Controls and Procedures
+Added: Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
+Added: In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
+Added: In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
−Removed: Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the
−Removed: objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report,
−Removed: is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
−Removed: controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
−Removed: including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
−Removed: Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer
−Removed: (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020, pursuant
−Removed: to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act.
−Removed: Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of December
−Removed: 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
−Removed: We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures
−Removed: will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud.
−Removed: Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated,
−Removed: can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
−Removed: the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must
−Removed: be considered relative to their costs.
−Removed: Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation
−Removed: of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances
−Removed: of fraud, if any.
−Removed: The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood
−Removed: of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
−Removed: future conditions.
−Removed: Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial
−Removed: This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include a report of
−Removed: management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered
−Removed: public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.
+Added: Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: Our management, with the participation of our co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Exchange Act.
+Added: Based on this evaluation and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.
+Added: However, after giving full consideration to these material weaknesses, and the additional analyses and other procedures that we performed to ensure that our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report were prepared in accordance with U.S.
+Added: GAAP, our management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.
+Added: Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual and interim financial statements will not be detected or prevented on a timely basis.
+Added: In connection with the preparation and audit of our financial statements, we identified certain control deficiencies in the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting that constituted material weaknesses.
+Added: The material weaknesses are:
+Added: ▪ We did not design and maintain an effective control environment commensurate with our financial reporting requirements.
+Added: We lack a sufficient number of trained professionals with (i) an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, training and experience to appropriately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters timely and accurately, and (ii) an appropriate level of knowledge and experience to establish effective processes and controls.
+Added: Additionally, the limited personnel also resulted in an inability to consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of financial reporting objectives, as demonstrated by, among other things, insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions.
+Added: The material weakness in the control environment contributed to the following additional material weaknesses:
+Added: ▪ We did not design and maintain an effective risk assessment process at a precise enough level to identify new and evolving risks of material misstatement in our financial statements.
+Added: Specifically, changes to existing controls or the implementation of new controls have not been sufficient to respond to changes to the risks of material misstatement to financial reporting.
+Added: ▪ We did not design and maintain formal accounting policies, procedures, and controls to achieve complete, accurate and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures, including controls over the preparation and review of business performance reviews, account reconciliations, and journal entries.
+Added: ▪ We did not design and maintain effective controls over IT general controls for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of our financial statements.
+Added: Specifically, we did not design and maintain:
+Added: • user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and that adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs, and data to appropriate company personnel;
+Added: • program change management controls to ensure that IT program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized, and implemented appropriately;
+Added: • computer operations controls to ensure that data backups are authorized and monitored.
+Added: These material weaknesses resulted in immaterial audit adjustments to the research and development expense and property and equipment line items in our financial statements and related disclosures for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the general and administrative expense line item and within current liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2021, and a revision to our consolidated condensed financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2021 to reclassify certain costs within operating expenses from research and development expense to other warrant expense.
+Added: Additionally, each of these material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all of our accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
+Added: Remediation Measures
+Added: We are taking the necessary steps to remediate the material weaknesses to comply with Section 404(a) of Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
+Added: Management, with the participation of the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors, is engaged in remedial activities to address the material weaknesses described above.
+Added: Those remediation measures are ongoing and include the following:
+Added: ▪ We have prepared a remediation plan for each of the material weaknesses and intend to train process owners, develop new controls, enhance existing controls, evaluate process adoption, and monitor results;
+Added: ▪ We have recently hired and plan to continue to hire in 2022, additional accounting, human resources and payroll, and IT personnel to bolster our accounting and IT capabilities and capacity, and to establish and maintain our internal controls;
+Added: ▪ We designed and continue to implement controls to formalize roles and review responsibilities that align with our team’s skills and experience and designing and implementing formal controls over segregation of duties;
+Added: ▪ We have engaged third-party professionals to assist management in designing and implementing a formal risk assessment process to identify and evaluate changes in our business and the impact on our internal controls;
+Added: ▪ We are implementing formal processes, policies, and procedures supporting our financial close process, including establishing and reviewing thresholds for business performance reviews, formalizing procedures over the review of financial statements, and creation of standard balance sheet reconciliation templates and journal entry controls;
+Added: ▪ We continue to design and implement IT general controls, including controls over the review and updating of user access rights and privileges and implementing more robust IT policies and procedures over change management, data backup authorization, and computer operations.
