  PART II
  INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
  ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.
  The following documents are incorporated
  herein by reference:
  (a) The Registrant's
  registration statement on
  Form F-1
  , as amended (Securities Act File No. 333- 274857), initially filed with the Commission on October 4,
  2023 and the final prospectus related thereto dated September 9, 2024, filed with the Commission on September 10, 2024 pursuant to Rule
  424(b) under the Securities Act, which contains the Registrant's audited financial statements for the latest fiscal year ended December

  ,

  2024
  and
  December 31, 2024
  ; and
  (c) The description of the
  Registrant's Class B ordinary shares contained in the Registrant's registration statement on
  Form 8-A
  under the Securities
  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") filed on October 24, 2023, as modified by any amendment or report filed
  for the purpose of updating such description (Exchange Act Registration No. 001- 41848).
  All documents subsequently
  filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment
  which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed

  Any statement contained in
  a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of
  this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is
  incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein, modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or
  superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
  ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
  Not applicable.
  ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
  Not applicable.
  ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
  Cayman Islands law does not
  limit the extent to which a company's articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except
  to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification
  against civil fraud or the consequences or committing a crime. The Registrant's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of
  Association provide for indemnification of directors and officers against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses,
  damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by such directors and officers, other than by reason of such directors and officers'
  own dishonesty, wilful default or fraud, in or about the conduct of the Registrant's business or affairs (including as a result
  of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of his or her duties, powers, authorities or discretions, including without
  prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by such directors and officers in defending
  (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning the Registrant or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman
  Islands or elsewhere.
  II-
  1
  Pursuant to the indemnification
  agreements, the form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Registrant's registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File
  No. 333- 274857), the Registrant has agreed to indemnify its directors and officers against, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
  law, any and all expenses and liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by reason of such director's or officer's corporate
  status.
  Pursuant to the 2023 Equity
  Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, the Registrant has agreed to indemnify its plan administrator members (and/or its delegates)
  against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with the operation, administration or interpretation of
  the plan.
  The Registrant's Policy
  for the Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation prohibits indemnification for compensation subject to recovery under the policy.
  The form of underwriting agreement
  filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registrant's registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333- 274857) also provides for
  indemnification of the Registrant and the Registrant's officers and directors.
  Insofar as indemnification
  for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the Registrant's directors, officers or persons controlling
  the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification
  is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
  ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
  Not applicable.
  ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
  The Exhibits listed on the
  accompanying Exhibit Index are filed as a part of, or incorporated by reference into, this Registration Statement (See Exhibit Index below).
  ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
  (a)    The
  undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
  (1)    To
  file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
  (i)    To
  include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
  (ii)    To
  reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
  amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration
  Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
  offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
  may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
  and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Filing Fee
  Tables" in the effective registration statement; and

  (iii)    To
  include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
  material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
  provided
  ,
  however
  ,
  that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
  paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
  15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
  (2)    That,
  for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
  registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
  be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  (3)    To
  remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination
  of the offering.
  (b)    The
  undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
  Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of
  an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this
  Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
  of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  (c)    Insofar
  as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
  the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission
  such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
  claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
  officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel
  the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
  by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
