDAR technology in a timely manner and to stay ahead of existing and new competitors. The Company’s competitors are numerous and they compete with it directly by offering ADB and/or LiDAR products and indirectly by attempting to solve some of the same challenges with different technology. The Company faces competition from camera and radar companies, other developers of LiDAR products, car lamp manufacturers, automotive manufacturers and other technology and automotive supply companies, some of which have significantly greater resources than it does. Some examples of the Company’s competitors for its LiDAR products include Hesai, Innoviz, Velodyne and Luminar. Some examples of the Company’s competitors for its ADB products include Xinyu Co., Ltd. and Osram Licht AG. In the automotive market, the Company’s competitors have commercialized non-LiDAR-based ADAS technology which has achieved market adoption, strong brand recognition and may continue to improve. Other automotive manufacturers are working towards develop LiDAR products and/or ADB products and either by themselves, or with a publicly announced partner, have substantial financial, marketing, research and development and other resources.

The automotive market is highly competitive, and Company may not be successful in competing in this industry.

The automotive industry is highly competitive. Businesses within the industry compete on many factors, including pricing, brand recognition, product quality and designs and manufacturing scale and efficiency.

The Company competes for sales of its products with other established automotive component suppliers and new entrants. Some of the Company’s competitors may have established market positions, well known brands and relationships with customers and suppliers. Competition for the Company could intensify in the future due to continuing globalization of the automotive industry, new market entrants and consolidation in the worldwide automotive industry.

Table of Contents

The Company expects that more competitors will enter the specific automotive market that it targets, and these new entrants will further increase competition. Further, the Company may experience increased competition for components and other parts, which may have limited supply.

The Company monitors competitive factors on an ongoing basis and may from time to time adjusts its prices and provides promotions due to competitive factors beyond its control, such as industry trends and pricing pressure, could adversely affect its margins and profitability.

The Company is dependent, directly and indirectly, on suppliers for component parts and raw materials. Suppliers may fail to deliver components and raw materials according to the Company’s schedule and at prices, quality and volumes acceptable to it.

The Company depends on third-party suppliers for key components in its products like semiconductor chips and interior parts. Raw materials may be subject to price fluctuations due to various factors beyond the Company’s control, including market conditions and global demand for these materials, which may directly or indirectly, have an adverse impact on its operating costs and profit margins. The supply chain exposes the Company to multiple potential sources of delivery failure or component shortages.

If suppliers become unable to provide, or experience delays in providing components and raw materials, the Company’s business could be disrupted, including the Company’s ability to meet its targeted schedules for deliveries to tier 1 suppliers. If existing supply agreements are terminated or renewed on less favorable terms, the Company may face difficulty or delays in finding replacement suppliers able to provide components or other supplies of comparable quality. Any such alternative suppliers may be located a long distance from the Company’s facilities, which may lead to increased costs or delays, or the terms of such new agreements may be made on less favorable terms. If the Company’s manufacturers or suppliers become unwilling or unable to provide an adequate supply of semiconductor chips, with respect to which there has been a global shortage, the Company would not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner and its business would be adversely impacted.

Changes in business or macroeconomic conditions, governmental regulations and other factors beyond the Company’s control or that it does not presently anticipate could affect its ability to receive components from suppliers. Under the Company’s purchase orders, it could be subject to penalties and price adjustments as a result of any volume shortfalls in its orders.

Concerns over inflation, geopolitical issues, global financial markets and the COVID-19 pandemic have led to increased economic instability and expectations of slower global economic growth. For example, following Russian military actions related to Ukraine in February 2022, commodity prices, including the price of oil, gas, nickel, copper and aluminum, have increased. Such disruptions to the global economy, together with inflationary pressures, has at times disrupted, and in the future may disrupt, the global supply chain and affect the Company’s ability to secure (or the cost of securing) components, raw materials or other supplier. An increase in raw material costs may require the Company to increase its prices for its products, which could adversely impact its price competitiveness. In 2022, as the pandemic-related economic instability eased, the U.S. Federal Reserve started tapering its quantitative easing monetary policies in response to elevated inflation levels (from high food and energy prices and broader pressures) and supply and demand imbalances. The U.S. Federal Reserve raised the benchmark federal-funds rate from 0.25% in March 2022 to 5.50% in July 2023 and it is possible that the U.S. Federal Reserve will continue to increase the funds rate. The financial conditions of banking institutions have come under severe pressure and deterioration, as exemplified by the proposed restructuring of several banks in the first half of 2023, driven by bank runs or simultaneous withdrawals by depositors due to various reasons, including lack of confidence in the banking system. These developments may adversely impact global liquidity, heighten market volatility and increase U.S. dollar funding costs resulting in tightened global financial conditions and fears of a recession. A prolonged period of extremely volatile and unstable market conditions would likely increase our funding costs and negatively affect market risk mitigation strategies.

Suppliers may experience disruptions in their operations, including due to equipment breakdowns, labor strikes or shortages, shipping container shortages, financial difficulties, natural disasters, component or material shortages, cost increases, acquisitions, changes in legal or regulatory requirements, or other similar problems. Some of the part that the Company utilizes for its products are obtained through short- and medium-term orders rather than long-term supply agreements. This may expose the Company to fluctuations in prices of components, materials and equipment.

Cyber-attacks and malicious internet-based activity directed at supply chains have increased in frequency and severity, and the Company cannot guarantee that third parties and infrastructure in its supply chain or its third-party partners’ supply chains have not been compromised or that they do not contain exploitable defects or bugs that could result in a breach of or disruption to its information technology systems or the third-party information technology systems that support it and its services. Ransomware attacks, including by organized criminal threat actors, nation-states, and nation-state-supported actors, are becoming increasingly prevalent and severe and can lead to significant interruptions in its operations, loss of data, and income, reputational harm, and diversion of funds. While the Company conducts risk assessments and gap analyses and have implemented monitoring and defense solutions for its networks, devices applications, and system processes, there can be no assurance that any mitigation measures that it has taken or will take will be successful in preventing or minimizing the consequences of cyber-attacks or similar incidents.

The Company’s success will be dependent upon its ability to maintain relationships with existing suppliers who are critical and necessary to the output and production of its vehicles and to create relationships with new suppliers.

Currently, the Company has multiple collaborating raw material suppliers and outsourcing manufacturers. In the fiscal years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the largest supplier of the Company, Nidec Taiwan Corporation, accounted for approximately 50.15% and around 69% of the total purchases, while the second-largest supplier accounted for around 14% and 18% of the total purchases, respectively. The Company’s success will be dependent upon its ability to maintain its relationships with existing suppliers and enter into new supplier agreements. The Company relies on suppliers to provide key components and technology for its products. Supplier agreements and purchase orders that the Company has, and may enter into with key suppliers in the future, may have provisions where such agreements can be terminated in various circumstances, including potentially without cause. In addition, if the Company’s suppliers experience substantial financial difficulties, cease operations, or otherwise face business disruptions, the Company would be required to take measures to ensure components and materials remain available. Any supply chain disruption could affect the Company’s ability to deliver its products and could increase the Company’s costs and negatively affect the Company’s liquidity and financial performance.

The Company generates a significant portion of its revenue from sales to customers in the PRC, so the Company’s business is susceptible to any change in the PRC’s general political and economic environment.

The Company historically derives a significant portion of its revenue from sales to customers located in the PRC. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, sales to customers located in the PRC accounted for approximately 62.5%, 73.5% and 83.6% of total revenue for the period. Accordingly, the results of operations and prospects of the Company are subject to economic, political and legal developments in the PRC.

The financial reforms that begun in the late 1970s have resulted in significant economic growth. However, any economic reform policies or measures in the PRC may from time to time be modified or revised. The PRC’s economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including with respect to the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in the PRC is still owned by the government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The Chinese government also exercises significant control over the PRC’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy, and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the PRC economy has experienced significant growth in the past 30 years, growth has been uneven across different regions and among different economic sectors. The Chinese government has implemented measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of the resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy but may have a negative effect on us. For example, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations.

Although the PRC economy has grown significantly in the past decade, that growth may not continue, as evidenced by the slowing of the growth of the PRC economy since 2022. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in the PRC, in the policies of the PRC government or in the laws and regulations in the PRC could have a material

Table of Contents

adverse effect on a specific industry including our operating companies in the PRC. Such developments could adversely affect our business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for our services and adversely affect the Company’s competitive position.

In addition, the Chinese government has substantial influence over the manner in which the businesses conduct their operations in the PRC. For instance, the Chinese government has recently published policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries. The Chinese government has exercised, and continues to exercise, substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. There is no assurance that the Chinese government will not announce new policies that significantly affects the manner in which the Company conducts its business in the PRC, which could materially and adversely impact the results of the Company’s operations and future prospects.

The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives or government policies which are favorable for LiDAR development efforts could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

Any reduction, elimination, alteration, ineligibility, unavailability or discriminatory application of government grants that the Company indirectly receives in relation to its research and development collaboration activities for LiDAR may result in the diminished competitiveness of the Company’s end product in this regard.

There is no guarantee that such government grants, which have been made available for development of LiDAR at NCHU, will be available in the future. If the current government grants are not available in the future, development of LiDAR may stagnate or cease, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

The Company collaborates with a range of third parties, including for certain business partners for key aspects of its business, and any failure of these partners to deliver their services adequately will adversely impact its business, operations, reputation, results of operations and prospects.

The Company contracts with third parties and universities like the NCHU to provide certain products and services to its key customers. After designing certain semiconductor components, TCO plans to engage third party semiconductor manufacturers to produce IC chipsets based on TCO’s designs. The Company has also entered into a collaboration agreement with Professor Liu’s team at NCHU for the development of its LiDAR products.

Although the Company takes care to select its third-party business partners and contractors, it cannot control their actions. If the Company’s vendors fail to perform as the Company expects, its operations and reputation could suffer if the failure harms the vendors’ ability to serve the Company and its customers. One or more of these third-party vendors may experience financial distress, staffing shortages or liquidity challenges, file for bankruptcy protection, go out of business, or suffer disruptions in their business. The Company may not be able to renew or enter into new arrangements with its third-party providers on terms satisfactory to it. If the Company successfully grows its business as expected, its third-party providers will be required to meet increased requirements from it as it seeks to serve greater customer demand.

The use of third-party vendors represents an inherent risk to the Company that could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

In addition, if any of the Company’s various counterparties experience financial difficulty, it could impact their ability to fund and pursue capital expenditures, carry out their operations in a safe and effective manner and satisfy regulatory requirements with respect to abandonment and reclamation obligations. If such companies fail to satisfy regulatory requirements with respect to abandonment and reclamation obligations, the Company may be required to satisfy such obligations and seek reimbursement from such companies. To the extent that any of such companies go bankrupt, become insolvent or make a proposal or institute any proceedings relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, it could result in such assets being shut-in, the Company potentially becoming subject to additional liabilities relating to such assets and the Company having difficulty collecting revenue due from such operators or recovering amounts owing to the Company from such operators for their share of abandonment and reclamation obligations. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial and operational results.

The Company’s research and development efforts may not yield expected results.

Technological innovation is critical to the Company’s success, especially in relation to LiDAR. The Company has developed some of its technologies in-house, and it also collaborates with third-party business partners and universities for the design and continued development of its LiDAR headlight offerings. The Company has heavily invested in its research and development efforts and expect to continue doing so in the future. Research and development activities are inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to achieve technological breakthroughs and successfully commercialize such breakthroughs in relation to LiDAR. A delay in the development of LiDAR as part of the Company’s new advanced headlight offerings could delay its expected timelines to bring such products to market, which would in turn damage its brand and reputation, adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects and cause liquidity constraints.

The markets in which the Company competes are characterized by rapid technological change, which requires the Company to continue to develop new products and product innovations, and could adversely affect market adoption of its products.

While the Company intends to invest substantial amounts on research and development, continuing technological changes in sensing technology, as well as changes in the ADAS and autonomous driving industries, could adversely affect adoption of LiDAR or ADB and/or the Company’s products. The Company’s future success will depend upon its ability to develop and introduce a variety of new capabilities and innovations to its existing product offerings, as well as to introduce a variety of new product offerings to address the changing needs of the markets in which the Company offers its products.

If the Company is unable to devote adequate resources to develop products or cannot otherwise successfully develop products or system configurations that meet customer requirements, including pricing, on a timely basis or that remain competitive with other technological alternatives, its products could lose market share, its revenue will decline, it may experience operating losses and its business and prospects will be adversely affected.

If the Company fails to execute its growth strategy or manage growth effectively, its business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.

The expected continued growth and expansion of the Company’s business and execution of its growth strategy may place a significant strain on management, business operations, financial condition and infrastructure and corporate culture. With continued growth, the Company’s information technology systems and its internal control over financial reporting and procedures may not be adequate to support its operations and may allow data security incidents that may interrupt business operations and allow third parties to obtain unauthorized access to business information or misappropriate funds. The Company may also face risks to the extent such third parties infiltrate the information technology infrastructure of its contractors.

To manage growth in operations and personnel and execute its growth strategy, the Company will need to continue to improve its operational, financial and management controls and reporting systems and procedures. In addition, the Company may face difficulties as it expands its operations into new markets in which it has limited or no prior experience. Failure to manage growth effectively could result in difficulty or delays in attracting new customers, declines in quality or customer satisfaction, increases in costs, difficulties in introducing new products and services or enhancing existing products and services, loss of customers, information security vulnerabilities or other operational difficulties, any of which could adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company may experience delays in launching and ramping the production of its products and features, or the Company may be unable to control its manufacturing costs.

The Company has previously experienced and may in the future experience launch and production ramp delays for new products. In addition, the Company may introduce in the future new or unique manufacturing processes and design features for its products. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to successfully and timely introduce and scale such processes or features.

Table of Contents

In particular, the Company’s future business depends in large part on the successful commercialization of its LiDAR and ADB products. The Company has relatively limited experience to date in design and manufacture LiDAR and ADB products for mass production vehicle platform. In order to be successful, the Company will need to implement, maintain and ramp up manufacturing capabilities, processes and supply chains and achieve the design tolerances, high quality and output rates. Bottlenecks and other unexpected challenges may arise during its production ramps, and the Company must address them promptly while continuing to improve manufacturing processes and reducing costs. If the Company is not successful in achieving these goals, it could face delays in commercialization of LiDAR and ADB products or be unable to meet its related cost and profitability targets.

Any delay or other complication in ramping the production of the Company’s current products or the development, manufacture, launch and production ramp of its future products, features and services, or in doing so cost-effectively and with high quality, may harm the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to effectively expand the Company’s sales and marketing capabilities could harm its ability to increase its customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of its solutions.

The Company’s ability to grow its customer base, achieve broader market acceptance, grow revenue, and achieve and sustain profitability will depend, to a significant extent, on the Company’s ability to effectively expand its sales and marketing operations and activities. The Company relies on its business development, sales and marketing teams to obtain new OEM. The Company plans to continue to expand in these functional areas but it may not be able to recruit and hire a sufficient number of competent personnel with requisite skills, technical expertise and experience, which may adversely affect The Company’s ability to expand its sales capabilities. The hiring process can be costly and time-consuming, and new employees may require significant training and time before they achieve full productivity. Recent hires and planned hires may not become as productive as quickly as anticipated, and the Company may be unable to hire or retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals. The Company’s ability to achieve significant revenue growth in the future will depend, in large part, on its success in recruiting, training, incentivizing and retaining a sufficient number of qualified personnel attaining desired productivity levels within a reasonable time. The Company business will be harmed if investment in personnel related to business development and related company activities does not generate a significant increase in revenue.

If the Company fails to expand effectively into new markets, its revenues and business may be negatively affected.

New initiatives are inherently risky, as each involves unproven business strategies and new product offerings with which the Company has limited or no prior development or operating experience. The Company’s future success is mainly dependent on the successful commercialization of the Company’s LiDAR and ADB products. Developing the Company’s products is expensive, and the investment in product development may involve a long or unmaterialized payback cycle. Difficulties in any of its new product development efforts could adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, even if the Company’s products have achieved successful commercialization, the Company could experience increased warranty claims, reputational damage or other adverse effects, which could be material.

The Company’s investment of resources to develop new product offerings may either be insufficient or may result in expenses that are excessive as compared to revenue produced from these new product offerings. Even if the Company is able to keep pace with changes in technology and develop new products and services, its research and development expenses could increase, its gross margins could be adversely affected and its prior products could become obsolete more quickly than expected.

If the Company is unable to devote adequate resources to develop products or cannot otherwise successfully develop products or services that meet customer requirements on a timely basis or that remain competitive with technological alternatives, its products and services could lose market share, its revenue could decline, it may experience higher operating losses, and its business and prospects could be adversely affected. Further, the Company’s development efforts with respect to these initiatives could distract management from current operations and could divert capital and other resources from its existing business. If the Company does not realize the expected benefits of its investments, its business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, could be materially and adversely affected.

The Company’s success depends on its ability to develop and maintain relationships with its partners.

The success of the Company’s business depends on its ability to develop and maintain relationships with its partners, including its OEM partners, such as Foxconn and ZF Group. These relationships help the Company access new customers and build brand awareness through the adoption of the Company’s products. If the Company fails to maintain or develop relationships with OEMs, or if OEMs opt to partner with competitors rather than the Company, its revenues may decline and its business may suffer.

In addition, the Company collaborates with Dr. Wood-Hi Cheng (“Dr. Cheng”)’s team at NCHU on the development of the Company’s products. The relationship helps the Company to access research team and resources at NCHU. If the Company fails to maintain such relationship, the development on the Company’s products may be delayed, or faltered, which will, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

There can be no certainty that the Company will be able to identify and contract with suitable additional OEM partners. To the extent the Company does identify such partners, it will need to negotiate the terms of a commercial agreement with such partners. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to negotiate commercially-attractive terms with additional OEM partners, if at all. The Company may also be limited in negotiating future commercial agreements by the provisions of its existing contracts.

CayCo’s forecasts and projections are based upon assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by its management. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, CayCo’s actual operating results may differ materially and adversely from those forecasted or projected.

CayCo’s forecasts and projections are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by its management, any or all of which may not prove to be correct or accurate. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, CayCo’s actual operating results may differ materially and adversely from those forecasted or projected. Realization of the results forecasted will depend on the successful implementation of CayCo’s proposed business plan, and policies and procedures consistent with the assumptions. Future results will also be affected by events and circumstances beyond CayCo’s control, for example, the competitive environment, its executive team, rapid technological change, economic and other conditions in the markets in which CayCo operates or seeks to enter, governmental regulation and, uncertainties inherent in product development and testing, CayCo’s future financing needs and CayCo’s ability to grow and to manage growth effectively. In particular, CayCo’s forecasts and projections include forecasts and estimates relating to the expected size and growth of the markets in which CayCo operates or seeks to enter. CayCo’s forecasts and projections also assume that it is able to perform its obligations under its commercial contracts. For the reasons described above, it is likely that the actual results of CayCo’s operations will be different from the results forecasted and those differences may be material and adverse.

The projected financial information appearing elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement has been prepared by management and reflects estimates of future performance as of the date such projected financial information was prepared. The project financial information has not been certified or examined by an accountant. CayCo’s projected results depend on the successful implementation of management’s growth strategies and are based on assumptions and events over which CayCo has only partial or no control. The assumptions underlying such projected information require the exercise of judgment and may not occur, and the projections are subject to uncertainty due to the effects of economic, business, competitive, regulatory, legislative, and political or other changes. There can be no assurance that CayCo’s financial condition, including its cash flows or results of operations, will be consistent with those set forth in such projected financial results, which could have an adverse impact on the market price of CayCo Ordinary Shares or the financial position of the Post-Closing Company. CayCo does not have any duty to update the financial projections included in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

CayCo’s financial results may vary significantly from period to period due to fluctuations in its operating costs or expenses and other foreseeable or unforeseeable factors.

CayCo expects its period-to-period financial results to vary based on its operating costs, which CayCo anticipates will fluctuate as the pace at which it continues to design, develop and manufacture new products and increases production capacity by expanding its current manufacturing facilities and adding future facilities, may not be consistent or linear between periods. Additionally, CayCo’s revenues from period to period may fluctuate as it

Table of Contents

introduces existing products to new markets for the first time and as CayCo develops and introduces new products. The Post-Closing Company’s financial results may not meet expectations of equity research analysts, ratings agencies or investors, who may be focused only on short-term quarterly financial results. If this occurs, the trading price of CayCo Ordinary Shares could fall substantially, either suddenly or over time, and CayCo could face costly lawsuits, including securities class action suits.

CayCo may experience delays in launching and ramping the production of its products and features, or CayCo may be unable to control its manufacturing costs. TCO has previously experienced and may in the future experience launch and production ramp delays for new products and features. In addition, CayCo may introduce in the future new or unique manufacturing processes and design features for its products. There is no guarantee that CayCo will be able to successfully and timely introduce and scale such processes or features.

Should CayCo pursue acquisitions in the future, it would be subject to risks associated with acquisitions.

CayCo may acquire additional assets, products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to its existing business. The process of identifying and consummating acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new assets and businesses into CayCo’s own business would require attention from management and could result in a diversion of resources from its existing business, which in turn could have an adverse effect on its operations. Acquired assets or businesses may not generate the expected financial results. Acquisitions could also result in the use of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the occurrence of goodwill impairment charges, amortization expenses for other intangible assets and exposure to potential unknown liabilities of the acquired business.

If CayCo completes future acquisitions, it may not ultimately strengthen its competitive position or achieve its goals and business strategy; CayCo may be subject to claims or liabilities assumed from an acquired company, product, or technology; acquisitions CayCo completes could be viewed negatively by its customers, investors, and securities analysts; and CayCo may incur costs and expenses necessary to address an acquired company’s failure to comply with laws and governmental rules and regulations. Additionally, CayCo may be subject to litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims from terminated employees, former shareholders or other third parties, which may differ from or be more significant than the risks CayCo’s business faces. If CayCo is unsuccessful at integrating future acquisitions in a timely manner, or the technologies and operations associated with such acquisitions, the revenue and operating results of the combined company could be adversely affected. Any integration process may require significant time and resources, which may disrupt CayCo’s ongoing business and divert management’s attention, and CayCo may not be able to manage the integration process successfully or in a timely manner. CayCo may not successfully evaluate or utilize the acquired technology or personnel, realize anticipated synergies from the acquisition, or accurately forecast the financial impact of an acquisition transaction and integration of such acquisition, including accounting charges and any potential impairment of goodwill and intangible assets recognized in connection with such acquisitions. CayCo may have to pay cash, incur debt, or issue equity or equity-linked securities to pay for any future acquisitions, each of which could adversely affect its financial condition or the market price of CayCo Ordinary Shares. Furthermore, the sale of equity or issuance of equity-linked debt to finance any future acquisitions could result in dilution to CayCo’s shareholders. The occurrence of any of these risks could harm CayCo business, financial condition, and results of operations.

CayCo may need to raise additional funds and these funds may not be available when needed or may be available only on unfavorable terms.

CayCo may need to raise additional capital in the future to further scale its business and expand to additional markets. For example, CayCo’s capital budget assumes, among others, that the Company Parties will satisfy its condition precedent under the Business Combination Agreement, namely that in consideration for SPAC to execute the Business Combination Agreement and certain conditions, each of the Company Parties irrevocably waives any right, title, interest or claim of any kind it has or may have in the future in or to any monies in the Trust Account and agree not to seek recourse against the Trust Account or any funds distributed therefrom as a result of, or arising out of, the Business Combination Agreement and any negotiations or agreements with SPAC.

CayCo’s development timeline progresses as planned and corresponding expenditures are consistent with current expectations, both of which are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described herein. CayCo may raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or debt securities, or through obtaining credit from government or financial institutions. CayCo cannot be certain that additional funds will be available on

Table of Contents

favorable terms when required, or at all. If CayCo cannot raise additional funds when needed, its financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. If CayCo raises funds through the issuance of debt securities or through loan arrangements, the terms of which could require significant interest payments, contain covenants that restrict CayCo’s business, or other unfavorable terms. In addition, to the extent CayCo raises funds through the sale of additional equity securities, CayCo shareholders would experience additional dilution.

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

The Company transacts business globally in multiple currencies and has foreign currency risks related to its revenue, costs of revenue and operating expenses. In addition, a portion of the Company’s costs and expenses have been, and the Company anticipates will continue to be, denominated in foreign currencies, including the U.S. dollar and Renminbi.

The majority of the Company’s products are sold through exports, which results in foreign currency translation when converted into New Taiwan Dollars. This creates gains or losses from foreign exchange. In fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded exchange losses of NT$21,627,000 (U.S.$704,233) and exchange gains of NT$37,399,000 (U.S.$1,217,812), respectively. As over 90% of the Company’s sales are from exports, primarily in U.S. dollars, exchange rate fluctuations can significantly impact the company’s profitability. If U.S. dollar depreciate against the New Taiwan Dollar, our revenue, which is primarily denominated in U.S. dollar, will decrease, while our costs, which are primarily denominated in New Taiwan Dollar, will remain the same. As a result, our profitability, business, financial condition and results of operation could be materially and adversely affected.

The Company will continue to implement the following measures to mitigate the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its profitability:

(a) Collecting relevant information on exchange rate fluctuations, closely monitoring trends and changes, and maintaining close communication with banks to promptly respond to potential risks.

(b) Maintaining an adequate level of foreign currency reserves, converting excess foreign currency into New Taiwan Dollars in a timely manner to reduce exchange rate risk.

(c) Strengthening relationships with domestic suppliers and considering using foreign currency for payments when appropriate, depending on exchange rate trends, to mitigate exchange rate risk.

However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to effectively manage the foreign exchange fluctuation or at all. The Company currently does not have any exchange hedge to mitigate the potential negative effect of exchange rate fluctuations. If the Company fails to manage the foreign exchange rate risks, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operation could be materially and adversely affected.

CayCo’s estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate.

From time to time, CayCo makes statements with estimates of the addressable market for its solutions and the global optical market in general. Market opportunity estimates and growth forecasts, whether obtained from third-party sources or developed internally, are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. This is especially so at the present time due to the uncertain and rapidly changing projections of the severity, magnitude and duration of the current COVID-19 pandemic. The estimates and forecasts relating to the size and expected growth of the target market, market demand and adoption, capacity to address this demand and pricing may also prove to be inaccurate. In particular, estimates regarding the current and projected market opportunity are difficult to predict. The estimated addressable market may not materialize for many years, if ever, and even if the markets meet the size estimates and growth forecasts, CayCo’s business could fail to grow at similar rates.

Concentration of ownership among CayCo’s existing executive officers, directors and their affiliates may prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo’s directors, executive officers and their affiliates as a group will beneficially own approximately 60% of the outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares. As a result, these shareholders will be able to exercise a significant level of control over all matters requiring shareholder approval,

Table of Contents

including the election of directors, any amendment of the articles of association and approval of significant corporate transactions. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in management and will make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without the support of these shareholder.

The Company’s insurance coverage strategy may not be adequate to protect it from all business risks.

The Company may be subject, in the ordinary course of business, to losses resulting from products liability, accidents, acts of God and other claims against the Company, for which it may have no insurance coverage. The policies that the Company does have may include significant deductibles or self-insured retentions, policy limitations and exclusions, and the Company cannot be certain that its insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover all future losses or claims against it. A loss that is uninsured or which exceeds policy limits may require the Company to pay substantial amounts, which may harm its financial condition and results of operations.

If the Company fails to retain its existing senior management team or attract qualified new personnel, such failure could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s business requires disciplined execution at all levels of its organization. This execution requires an experienced and talented management team. If the Company were to lose the benefit of the experience, efforts and abilities of key executive personnel, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Competition for skilled and experienced management is intense, and the Company may not be successful in attracting and retaining new qualified personnel required to grow and operate the Company’s business profitably.

Investor conﬁdence and share value may be adversely impacted if CayCo concludes that the Company’s internal control over ﬁnancial reporting is not effective.

Effective internal controls are necessary for CayCo to provide reliable ﬁnancial reports and to help prevent fraud. Although CayCo undertakes a number of procedures in order to help ensure the reliability of its ﬁnancial reports, including those imposed on it under U.S. securities laws, CayCo cannot be certain that such measures will ensure that it will maintain adequate control over ﬁnancial processes and reporting. Failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difﬁculties encountered in their implementation, could harm CayCo’s results of operations or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations. If CayCo discovers a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce investor conﬁdence in its consolidated ﬁnancial statements and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls, which ultimately could negatively impact the market price of the Company’s common shares.

CayCo will incur signiﬁcant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on its business, ﬁnancial condition and results of operations.

CayCo will face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that the Company did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404 thereof, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, PCAOB and the securities exchanges, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements will increase costs and make certain activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements require CayCo to carry out activities CayCo has not done previously. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements will be incurred. Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identiﬁed (for example, if the auditors identify a signiﬁcant deﬁciency or material weaknesses in the internal control over ﬁnancial reporting), CayCo could incur additional costs to rectify those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect its reputation or investor perceptions. In addition, CayCo will purchase director and ofﬁcer liability insurance, which has substantial additional premiums. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations increase legal and ﬁnancial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. Advocacy efforts by shareholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.

Table of Contents

Management estimates are subject to uncertainty.

In preparing consolidated ﬁnancial statements in conformity with GAAP, estimates and assumptions are used by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses recognized during the periods presented and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date of the ﬁnancial statements. These estimates and assumptions must be made because certain information that is used in the preparation of such ﬁnancial statements is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available, or is not capable of being readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. In some cases, these estimates are particularly difﬁcult to determine and the Company must exercise signiﬁcant judgment. Estimates may be used in management’s assessment of items such as fair values, income taxes, stock-based compensation and asset retirement obligations. Actual results for all estimates could differ materially from the estimates and assumptions used by the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, ﬁnancial condition, results of operations, cash ﬂows and future prospects.

Risks Related to Company’s Technology and Intellectual Property

The Company’s technology could have undetected defects, errors or bugs in hardware, firmware or software, which could reduce market adoption, damage the Company’s reputation with current or prospective customers, and/or expose the Company to product liability and other claims that could materially and adversely affect its business.

The Company may be subject to claims that its ADB or LiDAR products have malfunctioned and persons were injured or purported to be injured due to latent defects. Additionally, undetected errors, defects, especially as new products are introduced or as new versions are released, could result in serious injury, including fatalities, to the end users of technology incorporating the Company’s products, or those in the surrounding area. These risks are particularly prevalent in the ADAS markets and self-driving vehicles. Some errors or defects in the Company’s products may only be discovered after they have been tested, commercialized and deployed by customers. In accordance with customary practice in the automotive industry, the Company provides its customer with a time-limited warranty to its products. If such errors or defects occur within the respective warranty period, the Company may incur significant additional development costs and product recall, repair or replacement costs. These problems may also result in claims against the Company by its customers or by third parties.

Any insurance that the Company carries may not be sufficient or it may not apply to all situations. Similarly, to the extent that such malfunctions are related to components obtained from third-party vendors, such vendors may not assume responsibility for such malfunctions. Any of these events could adversely affect the Company’s brand, reputation, financial condition or results of operations.

Any defects or errors in product or services offerings, or the perception of such defects or errors, or other performance problems could result in any of the following, each of which could adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations:

• expenditure of significant financial and product development resources, including recalls, in efforts to analyze, correct, eliminate or work;

• around errors or defects;

• loss of existing or potential customers or partners;

• interruptions or delays in sales;

• equipment replacements;

• delayed or lost revenue;

• delay or failure to attain market acceptance;

• delay in the development or release of new functionality or improvements;

• negative publicity and reputational harm;

• sales credits or refunds;

Table of Contents

• exposure of confidential or proprietary information;

• diversion of development and customer service resources;

• breach of warranty claims;

• legal claims under applicable laws, rules and regulations; and

• the expense and risk of litigation.

A successful product liability, warranty, or other similar claim could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, even claims that ultimately are unsuccessful could result in expenditure of funds in litigation, divert management’s time and other resources and cause reputational harm.

Any legal proceedings or claims against the Company could be costly and time-consuming to defend and could harm its reputation regardless of the outcome.

The Company is and/or may in the future become subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, including intellectual property, data privacy, product liability, employment, class action, whistleblower and other litigation claims, and governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, cause the Company to incur significant expenses or liability, or require the Company to change its business practices. In addition, the expense of litigation and the timing of this expense from period to period are difficult to estimate, subject to change, and could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s properties may be subject to actions and opposition by non-governmental agencies.

The Company’s manufacturing and R&D facilities could be subject to physical sabotage or public opposition. Such public opposition could expose the Company to the risk of higher costs, delays or even project cancellations. The Company may not be able to satisfy the concerns of special interest groups and non-governmental organizations and attempting to address such concerns may require the Company to incur significant and unanticipated capital and operating expenditures. If any of the Company’s manufacturing and R&D facilities are the subject of physical sabotage or public opposition, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The Company does not have insurance to protect against such risks.

Any failure, inadequacy, interruption, security failure or breach of the Company’s information technology systems, whether owned by the Company or outsourced or managed by third parties, could harm the Company’s ability to effectively operate its business and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company relies heavily on its information technology systems for many functions across its operations, including managing the Company’s supply chain and inventory, processing customer transactions in the Company’s stores, allocating lens processing jobs to the appropriate laboratories, the Company’s financial accounting and reporting, compensating the Company’s employees and operating the Company’s websites. The Company’s ability to effectively manage its business and coordinate the sourcing, distribution and sale of its products depends significantly on the reliability and capacity of these systems. Such systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages or damages, telecommunications problems, data corruption, software errors, network failures, security breaches, acts of war or terrorist attacks, fire, flood and natural disasters. The Company’s servers could be affected by physical or electronic break-ins, and computer viruses or similar disruptions may occur. A system outage may also cause the loss of important data. The Company’s existing safety systems, data backup, access protection, user management and information technology emergency planning may not be sufficient to prevent data loss or long-term network outages.

In addition, the Company may have to upgrade its existing information technology systems from time to time in order for such systems to withstand the increasing needs of its expanding business. The Company relies on certain hardware, telecommunications and software vendors to maintain and periodically upgrade many of these systems so that it can continue to support the Company’s business. Costs and potential problems and interruptions associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems and technology or with maintenance or adequate support of

Table of Contents

existing systems could disrupt or reduce the efficiency of the Company’s operations. The Company also depends on its information technology staff. If the Company cannot meet its staffing needs in this area, it may not be able to fulfill its technology initiatives while continuing to provide maintenance on existing systems.

The Company could be required to make significant capital expenditures to remediate any such failure, malfunction or breach with its information technology systems. Further, additional investment needed to upgrade and expand its information technology infrastructure would require significant investment of additional resources and capital, which may not always be available or available on favorable terms. Any material disruption or slowdown of the Company’s systems, including those caused by its failure to successfully upgrade our systems, and its inability to convert to alternate systems in an efficient and timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Taiwan

CayCo faces substantial political risks associated with doing business in Taiwan and in the PRC, including obtaining certain approvals from the Investment Commission of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in Taiwan, particularly due to the relationship between Taiwan and the PRC.

CayCo’s principal executive offices and substantially all of its assets are located in Taiwan, and substantially all of its revenues are derived from its operations in Taiwan. Accordingly, CayCo’s business, financial condition and results of operations and the market price of CayCo Ordinary Shares may be affected by changes in Taiwan governmental policies, taxation, inflation or interest rates and by social instability and diplomatic and social developments in or affecting Taiwan which are outside of CayCo’s control. Taiwan has a unique international political status. The PRC government asserts sovereignty over the PRC and Taiwan and does not recognize the legitimacy of the government of Taiwan. The PRC government has indicated that it may use military force to gain control over Taiwan if Taiwan declares independence or if Taiwan refuses to accept the PRC’s stated “One China” policy. In addition, on March 14, 2005, the National People’s Congress of the PRC passed what is widely referred to as the “anti-secession” law, a law authorizing the PRC military to respond to efforts by Taiwan to seek formal independence. An increase in tensions between Taiwan and the PRC and the possibility of instability and uncertainty could adversely affect the prices of CayCo’s Securities. It is unclear what effects any of the events described above may have on relations with the PRC. Relations between Taiwan and the PRC and other factors affecting Taiwan’s political environment could affect CayCo’s business.

Any lack of requisite approvals, licenses, permits or filings or failure to comply with any requirements of Taiwan laws, regulations and policies may materially and adversely affect CayCo’s daily operations.

In accordance with the relevant Taiwan laws and regulations, TCO, as the wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo after the consummation of the Business Combination is required to maintain various approvals, licenses, permits and filings to operate its business, including but not limited to business registration, factory registration, tax registration and those with respect to environment protection. The obtaining of these approvals, licenses, permits and filings are subject to satisfactory compliance with, among other things, the applicable laws and regulations. If TCO is unable to obtain any of such licenses and permits or extend or renew any of its current licenses or permits upon their expirations, or if TCO is required to incur significant additional costs to obtain or renew these licenses, permits and approvals, CayCo’s daily operations could be materially and adversely affected.

TCO is subject to restrictions on paying dividend or making other payments to CayCo, which may restrict CayCo’s ability to satisfy its liquidity requirements.

As an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands structured as a holding company, after the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo may need dividends and other distributions on equity from TCO to satisfy its liquidity requirements. Current Taiwan regulations permit TCO to pay dividends to their respective shareholders only out of their after-tax accumulated profits, if any, which shall first make up previous losses and set aside at least 10% of its accumulated profits each year as statutory reserve. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Furthermore, if TCO incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments to CayCo. Any limitation on the ability of TCO to distribute dividends or to make payments to CayCo may restrict CayCo’s ability to satisfy its liquidity requirements. In addition, the dividend payments by TCO to CayCo shall be subject to the withholding tax of 21%.

Table of Contents

TCO is subject to foreign exchange control imposed by Taiwan authorities, which may affect the paying dividends, repatriating the interest or making other payments to CayCo.

Currently Taiwan regulates only those foreign exchange transactions that involve the conversion of the New Taiwan Dollar into foreign currencies. Pursuant to the relevant provisions of Taiwan Foreign Exchange Control Act, foreign exchange transactions of a value of NTD 500,000 or more shall be declared to the Central Bank of Taiwan (“Taiwan CBC”). Further, for a remittance by a company as follows, relevant testimonials shall be submitted and such remittance shall be subject to the reporting to and/pr approval of the Taiwan CBC: (i) a single remittance of an amount of US$1 million or more; or (ii) annual accumulated settlement amount of foreign exchange purchased or sold has exceeded US$50 million. Nevertheless, Taiwan government may impose further foreign exchange restrictions in certain emergency situations, where Taiwan government experiences extreme difficulty in stabilizing the balance of payments or where there are substantial disturbances in the financial and capital markets in Taiwan. If the dividend payments or other payments by TCO to CayCo involves the currency conversion from New Taiwan Dollar to US Dollar, such conversion would be subject to the foregoing foreign exchange control imposed by Taiwan authority. Under certain circumstances as prescribed by the relevant Taiwan regulations, documentary evidence of such foreign exchange transactions shall be presented and such transactions shall be conducted at designated foreign exchange banks in Taiwan which have the licenses to carry out foreign exchange business. However, there is no assurance that these foreign exchange regulations will remain unchanged in the future. If the relevant Taiwan regulations change in the future and any required approval is not obtained, TCO’s ability to make payments to CayCo in foreign currency may be restricted, and CayCo’s capital expenditure plans, business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Foreign exchange transactions for non-trade-related purposes or exceeding the applicable annual quota threshold would require special approval from Taiwan CBC, which will be at the discretion of and considered by Taiwan CBC on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, CayCo may provide loans to TCO. If the term of the loan provided by CayCo to TCO is one year or more, CayCo shall obtain prior approval from the competent authorities before the loan can be remitted into Taiwan and TCO shall file a declaration of foreign debt to the competent authority when the loan is remitted into Taiwan. CayCo cannot assure you that the Taiwan government will not intervene in such transactions or impose restrictions on the ability of CayCo and its subsidiaries to transfer cash.

If TCO expands into the PRC market, TCO may be subject to Taiwan regulations on investment or technical cooperation in the PRC.

TCO currently focuses on the Taiwan market and may consider expanding its businesses in the mainland Chinese market in the near future. Pursuant to the Taiwan Permission Regulations for Investment or Technical Cooperation in the PRC and the Review Principles for Investments or Technical Cooperation in the PRC (“Permission Regulations”), an investment or technical cooperation made by a Taiwanese investor in the PRC is subject to the restrictions thereunder and requires the approval by the competent Taiwan authority, the Investment Commission, the Ministry of the Economic Affairs (the “Taiwan Investment Commission”). The restrictions under the Permission Regulations include a negative list in which investment or technical cooperation is prohibited as well as the maximum investment amount. TCO does not believe its current operations in the PRC is restricted by the negative list. There is no assurance that the negative list will not in the future contain key items of CayCo such as optical components, laser lights modules, LiDAR and ADB systems. Furthermore, depending on the amount invested in the PRC, CayCo may need to obtain approval from the Taiwan Investment Commission in order to make investments in the PRC or to grant licenses to mainland Chinese entities. The Taiwan Investment Commission may at its discretion reject CayCo’s application. If the Taiwan Investment Commission prevents CayCo from making investment in the PRC or granting licenses to mainland Chinese entities, CayCo may not be able to expand its business in the PRC.

Taiwanese investors holding more than 10% of CayCo Ordinary Shares will be subject to Taiwan regulations on investment or technical cooperation in the PRC for its investment or technical cooperation in the PRC.

Under the Permission Regulations, for an investment made by a Taiwanese individual or entity (“Taiwanese Investor”) in a “third region” company which conducts the investments or technical cooperation in the PRC defined therein and such Taiwanese Investor (i) acts as director, supervisor, manager or equivalent position or (ii) has a shareholding or capital contribution of more than 10% in such third region company, the investment in such a third region company would also be deemed a defined investment in the PRC and therefore be subject to the Permission Regulations.

Table of Contents

Therefore, for CayCo’s future investment or technical cooperation in the PRC, CayCo’s Taiwanese shareholders holding more than10% of CayCo Ordinary Shares or acting as director, supervisor, manager or equivalent position of CayCo will need to apply for the foreign investment approval with the competent Taiwan authority, the Taiwan Investment Commission in accordance with the Permission Regulations. There are restrictions on the investment or technical cooperation with the PRC, including, without limitation, the annual investment amount in the PRC shall be capped at US$5 million per year for Taiwan individuals or NTD 80 million or 60% of the higher of its stand-along net worth or consolidated net worth, whichever is higher, for a Taiwan small-medium enterprise. Your indirect investment in the PRC via CayCo under the Permission Regulations will be calculated on the portion of your shareholding in CayCo. If your aggregate investments in the PRC exceed the annual ceiling amount, the Taiwan Investment Commission will reject your application for the exceeding investment in the PRC. If a Taiwanese Investor fails to obtain applicable approvals from the Taiwan Investment Commission in respect of its investment in the PRC, an administrative fine ranging NTD 50 thousand to 25 million and imprisonment may be imposed.

Risks Related to Chenghe and the Business Combination

Chenghe’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that express substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a “going concern.” Chenghe may not have sufficient funds to consummate the Business Combination.

As of December 31, 2022, Chenghe had cash of $640,833 held outside of the Trust Account, available for working capital needs. Chenghe has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its initial business combination. Chenghe cannot assure you that its plan to raise capital or to consummate an initial business combination will be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about Chenghe’ ability to continue as a going concern. Chenghe’ financial statements contained in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement do not include any adjustments that might be necessary, should Chenghe be unable to continue as a going concern.

If Chenghe is required to seek additional capital, it will need to borrow funds from its Sponsor, directors, officers or other third parties, or it may be forced to liquidate. None of such persons is under any obligations to advance funds to Chenghe in such circumstances. In addition, any such advances would be repaid only from the funds held outside the Trust Account or from funds released upon completion of the Business Combination. If Chenghe does not have sufficient funds available to consummate the Business Combination, it will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. Consequently, SPAC Public Shareholders may receive less than $10.00 per share.

Any restatement of ﬁnancial results, or the time required to evaluate possible errors, may impact the market price for SPAC Units, and SPAC’s ability to complete a Business Combination on a timely basis.

There has been recent focus on historical accounting practices by special purpose acquisition companies. For example, on April 12, 2021, the SEC Staff issued a statement which resulted in a determination that the warrants and other related instruments issued by many special purpose acquisition companies, including the SPAC, should be classiﬁed as liabilities rather than equity. Further guidance from the SEC or industry-wide consensus could result in additional changes in the accounting treatment related to special purpose acquisition companies. Changes could result in the identiﬁcation of accounting errors in SPAC’s previously issued ﬁnancial statements, restatements of SPAC’s previously issued ﬁnancial statements, the ﬁling of notices that previously issued ﬁnancial statements may not be relied upon, and ﬁndings of material weaknesses and signiﬁcant deﬁciencies in internal controls over ﬁnancial reporting. In addition, changes in accounting treatment, or the time required to evaluate any such changes, could delay SPAC’s ability to consummate an initial business combination or otherwise have a material adverse effect on SPAC’s ability to consummate the Business Combination with the Company, or another business combination.

The Business Combination may be delayed or terminated if the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau fails to grant the relevant IC approval timely or at all.

Since CayCo’s jurisdiction is outside of Taiwan, in order to consummate the TCO Restructuring portion of the Business Combination Agreement, CayCo must apply to and receive approval for the TCO Restructuring from the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau (“CTSPB”), in accordance with Taiwan’s Statute for Investment by Overseas Chinese or Statute for Investment by Foreign Nationals. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, TCO shall uses its best efforts to obtain the Phase I IC Approval within thirty (30) Business Days after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, and use its best efforts to obtain the Phase II IC Approval required to consummate

Table of Contents

the Transactions and the TCO Restructuring, as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event within thirty (30) Business Days after TCO has received the Company Shareholder Approval. The CTSPB has the discretion to delay or deny its approval of any application. In the event that CTSPB fails to grant the relevant IC approval, Chenghe may choose to terminate the Business Combination. Thus, the Transactions contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement could be delayed or terminated if the CTSPB does not timely approve CayCo’s application.

CayCo may fail to acquire sufficient shares of TCO, and the Business Combination may be delayed or terminated.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the obligations of Chenghe to consummate, or cause to be consummated the Business Combination is subject to certain closing conditions, including CayCo acquiring at least 90.1% of the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares after the TCO Restructuring Closing, which may be waived by Chenghe at its discretion. There is no assurance that CayCo will be able to acquire a sufficient number of Company Common Shares on commercially acceptable terms or at all. If CayCo fails to acquire a sufficient number of Company Common Shares to fulfill the closing condition in a timely manner or at all, Chenghe may choose to terminate the Business Combination or waive the compliance of such closing condition. Therefore, the Business Combination could be delayed or terminated if CayCo fails to acquire 90.1% of the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares.

Chenghe and TCO may not be able to obtain Transaction Financing in connection with the Business Combination.

TCO and Chenghe may not be able to obtain Transaction Financing on terms acceptable to TCO and Chenghe, or at all. If Chenghe and Chenghe do not obtain Transaction Financing, the parties may not be able to consummate the Business Combination or certain other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The terms of any Transaction Financing may be onerous to TCO, and TCO may not be able to obtain alternative financing on terms that are acceptable to it, or at all. The failure to secure Transaction Financing could impede the ability to consummate the Business Combination and/or harm the continued development or growth of TCO following the Closing. None of TCO’s officers, directors or shareholders is required to provide any financing to TCO in connection with or after the consummation of the Business Combination.

Because TCO is not conducting an underwritten offering of its securities, no underwriter has conducted due diligence of TCO’s business, operations or financial condition or reviewed the disclosure in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

Section 11 of the Securities Act (“Section 11”) imposes liability on parties, including underwriters, involved in a securities offering if the registration statement contains a materially false statement or material omission. To effectively establish a due diligence defense against a cause of action brought pursuant to Section 11, a defendant, including an underwriter, carries the burden of proof to demonstrate that such defendant, after reasonable investigation, believed that the statements in the registration statement were true and free of material omissions. In order to meet this burden of proof, underwriters in a registered offering typically conduct extensive due diligence of the registrant and vet the registrant’s disclosure. Such due diligence may include calls with the issuer’s management, review of material agreements, and background checks on key personnel, among other investigations.

Because TCO intends to become publicly traded through a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company rather through an underwritten offering of its ordinary shares, no underwriter is involved in the Business Combination. As a result, no underwriter has conducted due diligence on TCO in order to establish a due diligence defense with respect to the disclosure presented in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. If such investigation had occurred, certain information in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement may have been presented in a different manner or additional information may have been presented at the request of such underwriter.

In addition, going public via a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company does not involve a book-building process as is the case in an underwritten public offering. In any underwritten public offering, the initial value of a company is set by investors who indicate the price at which they are prepared to purchase shares from the underwriters. In the case of a special purpose acquisition company transaction, the value of the company is established by means of negotiations between the target company, the special purpose acquisition company and, in some cases, “PIPE” investors who agree to purchase shares at the time of the business combination. The process of establishing the value of a company in a special purpose acquisition company business combination may be less effective than the bookbuilding process in an underwritten public offering and also does not reflect events that may have occurred between the interim period. In addition, underwritten public offerings are frequently oversubscribed

Table of Contents

resulting in additional potential demand for shares in the aftermarket following the underwritten public offering. There is no such book of demand built up in connection with special purpose acquisition company transaction and no underwriters with the responsibility of stabilizing the share price which may result in the share price being harder to sustain after the transaction.

