NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Plum Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company” or “Plum”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 11, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any Business Combination target. The Company will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region in its identification and acquisition of a target company. The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 11, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO”), which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. The Company believes it 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 investments in the Company’s Trust account and will recognize changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities as other income (expense).

The Company’s Sponsor is Plum Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on March 15, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On March 18, 2021, the Company consummated the initial public offering (the “Public Offering” or “IPO”) of 30,000,000 units (the “Units), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $300,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 6,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, which is discussed in Note 4. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, generating gross proceeds of $9,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

The underwriter partially exercised the over-allotment option on April 14, 2021 and purchased 1,921,634 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Units on April 14, 2021, the Company consummated the private placement with the Sponsor for an aggregate of 256,218 warrants to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares for $1.50 per warrant generating total proceeds of $384,327. On April 14, 2021, $19,216,340, net of the underwriter discount, was deposited in the Company’s Trust account.

A total of $19,216,340 was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Transaction costs of the IPO and the exercise of the over-allotment option amounted to $18,336,269 consisting of $6,384,327 of underwriting discount, $11,172,572 of deferred underwriting discount, and $779,370 of other offering costs. Of the transaction costs, $538,777 is included in transaction costs on consolidated the statements of operations and $17,797,492 is included in consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ deficit.

Following the closing of the Public Offering on March 18, 2021 and the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, $319,216,340 (approximately $10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Public Offering, including the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was deposited in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States at Goldman Sachs, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and was invested in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invests 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 (1) to the Company, until the completion of our initial Business Combination, or (2) to the Public Shareholders, until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, and then only in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholders properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly

Table of Contents

tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of its Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within 27 months from the closing of the IPO(or up to 36 months from the closing of our initial public offering if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (the “Combination Period”) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, and (iii) the redemption of the public shares if the Company has not consummated its Business Combination within the Combination Period, subject to applicable law. Public Shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the Trust Account upon the subsequent completion of an initial Business Combination or liquidation if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed. 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 (as defined below).

The Company will provide shareholders (the “Public Shareholders”) of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, sold in the IPO (the “Public Shares”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled 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 the Company’s taxes, if any, divided by the number of then-outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share.

These Public Shares have been classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the 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 receives the approval of an ordinary resolution.

The Company will have to September 18, 2023, or until March 18, 2024, if elected to extend the Termination Date up to nine times by an additional one month each time, to complete an initial Business Combination. However, if the Company is unable to complete a 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 and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and its 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 the requirements of other applicable law.

Extraordinary General Meeting and Redemption of Shares

On March 15, 2023, Plum held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its Shareholders (1) to amend Plum’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”) to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which Plum has to consummate a business combination (the “Articles Extension”) from March 18, 2023 (the “Original Termination Date”) to June 18, 2023 (the “Articles Extension Date”) and to allow Plum, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by resolution of Plum’s board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until March 18, 2024, or a total of up to twelve months after the Original Termination Date, unless the closing of Plum’s initial business combination shall have occurred prior to such date (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (2) to amend the Articles to eliminate from the Articles the limitation that Plum may not redeem Class A ordinary shares to the extent that such redemption would result in Plum having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a 51-1(g)(1)of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow Plum to redeem Public Shares irrespective

Table of Contents

of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”). The shareholders of Plum approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting and on March 15, 2023, Plum filed the amendment to the Articles with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands.

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 26,693,416 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of $10.23 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of $273,112,311.62.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, (ii) 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) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of the Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares they hold if the Company fails to consummate an 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 (iv) vote their Founder Shares and public shares in favor of our initial Business Combination.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern

The Company’s liquidity needs up to March 18, 2021 had been satisfied through a capital contribution from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors, and third parties have committed to provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 5). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $1,000,000 outstanding under Working Capital Loans.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $20,880 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $7,308,482.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASBASC205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern”, management has determined that the Company has and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Accounts. In addition, following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Further, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by September 18, 2023 or by March 18, 2024 if the Board of Directors adopts resolutions, upon request of the Sponsor, to extend the Termination Date up to nine times by an additional one month each time (the “Combination Period”), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution as well as the Company’s working capital deficit raise 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 the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated 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 10 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 consolidated 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.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The interim results for the period ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include its wholly owned subsidiaries in connection with the initial Business Combination, namely Plum SPAC I Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub I”), and Plum SPAC 2 Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub II”). All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II. There has been no intercompany activity since inception.

