−Removed: Disclosure controls are procedures
−Removed: that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act,
−Removed: such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
−Removed: Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,

−Removed: Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer (our
−Removed: “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020, pursuant to
−Removed: Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act.
−Removed: Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of December 31, 2020,
−Removed: our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
−Removed: We do not expect that our
−Removed: disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud.
−Removed: Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter
−Removed: how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls
−Removed: and procedures are met.
−Removed: Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,
−Removed: and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs.
−Removed: Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures,
−Removed: no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies
−Removed: and instances of fraud, if any.
−Removed: The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the

+Added: as of December 31, 2021, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act.
+Added: Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers
+Added: concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, solely due to the events that led to the Company's restatement of its financial statements to reclassify the Company's Public Warrants, as well as the restatement for the temporary equity subject to possible redemption, as described in the Explanatory Note to this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
+Added: do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud.
+Added: Disclosure controls and
+Added: procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
+Added: disclosure controls and procedures are met.
+Added: Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there

+Added: The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
+Added: assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
+Added: goals under all potential future conditions.
+Added: control over financial reporting did not result in the proper classification of our warrants.
+Added: Since their issuance on February 11, 2021,
+Added: our warrants have been accounted for as liabilities within our balance sheet.
+Added: On April 12, 2021, the SEC Staff issued the SEC Staff
+Added: Statement in which the SEC Staff expressed its view that certain terms and conditions common to SPAC warrants may require the Public Warrants
+Added: to be classified as equity on the SPAC’s balance sheet as opposed to liabilities.
+Added: After discussion and evaluation, taking into consideration
+Added: the SEC Staff Statement, including with our independent auditors, we have concluded that our Private warrants should be presented as liabilities
+Added: with subsequent fair value remeasurement.
+Added: previously disclosed, the Company concluded it should restate its financial statements to classify all ordinary shares subject to
+Added: possible redemption in temporary equity.
+Added: In accordance with the SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments,
+Added: ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480), paragraph 10-S99, redemption provisions not solely
+Added: within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
+Added: Company had previously classified a portion of its ordinary shares in permanent equity.
+Added: Although the Company did not specify a
+Added: maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that currently, the Company will not redeem its public shares in an amount that
+Added: would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.
+Added: The Company considered that the threshold would not change the
+Added: nature of the underlying shares as redeemable and thus would be required to be disclosed outside equity.
+Added: As a result, the Company
+Added: restated its previously filed financial statements to classify ordinary shares subject to redemption as temporary equity and to
+Added: recognize accretion from the initial book value to redemption value at the time of its IPO and in accordance
+Added: with ASC 480.
+Added: The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares of ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional
+Added: paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.
+Added: As a result, management
+Added: identified these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for warrants and ordinary
+Added: shares subject to possible redemption.
+Added: remediate these material weaknesses, we developed a remediation plan with assistance from our accounting advisors and have dedicated
+Added: significant resources and efforts to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system of evaluating
+Added: and implementing the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements.
+Added: Our plans at this time include
+Added: providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel
+Added: and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications.
+Added: The elements of our remediation
+Added: plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended
+Added: Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
+Added: required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-
+Added: d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
+Added: internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance
+Added: regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance
+Added: Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
+Added: to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
+Added: assets of our company,
+Added: reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
+Added: GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors,
+Added: reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
+Added: could have a material effect on the financial statements.
+Added: of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial
+Added: Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
+Added: because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
+Added: Management assessed
+Added: the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2021.
+Added: In making these assessments, management used
+Added: the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated
+Added: Framework (2013).
+Added: In connection with this report and based on our assessments and those criteria, our management determined that

−Removed: Under our code of ethics,
−Removed: conflict of interest situations will include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee
−Removed: of indebtedness) involving the company.
−Removed: A form of the code of ethics was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for our IPO
−Removed: as filed with the SEC.
−Removed: In addition, our audit committee,
−Removed: pursuant to its written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that we enter

