Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As approved by its stockholders at the special meeting of stockholders held on January 10, 2025 (the “Special Meeting”), Quetta Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an amendment to the investment management trust agreement dated as of January 10, 2025, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Amendment”). Pursuant to the Trust Amendment, the Company has the right to extend the time to complete a business combination on a month-to-month basis, beginning on January 10, 2025, until October 10, 2026, by depositing $60,000 for each such one-month extension into the Company’s trust Account (the “Extension Payment”). In addition, in the event that the Company fails to timely make a payment for any given month during the twenty-one (21) month period the Company elects to make an extension, the Company shall have a period of forty five (45) days to pay any applicable past due payment, which shall be calculated to be equal to the principal of the past due payment, plus any accrued but unpaid interest in the amount of three percent three percent (3%) (the “Cure Period”). If the Company fails to make any applicable past due payment during the Cure Period, then the Company shall immediately cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up, and liquidate and dissolve with the same effect as if the Company failed to complete a business combination within thirty-six (36) months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering.
The foregoing description of the Trust Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Trust Amendment, filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.
The Company has completed an initial payment of $60,000.00 pursuant to the Trust Amendment and such initial payment has been deposited into the Company's trust account to extend the time the Company has to complete a business combination until February 10, 2025.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
As approved by its stockholders at the Special Meeting held on January 10, 2025, on the same date, the Company filed an amendment to its second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “A&R Certificate of Incorporation”) with the Delaware Secretary of State (such proposal, “Extension Amendment Proposal”), to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from January 10, 2025 until October 10, 2026 (thirty six (36) months from the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering), on a month-by-month basis, up to a total of twenty-one (21) times, by depositing $60,000 into the Company’s trust account for each such one-month extension. Any applicable excise tax and dissolution expenses shall be paid by the sponsor, Yocto Investments LLC (the “Sponsor”), and shall not be deducted from the Company’s trust account.
Please note, in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement, originally filed on December 23, 2024, and amended on December 26, 2024, we hereby correct a typographical error whereby we mistakenly refer to the second amended and restated certificate of incorporation attached as Exhibit 3.1, as the third amended and restated certificate of incorporation.
