We are a blank check company incorporated on February 9, 2021, as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this Report as our initial business combination.

To date, our efforts have been limited to organizational activities related to our initial public offering and our search for a suitable target for a potential business combination.

We have generated no operating revenues to date and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues until we consummate our initial business combination.

While we may pursue an initial business combination with a company in any business, industry, sector or geographic location, we are concentrating our efforts on pursuing an acquisition opportunity within the interactive media, digital media, sports, entertainment, and/or leisure, with a particular focus on video gaming, gaming adjacent, and new metaverse video gaming businesses.

However, we may pursue an initial business combination opportunity in any industry or sector (subject to certain limitations described in this prospectus).

Initial Public Offering

On February 23, 2022, we consummated our initial public offering of 28,750,000 units.

Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share.

The units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $287,500,000.

Prior to the closing of our initial public offering, the underwriters for our initial public offering exercised their over-allotment option in full.

Simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 9,763,333 warrants at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $14,645,000.

A total of $294,687,500, comprised of the proceeds from the initial public offering after offering expenses and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the private placement warrants, was placed in the trust account maintained by AST, acting as trustee.

We must complete our initial business combination by May 23, 2023 (or by the end of any Extension Period).

If our initial business combination is not consummated by May 23, 2023 (or by the end of any Extension Period if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination), then our existence will terminate, and we will distribute all amounts in the trust account.

Exempted companies are Cayman Islands companies wishing to conduct business outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempted from complying with certain provisions of the Companies Law.

As an exempted company, we have applied for and received a tax exemption undertaking from the Cayman Islands government that, in accordance with section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 20 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to us or our operations and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable (i) on or in respect of our shares, debentures or other obligations or (ii) by way of the withholding in whole or in part of a payment of dividend or other distribution of income or capital by us to our shareholders or a payment of principal or interest or other sums due under a debenture or other obligation of us.

Our Leadership

Our management team and board consist of seasoned industry executives that possess deep collective understanding of interactive media, digital media, sports, entertainment, and leisure, as well as the evolution of these sectors and market opportunities.

Target Industry Overview

We believe that many of the world’s most popular entertainment experiences and franchises are in gaming, and the category is intertwined with, and helps drive, other types of media ( e.g.

, film and TV, sports, and music).

In fact, according to IDC, the $203 billion

game industry is the fastest growing part of the global media and entertainment industry and has grown 19% in 2020.

IDC also reports that mobile gaming represents approximately half of the category and grew 22% year-over-year.

Globally, there are close to 2.7 billion gamers, a number growing 5-6% per annum, and nearly 40% of gamers are over the age of 35.

This user base is also highly engaged.

As many as 60% play daily, with the average player playing for over six hours a week, according to the ESA and Limelight Networks, respectively.

The industry is expected to sustain a compound annual growth rate of 9% from 2019 to 2022.

We anticipate that players, playtime per player, and spend per player will all increase.

Gaming and Gaming Adjacent Industry Trends

The gaming vertical is incredibly rich and diverse, spanning game studios, publishers, technology and infrastructure providers, and many other adjacencies including training, esports, betting, player networks, matchmaking, etc.

Our core themes are as follows:

● Social Games Without Game-Like Objectives:

We believe that the most popular gaming experiences today are focused not on game-like objectives such as “win”, “shoot”, “kill”, “score” or “defeat”, but on non-game-like ones such as “share”, “create”, “express”, “build” and “identify”.

Among the best-selling games on Nintendo Switch, Animal Crossing New Horizons has sold more units (31 million) than The Legend of Zelda:

Breath of the Wild (21 million) or Super Mario Odyssey (20 million).

Among Us , a social deduction game, had 500 million active players in November 2020, even though its developer, Innersloth, has a small team of employees.

● Multiplayer Games:

We believe that these titles benefit from powerful network effects that drive player stickiness, spending, and engagement time.

In success, a multiplayer game can reach tens of millions of players per month for years and generate a series of spinoffs.

● Multiplayer gaming technology and infrastructure:

As multiplayer and social games become more global, cross-platform, capable, important and lucrative, we believe the technologies required to support them will become more critical, differentiated and valuable.

● Games with Rich User Economies:

We anticipate that titles will continue to benefit from virtual economies, marketplaces, and user-generated content toolsets.

We believe that, even with smaller user bases, games with rich user economies can be highly profitable and grow both quickly and enormously.

● Cross-Platforms Tools:

Engines, toolsets, and other technologies that allow for amateur or independent developers to more easily, efficiently, and profitably create games.

● Cloud Gaming:

Game delivery technologies, from arcade to PC, console, mobile, and AR have unlocked billions of dollars in new user-spend and created brand new studios, publishers, intellectual property and supporting technology companies.

NewZoo estimates that cloud gaming market revenue will rise from $585 million in 2020 to $4.8 billion by 2023.

● Video Game Broadcasting:

The live streaming of video game related content has gained significant traction in recent years, growing exponentially due to platforms such as Twitch (Amazon) and YouTube (Google).

According to Streamlabs, nearly 7.5 billion hours of streamed gaming content was watched globally in Q3 ‘20 alone, representing growth of 91.8%, year over year.

We anticipate that this will lead to brand new experiences, brands, and companies.

The trends described above demonstrate the continuing evolution of the video game industry and video game adjacencies towards a more integrated digital economy.

Three extremely important metaverse sectors for PowerUp to explore are Virtual Platforms, Payments, and Content, Services, and Assets.

It is already clear that Web3 infrastructure will play a major role in the future of games, with new ways to trade and own in-game assets and create true user owned and managed economies.

Many new companies, growing as rapidly as blockchain games, will emerge to service the metaverse.

Tim Sweeney, the founder and CEO of Epic Games, believes the metaverse has the potential to be a “multi-trillion-dollar part of the world economy.”

This past year blockchain based games like Axie Infinity ($30B Coin market cap), Dapper Labs with NBA Top Shot, and NFT communities like Bored Ape Yacht Club and CryptoPunks have commanded the collective consciousness of tech, gaming, and beyond.