−Removed: the date of this prospectus, we have not completed an assessment, nor have our auditors tested our systems, of internal controls.
−Removed: expect to assess the internal controls of our target business or businesses prior to the completion of our initial business combination
−Removed: and, if necessary, to implement and test additional controls as we may determine are necessary in order to state that we maintain an
−Removed: effective system of internal controls.
−Removed: A target business may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
−Removed: regarding the adequacy of internal controls.
−Removed: Target businesses we may consider for a business combination may have internal controls
−Removed: that need improvement in areas such as:
−Removed: staffing for financial, accounting and external reporting areas,
−Removed: including segregation of duties;
−Removed: reconciliation of accounts;
−Removed: proper recording of expenses and liabilities in the period to which they relate;
−Removed: evidence of internal review and approval of accounting transactions;
−Removed: documentation of processes, assumptions and conclusions underlying significant
−Removed: documentation of accounting policies and procedures.
−Removed: Because it will take time,
−Removed: management involvement and perhaps outside resources to determine what internal control improvements are necessary for us to meet regulatory
−Removed: requirements and market expectations for our operation of a target business, we may incur significant expense in meeting our public reporting
−Removed: responsibilities, particularly in the areas of designing, enhancing, or remediating internal and disclosure controls.
−Removed: Doing so effectively
−Removed: may also take longer than we expect, thus increasing our exposure to financial fraud or erroneous financing reporting.
−Removed: Once our management’s
−Removed: report on internal controls is complete, we will retain our independent auditors to audit and render an opinion on such report when required
−Removed: by Section 404.
−Removed: The independent auditors may identify additional issues concerning a target business’s internal controls while
−Removed: performing their audit of internal control over financial reporting.

−Removed: NOTE 2 –
−Removed: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
−Removed: Basis of presentation
−Removed: The accompanying financial statements are presented
−Removed: Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and
−Removed: pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
−Removed: Emerging Growth Company
−Removed: The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
−Removed: as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”),
−Removed: and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that
−Removed: are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements
−Removed: of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports
−Removed: and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder
−Removed: approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
−Removed: VENUS ACQUISITION CORPORATION
−Removed: NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts
−Removed: emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that
−Removed: is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
−Removed: under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards.
−Removed: The JOBS Act provides that a company
−Removed: can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies
−Removed: but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
−Removed: The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means
−Removed: that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an
−Removed: emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
−Removed: may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company
−Removed: nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential
−Removed: differences in accounting standards used.
−Removed: Use of Estimates
−Removed: The preparation of financial statements in conformity
−Removed: with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
−Removed: of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
−Removed: the reporting period.
−Removed: Making estimates requires management to exercise
−Removed: significant judgment.
−Removed: It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances
−Removed: that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near
−Removed: term due to one or more future confirming events.
−Removed: Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
−Removed: The Company considers all short-term investments
−Removed: with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
−Removed: The Company did not have any cash equivalents
−Removed: as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
−Removed: Deferred Offering Costs
−Removed: Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting,
−Removed: legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Proposed Offering and that
−Removed: will be charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering.

+Added: per Public Share, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one month extension.
+Added: Any funds which may be provided
+Added: to extend the time frame will be in the form of a loan to us from our sponsor.
+Added: For the extensions that we have made, the loans are interest free and will not be repaid unless and until we
+Added: complete a business combination.
+Added: For the extensions that may be made in the future, the final and definitive terms of the loan in connection
+Added: with any such loans have not yet been negotiated, but any such loan would be interest free and not repaid unless and until we complete

+Added: including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $50,000), divided by the number of
+Added: then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including
+Added: the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible
+Added: following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed

+Added: indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
+Added: Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
+Added: In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against
+Added: a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.
+Added: The Company will seek
+Added: to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have
+Added: all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements
+Added: with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
+Added: and going concern

+Added: These consolidated financial statements do not include
+Added: any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should

+Added: 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
+Added: of presentation
+Added: accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S.
+Added: Dollars in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
+Added: in the United States of America (“U.S.
+Added: GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
+Added: In the opinion of management,
+Added: all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
+Added: position, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows.
+Added: of Consolidation
+Added: consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.
+Added: All significant intercompany
+Added: transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.
+Added: are those entities in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power;
+Added: or has the power to
+Added: govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a
+Added: majority of votes at the meeting of directors.
+Added: accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the Company and each of the following entities:
+Added: Schedule of Subsidiary
+Added: Merger Sub Corp.
+Added: Cayman Islands company Incorporated on May 25, 2021
+Added: Owned by Venus
+Added: growth company
+Added: Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our
+Added: Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements
+Added: that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required
+Added: to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding
+Added: executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory
+Added: vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
+Added: Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting
+Added: standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do
+Added: not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting
+Added: The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements
+Added: that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
+Added: The Company has elected not to opt out of
+Added: such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public
+Added: or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies
+Added: adopt the new or revised standard.
+Added: This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public
+Added: company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition
+Added: period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
+Added: preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
+Added: the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
+Added: statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
+Added: estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment.
+Added: It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
+Added: a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered
+Added: in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events.
+Added: Accordingly, the actual results
+Added: could differ significantly from those estimates.
+Added: and cash equivalents
+Added: Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

