The maximum aggregate amount of Deposits shall be $300,000.
The foregoing description of the Third Extension Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Extension Note, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Operating Expense Promissory Note
On June 5, 2024, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Operating Expense Promissory Note”) to the Payee, pursuant to which the Company may borrow an aggregate of $300,000 from the Payee in order to fund costs and expenses related to the Company’s daily operations and due diligence in connection with a potential business combination and which the Company shall repay on the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination. If the Company has not consummated an initial business combination on or prior to December 31, 2024, then Payee shall have no recourse against the Company and all outstanding amounts of principal and accrued and unpaid interest payable under the Operating Expense Promissory Note shall immediately terminate and all related indebtedness shall be deemed cancelled. Under the terms of the Operating Expense Promissory Note, the Company may request from time to time prior to the maturity date, up to $300,000 in drawdowns on the principal (each, a “Drawdown Request”). Each Drawdown Request must state the amount to be drawn down, and must not be an amount less than $10,000 unless agreed upon by the Company and the Payee. Payee shall fund each Drawdown Request no later than (3) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns outstanding under the Operating Expense Promissory Note at any time may not exceed $300,000. No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to the Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by the Company. The interest rate applicable to drawdowns pursuant to the Operating Expense Promissory Note is equal to twelve percent (12%) for the Interest Period (as defined in the Operating Expense Promissory Note) per annum. The Operating Expense Promissory Note may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Operating Expense Promissory Note to include the failure to make required payments, voluntary bankruptcy and involuntary bankruptcy).
