Our registration statement for our initial public

offering was declared effective on March 17, 2021.

On March 23, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 30,000,000 units (the

“Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”),

at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $300.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $17.2 million, inclusive

On April 7, 2021, the underwriter exercised the over-allotment option

in part and purchased an additional 2,369,251 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating additional gross proceeds of

$23,692,510 (such offering, including the exercise of the over-allotment, the “Initial Public Offering”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial

Public Offering, we consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 1,030,000 Units (the “Private Placement

Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $10.3 million.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering,

sale of the Over-Allotment Units, and the Private Placement, $323.7 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units

with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee and invested in United States “government securities”

within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting

government treasury obligations,

as determined by us, until the earlier of:

(i) the completion of an initial business combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust

Account to the shareholders.

However, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company

(including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act), on February 10, 2023, we instructed Continental

Stock Transfer & Trust Company to liquidate the U.S.

government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account

and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of consummation

of an initial business combination or liquidation.

If we are unable to complete an initial business

combination by the Extended Date (as defined below), we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly

as reasonably possible but no more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price,

payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (less taxes payable and

up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will

completely extinguish holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) rights as shareholders (including the right

to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject

to the approval of the remaining shareholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to its obligations

In this meeting

the shareholders approved amendments to our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which we

“Original Extended Date”) and to provide for the right of a holder of our Class A ordinary shares to convert into Class A

ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of an initial business combination.

In connection with the March EGM, shareholders

holding an aggregate of 30,006,034 of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for approximately

$10.20 per share, or an aggregate total of $306,106,987, of the funds held in our Trust Account, leaving approximately $24.1 million in

the Trust Account after such redemption.

Subsequently, it was determined that the redemption value per share was approximately $10.22

per share, or an aggregate total of $306,691,945, of the funds held in the Trust Account resulting in a secondary distribution to the

redeeming shareholders of approximately $0.02 per share, or an aggregate total of $584,958.

On September 22, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary

general meeting of shareholders in lieu of annual general meeting (the “September EGM”).

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash of $18,752.

Our liquidity needs prior to the consummation

of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to cover certain expenses on our behalf in

exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares (as defined below), a loan under a note agreement from our Sponsor of approximately $149,000

(the “Note”), and the net proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination,

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related

disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates

and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date

of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported.

Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

We have identified the following critical accounting policy:

Warrant Liabilities

do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks.

We evaluate all of our financial

instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants and forward purchase agreements, to determine if such instruments are derivatives

or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”

(“ASC 480”) and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”).

The classification of

derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end

of each reporting period.

warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities

in accordance with ASC 815.

Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments

to fair value at each reporting period.

The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and

any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations.

The initial estimated fair value of the warrants

was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation.

The subsequent estimated fair value of the Public Warrants is based on the listed price

in an active market for such warrants while the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants continues to be measured using a Monte Carlo

A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

account for our Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480.

Class A ordinary shares

subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value.

Conditionally redeemable

Class A ordinary shares (including Class ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder

or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary

At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.

The Company’s Public Shares feature

certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain

future events.

Accordingly, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 2,363,217 and 32,369,251 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible

redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheet.

with the closing of the Public Offering (including sale of the Over-Allotment Units), we recognized the accretion from initial book value

to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.

(Loss) Income per ordinary share

have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption and non-redeemable Class

A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares.

Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares.

Net (loss) income

per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted average of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective

calculation of diluted net (loss) income per ordinary shares does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the

Public Offering (including sale of the Over-Allotment Units) and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 16,699,626 ordinary

shares in the calculation of diluted (loss) income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion

would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

As a result, diluted net (loss) income per share is the same as basic net (loss)

income per share for the period ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary

shares is excluded from net (loss) income per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Accounting Standards

June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”).

This update requires financial assets

measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected.

The measurement of expected credit losses

is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable

forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.

Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates to the new standard

including changing the effective date for smaller reporting companies.

The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December

15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

We do not use derivative instruments to hedge

exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks.

We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including issued stock purchase

warrants and forward purchase agreements, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded

derivatives, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and FASB ASC

Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”).

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether

such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

The warrants issued in connection with the Initial

Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815.

Accordingly, we

recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period.

liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the

Company’s statements of operations.

The initial estimated fair value of the warrants was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation.

The subsequent estimated fair value of the Public Warrants is based on the listed price in an active market for such warrants while the

fair value of the Private Placement Warrants continues to be measured using a Monte Carlo simulation.

Class A ordinary shares subject to possible

We account for our Class A ordinary shares subject

to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480.

Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are

classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value.

Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class

ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence

of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity.

At all other times, Class A ordinary

shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.

The Company’s Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered

to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.

Accordingly, as of September 30,

2023 and December 31, 2022, 1,837,593 and 32,369,251 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption

value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheet.

Effective with the closing of the Public Offering

(including sale of the Over-Allotment Units), we recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted

in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.

Net (Loss) Income per ordinary share

We have two classes of shares, which are referred

to as Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption and non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares.

and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares.

Net (loss) income per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net

(loss) income by the weighted average of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.

The calculation of diluted net (loss) income per

ordinary shares does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering (including sale of the Over-Allotment

Units) and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 16,699,626 ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted (loss) income per

share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

As a result, diluted net (loss) income per share is the same as basic net (loss) income per share for the period ended September 30, 2023

and December 31, 2022.

Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net (loss) income per share as

the redemption value approximates fair value.

Recent Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards

Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326):

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial

Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”).

This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the

net amount expected to be collected.

The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including

historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.

Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates to the new standard including changing the effective date for smaller reporting companies.

The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early

adoption permitted.
