TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Corporate
History and Nature of Operations
Petra
Acquisition, Inc. (the “Company” or “Petra”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 20, 2019. The Company was
formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not
limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging
growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As
of September 30, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from November 20, 2019 (Inception) through
September 30, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), and search
for an acquisition target, which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion
of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds
derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The
registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering became effective on October 7, 2020. On October 13, 2020, the
Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 7,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common
stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 70,000,000 , which
is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 3,150,000 warrants (the “Private Placement
Warrants”) at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Petra Investment Holdings, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), for gross proceeds of $ 3,150,000 . The funds for the Private Placement Warrants
had been placed in our Trust account in anticipation of the exercise prior to September 30, 2020.
Transaction
costs amounted to $ 4,682,736 , consisting of $ 4,366,980 of underwriting discounts ($ 2,911,260 of which payment is deferred) and $ 315,846 of
professional fees, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs which have been charged to additional paid in capital upon completion
of the Initial Public Offering.
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering on October 13, 2020, an amount of $ 70,700,000 ($ 10.00 per Unit, plus $ 700,000 trust deposit
premium) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants
was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) which are to be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning
set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company
that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation
of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account, as described below.
The
Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering
and the sale of the private warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating
a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company
must complete a Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as
defined below) (excluding taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial
Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more
of the 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 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).
5
The
Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem
all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting
called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder
approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders
will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated
to be $ 10.10 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 franchise and income tax obligations and up to $ 250,000 per 12-month period for working capital requirements).
There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.
The
Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 upon such consummation
of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business
Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or
other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however,
stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal
reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant
to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor
have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (See Notes 5 and 7), and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering
in favor of approving a Business Combination and not to convert any shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business
Combination or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination. Additionally, each public
stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or don’t
vote at all.
The
Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection
with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect
to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination, and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect a public stockholder’s ability to convert or sell their shares to the Company
in connection with a Business Combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100 % of its Public
Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity
to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
The Company will have until
12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”), which
was extended as disclosed in Note 9. If the Company is unable to complete a 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 and not previously released to the Company to pay franchise
and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’
rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii)
as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and
the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware
law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating
distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination
within the Combination Period.
6
In
order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to 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 discussed
entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $ 10.10 per Public Share, except as to
any claims by a third party who executed a valid and enforceable agreement with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim
of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity
of the underwriters of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third
party, the Insiders will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce
the possibility that the Insiders will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors,
service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the
Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Liquidity
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern,
which contemplates realization of assets and satisfying liabilities in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2021, the Company
had an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 6,604,000 and working capital deficiency of approximately $ 3,698,000 . For the nine months
ended September 30, 2021, the Company had a loss from operations of approximately $ 2,155,000 and negative cash flows from operations
of approximately $ 500,000 .
Based on the funds received from
the Initial Public Offering and funds available under borrowing arrangements management believes that the Company will have sufficient
working capital and borrowing capacity to successfully complete the Business Combination. Over this time period, the Company will be
using these funds for paying operational expenses, 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.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial information as of September 30, 2021 and for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2021 has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of
management, such financial information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary
for a fair presentation of our financial position at such dates and the operating results and cash flows for such periods. Operating
results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire
year or for any other subsequent interim period.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant
to the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. These unaudited financial statements and related notes should
be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on June 16, 2021.
Emerging
Growth Company
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 independent registered public accounting firm 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 stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously
approved.
7
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 sch 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 statement 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 financial statement in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s 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
statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Making
estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. 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 statement, which management considered in formulating
its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Marketable
Securities Held in Trust and Operating Account
At
September 30, 2021, the assets held in the Trust Account were substantially held in U.S. Treasury Bills. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2021, the Company withdrew no interest income or withdrawals from the Trust Account.
At
September 30, 2021, the marketable securities held in the Company’s operating account were investments that substantially hold
bonds and fixed income securities.

Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified
as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption
rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within
the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’
equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s
control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at
redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated
balance sheets.