The Business Combination remains subject to conditions that Chenghe cannot control, and if such conditions are not satisfied or otherwise waived, the Business Combination may not be consummated.

The Business Combination is subject to a number of Closing Conditions, including but not limited to (i) the accuracy of representations and warranties of Chenghe and TCO in the Business Combination Agreement to various standards; (ii) material compliance with pre-closing covenants; (iii) no material adverse effect for TCO; (iv) the Company Acquisition Percentage reaching at least 90.1%; (v) the consummation of the TCO Restructuring; (v) the delivery of customary closing certificates, (vi) the receipt of Taiwan IC Approval and such approval being effective, (vii) the receipt of all Third Party Consents, if any, (viii) the absence of a legal prohibition on consummating the transactions, (ix) approval by the SPAC’s and the Company’s shareholders, (x) approval of a listing application on the applicable Stock Exchange for newly issued shares, and (xi) SPAC having at least US$5,000,001 of net tangible assets remaining after redemption. There is no assurance that all Closing Conditions will be satisfied or waived or that the conditions will be satisfied or waived in the expected time frame. If the Closing Conditions are not satisfied (and are not waived, to the extent available), either TCO or Chenghe may, subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, terminate the Business Combination Agreement. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Termination.”

Chenghe may be subject to securities class action and derivative lawsuits, which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the Business Combination from being completed.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against companies that have entered into agreements similar to the Business Combination Agreement or similar agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on Chenghe’s liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Business Combination, that injunction may delay or prevent the Business Combination from being completed. Currently, Chenghe is not aware of any securities class action lawsuits or derivative lawsuits being filed in connection with the Business Combination.

If Chenghe is unable to complete the Business Combination or another business combination by the Extended Deadline, and it is unable, or elect not, to seek an extension of such time period, it will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the issued and outstanding Public Shares and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and Chenghe Board, liquidating and dissolving. In such event, Public Shareholders may only receive $10.30 per share (or less than such amount in certain circumstances).

If Chenghe is unable to complete the Business Combination or another business combination within the required time period and it is unable, or elect not, to seek another extension of such time period, it will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten Business Days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of remaining shareholders and Chenghe Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. In such case, Public Shareholders may only receive $10.30 per share (or less than $10.30 per share in certain circumstances where a third party brings a claim against Chenghe that the Sponsor is unable to indemnify (as described herein)), and SPAC Warrants will expire worthless.

Table of Contents

In addition, Chenghe cannot assure you that it will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against it. As a result, its shareholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more). Accordingly, Chenghe cannot assure you that third parties will not seek to recover from Chenghe Shareholders amounts owed to them by Chenghe.

If the Business Combination is not completed, potential target businesses may have leverage over Chenghe in negotiating a business combination; Chenghe’s ability to conduct due diligence on a business combination as it approaches the Extended Deadline may decrease; and Chenghe may have insufficient working capital to continue to pursue potential target businesses, each of which could undermine Chenghe’s ability to complete a business combination on terms that would produce value for its shareholders.

Any potential target business with which Chenghe enters into negotiations concerning an initial business combination will be aware that it must complete an initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, unless it amends Chenghe Articles to further extend the time to consummate an initial business combination. Consequently, if Chenghe is unable to complete this Business Combination, a potential target business may obtain leverage over it in negotiating an initial business combination. This risk will increase as Chenghe gets closer to the time frame described above. In addition, Chenghe may have limited time to conduct due diligence and may enter into an initial business combination on terms that it would have rejected upon a more comprehensive investigation. Additionally, Chenghe may have insufficient working capital to continue the efforts to pursue a business combination. See “— Chenghe’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that express substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a “going concern.” Chenghe may not have sufficient funds to consummate the Business Combination.”

If third parties bring claims against Chenghe, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption or liquidation amount received by Chenghe Shareholders may be less than $10.30 per share.

Chenghe’s placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against it. Although Chenghe has obtained waiver agreements from certain vendors, service providers and prospective target businesses whereby such parties have waived any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they or other parties who did not execute such waivers will not seek recourse against the Trust Account. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that a court will uphold the validity of such agreements. Accordingly, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to claims that could take priority over those of SPAC Public Shareholders. Consequently, you may receive less than $10.30 per share in connection with any redemption of your Public Shares.

In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account upon the failure to consummate an initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, the Sponsor has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless Chenghe against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever to which Chenghe may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered or products sold to Chenghe or (ii) any prospective target business with which Chenghe has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or merger agreement to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party or the target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (a) $10.30 per Public Share and (b) the actual amount per share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such indemnification will not apply to any claims by a third party that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account, nor will it apply to any claims under indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, Chenghe has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations. Therefore, Chenghe cannot assure you that its Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. If the Sponsor is unable to satisfy its obligations or asserts that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Chenghe independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Chenghe currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on its behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to Chenghe, it is possible that Chenghe’s independent directors, in exercising their business judgment and subject to their fiduciary duties, may choose not to do so in any particular instance. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for Chenghe’s business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.30 per Public Share. In such event, you would receive such lesser amount per share.

Table of Contents

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to its Public Shareholders, Chenghe files a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by Chenghe Shareholders in connection with Chenghe’s liquidation may be reduced.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to Public Shareholders, Chenghe files a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law, and may be included in its bankruptcy or insolvency estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of its shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy or insolvency claims deplete the Trust Account, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by Chenghe Shareholders in connection with Chenghe’s liquidation may be reduced.

Additionally, if Chenghe is forced to file a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, any distributions received by Chenghe’s shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy and/or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy or insolvency court could seek to recover all amounts received by Chenghe’s shareholders. Because Chenghe intends to distribute the proceeds held in the Trust Account to Public Shareholders promptly after the expiration of the time period to complete a business combination, this may be viewed or interpreted as giving preference to Public Shareholders over any potential creditors with respect to access to or distributions from Chenghe’s assets. Furthermore, Chenghe Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duties to Chenghe’s creditors and/or as having acted in bad faith by paying Public Shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors, thereby exposing itself and Chenghe to claims of punitive damages. Chenghe cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against it for these reasons.

Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or are in addition to, the interests of other Chenghe Shareholders in recommending that shareholders vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and approval of the other proposals described in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

When considering Chenghe Board’s recommendation that Chenghe’s shareholders vote in favor of the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, shareholders should be aware that the Sponsor, directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of the shareholders, which could cause them to benefit from and incentivize them to pursue a business combination with a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to non-redeeming shareholders rather than liquidate. Chenghe directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination and did not believe that such interests would preclude them from approving the Business Combination or from recommending the Business Combination to shareholders, considering that these interests would be disclosed in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things:

Table of Contents

SPAC Public Warrants and the substantial number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares that the Sponsor and these individuals will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor and these individuals can earn a positive return on their investment, even if Public Shareholders have a negative return on their investment;

Table of Contents

be resolved in SPAC’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to SPAC, subject to application fiduciary duties under Cayman Companies Act. SPAC MAA provide that SPAC renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any officer or director of SPAC. This waiver allows SPAC’s officers and directors to allocate opportunities based on a combination of the objectives and fundraising needs of the target, as well as the investment objectives of the entity. SPAC does not believe that the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine otherwise had a material impact on its search for an acquisition target.

The personal and financial interests of the Sponsor, directors and officers may have influenced their motivations in identifying and selecting TCO and completing a business combination with TCO, and may influence the operation of the Post-Closing Company following the Business Combination by some of them.

The exercise of discretion by Chenghe’s directors and officers in agreeing to changes to the terms of or waivers of the Closing Conditions may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in the best interests of Chenghe Shareholders.

In the period leading up to the Closing, events may occur that would require Chenghe to agree to amend the Business Combination Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by CayCo and/or TCO or to waive rights that Chenghe is entitled to under the Business Combination Agreement. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of TCO’s business, a request by TCO and/or CayCo to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement or the occurrence of other events that would have a material adverse effect on TCO’s business and would entitle Chenghe to terminate the Business Combination Agreement. Chenghe may also agree to waive, in whole or in part, one or more of the conditions to its obligations to complete the Business Combination, to the extent permitted by Chenghe Articles. In any of such circumstances, it would be in the discretion of Chenghe, acting through Chenghe Board, to grant its consent or waive its rights. The existence of the financial and personal interests of the directors described elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the directors between what he or she may believe is best for Chenghe and its shareholders and what he or she may believe is best for himself or herself or his or her affiliates in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, Chenghe does not believe there will be any changes or waivers that its directors and officers would be likely to make after shareholder approval of the Business Combination has been obtained. While certain changes could be made without further shareholder approval, if there were a change to the terms of the Business Combination that would have a material impact on the shareholders, a new or amended proxy statement or supplement thereto will be required to be circulated and Chenghe will need to resolicit the vote of its shareholders with respect to the Business Combination Proposal.

Chenghe Board did not obtain a third-party fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Business Combination.

Chenghe Board did not obtain a third-party fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination. In analyzing the Business Combination, Chenghe Board and the management conducted due diligence on Chenghe and researched the industry in which TCO operates and concluded that the Business Combination was fair to and in the best interests of its shareholders. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of Chenghe Board and the management in valuing TCO’s business, and Chenghe Board and the management may not have properly valued such business. The lack of a third-party fairness opinion may lead an increased number of Chenghe’s shareholders to vote against the proposed Business Combination or demand redemption of their Public Shares for cash, which could potentially impact Chenghe’s ability to consummate the Business Combination or materially and adversely affect the liquidity of the Post-Closing Company.

Table of Contents

The Business Combination may be completed, even though material adverse effects may result from the announcement of the Business Combination, industry-wide changes and other causes.

In general, Chenghe may refuse to complete the Business Combination if certain types of changes or conditions that constitute a material adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations or condition of TCO occur between the signing date of the Business Combination Agreement and the planned Closing. However, other types of changes do not permit Chenghe to refuse to consummate the Business Combination, even if such change could be said to have a material adverse effect on TCO, including the following events (except, in certain cases where the change has a disproportionate effect on a party):

• any change in applicable laws or generally accepted accounting principles or any interpretation thereof;

• any change in interest rates or economic, political, business or financial market conditions generally;

• any natural disaster (including hurricanes, storms, tornados, flooding, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or similar occurrences), pandemic;

• any acts of terrorism or war, the outbreak or escalation of hostilities;

• with respect to certain representations specified in the Business Combination Agreement, the announcement of the Business Combination Agreement and consummation of the Transactions, including any termination of, reduction in or similar adverse impact (but in each case only to the extent attributable to such announcement or consummation) on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with any landlords, customers, suppliers or employees of TCO; or

• any action taken by, or at the written request of Chenghe.

Furthermore, Chenghe may waive the occurrence of a material adverse effect affecting TCO and consummate the Business Combination despite the occurrence of such event. If a material adverse effect affecting TCO occurs and the parties still consummate the Business Combination, the market trading price of the Post-Closing Company’s securities may suffer.

Delays in completing the Business Combination may substantially reduce the expected benefits of the Business Combination.

Satisfying the conditions to, and completion of, the Business Combination may take longer than, and could cost more than, Chenghe expects. Any delay in completing or any additional conditions imposed in order to complete the Business Combination may materially and adversely affect the benefits that Chenghe expects to achieve from the Business Combination.

Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respective affiliates may elect to purchase shares or SPAC Public Warrants from Public Shareholders, which could have a depressive effect on Chenghe’s securities.

Subject to Rule 14e-5 of the Exchange Act, at any time prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Chenghe or its securities or otherwise, Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respective affiliates may purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or SPAC Public Warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market, although they are under no obligation to do so. Such a purchase of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may include a contractual acknowledgment that such shareholder, although still the record holder of Chenghe’s shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. Such a purchase of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be made at a price per share no higher than the per share redemption price offered to Public Shareholders through the redemption process. The purpose of such purchases and other transactions would be to minimize redemptions of SPAC Public Shares and to ensure that Chenghe has in excess of $5,000,001 of net tangible assets if it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. Any SPAC Public Shares held by or subsequently purchased by Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respective affiliates will not be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and other proposals. None of Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respective affiliates may make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material nonpublic information not disclosed to the seller or during a restricted period under Regulation M under the Exchange Act. If any purchases was made, Chenghe

Table of Contents

will disclose in a Form 8-K, prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, (i) the amount of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares so purchased by Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO, or their respective affiliates, along with the purchase price; (ii) the purpose of such purchases; (iii) the impact, if any, of such purchases by Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors and officers, TCO and their respectively affiliates on the likelihood that the Business Combination will be approved; (iv) the identities of Public Shareholders who sold to Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respectively affiliates (if not purchased on the open market) or the nature of Public Shareholders (e.g. holders of 5% SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or more) who sold to Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respectively affiliates; and (v) the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for which Chenghe has received redemption request pursuant to its redemption offer. For more discussion on the purchase of SPAC Class A Shares by Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, or their respective affiliates, see “Business of SPAC and Certain Information About SPAC — Shareholder Approval of the Business Combination.” Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. For example, as a result of these arrangements, an investor or holder may have the ability to effectively purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares at a price lower than market and may therefore be more likely to sell the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares he owns prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting. As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, none of Chenghe’s Sponsor, directors or officers, TCO or their respectively affiliates has made any purchase of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, and neither of Chenghe or TCO is aware of any intention to make any such purchase.

Because Chenghe and CayCo are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, including in the event the Business Combination is not completed, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited.

Both Chenghe and CayCo are exempted companies incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Chenghe’s and/or CayCo’s directors or officers, or to enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against Chenghe’s and/or CayCo’s directors or officers.

The corporate affairs of both Chenghe and CayCo are governed by their respective memorandum and articles of association, the Cayman Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. Chenghe is also subject to the federal securities laws of the United States. The rights of the Chenghe’s or CayCo’s shareholders to take action against Chenghe’s directors, actions by minority Chenghe’s or CayCo’s shareholders and the fiduciary duties of Chenghe’s directors to Chenghe’s shareholders or CayCo’s directors to CayCo’s shareholders under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of Chenghe’s or CayCo’s shareholders and the fiduciary duties of Chenghe’s or CayCo’s directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws than to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Chenghe has been advised by Maples and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP, Chenghe’s Cayman Islands legal counsel, that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would, respectively, (1) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States or (2) entertain original actions brought in the Cayman Islands or the PRC against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Chenghe have been advised by Maples and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the federal or state courts of the United States (and the Cayman Islands are not a party to any treaties for the reciprocal enforcement or recognition of such judgments), a judgment obtained in such jurisdiction will be recognized and enforced in the courts of the Cayman Islands at common law, without any reexamination of the merits of the underlying dispute, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment debt in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay a liquidated sum for which judgment has been given, provided such judgment (a) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction, (b) imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given, (c) is final and conclusive, (d) is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty, and (e) was not obtained in a manner and is not of

Table of Contents

a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records (other than the memorandum and articles of association and any special resolutions passed by such companies, and the register of mortgages and charges of such companies) or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of these companies. Chenghe’s or CayCo’s directors have discretion under their respective memorandum and articles of association to determine whether or not, and under what conditions, their respective corporate records may be inspected by their shareholders, but are not obliged to make them available to their shareholders. This may make it more difficult for Chenghe’s shareholders and shareholders of CayCo to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

As a result of all of the above, Chenghe’s shareholders and shareholders of CayCo may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a corporation incorporated in the United States.

Certain judgments obtained against us by Chenghe’s shareholders and shareholders of CayCo may not be enforceable.

Each of Chenghe and CayCo is a Cayman Islands company and substantially all of their respective assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, most of their current directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for Chenghe’s shareholders and shareholders of CayCo to bring an action against them or against these individuals in the United States in the event that they believe that their rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if they are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of the PRC may render them unable to enforce a judgment against Chenghe’s or CayCo’s assets or the assets of their directors and officers.

Future resales of the CayCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination may cause the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares to drop significantly, even if CayCo’s business is doing well.

Certain shareholders of TCO and the Sponsor have entered into support agreements with CayCo, TCO and Chenghe. Pursuant to such support agreements, such TCO shareholders and the Sponsor have agreed that, during the applicable lock-up period, they will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares, or any options or warrants to purchase any share or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares, or any interest in any of the foregoing, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, owned directly by such shareholder (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which such shareholder has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC (in each case, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the applicable agreement). See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Agreements Entered Into in Connection with the Business Combination — Lock-Up Agreement.”

Further, concurrently with the closing of the Transactions under the Business Combination Agreement, CayCo, the Sponsor and certain TCO shareholders will enter into an investors rights agreement that will provide the Sponsor and the other parties thereto with customary demand registration rights and piggy-back registration rights with respect to registration statements filed by CayCo after the Closing. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Agreements Entered Into in Connection with the Business Combination — Investor Rights Agreement.”

Table of Contents

on the price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares. Further, sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares upon expiration of the applicable lock-up period could encourage short sales by market participants. Generally, short selling means selling a security, contract or commodity not owned by the seller. The seller is committed to eventually purchase the financial instrument previously sold. Short sales are used to capitalize on an expected decline in the security’s price. Short sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares could have a tendency to depress the price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares, which could increase the potential for short sales.

Chenghe cannot predict the size of future issuances of CayCo Ordinary Shares or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of CayCo Ordinary Shares will have on the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares. Sales of substantial amounts of CayCo Ordinary Shares (including those shares issued in connection with the Business Combination), or the perception that such sales could occur, may materially and adversely affect prevailing market prices of CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Chenghe and TCO will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination.

Chenghe and TCO have both incurred and expect to incur significant non-recurring costs in connection with consummating the Transactions and operating as a public company following the consummation of the Transactions. TCO may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. All expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions, including all legal, accounting, consulting, investment banking and other fees, expenses and costs, will be for the account of the party incurring such fees, expenses and costs or allocated between Chenghe and TCO pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Ancillary Documents.

Subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, the Post-Closing Company may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructure its operations and incur impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations and the Post-Closing Company’s share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

Although Chenghe has conducted extensive due diligence on TCO, Chenghe cannot assure you that this diligence will surface all material issues that may be present in TCO’s business, that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of TCO’s business and outside of its control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, the Post-Closing Company may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure its operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in its reporting losses. Even if Chenghe’s due diligence successfully identified certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with Chenghe’s preliminary risk analysis. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and would not have an immediate impact on the Post-Closing Company’s liquidity, the fact that the Post-Closing Company reports charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions of the Post-Closing Company or its securities. In addition, charges of this nature may cause the Post-Closing Company to violate net worth or other covenants to which the Post-Closing Company may be subject. Accordingly, any shareholders who choose to remain shareholders following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares. Such shareholders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.

The CayCo Ordinary Shares to be received by Chenghe’s shareholders as a result of the Business Combination will have different rights from SPAC Ordinary Shares.

Following completion of the Business Combination, Chenghe’s shareholders will no longer be shareholders of Chenghe but will instead be shareholders of CayCo. There will be important differences between your current rights as a Chenghe shareholder and your rights as a CayCo shareholder. See “Comparison of Rights of CayCo Shareholders and Chenghe Shareholders” for a discussion of the different rights associated with the CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Chenghe’s shareholders will have a reduced ownership after consummation of the Business Combination and will exercise less influence over management.

After the completion of the Business Combination, Chenghe’s shareholders will own a smaller percentage of the Post-Closing Company than they currently own in Chenghe.

Table of Contents

Assuming none of the Public Shareholders demand redemption pursuant to the Chenghe Articles, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 60.50% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 16.92% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 13.43% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will hold approximately 9.15% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

Assuming intermediate redemptions by Public Shareholders, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 64.85 % of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 18.14% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 7.20% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will hold approximately 9.81% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

Assuming maximum redemptions by Public Shareholders, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants at the closing of the Business Combination, it is anticipated that (i) TCO’s existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 68.35% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (ii) the Sponsor and its affiliates holding the Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants will hold approximately 19.11% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; (iii) our Public Shareholders will hold approximately 2.20% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital; and (iv) the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will hold approximately 10.34% of the Post-Closing Company’s total issued and outstanding share capital.

In addition, such ownership could be further reduced as a result of issuance of additional CayCo Ordinary Shares. Consequently, SPAC Public Shareholders, as a group, will have reduced ownership in the Post-Closing Company compared to their ownership in Chenghe.

SPAC Public Shareholders who redeem their SPAC Public Shares may continue to hold the SPAC Public Warrants, which will result in additional dilution to non-redeeming SPAC Public Shareholders upon exercise.

Assuming maximum redemptions by the SPAC Public Shareholders and all the redeeming SPAC Public Shareholders continuing to hold the SPAC Public Warrants they own, an aggregate of 6,328,261 CayCo Warrants would be retained by these shareholders. The actual market price of the SPAC Warrants may be higher or lower on the date that holders seek to sell such SPAC Warrants. As a result, the redeeming SPAC Public Shareholders could recoup their entire investment and continue to hold CayCo Warrants, while non-redeeming SPAC Public Shareholders could suffer additional dilution in their percentage ownership and voting interest of the Post-Closing Company upon exercise of the CayCo Warrants held by redeeming SPAC Public Shareholders. Further, while the level of redemptions of Public Shares will not directly change the value of the SPAC Warrants because the SPAC Warrants will remain outstanding regardless of the level of redemptions, as redemptions of Public Shares increase, a holder of SPAC Warrants who exercises such SPAC Warrants will ultimately own a greater interest in CayCo because there would be fewer shares outstanding overall.

CayCo may issue additional CayCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities without seeking approval of its shareholders, which would dilute your ownership interests and may depress the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo may choose to seek third-party financing to provide additional working capital for its business, in which event CayCo may issue additional equity securities. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo may also issue additional CayCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of equal or senior rank in the future for any reason or in connection with, among other things, future acquisitions, the redemption of outstanding warrants or repayment of outstanding indebtedness, without shareholder approval, in a number of circumstances.

Table of Contents

The issuance of additional CayCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of equal or senior rank would have the following effects:

• the proportionate ownership interest in CayCo of the existing shareholders of CayCo and Chenghe would decrease;

• the amount of cash available per share, including for payment of dividends in the future, may decrease;

• the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding CayCo Ordinary Share may be diminished; and

• the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares may decline.

Chenghe’s current directors’ and executive officers’ affiliates own SPAC Ordinary Shares that will be worthless if the Business Combination is not approved. Such interests may have influenced their decision to approve the Business Combination.

If the Business Combination or another business combination is not consummated by the Extended Deadline, Chenghe will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the issued and outstanding Public Shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidating and dissolving. In such event, the 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor and certain of Chenghe’s directors, officers, senior advisor and chairman of advisory board which were acquired prior to the SPAC IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, and the 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor, which were acquired concurrently with the SPAC IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $7.75 million, would be worthless because the holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares are not entitled to participate in any redemption or liquidating distribution with respect to these shares and the SPAC Private Placement Warrants will not be exercisable. On the other hand, if the Business Combination is consummated, each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time will be automatically converted into one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, and each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, including those issued upon the automatic conversion of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares described above, will convert into one CayCo Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment described herein, and each SPAC Warrant will be converted into a CayCo Warrant at the Closing. Based on the closing price for the Public Shares of $10.99 on the Nasdaq on December 20, 2023, the value of the Founder Shares would be $31,596,250. Given (i) the differential in the purchase price that the Sponsor and certain of Chenghe’s directors, officers, senior advisor and chairman of advisory board paid for the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares as compared to the price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, (ii) the differential in the purchase price that the Sponsor paid for the SPAC Private Placement Warrants as compared to the price of the SPAC Public Warrants, and (iii) the substantial number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that the Sponsor and these directors will receive upon conversion of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and/or SPAC Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor and these directors can earn a positive return on their investment, even if SPAC Public Shareholders have a negative return on their investment.

These financial interests may have influenced the decision of Chenghe Board to approve the Business Combination and could incentivize Chenghe’s officers and directors to pursue a business combination with a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to non-redeeming shareholders rather than liquidate. In considering the recommendations of Chenghe Board to vote for the Business Combination Proposal and other proposals, its shareholders should consider these interests. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

The Sponsor, an affiliate of certain current officers and directors of Chenghe, is liable to ensure that proceeds of the Trust Account are not reduced by vendor claims in the event the Business Combination is not consummated. Such liability may have influenced Chenghe Board’s decision to pursue the Business Combination and Chenghe Board’s to approve it.

If the Business Combination or another business combination is not consummated by Chenghe on or before the Extended Deadline, the Sponsor, an affiliate of current officers and directors of Chenghe, will be liable to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or claims of vendors or other entities that are owed money by Chenghe for services rendered or contracted for or for products sold to Chenghe, but

Table of Contents

only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver agreement. If Chenghe consummates a business combination, on the other hand, Chenghe or the Post-Closing Company will be liable for all such claims. Chenghe has no reason to believe that the Sponsor will not be able to fulfill its indemnity obligations to Chenghe.

These obligations of the Sponsor may have influenced Chenghe Board decision to pursue the Business Combination with TCO or Chenghe Board decision to approve the Business Combination. In considering the recommendations of Chenghe Board to vote for the Business Combination Proposal and other proposals, shareholders should consider these interests. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

Chenghe’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of the Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to SPAC Public Shareholders in the event a business combination is not consummated.

If proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below $10.30 per Public Share and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Chenghe’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Chenghe currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on Chenghe’s behalf against the Sponsor to enforce the Sponsor’s indemnification obligations, it is possible that Chenghe’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. If Chenghe’s independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to SPAC Public Shareholders may be reduced below $10.30 per share.

Chenghe and CayCo have no history operating as a Post-Closing Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information may not be an indication of CayCo’s financial condition or results of operations following the Business Combination, and accordingly, you have limited financial information on which to evaluate CayCo and your investment decision.

CayCo and Chenghe have no prior history as a combined entity, and their operations have not been previously managed on a combined basis. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement has been prepared using the consolidated historical financial statements of Chenghe and CayCo, and is presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be considered to be an indication of the results of operations, including, without limitation, future revenue, or financial condition of Chenghe following the Business Combination. Certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding Chenghe after giving effect to the Business Combination. CayCo and Chenghe believe these assumptions are reasonable. However, the information upon which these adjustments and assumptions have been made is preliminary, and these kinds of adjustments are difficult to make with accuracy. These assumptions may not prove to be accurate, and other factors may affect Chenghe’s results of operations or financial condition following the consummation of the Business Combination. For these and other reasons, the historical and pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement does not necessarily reflect CayCo’s results of operations and financial condition, and the actual financial condition and results of operations of CayCo following the Business Combination may not be consistent with, or evident from, this pro forma financial information.

The Sponsor and certain officers, directors, senior advisor and chairman of advisory board of Chenghe have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how SPAC Public Shareholders vote.

After the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Sponsor and certain officers, directors, senior advisor and chairman of advisory board of Chenghe own and are entitled to vote an aggregate of approximately 25.4% on an as-converted basis of the issued and outstanding SPAC Ordinary Shares. These holders have agreed to vote their SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal pursuant to that certain letter agreement dated April 27, 2022, entered into at the closing of the SPAC IPO. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement entered into in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor have also agreed to vote their shares in favor of all each of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals being presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Accordingly, it is more likely that the necessary shareholder approval for the Business Combination Proposal and the other proposals will be received than would be the case if these holders agreed to vote their SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by SPAC Public Shareholders.

Table of Contents

Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect Chenghe’s business, including its ability to negotiate and complete its initial business combination, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Chenghe is subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional and local governments. In particular, Chenghe is required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on Chenghe’s business, investments and results of operations. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on Chenghe’s business, including its ability to negotiate and complete its initial business combination, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules relating to, among other items, enhancing disclosures in business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies and increasing the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions. These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may materially increase the costs and time required to negotiate and complete an initial business combination and could potentially impair Chenghe’s ability to complete an initial business combination.

The initial business combination may be delayed or ultimately prohibited since such initial business combination may be subject to regulatory review and approval requirements, including pursuant to foreign investment regulations and review by governmental entities such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”).

Certain investments that involve, directly or indirectly, the acquisition of, or investment in, a U.S. business by a non-U.S. investor may be subject to review and approval by CFIUS. Whether CFIUS has jurisdiction to review an acquisition or investment transaction depends on, among other factors, the nature and structure of the transaction, including the level of beneficial ownership interest and the nature of any information or governance rights involved. For example, investments that result in “control” of a U.S. business by a foreign person always are subject to CFIUS jurisdiction. Significant CFIUS reform legislation, which was fully implemented through regulations that became effective on February 13, 2020, expanded the scope of CFIUS’s jurisdiction to investments that do not result in control of a U.S. business by a foreign person but afford certain foreign investors certain information or governance rights in a U.S. business that has a nexus to “critical technologies,” certain “critical infrastructure” and/or “sensitive personal data.”

If a potential initial business combination falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, the parties may be required to make a mandatory filing or determine to submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. The Sponsor is a Cayman Islands limited liability company whose sole member is Chenghe Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands incorporated company controlled by Richard Qi Li, our chairman of the board. Mr. Li is a foreign person under the CFIUS regulations. Except as disclosed herein, the Sponsor has no other substantial ties with a non-U.S. person. While TCO and Chenghe do not believe that the initial business combination would be subject to the jurisdiction of CFIUS because, post-closing, neither Chenghe nor its investors will have any rights that trigger CFIUS’ jurisdiction (under 31 C.F.R. §§ 800.208, 211), if CFIUS decides to make an inquiry regarding the initial business combination and determines that it has jurisdiction over Chenghe’s initial business combination, CFIUS may decide to block or delay Chenghe’s initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order it to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company if it had proceeded without first obtaining CFIUS clearance. The likelihood of a CFIUS inquiry concerning a potential business combination transaction generally tends to be higher if one or more “control” persons of a sponsor is from Hong Kong or the PRC, as is the case with Chenghe; Mr. Li is a permanent resident of Hong Kong.

The process of government review, whether by CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy. Because Chenghe has only a limited time to complete its initial business combination, its failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time period may require it to liquidate. If Chenghe liquidates, its Public Shareholders may only receive the redemption value per share, and its warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause investors to lose any potential investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on Chenghe’s shareholders’ investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

SPAC Public Warrants have been delisted from Nasdaq.

On June 13, 2023, Chenghe received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that since the aggregate market value of the outstanding SPAC Public Warrants was less than $1 million, Chenghe was no longer in compliance with the Nasdaq Global Market continued listing criteria set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5452(b)(C) (the “Market Value Rule”), which requires Chenghe to maintain an aggregate market value of its outstanding warrants of at least $1 million (the “Notice”). The Notice serves only as a notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of SPAC Public Warrants on the Nasdaq. Additionally, the Notice relates only to SPAC Public Warrants and will have no effect on the listing or trading of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

Chenghe has been given 45 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until July 28, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Market Value Rule. Chenghe has not submitted such plan on or prior to July 28, 2023. In the event Chenghe fails to demonstrate compliance with the Market Value Rule within the prescribed period, Nasdaq could provide notice that SPAC Public Warrants will be delisted (a “Delisting Notice”). If Chenghe receives a Delisting Notice, Chenghe may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, Chenghe has not submitted a plan to regain compliance with the Market Value Rule. On September 12, 2023, the Company received the Delisting Notice from Nasdaq, indicating that Nasdaq determined to commence proceedings to delist the SPAC Public Warrants from Nasdaq and that trading in the SPAC Public Warrants would be suspended at the opening of business on September 21, 2023. The Company did not appeal the delisting determination. On October 12, 2023, Nasdaq filed a notification of removal from listing on Form 25. Chenghe has not made any application to list the SPAC Public Warrants on the OTC markets. Chenghe is not aware of any plan of CayCo to apply for the listing of CayCo Warrants on any stock exchange after the Closing.

After the delisting of SPAC Public Warrants from Nasdaq, Chenghe and the holders of SPAC Public Warrants could face adverse consequences, including, among other things, reduced liquidity of SPAC Public Warrants, limited availability of market quotations for SPAC Public Warrants, and potentially becoming subject to regulation in each state in which Chenghe offer SPAC Public Warrants. The holders of SPAC Public Warrants may be unable to sell the SPAC Public Warrants held by it, him or her unless a market can be established or sustained.

Risks Related to the Redemption

If Chenghe’s shareholders fail to properly demand redemption rights, they will not be entitled to convert their Public Shares into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account.

Chenghe Shareholders holding Public Shares may demand that Chenghe convert their Public Shares into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account, calculated as of two (2) Business Days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. To demand redemption rights, Chenghe Shareholders must deliver their share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms (either physically or electronically) to Chenghe’s transfer agent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting. Any shareholder who fails to properly demand redemption rights by delivering his, her or its shares will not be entitled to convert his, her or its share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for the procedures to be followed if you wish to convert your shares to cash.

SPAC Public Shareholders, together with any affiliates of theirs or any other person with whom they are acting in concert or as a “group,” will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the Public Shares.

A SPAC Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group,” will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the Public Shares without Chenghe’s prior consent. Accordingly, if you hold more than 20% of the Public Shares and the Business Combination Proposal is approved, you will not be able to seek redemption rights with respect to the full amount of your shares and may be forced to hold the shares in excess of 20% or sell them in the open market. Chenghe cannot assure you that the value of such excess shares will appreciate over time following a business combination or that the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares will exceed the per-share redemption price.

Table of Contents

There is no guarantee that a SPAC Public Shareholder’s decision to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put the shareholder in a better future economic position.

There is no assurance as to the price at which a SPAC Public Shareholder may be able to sell its CayCo Ordinary Shares in the future following the completion of the Business Combination or shares with respect to any alternative business combination, and these shareholders could suffer a reduction in the value of their CayCo Ordinary Shares and would be unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Transactions, may cause an increase in the share price and may result in a lower value realized now than a shareholder of Chenghe might realize in the future had the shareholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a shareholder does not redeem its shares, the shareholder will bear the risk of ownership of public shares after the consummation of any initial business combination, and there can be no assurance that a shareholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. A shareholder should consult the shareholder’s tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect its individual situation.

If a shareholder fails to receive notice of Chenghe’s offer to redeem its Public Shares in connection with the Business Combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.

If, despite Chenghe’s compliance with the proxy rules, a shareholder fails to receive the proxy materials, such shareholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem its shares. In addition, this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement being furnished to holders of SPAC Public Shares in connection with the Business Combination describes the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem Public Shares. In the event that a shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed. Please see the section titled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.

Risks Related to the Post-Closing Company’s Securities

The price of CayCo A Ordinary Shares may be volatile, and the value of CayCo Ordinary Shares may decline.

CayCo cannot predict the prices at which CayCo Ordinary Shares will trade. The price of CayCo Ordinary Shares may not bear any relationship to the market price at which CayCo Ordinary Shares will trade after the Transactions or to any other established criteria of the value of its business and prospects, and the market price of CayCo Ordinary Shares following the Business Combination may fluctuate substantially and may be lower than the price agreed by Chenghe and CayCo in connection with the Transactions. In addition, the trading price of SPAC Ordinary Shares following the Business Combination could be subject to fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond its control. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in CayCo Ordinary Shares as you might be unable to sell these securities at or above the price you paid in the Transactions. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of CayCo Ordinary Shares include the following:

• actual or anticipated fluctuations in its financial condition or results of operations;

• variance in its financial performance from expectations of securities analysts;

• changes in its projected operating and financial results;

• changes in laws or regulations applicable to its business;

• announcements by CayCo or its competitors of significant business developments, acquisitions or new offerings;

• sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares by CayCo, its shareholders or its warrant holders, as well as the anticipation of lockup releases;

• significant breaches of, disruptions to or other incidents involving its information technology systems or those of its business partners;

• its involvement in litigation;

Table of Contents

• conditions or developments affecting the social consumer internet industry in the countries and regions where CayCo operates its business;

• changes in its senior management or key personnel;

• the trading volume of its securities;

• changes in the anticipated future size and growth rate of its markets;

• publication of research reports or news stories about CayCo, its competitors or its industry, or positive or negative recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage by securities analysts;

• general economic and market conditions; and

• other events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism, global pandemics or responses to these events.

Future sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination may cause the market price of CayCo Ordinary Shares to drop significantly.

After the completion of the Business Combination, Chenghe’s shareholders will own a smaller percentage of the Post-Closing Company than they currently own in Chenghe.

At the Closing, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage reaching 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants, existing CayCo shareholders, SPAC Public Shareholders the Sponsor and its affiliates and the holders of SPAC Public Warrants are expected to hold approximately 60.50%, 13.43%, 16.92%, and 9.15% of CayCo’s total share capital, respectively, assuming no redemptions, approximately 64.85%, 7.20%, 18.14% and 9.81% of CayCo’s total share capital, respectively, assuming holders of 50% of the SPAC Public Shares exercise their redemption rights with respects to their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the funds in the Trust Account, and approximately 68.34%, 2.20%, 19.11% and 10.34% of CayCo’s total issued and outstanding share capital, respectively, assuming holders of 7,213,618 SPAC Public Shares exercise their redemption rights with respects to their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the funds in the Trust Account so that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles.

Certain existing shareholders of TCO, the Sponsor and certain holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares will be subject to the Lock-Up Agreement following the Closing. Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, existing TCO shareholders, the Sponsor and certain holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares agreed that, during the applicable lock-up period, they will not, sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer, dispose of or agree to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another any of the economic consequences of ownership of certain CayCo Ordinary Shares held by existing TCO shareholders, the Sponsor and holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, respectively. See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Agreements Entered into in Connection with the Business Combination — Lock-Up Agreement.” Following the Closing, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the TCO Restructuring Closing, a total of 18,274,845 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming no redemptions), a total of 14,056,004 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming intermediate redemptions) and a total of 11,061,227 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming maximum redemptions) will immediately be freely tradeable. Assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the TCO Restructuring Closing, a total of 49,312,681 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming no redemptions) and a total of 45,093,840 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming intermediate redemptions) or a total of 42,099,063 CayCo Ordinary Shares (assuming maximum redemptions) held by these certain TCO shareholders, the Sponsor and their respective affiliates will be freely tradeable after the applicable lock-up period.

Further, at the Closing, the Sponsor and certain shareholders of CayCo and certain of their respective affiliates, as applicable, will enter into an investors rights agreement with CayCo, pursuant to which the Sponsor and the other parties thereto will have customary demand registration rights and piggy-back registration rights with respect

Table of Contents

to registration statements filed by CayCo after the Closing. See the sections of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Agreements Entered Into in Connection with the Business Combination — Investor Rights Agreement.”

Upon expiration of the applicable lock-up period and upon the effectiveness of any registration statement that CayCo files pursuant to the above-referenced registration rights agreement, in a registered offering of securities pursuant to the Securities Act or otherwise in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions), the CayCo shareholders may sell large amounts of CayCo Ordinary Shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which could have the effect of increasing the volatility in the trading price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares or putting significant downward pressure on the price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares. The effective prices at which holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares will have acquired the Post-Closing Company shares issued in respect of their SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination are generally substantially less than the SPAC IPO price. Consequently, after the lock-up period, these persons may have an incentive to sell their CayCo Ordinary Shares even if the trading price at that time is below the SPAC IPO price, which could cause downward pressure on the trading price of the Post-Closing Company shares. Further, sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares upon expiration of the applicable lockup period could encourage short sales by market participants. Generally, short selling means selling a security, contract or commodity not owned by the seller. The seller is committed to eventually purchase the financial instrument previously sold. Short sales are used to capitalize on an expected decline in the security’s price. Short sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares could have a tendency to depress the price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares, which could increase the potential for short sales.

We cannot predict the size of future issuances of CayCo Ordinary Shares or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of CayCo Ordinary Shares will have on the market price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares. Sales of substantial amounts of CayCo Ordinary Shares (including those shares issued in connection with the Business Combination), or the perception that such sales could occur, may materially and adversely affect prevailing market prices of CayCo Ordinary Shares.

An active trading market for CayCo Ordinary Shares may not develop or be sustained, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Following the Business Combination, the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly due to the market’s reaction to the Business Combination and general market and economic conditions. An active trading market for its ordinary shares following the Business Combination may never develop or, if developed, may not be sustained. The price of CayCo Ordinary Shares after the Business Combination may vary due to general economic conditions and forecasts, its general business condition and the release of its financial reports. Additionally, if the Post-Closing Company’s securities are not listed on the Stock Exchange and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange), the liquidity and price of CayCo Ordinary Shares may be more limited than if the Post-Closing Company was quoted or listed on the Stock Exchange or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established or sustained.

If CayCo does not meet the expectations of equity research analysts, if they do not publish research reports about its business or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade CayCo Ordinary Shares, the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares could decline.

The trading market for CayCo Ordinary Shares will rely in part on the research reports that equity research analysts publish about CayCo and its business. The analysts’ estimates are based upon their own opinions and are often different from CayCo’s estimates or expectations. If CayCo’s results of operations are below the estimates or expectations of equity research analysts and investors, the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares could decline. Moreover, the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares could decline if one or more equity research analysts downgrade CayCo Ordinary Shares or if those analysts issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about CayCo or its business.

CayCo’s issuance of additional share capital in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, an equity incentive plan or otherwise will dilute all other shareholders.

CayCo expects to issue additional share capital in the future that will result in dilution to all other shareholders. CayCo expects to grant equity awards to key employees under an equity incentive plan. CayCo may also raise capital through equity financings in the future. As part of its business strategy, CayCo may acquire or make investments in

Table of Contents

companies, solutions or technologies and issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition or investment. Any such issuances of additional share capital may cause shareholders to experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and the per share value of CayCo Ordinary Shares to decline.

CayCo does not have any definite timetable for the payment of any dividends, and as a result, your ability to achieve a return on your investment may depend on appreciation in the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares.

CayCo does not have any definite timetable for the payment of any dividends, and any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of its board of directors. Accordingly, you may need to rely on sales of CayCo Ordinary Shares after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on your investment.

CayCo is an “emerging growth company,” and CayCo cannot be certain if the reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make CayCo Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors.

CayCo is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. CayCo has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, CayCo, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of CayCo’s financial statements with certain other public companies difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

The Post-Closing Company will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the SPAC IPO, (b) in which the Post-Closing Company has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which the Post-Closing Company is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the Post-Closing Company’s common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last Business Day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter; and (ii) the date on which the Post-Closing Company has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

CayCo cannot predict if investors will find CayCo Ordinary Shares less attractive because CayCo relies on these exemptions. If some investors find CayCo Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for CayCo Ordinary Shares, and the price of CayCo Ordinary Shares may be more volatile.

CayCo will be a foreign private issuer, and as a result, CayCo will not be subject to U.S. proxy rules and will be subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of a U.S. domestic public company.

Upon the closing of the Transactions, CayCo will report under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Because CayCo qualifies as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, CayCo is exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including, among others, (1) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act, (2) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time, and (3) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information. In addition, foreign private issuers are not

Table of Contents

required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 75 days after the end of each fiscal year, and U.S. domestic issuers that are large accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year. As a result of all of the above, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of a company that is not a foreign private issuer.

As CayCo is a “foreign private issuer” and intends to follow certain home country corporate governance practices, its shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all corporate governance requirements of the Stock Exchange.

As a foreign private issuer, CayCo has the option to follow Cayman Islands law rather than those of the Stock Exchange for certain governance matters, provided that CayCo discloses the requirements CayCo is not following and describe the home country practices CayCo is following. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands may differ significantly from corporate governance listing standards, except for general fiduciary duties and duties of care. If CayCo chooses to follow home country practices in the future, its shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would have under corporate governance listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

CayCo may lose its foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses.

As discussed above, CayCo is a foreign private issuer, and therefore, CayCo is not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last Business Day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter. In the future, CayCo would lose its foreign private issuer status if (1) more than 50% of its outstanding voting securities are owned by U.S. residents and (2) a majority of its directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents, a majority of its assets are located in the U.S., or its business is administered principally in the U.S. If CayCo loses its foreign private issuer status, CayCo will be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. CayCo will also have to mandatorily comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and its officers, directors and principal shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, CayCo will lose its ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under the listing rules of the Stock Exchange (the “Listing Rules”). A U.S.-listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer will incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that a foreign private issuer will not incur.

CayCo does not intend to make any determinations on whether CayCo or its subsidiaries are CFCs for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

CayCo does not intend to make any determinations on whether CayCo or any of its subsidiaries are treated as “controlled foreign corporations” within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code (“CFCs”), or whether any U.S. Holder of CayCo Ordinary Shares is treated as a “United States shareholder” within the meaning of Section 951(b) of the Code with respect to any such CFC. CayCo does not expect to furnish to any U.S. Holder of CayCo Ordinary Shares information that may be necessary to comply with applicable reporting and tax paying obligations with respect to CFCs. The IRS has provided limited guidance regarding the circumstances in which investors may rely on publicly available information to comply with their reporting and taxpaying obligations with respect to CFCs. U.S. Holders of CayCo Ordinary Shares should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to their particular circumstances.

If CayCo or any of its subsidiaries are characterized as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders may suffer adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

A non-U.S. corporation generally will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in any taxable year if either (1) at least 75% of its gross income for such year is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the value of its assets (generally based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Based on the 2022 composition of the income, assets and operations of TCO and its subsidiaries, TCO does not believe TCO will be treated as a PFIC for the taxable year that

Table of Contents

includes the Business Combination, however there can be no assurances in this regard or any assurances that TCO or CayCo will not be treated as a PFIC in any future taxable year. Moreover, the application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects, and CayCo cannot assure you that the IRS will not take a contrary position or that a court will not sustain such a challenge by the IRS.

Whether CayCo or any of its subsidiaries are a PFIC for any taxable year is a factual determination that depends on, among other things, the composition of its income and assets, its market value and the market value of its subsidiaries’ shares and assets. Changes in CayCo’s composition, the composition of its income or the composition of any of its subsidiaries’ assets may cause CayCo to be or become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years. Whether CayCo is treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a factual determination that must be made annually at the close of each taxable year and, thus, is subject to significant uncertainty.

If CayCo is a PFIC for any taxable year, a U.S. Holder of CayCo Ordinary Shares may be subject to adverse tax consequences and may incur certain information reporting obligations. U.S. Holders of CayCo Ordinary Shares are strongly encouraged to consult their own advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to CayCo and the ownership of CayCo Ordinary Shares.

The Merger may not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, and the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger may not qualify as a transfer of property described in Section 351 of the Code, in which case U.S. Holders of Chenghe Securities generally would recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

It is intended that (1) the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger qualify as a transfer of property described in Section 351 of the Code and (2) the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The parties intend to report the Transactions in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment. However, legal counsel to SPAC is unable to opine regarding the qualification of the Merger and the TCO Restructuring for the Intended Tax Treatment because there are significant factual and legal uncertainties as to whether the Transactions will qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. Moreover, qualification of the Transactions for the Intended Tax Treatment is based on certain facts that will not be known until or following the closing of the Business Combination, and the closing of the Business Combination is not conditioned upon the receipt of an opinion of counsel that the Transactions qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment, and neither Chenghe nor TCO intends to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Transactions.

Table of Contents

significant legal uncertainty due to a lack of clear authority on point as to whether the Merger together with the TCO Restructuring will qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge the Intended Tax Treatment or that a court will not sustain a challenge by the IRS.

If the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger does not qualify as a transfer of property described in Section 351 and the Merger does not meet the requirements to qualify under Section 368(a) of the Code, then a U.S. Holder of Chenghe securities generally would recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the fair market value of CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants received in the Business Combination over such U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the corresponding SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants surrendered by such U.S. Holder in the Business Combination.

If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code but qualifies (along with the TCO Restructuring) as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, the treatment of a U.S. Holder’s exchange of SPAC Warrants for CayCo Warrants in connection with the Merger is uncertain. It is possible that a U.S. Holder could be treated as transferring its SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants in exchange for CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code. In such case, such U.S. Holder generally would be required to recognize gain (but not loss), computed on an asset by asset basis with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of gain realized by such U.S. Holder (generally, the excess of (x) the fair market values of the CayCo Warrants or the CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable, received by such holder, over (y) such holder’s adjusted tax basis in the CayCo Warrants or CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable, exchanged therefor) and (ii) the appropriate allocation to the SPAC Ordinary Shares or SPAC Warrants, as applicable, of the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants treated as having been received by such holder in such exchange. For purposes of determining the appropriate allocation of the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants describe in the preceding clause (ii), the holder allocates the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants between the SPAC Ordinary Shares and the SPAC Warrants based on the proportionate fair market values of the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants exchanged in the Merger. It is also possible that a U.S. Holder could be treated as exchanging its CayCo Warrants for “new” warrants (i.e., CayCo Warrants) in a taxable transaction that is distinct from the exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares for CayCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Merger. In such case, the U.S. Holder should be required to recognize gain or loss in such deemed exchange in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants held by such U.S. Holder immediately following the Merger and the adjusted tax basis of the SPAC Warrants held by such U.S. Holder immediately prior to the Merger.