In Q3 2021 NFT growth exploded and there is still much room to grow as only 280,000 people in the world trade NFTs.

That equates to just 0.01% of gamers across the world.

Among the specific elements driving the Q3 NFT surge were Axie infinity, NBA Top Shot, and digital art (e.g.

Bored Apes, CryptoPunks and ArtBlocks), as well as celebrities and athletes with their own NFT collections.

We believe these industries provide significant incremental opportunities to explore.

Emergen Research estimates the metaverse market size at $48 billion in 2020 growing at a 43% CAGR to $829 billion by 2028 and Grand View Research estimates the global blockchain technology market to reach $395 billion by 2028 based on a CAGR of 82% from 2021 to 2028.

As these emerging trends drive incremental revenue and growth in the market, our potential targets could benefit as well.

Acquisition Criteria

We have established the criteria and guidelines listed below in accordance with our strategy, which we believe are important in evaluating prospective targets.

However, may decide to enter into our initial business combination with a target business that does not meet these criteria and guidelines.

As an exempted company, we have applied for and received a tax exemption undertaking from

the Cayman Islands government that, in accordance with section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, for

a period of 20 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on

the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on May 18, 2023, our shareholders approved an amendment to our amended and restated

memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which we must consummate an initial business combination from May 23, 2023

to May 23, 2024.

In connection with the meeting, shareholders holding approximately 26,946,271 Class A ordinary shares exercised their

right to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the trust account.

Following the redemptions, we had approximately

1,803,729 Class A ordinary shares outstanding.

Share Conversion

May 18, 2023, following the extraordinary general meeting, shareholders holding all of the issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares

elected to convert their Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Sponsor Share Conversion”).

As a result, 7,187,500 of our Class B ordinary shares were cancelled and 7,187,500 of our Class A ordinary shares were issued to such

converting Class B shareholders.

The converting Class B shareholders agreed that all of the terms and conditions applicable to the Class

B ordinary shares set forth in the Letter Agreement, dated February 17, 2022, by and among the Company, its officers, its directors and

the Class B shareholders (the “Letter Agreement”), shall continue to apply to the Class A ordinary shares that the Class

B ordinary shares converted into, including the voting agreement, transfer restrictions and waiver of any right, title, interest or claim

of any kind to the Trust Account or any monies or other assets held therein.

Following the Sponsor Share Conversion, and the redemptions

mentioned above, we had approximately 8,991,229 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding and no Class B ordinary shares issued

and outstanding.

Purchase Agreement

July 14, 2023, we entered into a purchase agreement (the “Sponsor Purchase Agreement”) with the Original Sponsor and the

Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to purchase from the Original Sponsor 4,317,500 of our Class A ordinary shares and 6,834,333

private placement warrants, each exercisable for one Class A Ordinary Share for an aggregate purchase price of $1.00 (the “Sponsor

Purchase Price”), payable at the time we complete an initial business combination.

In addition to the payment of the Sponsor Purchase

Price, the Sponsor also assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Original Sponsor related to the Company.

On August 18, 2023,

the parties to the Sponsor Purchase Agreement closed the transactions contemplated thereby.

Combination Agreement

December 26, 2023, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with PowerUp Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned

In the event that we decide to enter into our initial business combination with a target business that does not meet any or all of the above criteria and guidelines, we intend to disclose that the target business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial business combination, which, as discussed in our prospectus dated February 17, 2022, would be in the form of proxy solicitation or tender offer materials that we would file with the SEC.

Our Acquisition Process

In evaluating a prospective target business, we conduct a comprehensive due diligence review.

That due diligence review may include, among other things, financial statement analysis, document reviews, meetings with the target’s management and other employees, consultations with relevant industry experts, competitors, customers and suppliers, as well as a review of additional information that we will seek to obtain as part of our analysis of a target company.

We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a business that is affiliated with our sponsor or a member of our management team.

In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a business that is affiliated with our sponsor or a member of our management team, we, or a committee of independent and disinterested directors, intend to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.

We are not required to obtain such an opinion in any other context.

Certain of our directors and officers presently have, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other entities, pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entities.

Initial Business Combination

So long as our securities are then listed on the Nasdaq, our initial business combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the trust account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the trust account) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business combination.

Our board of directors intends to make the determination as to fair market value of our initial business combination.

While we consider it unlikely that our board of directors will not be able to make an independent determination of the fair market value of a target business or businesses, it may be unable to do so if the board of directors is less familiar or experienced with the target business, there is a significant amount of uncertainty as to the value of the target’s assets or prospects, including if such target is at an early stage of development, operations or growth, or if the anticipated transaction involves a complex financial analysis or other specialized skills and the board of directors determines that outside expertise would be helpful or necessary in conducting such analysis.

If our board of directors is unable to independently determine the fair market value of the target business or businesses, we intend to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or an independent accounting firm with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria.

Unless such opinion includes material information regarding the valuation of a target business or the consideration to be provided, it is not anticipated that copies of such opinion would be distributed to our shareholders.

However, if required under applicable law, any proxy statement that we deliver to shareholders and file with the SEC in connection with a proposed transaction will include such opinion.

We have also agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination without the prior consent of our sponsor.

Additionally, pursuant to Nasdaq rules, any initial business combination must be approved by a majority of our independent directors.

We anticipate structuring our initial business combination so that the post-business combination company in which our public shareholders own shares will own or acquire 100% of the equity interests or assets of the target business or businesses.

We may, however, structure our initial business combination such that the post-business combination company owns or acquires less than 100% of such interests or assets of the target business in order to meet certain objectives of the target management team or shareholders or for other reasons, but we will only complete such business combination if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which we refer to as the Investment Company Act.

Even if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target, our shareholders prior to the business combination may collectively own a minority interest in the post-business combination company, depending on valuations ascribed to the target and us in the business combination.

For example, we could pursue a transaction in which we issue a substantial number of new shares in exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock, shares or other equity interests of a target.

In this case, we would acquire a 100% controlling interest in the target.

However, as a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new shares, our shareholders immediately prior to our initial business combination could own less than a majority of our outstanding shares subsequent to our initial business combination.

