Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 29, 2025, the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-287505) (the “Registration Statement”) relating to the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of A Paradise Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. On July 31, 2025, the Company consummated the IPO of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, no par value (“Class A Ordinary Share”), and one right (“Right”) to receive one-eighth of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. The Company has granted the underwriter of the IPO a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 units at the IPO price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement:

The above descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the applicable agreement, each of which is incorporated by reference herein and filed herewith as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, respectively.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On July 31, 2025 and in connection with the IPO, the Company consummated (i) the purchase by the Sponsor of 400,000 private placement units (the “Sponsor Private Placement Units”) on a private placement basis that occurred simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO pursuant to the Sponsor Unit Subscription Agreement, and (ii) the purchase by the Underwriter of 200,000 private placement units (the “Underwriter Private Placement Units” and together with the Sponsor Placement Units, the “Private Placement Units”) on a private placement basis that occurred simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO pursuant to the Underwriter Unit Subscription Agreement. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and one right to receive one-eight (1/8) of a Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Private Placement Units (and underlying securities) are identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement.

Additionally, the Sponsor and the Underwriter agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Registration Statement) until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The Sponsor and the Underwriter was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Placement Units.

No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 5.03. Amendments to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; Change in Fiscal Year.