+Added: for available-for-sale securities are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).
+Added: The Company evaluates its investments to assess
+Added: whether those with unrealized loss positions are other than temporarily impaired.
+Added: Impairments are considered other than temporary if
+Added: they are related to deterioration in credit risk or if it is likely the Company will sell the securities before the recovery of the cost
+Added: Realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other than temporary are determined based on the specific identification
+Added: method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations and comprehensive (income) loss.
+Added: Company accounts for warrants (Public Warrants or Private Warrants) as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based
+Added: on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board
+Added: (“FASB”) ASC 480 and ASC 815, “ Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”).
+Added: The assessment considers
+Added: whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480,
+Added: and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed
+Added: to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement”
+Added: in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification.
+Added: This assessment, which requires
+Added: the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while
+Added: the warrants are outstanding.
+Added: issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component
+Added: of equity at the time of issuance.
+Added: For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants
+Added: are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.
+Added: Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the consolidated statements of operations.
+Added: has elected to account for its Public Warrants as equity and the Private Warrants as liabilities.
+Added: shares subject to possible redemption
+Added: Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480.
+Added: Ordinary share subject
+Added: to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value.
+Added: Conditionally redeemable ordinary
+Added: shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption
+Added: upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity.
+Added: times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.
+Added: As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s ordinary shares
+Added: feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control.
+Added: 4,600,000 and 0 ordinary shares subject
+Added: to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s consolidated
+Added: balance sheets.
+Added: The Company has made a policy election in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A
+Added: and recognizes changes in redemption value in accumulated deficit immediately as if the end of the first reporting period after the Initial
+Added: Public Offering was the redemption date.
+Added: Redemption value is remeasured to reflect the interest earned on the Trust Account balance that
+Added: are available for distribution to redeeming shareholders.
+Added: Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A –
+Added: “ Expenses of Offering ”.
+Added: Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through
+Added: the balance sheet date that are related to the Public Offering and that were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion
+Added: of the Public Offering.
+Added: value of financial instruments
+Added: Topic 820 “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, the methods used to
+Added: measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.
+Added: Fair value is the price that would be received to sell
+Added: an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date.
+Added: In determining
+Added: fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure
+Added: ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing
+Added: the asset or liability.
+Added: These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs.
+Added: Observable inputs are those that buyer
+Added: and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.
+Added: inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability
+Added: developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
+Added: fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
+Added: Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
+Added: Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied.
+Added: Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
+Added: Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.
+Added: Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
+Added: fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “ Fair
+Added: Value Measurements and Disclosures ,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheet.
+Added: values of cash and cash equivalents, and other current assets, accrued expenses, due to sponsor are estimated to approximate the carrying
+Added: values as of December 31, 2021 due to the short maturities of such instruments.
+Added: See Note 9 for the disclosure of the Company’s
+Added: assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
+Added: ● Concentration
+Added: of credit risk
+Added: instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and trust accounts in a financial institution
+Added: which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000.
+Added: The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts
+Added: and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
+Added: Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ,” (“ASC 740”)
+Added: which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.
+Added: Deferred income tax assets and
+Added: liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in
+Added: future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected
+Added: to affect taxable income.
+Added: Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected
+Added: to be realized.
+Added: 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions
+Added: taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
+Added: For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be
+Added: sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.
+Added: The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s
+Added: major tax jurisdiction.
+Added: The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income
+Added: There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.
+Added: The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation
+Added: from its position.
+Added: Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes.
+Added: These potential examinations
+Added: may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with
+Added: foreign tax laws.
+Added: Company’s tax provision is zero and it has no deferred tax assets.
+Added: The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands
+Added: Company, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States.
+Added: loss per share
+Added: Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “ Earnings per Share” .
+Added: In order to determine
+Added: the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed
+Added: income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed income (loss)
+Added: is calculated using the total net loss less any dividends paid.
+Added: The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based
+Added: on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares.
+Added: Any remeasurement of
+Added: the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public
+Added: stockholders.
+Added: As of December 31, 2021, the Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering
+Added: to purchase an aggregate of 2,412,500 shares in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants is
+Added: contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have
+Added: any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary share and then share
+Added: in the earnings of the Company.
+Added: As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented.
+Added: net loss per share presented in the statement of operations is based on the following:
+Added: Net loss per share presented in
+Added: the statement of operations
+Added: $ ( 812,413 )