If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses are owned or acquired by the post-business combination company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% of net assets test.

If the business combination involves more than one target

business, the 80% of net assets test will be based on the aggregate value of all of the target businesses.

If our securities are not then listed on the Nasdaq for whatever reason, we would no longer be required to meet the foregoing 80% of net assets test.

The time required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete our initial business combination, and the costs associated with this process, are not currently ascertainable with any degree of certainty.

Any costs incurred with respect to the identification and evaluation of a prospective target business with which our initial business combination is not ultimately completed will result in our incurring losses and will reduce the funds we can use to complete another business combination.

Status as a Public Company

We believe our structure makes us an attractive business combination partner to target businesses.

As an existing public company, we offer a target business an alternative to the traditional initial public offering through a merger or other business combination with us.

In a business combination transaction with us, the owners of the target business may, for example, exchange their shares of stock, shares or other equity interests in the target business for our Class A ordinary shares (or shares of a new holding company) or for a combination of our Class A ordinary shares and cash, allowing us to tailor the consideration to the specific needs of the sellers.

Although there are various costs and obligations associated with being a public company, we believe target businesses will find this method a more expeditious and cost-effective method to becoming a public company than the typical initial public offering.

The typical initial public offering process takes a significantly longer period of time than the typical business combination transaction process, and there are significant expenses in the initial public offering process, including underwriting discounts and commissions, that may not be present to the same extent in connection with a business combination with us.

Furthermore, once a proposed business combination is completed, the target business will have effectively become public, whereas an initial public offering is always subject to the underwriters’ ability to complete the offering, as well as general market conditions, which could delay or prevent the offering from occurring or have negative valuation consequences.

Once public, we believe the target business would then have greater access to capital, an additional means of providing management incentives consistent with shareholders’ interests and the ability to use its shares as currency for acquisitions.

Being a public company can offer further benefits by enhancing a company’s profile among potential new customers and vendors and aid in attracting talented employees.

While we believe that our structure and our management team’s backgrounds makes us an attractive business partner, some potential target businesses may view our status as a blank check company, such as our lack of an operating history and our ability to seek shareholder approval of any proposed initial business combination, negatively.

We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act.

As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with a business that is affiliated with our Sponsor

or a member of our management team, we, or a committee of independent and disinterested directors, intend to obtain an opinion from an

independent investment banking firm that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) or an independent

accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.

We are not required to obtain

such an opinion in any other context.

such entities.

have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the trust account (excluding the deferred underwriting

commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the trust account) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection

with our initial business combination.

Our board of directors intends to make the determination as to fair market value of our initial

business combination.

While we consider it unlikely that our board of directors will not be able to make an independent determination

of the fair market value of a target business or businesses, it may be unable to do so if the board of directors is less familiar or

if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target, our shareholders prior

to the business combination may collectively own a minority interest in the post-business combination company, depending on valuations

ascribed to the target and us in the business combination.

For example, we could pursue a transaction in which we issue a substantial

number of new shares in exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock, shares or other equity interests of a target.

In this case,

we would acquire a 100% controlling interest in the target.

However, as a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new shares,

our shareholders immediately prior to our initial business combination could own less than a majority of our outstanding shares subsequent

to our initial business combination.

If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses are owned

or acquired by the post-business combination company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will

be valued for purposes of the 80% of net assets test.

If the business combination involves more than one target business, the 80% of

net assets test will be based on the aggregate value of all of the target businesses.

If our securities are not listed on Nasdaq for

whatever reason, we would no longer be required to meet the foregoing 80% of net assets test.

time required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete our initial business combination, and the costs

associated with this process, are not currently ascertainable with any degree of certainty.

Any costs incurred with respect to the identification

and evaluation of a prospective target business with which our initial business combination is not ultimately completed will result in

our incurring losses and will reduce the funds we can use to complete another business combination.

as a Public Company

believe our structure makes us an attractive business combination partner to target businesses.

As an existing public company, we offer

a target business an alternative to the traditional initial public offering through a merger or other business combination with us.

a business combination transaction with us, the owners of the target business may, for example, exchange their shares of stock, shares

or other equity interests in the target business for our Class A ordinary shares (or shares of a new holding company) or for a combination

of our Class A ordinary shares and cash, allowing us to tailor the consideration to the specific needs of the sellers.

there are various costs and obligations associated with being a public company, we believe target businesses will find this method a

more expeditious and cost-effective method to becoming a public company than the typical initial public offering.

The typical initial

public offering process takes a significantly longer period of time than the typical business combination transaction process, and there

are significant expenses in the initial public offering process, including underwriting discounts and commissions, that may not be present

to the same extent in connection with a business combination with us.

once a proposed business combination is completed, the target business will have effectively become public, whereas an initial public

offering is always subject to the underwriters’ ability to complete the offering, as well as general market conditions, which could

delay or prevent the offering from occurring or have negative valuation consequences.

Once public, we believe the target business would

then have greater access to capital, an additional means of providing management incentives consistent with shareholders’ interests

and the ability to use its shares as currency for acquisitions.

Being a public company can offer further benefits by enhancing a company’s

profile among potential new customers and vendors and aid in attracting talented employees.

we believe that our structure and our management team’s backgrounds makes us an attractive business partner, some potential target

businesses may view our status as a blank check company, such as our lack of an operating history and our ability to seek shareholder

approval of any proposed initial business combination, negatively.

are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act.

we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies

that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation

requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic

reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and

shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

If some investors find our securities less attractive

as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended

transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise

apply to private companies.

We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Class A ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the preceding second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K.

Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements.

We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our ordinary

shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the last business day of that year’s second fiscal quarter, or (2) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of that year’s second fiscal quarter.

Until the completion of our initial business combination, only holders of our founder shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors.

As a result, the Nasdaq will consider us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards.

Under the Nasdaq corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements.

We have not utilized these exemptions and have complied with the corporate governance requirements of the Nasdaq, subject to applicable phase-in rules.

