Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously reported, on May 4, 2026, Quantum Leap Acquisition Corp (the "Company") consummated its initial public offering ("IPO") of 20,000,000 units (the "Units"), with each Unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class A Ordinary Shares"), and one redeemable warrant (each, a "Warrant"). In connection with the IPO, the Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 Units at the initial public offering price to cover over-allotments.

As previously reported, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 917,392 Units, the closing of which occurred on May 12, 2026.

On June 18, 2026, the underwriters provided notice of their exercise of the remaining portion of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,082,608 Units at the public offering price of $10.00 per Unit, the closing of which occurred on June 22, 2026. As a result, the underwriters have exercised their over-allotment option in full.

On June 23, 2026, the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants comprising the Units began trading separately on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the symbols "QLEP" and "QLEP WS," respectively, and the Units ceased trading under the symbol "QLEPU."

On June 24, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the full exercise of the over-allotment option and the commencement of separate trading of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