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 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 stockholder 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 unaudited condensed 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 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities

Table of Contents

at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the subscription and forward purchase agreements and warrants liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and 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 June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Investments Held in Trust Account

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, funds held in the Trust Account include $55,154,617 and $323,911,642, respectively, of investments held in a money market fund characterized as Level 1 investments within the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 (as defined below). The Company classifies its money market fund as trading securities in accordance with ASC 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.”

Convertible Promissory Note

The Company accounts for its convertible promissory note under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). Under 815-15-25, the election can be at the inception of a financial instrument to account for the instrument under the fair value option under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825”). The Company has made such election for its convertible promissory note. Using fair value option, the convertible promissory note is required to be recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance and each balance sheet date thereafter. Differences between the face value of the note and fair value at issuance are recognized as either an expense in the consolidated statements of operations (if issued at a premium) or as a capital contribution (if issued at a discount). Changes in the estimated fair value of the notes are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

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 FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that features 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, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected on the consolidated balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Table of Contents


Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2022	$	323,911,642

Redemptions of ordinary shares		(273,112,312)
Plus:
Accretion adjustment of carrying value to redemption value		4,355,287
Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, June 30, 2023	$	55,154,617

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A— “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Public Offering. Offering costs are charged to shareholders’ deficit or the consolidated statements of operations based on the relative value of the Warrants to the proceeds received from the Units sold upon the completion of the IPO.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, (excluding the promissory note and Warrants) which qualify as financial instruments under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheets.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the Warrants 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 Warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the Warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the holders of the Warrants 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 issuance of the Warrants and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, liability-classified warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of such warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company accounts for the Public and Private warrants in accordance with guidance contained in ASC815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability (See Note 6).

Forward Purchase Agreement

The Company evaluated the forward purchase agreement (“FPA”) to determine if such instrument is a derivative or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, will be re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The 2,500,000 forward purchase securities were recognized as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the forward purchase securities as a liability at its fair value and adjust the instrument to its fair value at each reporting period. The liability will be subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised. The fair value of the forward purchase securities is measured using a Probability Weighted Expected Return Model that values the FPA based on future projections of various potential outcomes.

On June 15, 2023, the Company received a termination notice (the “Notice”) from Sakuu Corporation (“Sakuu”), that terminated, effective June 14, 2023, the Business Combination Agreement, dated March 2, 2023, and in light of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, the FPA was also terminated.

Table of Contents

Subscription Agreement

On March 16, 2023, the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreements”) with Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (the “Investor”) and the Sponsor (collectively, the “Parties”), the purpose of which is for the Sponsor to raise up to $1,500,000 from the Investor to fund the Articles Extension and to provide working capital to the Company during the Articles Extension (“Investor’s Capital Commitment”). In consideration of the funds, Sponsor will transfer 0.75 of a Class A ordinary share for each dollar the Investor funds (the “Subscription Shares”) to the Investor at the closing of the Business Combination. The Subscription Shares shall be subject to the Lock-Up Period as defined in section 5 of the Sponsor Letter Agreement.

The Company recorded the fair value of the subscription liability on the consolidated balance sheets and the related expense on its consolidated statements of operations. The initial fair value of the subscription liability was estimated using a probability weighted expected return model (Note 7).

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. 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 consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and promissory note to related parties are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to the short maturities of such instruments. See Note 7 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC Topic 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 June 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.

Table of Contents

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 periods presented. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net Income Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The potential 12,640,544 ordinary shares for outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s shares were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 because the warrants are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. As a result, diluted net income per ordinary share is the same as basic net income per ordinary share for the period. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income per share for each class of ordinary share:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,								For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On March 18, 2021, the Company sold 30,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).

On April 14, 2021, the Company sold an additional 1,921,634 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant.

All of the 31,921,634 Class A ordinary share sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary share subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.