However, if we determine in the future to utilize some or all of these exemptions, our shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.

Financial Position

With funds available for a business combination initially in the amount of $283,875,000, assuming no redemptions and after payment of $10,812,500 of deferred underwriting commissions), before fees and expenses associated with our initial business combination, we offer a target business a variety of options such as creating a liquidity event for its owners, providing capital for the potential growth and expansion of its operations or strengthening its balance sheet by reducing its debt ratio.

Because we are able to complete our initial business combination using our cash, debt or equity securities, or a combination of the foregoing, we have the flexibility to use the most efficient combination that will allow us to tailor the consideration to be paid to the target business to fit its needs and desires.

However, we have not taken any steps to secure third party financing and there can be no assurance it will be available to us.

Effecting Our Initial Business Combination

We are not presently engaged in, and we will not engage in, any operations for an indefinite period of time following the IPO.

We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the placement warrants, our shares, debt or a combination of these as the consideration to be paid in our initial business combination.

We may, although we do not currently intend to, seek to complete our initial business combination with a company or business that may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth, start-up companies or companies with speculative business plans or excess leverage, which would subject us to the numerous risks inherent in such companies and businesses.

If our initial business combination is paid for using equity or debt securities, or not all of the funds released from the trust account are used for payment of the consideration in connection with our initial business combination or used for redemptions of our Class A ordinary shares, we may apply the balance of the cash released to us from the trust account for general corporate purposes, including for maintenance or expansion of operations of the post-transaction company, the payment of principal or interest due on indebtedness incurred in completing our initial business combination, to fund the purchase of other companies or for working capital.

We may seek to raise additional funds through a private offering of debt or equity securities in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, and we may effectuate our initial business combination using the proceeds of such offering rather than using the amounts held in the trust account.

In the case of an initial business combination funded with assets other than the trust account assets, our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials disclosing the business combination would disclose the terms of the financing and, only if required by law, we would seek shareholder approval of such financing.

There are no prohibitions on our ability to raise funds privately or through loans in connection with our initial business combination.

At this time, we are not a party to any arrangement or understanding with any third party with respect to raising any additional funds through the sale of securities or otherwise.

Selection of a Target Business and Structuring of Our Initial Business Combination

The Nasdaq rules require that our initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the trust account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business combination.

we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Class A ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates

At this time, we are not a party to any arrangement or understanding with any third

of a Target Business and Structuring of Our Initial Business Combination

Nasdaq rules require that our initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate

fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the trust account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable

on interest earned) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business combination.

The fair market

value of the target or targets will be determined by our board of directors based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as discounted cash flow valuation or value of comparable businesses.

Our shareholders will be relying on the business judgment of our board of directors, which will have significant discretion in choosing the standard used to establish the fair market value of the target or targets, and different methods of valuation may vary greatly in outcome from one another.

Such standards used will be disclosed in our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, related to our initial business combination.

If our board of directors is not able to independently determine the fair market value of the target business or businesses, we will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm, with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria.

We do not intend to purchase multiple businesses in unrelated industries in conjunction with our initial business combination.

Subject to this requirement, our management will have virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting one or more prospective target businesses, although we will not be permitted to effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.

In any case, we will only complete an initial business combination in which we own or acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquire a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

If we own or acquire less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses, the portion of such business or businesses that are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% of net assets test.

There is no basis for investors in the IPO to evaluate the possible merits or risks of any target business with which we may ultimately complete our initial business combination.

To the extent we effect our initial business combination with a company or business that may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in such company or business.

Although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risk factors.

In evaluating a prospective target business, we expect to conduct a thorough due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and employees, document reviews, inspection of facilities, as well as a review of financial, operational, legal and other information which will be made available to us.

Lack of Business Diversification

For an indefinite period of time after the completion of our initial business combination, the prospects for our success may depend entirely on the future performance of a single business.

Unlike other entities that have the resources to complete business combinations with multiple entities in one or several industries, it is probable that we will not have the resources to diversify our operations and mitigate the risks of being in a single line of business.

By completing our initial business combination with only a single entity, our lack of diversification may:

subject us to negative economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact on the particular industry in which we operate after our initial business combination;

cause us to depend on the marketing and sale of a single product or limited number of products or services.

Limited Ability to Evaluate the Target’s Management Team

Although we intend to closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business when evaluating the desirability of effecting our initial business combination with that business, our assessment of the target business’s management may not prove to be correct.

In addition, the future management may not have the necessary skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company.

Furthermore, the future role of members of our management team, if any, in the target business cannot presently be stated with any certainty.

it is possible that one or more of our directors will remain associated in some capacity with us following our initial business combination, it is unlikely that any of them will devote their full efforts to our affairs subsequent to our initial business combination.

Moreover, we cannot assure you that members of our management team will have significant experience or knowledge relating to the operations of the particular target business.

We cannot assure you that any of our key personnel will remain in senior management or advisory positions with the combined company.

The determination as to whether any of our key personnel will remain with the combined company will be made at the time of our initial business combination.

Following a business combination, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management of the target business.

We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that such additional managers will have the requisite skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management.

Shareholders May Not Have the Ability to Approve Our Initial Business Combination

We may conduct redemptions without a shareholder vote pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC subject to the provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

However, we will seek shareholder approval if it is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement, or we may decide to seek shareholder approval for business or other reasons.

Under the Nasdaq listing rules, shareholder approval would typically be required for our initial business combination if, for example:

● we issue ordinary shares that will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of our ordinary shares then-outstanding (other than in a public offering);

● any of our directors, officers or substantial security holder (as defined by the Nasdaq rules) has a 5% or greater interest, directly or indirectly, in the target business or assets to be acquired or otherwise and the present or potential issuance of ordinary shares could result in an increase in issued and outstanding ordinary shares or voting power of 1% or more (or 5% or more if the related party involved is classified as such solely because such person is a substantial security holder);

● the issuance or potential issuance of ordinary shares will result in our undergoing a change of control.

