Aperture AC ^{Filed Terms, Nasdaq: APURU}

We are a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination. We believe that the current trends in the digital asset industry provide for attractive acquisition opportunities, which are consistent with our acquisition strategy. The digital asset ecosystem includes companies at development stages spanning from the startup phase to a greater degree of maturity in the scale-up business phase. These companies are innovating across finance, gaming, computing, digital identity and cross-border payments. This ever-expanding scope opens new pathways for capital formation, digital infrastructure development and adoption. One area of development is the tokenization of traditional financial instruments, a mechanism which takes real-world assets, such as government bonds, investment funds and real estate, and represents them digitally on a blockchain network. Tokenization can improve transparency, security, and traceability; it can reduce transaction and settlement time and enable the possibility of fractional ownership. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has noted that tokenized platforms could significantly modernize how securities are traded and settled.