Additionally, even if the Intended Tax Treatment is respected, proposed Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 1291(f) of the Code (which have a retroactive effective date) generally require that, unless certain elections have been made by a U.S. Holder, a U.S. Holder who disposes of stock of a PFIC must recognize gain equal to the excess of the fair market value of such PFIC stock over its adjusted tax basis, notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. Given the anticipated structure of the Business Combination, the startup exception is not expected to apply to Chenghe and consequently Chenghe is expected to be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the 2022 taxable year and future taxable years. If Chenghe is classified as a PFIC, these proposed Treasury Regulations, if finalized in their current form, would generally require a U.S. Holder of Chenghe securities to recognize gain under the PFIC rules on the exchange of Chenghe securities for CayCo securities pursuant to the Business Combination unless such U.S. Holder has made certain tax elections with respect to such U.S. Holder’s SPAC Ordinary Shares. Any gain recognized from the application of the PFIC rules would be taxable income with no corresponding receipt of cash. The tax on any such gain would be imposed at the rate applicable to ordinary income and an interest charge would apply based on complex rules designed to offset the tax deferral to such U.S. Holder on the undistributed earnings, if any, of Chenghe at this time whether, in what form, and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code may be adopted or how any such Treasury Regulations would apply.

For a detailed discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Business Combination for U.S. Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares that do not exercise their redemption rights, see the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.” U.S. Holders of Chenghe securities should consult their tax advisors to determine the tax consequences if the Business Combination does not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment and if the PFIC rules apply to their specific situations in connection with the Business Combination.

Table of Contents

25052644, and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Chenghe with Chenghe being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (the “Merger”), and Chenghe will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.” (the “Business Combination”). The Business Combination and other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to as the “Transactions.” A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached as Annex A to the accompanying Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and a copy of the Plan of Merger is attached as Annex A-1 to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement;

• Proposal No. 4 — The Articles Amendment Proposals — to consider and vote upon, as special resolutions, two separate proposals to approve, with effect from the effective time of the Merger:

(a) the change of name of Chenghe from “Chenghe Acquisition Co.” to “SEMILUX LTD.”; and

Recommendation to Shareholders

The SPAC Board has determined that each of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals is fair to and in the best interest of SPAC and its shareholders and recommended that SPAC Shareholders vote “FOR” each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Merger Proposal, the Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal, and the Articles Amendment Proposals, and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, if presented.

Table of Contents

believe that such interests would preclude them from approving the Business Combination or from recommending the Business Combination to SPAC Shareholders, considering that these interests would be disclosed in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. SPAC Shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. These interests include, among other things:

• the right of the SPAC Initial Shareholders to hold the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

prospective target businesses with which SPAC has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or claims of any third party (other than its independent public accountants) for services rendered or products sold to SPAC, provided that such indemnification will not apply to any claims by a third party that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account, nor will it apply to any claims under indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act;

• the Sponsor (including its representatives and affiliates) and SPAC’s officers and directors are, or in the future may become, affiliated with entities that are engaged in similar business to SPAC. For example, Mr. Richard Qi Li also serves as a director and the chief executive officer of HH&L Acquisition Co, a NYSE-listed special purpose acquisition company. In addition, on October 6, 2023, Chenghe Sponsor I, acquired (i) 2,650,000 Class B ordinary shares of Chenghe SPAC I, a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company, and (ii) 7,900,000 private placement warrants of Chenghe SPAC I, from LatAmGrowth Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and following such acquisition, Chenghe Sponsor I became the sponsor of Chenghe SPAC I, and appointed Ms. Anna Zhou as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Chenghe SPAC I, Dr. Shibin Wang as a director and the chairman of the board of director of Chenghe SPAC I, each of Mr. Ning Ma and Mr. Kwan Sun as an independent director of Chenghe SPAC I to replace the then-current directors and officers of Chenghe SPAC I. The Sponsor and its officers and directors are not prohibited from sponsoring, or otherwise becoming involved with, another blank check company prior to SPAC completing its initial business combination. SPAC’s officers and directors may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to SPAC, and the other entities to which they owe certain fiduciary or contractual duties. Accordingly, they may have had conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in SPAC’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to SPAC, subject to application fiduciary duties under Cayman Companies Act. SPAC MAA provide that SPAC renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any officer or director of SPAC. This waiver allows SPAC’s officers and directors to allocate opportunities based on a combination of the objectives and fundraising needs of the target, as well as the investment objectives of the entity. SPAC does not believe that the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine otherwise had a material impact on its search for an acquisition target.

• the fact that SPAC has entered into a registration rights agreement with the SPAC Initial Shareholders, which provides for customary registration rights to them and their permitted transferees.

Vote of SPAC’s Sponsor, Directors and Officers

Prior to SPAC IPO, SPAC entered into agreements with the holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, pursuant to which each agreed to vote any SPAC Ordinary Shares owned by them in favor of an initial business combination of SPAC. Each has also waived any redemption rights, including with respect to SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares purchased in SPAC IPO or in the aftermarket, in connection with the Business Combination. The SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by the SPAC Initial Shareholders have no redemption rights upon SPAC’s liquidation and will be worthless if no business combination is effected by the SPAC Termination Date. However, the SPAC Initial Shareholders are entitled to redemption rights upon SPAC liquidation with respect to any SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares they may own if no business combination is effected by the SPAC Termination Date.

Voting Power; Record Date

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on December 20, 2023, the Record Date for the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, will be entitled to vote at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting.

Each SPAC Ordinary Share owned as of the close of business on the Record Date is entitled to one vote. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the Record Date, there were 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding and 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. All SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares as of the Record Date were held by SPAC Initial Shareholders.

Quorum and Required Vote

A quorum is the minimum number of SPAC Ordinary Shares that must be present to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if the holders of at least one-third of the issued and outstanding SPAC Ordinary Shares on the Record Date are present in person (including virtually) or by proxy at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. Abstentions will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. Broker non-votes will not count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum. SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to vote together as a single class on all matters to be considered at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. Voting on all resolutions at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting will be conducted by way of a poll vote. Shareholders will have one vote for each SPAC Ordinary Shares owned at the close of business on the Record Date.

Under Cayman Islands law and pursuant to SPAC MAA, each of the Merger Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposals will require a special resolution, being the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least two-thirds of SPAC Ordinary Shares which are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting at which a quorum is present. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Authorized Share Capital Amendment Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal will require an ordinary resolution, being the affirmative vote of shareholders holding a majority of SPAC Ordinary Shares which are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting at which a quorum is present.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions are considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not constitute a vote cast at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and therefore will have no effect on the approval of each of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals as a matter of Cayman Islands law. Broker non-votes do not count as votes cast.

In general, if your shares are held in “street name” and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on a timely basis on how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other nominee, in its sole discretion, may either leave your shares unvoted or vote your shares on routine matters, but not on any non-routine matters. None of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting are routine matters. As such, without your voting instructions, your brokerage firm cannot vote your shares on any proposal to be voted on at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting.

Voting Your Shares

If you are a holder of record of SPAC Ordinary Shares, there are two ways to vote your ordinary shares at the Extraordinary General Meeting:

• By Mail. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying pre-addressed postage paid envelope so that it is received no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (or, in the case of an adjournment, no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the adjourned meeting). If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted “FOR” all of the proposals in accordance with the recommendation of SPAC Board. Proxy cards received after the time specified above will not be counted.

• In Person. You may attend the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and vote in person, including virtually over the Internet by joining the live audio webcast and vote electronically by submitting a ballot through the web portal during the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting webcast. You may attend the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting webcast by accessing the web portal located at https://www.cstproxy.com/chengheacquisition/sm2024 and following the instructions set forth on your proxy card.

Revoking Your Proxy

If you are a holder of record of SPAC Ordinary Shares and you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:

• You may send another signed proxy card to SPAC Transfer Agent at the address set forth herein so that it is received no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (or, in the case of an adjournment, no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the adjourned meeting);

Table of Contents

• You may notify SPAC Board in writing, prior to the vote at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, that you have revoked your proxy; or

• You may attend the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and vote in person, including over the Internet by joining the live audio webcast and vote electronically by submitting a ballot through the web portal during the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, although your attendance alone will not revoke any proxy that you have previously given.

If you hold your SPAC Class A ordinary shares in “street name,” you may submit new instructions on how to vote your shares by contacting your broker, bank or other nominee.

Who Can Answer Your Questions about Voting Your Shares

If you have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your ordinary shares, you may call Morrow Sodali, SPAC’s proxy solicitor, at +1 (800) 662-5200, or banks and brokers can call at +1 (203) 658-9400, or by emailing CHEA.info@investor.morrowsodali.com.

Redemption Rights

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may seek to redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, regardless of whether they vote for or against, or whether they abstain from voting on, the Business Combination Proposal. Any holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may demand that SPAC redeem such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds deposited in the Trust Account (which, for illustrative purposes, was $10.98 per share as of the Record Date), calculated as of two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated consummation of the Business Combination. If a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares properly seeks redemption as described in this section and the Business Combination is consummated, SPAC will redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account and the holder will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination.

In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must:

• if you hold SPAC Units, separate the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants;

• check the box on the enclosed proxy card marked “Shareholder Certification” if you are not acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) with any other shareholder with respect to ordinary shares; and

• prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 31, 2024 (two (2) Business Days before the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting), tender your shares by either delivering their share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to SPAC Transfer Agent or by delivering your shares electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System. Shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the SPAC Transfer Agent and time to effect delivery. It is understood that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the SPAC Transfer Agent. However, we do not have any control over this process, and it may take longer than two weeks. Shareholders who hold their shares in “street name” will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically.

SPAC Transfer Agent can be contacted at the following address:

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
1 State Street 30th Floor
New York New York 10004
Attn: SPAC Redemption Team
Email: spacredemptions@continentalstock.com

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

Table of Contents

Accordingly, all SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in excess of 20% held by a shareholder, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group,” will not be redeemed for cash. Holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares s also will not have redemption rights with respect to such shares.

There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. SPAC Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80.00, and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the Business Combination is not consummated this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.

The requirement for physical or electronic delivery prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting ensures that a redeeming shareholder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once the Business Combination is approved. If you do not submit a written request and deliver your SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares as described above, your shares will not be redeemed. If you exercise your redemption rights, then you will be exchanging your shares for cash and will no longer own those shares. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if, prior to the deadline for submitting redemption requests, you properly demand redemption by following the procedure described above, and the Business Combination is consummated.

Any request to redeem such shares, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to the deadline for submitting redemption requests, which is January 31, 2024, (two (2) Business Days prior to the date of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting), and thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing. Furthermore, if a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares delivered its share certificate and other redemption forms to the SPAC Transfer Agent or delivered its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System in connection with an election of its redemption and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, it may simply request that the SPAC Transfer Agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

If the Business Combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then shareholders who appointed to exercise their redemption rights will not be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds deposited in the Trust Account. In such case, SPAC will promptly return any shares tendered for redemption by shareholders. If SPAC would be left with less than $5,000,001 of net tangible assets as a result of shareholders properly demanding redemption of their shares for cash, SPAC will not be able to consummate the Business Combination. For further discussion of the net tangible assets requirement, please see “Questions and Answers About the Business Combination and the Extraordinary General Meeting — What happens if a substantial number of Public Shareholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?”

The closing price of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on the Record Date was $10.99. The cash held in the Trust Account on such date was approximately $92,685,029.44 ($10.98 per share). Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. There is no assurance that you will be able to sell your SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in SPAC’s securities when you wish to sell your shares.

For a detailed discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations for shareholders with respect to the exercise of these redemption rights, see the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.” The consequences of a redemption to any particular shareholder will depend on that shareholder’s particular facts and circumstances. Accordingly, you should consult your tax advisor to determine your tax consequences from the exercise of your redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax laws in light of your particular circumstances.

Appraisal Rights under the Cayman Companies Act

The Cayman Companies Act prescribes when shareholder appraisal rights will be available and sets the limitations on such rights. Where such rights are available, shareholders are entitled to receive fair value for their shares. However, regardless of whether such rights are or are not available, shareholders are still entitled to exercise the rights of redemption as set out herein, and SPAC Board has determined that the redemption proceeds payable to shareholders who exercise such redemption rights represents the fair value of those shares.

Table of Contents

SPAC Shareholders have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination under the Cayman Companies Act. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to give notice to SPAC prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting that they wish to dissent to the Business Combination and to receive payment of fair market value for his, her or its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if they follow the procedures set out in the Cayman Companies Act.

In essence, that procedure is as follows: (i) the shareholder must give his written objection to the merger or consolidation to the constituent company before the vote on the merger or consolidation, including a statement that the shareholder proposes to demand payment for his shares if the merger or consolidation is authorized by the vote; (ii) within 20 days following the date on which the merger or consolidation is approved by the shareholders, the constituent company must give written notice to each shareholder who made a written objection; (iii) a shareholder must within 20 days following receipt of such notice from the constituent company, give the constituent company a written notice of his intention to dissent, including, among other details, a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares; (iv) within seven days following the date of the expiration of the period set out in (ii) above or seven days following the date on which the plan of merger or consolidation is filed, whichever is later, the constituent company, the surviving company or the consolidated company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his, her or its shares at a price that the company determines is the fair value and if the company and the shareholder agree the price within 30 days following the date on which the offer was made, the company must pay the shareholder such amount; and (v) if the company and the shareholder fail to agree on a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30 day period expires, the company (and any dissenting shareholder) must file a petition with the Cayman Islands courts to determine the fair value and such petition must be accompanied by a list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the fair value of their shares have not been reached by the company. At the hearing of that petition, the court has the power to determine the fair value of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the company upon the amount determined to be the fair value. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the company may participate fully in all proceedings until the determination of fair value is reached.

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares who elect to exercise appraisal rights will lose their right to exercise their redemption rights as described herein.

Proxy Solicitation Costs

SPAC is soliciting proxies on behalf of SPAC Board. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone, virtually or by electronic means or in person. SPAC will bear the cost of the solicitation.

SPAC has hired Morrow Sodali to assist in the proxy solicitation process and will pay to Morrow Sodali a fee of $20,000, plus disbursements. SPAC will also reimburse Morrow Sodali for reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses. SPAC will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions and will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

In addition to these mailed proxy materials, SPAC’s directors and executive officers may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. These parties will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

Other Matters

The SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting has been called to consider only the approval of the SPAC Shareholder Proposals and the Adjournment Proposal if presented. If any other matters should properly come before the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, it is intended that the shares represented by proxies will be voted with respect to such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting the proxies.

SPAC SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL NO. 1 — THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL

Overview

SPAC is asking its shareholders to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination described in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, including (i) adopting the Business Combination Agreement and (ii) approving the Transactions. SPAC Shareholders should carefully read this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Business Combination Agreement and Transactions. A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached as Annex A to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. Please see the section entitled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents” for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Business Combination Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements. You are urged to carefully read the Business Combination Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

SPAC may consummate the Business Combination only if SPAC receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting.

Business Combination Agreement

On July 21, 2023, SPAC entered into the Business Combination Agreement with CayCo, TCO and Merger Sub, which provides for the Business Combination and other transactions in connection therewith. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination and other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo, with the shareholders of SPAC becoming shareholders of CayCo, and SPAC will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.”.

Pursuant to SPAC MAA, holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may redeem SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in conjunction with a shareholder vote on the Transactions, if certain conditions and procedure requirements are satisfied. See the subsection entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for a detailed description of the redemption procedure.

Transaction Structure

The Business Combination Agreement provides that at the Closing, in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SPAC will be the surviving company and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo.

Pro Forma Capitalization

The pro forma equity valuation of CayCo upon consummation of the Transactions is estimated to be approximately $380,000,000. It is estimated that, upon consummation of the Transactions, assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage is 100% at the consummation of the TCO Restructuring and none of the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares demand redemption pursuant to SPAC MAA (and assuming none of the issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants was exercised), the pre-Closing shareholders of TCO will own approximately 77.1% of CayCo’s total issued and outstanding share capital and the shareholders of SPAC (including SPAC’s shareholders holding SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares) will own approximately 22.0% of CayCo’s total issued and outstanding share capital. For more details, see the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information.”

The Merger Consideration of the Business Combination

See the subsection entitled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination.”

Background of the Business Combination

The terms of the Business Combination Agreement and related ancillary documents are the result of extensive negotiations between Chenghe, TCO and their respective representatives. The following is a brief description of Chenghe’s formation, the background of Chenghe’s previous attempts at a business combination, its negotiations with and evaluation of TCO, the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination and the related transactions.

101

Table of Contents

The following is not intended to be a list of all opportunities initially evaluated or explored or discussions held by Chenghe, but rather to summarize the key meetings and events that led to the signing of the Business Combination Agreement with TCO. It includes all information that Chenghe and TCO consider material regarding the negotiation of the Business Combination. All dates and times referred to in the following chronology are Hong Kong time unless otherwise indicated.

Prior to the consummation of the SPAC IPO, Chenghe had not selected any business combination target and it had not, nor had anyone acting on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussion, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target.

After the consummation of the SPAC IPO, Chenghe’s officers and directors commenced an active search for prospective businesses and assets to acquire. During this search process, Chenghe reviewed and entered into discussions with a number of potential counterparties to a business combination transaction.

Description of discovery and negotiation process with potential targets

After the closing of the SPAC IPO on May 2, 2022, Chenghe began the process of searching for a target. Chenghe sought to leverage its management team and directors’ professional and personal relationships to source potential targets, including (i) Dr. Shibin Wang (the chief executive officer and director of the Chenghe Board, who has over 15 years’ experience in sales and trading of structured financial products, cross-border financing and other capital market activities), (ii) Mr. Richard Li (the chairman of the Chenghe Board, who has more than two decades of experience in investments, capital markets, corporate finance and risk management), and (iii) the extensive investment experience and connection with healthcare industry of Chenghe’s other directors.

In performing their roles at Chenghe and for other positions they hold, Chenghe’s management team attended a variety of industry conferences and performed industry research, including, among others, technology, fintech, financial services and healthcare industry sectors. The foregoing efforts led to the identification of a multitude of potential targets. Representatives of Chenghe contacted and communicated with these third parties for initial informational purposes. During this search process, Chenghe identified and conducted preliminary evaluations of 18 potential targets.

Chenghe’s initial evaluations consisted of a review of each potential target’s business, including but not limited to business due diligence, commercial due diligence, financial due diligence and legal due diligence, and such potential targets are from a variety of technology, fintech, financial services and healthcare industry sectors, with the majority operating in the technology and healthcare subsectors.

Chenghe entered into non-disclosure agreements (“NDAs”) with 12 potential targets that evidenced some or all of the following characteristics: the creation of a novel technology or technologies, the development of a robust go-to-market strategy, the access to sizeable addressable market, the establishment of thorough and long-lasting intellectual property protections, and the implementation of necessary operational requirements.

Of the 12 companies with which Chenghe entered into an NDA, three companies in particular met and exceeded the criteria that Chenghe sought in seeking to identify a potential business combination target. These companies’ product line-up, research capabilities, targeted addressable market and progress in product development, in Chenghe’s view, were sufficient to support their continuous expansion in the Asian and global markets. One of these companies is TCO, and additional descriptions of Chenghe’s discussions with the other two companies are set forth below, followed by a detailed description of Chenghe’s discussions with TCO.

Company A is a financial services company headquartered in the British Virgin Islands. On May 11, 2022, Chenghe entered into a customary NDA with Company A.

From July to October 2022, Chenghe conducted in-depth due diligence on Company A and negotiated the terms of the letter of intent.

On October 8, 2022, representatives of Company A informed representatives of Chenghe that it had planned to move forward with a different capital raising transaction in lieu of the potential business combination transaction with Chenghe.

Company B is a solar energy company headquartered in the British Virgin Islands. On November 18, 2022, Chenghe entered into a customary NDA with Company B and on December 12, 2022, the parties entered into a letter of intent.

From November 2022 to January 2023, Chenghe conducted due diligence on Company B. On January 22, 2023, Chenghe informed Company B that it did not plan to move forward with Company B.

From February to May 2023, Chenghe explored a business combination transaction with two other targets but did not enter into an LOI.

TCO is an optical components company headquartered in Taiwan. On May 15, 2023, representatives of Chenghe participated in a teleconference with TCO’s management team discussing a potential business combination transaction. Following this meeting, Chenghe and TCO executed an NDA on May 17, 2023.

From May to July of 2023, representatives of Chenghe received access to TCO’s virtual data room and a series of emails, calls and materials were exchanged between Chenghe and TCO. These exchanges included discussions of strategic, commercial and capital-raising plans and the prospects for a business combination between TCO and Chenghe.

From May 18, 2023 to May 23, 2023, representatives of Chenghe, White & Case, TCO and Landi Law Firm, the legal advisor to TCO, discussed and negotiated a draft letter of intent, including key issues, such as exclusivity, Chenghe’s right to nominate a board member to the combined company, allocation of expenses, and incentive mechanisms to increase deal certainty. On May 23, 2023, Chenghe and TCO entered into a letter of intent (the “TCO LOI”).

The TCO LOI provided for a one-month period of mutual exclusivity. The TCO LOI also provided for, among other things, (i) a pre-money enterprise valuation of TCO at US$400 million to US$500 million;(ii) no minimum cash requirement as a condition to closing; and (iii) that if the transaction is consummated, the transaction expenses shall be paid from the capital of the combined company and release of funds from Chenghe’s trust account.

On May 25, 2023, representatives of Chenghe, TCO, White & Case and Landi Law Firm and other parties reviewed the status of various work streams and developed a work plan to move forward with the potential business combination with TCO. Representatives of TCO also gave an update of its business and financial performance in the first half of 2023.

On May 25, 2023, Chenghe engaged Lee and Li, Attorneys-at-Law (“Lee and Li”), as its Taiwan counsel, and Maples and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP (“Maples”), as its Cayman Islands counsel.

From May 25, 2023 to the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, representatives of Chenghe, White & Case, Lee and Li and Maples continued legal due diligence on TCO, including, but not limited to, corporate structure, historical financing activities, data and privacy, intellectual property, material contracts, employee matters, antitrust and compliance. During this process, White & Case and Lee and Li circulated four rounds of supplemental legal due diligence request list to TCO and Landi Law Firm, and reviewed all responses relating thereto and highlighted key legal issues with Chenghe’s management.

From May 31, 2023 to July 18, 2023, representatives of Chenghe, TCO, White & Case and Landi Law Firm, together with Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu (“Deloitte”), Chenghe’s tax advisor engaged by Chenghe on June 5,2023, discussed the preliminary merger structure via various teleconferences and reviewed the structure proposal from a US, Taiwan, and Cayman tax perspective.

On July 10, 2023, representatives of White & Case shared an initial draft of the Business Combination Agreement with representatives of TCO and Landi Law Firm, which reflected, among other items, (i) a pre-money equity valuation of TCO on a fully diluted basis; (ii) that CayCo and TCO will consummate the TCO Restructuring before the Closing, including among others, TCO shall (A) deliver the Phase I Restructuring Documents, (B) obtain and deliver the Company Shareholder Approval, (C) sign the Phase II Restructuring Documents with all of the remaining TCO Shareholders, and (D) procure that the Company Acquisition Percentage shall be at least 90.1%; (iii) that TCO and CayCo shall obtain the Phase I IC Approval and the Phase II IC Approval within the prescribed time; (iv) TCO shall bear all filing fees in connection with the registration statement or the proxy statement, all costs and fees in connection with the TCO Restructuring, and 50% of all fees and costs in relation to the SPAC Extension; and (v) that TCO shall pay and reimburse all SPAC Transaction Expenses if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated by Chenghe.

Subsequently and until the execution of the Business Combination Agreement and related ancillary documents, representatives of White & Case and representatives of Landi Law Firm exchanged multiple drafts of the Business Combination Agreement and related ancillary documents. They also (i) held a number of teleconference discussions regarding the transaction documents, and (ii) had regular contact with their respective clients during this period to keep them apprised of the status of the transaction documents and solicit their feedback in connection with such documents.

On July 14, 2023, representatives of White & Case shared with representatives of TCO and Landi Law Firm initial drafts of certain ancillary documents to the Business Combination Agreement, namely (i) the Sponsor Support Agreement, (ii) the Company Support Agreement, (iii) the Investor Rights Agreement, (iv) the Lock-Up Agreement, (v) form of the Plan of Merger, and (vi) form of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of CayCo.

On July 14, 2023, representatives of Landi Law Firm shared with representatives of White & Case a revised draft of the Business Combination Agreement, which, among others, reflected (i) the size cap of 65% of the TCO Shareholders signing the Phase I Restructuring Documents indicating 65% may not be obtained; (ii) qualification in the covenants relating to the Taiwan IC Approval and signing of the Phase II Restructuring Documents with the remaining TCO Shareholders; (iii) qualification in the covenant requiring TCO to acquire the Company Shares owned by the Remaining Company Shareholders with cash consideration, (iv) qualification in the closing condition of the Company Acquisition Percentage being at least 90.1%; (v) addition of a cure period of 30 days for certain termination triggers in the Business Combination Agreement; and (vi) removal of the termination fee trigger by SPAC at the Agreement End Date.

SPAC Board’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination and Recommendations

Before reaching its decision, the SPAC Board reviewed the results of management’s due diligence, which included:

• research on industry trends, competitive landscape and other industry factors;

• benchmarking versus key competitors on historical financial and operational performance;

• extensive meetings and calls with TCO management team and representatives regarding operations, major suppliers and financial prospectus, among other customary due diligence matters;

• review of TCO’s material business contracts and certain other legal and commercial diligence;

• review of TCO’s business model and historical financial statements, among other financial information; and

• discussions with external advisors and review reports related to legal diligence prepared by external advisors.

In light of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the SPAC Board did not consider it practicable to, and did not attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that the SPAC Board considered in reaching its determination and supporting its decision. The SPAC Board viewed its decision as being based on all of the information available and the factors presented to and considered by the SPAC Board. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. The SPAC Board realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the following reasons. This explanation of the SPAC Board’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

The SPAC Board reviewed the results of due diligence conducted by SPAC’s management and by SPAC’s legal, financial, commercial, and technical advisors, and considered a number of factors pertaining to the Business Combination as generally supporting its decision to enter into the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

The SPAC Board concluded that TCO meets the criteria that SPAC was seeking to identify in an appropriate target and represents an attractive business combination partner for SPAC. In particular, SPAC Board considered the following positive factors, among others:

• TCO’s Past Performance and Growth Potential. The global autonomous vehicle industry has experienced significant growth and offers strong long-term growth prospects, resulting in an attractive risk-return profile. TCO has a visionary, experienced and professional management team that has demonstrated a track record of driving growth, strategic decision making and long-term value creation, and it has differentiated products applicable in the fields of automotive components. TCO has, is in the progress of, formed working relationship with several Tier-1 suppliers in the automotive industry, including, but not limited to, ZF Group, Foxconn and Pegatron. TCO has successfully developed LiDAR and ADB prototypes that have good prospects to be validated and adopted by Tier-1 suppliers.

• Business Opportunities. SPAC Board considered TCO’s opportunities for future growth, particularly in the automotive businesses, including opportunities for international expansion, and it is expected that TCO will be able to continue technology-driven innovations, including to be able to custom design and develop products by leveraging next generation technology such as LiDAR system for topography.

Table of Contents

• Strong Existing Management Team. SPAC Board considered TCO’s existing management team of industry veterans, all of whom have been instrumental in TCO’s record business results that will continue on TCO post-Closing and provide valuable continued insight.

• Continued Support by Existing Shareholders. SPAC Board considered that major TCO Shareholders had agreed to have their ownership subjected to lock-up agreements and existing TCO shareholders will continue to own 60.50% of CayCo post-Closing (assuming no redemptions and the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants). These are strong signs of TCO’s existing shareholders’ confidence in CayCo and the benefits to be realized as a result of the Business Combination.

• Lock-up. Major shareholders of TCO have agreed to be subject to lock-up restrictions for at least six (6) months following the consummation of the Business Combination in respect of their equity interests in CayCo (subject to certain customary exceptions).

• Due Diligence. SPAC conducted a due diligence review of TCO and its business, including review of relevant documentation and discussions with TCO management and SPAC’s financial and legal advisors. Through SPAC’s detailed due diligence investigation, SPAC Board and management had knowledge of, and were familiar with, TCO’s business, operation and financial condition, intellectual property, business model and material business relationships.

• Other Alternatives. Having reviewed other potential business combination opportunities available to SPAC, SPAC Board believes that the Business Combination presents the most attractive business combination opportunity available to SPAC based on the process it utilized to evaluate such other potential business combination opportunities and the belief that such process has not yielded more attractive alternatives, taking into account the potential risks, rewards and uncertainties associated with potential alternatives.

• Negotiated Transaction. The financial and other terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including each party’s representations, warranties and covenants, the conditions to each party’s obligations and the termination provisions, were the product of arm’s-length negotiations between SPAC and TCO, and SPAC Board believes that such terms are reasonable and fair to SPAC Shareholders.

• Independent Directors’ Role. SPAC Board is comprised of a majority of independent directors who are not affiliated with the Sponsor or its affiliates. The independent directors evaluated and approved, as members of SPAC Board, the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination.

In the course of its deliberation, SPAC also considered a variety of risks and uncertainties relevant to the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, the following:

• Business and Industry Risks. TCO operates in a dynamic industry and many of the elements of TCO’s business are innovative and evolving. It may fail in the competition with other optical retail company in the market and loss customers. TCO’s LiDAR and ADB products are still in prototype stage. There are substantial uncertainties relating to the commercialization of its LiDAR and ADB products, and TCO’s capabilities to manage the complex manufacturing process of LiDAR and ADB products, if they reach commercialization stage.

• Financial Risk. The projected financial information referenced or considered in connection with the Business Combination was prepared and provided by TCO, reflecting currently available estimates and assumptions, presents the expected implementation of TCO’s business plan and the expected future financial performance. Such projected financial information is subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the unaudited projected financial information, including, among others, risks and uncertainties relating to TCO’s business, industry performance, the regulatory environment, and general business and economic conditions. Such information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information.

Table of Contents

• Benefits Not Achieved. The risk that the potential benefits of the Business Combination may not be fully achieved, or may not be achieved within the expected timeframe.

• Termination Date. The risk that the Business Combination may not be consummated by the earlier of SPAC Termination Date or May 21, 2024, upon the occurrence of which the Business Combination Agreement may be terminated; provided that the right to terminate is not available to a party where the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date is caused by a failure of such party to perform and comply in all material respects with its covenants and agreements that are required to be performed or complied with at or prior to the Closing.

• Liquidation of SPAC. The risks and costs to SPAC if the Business Combination is not completed, including the risk of diverting management focus and resources from other business combination opportunities, which could result in SPAC being unable to effect a business combination by the SPAC Termination Date, and force it to liquidate and the SPAC Warrants to expire worthless.

• No Survival of Remedies for Breach of Representations, Warranties or Covenants of TCO. The risk that SPAC will not have any surviving remedies against TCO after the Closing to recover for losses as a result of any inaccuracies or breaches of representations, warranties or covenants of TCO set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. As a result, following the Closing, SPAC Shareholders will not have the ability to recover for the amount of any damages resulting from a breach of TCO representations, warranties or covenants set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. SPAC Board determined that this structure was appropriate and customary in light of the fact that several similar transactions include similar terms.

• Shareholder Vote. The risk that SPAC Shareholders may fail to provide the respective votes necessary to complete the Business Combination.

• Redemptions. The risk that holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash in connection with the Business Combination, thereby reducing the amount of cash available to SPAC and potentially resulting in an inability to consummate the Business Combination if the available cash in the Trust Account is less than $5,000,001.

• Closing Conditions. The fact that completion of the Business Combination is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain closing conditions that are not within SPAC’s control.

• Transaction Litigation. The possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could indefinitely enjoin consummation of the Business Combination.

• Listing Risks. The challenges associated with preparing CayCo, a privately held entity, for the applicable disclosure, controls and listing requirements to which it will be subject as a publicly traded company on the Stock Exchange.

• No Fairness Opinion. SPAC Board did not obtain a fairness opinion from a bank stating that the consideration to be paid in the Business Combination was fair to SPAC from a financial point of view.

• Post-Business Combination Corporate Governance. The amount of equity to be held by TCO’s existing shareholders, the fact that existing SPAC Shareholders will hold a minority position in CayCo following consummation of the Business Combination will have the effect of concentrating voting power with the existing TCO shareholders, which will limit an investor’s ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.

• Fees and Expenses. The fees and expenses associated with completing the Business Combination.

• Other Risks. Various other risks associated with the Business Combination, the business of TCO and the business of SPAC described under the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

In addition to considering the factors described above, SPAC Board also considered:

• Interests of Certain Persons. The Sponsor, officers and directors may have interests in the Business Combination that are in addition to, and that are different from, the interests of the other SPAC Shareholders (see below subsection entitled “Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination”). SPAC’s

109

Table of Contents

independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during the negotiation of the Business Combination and in evaluating and approving, as members of SPAC Board, the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Business Combination.

SPAC Board concluded that the potential benefits that it expected SPAC and its shareholders to achieve as a result of the Business Combination outweighed the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination. Accordingly, SPAC Board determined that the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, were advisable, fair to, and in the best interests of, SPAC and its shareholders.

Summary of Financial and Valuation Analyses of TCO

The following highlights the material analyses prepared by Chenghe’s management, with the assistance of its financial advisor, and reviewed by Chenghe’s Board in connection with the valuation of TCO. Where relevant, the numbers and ratios set out in this section reflects the information contained in TCO’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022 and unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The summary sets forth below does not purport to be a complete description of the financial and valuation analyses performed or factors considered by Chenghe nor does the order of the financial and valuation analyses described represent the relative importance or weight given to those financial and valuation analyses by Chenghe’s Board. Chenghe may have deemed various assumptions more or less probable than other assumptions, so the valuations implied by the analysis highlighted below should not be taken to be Chenghe’s view of the actual value of TCO. Considering the data specified below without considering all financial and valuation analyses or factors or the full narrative description of such analyses of factors, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying such analyses or factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying Chenghe’s financial and valuation analyses and the recommendation of Chenghe’s Board.

While presented with numerical specificity, the financial and valuation analyses prepared by Chenghe’s management are forward-looking and reflect numerous estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, future industry performance under various industry scenarios as well as assumptions for competition, general business, economic, market and financial condition and matters specific to the business of TCO, all of which are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Chenghe or TCO.

None of TCO, Chenghe, or any other person assumes responsibility if future results are materially different from those discussed. Any estimates contained in these analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly more or less favorable than as set forth below. In addition, analyses relating to the value of TCO do not purport to be appraisals or reflect the prices at which TCO shares may actually be valued upon closing of the Business Combination. Accordingly, the assumptions and estimates used in, and the results derived from, the financial and valuation analyses are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. The following information, to the extent that is based on market data, is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions.

Valuation Analysis

In determining TCO’s valuation, Chenghe’s management and Board considered the valuation analysis conducted by Chenghe’s management with the assistance of its financial advisor, CCM, which was based on Chenghe’s management’s analysis of the following documents and information provided by TCO:

1) the operational, financial and valuation data of comparable companies, trading levels of comparable companies, publicly disclosed information regarding comparable transactions and the materials, including financial information; and

2) an appraisal report prepared a third-party independent valuation firm dated April 18, 2023, which valued TCO’s fully diluted equity as of March 31, 2023 in the range of US$474 million to US$517 million, subject to the assumptions and methodologies adopted in such report.

As part of this assessment, Chenghe’s management conducted, with the assistance of CCM and its legal counsel, a comprehensive due diligence examination of TCO and discussed the financial, technical, operational and legal outlook of TCO with TCO’s management. It also discussed and reviewed the following valuation analysis with CCM via (A) a market multiple methodology and (B) selected comparable public companies analysis.

Table of Contents

A. Market Multiple Methodology

Chenghe’s management and CCM considered and utilized certain projected revenues of TCO prepared by TCO management for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2026.

TCO does not, as a matter of general practice, publicly disclose long-term forecasts or internal projections as to future revenues, earnings or other results due to, among other reasons, the uncertainty, unpredictability and subjectivity of the underlying assumptions and estimates. However, during the due diligence process and prior to approval by the Chenghe board of directors on July 21, 2023, and the execution of the Business Combination Agreement and related agreements, TCO provided Chenghe with recently prepared, internal financial projections for the year ended December 31, 2026. The financial projections presented in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement constitute the entirety of the financial forecasts presented to the Chenghe Board in approving the Business Combination. The decision to prepare projections of 2026 was based on TCO management’s assessment that such time period includes the expected inflection point of TCO’s revenue growth, underpinned by the expected wide adoption of ADB technology and LiDAR technology. TCO expects that its existing and upcoming products will benefit from the trend of increasing level of automation in the automotive industry, and its investment in research and development and manufacturing capabilities will yield in diverse product offerings and sales revenue commensurate with TCO’s vision.

The projected financial information was not prepared with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, but, in the view of Chenghe’s management and CCM, reflects currently available estimates and assumptions, presents the expected implementation of TCO’s business plan and the expected future financial performance provided by TCO, in each case at the time such information was provided to Chenghe’s management and CCM, which may be different from the information currently available at the time of filing this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. As such, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information.

The inclusion of the financial projections should not be deemed an admission or representation by Chenghe, or TCO or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, advisors, or other representatives with respect to such financial projections. The financial projections are not included to influence your views on the Business Combination and are summarized in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement solely to provide shareholders access to certain non-public information considered by the Chenghe Board in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination. The information from the financial projections should be evaluated, if at all, in conjunction with the historical financial statements and other information regarding TCO in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

None of Chenghe or any of its affiliates, advisors, officers, directors or other representatives can provide any assurance that actual results of TCO will not differ from the projected financial information, and none of them undertakes any obligation to update, or otherwise revise or reconcile, the projected financial information to reflect circumstances existing after the date the projected financial information was generated or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projected financial information, as applicable, are shown to be in error. Except as required by applicable securities laws, Chenghe does not intend to make publicly available any update or other revision to the projected financial information, even in the event that any or all assumptions are shown to be in error.

The projected financials were prepared by TCO’s management. Chenghe’s management was not involved in the development of any of the below TCO projections and assumptions. No independent auditors have audited, reviewed, examined, compiled nor applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the financial projections and, accordingly, neither TCO’s nor Chenghe’s independent auditors express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto or its achievability, and each assumes no responsibility for, and disclaims any association with, the financial projections.

TCO expects its projected 2026E revenues in the range of US$125 million to US$160 million, and based on a median EV/2024 Revenues ratio of 4.3X based on selected comparable companies analysis, the implied TCO EV is in the range of US$537 million to US$688 million in 2026.

Table of Contents

The projected financial information was prepared using several assumptions, including the following assumptions that TCO management believed to be material:

• the wider adoption of LiDAR solutions in the automotive industry;

• projected revenue will be achieved based on adoption of ADB technologies in major markets, such as the United States, European Union and the PRC, the continued development of assisted driving technologies and autonomous vehicle platform utilizing LiDAR technologies by the auto industry, commercialization timing for new products under development, growth in the number of units sold and product mix, and the average selling price per system and resulting sales of systems;

• TCO will be able to meet technological and operation milestones in the commercialization of its products, including validation of its prototypes by its Tier-1 supplier partners, acceptance of its technical solutions by car manufacturers, stable relationship with its key suppliers, successful trial production and production ramp-up;

• TCO will continue to invest in the development of LiDAR and ADB products and solutions, including the LiDAR and IC chipsets to deliver cost-effective technical solutions and products that meets its partners’ and car manufacturers’ requirement;

• TCO will be able to reach agreement with its Tier 1 supplier partners in relation to cost sharing and joint development of TCO’s LiDAR and ADB solutions;

• The commercial projects of TCO’s Tier-1 supplier partners to which TCO will contribute will commercialize without undue delay or suffering unforeseen setbacks, and TCO will enter into contracts to supply these Tier-1 supplier partners with LiDAR and ADB solutions in near term;

• TCO will successfully establish its brand name and industry recognition as a LiDAR and ADB solution providers and a designer of IC chipsets for these products, despite its recent entry into these markets;

• TCO will be able to diversify its revenue source with other commercial applications of LiDAR, such as in rail transportation systems;

• TCO will be able to manage its manufacturing costs during its production ramp-up, reducing costs associated with manufacturing overhead, warranty and logistics; and

• other key assumptions impacting profitability projections including headcount, third party contractors, engineering consulting and prototyping spend, but excluding costs associated with public company operations and compliance.

Historically, TCO’s products were primarily laser lights modules and optical components. As TCO had not generated substantial revenue in relation to its LiDAR and ADB products when the projected financial information was rendered or as of the date hereof, TCO was unable to compare the projected financial information with its historical operating results. TCO’s management believes that the projected revenue is reasonable, because it takes into account (i) the early commercialization stage of TCO’s LiDAR and ADB products; (ii) existing partnerships and collaborations that TCO has achieved and would have achieved under its existing relationships, assuming the current momentum of development, in the next three years; (iii) the per-solution price of TCO’s LiDAR and ADB products, as compared to the price of TCO’s current products; and (iv) increased adoption and sales of L2+ autonomous vehicles.

Chenghe’s management and CCM considered and applied risk-adjusted discount rates of 20% over a 2-year period to the projected range of 2026E revenue of TCO to arrive at an implied TCO of EV in the range of US$373 million to US$478 million in 2024. The risk-adjusted discount rate is determined after considering TCO’s funding costs, the expected interest rate in the discount period, the risks associated with automotive industry and LiDAR industry, and the inherent risks of investing in an emerging company. The discount period is determined after considering the expected closing time of the Business Combination, the expected time for TCO to fully deploy the funds that it expects to receive from this Business Combination and time for TCO to adjust its operation as a public company.

112

Table of Contents

Based on discussions with TCO management and commercial and financial due diligence, and after discussion and consultations with CCM, Chenghe’s management considered 2026E revenues as one of financial factors for calculating TCO’s EV under the market multiple methodology because 2026 is the calendar year that TCO expects its customers and the market start to widely adopt its expertise optics technology and solid-state lighting projectors.

Therefore, the implied post-money EV is estimated at US$415 million and pre-money equity value is estimated at US$380 million as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement.

For the purpose of the valuation assessment, Chenghe’s management with the assistance of CCM, also reviewed certain financial information of TCO and took into account certain financial information of Comparable Public Companies in (i) optical and electrical components and (ii) LIDAR solutions, because TCO generates and expects to continue to generate revenues in these two areas.

Chenghe’s management team identified various criteria as significant in determining whether a company was considered to be comparable to TCO but mainly focused on product relevancy because it pertains to (i) optical and electrical components and (ii) LIDAR solutions, and customer end market overlap. Set forth below are the comparable companies selected by Chenghe’s management as part of the valuation analyses of TCO.

1) Optical and Electrical Components

• Xingyu Co., LTD — a Chinese company that develops, produces, and sells automotive lighting

• Lumentum Holdings Inc. — an American company that develops and manufactures innovative optical and photonic products enabling optical networking and laser applications

• Appotronics Corporation Ltd. — a Chinese company that develops and produces laser display equipment and technologies

2) LIDAR Solutions

• Mobileye Global Inc. — an Israeli company that develops and sells autonomous driving technologies and advanced driver-assistance systems including cameras, computer chips and software

• Luminar Technologies Inc. — an American company that develops vision-based LIDAR and machine perception technologies, primarily for self-driving cars

• MicroVision Inc. — an American company that manufactures and sells MEMS-based solid-state automotive LIDAR and advanced driver-assistance systems

• Innoviz Technologies Ltd. — an Israeli company that manufactures and sells of high-performance, solid-state LiDAR sensors and perception software

None of the above comparable companies has characteristics identical to TCO. Some of the selected companies have different product portfolios and the majority of the selected comparable companies operate in different countries/regions with TCO. An analysis of selected comparable companies is not purely quantitative, rather, it involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics of the selected comparable companies and other factors that could affect the public trading values of the companies reviewed.

In conducting comparable companies valuation analysis, Chenghe’s management and Board compared TCO against the selected comparable companies in the ratio of EV/2024E Revenues. The total EV of TCO is calculated based on the pre-money equity value of $380 million on a fully diluted basis.

Chenghe’s management believed that it was inappropriate to, and therefore did not, rely solely on the quantitative results of the selected comparable company valuation analysis. Accordingly, Chenghe’s management also made qualitative judgments, based on its experience and the professional judgment of its management team, concerning differences between the operations, business and/or financial characteristics of TCO and the selected comparable companies to provide a context in which to consider the results of the quantitative analysis.

Table of Contents

Valuation Benchmarking

The median ratios of EV/2024E Revenues of the selected comparable companies in (i) optical and electrical components and (ii) LIDAR solutions are 2.8X and 8.9X, respectively. Chenghe’s management and Board determined that it is appropriate to use 4.3X as a reasonable multiple applied to the company’s 2026E revenue in calculating the TCO EV.

C. Conclusion and recommendation of Chenghe’s Board

Have considered the foregoing, Chenghe’s management, with the assistance of CCM, concluded that TCO was an attractive business combination target, as it compared favorably against the selected comparable companies in terms of the historical revenue growth rate, particularly in the most recent fiscal year of 2022, with a ratio of EV/2024E Revenues comparable to that of the selected comparable companies in (i) optical and electrical components and (ii) LIDAR solutions.

Chenghe’s Board reviewed and discussed the valuation analysis of TCO prepared by the management team of Chenghe with the assistance of CCM, and believes that TCO has the potential to implement its business development plans and scale up its operations accordingly. Chenghe’s Board believes that after its review of other business combination opportunities reasonably available to Chenghe and its evaluation of the consequence of liquidation of Chenghe without consummating an initial business combination, the Business Combination with TCO represents the best potential business combination for Chenghe and its shareholders, based upon the process utilized to evaluate and assess other potential acquisition targets and the liquidation distribution of trust account to the shareholders, and Chenghe’s Board believes that such process has not presented a better alternative. On the basis of the foregoing, Chenghe’s Board believes that, in its reasonable business judgement, such valuation analysis supported the pre-money fully diluted equity valuation of TCO at US$380 million and it’s in the best interest of Chenghe’s shareholders to approve and implement the Business Combination with TCO.

The results of the above-referenced analyses supported Chenghe’s management’s determination that it was fair and in the best interests of Chenghe and its shareholders, and that it was advisable, to enter into the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which Chenghe is, or will be, a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination.

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

• the right of the SPAC Initial Shareholders to hold the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants following the Business Combination, subject to certain lock-up periods;

Table of Contents

another blank check company prior to SPAC completing its initial business combination. SPAC’s officers and directors may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to SPAC, and the other entities to which they owe certain fiduciary or contractual duties. Accordingly, they may have had conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in SPAC’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to SPAC, subject to application fiduciary duties under Cayman Companies Act. SPAC MAA provide that SPAC renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any officer or director of SPAC. This waiver allows SPAC’s officers and directors to allocate opportunities based on a combination of the objectives and fundraising needs of the target, as well as the investment objectives of the entity. SPAC does not believe that the waiver of the corporate opportunities doctrine otherwise had a material impact on its search for an acquisition target.

• the fact that SPAC has entered into a registration rights agreement with the SPAC Initial Shareholders, which provides for customary registration rights to them and their permitted transferees.

Satisfaction of 80% Test

The rules of Nasdaq and SPAC MAA requires that SPAC must consummate an initial business combination with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement in connection with its initial business combination. Based on the qualitative and quantitative information used to approve the Business Combination described herein, SPAC Board determined that the foregoing 80% net asset requirement was met. SPAC Board believes that the financial skills and background of its members qualify it to conclude that the acquisition met the 80% net asset requirement.

Regulatory Matters

The Business Combination is not subject to any federal or state regulatory requirement or approval, except for (i) the Taiwan IC Approval and (ii) the filings with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act necessary to effectuate the Business Combination.

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to SPAC MAA, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may demand that SPAC redeem its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated; provided that SPAC may not consummate the Business Combination if it has less than $5,000,001 of net tangible assets either immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination (for the avoidance of doubt, the consummation of the Business Combination is still subject to the satisfaction of the closing conditions under the Business Combination Agreement unless waived, if applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, together with any affiliate of his or her or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than 20% of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, all SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in excess of 20% held by a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group,” will not be redeemed and converted into cash. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares who wish to exercise their redemption rights must demand that SPAC redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash and tender their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares to SPAC Transfer Agent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may tender their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares by either delivering their share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to the SPAC Transfer Agent or by delivering their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares electronically to the SPAC Transfer Agent using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System. Any holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares satisfying the requirements for exercising redemption rights will be entitled to a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (which, for illustrative purposes, was $10.98 per share, as of the Record Date), less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses. Such amount will be paid promptly

116

upon consummation of the Business Combination. There are currently no owed but unpaid income taxes on the funds in the Trust Account. If a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercises his, her or its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its shares for cash and will not become a shareholder of CayCo post-Closing. Any request for redemption, once made by a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, may be withdrawn at any time up to the deadline for submitting redemption requests, which is January 31, 2024 (two (2) Business Days prior to the date of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting), and thereafter, with SPAC’s consent, until the Closing. If you deliver your share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to SPAC Transfer Agent and later decide prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting not to elect redemption, you may request that SPAC Transfer Agent return the shares (physically or electronically). See the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to convert your shares into cash.