The decision as to whether we will seek shareholder approval of a proposed business combination in those instances in which shareholder approval is not required by law will be made by us, solely in our discretion, and will be based on business and legal reasons, which include a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

● the timing of the transaction, including in the event we determine shareholder approval would require additional time and there is either not enough time to seek shareholder approval or doing so would place the company at a disadvantage in the transaction or result in other additional burdens on the company;

● the expected cost of holding a shareholder vote;

● the risk that the shareholders would fail to approve the proposed business combination;

● other time and budget constraints of the company;

● additional legal complexities of a proposed business combination that would be time-consuming and burdensome to present to shareholders.

Permitted Purchases and Other Transactions with Respect to Our Securities

In the event we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our sponsor, directors, officers or their affiliates may purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our initial business combination.

There is no limit on the number of shares such persons may purchase.

However, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions.

In the event our sponsor, directors, officers or their affiliates determine to make any such purchases at the time of a shareholder vote relating to our initial business combination, such purchases could have the effect of influencing the vote necessary to approve such transaction.

None of the funds in the trust account will be used to purchase shares in such transactions.

They will not make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or if such purchases are prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act.

Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of our shares is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights.

Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, we adopted an insider trading policy which requires insiders to:

(i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with our legal counsel prior to execution.

We cannot currently determine whether our insiders will make such purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, as it will be dependent upon several factors, including but not limited to, the timing and size of such purchases.

Depending on such circumstances, our insiders may either make such purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or determine that such a plan is not necessary.

In the event that our sponsor, directors, officers or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares.

We do not currently anticipate that such purchases, if any, would constitute a tender offer subject to the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act or a going-private transaction subject to the going-private rules under the Exchange Act;

however, if the purchasers determine at the time of any such purchases that the purchases are subject to such rules, the purchasers will comply with such rules.

The purpose of such purchases would be to (i) vote such shares in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining shareholder approval of the business combination or (ii) to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met.

This may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible.

In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our ordinary shares may be reduced and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, which may make it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

Our sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates anticipate that they may identify the shareholders with whom our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates may pursue privately negotiated purchases by either the shareholders contacting us directly or by our receipt of redemption requests submitted by shareholders following our mailing of proxy solicitation materials in connection with our initial business combination.

To the extent that our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates enter into a private purchase, they would identify and contact only potential selling shareholders who have expressed their election to redeem their shares for a pro rata share of the trust account or vote against the business combination.

Such persons would select the shareholders from whom to acquire shares based on the number of shares available, the negotiated price per share and such other factors as any such person may deem relevant at the time of purchase.

The price per share paid in any such transaction may be different than the amount per share a public shareholder would receive if it elected to redeem its shares in connection with our initial business combination.

Our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates will only purchase shares if such purchases comply with Regulation M under the Exchange Act and the other federal securities laws.

Any purchases by our sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates who are affiliated purchasers under Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act will only be made to the extent such purchases are able to be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18, which is a safe harbor from liability for manipulation under Section 9(a)(2) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act.

Rule 10b-18 has certain technical requirements that must be complied with in order for the safe harbor to be available to the purchaser.

Our sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates will not make purchases of ordinary shares if the purchases would violate Section 9(a)(2) or Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act.

Redemption Rights for Public Shareholders upon Completion of Our Initial Business Combination

We will provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their ordinary shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account

as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein.

The amount in the trust account is initially anticipated to be approximately $10.25 per public share.

The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay the underwriters.

value of the target or targets will be determined by our board of directors based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the

financial community, such as discounted cash flow valuation or value of comparable businesses.

privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our initial business combination.

is no limit on the number of shares such persons may purchase.

However, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage

in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions.

In the event our sponsor, directors,

officers or their affiliates determine to make any such purchases at the time of a shareholder vote relating to our initial business

combination, such purchases could have the effect of influencing the vote necessary to approve such transaction.

None of the funds in

the trust account will be used to purchase shares in such transactions.

They will not make any such purchases when they are in possession

of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or if such purchases are prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange

Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of our shares

is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights.

Subsequent to the consummation

of the IPO, we adopted an insider trading policy which requires insiders to:

(i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout

periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with our legal counsel prior

to execution.

We cannot currently determine whether our insiders will make such purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, as it will

be dependent upon several factors, including but not limited to, the timing and size of such purchases.

Depending on such circumstances,

our insiders may either make such purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or determine that such a plan is not necessary.

the event that our sponsor, directors, officers or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public

shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their

prior elections to redeem their shares.

We do not currently anticipate that such purchases, if any, would constitute a tender offer subject

to the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act or a going-private transaction subject to the going-private rules under the Exchange

however, if the purchasers determine at the time of any such purchases that the purchases are subject to such rules, the purchasers

will comply with such rules.

purpose of such purchases would be to (i) vote such shares in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of

obtaining shareholder approval of the business combination or (ii) to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that

requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where it appears

that such requirement would otherwise not be met.

This may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not

otherwise have been possible.

addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our ordinary shares may be reduced and the number of beneficial

holders of our securities may be reduced, which may make it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our

securities on a national securities exchange.

Sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates anticipate that they may identify the shareholders with whom our sponsor, officers,

directors or their affiliates may pursue privately negotiated purchases by either the shareholders contacting us directly or by our receipt

of redemption requests submitted by shareholders following our mailing of proxy solicitation materials in connection with our initial

business combination.

To the extent that our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates enter into a private purchase, they would

identify and contact only potential selling shareholders who have expressed their election to redeem their shares for a pro rata share

of the trust account or vote against the business combination.

Such persons would select the shareholders from whom to acquire shares

based on the number of shares available, the negotiated price per share and such other factors as any such person may deem relevant at

the time of purchase.

The price per share paid in any such transaction may be different than the amount per share a public shareholder

would receive if it elected to redeem its shares in connection with our initial business combination.

Our sponsor, officers, directors

or their affiliates will only purchase shares if such purchases comply with Regulation M under the Exchange Act and the other federal

securities laws.

purchases by our sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates who are affiliated purchasers under Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange

Act will only be made to the extent such purchases are able to be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18, which is a safe harbor from liability

for manipulation under Section 9(a)(2) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act.

