Kochav Defense Updates Trust Contribution Structure Ahead of Extension Vote

Kochav Defense Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated under commission file number 001-42670 and operating as a special purpose acquisition company, disclosed material changes to its trust account contribution terms in this DEFA14A filing. The company is seeking shareholder approval at its November 13, 2026 extraordinary general meeting of an Extension Amendment Proposal, the details of which were set out in a definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 19, 2026.

According to the filing, the company previously planned to contribute $0.06 per unredeemed Public Share for the first 3 months following the Extension Amendment Proposal's approval, subject to an aggregate cap of $300,000. That per-share structure has been replaced with a flat $300,000 contribution covering the same 3-month period. For subsequent months, the prior formula of $0.02 per unredeemed Public Share per month, capped at $100,000 per month, has similarly been replaced by a straightforward flat $100,000 monthly contribution, according to the filing. The sponsor for these contributions is Kochav Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

The filing also disclosed that the company's governing documents previously permitted withdrawals of up to $100,000 of interest income from the Trust Account to cover dissolution expenses if the company failed to complete an initial business combination. The company has decided to reduce that permitted withdrawal amount to $0 in connection with the Extension. Only holders of the company's ordinary shares as of the October 13, 2026 record date are entitled to vote at the EGM. The filing notes that the company's forward-looking statements regarding the Extension and any business combination are subject to risks and uncertainties described in its regulatory filings, and are the company's own characterizations subject to its cautionary language.
