NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2021
Note 1— Organization, Business Operations
and Going Concern
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”)
is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 27, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose
of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more
businesses (the “Business Combination”).
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had not
commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021 relates to the Company’s
formation and the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”) which is described below, and, subsequent to the IPO, identifying a
target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues
until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the
form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The Company’s sponsor is Inflection Point
Holdings LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s
IPO was declared effective on September 21, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On September 24, 2021, the Company consummated the
IPO of 30,000,000 units at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Units”), which is discussed in Note 3. Each Unit consists of one Class A
ordinary share (the “Class A ordinary shares” or “Public Shares”) of the Company, par value $ 0.0001 , and one-half
of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”) of the Company, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase
one Class A ordinary share for $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The underwriters had a 45-day option from the Effective Date to
purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised
the over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment” and together with the IPO, the “Public Offering”) and purchased
an additional 2,975,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating additional gross proceeds of $ 29,750,000 , and forfeited
their option to purchase the remaining 1,535,000 Units (see Note 8).
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 6,250,000 warrants (each an “IPO Private Placement
Warrant”) to the Sponsor, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $ 11.50 per share, at a price of $ 1.00 per
IPO Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $ 6,250,000 , which is described in Note 4. On October 29, 2021,
simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor purchased an additional 595,000 warrants in a private placement
(the “Over-Allotment Private Placement Warrants” and together with the IPO Private Placement Warrants, the “Private
Placement Warrants”), generating aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $ 595,000 (see Note 8).
An aggregate of 12 qualified institutional buyers
(“Anchor Investors”) expressed an interest to purchase an aggregate of approximately $ 322.3 million of the Units sold in the
IPO. None of the Anchor Investors expressed an interest in purchasing more than 9.9 % of the Units sold in the IPO. The Anchor Investors
were allocated and purchased a total of 29,540,000 Units or 98.5 % of the Units sold in the IPO. One of the Anchor Investors, Kingstown
1740 Fund, LP, is an affiliate of the Sponsor, and was allocated and purchased 2,900,000 Units sold in the IPO.
In addition, subject to each Anchor Investor purchasing
100 % of the Units allocated to it, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor sold membership interests reflecting an allocation
of Class B ordinary shares, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) to each Anchor Investor, or an aggregate of
1,625,000 Founder Shares to all Anchor Investors (see Note 6). The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these Founder Shares
attributable to Anchor Investors to be approximately $ 9.68 million, or $ 5.96 per share. The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares
was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares
and the Public Warrants was all charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the IPO.
5
As of September 30, 2021, transaction costs amounted
to $ 15,271,938 consisting of $ 4,000,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 10,500,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, and $ 771,938 of
other offering costs, a nd was all charged to shareholders’ equity .
In connection with the closing of the Over-allotment
on October 29, 2021, the Company incurred additional transactions costs amounting to $ 1,636,250 consisting of $ 595,000 of underwriting
commissions and $ 1,041,250 of deferred underwriting commissions.
Following the closing of the IPO on September
24, 2021, $ 300,000,000 ($ 10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement
Warrants was deposited into a trust account (the “Trust Account”). Following the closing of the Over-Allotment on October
29, 2021, an additional $ 29,750,000 ($ 10.00 per Over-Allotment Unit) from the net proceeds from the sale of the Over-Allotment Units in
the Over-Allotment and the sale of the Over-Allotment Private Placement Units was deposited into the Trust Account. The proceeds deposited
in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under
the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on
the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay taxes, if any, the proceeds from the Public Offering and
the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of initial
Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company’s Public
Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial
Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within
24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial
Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors,
if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders.
The Company’s management has broad discretion
with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially
all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination (less deferred underwriting commissions).
The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at
least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust and taxes payable
on the income earned on the Trust Account). However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company
owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and 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,
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company
will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The Company will provide shareholders (the “Public
Shareholders”) of Public Shares, with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the
initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination or (ii)
without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed
Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be
entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per
Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay
its taxes).
