Business Description

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations Chain Bridge I (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 21, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. All activity for the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected a December 31st fiscal year end. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 9, 2021. On November 15, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), including 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $5.7 million, of which approximately $254,000 was for offering costs allocated to derivative warrant liabilities. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 10,550,000 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to Chain Bridge Group, predecessor in interest to CBG Omega LLC (“CBG”) and CB Co-Investment LLC (“CB Co-Investment”), generating proceeds of approximately $10.6 million (Note 4). In addition, upon closing of the Initial Public Offering, CB Co-Investment loaned the Company $1,150 thousand at no interest (the “CB Co-Investment Loan”). On November 16, 2022, CBG agreed to loan the Company up to $1,200 thousand pursuant to an unsecured non-interest bearing convertible promissory note (“Additional Convertible Note”). Such Additional Convertible Note will not be repaid in the event that the Company is unable to close a Business Combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account (as defined below) to do so. Such Additional Convertible Note would either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, or, at the discretion of CBG, converted into additional warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, which warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The Additional Convertible Note was terminated on December 29, 2023. Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, $234.6 million ($10.20 per Unit) of net proceeds, including the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement and the proceeds from the convertible promissory note issued to CB Co-Investment, were placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee and invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