Resale of CayCo Ordinary Shares

The CayCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to shareholders of SPAC in connection with the Business Combination will be freely transferable under the Securities Act except for shares issued to any shareholder who may be deemed for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act an “affiliate” of SPAC immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time or an “affiliate” of CayCo following the Business Combination. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, CayCo or SPAC (as appropriate) and may include the executive officers, directors and significant shareholders of CayCo or SPAC (as appropriate).

Stock Exchange Listing of CayCo Ordinary Shares

CayCo will use reasonable best efforts to cause, prior to the Merger Effective Time, the CayCo Ordinary Shares to be approved for listing on the Stock Exchange under the proposed symbol “SELX,” subject to official notice of issuance. Approval of the listing on the Stock Exchange of the CayCo Ordinary Shares (subject to official notice of issuance) is a condition to each party’s obligation to complete the Business Combination.

Delisting and Deregistration of SPAC Securities

If the Business Combination is completed and no other business combination is completed by the SPAC Termination Date, the SPAC Units and the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be delisted from Nasdaq and will be deregistered under the Exchange Act.

CayCo as a Foreign Private Issuer under the Exchange Act Post-Closing

CayCo expects to remain a “foreign private issuer” (under SEC rules). Consequently, upon consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo will be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act applicable to foreign private issuers. CayCo will be required to file its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ending December 31, 2023 with the SEC by April 30, 2024. In addition, CayCo will furnish reports on Form 6-K to the SEC regarding certain information required to be publicly disclosed by CayCo in the Cayman Islands or that is distributed or required to be distributed by CayCo to its shareholders.

Based on its foreign private issuer status, CayCo will not be required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as a U.S. company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. CayCo will also not be required to comply with Regulation FD, which addresses certain restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information.

In addition, among other matters, CayCo’s officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of the CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Despite its initial exemption due to its foreign private issuer status, CayCo nevertheless expects to issue interim quarterly financial information publicly and to furnish it to the SEC on Form 6-K.

CayCo as an Emerging Growth Company under U.S. Federal Securities Laws Post-Closing and Related Implications

The SPAC is, and following the Business Combination, CayCo will be, an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, CayCo will be eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in their periodic reports and Registration Statement/Proxy Statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find the CayCo’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the CayCo’s securities and the prices of CayCo’s securities may be more volatile.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Business Combination Proposal will require an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law and pursuant to SPAC MAA, being the affirmative vote of shareholders holding a majority of the ordinary shares which are voted on such resolution in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting at which a quorum is present.

An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, will not count as a vote cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Broker non-votes do not count as votes cast.

THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT AND ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS

The Business Combination Agreement

This section describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement, but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Business Combination Agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. SPAC Shareholders and other interested parties are urged to read the Business Combination Agreement in its entirety because it is the primary legal document that governs the Merger.

The Business Combination Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Business Combination Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement are also modified in part by the underlying disclosure letters (the “disclosure letters”), which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. We do not believe that the disclosure letters contain information that is material to an investment decision. Additionally, the representations and warranties of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement may or may not have been accurate as of any specific date and do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. Accordingly, no person should rely on the representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement or the summaries thereof in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about SPAC, TCO, CayCo, Merger Sub or any other matter.

Structure of the Business Combination

On July 21, 2023, SPAC, TCO, CayCo and Merger Sub, entered into a Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Business Combination Agreement, (i) immediately after the TCO Restructuring Closing and at the Merger Effective Time, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SPAC will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo; and (ii) SPAC will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.”

The closing of the Business Combination will be conditional upon, among other things, the TCO Restructuring Closing.

TCO Restructuring

To maximize Cayco’s control over TCO’s business and operations after the Closing and enhance the efficiency of future fundraising, the parties intend to have each existing TCO Shareholder exchange the Company Shares held by it, him or her with CayCo Ordinary Shares, so that at the Closing, or as soon as practicable thereafter, CayCo will be the sole shareholder of TCO. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, CayCo shall have acquired at least 90.1% of all issued and outstanding Company Shares on or prior to the Closing. Such restructuring is expected to be effected in two phases.

From the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the Closing, TCO shall use its best efforts to sign the Phase II Restructuring Documents with all of the remaining TCO Shareholders within twenty (20) Business Days after TCO has received the Company Shareholder Approval. The terms of the Phase II Restructuring Documents are expected be substantially the same as those of the Phase I Restructuring Documents. The TCO Parties shall each use their respective best efforts to procure that sufficient TCO Shareholders will execute the Company Restructuring Documents such that the Company Acquisition Percentage shall be at least 90.1%.

The TCO Parties agree that the Company Restructuring Documents shall provide that at the TCO Restructuring Closing, CayCo shall issue and allot to each TCO Shareholder who has agreed to so subscribe in respect of each Company Share owned by such person, a number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that is no more than the Subscription Factor.

123

Table of Contents

The closing of the TCO Restructuring shall take place at least one (1) Business Day before the Closing Date or such other time and place as SPAC and TCO may mutually agree.

The “Subscription Factor” is a number resulting from dividing (x) the result of the quantity of the Base Equity Value divided by US$10.00, by (y) the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares as at the time of calculation. The “Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares” means, without duplication, the aggregate number of Company Shares that are (i) issued and outstanding or (ii) issuable upon, or subject to the consummation of any PIPE Investment, if any. The “Base Equity Value” means US$380,000,000. The “Company Acquisition Percentage” means a number, expressed as a percentage, calculated by dividing (x) the number of Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares owned by CayCo immediately after the TCO Restructuring Closing by (y) the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares at such time.

Merger

At the Closing, in accordance with the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SPAC will be the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo.

Effect of the Merger on the Share Capital of SPAC and Merger Sub

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time, the following will occur:

(a) each outstanding SPAC Unit, consisting of one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant, will be automatically separated and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant;

(b) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and each SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist;

(c) each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (A) issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion; and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) CayCo Ordinary Share; and

(d) each SPAC Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a CayCo Warrant, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the applicable SPAC Warrant.

Closing

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, the Closing will take place by conference call and by exchange of signature pages by email or other electronic transmission, at a time and date specified in writing by SPAC and TCO, which shall be no later than three (3) Business Days after the first date on which all conditions set forth in Article VIII of the Business Combination Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof) or such other time and place as SPAC and TCO may mutually agree in writing.

Representations and Warranties

The Business Combination Agreement contains representations and warranties of SPAC and the TCO Parties, certain of which are qualified by materiality and material adverse effect (as defined below) and may be further modified and limited by the disclosure letters. See “Material Adverse Effect” below. The representations and warranties of SPAC are also qualified by information included in SPAC’s public filings, filed or submitted to the SEC on or prior to the date of the Business Combination Agreement (subject to certain exceptions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement).

Material Adverse Effect

Under the Business Combination Agreement, certain representations and warranties of the TCO Parties are qualified in whole or in part by a material adverse effect standard for purposes of determining whether a breach of such representations and warranties has occurred.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, a material adverse effect with respect to the TCO Parties means any event, state of facts, development, circumstance, occurrence or effect that (i) has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations or condition of the Group or (ii) does or would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent or materially delay the ability of the TCO Parties to consummate the Merger.

However, in no event would any of the following, alone or in combination, be deemed to constitute, or be taken into account in determining whether there has been or will be, a “Company Material Adverse Effect”:

(a) any change in applicable laws or accounting rules (including GAAP) or any interpretation thereof following the date of the Business Combination Agreement;

(b) any change in interest rates or economic, political, business or financial market conditions generally;

(d) any acts of terrorism or war, the outbreak or escalation of hostilities;

(e) the announcement of the Business Combination Agreement and consummation of the Transactions, including any termination of, reduction in or similar adverse impact (but, in each case, only to the extent attributable to such announcement or consummation) on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with any landlords, customers, suppliers or employees of the Group;

(f) the taking of any action by TCO that is expressly required by the Business Combination Agreement; and

(g) any action taken by, or at the written request, of SPAC.

Any Event referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) above may be taken into account in determining if a Company Material Adverse Effect has occurred to the extent it has a disproportionate and adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Group, relative to similarly situated companies in the industry in which the Group conduct its operations.

Competition and Antitrust

At any time before or after the consummation of the Business Combination, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Antitrust Division”), non-U.S. competition authorities or others, including in Taiwan and/or Cayman Islands, could take action under antitrust laws with respect to the Business Combination, including seeking to enjoin consummation of the Business Combination, or to condition approval of the Business Combination on the divestiture of assets of SPAC, the Company or their respective subsidiaries or to impose restrictions on the operations of CayCo or its subsidiaries that would apply after the consummation of the Business Combination. Private parties may also bring objections or legal actions under antitrust laws under certain circumstances.

The Business Combination may be challenged on antitrust grounds and, if such a challenge is made, the challenge may be successful. Similarly, the antitrust approvals necessary to consummate the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement may not be obtained and the granting of these approvals may involve the imposition of conditions to such consummation. These conditions or changes could result in the conditions to each party’s obligations to consummate the Business Combination not being satisﬁed prior to the Business Combination end date (which is summarized in the subsection entitled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Termination” elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement) or any extensions thereof, which would give any party to the Business Combination Agreement the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement without consummating the Business Combination.

Please see the subsections entitled “Covenants of the SPAC” and “Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination” elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement for information concerning SPAC’s and the Company’s covenants and closing conditions related to antitrust ﬁlings and approvals.

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of each of the Ancillary Documents, which are attached as annexes to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement as noted below. SPAC Shareholders and other interested parties are urged to read such Ancillary Documents in their entirety.

Sponsor Support Agreement (Annex C)

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor, SPAC and TCO entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement, dated as of July 21, 2023, a copy of which is attached to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement as Annex C.

Pursuant to the Company Support Agreement, such TCO Shareholders and CayCo Shareholders agreed to, among other things, vote their Company Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable, in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the other documents contemplated thereby and the related transactions contemplated thereby, including the TCO Restructuring and the Merger, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Company Support Agreement. During the period commencing on the date of the Company Support Agreement and ending on the earlier of (a) the Merger Effective Time and (b) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 9.1 thereof, such TCO Shareholders and CayCo Shareholders agreed not to transfer any Company Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable.

Lock-Up Agreement (Annex E)

The Sponsor, certain Sponsor Key Holders and certain TCO Shareholders will enter into the Lock-Up Agreement with CayCo at the Closing, pursuant to which each of the Sponsor and such Sponsor Key Holder and TCO Shareholder will agree, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to transfer any CayCo Ordinary Shares beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the Closing Date, or (ii) subsequent to the Closing Date, the date on which (x) the closing trading price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds US$12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-trading day period at least one-hundred and fifty (150) days after the Closing Date; or (y) the consummation of a bona fide liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization, tender offer, change of control or other similar transaction which results in all of the CayCo Shareholders having the right to exchange their CayCo Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Closing Date.

The Investor rights Agreement amends and restates the registration and shareholder rights agreement that was entered into by SPAC, the Sponsor and the other parties thereto in connection with SPAC’s initial public offering. The Investor Rights Agreement will terminate on the earlier of (a) the tenth anniversary of the date of the Investor Rights Agreement or (b) the date as of which (i) all of the Registrable Securities (as defined therein) have been sold, pursuant to a registration statement (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)) or (ii) the holders of all Registrable Securities are permitted to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale; provided, further, that with respect to any Holder (as defined therein), such Holder will have no rights under the Investor Rights Agreement and all obligations of CayCo to such Holder under the Investor Rights Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest date (x) such Holder ceases to hold any Registrable Securities and (y) such Holder is permitted to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale.

APPRAISAL RIGHTS

The Cayman Companies Act prescribes when shareholder appraisal rights will be available and sets the limitations on such rights. Where such rights are available, shareholders are entitled to receive fair value for their shares. However, regardless of whether such rights are or are not available, shareholders are still entitled to exercise the rights of redemption as set out herein, and SPAC Board has determined that the redemption proceeds payable to shareholders who exercise such redemption rights represents the fair value of those shares.

Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares who elect to exercise appraisal rights will lose their right to exercise their redemption rights as described herein.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

In the opinion of White & Case LLP, the following are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences (i) of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares (excluding any redeemed shares) and SPAC Public Warrants (each a “SPAC Security”), (ii) of the subsequent ownership and disposition of CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants (each a “CayCo Security”) received in the Business Combination and (iii) exercise of redemption rights by SPAC Shareholders. In addition, the following includes a general discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to SPAC and CayCo.

For purposes of this discussion, because the components of a SPAC Unit are generally separable at the option of the holder, the holder of SPAC Unit generally should be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as the owner of the underlying SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and SPAC Public Warrant components of the SPAC Unit. Accordingly, the separation of a SPAC Unit into the one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one SPAC Public Warrant underlying the SPAC Unit generally should not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This position is not free from doubt, and no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position. Holders of SPAC Securities are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal, state, local and any non-U.S. tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination (including any redemption of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Share) with respect to any SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and SPAC Public Warrant held through SPAC Units (including alternative characterizations of SPAC Units).

This discussion is based on provisions of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (whether final, temporary, or proposed), administrative rulings of the IRS, and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a holder as a result of the Business Combination or as a result of the ownership and disposition of CayCo Securities. In addition, this discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders nor does it take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such holder, and accordingly, is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, tax advice. This summary does not address any tax consequences to investors that directly or indirectly hold equity interests in CayCo prior to the Business Combination. With respect to consequences of holding CayCo Securities, this discussion is limited to holders who acquire such CayCo Securities in connection with the Business Combination or as a result of the exercise of a CayCo Warrant, and with respect to CayCo Warrants, this discussion is limited to holders who hold such CayCo Warrants as a result of their ownership of SPAC Public Warrants prior to and through the Business Combination. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal 3.8% Medicare tax imposed on certain net investment income or any aspects of U.S. federal taxation other than those pertaining to the income tax, nor does it address any tax consequences arising under any U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax laws. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding such tax consequences in light of their particular circumstances.

No ruling has Been requested or will be obtained from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination or any other related matter; thus, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the U.S. federal income tax treatment described below or that, if challenged, such treatment will be sustained by a court.

This summary is limited to considerations relevant to U.S. Holders that hold SPAC Securities and, after the completion of the Business Combination, CayCo Securities, as “capital assets” within the meaning of section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to holders in light of their individual circumstances, including holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. tax laws, such as, for example:

• banks or other financial institutions, underwriters, or insurance companies;

• traders in securities who elect to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting;

• real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies;

• tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts;

140

Table of Contents

• expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

• subchapter S corporations, partnerships or other pass-through entities or investors in such entities;

• dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies;

• grantor trusts and estates;

• persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

• U.S. persons whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar;

• persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement;

• governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

• mutual funds;

• partnerships (including entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes);

• the Sponsor or its affiliates, officers or directors;

• persons who received SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities through the issuance of restricted stock under an incentive plan or through a tax-qualified retirement plan or otherwise as compensation;

• persons who own (directly or through attribution) 5% or more (by vote or value) of the issued and outstanding SPAC Ordinary Shares, or, after the Business Combination, the issued CayCo Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares); or

• holders holding SPAC Securities, or, after the Business Combination, CayCo Securities, as a position in a “straddle,” as part of a “synthetic security” or “hedge,” as part of a “conversion transaction,” or other integrated investment or risk reduction transaction.

As used in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of SPAC Securities, and, after the Business Combination, CayCo Securities received in the Business Combination, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation (or other entity that is classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia;

• an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust (i) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership, including for this purpose any entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds SPAC Securities, and, after the completion of the Business Combination, CayCo Securities received in the Business Combination, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder that is a partnership and the partners in such partnership should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination and the subsequent ownership and disposition of CayCo Securities received in the Business Combination. This discussion also assumes that any distribution made (or deemed made) on SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities and any consideration received (or deemed received) by a holder in consideration for the sale or other disposition of SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities will be in U.S. dollars.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION. SPAC SHAREHOLDERS AND WARRANT HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, THE EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS BY SPAC SHAREHOLDERS AND OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF CayCo SECURITIES AFTER THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

1. U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders

1. Generally

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders of SPAC Securities will depend, in part, on (1) whether the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger qualify as a transfer of property described in Section 351 of the Code and (2) whether the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Legal counsel to SPAC is unable to opine regarding the qualification of the Merger and the TCO Restructuring for the Intended Tax Treatment because of certain legal and factual uncertainties.

There are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Merger to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code and/or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, some of which are based upon factual determinations, and the Intended Tax Treatment could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur or are taken after the Merger. One such requirement, among others, for the Merger to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code is that the acquiring corporation continue, either directly or indirectly through certain controlled corporations, either a significant line of the acquired corporation’s historic business or use a significant portion of the acquired corporation’s historic business assets in a business, in each case, within the meaning of Treasury regulations Section 1.368-1(d). However, due to the absence of guidance bearing directly on how the above rules apply in the case of an acquisition of a corporation with no active business and only investment-type assets, such as SPAC, we cannot provide guidance on whether the Merger qualifies as a reorganization. In addition, the treatment of the Merger as a reorganization would depend on whether sufficient shareholders of SPAC exchange their ordinary shares for CayCo Ordinary Shares rather than redeem it for cash. If a significant number of shareholders of SPAC decide to redeem their ordinary shares, the “continuity of business enterprise” requirement that is necessary to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code may not be satisfied. Further, for a transaction to qualify under Section 351(a) of the Code, persons who transfer property to a corporation in exchange for stock must be in control (as specifically defined under the Code) of the corporation immediately after the exchange. For the transaction to qualify under Section 351(a) of the Code, shareholders of the SPAC along with the TCO Shareholders who subscribe for shares of CayCo in connection with the Company Shareholder Subscription must be treated as part of a single group for purposes of satisfying this control requirement. Due to the funding of the Company Shareholders Subscription and the transitory nature of the cash used in the Company Shareholder Subscription it is not clear whether the TCO Shareholders who subscribe for shares of CayCo in connection with the Company Shareholder Subscription would be treated as part of the required control group for purposes of Section 351(a) of the Code, and thus there is significant legal uncertainty due to a lack of clear authority on point as to whether the Merger together with the TCO Restructuring will qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code. Due to the absence of guidance bearing directly on whether an acquisition of a corporation with no active business can qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code, or whether the TCO Restructuring together with the Merger will qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code, legal counsel to SPAC on U.S. federal income tax matters is not able to render an opinion that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code. No ruling has been, or will be, sought by SPAC or CayCo from the IRS with respect to the Business Combination and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the qualification of the Merger as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code or that a court would not sustain such a challenge.

ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND THE POTENTIAL TREATMENT OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.

2. If the Merger Qualifies as a Reorganization within the Meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as Part of an Integrated Transaction Governed by Section 351 of the Code

a. With respect to SPAC Ordinary Shares

If the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code and/or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, and subject to the limitations, exceptions and qualifications described herein, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its SPAC Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination should not recognize gain or loss on the exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares for CayCo Ordinary Shares. The aggregate adjusted tax basis of a U.S. Holder in the CayCo Ordinary Shares received as a result of the Business Combination should equal the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the SPAC Ordinary Shares surrendered in the exchange. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the CayCo Ordinary Shares received in the exchange should include the holding period for the SPAC Ordinary Shares surrendered in the exchange.

b. With respect to SPAC Public Warrants

If the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, regardless of whether it qualifies as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code and subject to the limitations, exceptions and qualifications described herein, U.S. Holders of SPAC Public Warrants generally should not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the deemed exchange of their SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants in connection with the Merger, and such U.S. Holder’s basis in the CayCo Warrants deemed received should be equal to the U.S. Holder’s basis in its SPAC Public Warrants deemed transferred.

If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code but qualifies as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, the treatment of a U.S. Holder’s exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants in connection with the Merger is uncertain. It is possible that a U.S. Holder could be treated as transferring its SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants in exchange for CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code. In such case, such U.S. Holder should be required to recognize gain (but not loss), computed on an asset by asset basis with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of gain realized by such U.S. Holder (generally, the excess of (x) the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants or the CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable, received by such holder, over (y) such holder’s adjusted tax basis in the SPAC Public Warrants and SPAC Ordinary Shares, as applicable, exchanged therefor) and (ii) the appropriate allocation to the SPAC Ordinary Shares or SPAC Public Warrants, as applicable, of the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants treated as having been received by such holder in such exchange. For purposes of determining the appropriate allocation of the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants describe in the preceding clause (ii), the holder allocates the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants between the SPAC Ordinary Shares and the SPAC Public Warrants based on the proportionate fair market values of the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants exchanged in the Merger. It is also possible that a U.S. Holder could be treated as exchanging its SPAC Public Warrants for “new” warrants (i.e., CayCo Warrants) in a taxable transaction that is distinct from the exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares for CayCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Merger. In such case, the U.S. Holder should be required to recognize gain or loss in such deemed exchange in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants held by such U.S. Holder immediately following the Merger and the adjusted tax basis of the SPAC Public Warrants held by such U.S. Holder immediately prior to the Merger.

U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular consequences to them of the exchange of SPAC Securities for CayCo Securities pursuant to the Business Combination, and the qualification of the Merger as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code.

3. If the Merger Does Not Qualify as a Reorganization within the Meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as Part of an Integrated Transaction Governed by Section 351 of the Code

If the Merger fails to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, a U.S. Holder that exchanges its SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants for the consideration under the Business Combination will recognize gain or loss, computed on an asset by asset basis with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, equal to the difference

143

Table of Contents

between (i) the fair market value of the CayCo Ordinary Shares or CayCo Warrants, as applicable, received and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, as applicable, exchanged therefor. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants received will be the fair market value of those securities on the date the U.S. Holder receives them. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants received pursuant to the Business Combination will begin on the day after the date the U.S. Holder receives such CayCo Ordinary Shares and CayCo Warrants. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, as the case may be, exceeds one year at the time of the Business Combination. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, currently are subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Shareholders who hold different blocks of SPAC Securities (generally, SPAC Securities purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them, and the discussion above does not specifically address all of the consequences to U.S. Holders who hold different blocks of SPAC Securities.

4. Additional Analysis for SPAC Public Warrants

Notwithstanding the discussion above, the SPAC Public Warrants becoming exercisable for CayCo Ordinary Shares, and the SPAC Public Warrant agreements being assigned to, and assumed by, CayCo, may independently constitute a tax-deferred transaction in which no gain or loss is recognized by the U.S. Holders of SPAC Public Warrants (except as provided below under the subsection entitled “— 5. PFIC Considerations”) on the basis that the terms of the SPAC Public Warrants are not otherwise being changed pursuant to the Merger and because the terms of the SPAC Public Warrants, when originally issued, contemplated, among other things, the SPAC Public Warrants becoming exercisable into shares of another corporation under circumstances similar to the Merger. However, due to a lack of clear authority, the issue is not free from doubt, and there is a risk that the warrant exchange transaction would be treated as a taxable exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants, and no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, such a contrary position.

If the SPAC Public Warrants becoming exercisable for CayCo Ordinary Shares constitutes a tax-deferred transaction, the adjusted tax basis of the CayCo Warrants of such a U.S. Holder immediately after the Merger generally should be the same as the adjusted tax basis of such U.S. Holder’s SPAC Public Warrants immediately prior to the Merger. In addition, the holding period of the CayCo Warrants of such a U.S. Holder immediately after the Merger would include the period during which such U.S. Holder held such U.S. Holder’s SPAC Public Warrants immediately prior to the Merger.

If the SPAC Public Warrants becoming exercisable for CayCo Ordinary Shares constitutes a taxable exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants and the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code but qualifies as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, the discussion under the subsection entitled “— 2. If the Merger Qualifies as a Reorganization within the Meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as Part of an Integrated Transaction Governed by Section 351 of the Code” would apply with respect to the SPAC Public Warrants. If the SPAC Public Warrants becoming exercisable for CayCo Ordinary Shares constitutes a taxable exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants and the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or a part of an Integrated Transaction Governed by Section 351 of the Code, the discussion under the subsection entitled “— 3. If the Merger Does Not Qualify as a Reorganization within the Meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as Part of an Integrated Transaction Governed by Section 351 of the Code,” would apply with respect to the SPAC Public Warrants.

5. PFIC Considerations

Regardless of whether the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or whether the Merger qualifies as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, the Merger could be a taxable event to U.S. Holders under the passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) provisions of the Code if SPAC is considered a PFIC.

A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (generally determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year), including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business received from unrelated persons) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. The determination of whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is made annually. Pursuant to a “startup exception,” a foreign corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the foreign corporation has gross income (the “startup year”) if (1) no predecessor of the foreign corporation was a PFIC; (2) the foreign corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the startup year; and (3) the foreign corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those years.

b. PFIC Status of SPAC

Based upon the composition of its income and assets, and upon a review of its financial statements, taking into account the structure of the Business Combination, SPAC is not expected to be eligible for the startup exception, and thus SPAC is expected to be a PFIC for the 2022 taxable year and for the current and future taxable years.

c. Effects of PFIC Rules on the Merger

Even if the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, Section 1291(f) of the Code requires that, to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations, a U.S. person who disposes of stock of a PFIC (including for this purpose exchanging warrants of a PFIC for newly issued warrants in connection with a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code) recognizes gain notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. No final Treasury Regulations are currently in effect under Section 1291(f) of the Code. However, proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code have been promulgated with a retroactive effective date. If finalized in their current form, those proposed Treasury Regulations would require gain recognition to U.S. Holders of SPAC Securities as a result of the Merger if:

(i) SPAC were classified as a PFIC at any time during such U.S. Holder’s holding period in such SPAC Securities; and

(ii) the U.S. Holder had not timely made (a) a QEF Election (as defined below) for the first taxable year in which the U.S. Holder owned such SPAC Ordinary Shares or in which SPAC was a PFIC, whichever is later (or a QEF Election along with a purging election), or (b) an MTM Election (as defined below) with respect to such SPAC Ordinary Shares. Currently, applicable Treasury Regulations provide that neither a QEF Election nor an MTM Election can be made with respect to warrants.

The tax on any such recognized gain would be imposed based on a complex set of computational rules designed to offset the tax deferral with respect to the undistributed earnings of SPAC. Under these rules:

• the U.S. Holder’s gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such U.S. Holder’s SPAC Securities;

• the amount of gain allocated to the U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. Holder recognized the gain, or to the period in the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of the first taxable year in which SPAC was a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

• the amount of gain allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. Holder and included in such U.S. Holder’s holding period would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. Holder without regard to the U.S. Holder’s other items of income and loss for such year; and

• an additional tax equal to the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the U.S. Holder in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year (described in the third bullet above) of such U.S. Holder.

Table of Contents

It is unclear whether, in what form and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code may be adopted or how any such final Treasury Regulations would apply. Therefore, U.S. Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares that have not made a timely and effective QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) or an MTM Election (each as defined below) may, pursuant to the proposed Treasury Regulations, be subject to taxation under the PFIC rules on the Merger with respect to their SPAC Securities under the PFIC rules in the manner set forth above. A U.S. Holder that made a timely and effective QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) or an MTM Election with respect to its SPAC Ordinary Shares is referred to herein as an “Electing Shareholder” and a U.S. Holder that is not an Electing Shareholder is referred to herein as a “Non-Electing Shareholder.”

The application of the PFIC rules to U.S. Holders of SPAC Public Warrants is unclear. Proposed Treasury Regulations issued under the PFIC rules generally treat an “option” (which would include a SPAC Public Warrant) to acquire the stock of a PFIC as stock of the PFIC, while final Treasury Regulations issued under the PFIC rules provide that the QEF Election does not apply to options and no MTM Election (as defined below) is currently available with respect to options. Therefore, it is possible that the proposed Treasury Regulations if finalized in their current form would apply to cause gain recognition on the exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants in connection with the Merger.

Any gain recognized by a Non-Electing Shareholder of SPAC Ordinary Shares or a U.S. Holder of SPAC Public Warrants as a result of the Merger pursuant to PFIC rules would be taxable income to such U.S. Holder, taxed under the PFIC rules in the manner set forth above, with no corresponding receipt of cash.

As noted above, if SPAC is considered a PFIC, the Merger could be a taxable event under the PFIC rules regardless of whether the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code. If the Merger fails to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, absent a QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) or an MTM Election, a U.S. Holder would be taxed under the PFIC rules in the manner set forth above.

ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE EFFECTS OF THE PFIC RULES ON THE MERGER, INCLUDING THE IMPACT OF ANY PROPOSED OR FINAL TREASURY REGULATIONS.

d. QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election

The impact of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder of SPAC Ordinary Shares will depend on whether the U.S. Holder has made a timely and effective election to treat SPAC as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code for the taxable year that is the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period of SPAC Ordinary Shares during which SPAC qualified as a PFIC (a “QEF Election”) or, if in a later taxable year, the U.S. Holder made a QEF Election along with a purging election. A purging election creates a deemed sale of the U.S. Holder’s SPAC Ordinary Shares at their then fair market value and requires the U.S. Holder to recognize gain pursuant to the purging election subject to the special PFIC tax and interest charge rules described above. As a result of any such purging election, the U.S. Holder would increase the adjusted tax basis in its SPAC Ordinary Shares by the amount of the gain recognized and, solely for purposes of the PFIC rules, would have a new holding period in its SPAC Ordinary Shares. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the application of the rules governing purging elections to their particular circumstances.

A U.S. Holder’s ability to make a timely and effective QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) with respect to SPAC is contingent upon, among other things, the provision by SPAC of a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” to such U.S. Holder. SPAC will endeavor to provide PFIC Annual Information Statements, upon written request, to U.S. Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares with respect to each taxable year for which SPAC determines it is a PFIC. There is no assurance, however, that SPAC will timely provide such information. As discussed further above, a U.S. Holder is not able to make a QEF Election with respect to SPAC Public Warrants under applicable final Treasury Regulations. An Electing Shareholder generally would not be subject to the adverse PFIC rules discussed above with respect to their SPAC Ordinary Shares. As a result, such an Electing Shareholder generally should not recognize income, gain or loss as a result of the Merger, subject to the discussion herein generally under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders,” but rather would include annually in gross income its pro rata share of the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of SPAC, whether or not such amounts are actually distributed.

146

Table of Contents

The impact of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder of SPAC Ordinary Shares may also depend on whether the U.S. Holder has made a mark-to-market election under Section 1296 of the Code. U.S. Holders who hold (actually or constructively) stock of a foreign corporation that is classified as a PFIC may annually elect to mark such stock to its market value if such stock is “marketable stock,” generally, stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC (an “MTM Election”). No assurance can be given that the SPAC Ordinary Shares are considered to be marketable stock for purposes of the MTM Election or whether the other requirements of this election are satisfied. If such an election is available and has been made, such U.S. Holders will generally not be subject to the special taxation rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed herein with respect their SPAC Ordinary Shares in connection with the Merger. Instead, in general, the U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its SPAC Ordinary Shares at the end of its taxable year over its adjusted basis in its SPAC Ordinary Shares. The U.S. Holder also will recognize an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of its adjusted basis in its SPAC Ordinary Shares over the fair market value of its SPAC Ordinary Shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the MTM Election). The U.S. Holder’s basis in its SPAC Ordinary Shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of its SPAC Ordinary Shares will be treated as ordinary income. However, if the MTM Election is not made by a U.S. Holder with respect to the first taxable year of its holding period for the PFIC stock, then the Section 1291 rules discussed above will apply to certain dispositions of, distributions on and other amounts taxable with respect to, SPAC Ordinary Shares, including in connection with the Merger. An MTM Election is not available with respect to warrants, including the SPAC Public Warrants.

e. Reporting

A U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the U.S. Holder may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF or MTM election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department. Failure to do so, if required, will extend the statute of limitations until such required information is furnished to the IRS and may result in significant penalties.

THE RULES DEALING WITH PFICS ARE VERY COMPLEX AND ARE IMPACTED BY VARIOUS FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THOSE DESCRIBED ABOVE. ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PFIC RULES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WHETHER A QEF ELECTION (OR A QEF ELECTION ALONG WITH A PURGING ELECTION), AN MTM ELECTION OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND WHETHER AND HOW ANY OVERLAP RULES APPLY, AND THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ANY SUCH ELECTION OR OVERLAP RULE AND THE IMPACT OF ANY PROPOSED OR FINAL PFIC TREASURY REGULATIONS.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights to U.S. Holders

In the event that a U.S. Holder elects to redeem its SPAC Ordinary Shares for cash, the treatment of the transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as sale or exchange of the SPAC Ordinary Shares under Section 302 of the Code. Except as provided below related to the potential treatment of SPAC as a PFIC, if the redemption qualifies as a sale or exchange of the SPAC Ordinary Shares, the U.S. Holder will be treated as recognizing capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the redemption and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the SPAC Ordinary Shares surrendered in such redemption transaction. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the SPAC Ordinary Shares redeemed exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. It is unclear, however, whether the redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares have suspended the applicable holding period for this purpose. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

If the redemption does not qualify as a sale or exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares, the U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution. Except as provided below related to the potential treatment of SPAC as a PFIC, such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from SPAC’ current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the SPAC Ordinary Shares. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the ordinary shares. Dividends paid to a U.S. Holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite

147

Table of Contents

holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations) and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. However, it is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares may prevent a U.S. Holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.

Whether a redemption qualifies for sale or exchange treatment will depend largely on the total number of SPAC Ordinary Shares treated as held by the U.S. Holder relative to all of the SPAC Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding both before and after the redemption. The redemption of SPAC Ordinary Shares generally will be treated as a sale or exchange of the SPAC Ordinary Shares (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the U.S. Holder’s interest in SPAC or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the foregoing tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder takes into account not only SPAC Ordinary Shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also SPAC Ordinary Shares that are constructively owned by it. A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to stock owned directly, stock owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder. In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of SPAC’s issued and outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately following the redemption of the SPAC Ordinary Shares must, among other requirements, be less than 80% of the percentage of SPAC’s issued and outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder immediately before the redemption. There will be a complete termination of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of the shares of the SPAC Ordinary Shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the SPAC Ordinary Shares actually owned by the U.S. Holder are redeemed and the U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of stock owned by certain family members and the U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other SPAC Ordinary Shares. The redemption of the SPAC Ordinary Shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if a U.S. Holder’s conversion results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in SPAC. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in SPAC will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.” A U.S. Holder should consult with its own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption.

If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then the redemption will be treated as a corporate distribution. After the application of those rules regarding corporate distributions, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. Holder in the redeemed ordinary shares will be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining SPAC Ordinary Shares, or possibly in other SPAC Ordinary Shares constructively owned by it.

However, if a U.S. Holder exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for a portion of its SPAC Ordinary Shares or, if such U.S. Holder exercises its redemption right with respect to all of its SPAC Ordinary Shares but maintains its ownership of SPAC Public Warrants, such redemption may be treated as integrated with the Merger rather than as a separate transaction. In such case, if the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, and if the redemption is treated as integrated with the Merger (rather than as a separate transaction), cash received by such U.S. Holder in the redemption may also be treated as taxable boot received in the reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code (which, depending on the circumstances applicable to such U.S. Holder, may be treated either as (i) capital gain (but not loss) in a manner similar to that described above but not in excess of the amount of cash received or (ii) dividend income to the extent of (although not entirely clear) CayCo’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code but qualifies as part of an integrated transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, it is possible that such cash, together with CayCo Warrants (if any) received in exchange for SPAC Public Warrants, may be treated as taxable boot received in to the transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, in which case gain (but not loss) may be recognized on the Merger and redemption, computed on an asset by asset basis with respect to the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants, in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of gain realized by such holder (generally, the excess (if any) of (x) the value ) of the CayCo Ordinary Shares received in the Merger and the

148

Table of Contents

cash received in the redemption or the value of the CayCo Warrants, as applicable, over (y) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the SPAC Ordinary Shares or SPAC Public Warrants, as applicable, exchanged therefor pursuant to the Merger and/or the redemption) and (B) the appropriate allocation to the SPAC Ordinary Shares or SPAC Public Warrants, as applicable, of the sum of the amount of cash received in the redemption and the value of the CayCo Warrants received in the Merger). For purposes of determining the appropriate allocation of the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants and the cash received in the redemption describe in the preceding clause (B), the holder allocates the fair market value of the CayCo Warrants and the cash received in the redemption between the SPAC Ordinary Shares and the SPAC Public Warrants based on the proportionate fair market values of the SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants exchanged in the Merger.

In addition, if a U.S. Holder that elects to participate in a redemption with respect to all its SPAC Ordinary Shares maintains its ownership of SPAC Public Warrants, such redemption also may be treated as integrated with the Merger rather than as a separate transaction (with the same taxation effects described in the above paragraph). In such case, even if the Merger were treated as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code, and no gain or loss generally would be recognized upon the deemed exchange of SPAC Public Warrants for CayCo Warrants, cash received by such U.S. Holder in a redemption may also be treated as taxable boot received in the reorganization under Section 368 of the Code. Under this possible characterization, such U.S. Holder generally is expected to recognize capital gain (but not loss) on such redemption in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the SPAC Ordinary Shares exchanged therefor.

U.S. Holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a redemption of all or a portion of their SPAC Ordinary Shares pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights.

PFIC Considerations

As discussed above under the heading “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders — 5. PFIC Considerations,” it is expected that SPAC will be a PFIC for the 2022 taxable year and the current and future taxable years.

If SPAC is a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and, that the U.S. Holder did not make either an applicable PFIC election (or elections), as described above under the heading “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders — 5. PFIC Considerations — d. QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election,” for the first taxable year of SPAC in which it was treated as a PFIC, and in which the U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or otherwise, such U.S. Holder generally will be subject to special and adverse rules with respect to (i) any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (such as gain described above if the redemption qualifies for sale or exchange treatment) and (ii) any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in respect of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period for the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares), including potentially a distribution described above if the redemption does not qualify as a sale or exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares and the U.S. Holder is treated as receiving a corporate distribution.

Under these rules:

• the U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such U.S. Holder’s SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares;

• the amount allocated to the U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of the first taxable year in which SPAC was a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

• the amount allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. Holder and included in such U.S. Holder’s holding period would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. Holder without regard to the U.S. Holder’s other items of income and loss for such year; and

149

Table of Contents

As discussed above, if SPAC is considered a PFIC, the impact of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will depend on whether the U.S. Holder has made a timely and effective QEF Election for the taxable year that is the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares during which SPAC qualified as a PFIC (or, if in a later taxable year, the U.S. Holder made a QEF Election along with a purging election) or if the U.S. Holder has made an MTM Election. See the discussion above under the heading “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders — 5. PFIC Considerations — d. QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election,” for a description of the consequences to a U.S. Holder of making the foregoing elections, which may mitigate the adverse consequences under the PFIC rules as a result of the redemption of a U.S. Holder’s SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

A U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the U.S. Holder may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF Election or MTM election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department. Failure to do so, if required, will extend the statute of limitations until such required information is furnished to the IRS and may result in significant penalties.

THE RULES DEALING WITH PFICS ARE VERY COMPLEX AND ARE IMPACTED BY VARIOUS FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THOSE DESCRIBED ABOVE, INCLUDING THE RULES RELATING TO CONTROLLED FOREIGN CORPORATIONS. ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PFIC RULES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WHETHER A QEF ELECTION (OR A QEF ELECTION ALONG WITH A PURGING ELECTION), AN MTM ELECTION OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND WHETHER IT WOULD BE DESIRABLE TO MAKE SUCH AN ELECTION.

ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF A REDEMPTION OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR SPAC ORDINARY SHARES PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

Ownership and Disposition of CayCo Securities by U.S. Holders

Distributions on CayCo Ordinary Shares

Subject to the discussion below under “— PFIC Considerations,” if CayCo makes distributions of cash or property on the CayCo Ordinary Shares, such distributions will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes first as a dividend to the extent of CayCo’s current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes), and then as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis, with any excess treated as capital gain from the sale or exchange of the shares. Since CayCo does not intend to provide calculations of its earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, a U.S. Holder generally would be required to treat all such distributions as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any dividend generally will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from U.S. corporations.

• Subject to the discussion below under “PFIC Considerations,” dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) may be “qualified dividend income,” which is taxed at the lower applicable capital gains rate, provided that:

• the CayCo Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States;

• CayCo is neither a PFIC (as discussed below under below under “PFIC Considerations”) nor treated as such with respect to the U.S. Holder in any taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year;

• the U.S. Holder satisfies certain holding period requirements; and

• the U.S. Holder is not under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property.

150

Table of Contents

There can be no assurance that CayCo Ordinary Shares will be considered “readily tradable” on an established securities market in the United States in accordance with applicable legal authorities. Furthermore, there can no assurance that CayCo will not be treated as a PFIC in any taxable year. See discussion below under “PFIC Considerations.” U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for dividends paid with respect to CayCo Ordinary Shares. Subject to certain exceptions, dividends on CayCo Ordinary Shares will constitute foreign source income for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. If such dividends are qualified dividend income (as discussed above), the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the reduced rate applicable to qualified dividend income and the denominator of which is the highest rate of tax normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by CayCo with respect to the CayCo Ordinary Shares generally will constitute “passive category income” but could, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, constitute “general category income.”

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of CayCo Securities

Subject to the discussion below under “PFIC Considerations,” a U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of CayCo Securities in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the amount realized on the disposition and (ii) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such CayCo Securities, as applicable. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of CayCo Securities generally will be capital gain or loss. A non-corporate U.S. Holder, including an individual, who has held the CayCo Securities for more than one year generally will be eligible for reduced tax rates for such long-term capital gains. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss recognized generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss. In the event any non-U.S. tax (including withholding tax) is imposed upon such sale or other disposition, a U.S. Holder’s ability to claim a foreign tax credit for such non-U.S. tax is subject to various limitations and restrictions. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the ability to claim a foreign tax credit.

Exercise, Lapse or Redemption of CayCo Warrants

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under “PFIC Considerations” and except as discussed below with respect to the cashless exercise of a CayCo Warrant, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize taxable gain or loss on the exercise of a CayCo Warrant. The U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the CayCo Ordinary Share received upon exercise of a CayCo Warrant generally will be an amount equal to the sum of the U.S. Holder’s initial investment in the SPAC Public Warrant in respect of which the exercised CayCo Warrant was received, any gain recognized with respect to the exchange of such SPAC Public Warrant for the CayCo Warrant, and the exercise price of such CayCo Warrant. It is unclear whether the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the CayCo Ordinary Shares received upon exercise of the CayCo Warrants will begin on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the CayCo Warrants; in either case, the holding period will not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the CayCo Warrants. If a CayCo Warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the CayCo Warrant.

The tax consequences of a cashless exercise of a CayCo Warrant are not clear under current tax law. Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below under “PFIC Considerations,” a cashless exercise may be tax-free, either because the exercise is not a realization event or because the exercise is treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In either tax-free situation, a U.S. Holder’s basis in the CayCo Ordinary Shares received generally should equal the U.S. Holder’s basis in the CayCo Warrants exercised therefor. If the cashless exercise were treated as not being a realization event (and not a recapitalization), it is unclear whether a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the CayCo Ordinary Shares would be treated as commencing on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the CayCo Warrant; in either case, the holding period would not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the CayCo Warrants. If the cashless exercise were treated as a recapitalization, the holding period of the CayCo Ordinary Shares would include the holding period of the CayCo Warrants exercised therefor.

It is also possible that a cashless exercise could be treated in part as a taxable exchange in which gain or loss would be recognized. In such event, a U.S. Holder could be deemed to have surrendered CayCo Warrants with an aggregate fair market value equal to the exercise price for the total number of CayCo Warrants to be exercised. The U.S. Holder would recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of

151

Table of Contents

the CayCo Warrants deemed surrendered and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such CayCo Warrants. In this case, a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the CayCo Ordinary Shares received would equal the sum of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the CayCo Warrants exercised and the exercise price of such CayCo Warrants. It is unclear whether a U.S. Holder’s holding period for CayCo Ordinary Shares would commence on the date following the date of exercise or on the date of exercise of the CayCo Warrants; in either case, the holding period would not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the CayCo Warrants. Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise, including when a U.S. Holder’s holding period would commence with respect to the CayCo Ordinary Shares received, there can be no assurance which, if any, of the alternative tax consequences and holding periods described above would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a cashless exercise.

If CayCo redeems CayCo Warrants for cash pursuant to the redemption provisions applicable to the CayCo Warrants or if CayCo purchases CayCo Warrants in an open market transaction, such redemption or purchase generally will be treated as a taxable disposition to the U.S. Holder, taxed as described above under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of CayCo Securities.”

Possible Constructive Distributions

The terms of each CayCo Warrant (which will have, and be subject to, substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such SPAC Public Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination) provide for an adjustment to the number of CayCo Ordinary Shares for which the CayCo Warrant may be exercised or to the exercise price of the CayCo Warrant in certain events, as discussed in the section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement entitled “Description of Securities — Securities of Chenghe prior to the Business Combination — Warrants — Public Warrants — Anti-Dilution Adjustments” and “Description of Securities — Securities of CayCo — Warrants.” An adjustment that has the effect of preventing dilution generally is not taxable. The U.S. Holders of the CayCo Warrants would, however, be treated as receiving a constructive distribution from CayCo if, for example, the adjustment to the number of such CayCo Ordinary Shares received upon exercise of the CayCo Warrants or to the exercise price of the CayCo Warrants increases the proportionate interest of the U.S. Holder of CayCo Warrants in CayCo’s assets or earnings and profits (e.g., through an increase in the number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that would be obtained upon exercise or through a decrease in the exercise price of a CayCo Warrant) as a result of a distribution (or a transaction treated as a distribution) of cash or other property, such as other securities, to the holders of CayCo Ordinary Shares, which is taxable to the holders of such shares as a distribution. Such constructive distribution would be subject to tax as described under that section in the same manner as if the U.S. Holders of the CayCo Warrants received a cash distribution from CayCo equal to the fair market value of such increased interest.

PFIC Considerations

The treatment of U.S. Holders of the CayCo Securities could be materially different from that described above, if CayCo is treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes (for a general discussion of the PFIC rules, see above under the heading “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Business Combination to U.S. Holders — 5. PFIC Considerations — a. Definition of a PFIC”).

As of the date hereof, CayCo has not made a determination as to its PFIC status for its current taxable year or any other taxable year. Whether CayCo is a PFIC is determined on an annual basis. The determination of whether CayCo is a PFIC is a factual determination that depends on, among other things, the composition of CayCo’s income and assets, and the market value of its shares and assets, including the composition of income and assets and the market value of shares and assets of certain subsidiaries, from time to time, and thus the determination can only be made annually after the close of each taxable year. Thus, no assurance can be given as to whether CayCo will be a PFIC in its current taxable year or for any future taxable year. In addition, none of SPAC’s or CayCo’s respective U.S. counsel expresses any opinion with respect to CayCo’s PFIC status for any taxable year.

Under the PFIC rules, if CayCo were considered a PFIC at any time that a U.S. Holder owns CayCo Securities, CayCo would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such investment unless (i) it ceased to be a PFIC and (ii) the U.S. Holder made a “deemed sale” election under the PFIC rules. If such election is made, a U.S. Holder will be deemed to have sold its CayCo Ordinary Shares at their fair market value on the last day of the last taxable year

152

Table of Contents

in which CayCo is classified as a PFIC, and any gain from such deemed sale would be subject to the consequences described below. After the deemed sale election, the CayCo Ordinary Shares with respect to which the deemed sale election was made will not be treated as shares in a PFIC unless CayCo subsequently becomes a PFIC.

For each taxable year that CayCo is treated as a PFIC with respect to a U.S. Holder’s CayCo Ordinary Shares, the U.S. Holder will be subject to special tax rules, as described above under the heading “— Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights to U. S. Holders — PFIC Considerations.”

It is not entirely clear how various aspects of the PFIC rules apply to the CayCo Warrants. If a U.S. Holder sells or otherwise disposes of CayCo Warrants (other than upon exercise of such warrants) and CayCo were a PFIC at any time during the U.S. Holder’s holding period of such CayCo Warrants, any gain recognized generally will be treated as an excess distribution, taxed as described under the heading “— Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Exercising Redemption Rights to U. S. Holders — PFIC Considerations.”. The rules relating to “excess distributions” discussed above, will continue to apply with respect to CayCo Ordinary Shares resulting from the exercise of CayCo Warrants if CayCo were a PFIC during a U.S. Holder’s holding period (which, while not entirely clear, generally will be deemed to have a holding period for purposes of the PFIC rules that includes the period the U.S. Holder held the CayCo Warrant), unless the U.S. Holder makes a purging election under the PFIC rules. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the application of the rules governing purging elections to their particular circumstances.

Certain of the PFIC rules may impact U.S. Holders with respect to equity interests in subsidiaries and other entities which CayCo may hold, directly or indirectly, that are PFICs (collectively, “Lower-Tier PFICs”). There can be no assurance, however, that CayCo does not own, or will not in the future acquire, an interest in a subsidiary or other entity that is or would be treated as a Lower-Tier PFIC. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of CayCo’s subsidiaries.

