Material Changes and Transactions
The Company extended its deadline to complete a business combination from March 3, 2026, to April 3, 2026. This extension was facilitated by Marine Thinking Inc. paying the $150,000 monthly extension fee into the Trust Account. In exchange, Eureka Acquisition Corp issued the Extension Note to Marine Thinking. The filing also notes the unregistered sale of equity securities issuable upon conversion of the note, which are subject to transfer restrictions until the business combination is completed.

The Company intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 containing a proxy statement/prospectus for shareholder approval of the proposed transaction with Marine Thinking. The filing includes extensive forward-looking statements regarding the transaction's consummation. Key risks identified include:
- Failure to obtain shareholder or regulatory approval.
- Uncertainty regarding the timing of the transaction.
- Potential shareholder litigation or termination of the agreement.
- General economic conditions and catastrophic events.
The filing explicitly states it is not an offer to sell securities or a solicitation of a proxy.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the status of the Form S-4 registration statement and the upcoming shareholder vote on the Marine Thinking transaction.
- Confirm the total number of Units Marine Thinking may convert the $150,000 note into (calculated as $150,000 / $10.00 = 15,000 Units).
- Monitor the Trust Account balance to ensure sufficient funds remain for potential further monthly extensions if the April 3, 2026 deadline is not met.
- Review the definitive proxy statement/prospectus for detailed terms of the business combination and any changes to the Extension Note.
