Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

On May 23, 2025, Chenghe Acquisition II Co. (“SPAC”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) to (i) approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2024 (as may be amended or restated from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among SPAC, Polibeli Group Ltd (the “Company”), and Polibeli Merger One Limited (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will be merged with and into SPAC with SPAC being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger” or the “Business Combination”), and approve the transactions contemplated thereby; and (ii) approve and adopt the Plan of Merger to be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, the Merger, each as more fully described in the proxy statement/prospectus of the Company (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), filed with United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 1, 2025. All capitalized terms used herein not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

 

Company Capital Restructuring

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, on the Closing Date, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, the following actions will take place or be effected (in the order set forth below):

 

(a)The amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the “A&R Company Listing Articles”) substantially in the form of Annex B attached to the registration statement on the Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form F-4 (Registration No. 333-285821) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the SEC on April 25, 2025 will be adopted and become effective.

 

(b)Immediately prior to the Recapitalization (as defined below), the authorized share capital of the Company will be re-designated as (i) 3,000,000,000 shares of Company Class A ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.00001 each (each, a “Company Class A Ordinary Share”), (ii) 1,000,000,000 shares of the Company Class B ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.00001 each (together with the Company Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Company Ordinary Shares”), and (iii) 1,000,000,000 shares of such class or classes (however designated) as the Company Board may determine, from time to time, of a par value of US$0.00001 each in accordance with the A&R Company Listing Articles (the “Re-designation”), such that the authorized share capital of the Company will be US$50,000.

 

(c)Immediately following the Re-designation, each issued Company Ordinary Share will be recapitalized by way of a repurchase in exchange for the issuance of such number of Company Ordinary Shares equal to the Recapitalization Factor (as defined below) (i.e., one such Company Ordinary Share multiplied by the Recapitalization Factor) (the “Recapitalization”), subject to any adjustment in relation to the issuance of fractional shares as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

 

The “Recapitalization Factor” is the quotient obtained by dividing the Base Equity Value by the quotient of dividing the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares by $10.00. “Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares” means, without duplication, the aggregate number of Company Ordinary Shares that are (i) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Recapitalization and (ii) issuable upon the exercise, exchange or conversion of any other equity securities of the Company that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Recapitalization. “Base Equity Value” means U.S.$3,600,000,000.

 

The Merger

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time, and in respect of the Unit Separation (as defined below) and the SPAC Class B Conversion (as defined below), immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, (i) each outstanding SPAC unit (“SPAC Unit”), consisting of one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (as defined below) and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant, will be automatically separated (the “Unit Separation”) and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant; (ii) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share (as defined below) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time will be automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (the “SPAC Class B Conversion”) and each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share will no longer be issued and outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; (iii) each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (A) issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) will be converted into the right to receive one (1) Company Class A Ordinary Share; and (iv) each SPAC Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised will be automatically converted into the right to receive a Company Warrant.

 

At the Closing, in accordance with the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and SPAC will be the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

At the Meeting, holders of at least 5,636,590 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (including SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares held through SPAC Units) and 2,875,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares were represented in person or by proxy, representing approximately 72.07% of the total SPAC Ordinary Shares, which constituted a quorum.

 

Set forth below are the proposals voted upon at the Meeting and the final voting results.

 

Proposal 1 – The Business Combination Proposal. To consider and vote upon a proposal to (i) approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement and (ii) approve the transactions contemplated thereby (such proposal, the “Business Combination Proposal”).

7,664,886   846,704   0

 

Proposal No. 3 – The Adjournment Proposal. SPAC had solicited proxies in favor of an adjournment proposal that would have given SPAC authority to adjourn the Meeting to solicit additional proxies. As sufficient shares were voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the Merger Proposal, this proposal was not voted upon at the Meeting.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

Redemptions

 

In connection with the Meeting, holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares had the right to elect to redeem all or a portion of their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for a per share price calculated in accordance with SPAC’s third amended and restated memorandum of association. SPAC’s public shareholders exercised their right to redeem 8,488,632 SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in SPAC’s trust account. As a result, approximately $88,621,318.08 (approximately $10.44 per share) will be removed from SPAC’s trust account to pay such holders, subject to further redemption reversal requests (if any) received and approved by SPAC prior to the Closing.

 

Based on the results of the Meeting, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other Closing conditions as described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Business Combination is expected to be consummated on June 6, 2025.