+Added: shall mean the average reported last sale price of the ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the day prior to the date of
+Added: For example, if a holder held 300 warrants to purchase 150 shares and the Fair Market Value on the date prior to exercise was
+Added: $15.00, that holder would receive 35 shares without the payment of any additional cash consideration.
+Added: If an exemption from registration
+Added: is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.
+Added: The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the consummation of a Business Combination or (b) 12
+Added: months from the effective date of the registration statement relating to the IPO.
+Added: The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City
+Added: time, on the fifth anniversary of our completion of an initial business combination, or earlier upon redemption.
+Added: Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (including any outstanding warrants issued upon exercise of the unit purchase option issued
+Added: to Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc.,), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:
+Added: any time while the Public Warrants are exercisable,
+Added: not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder,
+Added: and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within
+Added: a 30 trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the notice of redemption to Public Warrant holders, and
+Added: and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying such
+Added: warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter
+Added: until the date of redemption.
+Added: the foregoing conditions are satisfied and the Company would issue a notice of redemption, each warrant holder can exercise his, her
+Added: or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date.
+Added: However, the price of the ordinary shares may fall below the $18.00 trigger price
+Added: as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price per full share after the redemption notice is issued and not limit our ability to complete
+Added: the redemption.
+Added: redemption criteria for the warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium
+Added: to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the warrant exercise
+Added: price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below
+Added: the exercise price of the warrants.
+Added: the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish
+Added: to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering
+Added: the whole warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary
+Added: shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “Fair Market Value”
+Added: (defined below) by (y) the Fair Market Value.
+Added: The “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of
+Added: the ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent
+Added: to the holders of warrants.
+Added: Whether the Company will exercise our option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless
+Added: basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of our ordinary shares at the time the warrants are called for redemption,
+Added: the Company’s cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.
+Added: 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
+Added: fair value of the Company’s consolidated financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that
+Added: the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities
+Added: in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
+Added: In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets
+Added: and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize
+Added: the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities).
+Added: The following
+Added: fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order
+Added: to value the assets and liabilities:
+Added: prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
+Added: An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions
+Added: for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
+Added: inputs other than Level 1 inputs.
+Added: Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities
+Added: and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
+Added: inputs based on the assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
+Added: following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring
+Added: basis as of December 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such
+Added: Schedule of Company's assets that are measured at fair
+Added: value on a recurring basis
+Added: Quoted Prices In
+Added: Active Markets
+Added: Significant Other
+Added: Observable Inputs
+Added: Significant Other
+Added: Unobservable Inputs
+Added: Treasury Securities held in Trust Account*
+Added: Warrant liabilities
+Added: in cash and investments held in trust account on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
+Added: private warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the consolidated
+Added: balance sheets.
+Added: Company determined the initial fair value for the private warrants at $380,000 on February 11, 2021, the date of the Company’s
+Added: Initial Public Offering, using a Black-Scholes model.
+Added: The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Private Units, first
+Added: to the private warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds recorded as ordinary
+Added: shares subject to possible redemption, and ordinary shares based on their relative fair values recorded at the initial measurement date.
+Added: The warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs.
+Added: key inputs into the binomial model and Black-Scholes model were as follows at their measurement dates:
+Added: Schedule of binomial model and Black-Scholes model
+Added: (Initial measurement)
+Added: Risk-free interest rate
+Added: Exercise price
+Added: of December 31, 2021, the aggregate value of the Private Warrants was $ 0.41 million.
+Added: The change in fair value from February 11, 2021
+Added: to December 31, 2021 was approximately $ 30,000 .
+Added: the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair
+Added: value requires more judgment.
+Added: Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower
+Added: than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed.
+Added: Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised
+Added: by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.
+Added: Level 3 financial liabilities consist of
+Added: the Private Warrant liability for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires
+Added: significant judgment or estimation.
+Added: Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed
+Added: each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.
