Key Details
- Transaction date: June 4, 2026 (Form 4 filed June 8, 2026 — within the two-business-day filing window).
- Reported trades: Purchase (code P) of 262,500 private units and 590,625 restricted Class A ordinary shares (total 853,125 Class A shares); derivative entries reflect the 262,500 warrants/rights included in the private units.
- Aggregate purchase price (per filing footnote): $2,625,000 for the private units and restricted shares.
- Shares owned after transaction: Mallios (as a managing member) may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the Sponsor’s holdings — 853,125 Class A shares plus the 262,500 associated warrants/rights (per footnotes).
- Beneficial ownership note: Mallios and the CFO are managing members of the Sponsor and may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held by the Sponsor; they disclaim beneficial ownership except for any pecuniary interest.
- Derivative specifics: Warrants in the private units become exercisable the later of (i) 30 days after the issuer completes its initial business combination or (ii) June 4, 2027, and expire five years after the completion of the initial business combination. Each right converts automatically into one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the initial business combination.
Context
- This was a purchase (often viewed as a bullish signal because insiders are acquiring), but the securities were bought by the issuer’s sponsor entity rather than directly by Mallios. The filing discloses that Mallios may be deemed to share beneficial ownership through his role with the sponsor, and he disclaims ownership beyond any pecuniary interest. The private units contain warrants and rights with conversion/exercise timing tied to the company’s future business combination.