If CayCo is a PFIC, a U.S. Holder of CayCo Ordinary Shares may avoid taxation under the Excess Distribution Rules described above by making a QEF Election. However, a U.S. Holder may make a QEF Election with respect to its CayCo Ordinary Shares only if CayCo provides U.S. Holders on an annual basis with certain financial information specified under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. Because CayCo currently does not intend to provide U.S. Holders with such information on an annual basis, U.S. Holders generally would not be able to make a QEF Election with respect to the CayCo Ordinary Shares.

A U.S. Holder of CayCo Ordinary Shares may also avoid taxation under the Excess Distribution Rules by making an MTM Election. The application of the PFIC rules to U.S. Holders of CayCo Warrants is unclear. Proposed Treasury Regulations issued under the PFIC rules generally treat an “option” (which would include a CayCo Warrant) to acquire the stock of a PFIC as stock of the PFIC, while final Treasury Regulations issued under the PFIC rules provide that the QEF Election does not apply to options and no MTM Election is currently available with respect to options.

A U.S. Holder that owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the U.S. Holder may have to file an IRS Form 8621 (whether or not a QEF Election or MTM Election is made) and such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department. Failure to do so, if required, will extend the statute of limitations until such required information is furnished to the IRS and may result in significant penalties.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends received by U.S. Holders of CayCo Securities (including constructive dividends), and the proceeds received on the sale or other taxable disposition of CayCo Securities effected within the United States (and, in certain cases, outside the United States), in each case, other than U.S. Holders that are exempt recipients (such as corporations). Information reporting requirements will also apply to redemptions from U.S. Holders of SPAC Securities. Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent or the U.S. Holder’s broker) or is otherwise subject to backup withholding.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or credit against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

The preceding discussion of certain material U.S. federal tax considerations is for general information purposes only. It is not tax advice to holders of SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities. Each such holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the particular U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. tax considerations of purchasing, holding, and disposing of SPAC Securities or CayCo Securities, including the consequences of any proposed change in applicable law.

MATERIAL TAIWAN INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a general summary of the principal Taiwan tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of CayCo Ordinary Shares immediately following the Business Combination by and to a non-resident individual or non-resident entity holder (referred to herein as a “Non-Taiwan Holder”). As used in the preceding sentence, a “non-resident individual” is generally a foreign national who owns CayCo Ordinary Shares and is not physically present in Taiwan for 183 days or more during any calendar year, and a “non-resident entity” is a corporation or a non-corporate body that owns CayCo Ordinary Shares and is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than Taiwan.

Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the Taiwan tax consequences of holding CayCo Ordinary Shares and the laws of any relevant taxing jurisdiction to which they are subject.

Capital gains from the sale or disposal of CayCo Ordinary Shares

Sale or disposal of the ordinary shares of a Cayman Islands company is generally not regarded as the sale of Taiwan securities; thus, any gains generated therefrom by Non-Taiwan Holders are not subject to Taiwan income tax.

Securities Transaction Tax

Sale of the ordinary shares of a Cayman Islands company by Non-Taiwan Holders is generally not subject to Taiwan securities transaction tax.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2023, gives pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had been consummated as of September 30, 2023, the beginning of the earliest period presented. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, and for nine months ended September 30, 2023, gives pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred as of January 1, 2022, the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Description of the Transactions

On July 21, 2023, SPAC, entered into a Business Combination Agreement with CayCo, Merger Sub and TCO, pursuant to which, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into SPAC with SPAC being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo, and SPAC will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.”.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time, (i) each outstanding SPAC Unit, consisting of one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant, will be automatically separated and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant; (ii) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and each SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; (iii) each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (A) issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion; and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) CayCo Ordinary Share; and (iv) each SPAC Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a CayCo Warrant, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the applicable SPAC Warrant. At the Closing, in accordance with the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SPAC will be the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo.

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the base equity value of TCO is $380,000,000 and will be paid entirely in shares, comprised of newly issued ordinary shares of the CayCo, with each share valued at the Per Share Price.

Accounting for the Transactions

The Transactions will be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, SPAC will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on TCO shareholders expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the combined company, TCO comprising the ongoing operations of the combined entity, TCO comprising a majority of the governing body of the combined company, and TCO’s senior management comprising the senior management of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Transactions will be treated as the equivalent of TCO issuing share for the net assets of SPAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of SPAC will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Transactions will be those of TCO.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 requires pro forma adjustments that depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and allows optional pro forma adjustments that present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination had occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors. The unaudited pro forma Transaction Accounting Adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 have been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

• SPAC’s unaudited condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the related notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, included elsewhere in this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement; and

• TCO’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the related notes for the six months ended September 30, 2023, included elsewhere in this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined company will experience. TCO and SPAC have not had any historical relationship prior to the Transactions. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

There is no historical activity with respect to CayCo and Merger Sub accordingly, no adjustments were required with respect to these entities in the pro forma combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared assuming two alternative levels of redemption into cash of SPAC’s ordinary shares:

• Scenario 1 — No Redemption Scenario: This scenario assumes that there are no SPAC Shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination;

• Scenario 2 — Intermediate Redemption Scenario: This scenario assumes that SPAC Shareholders holding 4,218,841 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, representing 50% of 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares remaining outstanding as of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, will exercise redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination; and

• Scenario 3 — Maximum Redemption Scenario: This scenario assumes that SPAC Shareholders holding 7,213,618 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination. The number of Public Shares redeemed under the maximum redemption scenario is calculated based on the assumptions that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles.

If no SPAC Public Shareholder exercises redemption rights (after giving effect to the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants) in connection with the business Combination, SPAC Public Shareholders, the Sponsor and its affiliates, the TCO Shareholders, and the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will own approximately 13.43%, 16.92%, 60.50% and 9.15% of the pro-forma CayCo Ordinary Shares outstanding at the Closing, respectively.

If 4,218,841 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination (after giving effect to the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants), SPAC Public Shareholders, the Sponsor and its affiliates, the TCO Shareholders, and the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will own approximately 7.20%, 18.14%, 64.85% and 9.81% of the pro-forma CayCo Ordinary Shares outstanding at the Closing, respectively.

If 7,213,618 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination (after giving effect to the exercises of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants), SPAC Public Shareholders, the Sponsor and its affiliates, the TCO Shareholders, and the holders of SPAC Public Warrants will own approximately 2.20%, 19.11%, 68.35% and 10.34% of the pro-forma CayCo Ordinary Shares outstanding at the Closing, respectively.

As such, SPAC shareholders who do not redeem their ordinary shares of SPAC will experience immediate and material dilution upon closing of the Business Combination.

TCO Shareholders	38,000,000	60.50	%	38,000,000	64.85	%	38,000,000	68.35	%
Public Shareholders	8,437,681	13.43	%	4,218,840	7.20	%	1,224,063	2.20	%
Holders of Founder Shares(3)	2,875,000	4.58	%	2,875,000	4.91	%	2,875,000	5.17	%
Holders of SPAC Public Warrants(1)	5,750,000	9.15	%	5,750,000	9.81	%	5,750,000	10.34	%
Holders of SPAC Private Warrants(2)(3)	7,750,000	12.34	%	7,750,000	13.23	%	7,750,000	13.94	%
Pro forma ordinary shares of the Post-Closing Company	62,812,681	100.0	%	58,593,840	100.0	%	55,599,063	100.0	%

____________

(1) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination.

(2) Assumes the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Private Placement Warrants, each for one CayCo Ordinary Share, at the closing of the Business Combination. As of the date of this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, the Sponsor has not extended any working capital loan to Chenghe, which may be convertible into private placement warrants at the option of the Sponsor. None of Chenghe, its directors and officers is aware of any intention to obtain any working capital loan from the Sponsor.

(3) The Sponsor and its affiliates’ total potential ownership interest in the post-Closing Company, assuming the exercise and conversion of all securities following the Closing, including the SPAC Private Placement Warrants and Founder Shares, is estimated to comprise approximately 16.92% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in a no redemption scenario, 18.13% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in an intermediate redemption scenario and 19.11% of outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares in a maximum redemption scenario.

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments

The Transaction Accounting Adjustments to the unaudited combined pro forma balance sheet consists of the following:

____________

(1) Reflects the release of cash from cash and investment held in the Trust Account.

(2) Reflects the settlement of $4.03 million of deferred underwriting commission incurred during the SPAC IPO due upon completion of the business combination and the settlement of $2.16 million of other payables, which are due to the Sponsor and other third parties.

(3) Reflects an adjustment of $3.05 million to reduce cash and $0.47 million to reduce deferred offering costs for transaction costs expected to be incurred by SPAC and TCO in relation to the Business Combination, including advisory, printing, legal and accounting services. $2.30 million incurred by SPAC was expensed and recorded in accumulated deficit, and the remaining $1.2 million incurred by TCO was determined to be deferred offering costs and offset to additional-paid-in capital.

(4) In Scenario 1, which assumes no further SPAC Shareholders, collectively holding 8,437,681 shares, exercises their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination. As of September 30, 2023, there were approximately $91.42 million in the Trust Account. Taking into account nil to be paid out in cash as redemption proceeds at the Closing of the Business Combination, all SPAC Public Shares previously subject to redemption for cash amounting to $91.42 million would be transferred to shareholders’ equity.

In Scenario 2, which reflects the redemption of nil share in connection with the Business Combination as reflected in Scenario 1 above, and additionally assumes that SPAC Shareholders holding 4,218,841 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, representing 50% of 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares remaining outstanding on the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, will exercise redemption rights at an assumed share price of US$10.83 in connection with the Business Combination. Under Scenario 2, an additional amount of $45.71 million in the trust account will be need to be paid out in cash as redemption proceeds at the closing of the Business Combination, as compared with Scenario 1.

In Scenario 3, which reflects the redemption of 4,218,841 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination, as reflected in Scenario 2 above, and additionally assumes that SPAC Shareholders holding 2,994,777 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights at an assumed share price of US$10.83 in connection with the Business Combination. Under Scenario 3, an additional amount of $32.43 million in the trust account would need to be paid out in cash as redemption proceeds would be paid out in cash at the closing of the Business Combination. Taking into account the $45.69 million paid out in connection with redemption under Scenario 2 above, a total of $78.12 million in the trust account will need to be paid out in cash as redemption proceeds. The number of Public Shares redeemed under the maximum redemption scenario is calculated based on the assumptions that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles. Assuming a $10.83 per share redemption price, the number of Public Shares remaining outstanding following the redemption must be at least 1,224,063 shares for SPAC to fulfill all of the abovementioned assumptions under Scenario 3.

(5) Reflects 1) recapitalization of TCO through issuance of SPAC shares and eliminate SPAC historical accumulated earnings; and 2) the contribution of all the share capital in TCO to SPAC.

Table of Contents

For the purposes of calculating the weighted average number of shares of Company ordinary shares outstanding, the effects of outstanding warrants and exchangeable units to purchase ordinary shares and employee share option plans were not considered in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the inclusion of such warrants and options would be anti-dilutive.

BUSINESS OF SPAC AND CERTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT SPAC

Overview

SPAC is a blank check company incorporated on April 7, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Prior to entering into the Business Combination Agreement, its acquisition strategy was to search globally for a target that can benefit from the expertise and capabilities of SPAC management to create long-term shareholder value. Based on SPAC’s business activities, SPAC is a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act because it has no operations and nominal assets consisting solely of cash and/or cash equivalents.

Initial Public Offering and Concurrent Private Placement

On May 2, 2022, SPAC consummated SPAC IPO of 11,500,000 SPAC Units, at an offering price of $10.00 per SPAC Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Each SPAC Unit consists of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one redeemable SPAC Public Warrant. Each whole SPAC Public Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. and Revere Securities LLC served as underwriters of the SPAC IPO. The securities sold in the SPAC IPO were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264061) (as amended). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on April 27, 2022.

Concurrently with the closing of the SPAC IPO, SPAC consummated a private placement to its Sponsor of 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, in a private placement generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000.

Following the closing of the SPAC IPO and the private placement, $118,450,000 was placed in the Trust Account, comprised of the proceeds from the SPAC IPO and the sale of SPAC Private Placement Warrants (including $4,025,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount). SPAC paid $2,300,000 in underwriting discounts and recorded approximately $1,300,000 for other costs and expenses related to the SPAC IPO.

SPAC may withdraw from the Trust Account interest earned on the funds held therein necessary to pay its income taxes, if any. Except as described in the prospectus for the SPAC IPO and described in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” these proceeds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of an initial business combination (including the Business Combination) and the redemption of 100% of the issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Share upon its failure to consummate a business combination within the required time period.

The remaining proceeds from the SPAC IPO and concurrent private placement, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other costs and expenses, held outside the Trust Account became available to be used as working capital to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses.

Extension

On July 5, 2023, SPAC filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the SEC for an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to be held on July 26, 2023 to seek approval from its shareholders to amend SPAC’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (i) extend the SPAC Termination Date, for three months, from August 2, 2023 (the date which is 15 months from the closing date of the SPAC IPO to November 2, 2023 for a deposit for the three-month period, of the lesser of (a) $300,000 and (b) $0.075 for each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share not redeemed as of August 2, 2023 and to allow SPAC, without the need for any further approval of SPAC Shareholders, by resolutions of SPAC Board, to elect to further extend the SPAC Termination Date, up to six times, each by an additional month, for an aggregate of six additional months beyond November 2, 2023, until up to May 2, 2024, for a deposit, for each monthly extension, of the lesser of (a) $100,000 and (b) $0.025 for each public share not redeemed as of August 2, 2023; and (ii) provide for the right of a holder of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to convert into such shares into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time before or concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the business combination at the election of the holder.

168

Table of Contents

On June 26, 2023, SPAC held the Extension Meeting, at which SPAC Shareholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and the SPAC Class B Ordinary Share Amendment Proposal. In connection with the Extension Meeting, holders of 3,062,319 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their option to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $32,772,628.17 (approximately $10.70 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share) was released from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $90,299,208.49 remained in the Trust Account. Following the redemption, 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares remained issued and outstanding.

Fair Market Value of Target Business

The target business or businesses that SPAC acquires must collectively have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions held in trust and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for initial business combination. SPAC Board determined that this test was met in connection with the proposed Business Combination as described in the subsection entitled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Satisfaction of 80% Test.”

Shareholder Approval of the Business Combination

Pursuant to SPAC MAA, SPAC is required to provide holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares with an opportunity to have their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed for cash upon the consummation of SPAC’s initial business combination, either in conjunction with a shareholder vote or tender offer. Due to the structure of the Business Combination, SPAC is providing this opportunity in conjunction with a shareholder vote. Accordingly, in connection with the Business Combination, the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may seek to have their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed for cash in accordance with the procedures set forth in the subsection entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of SPAC Shareholders — Redemption Rights.”

Prior to SPAC IPO, SPAC entered into an agreement with its shareholders holding the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, pursuant to which each agreed to vote any ordinary shares owned by them in favor of an initial business combination.

Redemption of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and Liquidation If No Initial Business Combination

SPAC MAA provide that SPAC shall complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date. If SPAC is unable to complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date, it will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, redeem the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then-issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of SPAC’s remaining shareholders and SPAC Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to SPAC Warrants, which will expire worthless if SPAC fails to complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date.

The SPAC Initial Shareholders have entered into a letter agreement with SPAC, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any SPAC Class B Ordinary Share held by them if SPAC fails to complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date. However, if the SPAC Initial Shareholders acquire SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in or after the SPAC IPO, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if SPAC fails to complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date. They also agreed that they will not propose any amendment to SPAC’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as it may be amended from time to time) (A) to modify the substance or timing of SPAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if SPAC does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the SPAC IPO (or such later period approved by

169

Table of Contents

SPAC Shareholders) or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless SPAC provides its shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares with the opportunity to redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to SPAC to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. However, SPAC may not redeem its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. If this optional redemption right is exercised with respect to an excessive number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares such that SPAC cannot satisfy the net tangible assets requirement, SPAC would not proceed with the amendment or the related redemption of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares at such time.

SPAC expects that all costs and expenses associated with implementing its plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from cash held outside the Trust Account, although SPAC cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose. However, if those funds are not sufficient to cover the costs and expenses associated with implementing its plan of dissolution, to the extent that there is any interest accrued in the Trust Account not required to pay income taxes on interest income earned on the Trust Account balance, SPAC may request the trustee to release to it an additional amount of up to $100,000 of such accrued interest to pay those costs and expenses.

If SPAC were to expend all of the net proceeds of the SPAC IPO and the sale of the SPAC Private Placement Warrants, other than the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account, and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the Trust Account, the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares upon its dissolution would be approximately $10.30. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to the claims of SPAC’s creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of its shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. SPAC cannot assure you that the actual per-share redemption amount received by shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will not be substantially less than $10.30. While SPAC intends to pay such amounts, if any, it cannot assure you that it will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.

Although SPAC will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses and other entities with which it does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary duties or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against SPAC’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, SPAC’s management will consider whether competitive alternatives are reasonably available to it and will only enter into an agreement with such third party if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be in the best interests of SPAC under the circumstances. Examples of possible instances where SPAC may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third-party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. Marcum Asia CPAs LLP, SPAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the SPAC IPO, and the underwriters of the SPAC IPO did not execute agreements with it waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with SPAC and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to SPAC if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to SPAC, or a prospective target business with which SPAC have entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination Agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and (ii) the actual amount per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under its indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, SPAC has not asked its Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has SPAC independently verified

170

Table of Contents

whether its Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and SPAC believes that its Sponsor’s only assets are securities of SPAC. Therefore, SPAC cannot assure you that its Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for the initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share. In such event, SPAC may not be able to complete its initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. None of SPAC’s officers or directors will indemnify SPAC for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below the lesser of (i) $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and (ii) the actual amount per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less taxes payable, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, SPAC’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While SPAC currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on its behalf against its Sponsor to enforce the indemnification obligations to SPAC, it is possible that SPAC’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance if, for example, the cost of such legal action is deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or if the independent directors determine that a favorable outcome is not likely. Accordingly, SPAC cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be less than $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share.

SPAC will seek to reduce the possibility that its Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which SPAC does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Sponsor will also not be liable as to any claims under SPAC’s indemnity of the underwriters of the SPAC IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. SPAC will have access to cash held outside the Trust Account to pay any such potential claims (including costs and expenses incurred in connection with its liquidation, currently estimated to be no more than approximately $100,000). In the event that SPAC liquidates and it is subsequently determined that the reserve for claims and liabilities is insufficient, shareholders who received funds from its Trust Account could be liable for claims made by creditors.

If SPAC s files a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary winding-up petition or insolvency petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in its bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of its shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, SPAC cannot assure you it will be able to return $10.30 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share to its shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. Additionally, if SPAC files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy or insolvency court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by SPAC’s shareholders. Furthermore, SPAC Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to SPAC’s creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing itself and SPAC to claims of punitive damages, by paying shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. SPAC cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against it for these reasons.

Shareholders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only (i) in the event of the redemption of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if SPAC does not complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date, (ii) in connection with a shareholder vote to amend SPAC MAA (a) to modify the substance or timing of SPAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares if SPAC does not complete its initial business combination by the SPAC Termination Date or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity or (iii) if they redeem their respective shares for cash upon the completion of SPAC’s initial business combination. In no other circumstances will a shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account. In the event SPAC seeks shareholder approval in connection with its initial business combination, a shareholder’s voting in connection with the business combination alone will not result

171

Table of Contents

in a shareholder’s redeeming its shares to SPAC for an applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. Such shareholder must have also exercised its redemption rights described above. These provisions of SPAC MAA may be amended with a shareholder vote.

SPAC MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of SPAC’s ﬁnancial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the ﬁnancial statements of SPAC and the notes related thereto which are included elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. SPAC’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

SPAC is a blank check exempted company incorporated on April 7, 2021 under the laws of the Cayman Islands for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more target businesses. SPAC is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, it is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

Results of Operations

SPAC has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. SPAC’s only activities from April 7, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2023 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the SPAC IPO, described below, and identifying a target company for a business combination. SPAC does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its business combination. SPAC generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account. SPAC incurs expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

On July 26, 2023, SPAC held an extraordinary general meeting at which the shareholders of SPAC approved the proposal to amend SPAC’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (i) extend the SPAC Termination Date, from August 2, 2023 (the date which is 15 months from the closing date of the SPAC IPO) to November 2, 2023 for a deposit (the “First-Phase Extension Contribution”) of the lesser of (a) $300,000 and (b) $0.075 for each SPAC Public Share not redeemed as of August 2, 2023 and to allow SPAC, without the need for any further approval of SPAC’s shareholders, by resolutions of the SPAC Board, to elect to further extend the SPAC Termination Date, up to six times, each by an additional month, for an aggregate of six additional months beyond November 2, 2023, until up to May 2, 2024, for a deposit (each such monthly deposit, the “Second-Phase Extension Contribution” and each of the First-Phase Extension Contribution and the Second-Phase Extension Contribution, an “Extension Contribution”) of the lesser of (a) $100,000 and (b) $0.025 for each public share not redeemed as of August 2, 2023; and (ii) provide for the right of a holder of SPAC’s SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time before or concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the business combination at the election of the holder.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, SPAC had a net loss of $134,911, which consists of operating costs of $1,400,917, partially offset by interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $1,266,006.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, SPAC had a net income of $1,694,418, which consists of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $3,910,621, partially offset by operating costs of $2,216,203.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, SPAC had a net income of $294,185, which consists of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $539,395, partially offset by operating costs of $245,210.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, SPAC had a net income of $212,918, which consists of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $654,732, partially offset by operating costs of $441,814.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On May 2, 2022, SPAC consummated the SPAC IPO of 11,500,000 SPAC Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 1,500,000 SPAC Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per SPAC Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the SPAC IPO, SPAC consummated the sale of an aggregate of 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in Private Placements to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000.

176

Table of Contents

Following the SPAC IPO and the private placement, a total of $118,450,000 ($10.30 per SPAC Unit) was placed in the Trust Account. SPAC incurred transaction costs of $7,208,947, consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting fees, and $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $883,947 of other offering costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $285,069. Net income of $1,694,418 was affected by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $3,910,621. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided by $1,875,526 of cash for operating activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $494,412. Net income of $212,918 was affected by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $654,732. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $52,598 of cash for operating activities.

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 3,062,319 Class A ordinary shares elected to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.70 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of $32,772,628, leaving approximately $90 million in the Trust Account.

TCO has agreed to loan 50% of the amount of each Extension Contribution to SPAC and the Sponsor will loan to SPAC as needed. Such loans will not bear interest and will be repayable by SPAC upon consummation of its initial business combination. The First-Phase Extension Contribution was deposited into the Trust Account in three equal instalments of $100,000 on August 9, 2023, September 11, 2023 and October 6, 2023, respectively, for the extension from August 2, 2023 to November 2, 2023. SPAC has determined to further extend to December 2, 2023, and has deposited the first Second-Phase Extension Contribution on November 2, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, SPAC had investments held in the Trust Account of $91,420,697 consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. SPAC may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. SPAC intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less deferred underwriting commissions and income taxes payable), to complete its business combination. To the extent that SPAC’s share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete its business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue its growth strategies.

As of September 30, 2023, SPAC had cash of $185,764. SPAC intends to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a business combination, and to pay for directors and officers liability insurance premiums.

In order to finance working capital deficit or to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of SPAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan SPAC funds as may be required. If SPAC completes its initial business combination, SPAC will repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into SPAC Private Placement Warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The terms of such warrants would be identical to those of the SPAC Private Placement Warrants.

On October 25, 2023, SPAC issued a non-interest bearing non-convertible unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, for a principal amount of up to $350,000 (the “October 2023 Note”). SPAC may draw down up to $150,000 under the October 2023 Note to pay the Extension Contribution and up to $200,000 for general corporate purposes. The entire unpaid principal balance of the October 2023 Note shall be due and payable on the effective date of an initial business combination, unless accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the October 2023 Note). As of the date of this Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, no amount was outstanding under the October 2023 Note.

Prior to the completion of the SPAC IPO, SPAC lacked the liquidity it needed to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of the financial statements. SPAC has since completed SPAC IPO at which time capital in excess of the funds deposited in the Trust Account and/or

177

Table of Contents

used to fund offering expenses was released to SPAC for general working capital purposes. Accordingly, SPAC’s management has since reevaluated SPAC liquidity and financial condition and determined that sufficient capital exists to sustain operations one year from the date these financial statements are issued and therefore substantial doubt has been alleviated. Based on above, SPAC does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if SPAC’s estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence, negotiating and consummating a business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, SPAC may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to its initial business combination. Moreover, SPAC may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its business combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares upon completion of its business combination, in which case it may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination.

In addition, in connection with SPAC’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” SPAC has until the SPAC Termination Date to consummate the initial business combination. SPAC intends to complete the initial business combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that it will be able to consummate any business combination by SPAC Termination Date. SPAC’s management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the SPAC’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should SPAC be required to liquidate after May 2, 2024.

The Company’s Growth Strategy

Achieving the highest functional safety level in ISO 26262 standard (ISO 26262 ASIL D) in self- driving systems requires ‘intelligent’ redundancy of critical components. Sensor packages play a key role in self-driving systems as they provide the necessary insight into the vehicle’s surroundings, crucial for accurate driving decisions. Intelligent redundancy goes beyond adding more of the same type of sensors to handle the failure of individual sensor. The intelligent self-driving system integrates multiple types of complimentary sensors so that if one type of sensors

181

Table of Contents

faces challenges in certain conditions, others can step in effectively, ensuring reliable driving decisions. For example, in a low visibility scenario, a LiDAR system can better detect the surroundings than a camera system, and the LiDAR system may take a more active role in an urban driving environment, where it can process the complex surroundings more accurately than a camera system.

Today, cameras and radar are both common in ADAS systems and self-driving vehicles. Both have advantages in ADAS and autonomous driving applications and are relatively mature technologies and can be manufactured at a competitive pricing point to be equipped in vehicles of different price ranges. The Company believe that a mature Level 3 to Level 5 self-driving system will require LiDAR system in addition to camera and radar because camera systems are vulnerable to manipulations and radar systems have very limited range. However, the high cost of LiDAR has slowed down the integration of LiDAR to be adopted in ADAS systems and autonomous driving vehicles.

The Company’s growth strategy centers on IC design, optical components, and the delivery of solid-state laser-based sources for the development of LiDAR and ADB solutions that can be mass produced and equipped at a competitive price point. Leveraging the abundant resources of Taiwan’s semiconductor ecosystem, the Company aims to achieve an optimal balance of durability, convenience, efficiency and cost-effectiveness, which will allow the Company to excel in the dynamic landscape of the EV automotive industry.

Frequency Modulated Continued Wave (FMCW) Driver IC. FMCW Driver IC is a specialized integrated circuit designed to generate and modulate microwave signals for use in LiDAR system. This FMCW system operates by continuously transmitting a signal with a varying frequency, called the chirp signal. The chirp signal consists of a continuous wave with a linearly increasing or decreasing frequency over time. When the chirp signal interacts with objects in the environment, it gets reflected back to the radar receiver. By analyzing the time delay between the transmitted and received signals and the frequency shift (Doppler effect), FMCW LiDAR systems can determine the range, speed, and movement of objects. Therefore, a FMCW Driver IC is a crucial component in FMCW LiDAR systems, providing the capability to generate, modulate, and amplify microwave signals for applications that require accurate distance measurement, object detection, and speed determination.

Optical Phased Array (OPA) Chip. OPA chip is a semiconductor-based device designed to manipulate and control laser beams or light waves with high precision.

The Development Process in the Automotive Electronics/LiDAR Industry

In general, the journey of creating a car-grade electronic components follows a series of steps, from the initial concept to mass production, and eventually to phasing out. This process typically includes the following stages:

1. Planning and Roadmap: During this phase, Tier-2 suppliers work together with Tier-1 and OEM partners to create a roadmap for development and testing of the products. They collaborate and plan the development of the product, which usually takes more than a year.

2. Creating Prototype Samples and Certification: After the planning stage, Tier-2 suppliers work on creating prototypes. The prototypes need to meet specific standards and regulations required for automotive use, which usually takes over a year. After the completion of the prototype, the Tier-2 supplier will submit the prototype to Tier-1 suppliers for further testing and validation. The testing and validation usually takes one year. As for semiconductor chips plus packaged sub-modules, the design cycle and reliability verification may carry on for continuous period of 5 years, as the whole supply chain and finished goods have to be qualified by various reliability and systematic standards.

3. Moving to Mass Production: Once the prototype samples are validated, Tier-2 suppliers begin a test production of the products. The Tier-1 supplier then tests and validates these test production components, ensuring they meet the necessary quality criteria. Once the test production components are approved, the Tier 2 suppliers will work with Tier 1 suppliers and car manufactures to source the production and the shipping logistics for the products. Once the production schedule and logistics are finalized, the Tier-2 supplier starts to mass produce of their products and supply them to Tier 1 suppliers, which will in turn integrate such components in its products. The OEM begins to use these components in their vehicles. The finalization of mass production logistics will also typically take more than a year to complete.

4. Maintaining Supply: After successful mass production, the components are supplied consistently for around 10-15 years before eventually being phased out or replaced by newer or upgraded modules. Tier 2 suppliers will typically remain as the suppliers for the components for the whole life-cycles of the products, and thus, enjoy a consistent stream of orders.

Currently, the Company’s development of LiDAR and ADB solutions is at Stage 2. The Company has provided the solid-state LiDAR prototype samples to Foxconn for integration in its MIH platform. The Company has also provided its LiDAR prototype and ADB systems to ZF Group and Pegatron for testing and validation. The company is currently customizing its prototype based on the feedbacks of its Tier-1 suppliers customers. The Company will work on further testing and validation and provide the next generation prototypes with semiconductor chips (OPA/VCSEL/FMCW/ASIC) to Tier-1 suppliers for their advanced research projects. Thereafter, the Company expects to move to mass production. The Company expects that its products will be mass produced within the next two to three years based on the current progress of development and feedbacks from the Tier-1 suppliers. However, the Company may experience delay and/or setbacks in its development, and the Tier-1 suppliers may not select the Company as a supplier, which would have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation.

Various Development Trends and Competitive Landscape of Products

Technical Differentiation

LiDAR Total Solution. Currently, the LiDAR system in the market typically employs mechanical rotation technology to achieve 360-degree environmental scanning. This mechanical system uses a rotating mirror to direct laser light, which is then collected by a detector to achieve environmental awareness. However, mechanical rotation systems are large in size and require manufacturing processes, resulting in low production yields and high manufacturing costs. Additionally, for effective deployment, of the mechanical LiDAR devices will need to be installed on the vehicle roof, which not only creates visual blind spots but also conflicts with the streamlined design of automobiles. Another LiDAR technology utilizes Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), which involve the direct fabrication of movable micro-mirrors on silicon chips to reflect laser light. This approach enables the creation of micro-scale structures for rapid high-resolution scanning. However, the structural design of movable micro-mirrors is susceptible to environmental influence such as heat and mechanical fatigue, which reduce its reliability. Therefore, the industry has been pursuing fully solid-state scanning methods as a better technology solution.

One of these solid-state scanning methods is the flash LiDAR system. This system emits a single laser pulse in one direction and relies on a large-area photosensitive array to receive the reflected light. However, the instantaneous emittance of laser covering of a wide area and the large-area reception sensors lead to significant energy consumption and a limited detection range, which limits the application of this method in automotives. Furthermore, Optical Phased Array (OPA) LiDAR system is another promising solid state scanning method for automotive applications. OPA LiDAR system operates similarly to phased-array radar by adjusting the refractive index of each emitting array unit to change the laser’s emission angle. Compared to the previously mentioned mechanical scanning technologies, optical phased array technology offers advantages such as high scanning speed, high precision, a fully solid-state structure, and excellent controllability, making it highly valuable for autonomous vehicle environment perception. OPA technology can be achieved through various methods, including using thermoelectric control combined with CMOS processes to integrate light sources, scanning elements, and sensors on a single chip. Another approach involves Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) technology. However, challenges such as the poor thermal stability of thermoelectric materials, slow liquid crystal modulation speeds, high processing complexity, and poor operability in harsh environments have hindered the commercialization of OPA technology in automotives.

The Company’s LiDAR solution differs from traditional OPA designs as described above. The Company prepares a compact OPA chip with a reflective multi-layer and bipolar electronic control structure to enhance both the field-of view (FOV) and resolution in the LiDAR system. The Company’s LiDAR system integrates a VCSEL laser source, an APD light sensor, a trans-impedance amplifier (TIA), and a programmable chip (FPGA or ASIC) into a compact solid-state LiDAR. This OPA chip can generate a specific phase or a continuous sweep between 0 and 360° at estimation rate of 1GHz to adjust independently the amplitude. The chip-surface features the 2200 individually addressable nano-resonators in a 6 × 4 mm2 area with no micromechanical elements or liquid crystals. A key feature of this design is to apply the reflective multi-layer and bipolar (NPN) electronic control structure in each nano-resonator. In the Company’s OPA system, the nano-resonators are used to adjust the scanning wide FOV and high angle resolution. In designing OPAs, there are several design tradeoffs and challenges to balance various requirements in automotive applications, such as cost of materials, size of the LiDAR, scanning resolutions and detection range. The Company’s design aims to achieve balance for mass production, but also retains flexibility to be upgraded for high end vehicle models.

ADB Total Solution. ADB, or Adaptive Driving Beam, is designed to ensure that the oncoming or preceding vehicles are not dazzled by the light. The lighting system must generate multiple independently switchable light patterns to significantly improve the length and width of nighttime illumination. ADB illuminates a distance greater than 150 meters, providing a clearer vision of the surroundings for vehicles traveling at high speeds. It offers a larger nighttime field of vision for navigating sharp bends or obstacles outside the road, while also automatically avoiding glare for other vehicles, thus greatly reducing the occurrence of nighttime accidents. The ADB system will need to be able to not only determine the position and distance of oncoming vehicles, but adjust the light projection area to prevent headlight glare and traffic accidents. The key hardware technologies lie in the precise manufacturing of the light source module. ADB headlight technology primarily includes mechanical shutters, LED matrix beams, Digital Micromirror Devices (DMD), LCD, micro Adaptive Front-Lighting System (μAFS), and laser scanning. However, due to the requirements of complex driving environment, there is still significant room for improvement in terms of lighting pixel performance and brightness capabilities.

185

Table of Contents

To improve on performance and brightness, the Company’s ADB module — the DMD-Hybrid system — includes the following components: high contrast fluorescent chips, color filter, and WLO components. The Company’s DMD-Hybrid system utilizes white phosphor-based technology and high-resolution DMD in conjunction with automotive sensors to meet the requirements for adaptive dynamic adjustment of the lighting area. This enables the headlight to have ADB functionality (controlling illumination for oncoming vehicles, pedestrians, and road signs) as well as projection capabilities (road markings and lane assistance). The Company’s ADB module complies with automotive lighting regulations and can withstand high temperatures and humid environments, demonstrating high reliability. The developed ADB module meets the ECE European headlight regulations and the requirements of ADB testing according to the standards of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).

Technical Approach

Currently, most LiDAR companies in the market employ either the first-generation mechanically rotating LiDAR or the second-generation MEMS mirror scanning LiDAR. However, both of these generations involve moving mechanical components, leading to concerns regarding operation and reliability. Therefore, the pursuit in the industry is towards a fully solid-state scanning approach. The Company has focused on developing commercially viable solutions for solid-state LiDAR and laser projection-based ADB headlights by using emitter components like OPA/VCSEL/FMCW/ASIC. The Company’s efforts have been recognized in that the Company’s R&D partner, the NCHU team, won two Future Tech Awards in 2021 and Taiwan government grants in 2021 and 2022. The Company’s LiDAR solution includes the following components:

1. ASIC (This chip processes the signal coming from the detectors and controls the system functions.): Elevating the optical budget of the system and optimizing detection capabilities within a specified optical budget.

2. FMCW: Can determine the range, speed, and movement of objects.

3. OPA: Incorporating a reflective structure with semiconductor processes, offering cost advantages.

4. Single crystal phosphor plate: With a higher thermal conductivity coefficient, these plates outperform standard commercial fluorescence plates by over two times.

5. VCSEL: Enhancing light emission energy and addressing heat dissipation concerns.

6. Wafer optical component: Distributing light output to enhance overall optical system efficiency.

In terms of the infringement disputes of a patent, the civil division of the Intellectual Property and Commercial Court (“IP Court”) hears civil actions relating to patent infringement. If the defendant of an infringement action challenges the validity of the disputed patent as a defense, the civil division will deal with the infringement and validity issues simultaneously. However, any person who intends to invalidate the disputed patent in all aspects must file revocation proceedings (invalidation action) with the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office (“TIPO”). Decisions of the TIPO in an invalidation action can be appealed to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and subsequently to the IP Court by way of filing an administrative lawsuit.

The Copyright Law provides that original copyrightable works shall enjoy exclusive rights automatically upon their completion, with no form of registration required. The competent authority for the application and registration of trademarks is the TIPO under the Ministry of Economic Affairs. A copyrighted work is protected throughout the author’s lifetime and 50 years after.

As a copyright holder, when enforcing a copyright, bears the burden of proving the copyright ownership (and sometimes even the creation time of the copyright, if such issue is being raised), it is recommended to preserve relevant evidence by having it notarized by a notary public. For important copyrighted work, it is recommendable to obtain a copyright certificate issued by a copyright owners’ organization so as to serve as prima facie evidence of the completion and ownership of the copyright. However, it is important to note that such private organizations do not and cannot conduct any substantive examination of the copyrightability of a work. Therefore, when a work’s copyrightable is being challenged, only a court will have a final say over such dispute on a case-by-case basis.

Company Overview

With strategically positioned offices at Central Taiwan Science Park and Hsin Chu Science Park campuses, the Company actively fosters collaboration with semiconductor experts and develop technologies leveraging the robust semiconductor supply chain in Taiwan. The Company, as a Tier-2 supplier, offers a holistic and complete solution for OEMs and Tier-1 partners engaged in the development and marketing of autonomous vehicles for the passenger car market and other pertinent sectors, such as robotaxi, drones, shuttles, and commercial trucks. Drawing upon breakthroughs in core components such as OPA/VCSEL/FMCW/ASIC, the Company develops distinctive LiDAR and ADB solutions, which have, through TCO’s collaboration with National Chung Hsing University (NCHU)’s collaboration platform, led to successful partnerships with two renowned leading ODM/OEM and Tier-1 partners, namely Foxconn and Pegatron. Moreover, the Company believes that its innovative solutions can be extended to other industries that may benefit from higher level of automation, such as drones, security, and landscape mapping.

The Company has developed a research partnership with a team at NCHU led by Professor Chun-Nien Liu since 2015. With the support of the NCHU team, the Company developed its distinctive LiDAR and ADB solutions. Due to the strength of its products, the Company entered into an agreement with NCHU and Professor Chun-Nien Liu on November 4, 2022 to provide pivotal chips and total solutions for high-performance solid-state LiDAR and ADB smart vehicle lighting systems for the Foxconn’s Mobility In Harmony Open Electric Vehicle (MIH) Platform. The Company therefore is connected to the emerging electric vehicle markets via Foxconn’s MIH Platform.

Foxconn’s MIH Platform aims to become a pioneering ecosystem in integrating LiDAR for Level 3 autonomous driving with the ultimate goal of commercializing its electric vehicles (EVs) globally. Thus, TCO’s close collaboration through the MIH Platform with Foxconn and its close partner, ZF Group, will position it at the front line of the development of EVs.

The Company also plans to leverage Taiwan’s mature semiconductor vertical supply chain to facilitate production of the chipsets used in TCO’s LiDAR and ADB productions. The Company plans to utilize the strong manufacturing capability of Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturers. The finished products will be packaged and assembled inhouse at TCO into its LiDAR and ADB products. This process aims to create a vertical production flow, thus making low-cost, high-performance solid-state LiDAR and ADB headlight a tangible commercial prospect.

Table of Contents

The Company envisions a future where the integration of Taiwan’s mature semiconductor vertical supply chain becomes a global trend in the electric vehicle market. This integration, fostered through TCO’s collaboration with partner customers, paves the way for low-cost, high-performance solid-state LiDAR to emerge as a tangible and compelling commercial component for future automotives. By continuing to drive innovation, embracing rigorous industry standards, and nurturing strong partnerships, the Company is committed to pioneering advancements in autonomous driving technology and contributing to the transformation of the automotive landscape.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

The Company believes its performance depends on several factors that present signiﬁcant opportunities for it but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the “Risk Factors” section of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

Market Adoption

The Company believes that widespread adoption of ADAS for autonomous driving is approaching and that it is well-positioned in both passenger cars and non-passenger vehicle markets to take advantage of this opportunity. Many major brands offer cars with ADAS Suites (e.g. Ford’s Co-Pilot 360, Toyota Safety Sense and BMW Active Driving Assistant) with L0-L2 features. As at June 30, 2022, sales of cars with Level 2 (L2) autonomous driving represented 46.5% of total car sales in the U.S and sales of cars with ADAS systems with L1 to L2 autonomous driving level represented approximately 70% of total car sales in the U.S. as at the same date1.

As the demand shifted toward higher levels of autonomous driving, the Company expects that this demand will drive an increase in the adoption of LiDAR technology in ADAS and autonomous driving systems. Accordingly, the Company expects the rate of actual adoption and commercialization of LiDAR based solution by automotive OEMs and their suppliers, or the lack thereof, to impact its results of operations, including revenue and gross margins for the foreseeable future.

Continued Investment and Innovation

The Company focus on penetrating the LiDAR and ADB markets via key semiconductor chips and solution for solid-state LiDAR, which require heavy investment in R&D of IC, optical components, and solid-state laser-based sources for LiDAR and ADB solutions. The Company believes that its financial performance is significantly dependent on its ability to commercialize the R&D results and solidify its position in relevant market segments. This in turn will depend on the company’s future R&D investments and its ability to attract and retain highly qualified and experienced R&D personnels and partners. These are necessary to continue the work required to bring the Company’s LiDAR and ADB solutions to full commercialization and introduce innovative new solutions to existing and new customers. Failure to do this could adversely affect the Company’s market position and its revenue.

Competition and Margin

The Company’s results of operations will also depend on its ability to integrate and leverage on Taiwan mature semiconductor vertical supply chain while scaling up its production capacity and keeping its fixed costs low. The Company believe it can achieve this by focusing on high value and margin chip design, outsource the low margin and high capital costs chip manufacturing, packaging and module assembly. The Company’s ability to leverage this model will depend primarily on its revenues and ability to increase sales once a product is commercialized. Specifically,

the Company believes under the collaboration model with strategic partners, such as Foxconn’s MIH and Pegatron, the Company is able to shorten the pre-sales and qualification process compared to traditional automotive industry practice.

By providing solutions comprised primarily of components that it has developed based on its technology, the Company thereby eliminates expenses associated with system completion which would not have involved or leveraged its technology. In addition, a series of LiDAR and ADB manufactured with the Company’s solutions will be conducted by Tier-1 manufacturers, meaning that the Company neither has the need to undertake the significant capital expenditures associated with developing a series manufacturing capability nor the expense of operating any such manufacturing capability.

Technological Advancements

Rapid advancements in ADAS and LiDAR technology can impact the Company’s ability to develop and offer cutting-edge products at competitive cost that meet market demands. We have witnessed a growing interest in solid-state LiDAR technology, the Company ability to solidify and commercialize key semiconductor components and solution for solid-state LiDAR and ADB headlights that meet the market demand is crucial for the Company results of operations, including revenue and gross margins for the foreseeable future.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Operations and Financial Performance

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected businesses around the world. In order to curb the spread of COVID-19, many countries have imposed restrictions on travel and enforced store closures, encouraging people to stay at home and avoid gathering in public places.

The Company investment in Optonomous Inc. was severely impacted, it was unable to fulfill its intended function for almost two years and required high expenses to maintain Optonomous Inc. As a result, the Company divested all shares in Optonomous Inc. in June 2022.

The Company participated as the operating team of the Operate and Transfer project of Houli Racetrack and Flower Dance Hall in Taichung City. COVID-19 had a severe impact on the operation of the project. The team was unable to open and operate the facility in compliance with government pandemic prevention policies. The Company foresee that it will take a long time to recover and need continuous financial commitment if it were persisted in its operations. The Company decided to focus on its core business and successfully completing its divestment in December 2022.

In addition, the Company’s total revenue in the year ended in year ended December 31, 2022 decreased as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 due to the wide spread of COVID-19 in Taiwan and the PRC. The Company’s facilities were working on reduced staff strength in 2022 following the quarantine order imposed by the government. There was also reduction in demands to the Company’s products in the PRC, because the Company’s customers located in the PRC were also impacted by wide spread COVID-19 and the quarantine order and other administrative measures imposed by the Chinese government.

Although it is uncertain to assess the total impact of COVID-19 on the financial condition, results of operation and business of the Company, the Company does not expect that COVID-19 will have a material and adverse impact on the Company’s operation in 2023.

Our staff salaries consists of our obligations to pay out staff under the employment agreements. Our lease obligations consist of the commitments under the rental agreements for our factory and office premises. Our contractual obligations primarily consist of minimum commitments for marketing activities.

In addition, as part of our business strategy, we plan to continue to invest in our research and development activities, particular in the development of our LiDAR and ADB products. These new developments and expansions may generate long-term cash requirements. Our research and development activities, including pursuant of equipment, raw materials, IT software and expansion of our R&D term. We intend to fund our future material cash requirements with net proceeds from the Proposed Transactions, debt borrowings from Taiwan banks, equity contributions from our shareholders and payments received from our customers.

We believe that our cash on hand following the consummation of the Business Combination, including the current available cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet and the funds contained in Chenghe’s Trust Account (assuming the Interim Redemption Scenario) will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement and sufficient to fund our operations. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to decrease our level of investment in research and development or delay, scale back or abandon all or part of our growth strategy, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects.

The Company recorded net interest income of NTD578,000 (U.S.$18,821) for the year ended December 31, 2022 and recorded net interest expense of NTD1,777,000 (U.S.$57,864) for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company recorded net interest income of NTD8,382,000 (U.S.$272,940) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and net interest expense of NTD1,265,000 (U.S.$41,192) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company enjoyed net interest income for 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2023 because its short- and long-term borrowings are denominated in NTD, which charge a lower interest rate compared to the interest earned on

the Company’s deposits, which are primary denominated in U.S. Dollars and enjoy higher interest rate. The Company expects that as the U.S. lowers the Federal Fund Rate, the interest rate offered on the Company’s U.S. dollar deposits will decrease and the net interest income will decrease accordingly.

The effect of an immediate 10% change in interest rates on September 30, 2023 would not have a material adverse impact on our future operating results and cash flows as we expect our sales will increase going forward.

Cash Flows Generated from (Used in) Operating Activities

Cash flows generated from operating activities are typically re-invested to support the growth of the Company’s business. The Company invests in research and development, sales and marketing activities, general and administrative expenses, and working capital. The Company’s operating cash inflows include cash from sales of its products. These cash inflows are offset by the Company’s payments to suppliers for production materials and parts used in the Company’s manufacturing process, operating expenses, and interest payments on the Company’s financings.

During the nine months ending September 30, 2022, net cash generated from operating activities was NTD 90,181,000 (U.S.$2,936,535). During the nine months ending September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities increased to NTD18,077,000 (U.S.$588,636). The decrease was mainly driven by lower sales revenue, increase in inventories and right of use assets.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was NTD 20,959,000 (U.S.$682,481). During the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash generated from operating activities was NTD 36,490,000 (U.S.$1,188,212). The increase was mainly attributable to increase in net income in 2022, primarily due to favorable exchange rate gains, income to disposition of discontinued business ad increase in account receivables.

Cash Flows Generated from (Used in) Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities primarily relate to purchase of property and equipment and proceeds from disposal of property and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities was NTD22,941,000 (U.S.$747,021) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and net cash used in investing activities was NTD 66,828,000 (U.S.$2,176,099) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly attributed to reduced investment in new property and equipment due to lower sales and adjustment in research and development schedules.

Net cash used in investing activities was NTD29,103,000 (U.S.$947,672) for the year ended December 31, 2022 and net cash used in investing activities was NTD 19,416,000 (U.S.$632,237) for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributed to increased investment in new property and equipment for research and development activities.

Disposal of Optonomous Inc.

Optonomous Inc., located in Los Angeles, California, USA, was acquired in May of 2019 due to the Company’s plan to expand into the U.S. market. Optonomous Inc. specializes in the development of lighting technologies for various applications such as projection, entertainment, and automotive, using laser-excited glass and crystal phosphors. It also develops infrared laser diodes for autonomous driving applications.

However, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company was not able to expand into the U.S. market through Optonomous Inc. Considering the operating costs of Optonomous, Inc., the board of directors discussed the matter and decided to focus on the core business in Taiwan to avoid additional cost losses. As a result, it was decided to divest all shares in Optonomous Inc.

