The line you want to know about is just a comment. When a line starts with a #, all subseuqent characters are totally ignored by the shell.
The VERY first line is different. The #! is a so-called magic number that tells the current shell to invoke whatever comes after #! -- in your case it executes "/bin/posix/sh"
# %% alpha_run.sh
