| (a) | The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense; | |

PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
The Annual Report on Form 10-K of Kairous Acquisition Corp. Limited (the “Company”) could not be filed within the prescribed time period due to the fact that the Company was unable to finalize its financial results without unreasonable expense or effort. As a result, the Company could not solicit and obtain the necessary review of the Form 10-K in a timely fashion prior to the due date of the report. The Company requires additional time to compile and verify the data required to be included in the Form 10-K. The Company expects to file the Form 10-K within the additional time allowed.