+Added: We believe we are making progress toward achieving the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.
+Added: The actions that we are taking are subject to ongoing senior management review, as well as Audit Committee oversight.
+Added: We will not be able to conclude whether the steps we are taking will fully remediate these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting until we have completed our remediation efforts and subsequent evaluation of their effectiveness.
+Added: We may also conclude that additional measures may be required to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which may necessitate additional implementation and evaluation time.
+Added: We will continue to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and take steps to remediate the known material weaknesses expeditiously.
+Added: Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: This Annual Report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) as allowed by the SEC for reverse acquisitions between an issuer and a private operating company when it is not possible to conduct an assessment of the private operating company’s internal control over financial reporting in the period between the consummation date of the reverse acquisition and the date of management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting (pursuant to Section 215.02 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance’s Regulation S-K Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations).
+Added: As discussed elsewhere in this report, we completed a business combination of Archer Aviation, Inc., Atlas, and Artemis Acquisition Sub Inc.
+Added: on September 16, 2021, pursuant to which was effected by the merger of Archer Aviation, Inc.
+Added: and Artemis Acquisition Sub, Inc.
+Added: Prior to the merger, we were a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.
+Added: As a result, previously existing internal controls are no longer applicable or comprehensive enough as of the assessment date as our operations prior to the merger were insignificant compared to those of the consolidated entity post-merger.
+Added: The design of our internal control over financial reporting following the merger has required and will continue to require significant time and resources from management and other personnel.
+Added: If management were to conduct an assessment regarding our internal control over financial reporting, however, its scope would include the criteria set forth by the Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
−Removed: There were no changes in our internal control over financial
−Removed: reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter
−Removed: that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: We are taking actions to remediate the material weaknesses relating to our internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: Except as otherwise described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

−Removed: Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the compensation committee
−Removed: will only be responsible for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements to be entered into in connection with
−Removed: such initial business combination.
−Removed: The charter also provides that the compensation
−Removed: committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, independent legal counsel or
−Removed: other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser.
−Removed: However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the
−Removed: compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by the NYSE and the
−Removed: Nominating and Corporate Governance
−Removed: Lemkin and Mr.
−Removed: Pearlman serve as members of our nominating and corporate governance committee.
−Removed: Fox is the chair the nominating and corporate
−Removed: governance committee.
−Removed: The primary purposes of our nominating
−Removed: and corporate governance committee will be to assist the board in:
−Removed: • identifying,
−Removed: screening and reviewing individuals qualified to serve as directors and recommending to the board of directors candidates for
−Removed: nomination for election at the annual meeting of stockholders or to fill vacancies on the board of directors;
−Removed: and recommending to the board of directors and overseeing implementation of our corporate governance guidelines;
−Removed: • coordinating
−Removed: and overseeing the annual self-evaluation of the board of directors, its committees, individual directors and management in the
−Removed: governance of the Company;
−Removed: • reviewing on a regular basis our corporate governance and recommending improvements as and when necessary.
−Removed: nominating and corporate governance committee is governed by a charter that complies with the rules of the NYSE.
−Removed: Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees
−Removed: Our nominating and corporate governance
−Removed: committee will recommend to the board of directors candidates for nomination for election at the annual meeting of stockholders.
−Removed: We have not formally established any specific,
−Removed: minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess.
−Removed: In general, in identifying and
−Removed: evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience,
−Removed: knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests
−Removed: of our stockholders.
−Removed: Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership
−Removed: Reporting Compliance
−Removed: Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more
−Removed: than ten percent of our Class A ordinary shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC.
−Removed: These reporting persons
−Removed: are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
−Removed: Based solely upon a review of such forms, we believe
−Removed: that during the year ended December 31, 2020 there were no delinquent filers.
−Removed: Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
−Removed: We have adopted a code of ethics applicable
−Removed: to our directors, officers and employees (our “Code of Ethics”).
−Removed: A copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without
−Removed: charge upon request from us.
−Removed: We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in
−Removed: a Current Report on Form 8-K.
−Removed: Limitation on Liability and Indemnification
−Removed: of Officers and Directors
−Removed: Our amended and restated certificate of
−Removed: incorporation provides that our officers and directors are indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law,
−Removed: as it now exists or may in the future be amended.
