Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.
Business Combination Agreement
General Description of the Business Combination Agreement
On November 19, 2025, Blue Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Blue”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Blockfusion USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, “Blockfusion” or the “Company”), Blockfusion Data Centers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”), Atlas I Merger Sub, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“SPAC Merger Sub”) and Atlas Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Company Merger Sub” and together with SPAC Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”, and the Merger Subs collectively with Pubco, the “Company Parties”).
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) on or prior to the closing (the “Closing”, and the date and time of the Closing, the “Closing Date”) of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Transactions”), the holders of Blockfusion Series Seed Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Company Preferred Stock”) shall convert all of their issued and outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock for shares of Blockfusion Series A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Company Series A Shares”) and Blockfusion Series B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Company Series B Shares” and together with the Company Series A Shares, the “Company Common Stock”), at the applicable conversion ratio (including any accrued or declared but unpaid dividends) as set forth in Blockfusion’s certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Preferred Conversion”), (ii) and on the Closing Date, (A) SPAC Merger Sub will merge with and into Blue, with Blue continuing as the surviving entity (the “SPAC Merger”) and, as a result of which, each issued and outstanding security of Blue immediately prior to the effective time of the SPAC Merger shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled in exchange for which the security holders of Blue shall receive substantially equivalent securities of Pubco, (B) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into Blockfusion, with Blockfusion continuing as the surviving entity (the “Company Merger”, and together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers”), and as a result of which each issued and outstanding security of Blockfusion immediately prior to the effective time of the Company Merger shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled in exchange for which the security holders of Blockfusion shall receive shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pubco (“Pubco Common Stock”), with holders of Company Series B Shares receiving shares of Pubco Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which will have the same economic rights as the Pubco Class A Shares, but will have the right to 20 votes per share (the “Pubco Class B Shares”) for such Company Class B Shares and holders of Company Series A Shares receiving Pubco Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Pubco Class A Shares”) for such Company Series A Shares. As a result of the Mergers and the other Transactions, Blue and Blockfusion will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of Pubco, all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, and Pubco will become a publicly traded company.
Additionally, at the effective time of the Mergers (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Option”) will be assumed by and become an option of Pubco (each, an “Assumed Option”) containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Company Options, provided that each Assumed Option will be exercisable for the number of Pubco Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) multiplied by the number of Company Class A Shares subject to the Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, rounded down to the nearest whole number, at an exercise price equal to the per share exercise price of the Company Option divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.
Additionally, at the Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised warrant to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Warrant”) will be assumed by and become a warrant to purchase Pubco Class A Shares (each, an “Assumed Warrant”) containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Company Warrants, provided that each Assumed Warrant will be exercisable for the number of Pubco Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) multiplied by the number of Company Class A Shares subject to the Company Warrant as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, rounded up to the nearest whole share, at an exercise price equal to the per share exercise price of the Company Warrant divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole cent.
1
Consideration
The aggregate consideration to be delivered to the security holders of Blockfusion as of the Effective Time (collectively, the “Company Security Holders”) will be a number of newly issued shares of Pubco Common Stock equal to Four Hundred Fifty Million U.S. Dollars ($450,000,000) (the “Merger Consideration”), with each holder of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Stockholder”) receiving for each share of Company Common Stock held (after giving effect to the Preferred Conversion), a number of shares of Pubco Common Stock equal to (i) the Per Share Price, divided by (ii) the Redemption Price (the “Exchange Ratio”), with holders of Company Series B Shares receiving shares of Pubco Class B Shares and holders of Company Series A Shares receiving Pubco Class A Shares, divided by the per share price at which each SPAC Public Share (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) is redeemed in the Redemption (as defined below) (the “Redemption Price”).
The “Per Share Price” is an amount equal to (a) the Merger Consideration divided by (b) the Fully-Diluted Company Shares. The “Fully-Diluted Company Shares” means (a) the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the Preferred Conversion), plus (b) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon, or pursuant to, the exercise of Company Options that are issued and outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, treating such outstanding and vested Company Options as having been exercised in full (calculated using the treasury stock method of accounting), plus (c) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon, or pursuant to, the exercise of Company Warrants that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, treating such Company Warrants as having been exercised in full (calculated using the treasury stock method of accounting).
Representations and Warranties
The Business Combination Agreement contains representations and warranties that are reasonably customary for similar transactions that are made by the parties as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement, or other specified dates, solely for the benefit of certain of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, and in certain cases are subject to specified exceptions and materiality, Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), knowledge and other qualifications contained in the Business Combination Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Business Combination Agreement. “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to any specified person or entity, any fact, event, occurrence, change or effect that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect upon the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of such person or entity and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the ability of such person or entity or any of its subsidiaries on a timely basis to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the ancillary documents to which it is a party or bound or to perform its obligations thereunder, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions.
No Survival
The representations and warranties of the parties contained in the Business Combination Agreement terminate as of, and do not survive, the Closing, and there are no indemnification rights for another party’s breach. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in the Business Combination Agreement do not survive the Closing, except those covenants and agreements to be performed after the Closing, which covenants and agreements will survive until fully performed.
Covenants of the Parties
Each party to the Business Combination Agreement has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts, and to cooperate fully with one another, to consummate the Transactions. The Business Combination Agreement also contains certain customary covenants by each of the parties that apply during the period between the signing of the Business Combination Agreement and the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Interim Period”), including (i) the provision of access to the applicable party’s properties, books and personnel; (ii) the operation of the parties’ respective businesses in the ordinary course of business; (iii) the current and timely filing of Blue’s public filings; (iv) no insider trading; (v) notifications to the other parties of certain breaches, consent requirements and other matters; (vi) obtaining third party and regulatory approvals; (vii) tax matters; (viii) further assurances; (ix) public announcements; (x) confidentiality; and other covenants.

