+Added: In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related
+Added: Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.

−Removed: companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable.
−Removed: The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period,
−Removed: which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company,