Offering
Costs
Offering
costs consist of underwriting discounts, professional fees, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs incurred through the balance
sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. The deferred offering costs were offset against the IPO and overallotment
upon completion of the IPO and overallotment transaction during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Warrant
Liability
The
Company accounts for the Private Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815 under which the Private Warrants do not
meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Private
Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Private Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is
subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the Private Warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value
is recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants was initially and subsequently measured
at the end of each reporting period, using a Monte Carlo simulation (See Note 8).
Income
Taxes
Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets,
including tax loss and credit carry forwards, 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 includes the enactment date.
The
Company utilizes ASC 740, Income Taxes , which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected
future tax consequences of events that have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns.
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method to compute the differences between the tax basis of assets
and liabilities and the related financial amounts, using currently enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more
likely than not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s
net deferred tax asset has been fully reserved.
For
uncertain tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold, the Company recognizes the benefit of uncertain tax
positions in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties,
if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations when
a determination is made that such expense is likely.
Net
Loss per Common Share
Net
loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Accretion associated with the redeemable
shares of common stock is excluded from EPS as the redemption value approximates fair value.
At
September 30, 2021, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase of up to 10,511,597 shares of common stock. The weighted average
of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share of common stock since the exercise of the Warrants is
contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not have any dilutive securities
or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into shares of common stock and then share in the earnings of the
Company. As a result, diluted net loss per share of common stock is the same as basic net loss per share of common stock for the period.

Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations 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 . As of September 30, 2021, the Company has not experienced
losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements

NOTE
3 –PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant
to the Initial Public Offering on October 13, 2020, the Company sold 7,000,000 units at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit for a total of $ 70,000,000 .
Each Unit consists of one share of common stock and one warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the

Private
Warrants
Concurrent
with the Initial Public Offering, our sponsor purchased 3,150,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 , see Note 1. Simultaneously
with the closing of the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 83,446 Private Warrants
at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $ 83,446 .
The
fair value of the Private Warrants at December 31, 2020 was a liability of $ 3,399,878 . At September 30, 2021, the fair value was $ 2,143,416 .
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the gain on the change in fair value was $ 85,040 and $ 1,256,462 , respectively,
and is reflected in change in fair value of warrant liability on the condensed statements of operations.
Related
Party Loans
In
addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, certain of the Company’s officers and
directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”).
If
the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account
released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the
event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the
Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing,
the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.
The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s
discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at
a price of $1.00 per warrant. There have been no Working Capital Loans to date.
Pine
Valley Investments LLC
On September 17, 2021, the
Company entered into a senior promissory with Pine Valley Investments LLC, a New Jersey Limited Liability Company (“Pine Valley”),
an affiliate of the Company’s sponsor, LifeSci Capital LLC, with a principal amount of $ 850,000 . Interest was to accrue at 2 % per
month on all outstanding principal. The Company was able to drawdown requests on the note in amounts no less than $ 50,000 unless agreed
upon by the parties. The outstanding principal and any accrued interest was due upon the Company’s consummation of a merger, share
exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combinations. On October 13, 2021,
the Company and Pine Valley entered into a Note Cancellation Agreement (See Note 9). No amounts were drawn against the note at September
30, 2021.
NOTE
6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration
Rights
The
holders of the Founder Shares, private warrants, and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and all underlying
securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective
date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the
Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at
any time commencing three months prior to the date on which the Founder Shares are to be released from escrow.
Underwriting
Agreement
The
Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus filed on October 13, 2020 to purchase up to 1,050,000
additional units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The
underwriters are entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $ 0.20 per unit, or $ 1,400,000 in the aggregate (or $ 1,610,000 in the aggregate
if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), payable upon the closing of the Proposed Public Offering, and
deferred compensation of $ 0.40 per unit, or $ 2,800,000 upon completion of a business combination or $ 3,220,000 in the aggregate if the
underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full.

