Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 16, 2023, Cathryn Chen, Chief Operating Officer and Co-Vice Chairwoman of the Board of Directors (the “Board’) of Aurora Technology Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), was appointed Chief Financial Officer of the Company effective immediately, and Yida Gao, Chief Financial Officer and Co-Vice Chairman of the Board, was appointed Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Each of Ms. Chen and Mr. Gao will continue as Co-Vice Chairwoman and Chairman, respectively. These adjustments to the Company’s management team were implemented in light of each executive’s role since the signing of the Company’s business combination agreement with DIH Holding US, Inc., a Nevada corporation, as previously disclosed, and are not the result of any disagreements between the Company and Ms. Chen or Mr. Gao, respectively.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Chen or Mr. Gao and any other persons pursuant to which they were selected as CFO or COO, respectively. There are no family relationships between Ms. Chen or Mr. Gao and any member of the Board, nor between Ms. Chen or Mr. Gao and any executive officer of the Company.

As set forth in the Company’s filings and reports made with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), no executive officers of the Company, including Ms. Chen and Mr. Gao, have received any cash compensation for services rendered to the Company, and neither are party to any executive or other employment agreement with the Company.