−Removed: In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides
−Removed: that our directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages to us or our stockholders for breaches of their fiduciary
−Removed: duty as directors, unless they violated their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, acted in bad faith, knowingly or intentionally
−Removed: violated the law, authorized unlawful payments of dividends, unlawful stock purchases or unlawful redemptions, or derived an improper
−Removed: personal benefit from their actions as directors.
−Removed: We have entered into agreements with our
−Removed: officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in our amended and
−Removed: restated certificate of incorporation.
−Removed: Our bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee
−Removed: for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Delaware law would permit such indemnification.
−Removed: have purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against
−Removed: the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify
−Removed: our officers and directors.
−Removed: Except with respect to any public shares they may acquire in the Initial Public Offering or thereafter
−Removed: (in the event we do not consummate an initial business combination), our officers and directors have agreed to waive (and any
−Removed: other persons who may become an officer or director prior to the initial business combination will also be required to waive)
−Removed: any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the trust account, and not to seek recourse against the
−Removed: trust account for any reason whatsoever, including with respect to such indemnification.
−Removed: These provisions may discourage stockholders
−Removed: from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty.
−Removed: These provisions also may have the effect of
−Removed: reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might
−Removed: otherwise benefit us and our stockholders.
−Removed: Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent
−Removed: we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
−Removed: We believe that these provisions, the
−Removed: directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented
−Removed: and experienced officers and directors.
−Removed: Conflicts of Interest
−Removed: In general, officers and directors of
−Removed: a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware are required to present business opportunities to a corporation
−Removed: the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity
−Removed: the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business;
−Removed: it would not be fair to our company and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the
−Removed: All of our officers and directors have fiduciary and contractual duties to the AC SPACs.
−Removed: If our Business Combination does not consummate
−Removed: and we are pursuing other suitable initial business combination counterparties, any of the AC SPACs may compete with us for business combination
−Removed: opportunities.
−Removed: If any of the AC SPACs decides to pursue any such opportunity, we may be precluded from pursuing such opportunities.
−Removed: to his or her fiduciary duties under Delaware law, which are limited by our renunciation of our interest in any corporate opportunity
−Removed: as described below, none of the members of our management team who are also employed by, or directors of, our sponsor or its affiliates
−Removed: have any obligation to present us with any opportunity for a potential business combination of which they become aware.
−Removed: Our sponsor and
−Removed: directors and officers are also not prohibited from sponsoring, investing or otherwise becoming involved with, any other blank check companies,
−Removed: including in connection with their initial business combinations, prior to us completing our initial business combination.
−Removed: Our management
−Removed: team, in their capacities as directors, officers or employees of our sponsor or its affiliates or in their other endeavors, may choose
−Removed: to present potential business combinations to the related entities described above, current or future entities affiliated with or managed
−Removed: by our sponsor, or third parties, before they present such opportunities to us, subject to his or her fiduciary duties under Delaware law and any other applicable fiduciary duties which
−Removed: are limited by our renunciation of our interest in any corporate opportunity as described herein.
−Removed: Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have, additional fiduciary, contractual or other obligations
−Removed: to other entities including, without limitation, the AC SPACs, or to clients of Moelis, or other affiliates of our sponsor pursuant to
−Removed: which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity.
−Removed: Accordingly, if any of our officers
−Removed: or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then current fiduciary,
−Removed: contractual or other obligations, including the AC SPACs, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary, contractual or other obligations
−Removed: to present such opportunity to such entity and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity and he or she determines to
−Removed: present the opportunity to us (including as described above).
−Removed: These conflicts may not be resolved in our favor and a potential target
−Removed: business may be presented to another entity prior to its presentation to us.
−Removed: For example, a business combination opportunity may be suitable
−Removed: for one or more of the AC SPACs and us and our officers and directors may choose to direct such opportunity to one or more of the AC SPACs
−Removed: before presenting to our company, meaning we could find less suitable acquisition opportunities and could limit our ability to find a
−Removed: business combination that we find attractive.
−Removed: However, we do not believe that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers
−Removed: or directors will materially affect our ability to complete an initial business combination.
−Removed: Moelis is a member and affiliate of our
−Removed: Moelis has an economic interest in approximately 7% of our Class B Common Stock and approximately 600,000 warrants.