See
Note 3 for partial exercise of over-allotment subsequent to the Initial Public Offering. The remaining portion of the over-allotments
units expired.
Business
Combination Marketing Agreement
The
Company has engaged LifeSci Capital LLC as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings
with its shareholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company
to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities in connection with a Business Combination, assist
the Company in obtaining shareholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public
filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay LifeSci Capital LLC a cash fee for such services upon the consummation
of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 4.0% of the gross proceeds of Initial Public Offering, exclusive of any applicable finders’
fees which might become payable.
Agreement
and Plan of Merger
On
August 29, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) with Petra Acquisition Merger
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Revelation Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“RevBio”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Revbio becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
In accordance with the terms
of the Agreement, at the Closing the Company will issue 10,500,000 shares of its common stock to RevBio as consideration for 100 % of RevBio’s
outstanding equity interests. Immediately following the Closing, the Company will have 12,319,538 (excluding 7,278,151 shares subject
to redemption) shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The pre-merger shareholders of the Company will retain an aggregate of 1,819,538
shares of common stock of the Company, representing 14 % ownership of the post-Merger Company. Therefore, upon consummation of the Merger,
there will be a change in control of the Company, with the former owners of RevBio effectively acquiring control of the Company. The Merger
will be treated as a reverse recapitalization effected by a share exchange for financial and reporting purposes since the Company will
be deemed to be a shell corporation with nominal operations and assets at the time of the Merger. RevBio will be considered the acquirer
for accounting purposes, and the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger will be replaced with the historical
financial statements of RevBio before the Merger in future filings.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, at the Closing, the Company shall file a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State
of Delaware, executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL (the “Certificate of Merger”). The Merger shall
become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger or at such later time as is agreed to by the parties and specified in the
Certificate of Merger. As of September 30, 2021, the Company did not file the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware.
Note
7 – Stockholders’ Equity
Common
Stock
The
authorized common stock of the Company is up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock. If the Company enters into an Initial Business Combination,
it may (depending on the terms of such an Initial Business Combination) be required to increase the number of shares of common stock
which the Company is authorized to issue at the same time as the Company’s stockholders vote on the Initial Business Combination
to the extent the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with the Initial Business Combination. Holders of the Company’s
common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock. At September 30, 2021, there were 9,097,689 shares of common stock
issued and outstanding, of which 7,278,151 shares were subject to possible redemption and are classified outside of permanent equity
at the balance sheet. In connection with issuance of shares of common stock, the Company issued 7,278,151 Public Warrants.
12
Preferred
Stock
The
Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as
may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At September 30, 2021, there were no shares of preferred
stock issued or outstanding.
Warrants
The
Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from
the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current
registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to
such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable
upon exercise of the public warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination,
warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have
failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section
3(a) (9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available,
holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion
of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Once
the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants as follows:
●
in
whole and not in part;
●
at
a price of $0.01 per warrant;
●
upon
not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
●
if,
and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading
days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
● if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants.
If
the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the
Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.
The
Private Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that
the Private Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable
or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants
will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the
initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their
permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the
Public Warrants.
The
exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including
in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted
for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash
settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates
the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will
they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly,
the warrants may expire worthless.
13
In
addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection
with the closing of an initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $ 9.50 per share of common
stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and in
the case of any such issuance to our sponsor, initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founders’
shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60 % of the total
equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of an initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of
an initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the common stock during the
20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummated an initial Business Combination (such
price, the “Market Value”) is below $ 9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest
cent) to be equal to 115 % of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional shares
of common stock or equity-linked securities.
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). 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 September
30, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The
fair value of the Private Warrants have been using a Monte Carlo simulation since the initial measurement date. For the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized a gain in the statement of operations resulting from a decrease of $ 85,040 and
$ 1,256,462 in the fair value of warrant liabilities, respectively, presented as change in fair value of derivative warrant liability.
The
estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants prior to being separately listed and traded, is determined using Level 3
inputs. Inherent in a Monte Carlo simulation are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, and risk-free
interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s
traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer companies’ common stock that matches the expected remaining life
of the Warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a
maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the Warrants. The expected life of the Warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their
estimated remaining life.
NOTE
9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Promissory
Note Cancellation
On
October 13, 2021, the Company and Pine Valley entered into a Note Cancellation Agreement whereas the note and all obligations outstanding
in connection with the note were cancelled. At the time of the Note Cancellation Agreement there was no outstanding principal or accrued
interest.
Entry into Promissory Notes
Simultaneous with the Note Cancellation,
on October 13, 2021, the Company issued three senior promissory notes in an aggregate amount of up to $ 750,000 , which may be drawn down
upon requests in amounts no less than $ 50,000 unless agreed upon by the parties. The notes accrue interest at the rate of 2 % per month
on the outstanding loan amount and such amounts will be repayable by Company upon consummation of an initial business combination.
Amendment
to Certificate of Incorporation
On
October 8, 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved to amend the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation,
pursuant to which, the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination was extended from October 13, 2021 to November
13, 2021. In addition, the amendment provides the Company options to further extend such date to December 13, 2021 and January 13, 2021.