The Class A ordinary share is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting

Table of Contents

period. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable ordinary share resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $9,000,000, in a private placement. Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Units on April 14, 2021, the Company consummated the private placement with the Sponsor for an aggregate of 256,218 warrants to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares for $1.50 per warrant generating total proceeds of $384,327. A portion of the proceeds from the private placements were 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 will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

The Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO. The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination (except pursuant to limited exceptions to the Company’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Warrants) and they will not be redeemable by the Company so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis.

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 the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units sold in the IPO.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On January 13, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain offering costs in consideration for 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”). Up to 1,125,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriter. On April 14, 2021 the underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option buying 1,921,634 Units thus reducing the total number of share subject to forfeiture to 644,591. On May 2, 2021 the underwriter’s over-allotment option expired and 644,591 Founder Shares were forfeited to the Company.

The Sponsor and the Company’s directors and executive officers have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until earliest of (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of our Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, 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 (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-up”).Any permitted transferees would be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the Sponsor and the directors and executive officers with respect to any Founder Shares.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On January 13, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note. This loan is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of November 30, 2021 or the completion of the IPO. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has no borrowings under the Note. Borrowings under this note are no longer available.

Table of Contents

On March 16, 2023, Plum issued an unsecured promissory note in the total principal amount of up to $250,000 (the “Promissory Note”) to Mr. Kanishka Roy, individually and as a member of Plum Partners LLC. Mr. Roy funded the initial principal amount of $250,000 on March 14, 2023. The Promissory Note does not bear interest and matures upon the consummation of Plum’s initial business combination with one or more businesses or entities. In the event Plum does not consummate a business combination, the Promissory Note will be repaid upon Plum’s liquidation only from amounts remaining outside of Plum’s trust account, if any. The Promissory Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Promissory Note becoming immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has $250,000 and $0 borrowings under the Note.

Working Capital Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors, and third parties have committed to loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company will repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to it. In the event that a 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 held in 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 $1.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except as set forth above, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of the initial Business Combination, the Company does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor its affiliates or any members of the Company’s management team as the Company does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the Company’s Trust Account.

On January 31, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to Mike Dinsdale (the “Payee”). The Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company may draw on the Note from time to time, in increments of not less than $50,000, until the earlier of March 18, 2023 or the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Note shall not be repaid and all amounts owed under it will be forgiven. Upon the consummation of a Business Combination, the Payee shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the principal balance of the Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants (as defined in that certain Warrant Agreement, dated March 18, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company), at a price of $1.50 per private placement warrant. The Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Note becoming immediately due and payable.

On July 11, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Second Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to Ursula Burns (the “Second Payee”). The Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. Up to fifty percent (50%) of the principal of the Note may be drawn down from time to time at the Company’s option prior to August 25, 2022 and any or all of the remaining undrawn principal of the Note may be drawn down from time to time at the Company’s option after August 25, 2022, in each case in increments of not less than $50,000. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Second Note shall not be repaid and all amounts owed under it will be forgiven. Upon the consummation of a Business Combination, the Second Payee shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the principal balance of the Second Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants, at a price of $1.50 per private placement warrant. The Second Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Second Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Second Note becoming immediately due and payable.

The Note and Second Note are reported at cost in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as the fair value adjustment associated with the conversion is deemed to be immaterial.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $1,000,000 borrowings under the Note and Second Note.

Subscription Agreement

On March 16, 2023, the Sponsor entered into a Subscription Agreement with Investor, pursuant to which Investor agreed to pay the Sponsor an aggregate of $480,000 to fund the Company’s working capital requirements during the Articles Extension and the Sponsor agreed to assign to Investor, effective as of the Closing Date or the earlier termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms or otherwise, an aggregate of 360,000 Founder Shares. Investor paid $480,000 to the Sponsor on March 17, 2023.

Subsequently, on May 23, 2023, Investor agreed to pay the Sponsor an aggregate of $270,000 to fund the Company’s working capital requirements during the Articles Extension and the Sponsor agreed to assign to Investor, effective as of the Closing Date or the earlier termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms or otherwise, an aggregate of 202,500 Founder Shares. Investor paid $480,000 to the Sponsor on May 23, 2023.