Disposal of Taiwan Leisure Sports Technology Inc.

The Company established Taiwan Leisure Sports Technology to operate the Operator Transfer (“OT”) project of the Houli Racetrack and Flower Dance Hall in Taichung City. The Company decided to pursue this business venture to diversify its revenue stream. However, shortly after its establishment, the OT project was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in compliance with government epidemic prevention policies, the racetrack and the flower dance hall was unable to open and operate. Although there was a brief period of opening, the tourism industry had been severely impacted by the pandemic, and it was difficult to recover the previous number of visitors in the short term.

After discussions within the local government in Taichung, it was determined that if the project were to continue operating, it would require further cash injection. After considering the level of capital injection needed to keep the facilities operational, the Company decided to divest its control interest in Taiwan Leisure Sports Technology. After contacting multiple potential buyers, the project was acquired by a non-related party. The Company completed the transaction agreement in July of the 2022 and received the full payment in December of the same year, successfully completing the divestment process.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, the Company did not have any relationships with unconsolidated organizations or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities, which were established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.

Research and Development Expenses

In the fiscal year 2021, the R&D expenditure of the Company amounted to approximately NTD40,902,000 (U.S.$1,331,879), accounting for 32.4% of the net revenue and 58.6% of total operating expenses. In the fiscal year 2022, the R&D expenditure of the Company amounted to approximately NTD26,845,000 (U.S.$874,145), accounting for 26.2% of the net revenue and 41.1% of total operating expenses. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2023, the R&D expenditure of the Company amounted to approximately NTD19,083,000 (U.S.$621,394) and NTD18,442,000 (U.S.$600,521), respectively, accounting for 23.8% and 79.6% of the net revenue of each respective period, and 38.9% and 41.3% of total operating expenses of each respective period. The future allocation of R&D expenditure will be based on the progress of new product and technology development. As the Company’s revenue continues to grow, the Company may gradually increase the R&D expenditure to accelerate the pace of research and development and support future R&D projects. In addition to acquiring R&D-related software and hardware equipment, the Company also continues to attract experienced and creative research and development talents to enhance its R&D capabilities and strengthen its competitive advantage.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company consolidated financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement/prospectus have been prepared using the significant measurement bases. We believe that the following estimates are those most critical to the judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Evaluation of inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. Costs are computed under the standard cost method, which approximates actual costs determined on the weighted-average basis. The Company records inventory write-downs as cost of revenue for excess or obsolete inventories based upon assumptions on current and future demand forecasts. If the inventory on hand is in excess of future demand forecast, the excess amounts are written off. The Company also reviews inventory to determine whether its carrying value exceeds the net amount realizable upon the ultimate sale of the inventory. This requires the determination of the estimated selling price of the inventory less the estimated cost to convert inventory on hand into a finished product. Once inventory is written-down, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis.

As of December 31, 2022, the carrying amount of inventories was NTD 36,768,000 (U.S.$1,197,264).

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our audited financial information. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Emerging Growth Company Status

As defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, the Company is as an emerging growth company (“EGC”). As such, the Company will be eligible for and intends to rely on certain exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act, including (a) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (b) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and (c) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements.

The Company will remain an EGC under the JOBS Act until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of the Company’s Common Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the second quarter of that fiscal year, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which it has total annual gross revenue of $1.07 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (iii) the date on which it has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period or (iv) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the IPO.

Foreign Private Issuer Status

The Company qualifies as a “foreign private issuer” as defined under SEC rules. Even after the Company no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, as long as the Company continues to qualify as a foreign private issuer under SEC rules, the Company is exempt from certain SEC rules that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

• the rules requiring domestic filers to issue financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP;

• the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

• the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time;

• the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing financial statements and other specified information, and current reports on Form 8-K upon the occurrence of specified significant events; and

• the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material nonpublic information under Regulation FD.

Notwithstanding these exemptions, the Company will file with the SEC, within four months after the end of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as the Company is no longer a foreign private issuer. The Company would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time as more than 50% of its outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority of its executive officers or directors are U.S. citizens or residents, (ii) more than 50% of its assets are located in the United States or (iii) its business is administered principally in the United States.

Both foreign private issuers and emerging growth companies also are exempt from certain more stringent executive compensation disclosure rules. Thus, even if the Company no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, but remains a foreign private issuer, the Company will continue to be exempt from the more stringent compensation disclosures required of companies that are neither an emerging growth company nor a foreign private issuer.

In addition, because the Company qualifies as a foreign private issuer under SEC rules, the Company is permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of Taiwan (the jurisdiction in which the Company is organized) in lieu of certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements that would otherwise be applicable to the Company.

If at any time the Company ceases to be a foreign private issuer, the Company will take all action necessary to comply with the SEC and Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The main types of risks are foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. While the Company may enter into hedging contracts from time to time, any change in the fair value of the contracts could be offset by changes in the underlying value of the transactions being hedged. Furthermore, the Company does not have foreign-exchange hedging contracts in place with respect to all currencies in which it does business.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. During financial year ended December 31 2022 and 2021, 90.2% and 96.4% of our revenue were generated in U.S. Dollars. For the same period, 73.3% and 72.5% of our expenses were denominated in NTD, the currency of Taiwan in which we conduct our operations. Our results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, 93.1% and 93.7% of our revenue were generated in U.S. Dollars, while 70.19% and 85.8% of our expenses were denominated in NTD.

The effect of a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business would have a material impact on our historical consolidated financial statements. To date, we have not engaged in any hedging strategies and does not enter into any hedging contracts for trading or speculative purposes, the Company will increase its expenses and purchase in U.S. Dollars and may in the future hedge selected significant transactions denominated in currencies other than the New Taiwan dollar to match with our expenses in NTD.

Interest Rates Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because its borrowings are based on both fixed and floating interest rates. The Company’s interest rate risk is mainly concentrated in the fluctuation of the benchmark interest rates arising from cash and cash equivalents- time deposits and repurchase agreements collateralized by bonds, other financial assets, short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings, bonds payable, financial liabilities designated at FVTPL and leasing liabilities. Among other things, (a) the Company’s short-term bank borrowings consist of collateralized loans obtained from Chuang Hwa Bank and First Commercial Bank, that mature on November 11, 2023 and April 6, 2023, respectively; and (b) the Company’s long-term bank borrowings consisted of a loan from Chuang Hwa Bank and a credit borrowing secured by the Credit Guarantee Fund for Small and Medium Enterprises, that mature on December 5, 2027 and June 29, 2026, respectively, with interest calculated at Taipei Interbank Offered Rate (TAIBOR) plus 1.90%.

Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company’s credit risk was mainly arising from bank deposits, trade receivables, other receivables, other financial assets, and refundable deposits. The Company limits its credit risk by reviewing its counterparties’ financial condition and payment practices to minimize collection risks on its accounts receivable.

Liquidity Risk

The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash deemed adequate to finance its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

SPAC

None of SPAC’s executive officers or directors has received any cash compensation for services rendered. SPAC pays the Sponsor $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services provided to SPAC. In addition, the Sponsor, SPAC’s executive officers, directors and advisory board members or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on SPAC’s behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. SPAC’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to these persons. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination will be made from funds held outside the Trust Account. Other than these payments and reimbursements, no compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid to the Sponsor, SPAC’s executive officers, directors and advisory board members, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to completion of SPAC’s initial business combination.

It is possible that some or all of SPAC’s executive officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements with the post-business combination company after SPAC’s initial business combination. Any such arrangements will be disclosed in the proxy solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, furnished to SPAC Shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination, to the extent they are known at such time.

The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements may influence SPAC’s management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business, but SPAC does not believe that such arrangements will be a determining factor in SPAC’s decision to proceed with any potential business combination.

For more information about the interests of the Sponsor and SPAC management in the Business Combination, see the subsection entitled “SPAC Shareholder Proposal No.1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination.”

Insurance and Indemnification

To the extent permitted under Cayman law, CayCo is empowered to indemnify its directors against any liability they incur by reason of their directorship. CayCo will obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance to insure such persons against certain liabilities. Insofar as indemnification of liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our board, executive officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Employment Agreements, Insurance and Indemnification

Each of the executive officers and directors in the table above are a party to a service agreement with TCO (“Service Agreement”). Each Service Agreement is substantially similar to the other Service Agreements. Under the Service Agreement, the executive officer or director, as the case may be, agrees to serve until terminated due to the person’s death or disability or by a unanimous decision of the Board. The Service Agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants, which include confidentiality and non-disclosure restrictions and non-competition restrictions that apply during the term and for certain periods following specified terminations of service.

The Company has neither procured any directors and officers insurance for any of its directors and supervisors, nor has it entered into any indemnification agreement with any of its directors and supervisors.

Company Employee Benefit Plan

In relation to an employee retirement pension, the Company operates the employee pension system as required by the Taiwan Labor Pension Act and the Employee Welfare Fund Act. Pension payments are withdrawn from each respective employee’s salary on a monthly basis and stored in each respective employees’ labor pension personal special pension account established by the Taiwan Labor Insurance Bureau. In addition, employees can voluntarily contribute to their retirement pensions by making voluntary pension payments.

Apart from the Company Employee Benefit Plan, the Company does not have any employee incentive plan and neither have any options been issued or remain outstanding.

Emerging Growth Company

TCO is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. TCO has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, TCO, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Indemnification and Insurance Obligations of CayCo following the Business Combination

The directors and officers of CayCo will be indemnified by CayCo and will be covered by directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination.

Foreign Private Issuer Status

After the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo will be a “foreign private issuer” under the securities laws of the United States and Listing Rules. Under the securities laws of the United States, “foreign private issuers” are subject to different disclosure requirements than U.S. registrants.

The Listing Rules include certain accommodations in the corporate governance requirements that allow foreign private issuers, such as CayCo, to follow home country corporate governance practices in lieu of the otherwise applicable corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq. The application of such exceptions requires that CayCo discloses any significant ways that its corporate governance practices differ from the Listing Rules that CayCo does not follow.

Insider Trading Policy

Upon closing of the Business Combination, CayCo intends to adopt an insider trading policy which will prohibit its executives, other employees and directors from: (i) trading in its securities while in possession of material undisclosed information about CayCo; and (ii) entering into certain derivative-based transactions that involve, directly or indirectly, securities of CayCo, during a restricted period.

Diversity

The CayCo Board has not adopted any policies that address the identification and nomination of women or other diverse candidates to the CayCo Board or to management of CayCo. The CayCo Board recognizes the importance and benefit of having a board of directors and senior management composed of highly talented and experienced individuals having regard to the need to foster and promote diversity among board members and senior management with respect to attributes such as gender, ethnicity and other factors. In support of this goal, the ESG and compensation committee intends to, when identifying candidates to nominate for election to the CayCo Board or appoint as senior management or in its review of senior management succession planning and talent management:

• consider individuals who are highly qualified, based on their talents, experience, functional expertise and personal skills, character and qualities having regard to CayCo’s current and future plans and objectives, as well as anticipated regulatory and market developments;

• consider criteria that promote diversity, including with regard to gender, ethnicity, and other considerations;

• consider the level of representation of women on its board of directors and in senior management positions, along with other markers of diversity, when making recommendations for nominees to the CayCo Board or for appointment as senior management and in general with regard to succession planning for the CayCo Board and senior management; and

• as required, engage qualified independent external advisors to assist the CayCo Board in conducting its search for candidates that meet the board of directors’ criteria regarding skills, experience and diversity.

At the present time, there are no women serving on the CayCo Board, and none of the individuals who are expected to be appointed to the CayCo Board at the Closing are women.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Upon completion of the Business Combination, based on the $380 million pro forma equity valuation of the Post-Closing Company upon consummation of the Transactions and assuming the Company Acquisition Percentage in connection with the TCO Restructuring reaching 100%, no redemptions and the exercise of all issued and outstanding SPAC Warrants, CayCo estimates that it will have a share capital comprised of 62,812,681 CayCo Ordinary Shares. All of the CayCo Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Merger will be freely transferable by persons other than by CayCo’s “affiliates” without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, subject to the restrictions detailed below. Sales of substantial amounts of CayCo Ordinary Shares in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the CayCo Ordinary Shares. Prior to the Business Combination, there has been no public market for CayCo Ordinary Shares. CayCo intends to apply for listing of the CayCo Ordinary Shares on the Stock Exchange in connection with the Business Combination.

Transfer Restrictions

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that at the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo, the Sponsor, certain Company Shareholders and certain Sponsor Key Holders will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with CayCo to be effective at Closing, the form of which is attached to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement as Annex E. Under the Lock-Up Agreement, the Sponsor, the Company Shareholders and the Sponsor Key Holders will agree, with some exclusions, from the Closing Date of the Business Combination until the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date, or (ii) subsequent to the Closing Date, the date on which (x) the closing trading price of the CayCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds US$12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-trading day period at least one-hundred and fifty (150) days after the Closing Date; or (y) the consummation of a bona fide liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization, tender offer, change of control or other similar transaction which results in all of the CayCo’s shareholders having the right to exchange their CayCo Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), with respect to (i) the Sponsor, the Sponsor Key Holders and their respective permitted transferees, the CayCo Ordinary Shares held by such person immediately following the Closing (excluding any PIPE Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares acquired in the public market); and (ii) the Company Shareholders and their respective permitted transferees, (A) the CayCo Ordinary Shares held by such person immediately following the Closing (excluding any PIPE Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares acquired in the public market); and (B) CayCo Ordinary Shares issued to directors and officers of CayCo upon settlement or exercise of restricted stock units, stock options or other equity awards outstanding as of immediately following the Closing (the “Lock-Up Shares”), they will not: (i) sale or assignment of, offer to sell, contract or agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to, any security; (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another Person, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise; or (iii) publicly announce of any intention to effect any transaction, including the filing of a registration statement, as specified in clause (i) or (ii) (the actions specified in clauses (i)-(iii), collectively, a “Transfer”) any Lock-Up Shares.

Regulation S

Regulation S under the Securities Act provides an exemption from registration requirements in the United States for offers and sales of securities that occur outside the United States. Rule 903 of Regulation S provides the conditions to the exemption for a sale by an issuer, a distributor, their respective affiliates or anyone acting on their behalf, while Rule 904 of Regulation S provides the conditions to the exemption for a resale by persons other than those covered by Rule 903. In each case, any sale must be completed in an offshore transaction, as that term is defined in Regulation S, and no directed selling efforts, as that term is defined in Regulation S, may be made in the United States.

Rule 144

Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

• the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

• the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

• the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

• at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As a result, the Sponsor, the Company Shareholders and the Sponsor Key Holders will be able to sell their Founder Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 without registration one year after the Closing of the Business Combination.

Chenghe anticipates that following the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of the Post-Closing Company’s securities for at least six months would, subject to the restrictions noted in the section below, be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of the affiliates of the Post-Closing Company at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) the Post-Closing Company is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and has filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as Chenghe was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares or warrants of the Post-Closing Company for at least six months but who are affiliates of the Post-Closing Company at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

• 1% of the total number of the CayCo Ordinary Shares then outstanding; or

• the average weekly reported trading volume of the CayCo Ordinary Shares during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by affiliates of the Post-Closing Company under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the Post-Closing Company.

Registration Rights

In connection with the SPAC IPO, Chenghe entered into a registration rights agreement with the Sponsor for the registration for resale under the Securities Act of the Founder Shares, SPAC Private Placement Warrants and warrants converted from Working Capital Loans (if any). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that Chenghe register such securities, at any time and from time to time after Chenghe consummates a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to Chenghe’ completion of its initial business combination. Chenghe agreed to bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statement.

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, CayCo, Merger Sub, Chenghe, the Sponsor and certain shareholders of TCO will enter into an investor rights agreement, to be effective as of the Closing. Pursuant to such investor rights agreement, among other things, CayCo agrees to file a registration statement covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities within thirty days of the Closing Date and use reasonable best efforts to

226

Table of Contents

cause such registration statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter but no later than the earlier of (a) the thirtieth calendar day following the filing date of such registration statement if the SEC notifies CayCo that it will “review” the registration statement, and (b) the tenth Business Day after the date CayCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. CayCo has also agreed to provide customary “piggyback” registration rights with respect to such registrable securities and, subject to certain circumstances, to file a resale shelf registration statement to register the resale under the Securities Act of such registrable securities.

The registration rights agreement also provides that CayCo will pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the securityholders against certain liabilities. The rights granted under the investor rights agreement supersede any prior registration, qualification or similar rights of the parties with respect to their CayCo securities or Chenghe securities.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Securities of Chenghe prior to the Business Combination

The following summary of the material terms of the securities of Chenghe prior to the Business Combination is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities and is subject to and qualified by references to the Chenghe Articles incorporated by reference as Annex G. You are urged to read the Chenghe Articles in their entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of Chenghe securities. In this section, “we,” “us,” “our” and “Company” refers to Chenghe.

General

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and our affairs are governed by Chenghe Articles, the Cayman Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to Chenghe Articles, we are authorized to issue 500,000,000 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares of a par value of $0.0001 each, and 50,000,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares of a par value of $0.0001 each, as well as 5,000,000 preference shares of a par value of $0.0001 each. The following description summarizes certain terms of our securities as set out more particularly in Chenghe Articles.

Because it is only a summary, it may not contain all the information that is important to you.

Units

Each SPAC Unit consists of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one SPAC Public Warrant. Each whole SPAC Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described below. Pursuant to the warrant agreement entered into in connection with the SPAC IPO, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder.

SPAC Units are listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol “CHEAU.” On June 20, 2022, we announced the holders of SPAC Units may elect to separately trade the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants included in the units. The SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants that are separated started to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbols “CHEA” and “CHEAW,” respectively. On September 21, 2023, Nasdaq suspended trading of the SPAC Public Warrants due to SPAC’s failure to maintain a minimum of $1,000,000 in aggregate market value of its outstanding SPAC Public Warrants, as set forth in Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5452(b)(C). Nasdaq delisted the SPAC Public Warrants and filed a notification of removal from listing on October 12, 2023. Chenghe has not made any application to list the SPAC Public Warrants on the OTC markets, and Chenghe is not aware of any plan of CayCo to apply for the listing of CayCo Warrant on any stock exchange after the Closing. For more information, please see “Risk Factors — SPAC Public Warrants have been delisted from Nasdaq.” Those SPAC Units not separated continue to trade on the Nasdaq. No fractional warrant was issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade.

Ordinary Shares

As of September 30, 2023, 8,437,681 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares were issued and outstanding.

Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders except as required by law. Unless specified in Chenghe Articles, or as required by applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Act or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of SPAC Ordinary Shares that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our shareholders. Approval of certain actions will require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of at least two-thirds of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company, and pursuant to Chenghe Articles; such actions include amending Chenghe Articles. Our board of directors is divided into three classes, each of which will generally serve for a term of three years with only one class of directors being appointed in each year. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the appointment of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the

228

Table of Contents

appointment of directors can appoint all of the directors. However, only holders of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares have the right to appoint directors prior to the completion of our initial business combination, meaning that holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares do not have the right to appoint any directors until after the completion of our initial business combination. Our shareholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Because Chenghe Articles authorize the issuance of up to 500,000,000 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, if we were to enter into a business combination, we may (depending on the terms of such a business combination) be required to increase the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares which we are authorized to issue at the same time as our shareholders vote on the business combination to the extent we seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination.

In accordance with Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, we are not required to hold an annual general meeting until one year after our first fiscal year end following our listing on Nasdaq. There is no requirement under the Cayman Companies Act for us to hold annual or general meetings or appoint directors. We do not plan to hold an annual general meeting to appoint new directors prior to the consummation of our initial business combination.

We will provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two (2) Business Days prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein. The per share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions that we pay to the underwriters of our initial public offering. Our Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. Unlike many special purpose acquisition companies that hold shareholder votes and conduct proxy solicitations in conjunction with their initial business combinations and provide for related redemptions of public shares for cash upon completion of such initial business combinations even when a vote is not required by law, if a shareholder vote is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to Chenghe Articles, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination. Chenghe Articles require these tender offer documents to contain substantially the same financial and other information about our initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules. If, however, a shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or we decide to obtain shareholder approval for business or other reasons, we will, like many special purpose acquisition companies, offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If we seek shareholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if we receive an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company. However, the participation of our Sponsor, officers, directors, advisors or their respective affiliates in privately negotiated transactions (as described in this prospectus), if any, could result in the approval of our initial business combination even if a majority of our Public Shareholders vote, or indicate their intention to vote, against such initial business combination. For purposes of seeking approval of an ordinary resolution, non-votes will have no effect on the approval of our initial business combination once a quorum is obtained. Chenghe Articles require that at least five days’ notice will be given of any general meeting.

If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, Chenghe Articles provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to the shares exceeding 20% of the shares sold in the SPAC IPO (the “excess shares”) without our prior consent. However, we would not be restricting our shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including excess shares) for or against our initial business combination. Our shareholders’ inability to redeem the excess shares will reduce their influence over our ability to complete our initial business combination, and such shareholders could suffer a material loss in their investment if they sell such excess shares on the open

229

market. Additionally, such shareholders will not receive redemption distributions with respect to the excess shares if we complete our initial business combination. And, as a result, such shareholders will continue to hold that number of shares exceeding 20% and, in order to dispose such shares would be required to sell their shares in open market transactions, potentially at a loss.

If we seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination, our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote their founder shares in favor of our initial business combination. Any public shares purchased subsequent to the SPAC IPO will not be voted in favor of the initial business combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their public shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or whether they were a Public Shareholder on the record date for the shareholder meeting held to approve the proposed transaction.

Pursuant to Chenghe Articles, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. Our Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination by the Extended Deadline. However, if our Sponsor or management team acquires public shares after the SPAC IPO, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such public shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period.

In the event of a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the company after a business combination, our shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having preference over the Ordinary Shares. Our shareholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the Ordinary Shares, except that we will provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares for cash at a per share price equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, upon the completion of our initial business combination, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein.

Founder Shares

The Founder Shares are designated as SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and, except as described below, are identical to the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares included in the SPAC Units sold in the SPAC IPO, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as Public Shareholders, except that (i) prior to our initial business combination, only holders of the Founder Shares have the right to vote on the appointment of directors and holders of a majority of our Founder Shares may remove a member of the board of directors for any reason, (ii) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, (iii) the Founder Shares are entitled to registration rights, (iv) our Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to (A) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, (B) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as it may be amended from time to time) (1) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of our initial public offering (or such later period as approved by our shareholders) or (2) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, (C) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares if we fail to complete our

230

Table of Contents

initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination within such time period and (D) vote any Founder Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after our initial public offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of our initial business combination, (v) the Founder Shares may be converted into a SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time, at the election of a holder of Founder Shares, before, concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the initial business combination, and (vi) only holders of Founder Shares will have the right to appoint directors prior to the completion of our initial business combination. For the avoidance of doubt, holders of Founder Shares will not vote any SPAC Ordinary Shares that they acquired in connection with any purchase made in compliance with Rule 14e-5 of the Exchange Act in favor of the Business Combination.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Founder Shares will automatically convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares at the Merger Effective Time on a one-for-one basis, and the Founder Shares will no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be canceled. In connection with the SPAC IPO, holders of the Founder Shares entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which, with certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with our Sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of our initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to our initial business combination, the closing price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, and (B) the date following the completion of our initial business combination on which we complete a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property. The Business Combination Agreement provides that concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, at the consummation of the Business Combination, CayCo, the Sponsor, certain Company Shareholders and the Sponsor Key Holders will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement to be effective at closing, pursuant to which, our Sponsor and the Sponsor Key Holders will agree to, among other things, to not Transfer the CayCo Ordinary Shares they hold immediately following the Closing (excluding any PIPE Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares acquired in the public market). See the section titled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Lock-Up Agreement.”

Preference Shares

Chenghe Articles authorize the issuance of 5,000,000 Chenghe Preference Shares and provide that Chenghe Preference Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our board of directors will be able to, without shareholder approval, issue Chenghe Preference Shares with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the Ordinary Shares and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue Chenghe Preference Shares without shareholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no Chenghe Preference Shares issued and outstanding at the date hereof. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of Chenghe Preference Shares, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.

Warrants — Public Warrants

Each whole SPAC Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering or 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at a given time by a warrant holder. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of our initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

We will not be obligated to deliver any SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a SPAC Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the SPAC Public Warrants then effective

231

Table of Contents

and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration or a valid exemption from registration is available, including in connection with a cashless exercise permitted as a result of a notice of redemption described below under “Redemption of warrants when the price per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $18.00.” No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue a SPAC Class A Ordinary Share upon exercise of a warrant unless the SPAC Class A Ordinary Share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a SPAC Public Warrant, the holder of such SPAC Public Warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such SPAC Public Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any SPAC Public Warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the SPAC Class A Ordinary Share underlying such unit.

We have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the SPAC Public Warrant. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within sixty (60) Business Days after the closing of our initial business combination and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the SPAC Public Warrant in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the SPAC Public Warrants is not effective by the sixtieth (60th) Business Day after the closing of our initial business combination, SPAC Public Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if our SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares are at the time of any exercise of a SPAC Public Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of SPAC Public Warrant who exercise their SPAC Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event we do not so elect, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the SPAC Public Warrants for that number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) less the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares per warrant. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent.

Redemption of warrants when the price per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the SPAC Public Warrants become exercisable, we may call the outstanding SPAC Public Warrants for redemption (except for so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees):

• in whole and not in part;

• at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

• upon not less than 30 days prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

• if, and only if, the reported closing price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

We will not redeem the warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares is available throughout the 30 day redemption period. If and when the SPAC Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

232

Table of Contents

We have established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its SPAC Public Warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described under the heading “— Securities of Chenghe — SPAC Public Warrants — Anti-Dilution Adjustments”) as well as the $11.50 (for whole shares) warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

No fractional SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will round down to the nearest whole number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to the holder. If, at the time of redemption, the warrants are exercisable for a security other than the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the warrant agreement (for instance, if we are not the surviving company in our initial business combination), the warrants may be exercised for such security. At such time as the warrants become exercisable for a security other than the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, the Company (or surviving company) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security issuable upon the exercise of the warrants within twenty (20) Business Days of the closing of an initial business combination.

If we call the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise his, her or its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our shareholders of issuing the maximum number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” will mean the average reported closing price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for the 10 trading days on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. In no event will the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares per warrant (subject to adjustment). If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares to be received upon exercise of the warrants. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after our initial business combination. If we call our warrants for redemption and our management does not take advantage of this option, the holders of the private placement warrants and their permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their private placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrant holders would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

Redemption procedures

A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

Anti-dilution Adjustments

If the number of issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares is increased by a share capitalization or share dividend payable in SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, or by a subdivision of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization or share dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares. A rights offering holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares entitling holders to purchase SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares at a price less than the “historical fair market

233

Table of Contents

value” (as defined below) will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares) and multiplied by (ii) one minus the quotient of (x) the price per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share paid in such rights offering and divided by (y) the historical fair market value. For these purposes, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, in determining the price payable for SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “historical fair market value” means the volume weighted average price of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares as reported during the 10 trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on account of such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant) does not exceed $0.50 (being 5% of the offering price of the units sold in our initial public offering), (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to amend Chenghe Articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not consummate an initial business combination by the Extended Deadline or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share in respect of such event.

If the number of issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-division or reclassification of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-division, reclassification or similar event, the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares.

Whenever the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities, for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by our board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to our initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by our initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination on the date of the consummation of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of our SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares during the 10-trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which we consummate our initial business combination (such price, the “Market Value”) of our SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price (See “— Securities of Chenghe — Redemption of Warrants When the Price Per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share Equals or Exceeds $18.00”).

234

Table of Contents

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. However, if such holders were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets for which each warrant will become exercisable will be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by such holders in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and if a tender, exchange or redemption offer has been made to and accepted by such holders (other than a tender, exchange or redemption offer made by the company in connection with redemption rights held by shareholders of the company as provided for in the Chenghe Articles or as a result of the redemption of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares by the Company if a proposed initial business combination is presented to the shareholders of the company for approval) under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, the holder of a warrant will be entitled to receive the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such warrant holder had exercised the warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustment (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in the warrant agreement. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in such a transaction is payable in the form of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

The warrants have been issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any mistake, including to conform the provisions of the warrant agreement to the description of the terms of the warrants and the warrant agreement set forth in this prospectus, or defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, 50% of the then outstanding private placement warrants. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 2, 2022, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do

235

Table of Contents

not have the rights or privileges of holders of Ordinary Shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. After the issuance of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to our warrant agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be exclusive. This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum.

Warrants — Private Placement Warrants

The private placement warrants (including the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (except, among other limited exceptions, to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with our Sponsor) and they will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by our Sponsor, members of our Sponsor or their permitted transferees. The Sponsor or its permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the private placement warrants on a cashless basis. Except as described below, the private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the public warrants. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units sold in our initial public offering.

If holders of the private placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of our SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” will mean the average reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The reason that we have agreed that these warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees is because it is not known at this time whether they will be affiliated with us following a business combination. If they remain affiliated with us, their ability to sell our securities in the open market will be significantly limited. We expect to have policies in place that prohibit insiders from selling our securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell our securities, an insider cannot trade in our securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike Public Shareholders who could exercise their warrants and sell the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders could be significantly restricted from selling such securities. As a result, we believe that allowing the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis is appropriate.

Certain Differences in Corporate Law

Cayman Islands companies are governed by the Cayman Companies Act. The Cayman Companies Act is modeled on English law but does not follow recent English law statutory enactments, and differs from laws applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the material differences between the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders.

In certain circumstances, the Cayman Companies Act allows for mergers or consolidations between two Cayman Islands companies, or between a Cayman Islands exempted company and a company incorporated in another jurisdiction (provided that is facilitated by the laws of that other jurisdiction).

Where the merger or consolidation is between two Cayman Islands companies, the directors of each company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation containing certain prescribed information. That plan of merger or consolidation must then be authorized by either (a) a special resolution (at least two-thirds in value of the voting shares voted at a general meeting) of the shareholders of each company; or (b) such other authorization, if any, as may be specified in such constituent company’s articles of association. No shareholder resolution is required for a

236

Table of Contents

merger between a parent company (i.e., a company that owns at least 90% of the issued shares of each class in a subsidiary company) and its subsidiary company. The consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security interest of a constituent company must be obtained, unless the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands waives such requirement. If the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies is satisfied that the requirements of the Cayman Companies Act (which includes certain other formalities) have been complied with, the Registrar of Companies will register the plan of merger or consolidation.

Where the merger or consolidation involves a foreign company, the procedure is similar, save that with respect to the foreign company, the directors of the Cayman Islands exempted company are required to make a declaration to the effect that, having made due enquiry, they are of the opinion that the requirements set out below have been met: (i) that the merger or consolidation is permitted or not prohibited by the constitutional documents of the foreign company and by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the foreign company is incorporated, and that those laws and any requirements of those constitutional documents have been or will be complied with; (ii) that no petition or other similar proceeding has been filed and remains outstanding or order made or resolution adopted to wind up or liquidate the foreign company in any jurisdictions; (iii) that no receiver, trustee, administrator or other similar person has been appointed in any jurisdiction and is acting in respect of the foreign company, its affairs or its property or any part thereof; (iv) that no scheme, order, compromise or other similar arrangement has been entered into or made in any jurisdiction whereby the rights of creditors of the foreign company are and continue to be suspended or restricted.

Where the surviving company is the Cayman Islands exempted company, the directors of the Cayman Islands exempted company are further required to make a declaration to the effect that, having made due enquiry, they are of the opinion that the requirements set out below have been met: (i) that the foreign company is able to pay its debts as they fall due and that the merger or consolidated is bona fide and not intended to defraud unsecured creditors of the foreign company; (ii) that in respect of the transfer of any security interest granted by the foreign company to the surviving or consolidated company (a) consent or approval to the transfer has been obtained, released or waived; (b) the transfer is permitted by and has been approved in accordance with the constitutional documents of the foreign company; and (c) the laws of the jurisdiction of the foreign company with respect to the transfer have been or will be complied with; (iii) that the foreign company will, upon the merger or consolidation becoming effective, cease to be incorporated, registered or exist under the laws of the relevant foreign jurisdiction; and (iv) that there is no other reason why it would be against the public interest to permit the merger or consolidation.

Where the above procedures are adopted, the Cayman Companies Act provides for a right of dissenting shareholders to be paid a payment of the fair value of their shares upon their dissenting to the merger or consolidation if they follow a prescribed procedure. In essence, that procedure is as follows (a) the shareholder must give his written objection to the merger or consolidation to the constituent company before the vote on the merger or consolidation, including a statement that the shareholder proposes to demand payment for his shares if the merger or consolidation is authorized by the vote; (b) within 20 days following the date on which the merger or consolidation is approved by the shareholders, the constituent company must give written notice to each shareholder who made a written objection; (c) a shareholder must within 20 days following receipt of such notice from the constituent company, give the constituent company a written notice of his decision to dissent including, among other details, a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares; (d) within seven days following the date of the expiration of the period set out in paragraph (b) above or seven days following the date on which the plan of merger or consolidation is filed, whichever is later, the constituent company, the surviving company or the consolidated company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his shares at a price that the company determines is the fair value and if the company and the shareholder agree the price within 30 days following the date on which the offer was made, the company must pay the shareholder such amount; and (e) if the company and the shareholder fail to agree a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30-day period expires, the company (and any dissenting shareholder) must file a petition with the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands to determine the fair value and such petition must be accompanied by a list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the fair value of their shares have not been reached by the company. At the hearing of that petition, the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands has the power to determine the fair value of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the company upon the amount determined to be the fair value. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the company may participate fully in all proceedings until the determination of fair value is reached. These rights of a dissenting shareholder are not available in certain circumstances, for example, to dissenters holding shares of any class in respect of which an open market exists on a recognized stock exchange or recognized interdealer quotation system at the relevant date or where the consideration for such shares to be contributed are shares of any company listed on a national securities exchange or shares of the surviving or consolidated company.

Moreover, Cayman Islands law has separate statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction or amalgamation of companies in certain circumstances, schemes of arrangement will generally be more suited for complex mergers or other transactions involving widely held companies, commonly referred to in the Cayman Islands as a “scheme of arrangement” which may be tantamount to a merger. In the event that a merger was sought pursuant to a scheme of arrangement (the procedures for which are more rigorous and take longer to complete than the procedures typically required to consummate a merger in the United States), the arrangement in question must be approved by (a) 75% in value of shareholders; or (b) a majority representing 75% in value of creditors with whom the arrangement is to be made, that are present and voting either in person or by proxy at a meeting, or meeting summoned for that purpose. The convening of the meetings and subsequently the terms of the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While a dissenting shareholder would have the right to express to the court the view that the transaction should not be approved, the court can be expected to approve the arrangement if it satisfies itself that:

• we are not proposing to act illegally or beyond the scope of our corporate authority and the statutory provisions as to majority vote have been complied with;

• the shareholders have been fairly represented at the meeting in question;

• the arrangement is such as a businessman would reasonably approve; and

• the arrangement is not one that would more properly be sanctioned under some other provision of the Cayman Companies Act or that would amount to a “fraud on the minority.”

If a scheme of arrangement or takeover offer (as described below) is approved, any dissenting shareholder would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights (providing rights to receive payment in cash for the judicially determined value of the shares), which would otherwise ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of United States corporations.

Squeeze-out Provisions. When a takeover offer is made and accepted by holders of 90% of the shares to whom the offer relates is made within four months, the offeror may, within a two-month period, require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands but this is unlikely to succeed unless there is evidence of fraud, bad faith, collusion or inequitable treatment of the shareholders.

Further, transactions similar to a merger, reconstruction and/or an amalgamation may in some circumstances be achieved through means other than these statutory provisions, such as a share capital exchange, asset acquisition or control, or through contractual arrangements, of an operating business.

Shareholders’ Suits. Derivative actions have been brought in the Cayman Islands courts, and the Cayman Islands courts have confirmed the availability for such actions. In most cases, we will normally be the proper plaintiff in any claim based on a breach of duty owed to us, and a claim against (for example) our officers or directors usually may not be brought by a shareholder. However, based both on Cayman Islands authorities and on English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority and be applied by a court in the Cayman Islands, exceptions to the foregoing principle apply in circumstances in which:

• a company is acting, or proposing to act, illegally or beyond the scope of its authority;

• the act complained of, although not beyond the scope of the authority, could only be effected if duly authorized by more than the number of votes which have actually been obtained; or

• those who control the company are perpetrating a “fraud on the minority.”

A shareholder may have a direct right of action against us where the individual rights of that shareholder have been infringed or are about to be infringed.

Enforcement of Civil Liabilities. The Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States and provides less protection to investors. Additionally, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the Federal courts of the United States.

238

Table of Contents

We have been advised by our Cayman Islands legal counsel that the courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against it judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against it predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided such judgment (i) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given, (iii) is final and conclusive(iv) is not in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, and (v) was not obtained in a manner, and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Special Considerations for Exempted Companies. We are an exempted company with limited liability (meaning our Public Shareholders have no liability, as members of the company, for liabilities of the company over and above the amount paid for their shares) under the Cayman Companies Act. The Cayman Companies Act distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except for the exemptions and privileges listed below:

• an exempted company does not have to file an annual return of its shareholders with the Registrar of Companies;

• an exempted company’s register of members is not open to inspection;

• an exempted company does not have to hold an annual general meeting;

• an exempted company may issue shares with no par value;

• an exempted company may obtain an undertaking against the imposition of any future taxation (such undertakings are usually given for 20 years in the first instance);

• an exempted company may register by way of continuation in another jurisdiction and be deregistered in the Cayman Islands;

• an exempted company may register as a limited duration company; and

• an exempted company may register as a segregated portfolio company.

“Limited liability” means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on that shareholder’s shares of the company (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Chenghe

Chenghe Articles contain provisions designed to provide certain rights and protections relating to our initial public offering that will apply to us until the completion of our initial business combination.

These provisions cannot be amended without a special resolution. As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a special resolution needs to be adopted by either (i) at least two-thirds (or any higher threshold specified in a company’s articles of association) of a company’s shareholders at a general meeting for which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given; or (ii) if so authorized by a company’s articles of association, by a unanimous written resolution of all of the company’s shareholders. Chenghe Articles provide that special resolutions

239

Table of Contents

must be approved either by at least two-thirds of our shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company (i.e., the lowest threshold permissible under Cayman Islands law), or by a unanimous written resolution of all of our shareholders.

Our initial shareholders holding the Founder Shares, who collectively beneficially own 25.4% of SPAC Ordinary Shares, will participate in any vote to amend Chenghe Articles and will have the discretion to vote in any manner they choose. Specifically, Chenghe Articles provide, among other things, that:

• If we are unable to complete our initial business combination by the Extended Deadline, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law;

• Prior to our initial business combination, we may not issue additional securities that would entitle the holders thereof to (i) receive funds from the Trust Account or (ii) vote as a class with public shares on our initial business combination;

• Although we do not intend to enter into a business combination with a target business that is affiliated with our Sponsor, our directors or our officers, we are not prohibited from doing so. In the event we enter into such a transaction, we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm which is a member of FINRA or a valuation or appraisal firm that such a business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view;

• If a shareholder vote on our initial business combination is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will offer to redeem our public shares pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, and will file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about our initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act;

• We must complete one or more business combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial business combination;

• If our shareholders approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by the Extended Deadline or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, we will provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares upon the approval or effectiveness of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations provided therein; and

• We will not effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.

In addition, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide we will not redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. We may, however, raise funds through the issuance of equity-linked securities or through loans, advances or other indebtedness in connection

240

Table of Contents

with our initial business combination, including pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop arrangements we may enter into following consummation of our initial public offering, in order to, among other reasons, satisfy such net tangible assets requirement.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Chenghe

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that our board of directors is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual general meetings.

Our authorized but unissued SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and Chenghe Preference Shares are available for future issuances without shareholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and Chenghe Preference Shares could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Securities of CayCo

The following description of the material terms of the share capital of CayCo following the completion of the Business Combination includes a summary of specified provisions of the amended and restated memorandum of association (the “Memorandum of Association”) and the amended and restated articles of association of CayCo (the “Articles of Association” and together with the Memorandum of Association, the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”) that will be in effect upon completion of the Business Combination. This description is qualified by reference to CayCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association as will be in effect upon consummation of the Business Combination, the form of which is attached to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement as Annex B and is incorporated in this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement by reference. References in this section to “we” or “us” refer to CayCo.

General

CayCo is a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and, as of the Closing, its affairs will be governed by its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, as amended from time to time, the Cayman Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, CayCo will be authorized to issue 500,000,000 Ordinary Shares of par value of US$0.0001 each (“Ordinary Shares”). As of the date of this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement, there are 28,000,000 shares issued and outstanding.

Share Capital

All of our issued and outstanding CayCo Ordinary Shares are fully paid and non-assessable. The CayCo Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form, and are issued when registered in the register of members of CayCo. CayCo may not issue CayCo Ordinary Shares to bearer. Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act and the Articles of Association and the rules of the Stock Exchange, where applicable, and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing shares, all shares in CayCo are at the disposal of the board, which may issue, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times, on such terms and conditions as it in its absolute discretion thinks fit.

Each CayCo Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one (1) vote on all matters subject to vote at general and special meetings of the Company.

Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, Articles of Association and the rules of the Stock Exchange, where applicable, any share may be issued (a) with or have attached thereto such rights, or such restrictions, whether with regard to dividend, voting, return of capital, or otherwise, as the directors may determine, and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing shares, or (b) on terms that, at the option of CayCo or the holder thereof, it is liable to be redeemed.

241

Table of Contents

Dividends

The directors may declare dividends to be paid to the members. The Articles of Association provide dividends may be declared and paid out of the profits of CayCo, realized or unrealized, or out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by the Cayman Companies Act. In addition, CayCo’s shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by the directors. No dividend may be declared and paid unless the directors determine that, immediately after the payment, CayCo will be able to pay its debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business and CayCo has funds lawfully available for such purpose.

Variation of Rights

Subject to the Articles of Association, if at any time the share capital of CayCo is divided into different classes of shares, all or any of the rights attached to the shares or any class of shares may (unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of that class) be varied, modified or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of an ordinary resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. To every such general meeting the provisions of the Articles of Association relating to general meetings will mutatis mutandis apply, but so that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy not less than one-third (1/3) of the issued shares of that class. Every holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy shall be entitled to one vote for every such share held by him.

Transfer of Shares

Subject to the Articles of Association, our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her CayCo Ordinary Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the Stock Exchange or any other form approved by the board of directors. The board may, in its absolute discretion, and without giving any reason therefor, decline to register any transfer of CayCo Ordinary Share which is not fully paid up to a person of whom it does not approve, or any share issued under any share incentive scheme for employees upon which a restriction on transfer imposed thereby still subsists. The board may also decline to register any transfer of any share unless a fee (not exceeding the maximum sum as the Stock Exchange may determine to be payable) determined by the board is paid to CayCo, the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (if required), it is in respect of only one class of share, the number of joint holders to whom the share is to be transferred does not exceed four (in the case of a transfer to joint holders) and is lodged with CayCo accompanied by the relevant share certificate(s) and such other evidence as the board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.

Liquidation

On a return of capital on winding up or otherwise (other than on conversion, redemption or purchase of shares), if the assets available for distribution amongst our shareholders shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst CayCo’s shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up, subject to a deduction from those shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to CayCo for unpaid calls or otherwise. If CayCo’s assets available for distribution are insufficient to repay all of the paid up share capital, the assets will be distributed so that, as nearly as possible, the losses are borne by CayCo’s shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up. Any distribution of assets or capital to a holder of CayCo Ordinary Share will be the same in any liquidation event.

Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Articles of Association permit indemnification of officers and directors from and against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, losses, damages and liabilities which they or any of them, their or any of their personal representatives, incurred or sustained by them, other than by reason of their own dishonesty, wilful default or fraud, in or about the conduct of CayCo’s business or affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of their duties, powers, authorities or discretions, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by such director or officer in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning CayCo or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.

242

Table of Contents

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling our company under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certain provisions in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for CayCo Ordinary Shares. These provisions are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors.

Ordinary Shares

The authorized but unissued CayCo Ordinary Shares will be available for future issuance by the board of directors on such terms as our board of directors may determine, subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, the Articles of Association and the rules of the Stock Exchange, where applicable, and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing shares. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued CayCo Ordinary Shares could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control over us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement or otherwise.

Warrants

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, each SPAC Warrant outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination will cease to be a warrant with respect to SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and be assumed by CayCo and converted into an CayCo Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one CayCo Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share upon exercise. Each CayCo Warrant will otherwise continue to have, and be subject to, substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such SPAC Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Board of Directors

Our board of directors shall consist of such number of directors as the shareholders may from time to time determine and there should be a minimum of five (5) directors unless otherwise determined by the shareholders in general meeting. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, our board of directors will consist of five directors. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the form of which is attached to this Registration Statement/Proxy Statement/prospectus, one of our directors should be nominated by the Sponsor, and at least three of our directors shall be independent director. Further, as long as the Sponsor Parties beneficially own any CayCo Ordinary Shares, CayCo shall take all necessary action to call the individuals nominated by the Sponsor to be elected at the applicable meetings of shareholder of CayCo.

Appointment of Directors

Our directors shall, be elected by the shareholders by way of any special resolution to either fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing directors. The board of directors shall have power at any time to appoint any person as a director, either to fill casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing directors.

Any director may in writing appoint another person to be such director’s alternate, with the alternate having the authority to act in the director’s place at any meeting at which the appointing director is unable to be present. A director may, but is not required to, appoint another director to be an alternate.

Removal of Directors

A director may be removed from office by special resolution of CayCo before the expiration of his period of office. A director will also cease to be a director if he or she (i) dies, becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with such director’s creditors generally; (ii) is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; (iii) resigns the office of director by notice in writing to the company; (iv) is removed from office pursuant to the Articles of Association; or (v) is prohibited, by any applicable law or the rules of the Stock Exchange, from being a director.

Directors’ Fiduciary Duties

Under Cayman Islands law, directors and officers owe the following fiduciary duties:

• duty to act in good faith in what the director or officer believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole;

• duty to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose;

• duty not to improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion;

• duty to exercise powers fairly as between different sections of members;

• duty not to put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests; and

• duty to exercise independent judgment.

In addition to the above, directors and officers also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill and experience of that director.

Meetings of Shareholders

As a Cayman Islands exempted company, CayCo is not obliged by law to call annual general meetings. According to the Articles of Association, CayCo may hold an annual general meeting of the Company every year.

Capitalization of Profits and Reserves

Subject to applicable law, the directors may resolve to capitalize all or any part of any amount standing to the credit of any reserve accounts or funds (including a share premium account and capital redemption reserve and the profit and loss account) for distribution among the shareholders or any class of shareholders who would be entitled thereto if it were distributed by way of dividend and in the proportion to the nominal amount of shares held by such shareholders respectively, on the footing that the same is applied either in or towards paying up the amounts for the time being unpaid on any shares in the Company held by such shareholders respectively or in paying up in full unissued shares or debentures of a nominal amount equal to that sum, to be allotted and distributed credited as fully paid up among such shareholders in those proportions, or partly in one way and partly in the other, provided that, for the purposes above, a share premium account and any capital redemption reserve and profits which are not available for distribution, may be applied only in paying up unissued shares of the Company to be allotted to such shareholders credited as fully paid.

Amendments to Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of CayCo

The Articles of Association may be altered or amended by the Company by special resolution. The Articles of Association state that a special resolution shall be required to alter the provisions of the Memorandum of Association, to amend the Articles of Association or to change the name of the Company.

Mergers and Consolidations

CayCo may by a special resolution merge or consolidate with one or more constituent companies (as defined in the Cayman Companies Act), upon such terms as our directors may determine subject to the Cayman Companies Act.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

Following the completion of the Business Combination, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company will act as the transfer agent and registrar for CayCo Ordinary Shares.

Stock Exchange Listing

CayCo will apply for listing, to be effective at the time of the closing of the Business Combination, of its CayCo Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq under the symbol “SELX.” CayCo will not have units issued or traded following consummation of the Business Combination.

Enforceability of Civil Liability under Cayman Islands Law

CayCo has been advised by its Cayman Islands legal counsel that there is uncertainty as to whether courts of the Cayman Islands would (i) recognize or enforce against it judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state; and (ii) entertain original actions brought in the Cayman Islands against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a foreign judgment, without any re-examination or re-litigation of matters adjudicated upon, based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay a liquidated sum for which judgment has been given, provided such judgment: (a) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction; (b) imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given; (c) is final and conclusive; (d) is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty; (e) was not obtained in a manner, and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Anti-Money Laundering

In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering, we are required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures and may require subscribers to provide evidence to verify their identity and source of funds. Where permitted, and subject to certain conditions, we may also delegate the maintenance of our anti-money laundering procedures (including the acquisition of due diligence information) to a suitable person.

