Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed business combination, PubCo and Terra Quantum intend to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form F-4 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”), which will include a proxy statement/prospectus relating to the proposed business combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not contain all of the information that should be considered concerning the Business Combination and is not intended to form the basis of any investment decision or any other decision in respect of the Business Combination. INVESTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF AXIOM AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to shareholders of Axiom as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed business combination and related matters.

Investors and shareholders will be able to obtain free copies of the Registration Statement and the proxy statement/prospectus (when available) and other documents containing important information about Axiom, Terra Quantum, PubCo and the proposed business combination, once such documents are filed with the SEC, through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov. Investors and shareholders may also obtain copies of the documents filed with the SEC by Axiom free of charge by directing a written request to: Axiom Intelligence Acquisition Corp 1, 89 Nexus Way, Camana Bay, Grand Cayman, KY1-9009 Cayman Island, Attention: Richard Dodd, Executive Chairman/Doug Ward, Chief Executive Officer, or by visiting Axiom’s website at https://www.aiac1.com/.

NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE BUSINESS COMBINATION DESCRIBED HEREIN, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
