Introductory Note

On June 3, 2025, Black Spade Acquisition II Co, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of Cayman Islands (“Black Spade II” or the “Company”) consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the business combination agreement dated January 27, 2025 (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with The Generation Essentials Group (previously World Media and Entertainment Universal Inc.), an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“TGE”), and WME Merger Sub Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of WME (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Black Spade II, with Black Spade II surviving the merger (the “Merger”). Upon consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (collectively, the “Business Combination”), Black Spade II became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TGE, with the securityholders of Black Spade II becoming securityholders of TGE.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, (i) the fourth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of TGE was adopted and became effective, (ii) TGE re-designated (x) each ordinary share of TGE (other than non-voting ordinary shares) that was not held by AMTD Digital Inc. (“AMTD Digital”) into one Class A ordinary share of TGE (“TGE Class A Ordinary Share”), (y) each ordinary share of TGE (other than non-voting ordinary shares) that was held by AMTD Digital into one Class B ordinary share of TGE (“TGE Class B Ordinary Share”) and (z) each non-voting ordinary share of TGE into one non-voting preferred share of TGE (“TGE Preferred Share”) and (iii) TGE affected a share consolidation or subdivision such that (x) each TGE Class A Ordinary Share was consolidated or divided into a number of TGE Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the Adjustment Factor (as defined below), (y) each TGE Class B Ordinary Share was consolidated or divided into a number of TGE Class B Ordinary Shares equal to the Adjustment Factor and (z) each TGE Preferred Share was consolidated or divided into a number of TGE Preferred Shares equal to the Adjustment Factor (as defined below) (the actions described in item (iii), the “Recapitalization”). The “Adjustment Factor” was a number resulting from dividing the Per Share TGE Equity Value by $10.00. The “Per Share TGE Equity Value” was obtained by dividing (a) the equity value of TGE (being $488,000,000) by (b) the aggregate number of ordinary shares of TGE issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Recapitalization.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) and as a result of the Merger, (i) each Class B ordinary share of Black Spade II, par value $0.0001 per share (“BSII Class B Ordinary Shares”) that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one TGE Class A Ordinary Share; (ii) each Class A ordinary share of Black Spade II, par value $0.0001 per share (“BSII Class A Ordinary Share”) that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than such BSII Class A Ordinary Shares that are treasury shares, validly redeemed shares or BSII Dissenting Shares (as defined below)) was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one TGE Class A Ordinary Share; (iii) each BSII Class A Ordinary Share that is held as a treasury share was cancelled and ceased to exist; (iv) each issued and outstanding BSII Class A Ordinary Share that is validly redeemed was cancelled in exchange for the right to be paid a pro rata share of the aggregate amount payable with respect to the Black Spade II Shareholder Redemption; and (v) each issued and outstanding BSII Class A Ordinary Share that is held by any person who has validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their right to dissent from the Merger in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands (“BSII Dissenting Share”) was cancelled and carry no right other than the right to receive the payment of the fair value of such BSII Dissenting Share determined in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement, each issued and outstanding (i) warrant issued in Black Spade II’s initial public offering, each entitling its holder to purchase one BSII Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (“Public Warrant”) and (ii) warrant sold to Black Spade Sponsor LLC II, a limited liability company registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Sponsor”), in a private placement in connection with Black Spade II’s initial public offering, were exchanged for a corresponding warrant exercisable for one TGE Class A Ordinary Share (“TGE Warrant”). The TGE Warrant can be exercised on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination.
