Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
September 18, 2026, FortuneX Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“FortuneX”), entered into a Business
Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with WT Realty Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”
or “WT Realty”) and FortuneX Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of FortuneX (“Merger
Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) FortuneX will de-register
under the Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised) and domesticate as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”)
and (ii) immediately following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into WT Realty (the “Merger” and, together
with the Domestication and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”),
with WT Realty surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FortuneX (renamed in connection with the Domestication, “PubCo”).
The
Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of FortuneX,
WT Realty and Merger Sub.
Capitalized
terms used but not otherwise defined in this Report have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement.
The Domestication
Immediately prior to the Domestication, holders of FortuneX ordinary shares will have the opportunity to redeem eligible ordinary shares in accordance with FortuneX’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement governing FortuneX’s trust account. At the effective time of the Domestication (the “Domestication Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding FortuneX ordinary share (after giving effect to such redemptions) will automatically convert into one share of PubCo Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“PubCo Class A Common Stock”). Each issued and outstanding FortuneX unit will automatically separate into its component securities consisting of one FortuneX ordinary share and one-half of one FortuneX warrant and will thereafter cease to be outstanding. Each outstanding FortuneX warrant will cease to represent a right to acquire FortuneX ordinary shares and will become a warrant to acquire, on the same terms and conditions applicable immediately prior to the Domestication, an equal number of shares of PubCo Class A Common Stock, subject to adjustment in accordance with the warrant agreement.
Concurrently with the Domestication, FortuneX will file a certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware substantially in the form attached to the Business Combination Agreement and will adopt bylaws substantially in the form attached thereto.
The Merger and Merger Consideration
At the effective time of the Merger (the “Merger
Effective Time”), Merger Sub will merge with and into WT Realty, with WT Realty surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, the aggregate consideration payable to WT Realty securityholders
in connection with the Merger is 60,000,000 shares of PubCo Common Stock (the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”), representing
the agreed equity value of WT Realty of $600 million divided by a reference price of $10.00 per share. The Aggregate Merger Consideration
is a fixed number of shares and is not subject to any adjustment for cash, indebtedness, net debt, working capital or any similar item,
whether before or after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, or to any purchase price adjustment, escrow or holdback. Each
share of Company Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares,
will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of PubCo Class A Common Stock equal to the Consideration Ratio, and each
share of Company Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares,
will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of PubCo Class B Common Stock equal to the Consideration Ratio.
Governance
The Business Combination Agreement provides that
immediately following the Merger Effective Time, the board of directors of PubCo will consist of seven (7) directors, of whom six (6)
will be designated by the Company (three of whom shall be independent directors) and one (1) independent director will be designated
by FortuneX Investment Partners Limited, FortuneX’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), in each case subject to applicable law
and Nasdaq rules. The initial officers of PubCo and the Surviving Corporation will be the individuals identified in the schedules to
the Business Combination Agreement. Certain executive employees of the Company to be identified by FortuneX and the Company are also
expected to enter into employment agreements with PubCo, effective as of the Closing, on terms to be mutually agreed prior to the Closing.
Registration Statement and Shareholder Approvals
As promptly as practicable following receipt from the Company of the information required for inclusion therein, including the Company’s PCAOB-audited financial statements, FortuneX and the Company will cooperate in the preparation, and FortuneX will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement will include a combined proxy statement and prospectus relating to the meeting of FortuneX shareholders at which FortuneX will seek approval of the Transactions and the other proposals required to consummate the Transactions. The Company is also required to obtain the approval of its stockholders in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement and applicable law.
Transaction Financing
During the period between signing and Closing, FortuneX may, with the prior written consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), seek and negotiate one or more PIPE investments or other financing arrangements in connection with the Transactions (collectively, the “Transaction Financing”). The Company and its senior management are required to reasonably cooperate with FortuneX in connection with any such Transaction Financing, subject to the limitations set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. As of the date of this Report, the Business Combination Agreement does not identify any executed Transaction Financing commitment.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants
The Business Combination Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company, FortuneX and Merger Sub for transactions of this nature, including with respect to organization and authority, capitalization, financial statements and SEC reporting, compliance with laws, material contracts, litigation, taxes and other matters. The representations and warranties generally do not survive the Closing.
The Business Combination Agreement also contains customary covenants, including covenants relating to the conduct of the respective businesses during the period between execution of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing, preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and other SEC filings, access to information, efforts to obtain required governmental and third-party consents, Nasdaq listing, indemnification and directors’ and officers’ insurance, tax matters, shareholder litigation and the adoption of a PubCo equity incentive plan. The Business Combination Agreement further restricts the parties from pursuing certain alternative transactions, subject to the terms and exceptions set forth therein.