We reserve the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber. In some cases the directors may be satisfied that no further information is required since an exemption applies under the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations (Revised) of the Cayman Islands, as amended and revised from time to time (the “Regulations”). Depending on the circumstances of each application, a detailed verification of identity might not be required where:

• the subscriber makes the payment for their investment from an account held in the subscriber’s name at a recognized financial institution; or

• the subscriber is regulated by a recognized regulatory authority and is based or incorporated in, or formed under the law of, a recognized jurisdiction; or

• the application is made through an intermediary which is regulated by a recognized regulatory authority and is based in or incorporated in, or formed under the law of a recognized jurisdiction and an assurance is provided in relation to the procedures undertaken on the underlying investors.

For the purposes of these exceptions, recognition of a financial institution, regulatory authority, or jurisdiction will be determined in accordance with the Regulations by reference to those jurisdictions recognized by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority as having equivalent anti-money laundering regulations.

In the event of delay or failure on the part of the subscriber in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.

We also reserve the right to refuse to make any redemption payment to a shareholder if our directors or officers suspect or are advised that the payment of redemption proceeds to such shareholder might result in a breach of applicable anti-money laundering or other laws or regulations by any person in any relevant jurisdiction, or if such refusal is considered necessary or appropriate to ensure our compliance with any such laws or regulations in any applicable jurisdiction.

If any person resident in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reason for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or is involved with terrorism or terrorist property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of their business in the regulated sector, or other

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of SPAC

SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of the offering and formation costs of SPAC in exchange for an aggregate of 7,187,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares. On June 20, 2021 and on December 28, 2021, respectively, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to SPAC 1,437,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares for no consideration, following which, the Sponsor holds 4,312,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares. On March 29, 2022, the Sponsor further surrendered and forfeited to SPAC 1,437,500 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares for no consideration, following which the Sponsor holds 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares. As a result of these surrender and forfeiture of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares, the per share price increased to approximately $0.009 per share. On March 30, 2022, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 177,439 of its SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares to SPAC’s independent directors and advisory board members, for their board and advisory services, in each case for no cash consideration, including 20,000 shares to each of Kwan Sun, Robert Ewing and Ning Ma, 50,000 shares to Kenneth W. Hitchner and 67,439 shares to Dr. Zhiwei Liu, respectively. Currently, the Sponsor holds 2,697,561 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares. Up to 375,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares were subject to forfeiture to the extent over-allotment not exercised in full. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, hence, 375,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture, so that the total number of SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2023 was 2,875,000, with the Sponsor holding 2,697,561 thereof.

The SPAC Initial Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and any SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the initial business combination or (ii) the date on which SPAC completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the initial business combination that results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the initial shareholders with respect to any SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares (the “lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial business combination or (2) if SPAC consummate a transaction after the initial business combination which results in the shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property, the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares will be released from the lock-up.

At the Closing, CayCo, the Sponsor, certain Company Shareholders and certain Sponsor Key Holders will enter into the Lock-up Agreement, pursuant to which, each holder agrees to not to transfer any lock-up shares for a period of six (6) months after the Closing Date, with certain exceptions and carveouts. See the subsection entitled “The Business Combination Agreement and Ancillary Documents — Lock-Up Agreement.”

Private Warrants

Concurrently with the closing of the SPAC IPO, SPAC consummated a private placement to the Sponsor of 7,750,000 SPAC Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, in a private placement generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000. The proceeds from the sale of the SPAC Private Placement Warrants were added to the net proceeds from SPAC IPO held in the Trust Account. If SPAC does not complete a business combination prior to the SPAC Termination Date, the funds then on deposit in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the SPAC Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on April 27, 2022, the effective date of SPAC’s registration statement for SPAC IPO, SPAC pays to the Sponsor $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and administrative services provided to members of SPAC’s management team. Upon completion of the initial business combination or SPAC’s liquidation, SPAC will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, SPAC incurred $45,000 and $135,000 in fees for these services, respectively, and such amount is included in due to the Sponsor in the accompanying balance sheets. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, SPAC incurred $45,000 and $76,548, respectively, in fees for these services, and such amount is included in due to the Sponsor in the accompanying balance sheets.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor has agreed to loan SPAC up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the SPAC IPO. These loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of June 30, 2022 or the closing of the SPAC IPO. As of May 2, 2022, SPAC had borrowed $300,000 and repaid under the promissory note.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance working capital deficit or to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of SPAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan SPAC funds as may be required. If SPAC completes its initial business combination, it will repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, SPAC may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into SPAC Private Placement Warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The terms of such warrants would be identical to those of the SPAC Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Registration Rights

On April 27, 2022, SPAC entered into a registration and shareholder rights agreement, pursuant to which, the holders of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and their permitted transferees, if any, will be entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares and SPAC Private Placement Warrants and the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the SPAC Private Placement Warrants issuable upon conversion of Working Capital Loans.

At the Closing, CayCo, Merger Sub, SPAC, TCO and other parties listed thereto will enter into the Investor Rights Agreement, pursuant to which, among others, CayCo will agree to undertake certain resale shelf registration obligations in accordance with the Securities Act and certain holders have been granted customary demand and piggyback registration rights.

• Scenario 1 — Assuming No Redemptions: This presentation assumes that no holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercise redemption rights for a pro rata share of the funds in the Trust Account and the total number of CayCo Ordinary Shares expected to be outstanding after the Closing will be 49,312,681.

• Scenario 2 — Assuming Intermediate Redemptions: This presentation assumes that the holders of 4,218,841 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares exercise redemption rights for a pro rata share of the funds in the Trust Account and the total number of CayCo Ordinary Shares expected to be outstanding after the Closing will be 45,093,840.

• Scenario 3 — Assuming Maximum Redemptions: This presentation assumes that holders of 7,213,618 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights. The number of Public Shares redeemed under the maximum redemption scenario is calculated based on the assumptions that following the redemption, (i) SPAC will be able to pay total liabilities in the amount of $6,192,342 as of September 30, 2023 from the Trust Account at the Closing, (ii) SPAC will be able to pay $2,300,000 of estimated transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination from the Trust Account at the Closing; and (iii) after the payment of liabilities and expenses set forth in (i) and (ii) above, SPAC will have US$5,000,001 net asset at the Closing as required by the SPAC Articles. The total number of CayCo Ordinary Shares expected to be outstanding after the Closing will be 42,099,063.

In connection with the Business Combination, SPAC and the Company Parties agreed on a fixed post-money equity value of $380,000,000 for TCO and $10.00 per share reference price. The expected beneficial ownership of CayCo Ordinary Shares immediately following consummations of the Business Combination, under both scenarios, has been determined based on the assumptions that (i) at Closing, the number of CayCo Ordinary Shares issued to former TCO shareholders equal to the product of 38,000,000 and percentage of former TCO shareholders participate in TCO Restructuring, (ii) none of SPAC Shareholders or Company Shareholders purchase SPAC Ordinary Shares in the open market, (iii) SPAC’s Sponsor has not made any Working Capital Loans to SPAC, and (iv) there are no other issuance of equity interests of SPAC or TCO prior to or in connection with the Closing other than as contemplated by the Transactions. If the actual facts differ from these assumptions, these amounts will differ.

As of September 30, 2023, there were approximately $91.42 million in the Trust Account.

The payment of any cash dividends of the ordinary shares of CayCo subsequent to the initial business combination will be within the discretion of the CayCo Board at such time.

The board of directors of CayCo has complete discretion in deciding whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain restrictions under Cayman Islands law, namely that it may only pay dividends out of profits or share premium, and provided always that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in it being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, CayCo’s shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by CayCo’s board of directors. Even if its board of directors decides to pay dividends, the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on, among other things, its future results of operations and cash flow, its capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by it from its subsidiaries, its financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by its board of directors.

SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER
U.S. SECURITIES LAWS

CayCo is a company incorporated as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands, which can enjoy the following benefits: (a) political and economic stability; (b) an effective judicial system; (c) a favorable tax system; (d) the absence of exchange control or currency restrictions; and (e) the availability of professional and support services. However, certain disadvantages accompany incorporation in the Cayman Islands. These disadvantages include:

• the Cayman Islands has a less exhaustive body of securities laws than the United States and these securities laws provide significantly less protection to investors; and

• Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the federal courts of the United States.

CayCo’s constitutional documents do not contain provisions requiring that disputes, including those arising under the securities laws of the United States, among us, our officers, directors and shareholders, be arbitrated.

All of CayCo’s directors and executive ofﬁcers as of the closing of the Business Combination will reside outside the United States. The majority of CayCo’s assets and the assets of those non-resident persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon CayCo or those persons or to enforce against CayCo or them, judgments obtained in U.S. courts, or to enforce in U.S. courts, judgments obtained against them in courts in jurisdictions outside the United States, including judgments predicated upon civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or other laws of the United States. It may also be difficult for shareholder to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against CayCo and its executive officers and directors.

CayCo has appointed Cogency Global Inc. as its agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against CayCo under the laws of the United States arising out of this offering or any purchase or sale of securities in connection with this offering. In addition, investors should not assume that the courts of the Cayman Islands would enforce (i) judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against CayCo, its ofﬁcers or directors, or other said persons, predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or other laws of the CayCo; or (ii) in original actions, liabilities against CayCo or such directors, ofﬁcers or experts predicated upon the federal securities laws of the United States or other laws of the United States. In addition, there is doubt as to the applicability of the civil liability provisions of federal securities laws of the United States to original actions instituted in the Cayman Islands. It may be difﬁcult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in original actions instituted in the Cayman Islands.

CayCo has been advised by our Cayman Islands legal counsel that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would:

• recognize or enforce against CayCo judgments of courts of the United States based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws; and

• entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against CayCo or its directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

There is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a foreign judgment, without any re-examination or re-litigation of matters adjudicated upon, based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay a liquidated sum for which judgment has been given, provided such judgment:

(a) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction;

(b) imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given;

(d) is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty;

(e) was not obtained in a manner, is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands.

However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Chenghe Acquisition Co

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Chenghe Acquisition Co. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for year ended December 31, 2022, and for the period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for year ended December 31, 2022, and for the Period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Explanatory Paragraph — Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the company’s liquidation date is less than one year from the date of the financial statements is issued. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2022

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Chenghe Acquisition Co. (the “Company”) is a newly incorporated blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 7, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any potential Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any potential Business Combination target.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and searching for a Business Combination target. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on April 27, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). On May 2, 2022, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units, including the issuance of 1,500,000 units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 7,750,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants,” such private placement, the “Private Placement”), (including 750,000 private placement warrants in connection with the full exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Chenghe Investment Co. (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000, which is discussed in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $7,208,947 consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting discount, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting discount, and $883,947 of other offering costs.

The Company must complete one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting commissions held in trust) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires an interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

Following the closing of the IPO on May 2, 2022, an amount of $118,450,000 ($10.30 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the public units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a Trust Account (“Trust Account”), located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and may only be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as define below), subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company has not

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN (cont.)

consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.

The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.30 per public share. The per share amount the Company will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters.

The ordinary shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

The Company will have only 15 months or during one of the three three-month extensions (for a total up to 24 months) from the closing of the IPO (collectively, the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company has not completed the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination; waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity; waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame; and (ii) vote any founder shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial Business Combination.

reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.30 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.30 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company lacked the liquidity it needed to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of the financial statements. The Company has since completed its IPO at which time capital in excess of the funds deposited in the Trust Account and/or used to fund offering expenses was released to the Company for general working capital purposes. Accordingly, management has since reevaluated the Company’s liquidity and financial condition and determined that sufficient capital exists to sustain operations one year from the date these financial statements are issued and therefore substantial doubt has been alleviated.

In addition, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until August 1, 2023 (absent of any extension as described above) to consummate the initial Business Combination. The Company intends to complete the initial Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by August 1, 2023. Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after August 1, 2023 (absent of any extension as described above).

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company held $640,833 and nil in cash as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of December 31, 2022, the assets held in the Trust Account were marketable securities which are reported at fair value. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $120,082,704 held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Class A ordinary share subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ (deficit) equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.

As of December 31, 2022, the amount of Class A ordinary shares reflected on the balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds	$	115,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants		(1,667,500	)
Class A ordinary shares issuance at cost		(7,049,417	)
Plus:
Re-measurement for Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption		13,799,621
Contingently redeemable ordinary share	$	120,082,704

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1, SEC Staff Accounting bulletin Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering”, and SEC Staff Accounting bulletin Topic 5T — “Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities Paid by Principal Stockholder(s)”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction of equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $7,208,947 as a result of the IPO (consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting fees, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $883,947 of other offering costs).

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. The number of weighted average shares for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 was reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 375,000 ordinary shares that were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised by the underwriters. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, hence, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture. (see Note 5). As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

	Year Ended December 31, 2022				For the Period from April 7, 2021 (Inception) through December 31, 2021
	Class A		Class B		Class A		Class B
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share
Numerator:
Allocation of net income (loss)	$	723,845	$	258,995	$	—	$	(12,475	)
Denominator:
Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding		7,687,671		2,750,685		—		2,500,000
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share	$	0.09	$	0.09	$	—	$	(0.00	)

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

Level 1	—	Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2	—	Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.
Level 3	—	Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets. The fair values of cash, prepaid assets, and accounts payable are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 due to the short maturities of such instruments.

The estimated fair values of all assets held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information and classified as Level 1 measurements.

Warrant Instruments

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are outstanding. Upon further review of the proposed forms of warrant agreements, management concluded that the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants to be issued pursuant to the warrant agreements qualify for equity accounting treatment.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted

method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On May 2, 2022, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units, including 1,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). Each warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination, and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 7,750,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $7,750,000.

A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the IPO held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will be worthless (See Note 7).

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of the offering and formation costs in exchange for an aggregate of 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”). On June 20, 2021 and on December 28, 2021, respectively, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which, the Sponsor holds 4,312,500 Founder Shares. On March 29, 2022, the Sponsor further surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which the Sponsor holds 2,875,000 Founder Shares. As a result of these surrender and forfeiture of Founder Shares, the per share price increased to approximately $0.009 per share. On March 30, 2022, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 177,439 of its Founder Shares to the Company’s independent director nominees and advisory board member, for their board and advisory services, in each case for no cash consideration, including 20,000 shares to each of Kwan Sun, Robert Ewing and Ning Ma, 50,000 shares to Kenneth W. Hitchner and 67,439 shares to Dr. Zhiwei Liu, respectively. Currently, the Sponsor holds 2,697,561 of the Company’s outstanding Class B ordinary shares. Up to 375,000 Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture to the extent over-allotment not exercised in full. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, hence, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture, so that the number of Founder Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was 2,875,000.

will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the initial shareholders with respect to any Founder Shares (the “lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummate a transaction after the initial Business Combination which results in the shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on April 27, 2022, the effective date of the Company’s registration statement for IPO, the Company will pay to the Sponsor $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and administrative services provided to members of the Company’s management team. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred $121,548 in fees for these services, and such amount is included in due to Sponsor in the accompanying balance sheets. For the period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company did not incur any fees for these services.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. These loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of June 30, 2022 or the closing of the IPO. As of May 2, 2022, the Company had borrowed $300,000 and repaid under the promissory note.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance working capital deficit or to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes its initial Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS

Registration Rights

The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of the IPO, (ii) Private Placement Warrants, which will be issued in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and the Class A ordinary shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants and (iii) Private Placement Warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of the Company’s securities held by them pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

On May 2, 2022, the underwriters were paid a cash underwriting fee of 2% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, totaling $2,300,000.

In addition, $0.35 per unit, or approximately $4,025,000 in the aggregate, will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ (DEFICIT) EQUITY

Preference Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 5,000,000 preference shares at par value of $0.0001 each. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no shares of preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at par value of $0.0001 each. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no shares of Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding, excluding 11,500,000 and nil shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, respectively.

Class B Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares at par value of $0.0001 each. On April 8, 2021, the Company issued 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares to its Sponsor for $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share. On June 20, 2021 and on December 28, 2021, respectively, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which, the Sponsor holds 4,312,500 Founder Shares. On March 29, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares, following which the Sponsor holds 2,875,000 Founder Shares, 375,000 of which are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, hence, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture, so that the number of Founder Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was 2,875,000.

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial Business Combination, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by public shareholders), including the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business

Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans; provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

of the holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, and pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, such actions include amending the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another company.

Warrants — As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the total number of Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants outstanding were 13,500,000 and nil, respectively. Each whole warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities, for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A ordinary shares during the 10-trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) of the Class A ordinary shares is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The warrants cannot be exercised until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination, and will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, the Company will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) less the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the average reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent or on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, as applicable. In no event will the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 Class A ordinary shares per warrant (subject to adjustment).

Redemption of Warrants

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

• in whole and not in part;

• at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

• upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

• if, and only if, the reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

The “fair market value” of the Class A ordinary shares shall mean the average reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.

NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Chenghe Acquisition Co. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 7, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “business combination”).

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 7, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (the “IPO”), the search for a business combination target after IPO and the negotiation of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on April 27, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). On May 2, 2022, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units, including the issuance of 1,500,000 units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option (the “Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (the “public share”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrant”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 7,750,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), including 750,000 Private Placement Warrants in connection with the full exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to Chenghe Investment Co. (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000, which is discussed in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $7,208,947 consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting discount, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting discount, and $883,947 of other offering costs.

The Company must complete one or more business combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting commissions held in trust) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial business combination. However, the Company will only complete a business combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires an interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a business combination.

Following the closing of the IPO on May 2, 2022, an amount of $118,450,000 ($10.30 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the public units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and may only be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination within the Combination Period (as define below), subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company has not

consummated an initial business combination within the Combination Period, or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.

The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.30 per public share. The per share amount the Company will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters.

The ordinary shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a business combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a business combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the business combination.

The Company has only 15 months or during one of the three three-month extensions approved by the board of directors pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Original Extension Right”), for a total up to 24 months, from the closing of the IPO (collectively, the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial business combination. If the Company has not completed the initial business combination within the Combination Period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.

On July 26, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary Meeting”) at which the shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (i) extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which the Company must (A) consummate a business combination or (B) cease its operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to complete such business combination and redeem or repurchase 100% of the Company’s public shares, for three months, from August 2, 2023 (the date which is 15 months from the closing date of the IPO, the “Original Termination Date”) to November 2, 2023 (the “First-Phase Extended Date”) for a deposit (the “First-Phase Extension Contribution”), for the period from the Original Termination Date to the First-Phase Extended Date, of the lesser of (a) $300,000 and (b) $0.075 for each public share not redeemed as of the Original Termination Date and to allow the Company, without the need for any further approval of the Company’s shareholders, by resolutions of the board of directors of the Company, to elect to further extend the Termination Date, up to six times, each by an additional month, for an aggregate of six additional months beyond the First-Phase Extended Date, until up to May 2, 2024, for a deposit (each such monthly deposit, the “Second-Phase Extension Contribution” and each of the First-Phase Extension Contribution and the Second-Phase Extension Contribution, an “Extension Contribution”), for each monthly extension after the First-Phase Extended Date, of the lesser of (a) $100,000 and (b) $0.025 for each public share not redeemed as

of the Original Termination Date (such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”); and (ii) provide for the right of a holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares to convert into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis at any time before or concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the business combination at the election of the holder. TCO (as defined below) has agreed to loan 50% of the amount of the Extension Contributions to the Company pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) and the Sponsor will loan to the Company as needed. Such loans will not bear interest and will be repayable by the Company upon consummation of its initial business combination.

The First-Phase Extension Contribution was deposited into the Trust Account in three equal instalments of $100,000 on August 9, 2023, September 11, 2023 and October 6, 2023, respectively, for the extension of the Termination Date from August 2, 2023 to November 2, 2023. The Company has determined to further extend the Termination Date to December 2, 2023, and will make the first tranche of Second-Phase Extension Contribution shortly after the condensed financial statements are issued. 50% of the funds was from the cash held by the Company outside the Trust Account and 50% was loaned by TCO.

The Sponsor, officers, directors and advisory board members (the “initial shareholders”) have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination; waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial business combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity; waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial business combination within the Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame; and (ii) vote any Founder Shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately- negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial business combination.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.30 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.30 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations.

On June 13, 2023, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that since the Company’s aggregate market value of its outstanding Public Warrants was less than $1 million, the Company was no longer in compliance with the Nasdaq Global Market

continued listing criteria set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5452(b)(C), which requires the Company to maintain an aggregate market value of its outstanding warrants of at least $1 million. Further, on September 12, 2023, the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notified the Company that Nasdaq determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s Public Warrants from Nasdaq and that trading in the Public Warrants would be suspended at the opening of business on September 21, 2023. The Company did not request an appeal of such determination. On October 12, 2023, Nasdaq filed a notification of removal from listing on Form 25, indicating the delisting of the Public Warrants from Nasdaq.

Business Combination Agreement

On July 21, 2023, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Semilux International Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“CayCo”), SEMILUX LTD., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (“Merger Sub”), and Taiwan Color Optics, Inc. (“TCO” and together with CayCo and Merger Sub, the “TCO Parties”), a company incorporated and in existence under the laws of Taiwan with uniform commercial number of 25052644, pursuant to which, among other transactions, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company with the Company being the surviving company and as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (the “Merger”), and the Company will change its name to “SEMILUX LTD.” (the “Business Combination”).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the time when the Merger becomes effective, (i) each outstanding Unit will be automatically separated (“Unit Separation”) and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one Class A ordinary share and one-half Public Warrant of the Company; (ii) each then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share of the Company will be automatically converted into one Class A ordinary share of the Company (the “SPAC Class B Conversion”) and each Class B ordinary share of the Company shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; (iii) each Class A ordinary share of the Company (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes the Class A ordinary shares (A) issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion; and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) shall be converted into the right to receive one ordinary share of CayCo; and (iv) each warrant of the Company that is outstanding and unexercised shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a warrant of CayCo, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the applicable warrant of the Company.

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the obligations of the parties (or, in some cases, some of the parties) to consummate the Business Combination are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions of the respective parties, including, among others, (i) the accuracy of representations and warranties to various standards, from no material qualifier to a material adverse effect qualifier, (ii) material compliance with pre-closing covenants, (iii) no material adverse effect for TCO, (iv) TCO’s Company Acquisition Percentage (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) reaching at least 90.1%; (v) the consummation of the TCO Restructuring (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement); (v) the delivery of customary closing certificates, (vi) the receipt of required governmental approval and such approval being effective, (vii) the receipt of all required third party consents, if any, (viii) the absence of a legal prohibition on consummating the transactions, (ix) approval by the Company’s and TCO’s shareholders, (x) approval of a listing application on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market for newly issued shares, and (xi) the Company having at least US$5,000,001 of net tangible assets remaining after redemption.

and/or used to fund offering expenses was released to the Company for general working capital purposes. Accordingly, management has since reevaluated the Company’s liquidity and financial condition and determined that sufficient capital exists to sustain operations one year from the date these financial statements are issued.

In addition, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until December 2, 2023 (or May 2, 2024 if the Company properly extends the Termination Date as authorized under the Extension Amendment Proposal) to consummate the initial business combination. The Company intends to complete the initial business combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any business combination by December 2, 2023 (or May 2, 2024 if the Company properly extends the Termination Date as authorized under the Extension Amendment Proposal). Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after December 2, 2023 (or May 2, 2024 if the Company properly extends the Termination Date as authorized under the Extension Amendment Proposal).

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a business combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a business combination are not yet determinable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future periods.

Emerging Growth Company

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company held $185,764 and $640,833 in cash as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the assets held in the Trust Account were marketable securities which are reported at fair value. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $91,420,697 and $120,082,704 held in the Trust Account.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Class A ordinary share subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

Under ASC 480-10-S99, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security.

In connection with the Extraordinary Meeting held on July 26, 2023, the holders of 3,062,319 Class A ordinary shares elected to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.70 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of $32,772,628, leaving approximately $90 million in the Trust Account.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of Class A ordinary shares reflected on the balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

Income Taxes

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net (Loss) Income per Ordinary Share

Net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, hence, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture (see Note 5). In connection with the Extraordinary Meeting held on July 26, 2023, the holders of 3,062,319 Class A ordinary shares elected to redeem their shares for cash, leaving 8,437,681 Class A ordinary shares still outstanding.

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted (loss) income per share is the same as basic income per share for the periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

Level 1	—	Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2	—	Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.
Level 3	—	Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets. The fair values of cash, prepaid assets, and accounts payable are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to the short maturities of such instruments.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

The estimated fair values of all assets held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information and classified as Level 1 measurements.

Warrant Instruments

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are outstanding. Based on the warrant agreement and private placement warrants purchase agreement, both dated April 27, 2022, pursuant to which the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants were issued respectively, management concluded that the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants qualify for equity accounting treatment.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company has determined not to early adopt ASU 2020-06.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On May 2, 2022, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units, including 1,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). Each warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination, and will expire five years after the completion of the initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 7,750,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $7,750,000.

A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the IPO held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the public shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will be worthless (see Note 8).

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On April 8, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of the offering and formation costs in exchange for an aggregate of 7,187,500 Founder Shares. On June 20, 2021 and on December 28, 2021, respectively, the Sponsor surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which, the Sponsor holds 4,312,500 Founder Shares. On March 29, 2022, the Sponsor further surrendered and forfeited to the Company 1,437,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which the Sponsor holds 2,875,000 Founder Shares. As a result of these surrender and forfeiture of Founder Shares, the per share price increased to approximately $0.009 per share. On March 30, 2022, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 177,439 of its Founder Shares to the Company’s independent director nominees and advisory board member, for their board and advisory services, in each case for no cash consideration, including 20,000 shares to each of Kwan Sun, Robert Ewing and Ning Ma, 50,000 shares to Kenneth W. Hitchner and 67,439 shares to Dr. Zhiwei Liu, respectively. On May 2, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, resulting in 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture, so that the number of Founder Shares outstanding as of September 30, 2023 was 2,875,000 and the Sponsor holds 2,697,561 Founder Shares.

The Company’s initial shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the initial business combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the initial business combination that results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the initial shareholders with respect to any Founder Shares (the “lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial business combination or (2) if the Company consummate a transaction after the initial business combination which results in the shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on April 27, 2022, the effective date of the Company’s registration statement for IPO, the Company shall pay to the Sponsor $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and administrative services provided to members of the Company’s management team. Upon completion of the initial business combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred $45,000 and $135,000 in fees for these services, respectively, and such amount is included in due to Sponsor in the accompanying balance sheets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred $45,000 and $76,548 in fees for these services, respectively, and such amount is included in due to Sponsor in the accompanying balance sheets.

Promissory Note — Related Party

Related Party Loans

In order to finance working capital deficit or to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes its initial business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The terms of such warrants would be identical to those of the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

In addition, $0.35 per unit, or approximately $4,025,000 in the aggregate, will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions.

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Preference Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 5,000,000 preference shares at par value of $0.0001 each. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at par value of $0.0001 each. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding, excluding 8,437,681 and 11,500,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, respectively.

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial business combination, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by public shareholders), including the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial business combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans; provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

Holders of record of the Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Unless specified in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or as required by the Companies Act or stock exchange rules, an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company is generally required to approve any matter voted on by the shareholders. Approval of certain actions require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, and pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, such actions include amending the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another company.

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (cont.)

The Company is to hold an Extraordinary Meeting on July 26, 2023 to seek shareholder approval, among other things, to amend the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to provide for the right of a holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares to convert into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis at any time before or concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the business combination at the election of the holder. See Note 1.

Warrants — As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the total number of Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants outstanding were 13,500,000 and 13,500,000, respectively. Each whole warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities, for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial business combination on the date of the consummation of the initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A ordinary shares during the 10-trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial business combination (such price, the “Market Value”) of the Class A ordinary shares is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The warrants cannot be exercised until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination, and will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years after the completion of the initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen business days after the closing of the initial business combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth business day after the closing of the initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, the Company will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) less the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the average reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to

the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent or on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, as applicable. In no event will the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 Class A ordinary shares per warrant (subject to adjustment).

Redemption of Warrants

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

• in whole and not in part;

• at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

• upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

NOTE 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed financial statements.

On October 25, 2023, the Company issued a non-interest bearing non-convertible unsecured promissory note (the “October 2023 Note”) to the Sponsor, for a principal amount of up to $350,000. The Company may draw down up to $150,000 under the October 2023 Note to pay the Extension Contribution and up to $200,000 for general corporate purposes. The entire unpaid principal balance of the October 2023 Note shall be due and payable on the effective date of an initial Business Combination, unless accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the October 2023 Note). Up to the date that the condensed financial statements were issued, no amount was outstanding under the October 2023 Note.

On November 1, 2023, the board of the directors of the Company approved to extend the Termination Date to December 2, 2023, and authorized each of the chairman of the board, the chief executive officer, and the chief financial officer of the Company, if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination on or before December 2, 2023, to approve the further extension of the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, for up to five times by an additional one month each time, prior to the last day of such extended month, until May 2, 2024. The Company will make the first tranche of Second-Phase Extension Contribution shortly after the condensed financial statements are issued.

(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss)/income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

1. Organization and principal activities

TAIWAN COLOR OPTICS, INC. (“TCO INC.”) was established in October 2009 in Republic of China (R.O.C.). The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and sales of laser module and its components.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the Company and each of the following entity:

Entity		Date of Incorporation		Place of Incorporation		% of Ownership		Major business activities
Taiwan Color Optics Inc		October 19, 1999		Taiwan		100%		Sales of laser module and its components

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below.

(b) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TCO INC. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include lower of cost and net realizable value of inventory, recoverability of receivables, valuation of deferred tax assets,net, and assessment for impairment of long-lived assets, useful lives and residual values of long-lived assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

(d) Foreign currency translation

The financial statements of each individual consolidated entity were expressed in the currency which reflected its primary economic environment (functional currency). The functional currency of the Company and presentation currency of the consolidated financial statements are both New Taiwan Dollars (NT$). In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the operating results and financial positions of each consolidated entity are translated into NT$.

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the year except for exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated. For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into NT$ using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

(e) Convenience translation

The Company maintains its accounts and express its consolidated financial statements in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. For convenience only, U.S. dollar amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated from New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate as set forth in the statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the Unites States, which was NT$30.71 to US$1.00 as of December 31, 2022. The convenience translations should not be construed as representations that the New Taiwan dollar amounts have been, could have been, or could in the future be, converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange.

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash equivalents, for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments, consist of highly liquid time deposits and investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(g) Restricted cash

Cash that are restricted as to withdrawal for use or pledged as security is reported separately as restricted cash, and that are restricted as to withdrawal or use for other than current operations is classified as non-current. The restricted cash represents time deposits that secures the Company’s short-term borrowings.

(h) Accounts receivable, net

Accounts receivable, net, include amounts billed and currently due from customers. The amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value.

Provision for doubtful accounts is recognized when reasonable and supportable forecasts affect the expected collectability. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. The Company considers many factors in assessing the collectability such as the age of the amounts due, consideration of historical loss experience, adjusted for current conditions, forward-looking indicators, trends in customer payment frequency. The Company established standards and policies for reviewing major account exposures and concentrations of risk. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2021 and 2022 was NT$23 and NT$276, respectively.

(i) Prepayment and other assets

Prepayment and other assets represent amounts that the Company has paid in advance of receiving benefits or services. Prepayment and other assets include amounts for prepayments to suppliers, prepaid expenses and prepaid insurance premiums and are recognized as an expense over the general contractual period.

(j) Inventories

(k) Fair value measurement

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

• Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices, in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical asset or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

• Level 3 applies to asset or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepayments and other current assets, short-term borrowings, accounts payables, other payables and other liabilities approximates fair value because of their short-term nature.

Accounting guidance also describes three main approaches to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates.

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

(l) Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives and estimated residual values of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of these assets are generally as follows:

Category		Estimated useful life
Machinery equipment		3 – 8 years
Other equipment		3 – 8 years
Leasehold improvements		Over the shorter of lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets

Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expenses as incurred, whereas the costs of renewals and betterment that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Gains and losses from the disposal of property and equipment are the differences between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amounts of the relevant assets and are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss)/income.

Construction in process records the cost of construction work, which is not yet completed. A construction in process item is not depreciated until the asset is placed in service. Depreciation is recorded starting at the time when assets are ready for the intended use.

(m) Leases

For a contract that contains a lease component and non-lease component, the Company may elect to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

The Company as lessee

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Lease (FASB ASC Topic 842). ASC 842 requires that lessees recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities calculated based on the present value of lease payments for all lease agreements with terms that are greater than twelve months.

Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use underlying assets including vehicles and production equipment for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.

The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The right-of-use of asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received. The Company has both operating lease and finance lease. For operating lease, lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The amortization of the right-of-use asset is calculated as the difference between the straight-line lease expense and the interest calculated on the lease liability.

Lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise fixed lease payments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and any exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. It is re-measured when there is a change in future lease payments, if there is a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if there is any change in the Company assessment of option purchases, contract extensions or termination options.

(n) Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will affect the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Company evaluates the impairment for the long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. No impairment charge was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022.

(o) Borrowings

Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings. Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds net of transaction costs and the redemption value is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

(p) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized based on the requirements of ASC Topic 606 when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized when the following five-step revenue recognition criteria are met:

1) Identify the contract with a customer

2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract

3) Determine the transaction price

4) Allocate the transaction price

5) Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation

The following table identifies the disaggregation of the Company’s revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2021	2022
Sale of laser diode modules and related components	124,816	97,587
Others	1,317	4,851

China	105,432	75,246
Germany	12,979	14,926
Others	3,201	2,260
Total	126,133	102,438

Sale of laser diode modules and related components

The Company mainly engages in the manufacturing and sale of laser diode modules and related components. The consideration is fixed and the revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring promised product to a customer upon acceptance by customers.

Contract assets and liabilities

The Company applies the practical expedient in Topic 606 that permits the recognition of incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of such costs is one year or less. These costs are included in cost of revenues if any.

Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit. Contract assets are recognized for in related accounts receivable.

Other than accounts receivable, the Company had no other material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

(p) Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of cost of products, labor cost, depreciation, maintenance, and other overhead expenses.

(q) Research and development expenses

Research and development costs include personnel-related expenses associated with the Company’s engineering personnel responsible for the design, development and testing of its products. Such costs related to product development are included in research and development expense until the technological feasibility is reached, which is generally shortly before the products are released to production. Research and development costs are charged to the consolidated statements of operations as incurred.

(r) Taxation

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities. The Company offset deferred tax assets and liabilities within a jurisdiction.

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

The Company did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its provision for income taxes line of its consolidated statements of (loss) income for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively.

The Company does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

(s) Government subsidies

Government subsidies are recognized as other income when received and all the conditions for their receipt have been met. The government subsidies were paid by cash and have no defined rules and regulations to govern the criteria necessary for the Group to enjoy the benefits.

(t) Non-controlling Interest

A non-controlling interest in a subsidiary of the Company represents the portion of the equity (net assets) in the subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets and net (loss)/income and other comprehensive loss attributable to non-controlling shareholders are presented as a separate component on the consolidated statements of operations.

(u) (Loss) income per share

The Company computes basic (loss)/income per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share” by dividing the net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, as adjusted for the effect of dilutive ordinary equivalent shares, if any, by the weighted average number of ordinary and dilutive ordinary equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Ordinary equivalent shares consist of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of share options using the treasury stock method. Ordinary equivalent shares are not included in the denominator of the diluted loss per share calculation when inclusion of such share would be anti-dilutive.

(v) Recently issued accounting pronouncements

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)”, which will require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. Further, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, ASU 2020-05, ASU 2020-10, ASU 2020-11, ASU 2021-02 and ASU 2022-02 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. For all other entities, the amendments for ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is on a modified retrospective basis. The Company expects the impact of adoption of this ASU was immaterial to its financial statements.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements”, which amends certain provisions of ASC 842 that apply to arrangements between related parties under common control. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities. ASU 2023-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any annual or interim period as of the beginning of the related fiscal year. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-01 from January 1, 2024. The Company expects the impact of adoption of this ASU was immaterial to its financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent standards that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

3. Certain risks and concentration

The Company’s financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, accounts receivables and amount due from related parties. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, substantially all the Company’s cash were held in major financial institutions located in the R.O.C., which management considers to being of high credit quality. For accounts receivable, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without requiring collateral or other security. Further, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual receivable at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate allowances are made for doubtful accounts.

The top customers whose revenues individually represented greater than 10% of the total net revenues of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022 were as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2021		2022
Customer A	69.9	%	39.1	%
Customer B	*		18.9	%
Customer C	10.3	%	14.6	%

____________

* less than 10% of total revenue

Accounts receivable due from customers who represent 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable were as follows:

	As of December 31,
	2021		2022
Customer A	57.9	%	38.2	%
Customer B	*	%	25.4	%

4. Disposal of subsidiaries

In July 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to dispose of all its interest in Optonomous Technologies Inc. (75.00%) (“OPI”) and Taiwan Color Optics Technologies, Ltd. (24.69%) (“TCOT”) to a third-party individual, with net consideration of NT$0.001 and NT$100 in cash, respectively. The disposal of subsidiaries resulted in a loss of NT$5,118 recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss)/income in the caption of “other (loss) gains, net” for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The disposal of OPI was not a strategic shift of the Company’s business, while the disposal of TCOT was a strategic shift of the Company’s business. However, since TCO INC. only controlled 24.69% of TCOT’s equity interest before disposal, and the proportion of TCOT’s total assets and revenue as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 accounted for less than 10% of that the Company’s, the disposal of TCOT would not have major impact on the Company’s business. Therefore, the disposal of OPI and TCOT was not qualified as discontinued operation.

The reconciliation of loss on disposal of subsidiaries are as follows: Accumulated other comprehensive loss

	As of July 1, 2022
	(unaudited)
Total consideration received	NT$ 100
Net liabilities of subsidiaries attributed to the Company	(3,779	)

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022.

In the opinion of the management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

(b) Principles of consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

2. Summary of Significant accounting policies (cont.)

Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include lower of cost and net realizable value of inventory, recoverability of receivables, valuation of deferred tax assets, net, and assessment for impairment of long-lived assets, useful lives and residual values of long-lived assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

(d) Foreign currency translation

In preparing the financial statements of each individual consolidated entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the year except for exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated.

For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into NT$ using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

(e) Convenience translation

The Company maintains its accounts and express its consolidated financial statements in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. For convenience only, U.S. dollar amounts presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been translated from New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate as set forth in the statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the Unites States, which was NT$32.24 to US$1.00 as of September 30, 2023. The convenience translations should not be construed as representations that the New Taiwan dollar amounts have been, could have been, or could in the future be, converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange.

(f) Deferred offering costs

Deferred offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the business combination among Chenghe Acquisition Co., Semilux International Ltd., SEMILUX LTD., and TCO INC. These costs, together with the underwriting discounts and commissions, will be charged to temporary equity and permanent equity upon completion of the proposed public offering. Should the proposed public offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses to be incurred, will be charged to operations. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has incurred NT$15,020 of deferred offering costs.

The Company Parties also agree to use their best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the Transactions and the TCO Restructuring, and the Company Parties shall furnish all information concerning the Company Parties or their respective shareholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

(iii) Each of SPAC and the Company Parties shall ensure that none of the information supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (A) the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC, at each time at which it is amended and at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading or (B) the Proxy Statement will not, at the date it is first mailed to the SPAC Shareholders and at the time of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

(iv) If, at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time, any information relating to the Company Parties, SPAC or any of their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors or officers is discovered by the Company Parties or SPAC, which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, so that neither of such documents would include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, with respect to the Proxy Statement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the SPAC Shareholders.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to, but not after, obtaining the SPAC Shareholder Approval, solely in response to an Intervening Event, the SPAC Board may fail to make, amend, change, withdraw, modify, withhold or qualify the SPAC Board Recommendation (any such action, a “Change in Recommendation”) if the SPAC Board shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that, in response to such Intervening Event, a failure to make a Change in Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the SPAC Board will not be entitled to make, or agree or resolve to make, a Change in Recommendation until (a) SPAC delivers to the Company a written notice (an “SPAC Intervening Event Notice”) advising the Company that the SPAC Board proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the SPAC Board’s determination that an Intervening Event has occurred, (b) until 5:00 p.m., Hong Kong time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the day on which SPAC delivered the SPAC Intervening Event Notice (such period from the time the SPAC Intervening Event Notice is provided until 5:00 p.m. Hong Kong time on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the day on which SPAC delivered the SPAC Intervening Event Notice, the “SPAC Intervening Event Notice Period”), SPAC and its Representatives shall have negotiated in good faith with the Company and its Representatives regarding any revisions or adjustments proposed by the Company during the SPAC Intervening Event Notice Period to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable SPAC to proceed with its recommendation of this Agreement and the Transactions and not make such Change in Recommendation, and (c) if the Company requested negotiations in accordance with the foregoing clause (b), SPAC may make a Change in Recommendation only if the SPAC Board, after considering in good faith any revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Company shall have,

prior to the expiration of the five (5)-Business Day period, offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding Contract if accepted by SPAC (and the other applicable parties hereto), reaffirms in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Change in Recommendation would violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(iii) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (x) SPAC agrees to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and submit for approval the SPAC Transaction Proposals and (y) SPAC agrees that if the SPAC Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at any such SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, then SPAC shall promptly continue to take all such necessary actions, including the actions required by this Section 7.8(b), and hold additional SPAC Shareholders’ Meetings in order to obtain the SPAC Shareholder Approval. SPAC may only adjourn the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (i) to solicit additional proxies for the purpose of obtaining the SPAC Shareholder Approval, (ii) for the absence of a quorum (either in person or by proxy), (iii) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus that SPAC or the Company reasonably determines is necessary to comply with applicable Laws, is provided to the SPAC Shareholders in advance of a vote on the adoption of SPAC Transaction Proposals, (iv) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that SPAC has determined in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel is required under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by SPAC Shareholders prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, (v) in order to seek withdrawals from SPAC Shareholders who have exercised their SPAC Shareholder Redemption right if a number of SPAC Ordinary Shares have been elected to be redeemed such that SPAC reasonably expects that the condition set forth in Section 8.3 will not be satisfied at the Closing, and (vi) to comply with applicable Law; provided, that the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (x) may not be adjourned to a date that is more than fifteen (15) days after the date for which the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments required by applicable Law) and (y) shall not be held later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Agreement End Date. SPAC agrees that it shall provide the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares the opportunity to elect redemption of such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, as required by SPAC’s Governing Documents.

The cost of the D&O Tail shall be borne by the Company.

(c) The rights of the SPAC Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such person may have under CayCo’s Governing Documents, any other indemnification arrangement, applicable Law or otherwise. The obligations of CayCo and the Company under this Section 7.14 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any SPAC Indemnified Parties without the consent of such SPAC Indemnified Parties. The provisions of this Section 7.14 shall survive the Closing indefinitely and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the SPAC Indemnified Parties, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.14.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.14 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on CayCo and the Company and all successors and assigns of CayCo and the Company. In the event that CayCo or the Company or any of their successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, CayCo and the Company shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of CayCo and the Company shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.14.

(e) On the Closing Date, CayCo shall enter into customary indemnification agreements reasonably satisfactory to each of the Company and SPAC with the post-Closing directors and officers of CayCo, which indemnification agreements shall continue to be effective following the Closing.

Article 2
REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

2.1 Resale Shelf Registration Rights.

2.1.1 Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. Within thirty (30) calendar days following the Closing Date, CayCo shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Commission, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-1 (the “Form F-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-3 (the “Form F-3 Shelf”, together with the Form F-1 Shelf, the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”, as the case may be), if CayCo is then eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf, in each case, for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing). CayCo shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing, but no later than the earlier of (a) the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the filing date hereof if the Commission notifies CayCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement, and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date CayCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, and once effective, to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act at all times until the expiration of the Effectiveness Period. In the event CayCo files a Form F-1 Shelf, CayCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form F-1 Shelf (and any subsequent Resale Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form F-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after CayCo is eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf. CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.1, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.

2.1.2 Notification and Distribution of Materials. CayCo shall notify the Holders in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.

2.1.3 Amendments and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1 above, CayCo shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith, as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act, with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period. If a Resale Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable (a) cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement), (b) amend such Resale Shelf Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement, or (c) prepare and file an additional Resale Shelf Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Shelf”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf is filed pursuant to this Section 2.1.3, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, and (b) keep such Subsequent Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf shall be on Form F-3 to the extent that CayCo is eligible to use such form, and shall be an automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act if CayCo is a well-known, seasoned issuer as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date. CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.3, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.

2.1.4 Change in Registration. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission informs CayCo that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement,

Annex A-75

Table of Contents

CayCo agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form F-3 or such other form available, to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, CayCo shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available, written or oral guidance; comments; requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”), including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that CayCo used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis, based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, and subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event that CayCo amends the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, CayCo will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to CayCo or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3 or such other form available, to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

2.1.5 Notice of Certain Events. CayCo shall promptly notify the Holders in writing of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to, or additional information in connection with, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement required to be prepared and filed hereunder (or Prospectus relating thereto). CayCo shall promptly notify each Holder, in writing, of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or any Prospectus, amendment or supplement related thereto, or any post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, and of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment.

(a) If CayCo shall receive a request from the holders of Registrable Securities with an estimated market value of at least US$10 million (the requesting holder(s) shall be referred to herein as the (“Requesting Holder”)) that CayCo effect the Underwritten Takedown of all or any portion of the Requesting Holder’s Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition thereof, then CayCo shall promptly give notice of such requested, Underwritten Takedown (each such request shall be referred to herein as a (“Demand Takedown”)) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the prospectus or supplement relating to such Demand Takedown to the other Holders, and thereupon shall use its reasonable, best efforts to effect, as expeditiously as possible, the offering in such Underwritten Takedown of:

(i) subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting Holder has requested such offering under Section 2.1.5(a), and

(ii) subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all other Registrable Securities that any holders of Registrable Securities (all such holders, together with the Requesting Holder, the “Selling Holders”) have requested CayCo to offer by request, received by CayCo within seven (7) Business Days after such holders receive CayCo’s notice of the Demand Takedown, all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be offered.

(b) Promptly after the expiration of the seven (7)-Business Day-period referred to in Section 2.1.5(a)(ii), CayCo will notify all Selling Holders of the identities of the other Selling Holders and the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein.

(c) CayCo shall only be required to effectuate no more than three (3) Underwritten Takedowns in any twelve (12)-month period, after giving effect to Section 2.2.1.

(d) If the managing underwriter in an Underwritten Takedown advises CayCo and the Requesting Holder(s) that, in its view, the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering exceeds the largest number of shares that can be sold without having an adverse

effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold, the shares included in such Underwritten Takedown will be reduced by the Registrable Securities held by the Selling Holders (applied on a pro rata basis, based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders).

2.1.6 Selection of Underwriters. The initiating Selling Holders shall have the right to select an Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such Underwritten Takedown, which Underwriter or Underwriters selected shall be reasonably acceptable to CayCo. In connection with an Underwritten Takedown, CayCo shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown, including, if necessary, the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.

2.1.7 Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2.

2.1.8 Block Trades. If a Demanding Holder wishes to consummate a Block Trade (on either a Commission registered or non-registered basis), then notwithstanding the time periods and piggyback rights otherwise provided herein, such Demanding Holder shall, if it would like the assistance of CayCo, endeavor to give CayCo sufficient advance notice in order to prepare the appropriate documentation for such transaction. Such Demanding Holder, if requesting a Commission registered underwritten Block Trade, (1) shall give CayCo written notice of the transaction and the anticipated launch date of the transaction at least two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated launch date of the transaction, (2) CayCo shall be required to only notify the other Demanding Holders of the transaction and none of the other Holders, (3) the other Demanding Holders shall have one (1) Business Day prior to the launch of the transaction to determine if they wish to participate in the Block Trade, and (4) CayCo shall include in the Block Trade only shares held by the Demanding Holders. Any Registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.1.8 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2, but shall be deemed an Underwritten Takedown, and within the cap on Underwritten Takedowns provided in Section 2.1.5(c). The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable, nationally recognized investment banks).

2.2 Demand Registration.

2.2.1 Request for Registration. At any time, and from time to time after the Merger Effective Time, if any, (i) the SPAC Holders who hold at least fifteen per cent (15%) of the Registrable Securities held by all SPAC Holders or (ii) Company Holders who hold US$20 million of the Registrable Securities held by all Company Holders, as the case may be, may make a written demand for Registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form F-1 or any similar, long-form Registration or, if then available, on Form F-3. Each registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 is referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”. Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. CayCo will, within five (5) days of its receipt of the Demand Registration, notify all Holders that are holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each such holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify CayCo within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from CayCo. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.2.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. CayCo shall not be obligated to effect: (a) more than one (1) Demand Registration during any six (6)-month period; (b) any Demand Registration at any time there is an effective Resale Shelf Registration Statement on file with the Commission pursuant to Section 2.1; (c) more than four (4) Underwritten Demand Registrations in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the SPAC Holders, provided that if the Registrable Securities sought to be included in the Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 are not fully included in such Registration for any reason other than solely due to the action or inaction of the Holders including Registrable Securities in such Registration, such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one of the Registration rights granted pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 or (d) more than four (4) Underwritten Demand Registrations in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the Holders, provided that if the Registrable Securities sought to be included in the Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 are not fully included in such Registration for any reason

Annex A-77

Table of Contents

other than solely due to the action or inaction of the Holders, including Registrable Securities, in such Registration, then such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one of the Registration rights granted pursuant to this Section 2.2.1.