Rule 10b-18 has certain technical requirements that must be

complied with in order for the safe harbor to be available to the purchaser.

Our sponsor, officers, directors and/or their affiliates

will not make purchases of ordinary shares if the purchases would violate Section 9(a)(2) or Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act.

Rights for Public Shareholders upon Completion of Our Initial Business Combination

will provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their ordinary shares upon the completion of

our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account

as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net

of taxes payable) divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein.

amount in the trust account is initially anticipated to be approximately $11.03 per public share.

The per-share amount we will distribute

to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay the underwriters.

The redemption rights will include the requirement that a beneficial holder must identify itself in order to validly redeem its shares.

Our sponsor, our directors, and our officers have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares held by them, and any public shares they may acquire during or after this offering in connection with the completion of our initial business combination.

Limitations on Redemptions

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that in no event will we redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 either prior to or upon consummation of an initial business combination (so that we do not then become subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules).

However, the proposed business combination may require:

(i) cash consideration to be paid to the target or its owners, (ii) cash to be transferred to the target for working capital or other general corporate purposes or (iii) the retention of cash to satisfy other conditions in accordance with the terms of the proposed business combination.

In the event the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all Class A ordinary shares that are validly submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cash conditions pursuant to the terms of the proposed business combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the business combination or redeem any shares, and all Class A ordinary shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof.

In addition, if accepting all properly submitted redemption requests in connection with an amendment we seek to make to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001, we would not proceed with the amendment or the related redemption of our public shares at such time.

Manner of Conducting Redemptions

We will provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A ordinary shares upon the completion of our initial business combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer.

The decision as to whether we will seek shareholder approval of a proposed business combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require us to seek shareholder approval under the law or stock exchange listing requirement.

Under Nasdaq rules, asset acquisitions and share purchases would not typically require shareholder approval while direct mergers with our company where we do not survive and any transactions where we issue more than 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares or seek to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association would require shareholder approval.

We intend to conduct redemptions without a shareholder vote pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC unless shareholder approval is required by law or stock exchange listing requirement or we choose to seek shareholder approval for business or other legal reasons.

So long as we obtain and maintain a listing for our securities on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with Nasdaq rules.

If a shareholder vote is not required and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association:

conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, which regulate issuer tender offers;

file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies.

Upon the public announcement of our initial business combination, we or our sponsor will terminate any plan established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 to purchase our Class A ordinary shares in the open market if we elect to redeem our public shares through a tender offer, to comply with Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act.

In the event we conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, our offer to redeem will remain open for at least 20 business days, in accordance with Rule 14e-1(a) under the Exchange Act, and we will not be permitted to complete our initial business combination until the expiration of the tender offer period.

In addition, the tender offer will be conditioned on public shareholders not tendering more

than a specified number of public shares which are not purchased by our sponsor, which number will be based on the requirement that we will only redeem our public shares so long as (after such redemption) our net tangible assets will be at least $5,000,001 either prior to or upon consummation of our initial business combination, after payment of the deferred underwriting commission (so that we are not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to our initial business combination.

If public shareholders tender more shares than we have offered to purchase, we will withdraw the tender offer and not complete the initial business combination.

If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law or stock exchange listing requirement, or we decide to obtain shareholder approval for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association:

conduct the redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules;

file proxy solicitation materials with the SEC.

We expect that a final proxy statement would be mailed to public shareholders at least 10 days prior to the shareholder vote.

However, we expect that a draft proxy statement would be made available to such shareholders well in advance of such time, providing additional notice of redemption if we conduct redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation.

Although we are not required to do so, we currently intend to comply with the substantive and procedural requirements of Regulation 14A in connection with any shareholder vote even if we are not able to maintain our Nasdaq listing or Exchange Act registration.

In the event that we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, we will distribute proxy solicitation materials and, in connection therewith, provide our public shareholders with the redemption rights described above upon completion of the initial business combination.

If we seek shareholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if we receive an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company.

In such case, pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with us, our sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree) to vote any founder shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of our initial business combination.

We expect that at the time of any shareholder vote relating to our initial business combination, our sponsor and its permitted transferees will own approximately 20.0% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote thereon.

Each public shareholder may elect to redeem their public shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

In addition, our sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of a business combination.

Limitation on Redemption upon Completion of Our Initial Business Combination if we Seek Shareholder Approval

If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in our initial public offering, which we refer to as “Excess Shares”, without our prior consent.

We believe this restriction will discourage shareholders from accumulating large blocks of shares, and subsequent attempts by such holders to use their ability to exercise their redemption rights against a proposed business combination as a means to force us, our sponsor or our management team to purchase their shares at a significant premium to the then-current market price or on other undesirable terms.

Absent this provision, a public shareholder holding more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in our initial public offering could threaten to exercise its redemption rights if such holder’s shares are not purchased by us, our sponsor or our management team at a premium to the then-current market price or on other undesirable terms.

By limiting our shareholders’ ability to redeem no more than 15% of the shares sold in our initial public offering without our prior consent, we believe we will limit the ability of a small group of shareholders to unreasonably attempt to block our ability to complete our initial business combination, particularly in connection with a business combination with a target that requires as a closing condition that we have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash.

However, we would not be restricting our shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against our initial business combination.

Tendering Share Certificates in Connection with a Tender Offer or Redemption Rights

We may require our public shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name,” to either tender their certificates (if any) to our transfer agent prior to the date set forth in the tender offer documents, or up to two business days prior to the vote on the proposal to approve the business combination in the event we distribute proxy materials, or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC System, rather than simply voting against the initial business combination.

The tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, that we will furnish to holders of our public shares in connection with our initial business combination will indicate whether we are requiring public shareholders to satisfy such delivery requirements.

Accordingly, a public shareholder would have from the time we send out our tender offer materials until the close of the tender offer period, or up to two days prior to the vote on the business combination if we distribute proxy materials, as applicable, to tender its shares if it wishes to seek to exercise its redemption rights.