The Company will have 24 months from the closing
of the IPO to complete the initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company is unable to complete
the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company 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 (less tax payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding
Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive
further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval
of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case
of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases
subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
6
The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed
to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial
Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder
vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance
or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100 %
of its Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or
(B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity,
(iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails
to complete the initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, although they will be entitled to liquidating
distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fail to complete the initial Business
Combination within the prescribed time frame, and (iv) vote any Founder Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or
after the IPO (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial Business Combination.
The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable
to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective
target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business
Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 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 $10.00 per
Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any
claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account
(whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of
the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to
reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy
its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the
Company cannot assure that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will
indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had approximately
$ 0.6 million in its operating bank account, and working capital of approximately $ 1.0 million. On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed
to provide the Company with loans in such amounts as may be required by the Company to fund the Company’s working capital requirements
up to an aggregate of $ 250,000 . In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s
Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide
the Company Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). As of September 30, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any
Working Capital Loans.
Based on the foregoing, management believes that
the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a
Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts
payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target
businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating
the Business Combination.
7
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the
Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily
determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly,
they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations,

of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows
for the periods presented.
The accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Prospectus, which contains the initial
audited financial statements and notes thereto for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) to February 3, 2021 as filed with the
SEC on March 5, 2021. The interim results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception)
through September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any
future interim periods.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS
Act”), and it may 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 its periodic reports
and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder
approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act
exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies
(that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company
can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies
but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means
that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging
growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison
of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth
company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting
standards used.

Use of Estimates
The preparation
of the financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates
requires management to exercise significant judgement. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition,
situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its
estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly
from those estimates .
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents
as of September 30, 2021.
Cash Held in Trust Account
At September 30, 2021, substantially all of the
assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which invest U.S. Treasury securities.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal
depository insurance coverage of $ 250,000 . The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company
is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and
liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying
amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments
to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic
815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued
at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are
classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument
could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Net Loss Per Ordinary Share
The Company
has two classes of shares, Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two
classes of shares. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the IPO, the Over-Allotment, the Private Placement
and the Over-Allotment Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 21,250,000 of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, or included the 1,125,000 Class
B shares that were subject to forfeiture at September 30, 2021, in
the calculation of diluted income per share, since their exercise is contingent upon the future consummation of a business combination
which cannot be assured . As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net
loss per ordinary share for the periods. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic
and diluted net loss per share for each class of ordinary shares.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial
Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements
of the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the IPO
that were directly related to the Public Offering. For the period ended September 30, 2021, Offering costs amounted to $ 15,271,938
and were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.
O rdinary Shares Subject
to Possible Redemption
All of the Class A ordinary share sold as part
of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s
liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain
amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s
guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control
of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The Class A ordinary
shares are subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99.
If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption
value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable,
if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur
and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes
changes in redemption value immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from
initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares resulted in charges against
additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.
Related Party Redemption Waiver Agreement
In September 2021, the Company entered into a
redemption waiver agreement with one of its anchor investors, Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP, whereby Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP agreed to waive
its redemption rights on 1,386,989 Class A ordinary shares (the “Non-Redemption Shares”) it held, and these ordinary shares
are classified as shareholders’ equity.
As of September 30, 2021,
the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method
of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply
to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances
are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold
and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in
a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing
authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company
recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2021, there
were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues
under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company’s management
does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman
Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing
requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other
Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”)
to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial
conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining
to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible
debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings
per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective
January 1, 2022 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1,
2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial
statement.
Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
On September 24, 2021, the Company sold 30,000,000
Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable
Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per
share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). Each Public Warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of the initial
Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or
liquidation.
One of the Anchor Investors, Kingstown 1740 Fund,
LP, an affiliate of the Sponsor, was allocated and purchased 2,900,000 Units sold in the IPO.
11
The underwriters had a 45-day option from the
Effective Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters partially
exercised the over-allotment option and purchased an additional 2,975,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating aggregate gross proceeds of
$ 29,750,000 , and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,535,000 Units (see Note 8).
The Company
paid an underwriting fee at the closing of the IPO of $ 4,000,000 . As of September 30, 2021, an additional fee of $ 10,500,000 (see Note
6) was deferred and will become payable upon the Company’s completion of an initial Business Combination. The deferred fee will
become payable to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. from the amounts held in the Trust Account.
