Important Information for Shareholders

• Price Sensitivity: The pricing of the IPO, warrant structure, and trading commencement are significant events that could impact share value. Investors should note the structure of units and warrants, as well as the possibility of additional units being issued if the underwriter exercises the over-allotment option.
• SPAC Business Model: As a blank check company, Blue Water Acquisition Corp. IV has not yet selected a target for its business combination. The focus on biotechnology, healthcare, and technology sectors signals potential for high-growth opportunities but also carries inherent risks associated with SPACs and sector volatility.
• Risk Factors: The completion of the offering and subsequent business combination are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside the company’s control. These risks are detailed in the SEC filings and should be reviewed carefully by investors.
• Regulatory and Legal Considerations: The offering is only made by prospectus and is subject to regulatory requirements. No sale or solicitation will occur in jurisdictions where it would be unlawful.
