DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS Mars Acquisition Corp. (“Mars”) is a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated as a blank check company on April 23, 2021. Mars was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”). Although Mars is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, Mars intends to focus on opportunities in cryptocurrency and blockchain, automobiles, healthcare, financial technology, cyber security, cleantech, software, Internet and artificial intelligence, specialty manufacturing and any other related technology innovations market. On September 5, 2023, a Business Combination Agreement was entered into by Mars and ScanTech Identification Beam Systems, LLC (“ScanTech”), among others (see Note 6). At September 30, 2023, Mars had not yet commenced operations. All activity through September 30, 2023 relates to Mars’ formation and initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” or “IPO”), which is described below. Mars will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial Business Combination, at the earliest. Mars will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. Mars has selected September 30 as its fiscal year end date. The registration statement for Mars’ Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 9, 2023. On February 16, 2023, Mars consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 Units (“Units” and, with respect to the Ordinary Shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, including 900,000 Units that were issued pursuant to the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, Mars consummated the Private Placement (“Private Placement”) of 391,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit to Mars’ sponsor, Mars Capital Holding Corporation, a British Virgin Islands company (“Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $3,910,000 (see Note 4). Offering costs amounted to $4,398,891 consisting of $1,430,000 of cash underwriting fees, non-cash underwriting fees of $2,724,927 represented by the fair value of 276,000 representative shares issued to the underwriter (see Note 6), and $243,964 of other offering costs. Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, $70,380,000 of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a Trust Account (the “Trust Account”) and may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, and will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account. Mars’ management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of its Initial Public Offering and Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. Mars’ initial Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on interest earned in the Trust Account) at the time Mars signs a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, Mars will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act. Mars will provide holders of its Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) 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) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether Mars will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by Mars, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially approximately $10.20 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Mars to pay its tax obligations). If a shareholder vote is not required and Mars does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, Mars will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association: (1) conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, which regulate issuer tender offers; and (2) file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies. Such provisions may be amended if a special resolution passed by holders of at least two-thirds of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares who, being entitled to do so, attend and vote at a general meeting for which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given or by way of unanimous written resolution of all of our shareholders. Whether or not Mars maintains its registration under the Exchange Act or our listing on Nasdaq, Mars will provide its Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares by one of the two methods listed above. Upon the public announcement of our initial Business Combination, if Mars elects to conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, Mars or our Sponsor will terminate any plan established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 to purchase our Ordinary Shares in the open market, in order to comply with Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act. In the event Mars conducts redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, our offer to redeem will remain open for at least 20 business days, in accordance with Rule 14e-1(a) under the Exchange Act, and Mars will not be permitted to complete its initial Business Combination until the expiration of the tender offer period. In addition, the tender offer will be conditioned on Public Shareholders not tendering more than a specified number of Public Shares, which number will be based on the requirement that we will only redeem our Public Shares so long as (after such redemption) our net tangible assets will be at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon consummation of our initial Business Combination and after payment of underwriters’ fees and commissions (so that we are not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to our initial Business Combination. If the Public Shareholders tender more shares than Mars has offered to purchase, Mars will withdraw the tender offer and not complete the initial Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law or stock exchange listing requirements, or Mars decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other legal reasons, Mars will conduct the redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules; and file proxy materials with the SEC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Mars seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and Mars does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Mars’ prior written consent. Mars will have only 12 months from the closing of this offering (or 18 months from the closing of this offering, if Mars extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination) to complete its initial Business Combination. If Mars is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within such 12-month period (or 18-month period), Mars will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten Mars’ Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with Mars, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of our initial Business Combination. In addition, Mars’ initial shareholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares held by them if Mars fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame. However, if Mars’ Sponsor or any of its officers, directors or affiliates acquires Public Shares in or after this offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if Mars fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame. Liquidity and management’s plan In connection with Mars’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management believes that the funds which Mars has available following the completion of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement may not be enough to sustain operations for a period of one year from the issuance date of these financial statements. If Mars is unable to complete the Extension or the Business Combination due to a lack of sufficient funds, Mars may be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, Mars may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations. There is no assurance that Mars’ plans to consummate a business combination will be successful within the Combination Period as described above. As a result, there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statement are issued or are available to be issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty. |
