Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet
of Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, changes
in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, and the related
notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the
Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination and the Company’s cash and working capital
as of December 31, 2021 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to
be one year from the issuance date of the financial statements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our
audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”)
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the
standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER
31, 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 December 31, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 27, 2021 (inception) through
December 31, 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 1,525,000
Units.
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 .
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. Upon the completion of the IPO, offering costs allocated (1) to the Public Shares not subject to possible redemption
and the Public Warrants were charged to additional paid-in capital; (2) to the Public Shares subject to redemption were charged to temporary
equity; and (3) to the over-allotment option were charged to expense.
As
of December 31, 2021, transaction costs amounted to $ 26,658,313 consisting of $ 4,595,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 11,541,250 of
deferred underwriting commissions, $ 9,680,125 excess fair value of founder shares (see Note 5), and $ 841,938 of other offering costs,
with $ 23,439 included in the statement of operations as an allocation for the over-allotment option, $ 24,538,134 included in temporary
equity as an allocation for the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, and $ 2,096,740 included in additional paid-in capital
as an allocation for the Class A ordinary shares not subject to redemption, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants.
F- 7
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 Warrants 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.
F- 8
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.
Going
Concern
As
of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $ 0.36 million in its operating bank account, and working capital of approximately
$ 0.62 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
December 31, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.
Based
on the foregoing, it is possible that the $ 0.36 million in cash held outside the trust account might not be sufficient to allow the Company
to operate for at least 12 months from the issuance of these financial statements, assuming that a business combination is not consummated
during that time. Until consummation of its business combination, 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.
The
Company can raise additional capital through Working Capital Loans from the Sponsor, certain of the Company’s officers and directors,
or through loans from third parties. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures
to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business
plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially
acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of these financial statements.
F- 9
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.
Note
2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“ US GAAP ”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”).
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results
of operations, and cash flows.
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 .
F- 10
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 December 31, 2021.
Marketable
Securities Held in Trust Account
At
December 31, 2021, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury
securities.

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.
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. See Note 8 for further discussion of the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities.
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.
For
issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component
of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for
equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance
sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the
statements of operations. The Company’s has analyzed the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants and determined they meet
all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815 (see Note 3 and 4).
The
Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option at the Initial Public Offering date to purchase up to 4,500,000 additional
Units to cover over-allotments. The over-allotment option was evaluated under ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”
and is considered to be a freestanding financial instrument and meets the definition of a liability under ASC 480. The determination
was based on the understanding that the over-allotment option may be exercised subsequent to the transfer of the securities from the
underwriters to the investors. The over-allotment option liability is measured at fair value at inception and subsequently until it is
exercised or expires, with changes in fair value presented in the statement of operations (See Note 9).
F- 11
Net
Loss Per Ordinary Share
We
comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Our statement of operations include
a presentation of income per share for ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of
income per share. The remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net loss per ordinary share
as the redemption value approximates fair value. 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 23,332,500 of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares 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 December 31, 2021, Offering costs amounted to $ 26,658,313 , consisting of $ 4,595,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 11,541,250 of deferred underwriting commissions, $ 9,680,125 of excess fair value of founder shares (see Note 5), and $ 841,938 of other offering costs, with $ 23,439 included in the statement of operations as an allocation for the over-allotment option, $ 24,538,134 included in temporary equity as an allocation for the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, and $ 2,096,740 included in additional paid-in capital as an allocation for the Class A ordinary shares not subject to redemption, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants .
O rdinary
Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
31,588,011
shares of the Class A ordinary shares 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 remeasurement 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.
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.

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 December 31, 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 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 for emerging growth
companies 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.
F- 13
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.
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 1,525,000 Units (see
Note 8).
The
Company paid an underwriting fee at the closing of the IPO of $ 4,000,000 . As of December 31, 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 December 31, 2021, there were 16,487,500 Public Warrants and 6,845,000 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.
F- 14
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.
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 .
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.

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.
F- 15
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. Upon the completion of the IPO, offering costs allocated (1) to the Public Shares not subject to possible
redemption and the Public Warrants were charged to additional paid-in capital; (2) to the Public Shares subject to redemption were charged
to temporary equity; and (3) to the over-allotment liability were charged to expense.
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.
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 by 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 December 31, 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. For the period from January 27, 2021 (date of inception) through December
31, 2021, the Company recorded $ 48,000 of administrative service fees under the agreement, none of which was due or payable as of December
31, 2021.
Professional
Service Agreement
The
Company reimburses its Sponsor for services provided by one of the Sponsor’s employees who serve as the Company’s Chief of
Staff (“COS”). The COS receives $ 12,500 per month for services rendered, commencing September 25, 2021, through the closing
of our initial business combination. For the period from January 27, 2021 (date of inception) through December 31, 2021, the Company
recorded $ 40,000 of compensation for services provided. As of December 31, 2021, there was no balance due to the COS.
Forward
Purchase Agreement
On
September 21, 2021, the Company entered into a forward purchase agreement (“FPA”)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 FPA 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 FPA. Pursuant to the terms of the FPA, 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.
The
Company evaluated the FPA under ASC 480 and ASC 815-40 to determine the appropriate accounting treatment. The FPA does not meet the criteria
to be classified as a liability under ASC 480. In addition, there is no net cash settlement feature and settlement will be in gross physical
delivery of Class A ordinary shares; therefore, the FPA should be classified as equity. However, as the issuance of Forward Purchase
Shares is contingent on several factors, including the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, approval by the Kingstown board
of directors, and the Company’s discretion, the Company will record the FPA when it becomes probable that the triggering events
will occur.

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

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. The Company evaluated the registration rights agreement in accordance with the guidance in ASC 825-20 “Registration
Payment Arrangements,”, ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” and ASC 450 “Contingencies.”
The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages, penalty payment, or other cash settlement provisions resulting
from delays in registering the Company’s securities. As such, there are no accounting implications that arise due to the registration
rights.

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 December 31, 2021, there were 1,386,989 Class A ordinary shares issued

ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share. At December 31, 2021, there were 8,243,750 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.
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 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each
reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.
The
fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would
have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company
seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable
inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities).
F- 18
The
following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used
in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1:
Quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions
for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:
Observable inputs other
than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities
and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs
based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The
following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December
31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The
over-allotment option was accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC-480 and was presented within liabilities on the accompanying
balance sheet. The over-allotment option was measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis until it was exercised or expired,
with changes in fair value presented in the statement of operations. On October 29, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised their
over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,975,000 Units at $ 10.00 per Unit and forfeited the remaining over-allotment
option. The over-allotment liability was eliminated upon the expiration of the unexercised option on November 8, 2021. The over-allotment
option liability was valued using a Black Scholes Model.