Additionally:

Each of Blue and Blockfusion will not solicit or enter into a competing alternative transaction, in accordance with customary terms and provisions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.
Blue will not approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, endorse or recommend, any Acquisition proposal (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), or otherwise change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify its recommendation to its shareholders for approval of the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions (a “Change in Recommendation”); provided, however, that if at any time prior to (but not after) obtaining the approval of the Blue shareholders, the Blue board of directors determines in good faith, in response to an Intervening Event (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Change in Recommendation would be a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law, then the board may make a Change in Recommendation, provided that Blue delivers, pursuant to procedures set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, written notice advising Blockfusion that the Blue board of directors proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the board’s determination. If requested by Blockfusion, Blue will use its reasonable best efforts to engage in good faith negotiations with Blockfusion to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement that obviate the need for a Change in Recommendation.
Blockfusion will deliver to Blue financial statements of Pubco and Blockfusion audited by a PCAOB-qualified auditor in accordance with PCAOB auditing standards, accompanied by an unqualified opinion of the auditor thereon (collectively, the “Audited Financials”), as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement but no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Audit Delivery Date”). In addition, Blockfusion and Pubco will deliver to Blue unaudited monthly and quarterly financial information through the Closing Date and Pubco will deliver to Blue Pubco’s interim financial statements for such periods as required by applicable law or SEC Guidance to be included in the Registration Statement (as defined below).
Blue, Blockfusion and Pubco will, as promptly as practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, prepare and file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of the securities of Pubco to be issued pursuant to the Transactions, and containing a proxy statement/prospectus for the solicitation of proxies from Blue shareholders to approve the Business Combination Agreement, the Transactions and related matters at an extraordinary general meeting of Blue’s shareholders, and providing Blue’s public shareholders with an opportunity to request redemption of their public shares in connection with the Transactions, as required by Blue’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and Blue’s initial public offering prospectus (the “Redemption”).
As promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement has become effective and been distributed by Pubco (and in all cases within ten (10) days following such date), Blockfusion will solicit a written consent of its stockholders in order to obtain the requisite vote of its stockholders to approve the Business Combination Agreement and each of the ancillary documents to which Blockfusion is or is required to be a party or bound and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Company Stockholder Approval”) and to take all other actions necessary or advisable to secure the Company Stockholder Approval, including enforcing the Company Support Agreements (as described below). At the request of Blue, Blockfusion shall make the members of its management reasonably available to participate in management presentations, “road shows,” rating agency presentations, meetings with financing sources and similar events in connection with obtaining the approval of Blue shareholders, any “share recycling” efforts by Blue and the obtaining of any debt or equity financing, ratings or governmental or other third-party approvals.
The parties shall take all action necessary so that, effective at the Closing, the post-Closing board of directors of Pubco will consist of seven (7) individuals, two (2) of whose members will be designated by Blue (at least one (1) of whom shall be an independent director in accordance with the requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”)), four (4) of whose members will be designated by Blockfusion (at least two (2) of whom shall be an independent director in accordance with the requirements of Nasdaq), and one (1) additional member (who shall be an independent director in accordance with the requirements of Nasdaq) to be mutually agreed upon by Blue and Blockfusion prior to the Closing. The parties shall also take all action necessary so that the individuals serving as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer (or such equivalent role whose duties include those of the principal accounting officer), respectively, of Pubco immediately after the Closing will be the same individuals (in the same office) as that of Blockfusion immediately prior to the Closing (unless, at its sole discretion, Blockfusion desires to appoint another qualified person to either such role, in which case, such other person(s) identified by Blockfusion shall serve in such role or roles).
During the Interim Period, Blue and Blockfusion shall use reasonable best efforts to enter into written agreements for Transaction Financings with an aggregate proceeds of at least $100 million (on such terms and structuring and using such strategy, placement agents and approach, as Blue and Blockfusion shall mutually agree). “Transaction Financing” means a capital raising transaction in connection with the Transactions structured as one or a combination of common equity, preferred equity, convertible equity or debt, non-redemption or backstop arrangements with respect to the Trust Account, a committed equity facility, debt facility, and/or other sources of cash or cash equivalents, in each case, whether such investment is into Blue, Blockfusion or Pubco.

These filings do or will identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