2.2.2 Effective Registration. A Registration will not count as a Demand Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) CayCo has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that CayCo shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated.

2.2.3 Underwritten Offering. If the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise CayCo as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering with an estimated market value of at least US$10 million. In such an event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting, and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by the holders initiating the Demand Registration, and subject to the approval of CayCo, provided that such approval shall not be withheld by CayCo unreasonably.

2.2.4 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises CayCo and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities which CayCo desires to sell and CayCo Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of CayCo who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the (“Maximum Number of Shares”)), then CayCo shall include in such registration: (i) the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, as to which “piggy-back” registration has been requested by the holders thereof, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.2.5 Withdrawal. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to CayCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then either the Demanding Holders shall reimburse CayCo for the costs associated with the withdrawn registration (in which case such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.2) or the withdrawn registration shall count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.2.

2.3 Piggy-Back Registration.

2.3.1 Piggy-Back Rights. If CayCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by CayCo for its own account or for shareholders of CayCo for their account (or by CayCo and by shareholders of CayCo) including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1, other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to CayCo’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of CayCo, (iv) filed on Form F-4, related to any merger, acquisition or business combination, (v) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (vi) filed in connection with a Block Trade by one or more holders of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 2.1.8, then CayCo shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). CayCo shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggy-Back Registration and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of CayCo, and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.

2.3.2 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises CayCo and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of CayCo Ordinary Shares which CayCo desires to sell, taken together with CayCo Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder and the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.3, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then CayCo shall include in any such registration:

(a) If the Registration is undertaken for CayCo’s account: (i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, Pro Rata; and (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and

(b) If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of Persons other than either the holders of Registrable Securities, (i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iv) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register, pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.3.3 Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to CayCo of such request to withdraw, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. CayCo (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, CayCo shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration, as provided in Section 3.3.

2.3.4 Unlimited Piggy-Back Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof, and there shall be no limit on the number of Piggy-Back Registrations.

Article 3
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

3.1 Filings; Information. Whenever CayCo is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Article 2 or effecting an underwritten Block Trade, CayCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

3.1.1 Filing Registration Statement.

CayCo shall promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment prepared in connection with the immediate preceding proviso; provided that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, CayCo shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon.

3.1.6 Securities Laws Compliance. CayCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” Laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of CayCo and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that CayCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.

CayCo shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. The representations, warranties and covenants of CayCo in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement, and the representations, warranties and covenants of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of CayCo.

3.1.9 Opinions.

3.1.13 Listing. CayCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by CayCo are then listed or designated.

Each Holder agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders); provided that, such agreement shall not be materially more restrictive than any similar agreement entered into by the directors and executive officers of CayCo participating in such underwritten offering; provided, further, that such agreement shall provide that any early release of any Holder from the provisions of the terms of such agreement shall be on a pro rata basis among all Holders.

3.2 Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from CayCo of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.5, or, upon any suspension by CayCo, pursuant to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the Board, of the ability of all “insiders” covered by such program to transact in CayCo’s securities because of the existence of material non-public information, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities, pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.5 or the restriction on the ability of “insiders” to transact in CayCo’s securities is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed by CayCo, each such holder will deliver to CayCo all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.

Article 4
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

4.1 Indemnification by CayCo. CayCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and each other holder of Registrable Securities, and each of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls an Holder and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, a “Holder Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by CayCo of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to CayCo and relating to action or inaction required of CayCo in connection with any such registration; and CayCo shall promptly reimburse the Holder Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Holder Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or Action; provided, however, that CayCo will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to CayCo, in writing, by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s violation of the federal securities Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the prospectus.

4.2 Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling Holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling Holder, indemnify and hold harmless CayCo, each of its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder and each other Person, if any, who controls another selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or Actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to CayCo by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s violation of the federal securities Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the prospectus, and shall reimburse CayCo, its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or Action. Each selling Holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling Holder.

4.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any Action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, such Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other Person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other Person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or Action; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have

Annex A-83

Table of Contents

to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or Action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or Action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or Action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any Action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling Persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

4.4 Contribution.

4.4.1 If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or Action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or Action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

4.4.2 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

4.4.3 The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Accordingly, each Sponsor Party covenants and agrees with CayCo that it will not (and will cause its respective controlled affiliates and representatives not to) at any time, except with the prior written consent of CayCo, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information known to it to any third party, unless (a) such information becomes known to the public through no fault of such party, (b) disclosure is required by applicable Law (including any filing following the Closing with the Commission pursuant to applicable securities Laws) or court of competent jurisdiction or requested by a governmental or regulatory authority; provided that, (other than in the case of any required filing following the Closing with the Commission, or in connection with any routine audit or examination as described below) such Sponsor Party promptly notifies CayCo of such requirement or request, and takes commercially reasonable steps, at the sole cost and expense of CayCo, to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure, (c) such information was available or becomes available to such Sponsor Party before, on or after the Closing, without restriction, from a source (other than CayCo) without any breach of duty to CayCo or (d) such information was independently developed by such Sponsor Party, its affiliates or its representatives without the use of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing

Annex A-86

in this Agreement shall prohibit any Sponsor Party from disclosing Confidential Information (x) to any affiliate or representative of such Sponsor Party, or any limited partner, member or shareholder of any of the foregoing, provided that, such Person shall be bound by an obligation of confidentiality with respect to such Confidential Information, and such Sponsor Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 6.3 by any such Person, or (y) if such disclosure is made to a governmental or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Sponsor Party in connection with a routine audit or examination that is not specifically directed at CayCo or the Confidential Information, provided that, such Sponsor Party shall request that confidential treatment be accorded to any information so disclosed. No Confidential Information shall be deemed to be provided to any Person, including any affiliate of the Sponsor Parties unless such Confidential Information is actually provided to such Person.

6.4 Other Business Opportunities.

6.4.1 The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa), or (c) any of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) and the director nominees of the foregoing) has the right to, and shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) not to, directly or indirectly engage in and possess interests in other business ventures of every type and description, including those engaged in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or deemed to be competing with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, on its own account, or in partnership with, or as an employee, officer, director or shareholder of any other Person, with no obligation to offer to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo the right to participate therein; (ii) the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) and the director nominees of the foregoing) may invest in, or provide services to, any Person that directly or indirectly competes with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries; and (iii) in the event that the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) or any director nominee of the foregoing, respectively) acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate or other business opportunity for CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, such Person shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo, as the case may be, and, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shall not be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo (or its respective affiliates) for breach of any duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) by reason of the fact that such Person, directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person or does not present such opportunity to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo (or its respective affiliates). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that this paragraph is intended to disclaim and renounce, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any Holder, with respect to the matters set forth herein, and this paragraph shall be construed to effect such disclaimer and renunciation to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

Annex A-87

(c) waives any claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor and any of its affiliates, and any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of any such Person that may from time to time arise in respect of a breach by any such Person of any duty or obligation disclaimed under this Section 6.4.

6.4.3 Each of the parties hereto agrees that the waivers, limitations, acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Section 6.4 shall not apply to any alleged claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor, based upon the breach or non-performance by such Person of this Agreement or any other agreement to which such Person is a party.

6.4.4 The provisions of this Section 6.4, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of any of the Sponsor or its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

6.5 Indemnification; Exculpation.

6.5.1 As an inducement for the Sponsor to enter into this Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, subject in each case to restrictions under applicable Law, CayCo will, and CayCo will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally indemnify, exonerate and hold the Sponsor and its direct and indirect partners, equityholders, members, managers, affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees, representatives and agents and each of the partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Sponsor Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all Actions, liabilities, losses, damages and costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Sponsor Indemnitees or any of them before or after the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), arising out of any Action arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, (i) any Sponsor’s or its affiliates’ ownership of equity securities of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or control of or ability to influence CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any breach of this Agreement by such Sponsor Indemnitee or its affiliates or other related Persons or, subject to applicable Law, the breach of any fiduciary or other duty or obligation of such Sponsor Indemnitee to its direct or indirect equityholders, creditors or affiliates, (y) to the extent such control or the ability to control CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries derives from such Sponsor’s or its affiliates’ capacity as an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or (z) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are directly caused by such Person’s willful misconduct), (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any services provided prior to, on or after the date of this Agreement by any Sponsor or its affiliates to CayCo any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, CayCo will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable Law. For the purposes of this Section 6.5, none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such limitation is so determined to apply to any Sponsor Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Sponsor Indemnitee to CayCo and its Subsidiaries. The rights of any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the Governing Documents of CayCo or its Subsidiaries.

6.5.2 CayCo will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Sponsor Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Sponsor Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Sponsor Indemnitee is a party thereto. CayCo or its Subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which a Sponsor Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, may, without the consent of such Sponsor Indemnitee, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, if and only if, it (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Sponsor Indemnitee of an unconditional release from

Annex A-88

Table of Contents

all liability with respect to such Action, (ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Sponsor Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Sponsor Indemnitee, and provided that, the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by CayCo or its Subsidiaries.

6.5.3 CayCo acknowledges and agrees that CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as defined below), pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of (i) CayCo’s Governing Documents, each as amended, (ii) any director indemnification agreement, (iii) this Agreement, any other agreement between CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates) pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, (v) the Laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Subsidiary of CayCo, and/or (vi) the Governing Documents of CayCo’s Subsidiaries ((i) through (vi) above, collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates) may have from any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than CayCo, any of its Subsidiaries or the insurer under and pursuant to any insurance policy of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries) from whom such Sponsor Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification with respect to which, in whole or in part, CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries may also have an indemnification obligation (collectively, the “Indemnitee-Related Entities”). Under no circumstance shall CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related Entities and no right of advancement or recovery any Sponsor Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of such Sponsor Indemnitee or the obligations of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries under the Indemnification Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of indemnification with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Sponsor Indemnitee against CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (z) such Sponsor Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. Each party hereto agree that each of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 6.5, entitled to enforce this Section 6.5.3 as though each such Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party to this Agreement. CayCo shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 6.5.3 as though each such Subsidiary were a party to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 6.5.3, the term (“Jointly Indemnifiable Claims”) shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which any Sponsor Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Indemnification Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Entity pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Entity and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates), pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, the Laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Entity and/or the Governing Documents of any Indemnitee-Related Entity, on the other hand.

6.5.4 In no event shall any Sponsor Indemnitee be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries for any act, alleged act, omission or alleged omission that does not constitute willful misconduct or fraud of such Sponsor Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.

6.5.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of this Section 6.5, the term Sponsor Indemnitees shall not include any Sponsor or its any of its partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents or any of the partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing who is an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries in such capacity as officer or director. Such officers and directors are or will be subject to separate indemnification in such capacity through this Agreement and/or the Governing Documents and other agreements and instruments of CayCo and its Subsidiaries (including as contemplated in Section 6.1).

Annex A-89

6.5.6 The rights of any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.5 will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other section of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the Governing Documents of CayCo and its Subsidiaries.

If any of the Shares included in the certificate so given up shall be retained by the transferor a new certificate for the balance shall be issued to him at the aforesaid fee payable by the transferor to the Company in respect thereof.

(2) The fee referred to in paragraph (1) above shall be an amount not exceeding the relevant maximum amount as the Designated Stock Exchange may from time to time determine provided that the Board may at any time determine a lower amount for such fee.

23. If a share certificate shall be damaged or defaced or alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, a new certificate representing the same Shares may be issued to the relevant Member upon request, subject to delivery up of the old certificate or (if alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed) compliance with such conditions as to evidence and indemnity and the payment of out-of-pocket expenses of the Company in connection with the request as the Directors may think fit.

REDEMPTION

24. Subject to the provisions of the Statute and these Articles, the Company may:

(f). issue Shares that are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Member or the Company. The redemption of Shares shall be effected in such manner and upon such terms as may be determined, before the issue of such Shares, by the Board;

(g). purchase its own Shares (including any redeemable Shares) in such manner and upon such terms as have been approved by the Board, or are otherwise authorized by these Articles; and

(h). make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares in any manner permitted by the Statute, including out of capital.

25. The purchase of any Share shall not oblige the Company to purchase any other Share other than as may be required pursuant to applicable Law and any other contractual obligations of the Company.

26. The holder of the Shares being purchased shall be bound to deliver up to the Company the certificate(s) (if any) thereof for cancellation and thereupon the Company shall pay to him the purchase or redemption monies or consideration in respect thereof.

27. The Directors may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid Share.

TREASURY SHARES

28. The Directors may, prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of any Share, determine that such Share shall be held as a treasury share. The Directors may determine to cancel a treasury share or transfer a treasury share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation, for nil consideration).

NON RECOGNITION OF TRUSTS

29. The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognize in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by these Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder.

Annex A-128

Table of Contents

LIEN ON SHARES

30. The Company shall have a first and paramount Lien on all Shares (whether fully paid- up or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or his estate, either alone or jointly with any other Person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s Lien thereon. The Company’s Lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

31. The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a Lien, if a sum in respect of which the Lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within fourteen (14) calendar days after notice has been given to the holder of the Shares, or to the Person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

32. To give effect to any such sale, the Directors may authorize any Person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or his nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company’s power of sale under these Articles.

33. The net proceeds of such sale after deduction of expenses, fees and commission incurred by the Company shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the Lien exists as is presently payable and any residue shall (subject to a like Lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the Person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

CALLS ON SHARES

34. Subject to these Articles and the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may from time to time make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies due and payable but unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by installments. A Person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

35. A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorizing such call was passed.

36. The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

37. If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the Person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine, but the Directors may waive payment of the interest in whole or in part.

38. An amount payable in respect of a Share on allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and, if it is not paid, all the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

39. The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.

40. The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance. No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a dividend declared in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.

Annex A-129

Table of Contents

FORFEITURE OF SHARES

41. If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the Directors may give to the Person from whom it is due not less than fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest, which may have accrued. The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with, the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

42. If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all dividends or other monies declared payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

43. A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any Person, the Directors may authorize some Person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favor of that Person.

44. A Person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by him in respect of those Shares.

45. A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director of the Company that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the fact as against all Persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the Person to whom the Share is disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

46. The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

47. Subject to these Articles, any Member may transfer all or any of his Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the Designated Stock Exchange or in any other form approved by the Board and may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee is a clearing house or a central depository house or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the Board may approve from time to time.

48. The instrument of transfer of any Share shall be in writing and in any usual or common form or such other form as the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, approve and be executed by or on behalf of the transferor and if in respect of a nil or partly paid up Share, or if so required by the Directors, shall also be executed on behalf of the transferee and shall be accompanied by the certificate (if any) of the Shares to which it relates and such other evidence as the Directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer. The transferor shall be deemed to remain a Member until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register of Members in respect of the relevant Shares.

49. The Board may, in its absolute discretion, and without giving any reason therefor, refuse to register a transfer of any Share (not being a fully paid up share) to a Person of whom it does not approve, or any Share issued under any share incentive scheme for employees upon which a restriction on transfer imposed thereby still subsists.

50. The Directors may in their absolute discretion decline to register any transfer of Shares which is not fully paid up or on which the Company has a Lien. The Directors may also decline to register any transfer of any Share unless:

(a). the instrument of transfer is lodged with the Company, accompanied by the certificate for the Shares to which it relates and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer;

Annex A-130

Table of Contents

(b). the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one Class of Shares;

(c). the instrument of transfer is properly stamped, if required;

(d). in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the Share is to be transferred does not exceed four; and

(e). a fee of such maximum sum as the Designated Stock Exchange may determine to be payable, or such lesser sum as the Board of Directors may from time to time require, is paid to the Company in respect thereof.

51. The registration of transfers may, after compliance with any notice required by the Designated Stock Exchange Rules, be suspended and the Register of Members closed at such times and for such periods as the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, from time to time determine, provided always that such registration of transfer shall not be suspended nor the Register of Members closed for more than thirty (30) calendar days in any calendar year.

52. All instruments of transfer that are registered shall be retained by the Company. If the Directors refuse to register a transfer of any Shares, they shall within two calendar months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged with the Company send notice of the refusal to each of the transferor and the transferee.

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

53. If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors where he was a joint holder, and his legal Personal representatives where he was a sole holder, shall be the only Persons recognized by the Company as having any title to his interest. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, which had been jointly held by him. Any Person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time be required by the Directors, elect either to become the holder of the Share or to have some Person nominated by him as the transferee. If he elects to become the holder, he shall give notice to the Company to that effect, but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by that Member before the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of that Member, as the case may be.

54. If the Person so becoming entitled shall elect to be registered himself as holder, he shall deliver or send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating that he so elects.

55. A Person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the Share. However, he shall not, before being registered as a Member in respect of the Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such Person to elect either to be registered himself or to have some other Person nominated by him become the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of such Member or in any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within ninety (90) calendar days, the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

AMENDMENTS OF MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES AND ALTERATION OF CAPITAL

56. Subject to the provisions of the Statute and the provisions of these Articles, the Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution:

(a). increase the share capital by such sum, to be divided into Shares of such Classes and amount, as the resolution shall prescribe and with such rights, priorities and privileges annexed thereto, as the Company in general meeting may determine;

(b). consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into Shares of larger amount than its existing Shares;

Annex A-131

Table of Contents

(c). divide its Shares into several Classes and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of existing Shares attach thereto respectively any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges, conditions or such restrictions which in the absence of any such determination by the Company in general meeting, as the Directors may determine provided always that, for the avoidance of doubt, where a Class of Shares has been authorized by the Company, no resolution of the Company in general meeting is required for the issuance of Shares of that Class and the Directors may issue Shares of that Class and determine such rights, privileges, conditions or restrictions attaching thereto as aforesaid, and further provided that where the Company issues Shares which do not carry voting rights, the words “non-voting” shall appear in the designation of such Shares and where the equity capital includes Shares with different voting rights, the designation of each Class of Shares, other than those with the most favourable voting rights, must include the words “restricted voting” or “limited voting”;

(d). subdivide its Shares, or any of them, into Shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum or into Shares without par value (subject, nevertheless, to the Law), and may by such resolution determine that, as between the holders of the Shares resulting from such sub-division, one or more of the Shares may have any such preferred, deferred or other rights or be subject to any such restrictions as compared with the other or others as the Company has power to attach to unissued or new Shares; and

(e). cancel any Shares that at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any Person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the Shares so cancelled or, in the case of Shares, without par value, diminish the number of shares into which its capital is divided.

57. All new Shares created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject to the same provisions of these Articles with reference to the payment of calls, Liens, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the Shares in the original share capital. The Board may settle as it considers expedient any difficulty which arises in relation to any consolidation and division under the preceding Article and in particular but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing may arrange for the sale of the Shares representing fractions and the distribution of the net proceeds of sale (after deduction of the expenses of such sale) in due proportion amongst the Members who would have been entitled to the fractions, and for this purpose the Board may authorise some Person to transfer the Shares representing fractions to their purchaser or resolve that such net proceeds be paid to the Company for the Company’s benefit. Such purchaser will not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor will his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating to the sale.

58. Subject to the provisions of the Statute and the provisions of these Articles, the Company may from time to time by Special Resolution:

(a). change its name;

(b). alter, amend or add to these Articles;

(c). alter or add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein; and

(d). reduce its share capital and any capital redemption reserve fund in any manner authorized by Law.

SHARE RIGHTS

59. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, Designated Stock Exchange Rules, the Memorandum and these Articles and to any special rights conferred on the holders of any Shares or Class of Shares, any Share in the Company (whether forming part of the present capital or not) may be issued with or have attached thereto such rights or restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise as the Board may determine, including without limitation on terms that they may be, or at the option of the Company or the holder are, liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner, including out of capital, as the Board may deem fit.

60. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law and these Articles, any preferred shares may be issued or converted into Shares that, at a determinable date or at the option of the Company or the holder if so authorized by the Memorandum, are liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Company before the issue or conversion may by Special Resolution of the Members determine. Where the Company purchases for redemption

Annex A-132

Table of Contents

a redeemable share, purchases not made through the market or by tender shall be limited to a maximum price as may from time to time be determined by the Board, either generally or with regard to specific purchases. If purchases are by tender, tenders shall comply with applicable Law.

61. The rights and restrictions attaching to the Ordinary Shares are as follows:

(a). Income.

Holders of Ordinary Shares shall be entitled to such dividends as the Directors may in their absolute discretion lawfully declare from time to time.

(b). Capital

Holders of Ordinary Shares shall be entitled to a return of capital on liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company (other than on a conversion, redemption or purchase of Shares, or an equity financing or series of financings that do not constitute the sale of all or substantially all of the Shares of the Company).

(c). Attendance at General Meetings and Voting

Holders of Ordinary Shares have the right to receive notice of, attend, speak and vote at general meetings of the Company. Each Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one (1) vote on all matters subject to vote at general meetings of the Company.

VARIATION OF RIGHTS OF SHARES

62. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different Classes, the rights attached to any Class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that Class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied, modified or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that Class, or with the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the Shares of that Class.

63. The provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings shall apply to every Class meeting of the holders of one Class of Shares except that the necessary quorum shall be one Person holding or representing by proxy at least one-third (1/3) of the issued Shares of the Class and that any holder of Shares of the Class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

64. Subject to the provisions of the Articles, the rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any Class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that Class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to the Shares of that Class or the redemption or purchase of any Shares of any Class by the Company, and the rights of the holders of Shares shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of Shares with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of Shares with enhanced or weighted voting rights.

REGISTERED OFFICE

65. Subject to the provisions of the Statute, the Company may by resolution of the Directors change the location of its Registered Office.

GENERAL MEETINGS

66. All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

67. The Company may, but shall not (unless required by the Statute) be obliged to hold a general meeting in each calendar year as its annual general meeting and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it. The annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Directors shall appoint. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall be presented.

68. The Chairman or a majority of the Directors may call general meetings, and they shall on a Member’s requisition forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company.

Annex A-133

Table of Contents

69. A Members’ requisition is a requisition of Members of the Company holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than one-third (1/3) of all votes attaching to all issued and outstanding Shares entitled to vote at general meetings of the Company.

70. The requisition must state the objects of the meeting and must be signed by the requisitionists and deposited at the Registered Office, and may consist of several documents in like form each signed by one or more requisitionists.

71. If there are no Directors as at the date of the deposit of a Members’ requisition, or if the Directors do not within twenty-one (21) calendar days from the date of the deposit of such requisition duly proceed to convene a general meeting to be held within a further twenty-one (21) calendar days, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one- half of the total voting rights of all of them, may themselves convene a general meeting, but any meeting so convened shall not be held after the expiration of three calendar months after the expiration of the said twenty-one (21) calendar days.

72. A general meeting convened as aforesaid by requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which general meetings are to be convened by Directors.

NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS

73. At least fifteen (15) calendar days’ notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall be exclusive of the day on which it is given or deemed to be given and of the day for which it is given and shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business and shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this regulation has been given and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed:

(a). in the case of an annual general meeting, by all the Members (or their proxies) entitled to attend and vote thereat; and

(b). in the case of an extraordinary general meeting, by a majority in number of the Members (or their proxies) having a right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority together holding not less than seventy-five percent (75%) in voting rights of the Shares giving that right.

74. The accidental omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting by, any Person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings at any meeting.

PROCEEDINGS AT GENERAL MEETINGS

75. No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business. Two or more holders of Shares which carry not less than one-half of all votes attaching to Shares in issue and entitled to vote at such genral meeting, present in person or by proxy or, if a corporate or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative, shall constitute a quorum; unless the Company has only one Member entitled to vote at such general meeting in which case the quorum shall be that one Member present in person or by proxy or (in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person) by a duly authorized representative or proxy.

76. A Person may participate at a general meeting by telephone or other similar communications equipment by means of which all the Persons participating in such meeting can communicate with each other. Participation by a Person in a general meeting in this manner is treated as presence in Person at that meeting.

77. A resolution (including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all Members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations, signed by their duly authorized representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held.

78. If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting or if during such a meeting a quorum ceases to be present, the meeting shall be dissolved and in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place or to such other day, time or such other place as the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour

Annex A-134

Table of Contents

from the time appointed for the meeting, the Members constituting a majority of the outstanding share capital of the Company (calculated on an as- converted basis) shall be a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was called, provided, that, such present Members shall only discuss and/or approve the matters as described in the meeting notice delivered in accordance with these Articles.

79. The chairman, if any, of the Board of Directors shall preside as chairman at every general meeting of the Company, or if there is no such chairman, or if he shall not be present within fifteen (15) minutes after the time appointed for the holding of the meeting, or is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

80. If no Director is willing to act as chairman or if no Director is present within fifteen (15) minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

81. The chairman may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed by the meeting), adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. When a general meeting is adjourned for thirty calendar days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice.

82. A resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on the vote of the requisite majority pursuant to a poll of the Members. Unless otherwise required by the Statute or these Articles, such requisite majority shall be a simple majority of votes that are able to be cast.

83. The Directors may cancel or postpone any duly convened general meeting at any time prior to such meeting, except for general meetings requisitioned by the Members in accordance with these Articles, for any reason or for no reason, upon notice in writing to Members. A postponement may be for a stated period of any length or indefinitely as the Directors may determine. Notice of the business to be transacted at such postponed general meeting shall not be required. If a general meeting is postponed in accordance with this Article, the appointment of a proxy will be valid if it is received as required by these Articles not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the postponed meeting.

VOTES OF MEMBERS

84. Subject to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any Share, every Member present in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative or proxy) shall, at a general meeting of the Company, have one (1) vote for each Ordinary Share of which he is the holder.

85. In the case of joint holders of record the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members.

86. Shares carrying the right to vote that are held by a Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may be voted by his committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other Person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other Person may vote by proxy.

87. No Person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting or at any separate meeting of the holders of a Class of Shares unless he is registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by him in respect of Shares have been paid.

88. No objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection made in due time shall be referred to the chairman whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

Annex A-135

Table of Contents

89. Votes may be cast either personally or by proxy. A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same proxy under one or more instruments to attend and vote at a meeting. All resolutions shall be determined by poll and not on a show of hands. An instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form or such other form as the Directors may approve.

90. A Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of his Shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing him, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting.

PROXIES

91. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing, be executed under the hand of the appointor or of his attorney duly authorized in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation, under the hand of an officer or attorney duly authorized for that purpose. A proxy need not be a Member of the Company.

92. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited at the Registered Office or at such other place as is specified for that purpose in the notice convening the meeting, or in any instrument of proxy sent out by the Company:

(a). not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the time for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the Person named in the instrument proposes to vote; or

(b). in the case of a poll taken more than forty-eight (48) hours after it is demanded, be deposited as aforesaid after the poll has been demanded and not less than twenty-four (24) hours before the time appointed for the taking of the poll; or

(c). where the poll is not taken forthwith but is taken not more than forty-eight (48) hours after it was demanded be delivered at the meeting at which the poll was demanded to the chairman or to the secretary or to any director;

provided that the Directors may in the notice convening the meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, direct that the instrument appointing a proxy may be deposited (no later than the time for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting) at the Registered Office or at such other place as is specified for that purpose in the notice convening the meeting, or in any instrument of proxy sent out by the Company. The chairman may in any event at his discretion direct that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed to have been duly deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted shall be invalid.

93. The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.

94.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Sponsor Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law, or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Sponsor Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(a) Organization; Due Authorization. If such Shareholder is not an individual, it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Shareholder’s corporate, limited liability company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational actions on the part of such Shareholder.

Other than as set forth opposite such Shareholder’s name on Schedule I, such Shareholder does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any Securities.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Shareholder does not, and the performance by such Shareholder of his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, (i) if such Shareholder is not an individual, conflict with or result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Shareholder, (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any Person (including under any Contract binding upon such Shareholder or such Shareholder’s Subject Shares), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Shareholder of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of the properties or assets of the Group, to the extent the creation of such Lien would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Shareholder of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Litigation. There are no Actions or other proceedings at law or in equity initiated or pending against such Shareholder, or to the knowledge of such Shareholder threatened against such Shareholder, before (or, in the case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Authority, which in any

Table of Contents

3.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof that would subject such matter to the Laws of another jurisdiction. All legal proceedings arising under the Laws of the State of New York out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of The City of New York; provided, however, that if such federal court does not have jurisdiction over such legal proceedings, they shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Commercial Division, sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of The City of New York (and any appellate court therefrom). Each of the parties hereto agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such legal proceedings in the manner provided in Section 3.4 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Laws, will be valid and sufficient service thereof. Each of the parties hereto hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for the purpose of any legal proceeding arising under the Laws of the State of New York out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (ii) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any legal proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 3.7.

3.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENT AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS, AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

3.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and any other documents and instruments and agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated or referred to herein, constitute the entire agreement among the parties to this Agreement and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, agreements, oral or otherwise, exist between such parties except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

3.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.

3.11 Headings; Counterparts. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Annex D-7

Table of Contents

3.12 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law, or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

TAKE NOTICE that at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on 26 July 2023, the following special resolutions were passed:

Proposal No. 1 — The Extension Amendment Proposal

The Chairman noted that it was proposed that the Shareholders consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by special resolution the amendment of the MAA and in connection therewith to adopt the following resolution:

RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that the MAA be amended by deleting Articles 51.7, 51.8 and 51.9 in their entirety and replacing them with the following:

“51.7 In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the consummation of the IPO (or up to 24 months without the need for any further action, approvals or resolutions by or from the shareholders if such date is extended by the Company (acting by the Directors) as set forth below), or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles, the Company shall:

(a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;

(b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-Share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (less taxes payable and up to US$100,000 of interest to pay distribution expenses), divided by the number of then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members’ rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and

(c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve,

subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of the Articles, in the event that the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within 18 months from the consummation of the IPO, the Company may, without the need for any further action, approvals or resolutions by or from the shareholders, elect to extend the date to consummate the Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to six times by an additional one month each time after the eighteenth (18th) month from the consummation of the IPO, by resolution of the Directors, prior to the last day of such extended month, until 24 months from the consummation of the IPO. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may decide to terminate each extended monthly period, provided that the Company shall have deposited into the Trust Account, for such extended monthly period, the lesser of (a) US$100,000 and (b) US$0.025 for each Public Share that has not been redeemed as of August 2, 2023.

51.8 In the event that any amendment is made to the Articles:

(a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or redeem 100 per cent of the Public Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination on or before 18 months from the consummation of the IPO (or, if the Board has resolved to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination as described in Article 51.7, by up to 24 months from the consummation of the IPO); or

(b) with respect to any other provision relating to Members’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity,

each holder of Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director shall be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon the approval or effectiveness of any such amendment at a per-Share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.

51.9 [Reserved].”

Proposal No. 2 — The Founder Share Amendment Proposal

RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that the MAA be amended by deleting Article 17.2 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“17.2 Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”) at any time before or concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of a Business Combination at the option of the holders thereof.”

RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that the MAA be amended by deleting Article 51.11 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“51.11 Except in circumstances where Class A Shares are issued in connection with a conversion pursuant to Article 17.2 hereof where the holders of such shares have waived any right to receive funds from the Trust Account, after the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:

(a) receive funds from the Trust Account; or

(b) vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.”

The redemption of such Shares, except Public Shares, shall be effected in such manner and upon such other terms as the Company may, by Special Resolution, determine before the issue of such Shares. With respect to redeeming or repurchasing the Shares:

(a) Members who hold Public Shares are entitled to request the redemption of such Shares in the circumstances described in the Business Combination Article hereof;

(b) Class B Shares held by the Sponsor shall be surrendered by the Sponsor for no consideration on a pro rata basis to the extent that the Over-Allotment Option is not exercised in full so that the Founders will own 20 per cent of the Company’s issued Shares after the IPO (exclusive of any securities purchased in a private placement simultaneously with the IPO); and

(c) Public Shares shall be repurchased by way of tender offer in the circumstances set out in the Business Combination Article hereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, redemptions, repurchases and surrenders of Shares in the circumstances described in the Article above shall not require further approval of the Members.

8.4 The Directors may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid Share.

9.2 The Directors may determine to cancel a Treasury Share or transfer a Treasury Share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation, for nil consideration).

10 Variation of Rights of Shares

10.1 Subject to Article 3.1, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued Shares of that class (other than with respect to a waiver of the provisions of the Class B Share Conversion Article hereof, which as stated therein shall only require the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that class), or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt, the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply mutatis mutandis, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one third of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

10.2 For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.

10.3 The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith or Shares issued with preferred or other rights.

11 Commission on Sale of Shares

The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly paid-up Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.

12 Non Recognition of Trusts

The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.

other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien thereon. The Company’s lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

13.2 The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within fourteen clear days after notice has been received or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

13.3 To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or his nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company’s power of sale under the Articles.

13.4 The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

14 Call on Shares

14.1 Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen clear days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

14.2 A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.

14.3 The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

14.4 If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment), but the Directors may waive payment of the interest or expenses wholly or in part.

14.5 An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of the Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

14.6 The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.

14.7 The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.

14.8 No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a Dividend or other distribution payable in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.

15 Forfeiture of Shares

15.1 If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than fourteen clear days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment. The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

15.2 If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

15.3 A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Directors may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.

15.4 A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest at such rate as the Directors may determine, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by him in respect of those Shares.

15.5 A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or Officer that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom the Share is sold or otherwise disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

15.6 The provisions of the Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

16 Transmission of Shares

16.1 If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors (where he was a joint holder), or his legal personal representatives (where he was a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which he was a joint or sole holder.

16.2 Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect, by a notice in writing sent by him to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the holder of such Share. If he elects to have another person registered as the holder of such Share he shall sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.

16.3 A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the holder of such Share. However, he shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or to have some person nominated by him be registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within ninety days of being received or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles), the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

17 Class B Ordinary Share Conversion

17.1 The rights attaching to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects, and the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall vote together as a single class on all matters (subject to the Variation of Rights of Shares Article, the Appointment and Removal of Directors Article and Transfer by Way of Continuation Article hereof) with the exception that the holder of a Class B Share shall have the conversion rights referred to in this Article.

17.2 Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”) concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of a Business Combination.

17.3 Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the closing of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of a Business Combination at a ratio for which the Class B Shares shall convert into Class A Shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the Class B Shares in issue agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, on an as-converted basis, in the aggregate, 20 per cent of the sum of all Class A Shares and Class B Shares in issue upon completion of the IPO (including any Class A Shares issued pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option and excluding any Class A Shares underlying the private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor) plus all Class A Shares and Equity-linked Securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, excluding any Shares or Equity-linked Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, or its Affiliates upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company.

Table of Contents

17.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the Class B Shares then in issue consenting or agreeing separately as a separate class in the manner provided in the Variation of Rights of Shares Article hereof.

17.5 The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share split, subdivision, exchange, capitalisation, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or combination (by reverse share split, share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class A Shares in issue into a greater or lesser number of shares occurring after the original filing of the Articles without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class B Shares in issue.

17.6 Each Class B Share shall convert into its pro rata number of Class A Shares pursuant to this Article. The pro rata share for each holder of Class B Shares will be determined as follows: each Class B Share shall convert into such number of Class A Shares as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Class A Shares into which all of the Class B Shares in issue shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Class B Shares in issue at the time of conversion.

17.7 References in this Article to “converted”, “conversion” or “exchange” shall mean the compulsory redemption without notice of Class B Shares of any Member and, on behalf of such Members, automatic application of such redemption proceeds in paying for such new Class A Shares into which the Class B Shares have been converted or exchanged at a price per Class B Share necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the Class A Shares to be issued as part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The Class A Shares to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered in the name of such Member or in such name as the Member may direct.

17.8 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any Class B Share convert into Class A Shares at a ratio that is less than one-for-one.

24.1 Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any Shares, including as set out at Article 31.4, every Member present in any such manner shall have one vote for every Share of which he is the holder.

24.2 In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy (or, in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members.

24.3 A Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may vote by his committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other person may vote by proxy.

24.4 No person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless he is registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by him in respect of Shares have been paid.

24.5 No objection shall be raised as to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection made in due time in accordance with this Article shall be referred to the chairman whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

24.7 A Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of his Shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing him, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed.

25.1 The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed under the hand of the appointor or of his attorney duly authorised in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation or other non natural person, under the hand of its duly authorised representative. A proxy need not be a Member.

25.2 The Directors may, in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, specify the manner by which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited and the place and the time (being not later than the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting to which the proxy relates) at which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited.

26 Corporate Members

26.1 Any corporation or other non-natural person which is a Member may in accordance with its constitutional documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which he represents as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member.

26.2 If a Clearing House (or its nominee(s)), being a corporation, is a Member, it may authorise such persons as it sees fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of Members provided that the authorisation shall specify the number and class of Shares in respect of which each such representative is so authorised. Each person so authorised under the provisions of this Article shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of such Shares held by the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)).

27 Shares that May Not be Voted

Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law or the Articles, the chairman or co-chairman of any annual general meeting to appointment Directors or the Directors may, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination was not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure or if the Member solicits proxies in support of such Member’s nominee(s) without such Member having made the representation required by Article 29.3(c); and if the chairman, co-chairman or the Directors should so determine, it shall be so declared to the annual general meeting, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

(d) if appointed as a Director, will act in the best interests of the Company and not in the interest of any individual constituency. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall review all such information submitted by the Member with respect to the proposed nominee and determine whether such nominee is eligible to act as a Director. The Company and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent Director or that could be material to a reasonable Member’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee.

29.8 At the request of the Directors, any person nominated for appointment as a Director shall furnish to the Company the information that is required to be set forth in a Members’ notice of nomination pursuant to this Article.

29.9 Any Member proposing to nominate a person or persons for appointment as Director shall be responsible for, and bear the costs associated with, soliciting votes from any other voting Member and distributing materials to such Members prior to the annual general meeting in accordance with the Articles and applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

34 Presumption of Assent

A Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall file his written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairman or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting.

40 Seal

40.1 The Company may, if the Directors so determine, have a Seal. The Seal shall only be used by the authority of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors authorised by the Directors. Every instrument to which the Seal has been affixed shall be signed by at least one person who shall be either a Director or some Officer or other person appointed by the Directors for the purpose.

40.2 The Company may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate Seal or Seals each of which shall be a facsimile of the common Seal of the Company and, if the Directors so determine, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be used.

40.3 A Director or Officer, representative or attorney of the Company may without further authority of the Directors affix the Seal over his signature alone to any document of the Company required to be authenticated by him under seal or to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere wheresoever.

41 Dividends, Distributions and Reserve

41.1 Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law.

41.2 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for Dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for Dividend accordingly.

41.3 The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) then payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

41.4 The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.

41.5 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how any costs involved are to be met.

41.6 The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.

41.7 Any Dividend, other distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

41.8 No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

41.9 Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the discretion of the Directors, be paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the Dividend or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.

42 Capitalisation

The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid-up to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

43 Books of Account

43.1 The Directors shall cause proper books of account (including, where applicable, material underlying documentation including contracts and invoices) to be kept with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets and liabilities of the Company. Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they are prepared. Proper books shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

43.2 The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

44.2 Without prejudice to the freedom of the Directors to establish any other committee, if the Shares (or depositary receipts therefor) are listed or quoted on the Designated Stock Exchange, and if required by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law, the Directors shall establish and maintain an Audit Committee as a committee of the Directors and shall adopt a formal written Audit Committee charter and review and assess the adequacy of the formal written charter on an annual basis. The composition and responsibilities of the Audit Committee shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law. The Audit Committee shall meet at least once every financial quarter, or more frequently as circumstances dictate.

44.5 If the office of Auditor becomes vacant by resignation or death of the Auditor, or by his becoming incapable of acting by reason of illness or other disability at a time when his services are required, the Directors shall fill the vacancy and determine the remuneration of such Auditor.

44.6 Every Auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and Officers such information and explanation as may be necessary for the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

44.7 Auditors shall, if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an ordinary company, and at the next extraordinary general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the Registrar of Companies as an exempted company, and at any other time during their term of office, upon request of the Directors or any general meeting of the Members.

44.8 At least one member of the Audit Committee shall be an “audit committee financial expert” as determined by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law.

46 Winding Up

46.1 If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction of creditors’ claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding up:

(a) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them; or

(b) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.

46.2 If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and with the approval of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other approval required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like approval, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like approval, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon which there is a liability.

47 Indemnity and Insurance

47.1 Every Director and Officer (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company), together with every former Director and former Officer (each an “Indemnified Person”) shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

47.2 The Company shall advance to each Indemnified Person reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defence of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnified Person for which indemnity will or could be sought. In connection with any advance of any expenses hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall execute an undertaking to repay the advanced amount to the Company if it shall be determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall not be indemnified with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnified Person.

47.3 The Directors, on behalf of the Company, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any Director or Officer against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to the Company.

49 Transfer by Way of Continuation

49.1 Prior to the closing of a Business Combination, if the Company is exempted as defined in the Statute, it shall, subject to the provisions of the Statute and with the approval of a Special Resolution of the holders of the Class B Shares, have the power to register by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and to be deregistered in the Cayman Islands. The Company may also, with the approval of a Special Resolution of the holders of the Class B Shares, amend the Memorandum and Articles if required to facilitate the Company transferring by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to the closing of a Business Combination, holders of Class A Shares shall have no right to vote on the transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands or to vote on any amendment to the Memorandum and Articles to facilitate the Company transferring by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands under this Article 49.

49.2 After the closing of a Business Combination, if the Company is exempted as defined in the Statute, it shall, subject to the provisions of the Statute and with the approval of a Special Resolution, have the power to register by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and to be deregistered in the Cayman Islands.

50 Mergers and Consolidations

The Company shall have the power to merge or consolidate with one or more other constituent companies (as defined in the Statute) upon such terms as the Directors may determine and (to the extent required by the Statute) with the approval of a Special Resolution.

51 Business Combination

51.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Articles, this Article shall apply during the period commencing upon the adoption of the Articles and terminating upon the first to occur of the consummation of a Business Combination and the full distribution of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In the event of a conflict between this Article and any other Articles, the provisions of this Article shall prevail.

51.2 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall either:

(a) submit such Business Combination to its Members for approval; or

(b) provide Members with the opportunity to have their Shares repurchased by means of a tender offer for a per-Share repurchase price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of such Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (net of taxes paid or payable, if any), divided by the number of then issued Public Shares, provided that the Company shall not repurchase Public Shares in an amount that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than US$5,000,001 either immediately prior to, or upon consummation of, our initial business combination. Such obligation to repurchase Shares is subject to the completion of the proposed Business Combination to which it relates.

51.3 If the Company initiates any tender offer in accordance with Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act in connection with a proposed Business Combination, it shall file tender offer documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to completing such Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about such Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required

under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. If, alternatively, the Company holds a general meeting to approve a proposed Business Combination, the Company will conduct any redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, and file proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

51.4 At a general meeting called for the purposes of approving a Business Combination pursuant to this Article, in the event that such Business Combination is approved by Ordinary Resolution, the Company shall be authorised to consummate such Business Combination, provided that the Company shall not consummate such Business Combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001 immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to, such Business Combination.

51.5 Any Member holding Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director may, in connection with any vote on a Business Combination, elect to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided for in the related proxy materials (the “IPO Redemption”), provided that no such Member acting together with any Affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, or other group for the purposes of acquiring, holding, or disposing of Shares may exercise this redemption right with respect to more than 20 per cent of the Public Shares in the aggregate without the prior consent of the Company and provided further that any beneficial holder of Public Shares on whose behalf a redemption right is being exercised must identify itself to the Company in connection with any redemption election in order to validly redeem such Public Shares. In connection with any vote held to approve a proposed Business Combination, holders of Public Shares seeking to exercise their redemption rights will be required to either tender their certificates (if any) to the Company’s transfer agent or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, at the holder’s option, in each case up to two business days prior to the initially scheduled vote on the proposal to approve a Business Combination and comply with any other applicable requirements provided for in the related proxy materials. If so demanded, the Company shall pay any such redeeming Member, regardless of whether he is voting for or against such proposed Business Combination, a per-Share redemption price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (such interest shall be net of taxes payable) and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued Public Shares (such redemption price being referred to herein as the “Redemption Price”), but only in the event that the applicable proposed Business Combination is approved and in connection with its consummation. The Company shall not redeem Public Shares that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than US$5,000,001 following such redemptions (the “Redemption Limitation”).

51.6 A Member may not withdraw a Redemption Notice once submitted to the Company unless the Directors determine (in their sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part).

51.7 In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 15 months from the consummation of the IPO, upon the request of the Sponsor (or any of its affiliates or designees), the board of Directors shall pass a resolution to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to three times, each by an additional 3 months (for an aggregate of 9 additional months) (each an “Extension Period”), provided that:

(a) the Sponsor (or any of its affiliates or designees) provide a five-business day advance notice prior to the date of the applicable deadline for consummating a Business Combination;

		Annex G-39

Table of Contents

(b) the Sponsor (or any of its affiliates or designees) pay into the Trust Account an additional $0.10 per Public Share for each such Extension Period, $0.20 per Public Share for 6 months of Extension Periods, or $0.30 per Public Share for full 9 months of Extension Periods, in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note payable upon consummation of a Business Combination; and

(c) the procedures relating to any such Extension Period, as set forth in the Investment Management Trust Agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, shall have been complied with.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of such promissory note shall be held in the Trust Account and used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares in accordance with Article 51.5.

If the Company consummates a Business Combination during an Extension Period, such promissory note shall be repaid from funds which are released to the Company from the Trust Account, or at the option of the Sponsor, all or a portion of the total loaned amount pursuant to such promissory note shall be converted into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, which shall be identical to the private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor.

51.8 In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination by 15 months from the consummation of the IPO (or up to 24 months if such date is extended as described in Article 51.7), or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles (collectively, the “Business Combination Period”), the Company shall:

(a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;

(b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-Share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (less taxes payable and up to US$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members’ rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and

(c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve,

subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law. For avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination during the Business Combination Period, any promissory note from the Sponsor (or any of its affiliates or designees) as described in Article 51.7 shall only be repaid from funds outside of the Trust Account.

51.9 In the event that any amendment is made to the Articles:

(a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or redeem 100 per cent of the Public Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 15 months from the consummation of the IPO (or up to 24 months if such date is extended as described in Article 51.7), or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles; or

(b) with respect to any other provision relating to Members’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity,

interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. The Company’s ability to provide such redemption in this Article is subject to the Redemption Limitation.

51.10 A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the event of an IPO Redemption, a repurchase of Shares by means of a tender offer pursuant to this Article, or a distribution of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In no other circumstance shall a holder of Public Shares have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account.

51.11 After the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:

(a) receive funds from the Trust Account; or

(b) vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.

51.12 Any transaction or transactions between the Company and any of the following parties:

(a) any Member owning an interest in the voting power of the Company that gives such Member a significant influence over the Company; and

any Director or Officer and any Affiliate of such Director or Officer,

may only be approved by a majority of the uninterested Independent Directors.

51.13 A Director may vote in respect of a Business Combination in which such Director has a conflict of interest with respect to the evaluation of such Business Combination. Such Director must disclose such interest or conflict to the other Directors.

51.14 As long as the securities of the Company are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Company must complete one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80 per cent of the assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts previously disbursed to the Company’s management for taxes and excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in the Trust Account) at the time of the Company’s signing a definitive agreement in connection with a Business Combination. A Business Combination must not be effectuated solely with another blank cheque company or a similar company with nominal operations. A Business Combination must not be effectuated with any target business based in or with its principal business operations in Mainland China, Hong Kong or Macau.

51.15 The Company may enter into a Business Combination with a target business that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer. In the event the Company seeks to complete a Business Combination with a target that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer, the Company, or a committee of Independent Directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another valuation or appraisal firm that regularly renders fairness opinions on the type of target business the Company is seeking to acquire that is a member of the United States Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or an independent accounting firm that such a Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view.

53.1 To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no individual serving as a Director or an Officer (“Management”) shall have any duty, except and to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for Management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other. Except to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Management shall have no duty to communicate or offer any such corporate opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable to the Company or its Members for breach of any fiduciary duty as a Member, Director and/or Officer solely by reason of the fact that such party pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, himself or herself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company.

53.2 Except as provided elsewhere in this Article, the Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both the Company and Management, about which a Director and/or Officer who is also a member of Management acquires knowledge.

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the provisions of this Article apply equally to activities conducted in the future and that have been conducted in the past.

Table of Contents

54.3 Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have, each Member acknowledges that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum and that accordingly the Company shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum.

54.4 This Article 54 shall not apply to any action or suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are, as a matter of the laws of the United States, the sole and exclusive forum for determination of such a claim.