The Company
paid an underwriting fee at the closing of the Over-Allotment of $ 595,000 . As a result of the Over-Allotment, an additional fee of $ 1,041,250
(see Note 6) was deferred and will become payable upon the Company’s completion of an initial Business Combination. The deferred
fee will become payable to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. from the amounts held in the Trust Account.
Warrants — As of
September 30, 2021, there were 15,000,000 Public Warrants and 6,250,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding. The Company evaluated
the terms of the warrants and determined the warrants meet the criteria in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, to be classified
in shareholders equity upon issuance. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price
of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed herein. The warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion
of its initial Business Combination, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination
at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to
the Public Warrants included in the units sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Warrants may not (including the Class A ordinary
shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders
until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable,
but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts
to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement for the IPO or a new registration statement covering the
registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company will use its
best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus
relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement
covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth (60 th ) business
day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration
statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on
a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above,
if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they
satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option,
require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9)
of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement,
and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky
laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Class A Ordinary Share
Equals or Exceeds $18.00
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company
may redeem the outstanding warrants:
● in whole and not in part;
● at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”); and
● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
12
Additionally, if the number of outstanding Class
A ordinary shares is increased by a share capitalization payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a sub-division of ordinary shares or
other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, sub-division or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary
shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights
offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a price
less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product of (i)
the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such
rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per Class
A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities
convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will
be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion
and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the ten (10) trading
day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Class A ordinary shares trade on the applicable exchange or
in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Company’s sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,250,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant,
for an aggregate purchase price of $ 6,250,000 . On October 29, 2021, simultaneously with the closing of the Over-Allotment, the Sponsor
purchased an additional 595,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating aggregate gross
proceeds of $ 595,000 (see Note 8).
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to
the Public Warrants included in the units sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Warrants may not (including the Class A ordinary
shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders
until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. If the Company does not complete the initial Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On February 3, 2021, the Sponsor paid $ 25,000 ,
or approximately $ 0.003 per share, to cover certain offering and formation costs in consideration for 7,187,500 Class B ordinary
shares, par value $ 0.0001 (the “Founder Shares”). On March 5, 2021, the Company effected a 1.2 to 1 share recapitalization
with respect to its Class B ordinary shares, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 8,625,000 Founder Shares. Up to 1,125,000
Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option
was exercised. On October 29, 2021, as a result of the partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor forfeited 381,250 of
these Founder Shares and the remaining Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture (see Note 8).
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and
directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion
thereof until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination, or (ii) the date
on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction after the initial Business Combination
that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities
or other property; except to certain permitted transferees and under certain circumstances (the “lock-up”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted for share
sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day
period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummates a transaction after
the initial Business Combination which results in the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash,
securities or other property, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.
13
In addition, subject to each Anchor Investor purchasing
100 % of the Units allocated to it, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor sold membership interests reflecting an allocation
of an aggregate of 1,625,000 Founder Shares to the Anchor Investors collectively. The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these
Founder Shares attributable to Anchor Investors to be approximately $ 9.68 million, or $ 5.96 per share. The excess of the fair value of
the Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Offering costs allocated
to the Public Shares and the Public Warrant was all charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the IPO.
Promissory Note—Related Party
On February 2, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan
the Company up to $ 300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. These loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and are
due at the earlier of December 31, 2021 or the closing of the IPO. As of September 24, 2021, the Company had borrowed $ 188,805 under the
promissory note, which was fully repaid on September 30, 2021. On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to provide the Company with loans
in such amounts as may be required by the Company to fund the Company's working capital requirements up to an aggregate of $ 250,000 , and
no amounts have been drawn upon this loan commitment.
Working Capital Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs
in connection with an intended Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers
and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”) on a non-interest
basis. If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that
the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to
repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $ 1,500,000
of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of
$ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. At
September 30, 2021, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
Administrative Service Fee
On September 21, 2021, the Company entered into
an Administrative Services Agreement with Kingstown Capital Management L.P., an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which it will also
pay a total of $ 15,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support services provided to members of the
Company’s management team. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or a liquidation, the Company will cease paying these
monthly fees. As of September 30, 2021, $ 4,500 has been accrued.