−Removed: is a leading independent investment banking and advisory firm which provides advice on mergers and acquisitions, financial restructurings,
−Removed: valuation and capital structure to companies, institutions and governments.
−Removed: Moelis is continuously made aware of potential business
−Removed: opportunities, one or more of which we may desire to pursue for an initial business combination.
−Removed: While Moelis may become aware
−Removed: of a potential transaction that is an attractive opportunity for us, Moelis will not have any duty or other obligation to offer
−Removed: acquisition opportunities to us.
−Removed: In addition, our officers and directors may have a duty to offer acquisition opportunities to
−Removed: clients of Moelis, or our other affiliates or other entities to which they owe duties.
−Removed: As a result, our affiliates and their respective
−Removed: clients may compete with us for acquisition opportunities in the same industries and sectors as we may target for our initial business
−Removed: If any of them decide to pursue any such opportunity, we may be precluded from procuring such opportunities.
−Removed: Conflicts may arise from Moelis’
−Removed: affiliation with us, its provision of services both to us and to third-party clients, as well as from actions undertaken by Moelis
−Removed: for its own account.
−Removed: Moelis is often engaged as a financial advisor, or placement agent, to corporations and other entities and
−Removed: their directors and managers in connection with the sale of those entities, their assets or their subsidiaries.
−Removed: Clients generally
−Removed: require Moelis to act exclusively on their behalf and as a result and/or for other reasons, we may be precluded from attempting
−Removed: to acquire securities of the business being sold or otherwise participating as a buyer in the transaction.
−Removed: Alternatively, Moelis,
−Removed: or another affiliate of our sponsor, may be a financial advisor to a target business that we pursue a business combination with
−Removed: and Moelis, or another affiliate of our sponsor, may receive fees from the target business in connection with a business combination.
−Removed: Moelis also represents potential buyer’s businesses and may be incentivized or obligated to direct an opportunity to one
−Removed: of these buyers in lieu of us, thereby eliminating or reducing the investment opportunity available to us.
−Removed: In the event we seek to complete our initial
−Removed: business combination with a company that is affiliated with, or which there is a fiduciary, contractual or other obligation by,
−Removed: our sponsor, officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, may obtain an opinion from an independent investment
−Removed: banking firm which is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, or an independent accounting firm that
−Removed: the consideration to be paid by us in initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
−Removed: entity may co-invest with us in the target business at the time of our initial business combination, or we could raise additional
−Removed: proceeds to complete the acquisition by making a specified future issuance to any such entity.
−Removed: Our executive officers are not required
−Removed: to commit any specified amount of time to our affairs, and, accordingly, will have conflicts of interest in allocating management
−Removed: time among various business activities.
−Removed: However, we do not expect either potential conflicts of interest or the time taken by our
−Removed: management team’s other duties to present a significant constraint in our ability to identify, diligence and execute potential
−Removed: business combinations.
−Removed: Our officers and directors, Moelis or its
−Removed: affiliates may sponsor, form or participate in other blank check companies similar to ours during the period in which we are seeking
−Removed: an initial business combination.
−Removed: Any such companies may present additional conflicts of interest in pursuing an acquisition target,
−Removed: particularly in the event there is overlap among investment mandates and the director and officer teams.
−Removed: However, we do not expect
−Removed: that any such other blank check company would materially affect our ability to complete our initial business combination.
−Removed: Our amended and restated certificate of
−Removed: incorporation provides that we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such
−Removed: opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the company and such
−Removed: opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue,
−Removed: and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to us without violating another legal obligation.
−Removed: We do not believe, however, that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers or directors will materially affect
−Removed: our ability to complete our initial business combination.
−Removed: Below is a table summarizing the entities
−Removed: to which our executive officers and directors currently have fiduciary duties, contractual or other obligations:

−Removed: Potential investors should also be aware
−Removed: of the following other potential conflicts of interest:
−Removed: • Our executive officers and directors are not required
−Removed: to, and will not, commit any specified period of to our affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating their
−Removed: time between our operations and our search for a business combination and their other businesses.
−Removed: We do not intend to have any
−Removed: full-time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination.
−Removed: Each of our executive officers is engaged in
−Removed: several other business endeavors for which they may be entitled to substantial compensation, and our executive officers are not
−Removed: obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per week to our affairs.
