−Removed: Specifically, the SEC Statement focused on certain settlement terms and provisions related to certain tender offers
−Removed: following a business combination, which terms are similar to those contained in the warrant agreement, dated as of November 5, 2020, between
−Removed: the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”).
−Removed: In further consideration
−Removed: of the SEC Statement, the Company’s management further evaluated the Warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
−Removed: Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.
−Removed: ASC Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification
−Removed: of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only
−Removed: if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s common stock.
−Removed: Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed
−Removed: to the issuer’s common stock if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and
−Removed: that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant.
−Removed: Based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee,
−Removed: in consultation with management, concluded that the Company’s Private Placement Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s
−Removed: common stock in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15 because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing
−Removed: of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares.
−Removed: In addition, based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee,
−Removed: in consultation with management, concluded that the tender offer provision fails the “classified in stockholders’ equity”
−Removed: criteria as contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-25.
−Removed: As a result of the above,
−Removed: the Company should have classified the Warrants as derivative liabilities in its previously issued financial statements.
−Removed: Under this accounting
−Removed: treatment, the Company is required to measure the fair value of the Warrants at the end of each reporting period as well as re-evaluate
−Removed: the treatment of the warrants (including on December 17, 2020 and December 31, 2020) and recognize changes in the fair value from the
−Removed: prior period in the Company’s operating results for the current period.

+Added: The Company concluded it
+Added: should restate its previously issued financial statements by amending Amendment No.
+Added: 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, filed
+Added: with the SEC on June 22, 2021, to classify all Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in temporary equity.
+Added: In accordance
+Added: with ASC 480, paragraph 10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption
+Added: to be classified outside of permanent equity.
+Added: The Company had previously classified a portion of its Class A common stock in permanent
+Added: equity, or total stockholders’ equity.
+Added: Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter currently
+Added: provides that the Company will not redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.
+Added: Previously, the Company did not consider redeemable stock classified as temporary equity as part of net tangible assets.
+Added: Effective with
+Added: these financial statements, the Company revised this interpretation to include temporary equity in net tangible assets.
+Added: Also, in connection
+Added: with the change in presentation for the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, the Company also revised its earnings
+Added: per share calculation to allocate income and losses shared pro rata between the two classes of common stock.
+Added: This presentation contemplates
+Added: a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of common stock share pro rata in the income and losses
+Added: of the Company.
+Added: As a result, the Company restated its previously filed financial statements to present all redeemable Class A common
+Added: stock as temporary equity and to recognize accretion from the initial book value to redemption value at the time of its Initial Public
+Added: Offering and in accordance with ASC 480.
+Added: The Company’s previously filed financial statements that contained the error were initially
+Added: reported in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 23, 2020 (the “Post-IPO Balance Sheet”)
+Added: and the Company's Annual Report on 10-K for the annual period ended December 31, 2020, which were previously restated in the Company's
+Added: Amendment No.
+Added: 1 to its Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on June 22, 2021, as well as the Form 10-Qs for the quarterly
+Added: periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 (the “Affected Periods”).
+Added: These financial statements restate the
+Added: Company’s previously issued audited financial statements covering the periods through December 31, 2020.
+Added: The Company’s
+Added: unaudited financial statements for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 will be restated in an amendment
+Added: to the Company’s Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 to be filed with the SEC.