The Sponsor subsequently advanced these funds to the Company for working capital purposes during the Articles Extension.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company will pay the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to members of the management team. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. In addition, the Company reimburses the Sponsor for the reasonable costs of salaries and other services provided to the Company by the employees, consultants and or members of the Sponsor or its affiliates. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000, respectively, in fees for office space, secretarial and administrative services, of which such amounts are included in the due to related party in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $95,576 and $309,179, in fees for reimbursement of costs of salaries, respectively.

NOTE 6 — WARRANTS

The Public Warrants will become exercisable at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination; provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, it will use commercially reasonable 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, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement, provided that 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 elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but the Company will use its commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th 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, but the Company will use its commercially reasonably 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 lesser of (A) the quotient obtained

Table of Contents

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” (as defined below) less the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average 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.

In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any 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 Class A ordinary share underlying such unit.

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Class A Ordinary Share Equals or Exceeds $18.00

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (except with respect to the Private Placement 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 to each warrant holder; and

●

if, and only if, the last reported sale 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 three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Class A Ordinary Share Equals or Exceeds $10.00

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares (as defined above);

●

if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per public 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 the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

●

if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding public warrants, as described above.

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 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 Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor 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 our

Table of Contents

Class A ordinary shares during the 20 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”) is below $9.20 per share, 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 described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

NOTE 7 — RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the investments in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $55.2 million and $323.9 million in U.S. Money Market funds, respectively. The Company considers all investments with original maturities of more than three months but less than one year to be short-term investments.

Fair values of the Company’s investments are classified as Level 1 utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s permitted investments consist of U.S. Money Market funds. Fair values of these investments are determined by Level 1 inputs utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. The Company’s initial value of the warrant liability was based on a valuation model utilizing management judgment and pricing inputs from observable and unobservable markets with less volume and transaction frequency than active markets and classified as level 3. The subsequent measurement of the Public Warrants is classified as Level 1 due to the use of an observable market price of these warrants. The subsequent measurement of the Private Warrants is classified as Level 2 because these warrants are economically equivalent to the Public warrants, based on the terms of the Private Warrant agreement, and as such their value is principally derived by the value of the Public Warrants. Significant deviations from these estimates and inputs could result in a material change in fair value. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no transfers amongst level 1, 2, and 3 values during the period. At December 31, 2021, the Company reclassified the Public Warrants and Private Warrants from Level 3 to Level 1 and Level 2, respectively.

The fair value of the subscription liability was $1,946,467 as of June 30, 2023. The initial fair value of the subscription liability was estimated using a probability weighted expected return model. The subscription liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial instrument. The debt discount is being amortized to interest expense as a non-cash charge over the term of the subscription liability, in which is generally the Company’s expected Business Combination date at the time of each draw. During the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $1,348,033 of interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount. The remaining balance of the debt discount as of June 30, 2023 amounted to $2,479,445.

The FPA liability is measured at fair value using a probability weighted expected return model based on future projections of various potential outcomes. The FPA liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial instrument. On June 15, 2023, the Company received a termination notice from Sakuu, that terminated, effective June 14, 2023, the Business Combination Agreement, dated March 2, 2023. In light of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, the FPA was also terminated. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there was no FPA liability outstanding.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

Forward Purchase Agreement Liability

The estimated fair value of the FPA liability on March 1, 2023 (initial measurement) is determined using Level 3 inputs. The expected term was based on management assumptions regarding the timing and likelihood of completing a business combination. The FPA liability is discounted to net present values using risk free rates. Discount rates were based on current risk-free rates based on the estimated term.

On June 15, 2023, the Company received a termination notice from Sakuu, that terminated, effective June 14, 2023, the Business Combination Agreement, dated March 2, 2023. In light of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, the FPA was also terminated. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there was no FPA liability outstanding.

The following table presents the changes in the fair value of the forward purchase agreement (“FPA”) liability:

NOTE 8 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder 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 Company’s completion of its initial Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provide that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable Lock-up period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, as described in Note 5, and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Warrants and the respective Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants, 30 days after 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

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from March 18, 2021 to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriter partially exercised the over-allotment option and, on April 14, 2021, the underwriter purchased 1,921,634 Units.