Pursuant to the tender offer rules, the tender offer period will be not less than 20 business days and, in the case of a shareholder vote, a final proxy statement would be mailed to public shareholders at least 10 days prior to the shareholder vote.

Given the relatively short exercise period, it is advisable for shareholders to use electronic delivery of their public shares.

There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC System.

The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker a fee of approximately $100.00 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder.

However, this fee would be incurred regardless of whether or not we require holders seeking to exercise redemption rights to tender their shares.

The need to deliver shares is a requirement of exercising redemption rights regardless of the timing of when such delivery must be effectuated.

The foregoing is different from the procedures used by many blank check companies.

In order to perfect redemption rights in connection with their business combinations, many blank check companies would distribute proxy materials for the shareholders’ vote on an initial business combination, and a holder could simply vote against a proposed business combination and check a box on the proxy card indicating such holder was seeking to exercise his or her redemption rights.

After the business combination was approved, the company would contact such shareholder to arrange for him or her to deliver his or her certificate to verify ownership.

As a result, the shareholder then had an “option window” after the completion of the business combination during which he or she could monitor the price of the company’s shares in the market.

If the price rose above the redemption price, he or she could sell his or her shares in the open market before actually delivering his or her shares to the company for cancellation.

As a result, the redemption rights, to which shareholders were aware they needed to commit before the general meeting, would become “option” rights surviving past the completion of the business combination until the redeeming holder delivered its certificate.

The requirement for physical or electronic delivery prior to the meeting ensures that a redeeming shareholder’s election to redeem is irrevocable once the business combination is approved.

Any request to redeem such shares, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to two business days prior to the initially scheduled vote on the proposal to approve the business combination, unless otherwise agreed to by us.

Furthermore, if a holder of a public share delivered its certificate in connection with an election of redemption rights and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, such holder may simply request that the transfer agent return the certificate (physically or electronically).

It is anticipated that the funds to be distributed to holders of our public shares electing to redeem their shares will be distributed promptly after the completion of our initial business combination.

If our initial business combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then our public shareholders who elected to exercise their redemption rights would not be entitled to redeem their shares for the applicable pro rata share of the trust account.

In such case, we will promptly return any certificates delivered by public holders who elected to redeem their shares.

Redemption of Public Shares and Liquidation If No Initial Business Combination

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that we will have until May 23, 2023 (or until the end of any Extension Period) to consummate an initial business combination.

If we have not consummated an initial business combination by May 23, 2023 or by the end of any Extension Period, we will:

Our sponsor, our directors, and our officers have entered into the Letter Agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive

their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares held by them, and any public shares they may acquire during or after this

offering in connection with the completion of our initial business combination.

on Redemptions

However, the proposed business combination

(i) cash consideration to be paid to the target or its owners, (ii) cash to be transferred to the target for working capital

business combination.

In the event the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all Class A ordinary shares that

are validly submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cash conditions pursuant to the terms of the proposed business

combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the business combination or redeem any shares,

and all Class A ordinary shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof.

In addition, if accepting all properly

submitted redemption requests in connection with an amendment we seek to make to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of

on Redemption upon Completion of Our Initial Business Combination if we Seek Shareholder Approval

we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business

combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that a public

shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as

of Public Shares and Liquidation If No Initial Business Combination

amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that we will have until May 23, 2024 (or until the end of any Extension

Period) to consummate an initial business combination.

If we have not consummated an initial business combination by May 23, 2024 or

by the end of any Extension Period, we will:

(i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;

(ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the 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 on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish 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 our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to consummate an initial business combination by May 23, 2023 or by the end of any Extension Period.

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that, if we wind up for any other reason prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, we will follow the foregoing procedures with respect to the liquidation of the trust account as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to applicable Cayman Islands law.

Our initial shareholders and each member of our management team have entered into an agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any founder shares and placement shares (but will retain such rights for any public shares) they hold if we fail to consummate an initial business combination by May 23, 2023 or by the end of any Extension Period (although the initial shareholders, and each member of our management team will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame).

Our initial shareholders and each member of our management team have agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with us, that they will not propose any amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by May 23, 2023 or by the end of any Extension Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares, unless we provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any, divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares.

However, we may not redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 either prior to or upon consummation of an initial business combination (so that we do not then become subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules).

If this optional redemption right is exercised with respect to an excessive number of public shares such that we cannot satisfy the net tangible asset requirement, we would not proceed with the amendment or the related redemption of our public shares at such time.

This redemption right shall apply in the event of the approval of any such amendment, whether proposed by our initial shareholders, any member of our management team or any other person.

We expect that all costs and expenses associated with implementing our plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts remaining from the funds held outside the trust account (approximately $497,259 as of December 31, 2022), together with up to $100,000 of funds from the trust account available to us to pay dissolution expenses, although we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose.

If we were to expend all of the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the placement warrants, other than the proceeds deposited in the trust account, and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the trust account, the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders upon our dissolution would be $10.25.

The proceeds deposited in the trust account could, however, become subject to the claims of our creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of our public shareholders.

We cannot assure you that the actual per-share redemption amount received by shareholders will not be less than $10.25.

While we intend to pay such amounts, if any, we cannot assure you that we will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.

Although we seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses and other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of our public shareholders, there is no guarantee that such parties will execute such agreements or, even if such parties execute such agreements, that such parties would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account for, among other things, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account.

If any third-party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third-party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third-party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative.

Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third-party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third-party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver.

In addition, the underwriters of our initial public offering and our independent registered public accounting firm have not executed agreements with us waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account.

Further, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason.

In order to protect the amounts held in the trust account, our sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by (A) a third-party for services rendered or products sold to us (other than our independent registered public accounting firm), or (B) a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $10.25 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.20 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay our tax obligations, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of our initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third-party, our sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

However, we have not asked our sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently verified whether our sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that our sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company.

(ii) as promptly as reasonably

possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the 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 on the funds held in the trust account and not previously

released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding

public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish 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 our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations

under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

There will be no redemption

rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to consummate an initial business

combination by May 23, 2024 or by the end of any Extension Period.

