Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (LCCC) has entered into a definitive merger agreement with CPRO Electronics Holding Limited and its subsidiaries for a business combination valued at $185 million.

Concurrent agreements include a voting and support agreement with key shareholders, a registration rights agreement, and lock-up agreements for sponsor and shareholder shares. The deal requires shareholder approval, SEC registration, and Nasdaq listing approval. The merger agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and closing conditions typical for SPAC transactions, with an outside closing date of December 31, 2027.