On March 18, 2021, the Company paid the underwriter’s fee of $6,000,000 upon the closing of the IPO. Upon partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Company paid $384,327 to the underwriter.

Table of Contents

In addition, the Underwriting Agreement provides $11,172,572 to be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. However, the underwriter, Goldman Sachs, waived any entitlement it has to such commissions under the Underwriting Agreement.

Waiver of Deferred Underwriting Discount

On January 16, 2023, Goldman Sachs, the underwriter of the Company’s initial public offering, waived any entitlement it had to its deferred underwriting discount in the amount of $11,172,572. In doing so, Goldman Sachs did not forfeit or waive any claim or right it otherwise has under the certain Underwriting Agreement dated March 15, 2021.

Service Provider Agreements

From time to time the Company has entered into and may enter into agreements with various services providers and advisors, including investment banks, to help us identify targets, negotiate terms of potential Business Combinations, consummate a Business Combination and/or provide other services. In connection with these agreements, the Company may be required to pay such service providers and advisors fees in connection with their services to the extent that certain conditions, including the closing of a potential Business Combination, are met. If a Business Combination does not occur, the Company would not expect to be required to pay these contingent fees. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete a Business Combination.

Business Combination Agreement

On March 2, 2023, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time and including the transactions contemplated thereby, collectively, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, Sakuu Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Sakuu”), Merger Sub I, and Merger Sub II.

In addition, in the event that the Company has not consummated an initial business combination by the Articles Extension Date (defined below), without approval of the Company’s public shareholders, the Company may, by resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date (as defined below), extend the Termination Date up to nine times, each by one additional month (for a total of up to nine additional months to complete a Business Combination), provided that the Lender will deposit into the Trust Account for each such monthly extension, the lesser of (A) $160,000 or (B) $0.04 for each Public Share remaining after the Redemption, in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note issued by Plum to the Lender.

(c)

each member of the Sponsor has the right to contribute any amount requested under each Drawdown Request (“Sponsor Capital Contribution”), provided that such Sponsor Capital Contributions will be made on terms no more favorable than the Investor’s Capital Commitment. In addition, the Company and Sponsor maintain the ability to enter into other agreements with each other or with other parties which shall provide for funding of the Company (through the issuance of equity, entry into promissory notes, or otherwise) outside of Drawdown Requests, provided that the terms of any such agreement between the Company or Sponsor with each other or any party or parties will be no more favorable than the terms under this Agreement;

(d)

any amounts funded by the Sponsor to the Company under a Drawdown Request shall not accrue interest and shall be promptly repaid by the Company to the Sponsor upon the Business Combination Closing. Following receipt of such sums from the Company, and in any event within 5 business days of the Business Combination Closing, the Sponsor or Company shall pay to the Investor, an amount equal to all Capital Calls funded under the Subscription Agreement (the “Business Combination Payment”). The Investor may elect at the Business Combination Closing to receive such Business Combination Payment in cash or Class A ordinary shares at a rate of 1 Class A ordinary share for each $10 of the Capital Calls funded under the Subscription Agreement.

Seller may not beneficially own greater than 9.9% of the FPA Shares on a pro forma basis.

Seller has agreed to waive any redemption rights with respect to any FPA Shares and separate shares in connection with the Business Combination.

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides that at Closing, the Company will pay to Polar, out of funds held in Trust Account, an amount equal to the sum of (x) the Public Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) multiplied by the Redemption Price (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation), and (y) the proceeds of the Private Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) purchased by Polar (collectively, such amount, the “Prepayment Amount”), to Polar.

At the maturity of the Forward Purchase Agreement, which will be one year from the Closing unless accelerated or deferred (but up to two years) by Seller, the Company will repurchase the Public and Private Shares then held by Seller for a price equal to the Redemption Price plus $0.60 (which amount will be increased by another $0.60 per year for each year by which the maturity is deferred by Seller), The Prepayment Amount will be credited against this repurchase price.