−Removed: • In the course of their other business activities, our
−Removed: officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to
−Removed: us as well as the other entities or clients of the other entities with which they are affiliated.
−Removed: Our management may have conflicts
−Removed: of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
−Removed: • Our initial stockholders purchased founder shares private placement warrants.
−Removed: stockholders have entered into agreements with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with
−Removed: respect to their founder shares and any public shares they hold in connection with the completion of our initial business
−Removed: The other members of our management team have entered into agreements similar to the one entered into by our
−Removed: initial stockholders with respect to any public shares acquired by them in or after the Initial Public Offering..
−Removed: Additionally, our initial stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account
−Removed: with respect to their founder shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame
−Removed: or any extended period of time that we may have to consummate an initial business combination as a result of an amendment to
−Removed: our amended and restated certificate of incorporation.
−Removed: If we do not complete our initial business combination within the
−Removed: prescribed time frame, the private placement warrants will expire worthless.
−Removed: Furthermore, at the time of our Public Offering,
−Removed: our initial stockholders agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their founder shares until the earlier to occur of:
−Removed: (i) one year after the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) the date following the completion of our
−Removed: initial business combination on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction
−Removed: that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other
−Removed: Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share
−Removed: (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading
−Removed: days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, the founder shares
−Removed: will be released from the lockup.
−Removed: Subject to certain limited exceptions, the private placement warrants are not be
−Removed: transferable until 30 days following the completion of our initial business combination.
−Removed: In connection with the Business
−Removed: Combination, the lock-up described above was decreased to six months.
−Removed: Because each of our executive officers and directors
−Removed: own common stock or warrants directly or indirectly, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular
−Removed: target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination.
−Removed: • Our officers and directors, Moelis or its affiliates may sponsor, form or participate in
−Removed: other blank check companies similar to ours, including without limitation the AC SPACs, during the period in which we are
−Removed: seeking an initial business combination.
−Removed: • The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on the effective date of the Public Offering, to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000
−Removed: per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support.
−Removed: • Our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest
−Removed: with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors
−Removed: was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination
−Removed: • We engaged Moelis & Company LLC and the representative of the underwriters of our Public Offering to provide services in connection
−Removed: with our initial business combination and will pay an aggregate Marketing Fee to Moelis & Company LLC and the representative of the
−Removed: underwriters upon consummation of the Business Combination in the amount of $17,500,000 with $6,250,000 of the Marketing Fee paid to Moelis

−Removed: and will pay such affiliate a financial advisory fee of $24,000,000 upon consummation of the Business Combination.
−Removed: We are not prohibited from pursuing an
−Removed: initial business combination with a business combination target that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors or completing
−Removed: the business combination through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with our sponsor, officers or directors.
−Removed: the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a business combination target that is affiliated with our sponsor,
−Removed: executive officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, may obtain an opinion from an independent investment
−Removed: bank which is a member of FINRA or a valuation or appraisal firm, that the consideration to be paid by us in such initial business
−Removed: combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
−Removed: We pay our sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial
−Removed: and administrative services provided to members of our management team.
−Removed: We cannot assure you that any of the above

+Added: Lease Agreement with SIR Properties Trust
+Added: On March 9, 2022, we entered into a lease agreement with SIR Properties Trust.
+Added: The lease is for approximately 68,000 rentable square feet of building space in the building located at 77 Rio Robles, San Jose, California.
+Added: Archer intends that the premises will be used for lab space and a low rate initial production facility.

+Added: We are also responsible for certain other costs under the lease, such as certain build-out expenses, operating expenses, taxes, assessments, insurance, and utilities.
+Added: However, the lease does require that the landlord shall provide us with an allowance that may be applied against certain of our build-out and moving expenses.
+Added: The foregoing summary of key terms of the lease does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the lease, a copy of which we expect to file with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2022.

Executive Compensation
−Removed: From October 30, 2020 through December 31,
−Removed: 2020, we paid our Sponsor an aggregate fee of up to $10,000 per month for providing us with office space and certain office and
−Removed: secretarial services.
−Removed: Other than the administrative fee of
−Removed: up to $10,000 per month and the potential payment of the Marketing Fee to the representative of the underwriter and Moelis
−Removed: & Company LLC and advisory fees to Moelis or another affiliate of the sponsor for financial advisory services provided in

−Removed: services rendered prior to or in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type
−Removed: of transaction that it is).
