Amendments to the Merger Agreement

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by A SPAC I Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “A SPAC I”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 16, 2023 A SPAC I entered into a Merger Agreement dated as of February 15, 2023, as amended by the First Amendment to Merger Agreement dated as of June 12, 2023 and the Second Amendment to Merger Agreement dated as of December 6, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among (i) A SPAC I, (ii) NewGenIvf Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“NewGen”), (iii) certain shareholders of NewGen (each, a “Principal Shareholder” and collectively, the “Principal Shareholders”), (iv) A SPAC I Mini Acquisition Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Purchaser” or “PubCo”), and (v) A SPAC I Mini Sub Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser (the “Merger Sub”).

On March 1, 2024, ASCA entered into the Third Amendment to Merger Agreement (the “Third Amendment to Merger Agreement”) with NewGen, PubCo, Merger Sub and the Principal Shareholders. As described in the Third Amendment to Merger Agreement, the Company shall issue the Commitment Shares for the Initial Tranche to JAK (as defined below).

The foregoing description of the Third Amendment to Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment to Merger Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On February 29, 2024, the Company, PubCo, NewGen, the Merger Sub, and certain buyers named therein led by JAK Opportunities VI LLC (collectively, the “Buyers” or “JAK”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to issue and sell to the Buyers, in a private placement, an aggregate of up to $3,500,000 principal amount of convertible notes (the “Notes”), consisting of two tranches: (x) an initial tranche (the “Initial Tranche”) of an aggregate principal amount of Notes of up to $1,750,000 and including an original issue discount of up to aggregate $122,500, and (2) subsequent tranches of an aggregate principal amount of Notes of up to $1,750,000 and including an original issue discount of up to aggregate $122,500. The Initial Tranche is expected to occur on the date of the closing of the Business Combination, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Concurrently with each issuance of the Notes, the Buyers will receive a certain amount of ordinary shares of the Purchaser (the “Commitment Shares”). The Commitment Shares to be issued at the Initial Tranche will be converted from NewGenIvf ordinary shares issued to JAK in February 2024 and will be equal to 295,000 ordinary shares of the Purchaser, which will be free trading at the closing of the business combination.

The Notes sold in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement are convertible into the Purchaser’s ordinary shares at an initial conversion price calculated by dividing $1,000,000,000 (“Valuation Cap”) by the number of Purchaser’s Class A Ordinary Shares on a fully diluted basis (the “Conversion Price”). The Notes have an initial maturity date of six (6) months from the issuance date. The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment from time to time for splits, dividends and similar events. The Conversion Price may also be lowered at the Company's discretion without limitation.

The Notes bear an interest rate of 12.75% per annum, payable on the last day of each quarter, except that upon an event of default, the Notes shall accrue interest at the rate of 17.75% per annum until paid in full. The Notes rank senior to all other existing indebtedness and equity of the Purchaser and are repayable at maturity at 145% of the principal amount. The Notes are prepayable at 175% of the outstanding principal amount, all outstanding and unpaid interest and all other amounts owing under the Notes with at least 30 trading days’ written notice.

The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by, among and for the benefit of the parties, as well as customary indemnification provisions and standstill restrictions for 180 days after each closing of the Notes on the Purchaser’s additional equity or debt capital raising without the consent of the Buyers.

The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Securities Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Acknowledgement Agreement

On March 1, 2024, the Company entered into an acknowledgement agreement (the “Acknowledgement Agreement”) with Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”) and NewGen related to the deferred underwriting commission owed to Chardan in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.

Pursuant to the Acknowledgement Agreement, the Company will satisfy the deferred underwriting commission at the closing of the Business Combination with NewGen, by (i) paying One Million U.S. Dollars (US $1,000,000) in cash to Chardan, (ii) issuing 1,500,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares (the “Additional Representative Shares”), and (iii) paying Chardan 30% of the gross proceeds from the post-closing financings of the Company, until the deferred underwriting commission is fully paid within 6 months of the closing. The Acknowledgement Agreement also grants Chardan certain registration rights with respect to the ordinary shares and sole right of first refusal for future financings of the Company for a period of 12 months following the closing of the business combination and other considerations not related to ASCA’s business combination with NewGenIvf.

The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the Acknowledgement Agreement and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Acknowledgement Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