The Sponsor, upon on at least five (5) calendar days’ prior written notice (“Capital Notice”), may require a drawdown against the Investor’s Capital Commitment under a Drawdown Request (each a “Capital Call”). An amount of up to $750,000 of the Investor’s Capital Commitment was deemed the subject of a Capital Call concurrently with the execution of the Subscription Agreement, and an amount that is up to the balance of the Investor’s Capital Commitment may be called upon the filing of a registration statement by the SPAC or the surviving entity in relation to the business combination.

(b)

in consideration of the Capital Calls, Sponsor will transfer 1 share of Class A ordinary share for each dollar the Investor funds pursuant to the Capital Call(s) in respect of the second contribution (together, the “Subscription Shares”) to the Investor at the closing of the Business Combination (the “Business Combination Closing”). The Subscription Shares shall be subject to the Lock-Up Period as defined in section 5 of the Sponsor Letter Agreement dated March 2, 2023 (the “Letter Agreement”). The Subscription

Shares shall not be subject to any additional transfer restrictions or any additional lock-up provisions, earn outs, or other contingencies and shall promptly be registered pursuant to the first registration statement filed by the Company or the surviving entity in relation to the Business Combination;

(c)

(d)

any amounts funded by the Sponsor to the Company under a Drawdown Request shall not accrue interest and shall be promptly repaid by the Company to the Sponsor upon the Business Combination Closing. Following receipt of such sums from the Company, and in any event within 5 business days of the Business Combination Closing, the Sponsor or Company shall pay to the Investor, an amount equal to all Capital Calls funded under the Subscription Agreement (the “Business Combination Payment”). The Investor may elect at the Business Combination Closing to receive such Business Combination Payment in cash or Class A ordinary shares at a rate of 1 Class A ordinary share for each $10 of the Capital Calls funded under the Subscription Agreement. If the Company liquidates without consummating the Business Combination, any amounts remaining in the Sponsor or Company’s cash accounts, not including the Company’s Trust Account, will be paid to the Investor within five (5) days of the liquidation; and

(e)	on the Business Combination Closing, the Sponsor will pay the Investor an amount equal to the reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Investor in connection with the Subscription Agreement not to exceed $5,000.

In connection with the Subscription Agreement, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note, dated as of July 25, 2023, in the principal amount of up to $1,090,000 to Sponsor, which may be drawn down by the Company from time to time prior to the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination. As noted, an initial draw in the amount of $750,000 occurred on July 25, 2023. The note does not bear interest, matures on the date of consummation of the Business Combination and is subject to customary events of default. The note will be repaid only to the extent that the Company has funds available to it outside of its trust account established in connection with its initial public offering, and is convertible into private placement warrants of the Company at a price of $1.50 per warrant at the option of the Sponsor.

On July [ ], 2023 and August 16, 2023, the board of directors of the Company elected to extend the date by which the Company must complete an initial business combination, on each occasion by one month, from July 18, 2023 to September 18, 2023. As a result, the Sponsor deposited $160,000 into the Trust Account on each occasion.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 11, 2021 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We intend to consummate an initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our Public Offering (the “Public Offering”) that closed on March 18, 2021 (the “Closing Date”) and the Private Placement, and from additional issuances of, if any, our equity and our debt, or a combination of cash, equity and debt.

Recent Developments

On June 15, 2023, we received a termination notice (the “Notice”) from Sakuu Corporation (“Sakuu”), that terminated, effective June 14, 2023, the Business Combination Agreement, dated March 2, 2023, by and among Plum, Sakuu, Plum SPAC 1 Merger Sub, Inc. and Plum SPAC 2 Merger Sub, LLC (the “Business Combination Agreement”) and (b) in light of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, Plum’s Board of Directors determined that it will not extend the deadline for Plum to consummate a business combination beyond June 18, 2023 and proceed to liquidate and dissolve Plum as soon as practicable in accordance with Plum’s Charter.

