As there were sufficient votes at the time of
the Meeting to approve each of the above proposals, the “Adjournment Proposal” described in the Definitive Proxy Statement
was not presented to CEPT Shareholders. In connection with the Meeting, CEPT Shareholders holding 6,842,508 CEPT Class A Ordinary Shares
exercised their rights to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the trust account of CEPT (the “Trust Account”).
As a result, approximately $72.5 (approximately $10.60 per share, inclusive of the $0.15 per share to be funded by the Sponsor
pursuant to the Sponsor Note) will be removed from the Trust Account to pay such redeeming CEPT Shareholders. Following such redemptions,
CEPT will have 17,157,492 Public Shares outstanding.

In light of receipt of the requisite approvals
by CEPT Shareholders described above, CEPT expects the Business Combination to be completed promptly following the satisfaction or waiver
of the other conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination.

risk that the Transactions may not be completed by CEPT’s business combination deadline; the failure by the parties to satisfy

SEC.
The foregoing list of risk factors is not exhaustive.
You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors”
section of the Definitive Proxy Statement and the final prospectus of PubCo, dated as of June 5, 2026 and as further supplemented, and
other documents filed by CEPT and/or PubCo from time to time with the SEC. These filings do or will identify and address other important
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the
date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and none of PubCo, CEPT or Securitize
assumes any obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise. None of PubCo, CEPT or Securitize gives any assurance that any of PubCo, CEPT or Securitize will achieve
its expectations. The inclusion of any statement in this Report does not constitute an admission by PubCo, CEPT or Securitize or any other
person that the events or circumstances described in such statement are material.