Forward Purchase Agreement
On September 21, 2021, the Company entered into
a forward purchase agreement pursuant to which certain affiliates of the Sponsor (“Kingstown”) agreed to purchase up to 5,000,000
forward purchase Class A ordinary shares (“Forward Purchase Shares”), for $ 10.00 per share, or an aggregate amount of up to
$ 50,000,000 , in a private placement that will close concurrently with the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination,
subject to approval by the Kingstown investment committee. The proceeds from the sale of these Forward Purchase Shares, together with
the amounts available to the Company from the Trust Account (after giving effect to any redemptions of Public Shares) and any other equity
or debt financing obtained by the Company in connection with the Business Combination, will be used to satisfy the cash requirements of
the Business Combination, including funding the purchase price and paying expenses and retaining specified amounts to be used by the post-Business
Combination company for working capital or other purposes. To the extent that the amounts available from the Trust Account and other financing
are sufficient for such cash requirements, Kingstown may purchase less than 5,000,000 Forward Purchase Shares. In addition, Kingstown’s
commitment under the forward purchase agreement will be subject to approval of its investment committee prior to the closing of the Company’s
initial Business Combination. Accordingly, if Kingstown’s investment committee does not give its approval, Kingstown will not be
obligated to purchase the Forward Purchase Shares. Further, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to reduce the amount of
Forward Purchase Shares that Kingstown may purchase pursuant to the forward purchase agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the forward purchase
agreement, Kingstown will have the option to assign its commitment to one of its affiliates and up to $ 5,000,000 to members of the Company’s
management team or Board of Directors. The Forward Purchase Shares will be identical to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units
sold in the IPO, except that they will be subject to transfer restrictions and registration rights.

Registration Rights
The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which
were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of the IPO, (ii) Forward Purchase Shares, (iii) Private Placement Warrants
which were issued in private placements simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and the Over-Allotment and the Class A ordinary
shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants and (iv) warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and
the Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any
of the Company’s securities held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of the
Company’s initial Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. Pursuant
to the registration rights agreement and assuming $1,500,000 of Working Capital Loans are converted into additional Private Placement
Warrants, the Company will be obligated to register up to 21,588,750 Class A ordinary shares and 8,345,000 Private Placement Warrants.
The number of Class A ordinary shares includes (i) 8,243,750 Class A ordinary shares to be issued upon conversion of the
Founder Shares, (ii) 5,000,000 Forward Purchase Shares, (iii) 6,845,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Placement
Warrants and (iv) 1,500,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants issuable upon conversion of Working
Capital Loans. The number of warrants includes 6,845,000 Private Placement Warrants and 1,500,000 additional Private Placement Warrants
issuable upon the conversion of Working Capital Loans. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding
short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration
rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company’s completion of its initial Business Combination.
The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day
option from the Effective Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any.
On September 24, 2021, the Company paid a cash
underwriting discount of 2.0 % per Unit, or $ 4,000,000 , excluding the proceeds from the purchase of an aggregate of 10,000,000 units by
certain of our anchor investors. The Company paid an underwriting fee at the closing of the Over-Allotment
of $ 595,000 .
Citigroup
Global Markets Inc. is entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 3.5 % of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $ 11,541,250 , held in
the Trust Account upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Note 7 — Shareholders’ Equity
Preference Shares
The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preference
shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. At September 30, 2021, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.
Class A Ordinary Shares
The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000
Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for
each share. At September 30, 2021, there were 1,386,989 Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding, excluding 28,613,011 Class
A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.
15
Class B Ordinary Shares
The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000
Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote
for each ordinary share. At September 30, 2021, there were 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Of the 8,625,000
Class B ordinary shares, an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares were subject to forfeiture to the Company for no consideration to the
extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part. On October 29, 2021, as a result of the
partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor forfeited 381,250 of these shares and the remaining Class B ordinary shares
are no longer subject to forfeiture (see Note 8).