Subsequent we were approached with an opportunity to explore a business combination with another operating company. our Board of Directors promptly met and discussed the merits of this opportunity, and thereafter decided to extend the deadline to consummate a business combination transaction for another month beyond June 18, 203, to provide us with an additional thirty (30) days to properly investigate and evaluate this and other opportunities for a business combination transaction. Accordingly, we will now have until September 18, 2023 to consummate a business combination transaction.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we had a loss from operations of $578,954. In addition to the loss from operations, we recognized other income $4,847,438 consisting of an unrealized loss on our warrant liabilities of $1,978,245, change in fair value of FPA of $633,205 change in fair value of SPA of $2,655,232, interest expense – debt discount of $1,045,564 and interest earned on cash held in the Trust Account of $626,320.

As of June 30, 2023, $55,154,617 was held in the Trust Account, cash outside of Trust Account of $20,880 and $3,853,954 accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay taxes, if any, the proceeds in the Trust will not be released from the Trust Account (1) to us, until the completion of our initial Business Combination, or (2) to the Public Shareholders, until the earliest of (i) the completion of our initial Business Combination, and then only in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholders properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if we do not complete an initial Business Combination within 27 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 36 months from the closing of our initial public offering if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination) (the “Combination Period”) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, and (iii) the redemption of the public shares if we have not consummated a Business Combination within the Combination Period, subject to applicable law.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of June 30, 2023, we had cash outside our Trust Account of $20,880, available for working capital needs. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

In March and April 2021, we sold 31,921,634 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $319,216,340. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 26,693,416 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of $10.23 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of $273,112,311.62.

Additionally, we sold 6,256,218 warrants (the “Private Warrants”), at a price of $1.50 per Private Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $9,384,327. Following the sale of our Units and the sale of the Private Warrants, a total of $319,216,340 ($10.00 per Unit) was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $18,336,269 in Initial Public Offering related costs, including $6,384,327 of underwriting fees, $11,172,572 of deferred underwriting discount and $779,370 of other costs with $564,701 which was allocated to the Public Warrants and Private Warrants, included in the consolidated statements of operations and $17,771,568 included in temporary equity.

On January 31, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Dinsdale Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to Mike Dinsdale. The Dinsdale Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon consummation of a Business Combination. The Company may draw on the Dinsdale Note from time to time, in increments of not less than $50,000, until the earlier of March 18, 2023 or the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Dinsdale Note shall not be repaid and all amounts owed under it will be forgiven. Upon the consummation of a Business

Table of Contents

Combination, the Mr. Dinsdale shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the principal balance of the Dinsdale Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants (as defined in that certain Warrant Agreement, dated March 18, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company), at a price of $1.50 per private placement warrant. The Dinsdale Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Dinsdale Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Dinsdale Note becoming immediately due and payable. The Dinsdale Note was issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On July 11, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Burns Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to Ursula Burns. The Burns Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon consummation of a Business Combination. Up to fifty percent (50%) of the principal of the Burns Note may be drawn down from time to time at the Company’s option prior to August 25, 2022 and any or all of the remaining undrawn principal of the Burns Note may be drawn down from time to time at the Company’s option after August 25, 2022, in each case in increments of not less than $50,000. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Burns Note shall not be repaid and all amounts owed under it will be forgiven. Upon the consummation of a Business Combination, Ms. Burns shall have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the principal balance of the Burns Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants (as defined in that certain Warrant Agreement, dated March 18, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company), at a price of $1.50 per private placement warrant. The Burns Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Burns Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Burns Note becoming immediately due and payable.

On March 16, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the total principal amount of up to $250,000 (the “Roy Note”) to Mr. Kanishka Roy, individually and as a member of Plum Partners LLC. Mr. Roy funded the initial principal amount of $250,000 on March 14, 2023. The Roy Note does not bear interest and matures upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination with one or more businesses or entities. In the event the Company does not consummate a business combination, the Roy Note will be repaid upon the Company’s liquidation only from amounts remaining outside of the Company’s trust account, if any. The Roy Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Roy Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Roy Note becoming immediately due and payable.

As of June 30, 2023, we had investments held in the Trust Account of $55,154,617 (including $8,410,589 of income) consisting of money market funds. Income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used to pay taxes. Through June 30, 2023, we withdrew an amount of $273,112,312 in interest earned on the Trust Account in connection with redemption.

