Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
(a) Market Information
Our Units began trading on Nasdaq on August 10, 2021. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. On September 27, 2021, we announced that holders of our Units could elect to separately trade the Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants included in the Units on September 30, 2021. Any Units not separated continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol "AHPAU." Any underlying Class A ordinary shares and warrants that were separated trade on Nasdaq under the symbols "AHPA" and "AHPAW," respectively. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in our final prospectus dated August 9, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on August 11, 2021. Only whole warrants may be exercised for Class A ordinary shares and will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of our initial Business Combination or 12 months after the IPO Closing Date. Our warrants expire five years after the completion of our initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation as described in "Item 1. Business."
(b) Holders
At March 25, 2022, there was one holder of record of our Units, one holder of record of our separately traded Class A ordinary shares, two holders of record of our warrants and four holders of record of our Class B ordinary shares.
(c) Dividends
We have not paid any cash dividends on our Class A ordinary shares to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of our initial Business Combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to our initial Business Combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring stock dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness in connection with our initial Business Combination, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Warrants sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial Business Combination (except pursuant to limited exceptions to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the private placement warrants, as described in the registration statement related to the Public Offering in the section titled “Principal Shareholders—Transfers of Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants”). The private placement warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units being sold in this offering.

Use of Proceeds
On August 12, 2021, we consummated our Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Our Public Offering did not terminate before all of the securities registered in our registration statement were sold. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC acted as underwriter for the offering. The securities sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-257177). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on August 9, 2021. Through December 31, 2021, we incurred $13,662,256 for costs and expenses related to the Public Offering. Additionally, at the closing of the Public Offering, we paid a total of $4,600,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer the payment of $8,050,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, which amount will be payable upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, if consummated. Prior to the closing of the Public Offering, our Sponsor agreed to loan us up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Public Offering. These loans were repaid upon completion of the Public Offering out of the $600,000 of Public Offering proceeds that were allocated for the payment of offering expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions. Other than such loans, no payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our ordinary shares or to their associates, or to our affiliates. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from the Public Offering as described in our final prospectus, dated August 9, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 11, 2021.
After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions (excluding the deferred portion of $8,050,000 in underwriting commissions, which amount will be payable upon consummation of the initial Business Combination, if consummated) and the estimated offering expenses, the total net proceeds from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were $237,150,000, of which $235,750,000 (or $10.25 per share sold in the Public Offering) was placed in the trust account.