Prior to the closing of the Company’s initial
Business Combination, only holders of the Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on continuing the Company in a jurisdiction
outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution required to amend the constitutional documents of the Company or to adopt
new constitutional documents of the Company, in each case, as a result of the Company approving a transfer by way of continuation in a
jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). On all other matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders, holders of Class A
ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class except as required by law. Unless specified
in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, or as required by applicable provisions of the Companies
Act or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Company’s ordinary shares that are voted is required
to approve any such matter voted on by its shareholders.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically
convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the initial Business Combination
on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the
like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities
are issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial Business Combination, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion
of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the total number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding after such conversion
(after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by Public Shareholders), including the total number of Class A ordinary
shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued,
by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination (including the Forward Purchase
Shares), excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares
issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers
or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans; provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than
one-for-one basis.
Note 8 — Subsequent Events
The Company
evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were
issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required
adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements .
On October 29, 2021, the underwriters partially
exercised the over-allotment option and purchased an additional 2,975,000 Units, generating an aggregate of gross proceeds of $ 29,750,000 ,
and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,535,000 Units. Simultaneously with the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment
option, the Sponsor purchased an additional 595,000 Private Placement Warrants, generating aggregate gross proceeds of $ 595,000 , and forfeited
381,250 Founder Shares for no consideration.

elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on January
27, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition,
share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).
Our sponsor is Inflection Point Holdings LLC,
a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for our initial public offering was
declared effective on September 21, 2021. On September 24, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering (the “IPO”) of
30,000,000 units , at $10.00 per unit (the “Units”) . Each Unit consists of the
Company’s Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value (the “Class A ordinary shares” or “Public Shares”)
and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”). The underwriters had a 45-day option from the Effective
Date to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters partially
exercised the over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment” and together with the IPO, the “Public Offering”) and
purchased an additional 2,975,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating additional gross proceeds of $29,750,000,
and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,525,000 Units.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,250,000 private placement warrants (“IPO Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00
per IPO Private Placement Warrants, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,250,000. On October 29, 2021, simultaneously with the sale of
the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor purchased an additional 595,000 private placement warrants (the “Over-Allotment Private Placement
Warrants” and together with the IPO Private Placement Warrants, the “Private Placement Warrants”), generating aggregate
gross proceeds to the Company of $595,000.
An aggregate of 12 qualified institutional buyers
(“Anchor Investors”) expressed an interest to purchase an aggregate of approximately $322.3 million of the Units sold in the
IPO. None of the Anchor Investors expressed an interest in purchasing more than 9.9% of the Units sold in the IPO. The Anchor Investors
were allocated and purchased a total of 29,540,000 Units or 98.5% of the Units sold in the IPO. One of the Anchor Investors, Kingstown
1740 Fund, LP, is an affiliate of the Sponsor, and was allocated and purchased 2,900,000 Units sold in the IPO.
In addition, subject to each Anchor Investor purchasing
100% of the Units allocated to it, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor sold membership interests reflecting an allocation
of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) to each Anchor Investor, or an aggregate of
1,625,000 Founder Shares to all Anchor Investors. The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these Founder Shares attributable
to Anchor Investors to be approximately $9.68 million, or $5.96 per share. The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares was determined
to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares and the Public
Warrants was all charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the IPO.
As of September 30, 2021, transaction costs amounted
to $15,271,938 consisting of $4,000,000 of underwriting commissions, $10,500,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, and $771,938 of
other offering costs, and was all charged to shareholders’ equity. In connection with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units on October
29, 2021, the Company incurred additional transactions costs amounting to $1,636,250 consisting of $595,000 of underwriting commissions
and $1,041,250 of deferred underwriting commissions.
17
Following the closing of the IPO on September
24, 2021, $300,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement
Warrants was deposited into a trust account (the “Trust Account”). Following the closing of the Over-Allotment on October
29, 2021, an additional $29,750,000 ($10.00 per Over-Allotment Unit) from the net proceeds from the sale of the Over-Allotment Units in
the Over-Allotment and the sale of the Over-Allotment Private Placement Units was deposited into the Trust Account. The proceeds deposited
in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under
the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on
the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay taxes, if any, the proceeds from the Public Offering and
the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of initial
Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company’s Public
Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial
Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within
24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial
Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors,
if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders.
The Company’s management has broad discretion
with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants although
substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination (less deferred underwriting
commissions). The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value
equal to at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust and
taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction
company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and 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, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance
that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The Company will have 24 months from the closing
of the IPO to complete the initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company is unable to complete
the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company 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 (less tax payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding
Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive
further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval
of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case
of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases
subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately
$0.6 million in cash and working capital of $1.0 million.