For six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $431,465. Net income of $3,556,206 was primarily offset by an unrealized loss on our warrant liabilities of $44,241, change in fair value of FPA of $308,114, issuance of FPA of $308,114, reduction of deferred underwriter fee payable of $328,474, change in fair value of SPA of $2,636,955 interest expense – debt discount of $1,348,033 and interest earned on cash held in the Trust Account of $3,715,287. Other operational activities including amounts due to related party generated $1,300,771.

For six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $533,488. Net income of $5,250,508 was primarily offset by an unrealized gain on the change in the fair value of our warrant liabilities of $6,824,630 and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $479,450. Other operational activities including amounts due to related party generated $1,520,084.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, to acquire a target business and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our equity or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial 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 our growth strategies.

Further, our Sponsor, officers and directors or their respective affiliates have committed to loan us funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If we complete a business combination, we will repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that a business combination does not close, we may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, or converted upon consummation of a business combination into additional Private Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Warrant. As of June 30, 2023, $1,000,000 Working Capital Loans have been issued (Note 5).

Table of Contents

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern”, management has determined that the Company has and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Accounts. In addition, following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Further, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by September 18, 2023, or March 18, 2024 if elected to extend the Termination Date up to nine times by an additional one month each time (the “Combination Period”), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution as well as the Company’s working capital deficit raise 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 the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2023. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial agreements involving assets.

Contractual obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Warrant Liabilities

We account for the Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the Warrants 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 Warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the Warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the holders of the Warrants 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 issuance of the Warrants and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, liability-classified warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of such warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. We account for the Public and Private warrants in accordance

Table of Contents

with guidance contained in ASC815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability.

Convertible Promissory Note

The Company accounts for its convertible promissory note under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). Under 815-15-25, the election can be at the inception of a financial instrument to account for the instrument under the fair value option under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825”). The Company has made such election for its convertible promissory note. Using fair value option, the convertible promissory note is required to be recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance and each balance sheet date thereafter. Differences between the face value of the note and fair value at issuance are recognized as either an expense in the condensed statements of operations (if issued at a premium) or as a capital contribution (if issued at a discount). Changes in the estimated fair value of the notes are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the condensed statements of operations.

Redeemable Shares of Class A Ordinary shares

All of the 31,921,634 shares of Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold as part of the Public Offering contain a redemption feature as described in the prospectus for the Public Offering. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. The Charter provides a minimum net tangible asset threshold of $5,000,001. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares will be affected by charges against additional paid-in capital.

Net Income Per Ordinary Share

The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The potential ordinary shares for outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s shares were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 because the warrants are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. As a result, diluted net income per common share is the same as basic net income per common share for the periods.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023 due to the material weakness in our internal controls during the year ended 2022 over accounting and reporting complex financial instruments including the proper classification of warrants as liabilities and redeemable Class A ordinary

Table of Contents

shares as temporary equity and prepaid expenses between current and non-current, and under accrual of liabilities. These material weaknesses in our internal controls have not been remediated as of June 30, 2023. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Regarding the restatement to the September 30, 2021 quarterly financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Q, as filed with the SEC on November 22, 2021, the change in fair value of warrants on the Company’s condensed statement of operations for the three months ended September 30 2021 and for the period from January 11, 2021 (inception) to September 30 2021 and warrant liability on the Company’s condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 were misstated. The Company restated its financial statements in an amendment to the Q3 Form 10-Q. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Regarding the restatements to the March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021 quarterly financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Qs, as filed with the SEC on June 4, 2021 and August 16, 2021, respectively, as well as the Company’s balance sheet included on the Company’s Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2021, certain redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. The Company had previously classified a portion of the Class A ordinary shares in permanent equity. The Company restated its financial statements to classify all Class A ordinary shares as temporary equity and any related impact, as the threshold in its charter would not change the nature of the underlying shares as redeemable and thus would be required to be disclosed outside of permanent equity. It is noted that the non-cash adjustments to the financial statements do not impact the amounts previously reported for our cash and cash equivalents or total assets. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. In light of the material weakness, we have enhanced our processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