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides

that, if we wind up for any other reason prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, we will follow the foregoing

procedures with respect to the liquidation of the trust account as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days

thereafter, subject to applicable Cayman Islands law.

to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any founder shares and placement shares (but

will retain such rights for any public shares) they hold if we fail to consummate an initial business combination by May 23, 2024 or

by the end of any Extension Period (although the initial shareholders, and each member of our management team will be entitled to liquidating

distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination

initial shareholders and each member of our management team have agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with us, that they will not

propose any amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing

of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial

business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by May 23, 2024 or

by the end of any Extension Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary

shares, unless we provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon approval of any such amendment

at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned

on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any, divided by the number of the then-outstanding

public shares.

Further, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive

any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will

not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason.

In order to protect the amounts held in the trust account, our sponsor has

agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by (A) a third-party for services rendered or products sold to us

(other than our independent registered public accounting firm), or (B) a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering

into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $11.03 per public share and (ii) the

actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $11.03

per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay our

tax obligations, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed

a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters

of our initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

In the event that an executed

waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third-party, our sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such

third-party claims.

However, we have not asked our sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently

verified whether our sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that our sponsor’s only assets

are securities of our company.

Therefore, we cannot assure you that our sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations.

None of our officers, directors or other affiliates will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

officers, directors or other affiliates will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors

and prospective target businesses.

Recourse against us and our sponsor will be limited as noted herein;

there will not be any recourse against any of our affiliates other than sponsor as noted herein.

In the event that the proceeds in the trust account are reduced below the lesser of (i) $10.25 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.20 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay our tax obligations, and our sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against our sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations.

While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against our sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance.

Accordingly, we cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be less than $10.25 per public share.

We seek to reduce the possibility that our sponsor will have to indemnify the trust account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the trust account.

However, there is no guarantee that such parties will execute such agreements or, even if such parties execute such agreements, that such parties would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account for, among other things, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account.

Our sponsor will also not be liable as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of our initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We have access to approximately $497,259 (based on the amount held outside of the trust account as of December 31, 2022) with which to pay any such potential claims (including costs and expenses incurred in connection with our liquidation, currently estimated to be no more than approximately $100,000).

In the event that we liquidate and it is subsequently determined that the reserve for claims and liabilities is insufficient, shareholders who received funds from our trust account could be liable for claims made by creditors, however such liability will not be greater than the amount of funds from our trust account received by any such shareholder.

If we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law, and may be included in our bankruptcy or insolvency estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders.

To the extent any bankruptcy or insolvency claims deplete the trust account, we cannot assure you we will be able to return $10.20 per public share to our public shareholders.

Additionally, if we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy or insolvency court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders.

Furthermore, our board of directors may be viewed as

having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing itself and our company to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.

Public shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the trust account upon the subsequent completion of an initial business combination or liquidation if we have not consummated an initial business combination by May 23, 2023 or by the end of any Extension Period with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed.

In no other circumstances will a shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account.

In the event we seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination, a shareholder’s voting in connection with the business combination alone will not result in a shareholder’s redeeming its shares to us for an applicable pro rata share of the trust account.

In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for our initial business combination, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including other blank check companies.

Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates.

Moreover, many of these competitors possess financial, technical, human and other resources greater than ours.

Our ability to acquire larger target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources.

This inherent limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business.

Furthermore, our obligation to pay cash in connection with our public shareholders who exercise their redemption rights may reduce the resources available to us for our initial business combination and our outstanding warrants, and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses.

Either of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating an initial business combination.

Human Capital Management

We currently have three officers.

These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to our affairs until we have completed our initial business combination.

The amount of time our officers devote in any time period varies based on the stage of the business combination process we are in.

We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination.

Periodic Reporting and Financial Information

We have registered our units, Class A ordinary shares and warrants under the Exchange Act and have reporting obligations, including the requirement that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC.

In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, our annual reports will contain financial statements audited and reported on by our independent registered public accountants.

We will provide shareholders with audited financial statements of the prospective target business as part of the proxy solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, sent to shareholders.

These financial statements may be required to be prepared in accordance with, or reconciled to, GAAP, or IFRS, depending on the circumstances, and the historical financial statements may be required to be audited in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

These financial statement requirements may limit the pool of potential target businesses we may acquire because some targets may be unable to provide such statements in time for us to disclose such statements in accordance with federal proxy rules and complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame.

We cannot assure you that any particular target business identified by us as a potential acquisition candidate will have financial statements prepared in accordance with

the requirements outlined above, or that the potential target business will be able to prepare its financial statements in accordance with the requirements outlined above.

To the extent that these requirements cannot be met, we may not be able to acquire the proposed target business.

These provisions

of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, like all provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles

To the extent that these requirements cannot be met, we may not be able to acquire the proposed

target business.

While this may limit the pool of potential acquisition candidates, we do not believe that this limitation will be material.

We will be required to evaluate our internal control procedures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Only in the event we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer and no longer qualify as an emerging growth company would we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting.

A target business may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of their internal controls.

The development of the internal controls of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete any such acquisition.

We have filed a Registration Statement on Form 8-A with the SEC to voluntarily register our securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

As a result, we will be subject to the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act.

We have no current intention of filing a Form 15 to suspend our reporting or other obligations under the Exchange Act prior or subsequent to the consummation of our initial business combination.

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company.

Exempted companies are Cayman Islands companies conducting business mainly outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempted from complying with certain provisions of the Companies Act.

As an exempted company, we have applied for and received a tax exemption undertaking from the Cayman Islands government that, in accordance with Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 20 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations will apply to us or our operations and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax will be payable (i) on or in respect of our shares, debentures or other obligations or (ii) by way of the withholding in whole or in part of a payment of dividend or other distribution of income or capital by us to our shareholders or a payment of principal or interest or other sums due under a debenture or other obligation of us.

We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act.

If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.
