Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. The disclosures set forth under Item 2.03 are incorporated by reference.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. Pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”) of the Columbus Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), the Company had until June 22, 2026 to complete its initial business combination, however the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to January 22, 2027, each by a one-month extension, subject to the deposit of $50,000 (the “Monthly Extension Fee”) into the trust account of the Company (the “Trust Account”). On or around June 22, 2026, an aggregate of $50,000 of the Monthly Extension Fee was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enabled the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from June 22, 2026 to July 22, 2026. Among the Monthly Extension Fee, $25,000 was paid by Hercules Capital Management VII Corp, a British Virgin Islands company and the Sponsor of the Company (the “Sponsor”), and the remaining $25,000 was paid by WISeSat. Space Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Target”) pursuant to that certain business combination agreement dated as of November 9, 2025 (as it may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, WISeSat. Space Holdings Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (“Pubco”), WISeSat Merger Sub Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub”), the Target, and WISeKey International Holding Ltd., a Swiss company (together with its successors, including after its anticipated domestication to the British Virgin Islands prior to the Closing, the “Seller”). On July 29, 2026, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $25,000 to the Target in connection with the Target’s payment of 50% of the Monthly Extension Fee (the “Target Extension Note”). On July 29, 2026, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $25,000 to the Sponsor in connection with the Sponsor’s payment of 50% of the Monthly Extension Fee (the “Sponsor Extension Note” and, together with the Target Extension Note, the “Extension Notes”). The Target Extension Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the earliest to occur of (i) the termination date of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms other than by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(e) thereof, (ii) the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination, including the proposed business combination with the Target (a “Business Combination”), and (iii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. The Sponsor Extension Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its Business Combination, and (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. The payee of each of the Extension Notes, or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”), has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the outstanding unpaid obligations payable to the Payee under the Extension Notes, as applicable, in whole or in part, respectively, into private units (the “Conversion Units”) of the Company at a price of $10.00 per unit, each consisting of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Share”) and one right to receive one-seventh (1/7) of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of a Business Combination, as described in the prospectus of the Company (File No: 333-283278). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Target Extension Note, in the event of a valid termination of the Business Combination Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(e) thereof, upon the completion of a Business Combination of the Company with other targets, other than the Target or its affiliate, the Payee, at its sole election, may choose (i) either repayment of the outstanding amount under the Target Extension Note, or (ii) to convert the outstanding amount into common or ordinary shares of the post-closing public company in such Business Combination (“Conversion Shares”) at a price per share equal to $5.00 (with such price to be equitably adjusted if the Ordinary Shares, par value are subject to any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the date of such Target Extension Note or are not converted into common or ordinary shares of the post-closing public company in such Business Combination on a one-for-one basis). The issuance of the Extension Notes was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A copy of the Target Extension Note is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
