Please revise to state the actual aggregate amount of promissory notes that have been issued to date instead of stating that the amount is over US$3.5 million. Parent Representative, page 28 3.We note your revised disclosure regarding the Parent Representative and Seller Representative in response to previous comment 13. Please expand on these sections to fully explain the roles of the Parent Representative and Seller Representative after the closing of the Business Combination.

Please include disclosure regarding the ongoing role of the Sponsor when discussing potential conflicts of interest. Finally, please expand on your statement that the Sponsor "expects to act as the representative of the previous stockholders of Globalink" to clarify if the Sponsor will have any specific fiduciary or contractual duties to the previous stockholders of Globalink in its capacity as the Parent Representative. Fairness Opinion, page 35 4.We note your disclosure that "[t]he Globalink Board received a draft of fairness opinion from Morison Advisory Sdn. Bhd. in June 2024" but that "[t]he Globalink Board decided not to rely on the fairness opinion for determining the valuation of Alps Holdco." You further disclose that the "Globalink Board did not put much weight in considering the draft fairness opinion in determining the valuation of Alps Holdco." It appears that the Globalink Board received an opinion that is materially related to the transaction.

We also note your statement on page 121 that the Globalink Board considered the PIPE Investment to be the primary basis for the pre-money valuation of Alps of approximately $1.6 billion. Please tell us whether the potential PIPE Investors received any financial projections of Alps. If so, please provide us with your analysis of why disclosure of the projections is not required if they were considered by the potential PIPE Investors, the valuation in the PIPE Investment was the primary basis for the valuation in the Business Combination, and the availability and terms of the PIPE Investment were given high significance by the Globalink Board in approving the Business Combination. We note your revised disclosure in response to previous comment 40 regarding the matters the Board considered in determining that the terms of the PIPE Investment are fair and reasonable to Globalink.