Closing; Conditions to Closing
Unless the Business Combination Agreement is earlier terminated, the Closing will take place virtually on the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable law) of the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, other than the Domestication and conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, or at such other time, date and location as FortuneX and the Company may agree in writing.
The obligations of the parties to consummate the Transactions are subject to customary conditions, including, among others: (i) the absence of any law or order making the Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibiting or enjoining their consummation; (ii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with no stop order in effect and no pending SEC proceeding seeking such a stop order; (iii) receipt of the requisite FortuneX shareholder approval and Company stockholder approval; (iv) the composition of the PubCo board of directors as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; and (v) approval of the PubCo listing application and the shares of PubCo common stock to be issued in connection with the Transactions for listing on Nasdaq, subject only to official notice of issuance, with PubCo satisfying the applicable Nasdaq initial listing requirements immediately following the Closing.
The obligations of FortuneX and Merger Sub are subject to additional conditions, including the Company’s performance in all material respects of its covenants, the accuracy of its representations and warranties under the applicable bring-down standards, the absence of a continuing Material Adverse Effect, delivery of an officer’s certificate, receipt of required Company consents, execution and effectiveness of the applicable Lock-Up Agreements and A&R Registration Rights Agreement, and continued effectiveness and material performance under the Company Shareholder Support Agreement. The Company’s obligations are subject to corresponding performance and representation-and-warranty conditions applicable to FortuneX and Merger Sub, filing of the PubCo certificate of incorporation, execution of the A&R Registration Rights Agreement by the required parties, continued effectiveness and material performance under the Sponsor Support Agreement, and repayment of Sponsor Loans and payment of Transaction Expenses.
Termination
The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated
prior to the Closing under specified circumstances, including: (i) by mutual written consent of FortuneX and the Company; (ii) by either
party if a final, non-appealable law or order permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the Transactions, subject to specified
limitations; (iii) by either party if the requisite FortuneX shareholder approval is not obtained at the applicable shareholder meeting;
(iv) by FortuneX if the Company stockholder approval is not obtained and delivered by the deadline specified in the Business Combination
Agreement; (v) by either party if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to May 26, 2027 (the “Outside Closing Date”),
subject to specified limitations; (vi) by FortuneX if the Company does not deliver the required PCAOB-audited financial statements by
October 30, 2026; and (vii) by either FortuneX or the Company upon certain uncured breaches by the other party that would cause specified
closing conditions not to be satisfied.
The Business Combination Agreement also provides for a $500,000 termination fee payable by a breaching party to the non-breaching party if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated for a material breach under the specified termination provisions. In addition, the termination fee may become payable following a termination for failure to close by the Outside Closing Date where a delay of more than six months is primarily attributable to a party’s failure to use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Transactions, subject to the exceptions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, including delays primarily attributable to regulatory review, completion of the Company’s audit, SEC review, general market conditions or other circumstances outside the applicable party’s reasonable control.
Sponsor Loans
In connection with the Business Combination Agreement,
WT Realty has agreed to provide, or cause to be provided, to Sponsor non-interest-bearing loans in an aggregate principal amount of $2,431,250,
consisting of $931,250 released from escrow upon execution of the Business Combination Agreement and three additional payments of $500,000
each upon specified transaction milestones. The Sponsor Loans will be evidenced by separate promissory notes and related loan documentation.
All Sponsor Loans will be due and payable in full upon consummation of the Business Combination and will be repaid at Closing, at Sponsor’s
election, either in cash from Available Closing Cash or through the issuance or transfer of equity securities, including Founder Shares,
valued at $10.00 per share.
SPAC Transaction Expenses; Expense Cap
If the Closing occurs on or prior to May 26, 2027, FortuneX transaction expenses payable by PubCo, WT Realty or from Available Closing Cash are capped at $1.5 million, excluding deferred underwriting commissions, certain deferred professional fees contingent upon Closing, D&O tail insurance premiums and extension fees or contributions. Any FortuneX transaction expenses exceeding such cap, other than the excluded amounts, will be borne by FortuneX and Sponsor.
Sponsor Support Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Business
Combination Agreement, the Sponsor and certain other holders of FortuneX securities entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement with FortuneX
and the Company (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, and subject to its terms and

other proposals presented to FortuneX shareholders in connection with the Transactions, waive certain redemption and anti-dilution rights,
and comply with specified restrictions with respect to their FortuneX securities. In addition, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement,
the Sponsor has granted the Company a call option, exercisable for a period of 12 months following the Closing, to purchase all or any
portion of the Sponsor’s FortuneX securities (including Founder Shares, Private Placement Units and promissory notes) for an aggregate
purchase price of $4,000,000.

survive. In addition, no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of the Business Combination Agreement that reduces or changes
the Per Share Merger Consideration, adversely affects the rights, preferences or privileges of the Company Class B Common Stock or the
holders thereof, adversely affects the governance or control rights contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the Additional
