As previously announced by the Company (defined below) and Chenghe (defined below) on December 22, 2023, and as described in greater detail in the proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement on Form F-4, which was filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective by the SEC on December 3, 2024 (the “Form F-4”), and the definitive proxy statement filed by Chenghe with the SEC on December 3, 2024 (the “Merger Proxy Statement”), which is incorporated herein by reference, Chenghe Acquisition I Co., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“Chenghe”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2023, with FST Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (the “Company”), FST Merger Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and Femco Steel Technology Co., Ltd. (“Femco”), a company limited by shares incorporated and in existence under the laws of Taiwan with uniform commercial number of 04465819 (the “Business Combination Agreement”). The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to herein as the “Business Combination.” Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this section shall have the meanings given to such terms by the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (i) at the Closing Date, each SPAC Unit outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date was automatically detached, and the holder thereof was deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of a SPAC Warrant in accordance with the terms of the applicable SPAC Unit; (ii) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date was automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share in accordance with the terms of the SPAC Articles (such automatic conversion, the “SPAC Class B Conversion”); (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 the unit separation) that was issued and outstanding was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive one (1) CayCo Ordinary Share; and (iv)  each SPAC Warrant that was outstanding and unexercised was converted into and become the right to receive a CayCo Warrant, which is on the same terms and conditions as the applicable SPAC Warrant. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Business Combination Agreement.

On January 15, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Chenghe with Chenghe being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Chenghe changed its name to “FST Ltd.”.