−Removed: However, they will receive repayment of any loans from our Sponsor, officers and directors for
−Removed: working capital purposes and reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with activities on

−Removed: members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with
−Removed: any and all amounts being fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation materials furnished
−Removed: to our stockholders.
−Removed: It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a stockholder meeting held to
−Removed: consider an initial business combination, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive

−Removed: In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
−Removed: financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the

−Removed: DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION
−Removed: AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
−Removed: Atlas Crest Investment Corp.
−Removed: (the “Company”
−Removed: or "Atlas") is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on August 26, 2020.
−Removed: The Company was formed for the
−Removed: purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business
−Removed: combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).
−Removed: The Company is an early stage and emerging growth
−Removed: company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020, the Company
−Removed: had not commenced any operations.
−Removed: All activity for the period from August 26, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020 relates
−Removed: to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) as described below, and since
−Removed: the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination.
−Removed: The Company will not generate
−Removed: any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest.
−Removed: The Company will generate
−Removed: non-operating income in the form of interest income or gains on investments on the cash and investments held in a trust account
−Removed: from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
−Removed: The registration statement for the Company's
−Removed: Initial Public Offering was declared effective on October 27, 2020.
−Removed: On October 30, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public
−Removed: Offering of 50,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units
−Removed: sold, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $500,000,000, which is discussed in Note
−Removed: Following the closing of the Initial Public
−Removed: Offering on October 30, 2020, an amount of $500,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the
−Removed: Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 4) was placed in a trust account (the
−Removed: “Trust Account”), invested in U.S.
−Removed: government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
−Removed: Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended
−Removed: investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act,
−Removed: as determined by the Company, until the earlier of:
−Removed: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of
−Removed: the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.
−Removed: Transaction costs related to the issuances
−Removed: described above amounted to $10,534,144, consisting of $10,000,000 of underwriting fees and $534,144 of other costs.
−Removed: at December 31, 2020, $925,923 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.
−Removed: The Company’s management has broad
−Removed: discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private
−Removed: Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business
−Removed: New York Stock Exchange rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that
−Removed: together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on income
−Removed: earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination.
−Removed: will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting
−Removed: securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register
−Removed: as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
−Removed: There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully
−Removed: effect a Business Combination.
−Removed: ATLAS CREST INVESTMENT CORP.
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: The Company will provide its holders of
−Removed: the outstanding Public Shares (the “public stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their
−Removed: Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve
−Removed: the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer.
−Removed: The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval
−Removed: of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion.
−Removed: The public stockholders
−Removed: are entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated
−Removed: to be $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released
−Removed: to the Company to pay its tax obligations).
−Removed: There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with
−Removed: respect to the Company’s warrants.
−Removed: The Public Shares subject to redemption are recorded at redemption value and classified
−Removed: as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s
−Removed: Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity .
−Removed: The Company will proceed with the Business
−Removed: Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either prior to or upon such consummation of a Business
−Removed: Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.
−Removed: If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons,
−Removed: the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender
−Removed: offer rules of the U.S.
−Removed: Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior
−Removed: to completing a Business Combination.
−Removed: If, however, stockholder approval of the Business Combination is required by law, or the
−Removed: Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction
−Removed: with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules.
−Removed: If the Company seeks stockholder
−Removed: approval in connection with a Business Combination, Atlas Crest Investment LLC (the "Sponsor") has agreed to vote its
−Removed: Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving
−Removed: a Business Combination.
−Removed: Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they
−Removed: vote for or against the proposed Business Combination or do not vote at all.
−Removed: Notwithstanding the above, if the Company
−Removed: seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the
−Removed: amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder
−Removed: or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of
−Removed: the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares
−Removed: with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.
−Removed: The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its
−Removed: redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business
−Removed: Combination, (b) to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business
−Removed: Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering and (c) not to propose an amendment to the amended
−Removed: and restated Certificate of Incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption
−Removed: in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does
−Removed: not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial
−Removed: business combination activity, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public
−Removed: Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
−Removed: ATLAS CREST INVESTMENT CORP.
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: The Company will have until 24 months from
−Removed: the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”).