On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to provide
us with loans in such amounts as may be required by us to fund the our working capital requirements up to an aggregate of $250,000 .
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our
Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide Working Capital Loans to us. As of September 30,
2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.
18
Based on the foregoing, management believes that
the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a
Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts
payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target
businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating
the Business Combination.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s
financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as
of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.
Results of Operations
As of September 30,
2021, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021 relates
to our formation and the Initial Public Offering and, subsequent to the closing of the IPO, identifying a target company for a
Business Combination . We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues
to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial
Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash
and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO and Over-Allotment. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result
of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the period from January 27, 2021 (inception)
to September 30, 2021, we had net loss of $41,425, which consisted of formation and operating costs amounting to $41,625 offset by interest
income earned on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account amounting to $200.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021,
we had a net loss of $21,537 which consisted of formation and operating costs amounting to $21,737 offset by interest income earned on
cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account amounting to $200.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt obligations,
capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities.
Administrative Services Agreement
Commencing on September 22, 2021, we agreed to
pay Kingstown Capital Management L.P., an affiliate of the Sponsor, $15,000 per month for office
space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support services. Upon the earlier of the completion of the initial Business
Combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying such monthly fees.
Registration Rights
The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which
were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of the IPO, (ii) Forward Purchase Shares, (iii) Private Placement Warrants
which were issued in private placements simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and the Over-Allotment and the Class A ordinary
shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants and (iv) warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and
the Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants will have registration rights to require us to register a sale of any of our
securities held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination
pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement and
assuming $1,500,000 of working capital loans are converted into additional Private Placement Warrants, we will be obligated to register
up to 21,588,750 Class A ordinary shares and 8,345,000 Private Placement Warrants. The number of Class A ordinary shares includes
(i) 8,243,750 Class A ordinary shares to be issued upon conversion of the Founder Shares, (ii) 5,000,000 Forward Purchase Shares,
(iii) 6,845,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants and (iv) 1,500,000 Class A ordinary shares
underlying the Private Placement Warrants issuable upon conversion of working capital loans. The number of warrants includes 6,845,000
Private Placement Warrants and 1,500,000 additional Private Placement Warrants issuable upon the conversion of working capital loans.
The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities.
In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent
to our completion of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration
statements.
19
Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option
from the date of IPO prospectus to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any. On October 29, 2021,
the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option and purchased 2,975,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating an aggregate of
gross proceeds of $29,750,000, and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,535,000 Units.
The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting
discount of 2.0% per Unit, or $4,595,000, excluding the proceeds from the purchase of an aggregate of 10,000,000 units by certain of our
anchor investors, $4,000,000 of which was payable upon the closing of the IPO and $595,000 was payable upon closing of the Over-Allotment.
Additionally, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. will be entitled to a deferred underwriting discount
of 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $11,541,250 upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.
The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company
completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
Offering Costs
We comply
with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consists of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred
through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial
instruments to be issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Upon closing of the
IPO on September 24, 2021, transaction costs amounted to $15,271,938 consisting of $4,000,000 of underwriting commissions, $10,500,000
of deferred underwriting commissions, and $771,938 of other offering costs, and was all charged to shareholders’ equity.
Class A Ordinary Share Subject to Possible
Redemption
All of the Class A ordinary
share sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares
in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination
and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. In accordance
with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions
not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
20
The Class A ordinary
shares are subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99.
If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption
value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable,
if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur
and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes
changes in redemption value immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from
initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable ordinary share resulted in charges against
additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.
Related Party Redemption Waiver Agreement
In September 2021, the Company entered into a
redemption waiver agreement with one of its anchor investors, Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP, whereby Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP agreed to waive
its redemption rights on 1,386,989 Class A ordinary shares it holds, and these ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.
Net Loss Per Ordinary Share
The Company
has two classes of shares, Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two
classes of shares. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Public Offering or the Private Placement Warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 21,250,000 of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income per share,
since their exercise is contingent upon future events . Nor has the Company included
the 1,125,000 Class B shares that were subject to forfeiture at September 30, 2021 in calculation of diluted income per shares. As a result, diluted net loss per
ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for the periods.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2021, we did not have any
off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation had a material
impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the period presented.
