Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“QRED” or “Parent”), Robseek Intelligence Inc., a
Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), Robseek Limited, a business company incorporated under the Laws of British
Virgin Islands (the “Principal Shareholder”), and Meng Tang, an individual, solely in his capacity as the shareholder representative,
agent and attorney-in-fact of the Principal Shareholder (the “Principal Shareholder’s Representative”), Robseek Inc.,
a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”), and QRED Merger Sub Ltd., a Cayman
Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the “Merger Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Merger Agreement.
SPAC Merger and Acquisition Merger
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
the parties will consummate a business combination transaction through the following transactions: (i) Parent will merge with and into
Purchaser, with Purchaser surviving such merger as the surviving company (the “SPAC Merger”); and (ii) immediately following

of Purchaser (the “Acquisition Merger,” and together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers”).
Subject to, and in accordance
with, the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the SPAC Merger, each issued and outstanding ordinary
share of Parent will be converted automatically into one Purchaser Class A ordinary share, and each issued and outstanding right of Parent

Subject to, and in accordance
with, the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Acquisition Merger, each issued and outstanding ordinary
share of the Company, other than excluded shares, will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the applicable portion of 100,000,000
ordinary shares of Purchaser, valued at $10.00 per share, based on an agreed pre-money equity valuation of the Company of $1,000,000,000,
subject to allocation among the Company shareholders in accordance with the Merger Agreement.
Immediately after the effective
time of the Acquisition Merger, the board of directors of Purchaser is expected to consist of seven directors, one of whom will be designated
by Parent and six of whom will be designated by the Company, subject to the requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)

Important Notice Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This Current Report on Form
8-K contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, both as amended. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the pending transactions among QRED,
Purchaser, Merger Sub and the Company and the transactions contemplated thereby, and the parties’ perspectives and expectations,
are forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction, including
QRED’s and the Company’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the business
combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the business combination and the timing of the completion of the business combination.
The words “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions
indicate forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various
risks and uncertainties, assumptions (including assumptions about general economic, market, industry and operational factors), known or
unknown, which could cause the actual results to vary materially from those indicated or anticipated.
Such risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination
of the Merger Agreement relating to the proposed business combination; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted
against QRED and the Company following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability
to complete the business combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of QRED or other conditions to closing
in the Merger Agreement; (4) delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals required to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (5) the occurrence of any event, change or other
circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement or could otherwise cause the transaction to fail to close;
(6) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-acquisition company’s ordinary shares on the stock exchange following
the business combination; (7) the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement
and consummation of the business combination; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, which
may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain
its key employees; (9) costs related to the business combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility
that the Company or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors and (12) other
risks and uncertainties to be identified in the Registration Statement filed by Purchaser and the Company (when available) relating to
the business combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in other filings with the SEC made by QRED and
the Company. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you are cautioned not
to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate only to the date they were made, and QRED,
Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Company, and their subsidiaries undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events
or circumstances after the date they were made except as required by law or applicable regulation.
Additional Information and Where to Find It
In connection with the transaction
described herein, Purchaser and the Company will file relevant materials with the SEC, including a registration statement on Form F-4
(as may be amended from time to time) that will include a proxy statement and a registration statement/preliminary prospectus (the “Registration
Statement”) pertaining to such transaction. The proxy statement and a proxy card will be mailed to the QRED’s shareholders
as of a record date to be established for voting at the shareholders’ meeting relating to the proposed transactions. QRED’s
shareholders will also be able to obtain a copy of the Registration Statement and proxy statement without charge from QRED. The Registration
Statement and proxy statement, once available, may also be obtained without charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by writing

QRED, Purchaser, Merger Sub,
the Company, certain shareholders of the Company, and their respective directors, executive officers and employees and other persons may