−Removed: If the Company
−Removed: is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for
−Removed: the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public
−Removed: Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest
−Removed: earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to
−Removed: $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will
−Removed: completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions,
−Removed: if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s
−Removed: remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s
−Removed: obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
−Removed: There will be no
−Removed: redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the
−Removed: Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.
−Removed: In order to protect the amounts held in
−Removed: the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services
−Removed: rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a
−Removed: transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (1) $10.00 per Public Share or (2) the actual amount
−Removed: per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value
−Removed: of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay our taxes.
−Removed: This liability will not apply with
−Removed: respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except
−Removed: as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities,
−Removed: including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
−Removed: Moreover, in the event that
−Removed: an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any
−Removed: liability for such third-party claims.
−Removed: The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify
−Removed: the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except the Company’s
−Removed: independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business,
−Removed: execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020, the Company
−Removed: had $925,923 in cash held outside of the Trust Account and working capital of $1,260,964.
−Removed: The Company’s liquidity needs prior
−Removed: to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder
−Removed: Shares, and a loan of $300,000 under an unsecured and non-interest bearing promissory note (see Note 5).
−Removed: Subsequent to the consummation
−Removed: of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity needs are satisfied through the net proceeds from the private placement
−Removed: held outside of the Trust Account.
−Removed: Based on the foregoing, management believes
−Removed: that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation
−Removed: of a Business Combination or one year from this filing.
−Removed: Over this time period, the Company will be using the funds held outside
−Removed: of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable and accrued liabilities, identifying and evaluating prospective initial
−Removed: Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting
−Removed: the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.
−Removed: ATLAS CREST INVESTMENT CORP.
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: Risks and Uncertainties
−Removed: Management is currently evaluating the
−Removed: impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have
−Removed: a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the
−Removed: specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements.
−Removed: The financial statements do not include
−Removed: any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
−Removed: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
−Removed: Basis of Presentation
−Removed: The accompanying financial statements of
−Removed: the Company are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”)
−Removed: and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
−Removed: Emerging Growth Company
−Removed: The Company is an “emerging growth
−Removed: company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012
−Removed: (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable
−Removed: to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with
−Removed: the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure
−Removed: obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements
−Removed: of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously
−Removed: Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS
−Removed: Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private
−Removed: companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of
−Removed: securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards.
−Removed: JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply
−Removed: to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
−Removed: The Company has elected not to opt out of such
−Removed: extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public
−Removed: or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies
−Removed: adopt the new or revised standard.
−Removed: This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company,
−Removed: which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition
−Removed: period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
−Removed: Use of Estimates
−Removed: The preparation of financial statements
−Removed: in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
−Removed: and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
−Removed: and expenses during the reporting period.
−Removed: ATLAS CREST INVESTMENT CORP.
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: Making estimates requires management to
−Removed: exercise significant judgment.
−Removed: It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or
−Removed: set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate,
−Removed: could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events.
−Removed: Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly
−Removed: from those estimates.
−Removed: Cash and Cash Equivalents
−Removed: The Company considers all short-term investments
−Removed: with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
−Removed: The Company did not have any cash equivalents
−Removed: as of December 31, 2020.
−Removed: Investments Held in Trust Account
−Removed: At December 31, 2020, the assets held
−Removed: in the Trust Account were held in U.S.
−Removed: Treasury securities and classified as trading.
−Removed: Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
−Removed: Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing
−Removed: Liabilities from Equity .
−Removed: Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured
−Removed: at fair value.
−Removed: Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within
−Removed: the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s
−Removed: control) is classified as temporary equity.
−Removed: At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’
−Removed: The Company’s
−Removed: common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to
−Removed: occurrence of uncertain future events.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020, 49,635,954 shares of Class A common stock subject
−Removed: to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’
−Removed: equity section
−Removed: of the Company’s balance sheet.
−Removed: Offering Costs associated with the Initial
−Removed: Public Offering
−Removed: The Company complies with the requirements
−Removed: of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering .
−Removed: Offering costs consist principally
−Removed: of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering and
−Removed: were charged to stockholders’
−Removed: equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
−Removed: Accordingly, as of December 31,
−Removed: 2020, offering costs in the aggregate of $10,534,144 have been charged to stockholders’
−Removed: equity (consisting of a $10,000,000

−Removed: and reporting for income taxes.