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS
Act”), and may 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 its periodic reports
and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder
approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act
exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies
(that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company
can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies
but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when
a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth
company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison
of our financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which
has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards
used.
21
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined
by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our principal executive officers and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation
of our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officers and principal financial officer concluded that during
the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that
has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
22
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Factors that could cause our actual results to
differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report include the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors”
in our prospectus dated September 21, 2021 filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021 that was used in connection with our Public Offering
(the “IPO Prospectus”). As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed
in the IPO Prospectus.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Use of Proceeds
In February 2021, our sponsor paid $25,000, or
approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of our offering costs in exchange for 7,187,500 Founder Shares. Subsequently on March
5, 2021, we effected a 1.2 to 1 share recapitalization with respect to our Class B ordinary shares, as a result of which our sponsor held
8,625,000 Founder Shares. The number of Founder Shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of our
Public Offering would be a maximum of 34,500,000 Units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full and therefore
that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares after the Public Offering. Up to 1,125,000 of these shares were
subject to surrender for no consideration depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment was exercised. On October
29, 2021, as a result of the partial exercise of the over-allotment option, our sponsor forfeited 381,250 Founder Shares and the remaining
Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture. Such securities were issued in connection with our organization pursuant to the exemption
from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect
to such sales.
On September 24, 2021, we consummated the IPO
of 30,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, and one-half of one Public Warrant, with each
whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The underwriters
had a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters
partially exercised the over-allotment option and purchased 2,975,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating additional gross proceeds of $29,750,000,
and forfeited their option to purchase the remaining 1,535,000 Units. The securities in the Public Offering were registered under the
Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-253963). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on September
21, 2021.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we
consummated the sale of 6,250,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating
total gross proceeds of $6,250,000. On October 29, 2021, simultaneously with the closing of the Over-Allotment, the Sponsor purchased
an additional 595,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating aggregate gross proceeds
of $595,000. Such securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.
We paid a total of $16,908,188 in
underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs, consisting of $4,595,000 of underwriting commissions, $11,541,250 of deferred underwriting
commissions, and $771,938 of other offering costs related to the IPO.
There has been no material change in the planned
use of the proceeds from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants as is described in the IPO Prospectus.
23
In connection with the consummation of the Public
Offering, we entered into a forward purchase agreement with Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP and Kingfishers L.P., affiliates of Kingstown Capital
Partners, LLC, collectively “Kingstown” and our sponsor, pursuant to which Kingstown agreed that it will purchase from us
up to 5,000,000 forward purchase Class A ordinary shares (“Forward Purchase Shares”), for $10.00 per share, or an aggregate
amount of up to $50,000,000, in a private placement that will close concurrently with the closing of our initial Business Combination.
The proceeds from the sale of these Forward Purchase Shares, together with the amounts available to us from the Trust Account (after giving
effect to any redemptions of Public Shares) and any other equity or debt financing obtained by us in connection with the Business Combination,
will be used to satisfy the cash requirements of the Business Combination, including funding the purchase price and paying expenses and
retaining specified amounts to be used by the post-business combination company for working capital or other purposes. To the extent
that the amounts available from the Trust Account and other financing are sufficient for such cash requirements, Kingstown may purchase
less than 5,000,000 Forward Purchase Shares. In addition, Kingstown’s commitment under the forward purchase agreement will be subject
to approval of its investment committee prior to the closing of our initial Business Combination. Accordingly, if Kingstown’s investment
committee does not give its approval, Kingstown will not be obligated to purchase the Forward Purchase Shares. Further, we have the right,
in our sole discretion, to reduce the amount of Forward Purchase Shares that Kingstown may purchase pursuant to the forward purchase agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the forward purchase agreement, Kingstown will have the option to assign its commitment to one of its affiliates
and up to $5,000,000 to members of our management team or board of directors. The Forward Purchase Shares will be identical to the Class
A ordinary shares included in the Units sold in the Public Offering, except that they will be subject to transfer restrictions and registration
rights.