−Removed: Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement
−Removed: and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and

−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition
−Removed: threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected
−Removed: to be taken in a tax return.
−Removed: For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon
−Removed: examination by taxing authorities.
−Removed: The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits,
−Removed: if any, as income tax expense.
−Removed: There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of
−Removed: December 31, 2020.
−Removed: The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments,
−Removed: accruals or material deviation from its position.
−Removed: The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities
−Removed: since inception.
−Removed: Net Earnings ( Loss) Per Share
−Removed: Net earnings (loss) per share is computed
−Removed: by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
−Removed: The Company has
−Removed: not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Public Offering and Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 24,666,667
−Removed: shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future
−Removed: events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.
−Removed: The Company’s statement
−Removed: of operations includes a presentation of earnings (loss) per share for common shares subject to possible redemption and applies
−Removed: the two-class method in calculating earnings (loss) per share.
−Removed: Net earnings per common share, basic and diluted, for Class A redeemable
−Removed: common stock is calculated by dividing the allocable interest income earned on the Trust Account, net of applicable franchise and
−Removed: income taxes, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding since original issuance.
−Removed: share, basic and diluted, for Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss, adjusted
−Removed: for income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of Class B non-redeemable common stock
−Removed: outstanding for the period.
−Removed: Class B non-redeemable common stock includes the Founder Shares as these shares do not have any redemption
−Removed: features and do not participate in the income earned on the Trust Account.
−Removed: The following table reflects the calculation
−Removed: of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in dollars, except per share amounts):
−Removed: For the Period
−Removed: Redeemable Class A Common Stock
−Removed: Earnings allocable to Redeemable Class A Common Stock
−Removed: Unrealized gain on investments held in Trust Account
−Removed: Franchise tax expense
−Removed: Weighted average Redeemable Class A Common Stock
−Removed: Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, Redeemable Class A Common Stock
−Removed: Basic and diluted net earnings per share, Redeemable Class A Common Stock
−Removed: Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Common Stock
−Removed: Net loss minus net earnings
−Removed: Non-redeemable net loss
−Removed: Weighted average Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Common Stock
−Removed: Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Common Stock
−Removed: Basic and diluted net loss per share, Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Common Stock
−Removed: Concentration of Credit Risk
−Removed: Financial instruments that potentially
−Removed: subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed
−Removed: the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000.
−Removed: The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes
−Removed: the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
−Removed: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair
−Removed: Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition
−Removed: of fair value within that framework.
−Removed: ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for
−Removed: an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction
−Removed: between market participants on the measurement date.
−Removed: The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity
−Removed: to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
−Removed: Observable inputs
−Removed: reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market
−Removed: data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity.
−Removed: Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions
−Removed: based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset
−Removed: or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
−Removed: ATLAS CREST INVESTMENT CORP.
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2020
−Removed: The carrying amounts reflected in the balance
−Removed: sheet for cash, prepaid expenses and accrued offering costs approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
−Removed: Level 1 — Assets and liabilities
−Removed: with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges.
−Removed: Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such
−Removed: as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
−Removed: Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value
−Removed: measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct
−Removed: or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
−Removed: Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value
−Removed: measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists
−Removed: for the assets or liabilities.
−Removed: Recent Accounting Standards
−Removed: Management does not believe that any recently
−Removed: issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s
−Removed: financial statements.
−Removed: INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
−Removed: The registration statement for the Company’s
−Removed: Initial Public Offering was declared effective on October 27, 2020.
−Removed: On October 30, 2020, the Company completed its Initial Public
−Removed: Offering of 50,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $500,000,000.
−Removed: Each Unit consisted of one share of
−Removed: Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value, and one-third of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”).
−Removed: Each Public Warrant
−Removed: entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).
−Removed: The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day
−Removed: option to purchase up to 7,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting
−Removed: discounts and commissions.
−Removed: The over-allotment option expired without being exercised in any part.
−Removed: The underwriter was paid a cash
−Removed: underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $10,000,000 in the aggregate upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
−Removed: PRIVATE PLACEMENT
−Removed: Simultaneously with the closing of the
−Removed: Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,000,000 warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement
−Removed: (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $12,000,000.
−Removed: Each Private Placement
−Removed: Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share.
−Removed: The proceeds from the sale
−Removed: of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.
−Removed: the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement
−Removed: Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private
−Removed: Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