Overview
We
are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 20, 2019 for the purpose of effecting a merger,
share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization or reorganization (each a “Business Combination”) with
one or more businesses or entities. We intend to complete our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds from our Initial Public
Offering, the exercise of over-allotment option and the sale of the private warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash,
stock and debt.
Our
entire activity since inception relates to our formation, to prepare for our Initial Public Offering, which was consummated on October
13, 2020 and identifying a company for a Business Combination.
The
issuance of additional shares in connection with an initial Business Combination:
●
may
significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
●
may
subordinate the rights of holders of common stock if we issue preferred shares with rights senior to those afforded to our shares
of common stock;
●
will
likely cause a change in control if a substantial number of our shares of common stock are issued, which may affect, among other
things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and most likely will also result in the resignation or
removal of our present officers and directors; and
●
may
adversely affect prevailing market prices for our securities.
Similarly,
if we issue debt securities, it could result in:
●
default
and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a Business Combination are insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
●
acceleration
of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security
contains covenants that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and we breach any such covenant without
a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
●
our
immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand; and
●
our
inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain
additional financing while such security is outstanding.
We
expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans
to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.
Recent Developments
On
August 29, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) with Petra Acquisition Merger Inc., a
Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Revelation Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“RevBio”). Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Revbio becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. See
Note 6 to Item 1 above for a description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
Results
of Operations
Our only activities from November 20, 2019 (inception)
through September 30, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to consummate the Initial Public Offering, described below,
searching for a target company for a business combination, and the proposed acquisition of RevBio. We generate non-operating income in
the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the Initial Public Offering. We incur expenses as a result of being a
public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For
the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $757,638 which consisted primarily of general and administrative expenses
of $844,531 and change in fair value of warrant liability of $85,040. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we had a net loss
of $868, which consisted solely of general and administrative expenses.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $910,588 which consisted primarily of general and administrative expenses
of $2,155,418 and change in fair value of warrant liability of $1,256,462. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had a net
loss of $8,549, which consisted solely of general and administrative expenses.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Until
the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs were satisfied by notes payable and advances from our Sponsor.
On
October 13, 2020, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 7,000,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds
of $70,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 3,150,000 Private Warrants
to our Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $3,150,000.
On
October 16, 2020, in connection with the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option, we consummated the sale
of an additional 278,151 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $2,781,151. In addition, we also consummated
the sale of an additional 83,446 Private Warrants to our Sponsor at $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $83,446.
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option and the sale of the additional Private Warrants,
an aggregate amount of $73,509,325 has been placed in the Company’s trust account established in connection with the IPO.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021,
cash used in operating activities was $499,916, which represented $910,588 in net loss, $17,356 in unrealized loss on marketable securities,
changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,560,341 and $94,936 in prepaid insurance, offset primarily by $1,256,462 in
change in fair value of warrant liability and $5,499 in interest earned on cash held in trust,.
As of September 30, 2021, we had cash and cash
equivalents of $0, marketable securities of $19,749, prepaid expenses of $19,334, and $73,514,561 held in our Trust account from our IPO
and the purchase of private warrants, consisting primarily of cash and money market funds with short-term maturities. Interest income
on the balance in the trust account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through September 30, 2021, we did not withdraw any interest earned
on the trust account.
We
intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, to acquire a target business and to pay our expenses relating
thereto. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect a business combination, the remaining
funds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital
funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions
and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses
or finders’ fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our business combination if the funds available to us outside
of the trust account were insufficient to cover such expenses.
18
In
order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or our
officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds on a non-interest basis as may be required. If
we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial business combination
does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds
from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of notes may be convertible into Private Warrants, at a price
of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants.
We
do not believe we will need to raise additional funds subsequent to the Initial Public Offering in order to meet the expenditures required
for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target
business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary
to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our business combination. Moreover, we may need to
obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number
of our public shares upon completion of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection
with such business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds
available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account.
Off-balance
sheet financing arrangements
We
have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2021. We do
not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as
variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have
not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments
of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual
obligations
We
do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than the underwriters
are entitled to deferred compensation of $0.40 per unit, or $2,800,000 upon completion of a business combination or $3,220,000 in the
aggregate if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable
to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to
the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual
results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies as of September 30,
2021.
Common
stock subject to possible redemption
We
account for common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability
instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights
that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our
control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our common
stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future
events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the
stockholders’ equity section of our condensed balance sheet.
19
Derivative
Warrant Liabilities
The
Company accounts for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815 under which the Private Warrants do not meet the
criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Private Warrants
as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Private Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject
to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the Private Warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized
in the Company’s statement of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants was initially and subsequently measured at the
end of each reporting period, using a Monte Carlo simulation.
Recent
accounting pronouncements
Management
does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect
on our condensed financial statements.
ITEM
3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As
of September 30, 2021, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of our Initial Public Offering,
the net proceeds received into the Trust Account, have been invested in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity
of 185 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in US treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments,
we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.
ITEM
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure
controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in
the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated
to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As
required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021. Based on this evaluation,
our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that, solely due to the events that led
to the Company’s restatement of its financial statements to reclassify the Company’s derivative instruments as liabilities
(which are described in the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on June 16, 2021) (the “Restatement”),
during the period covered by this report, a material weakness existed and our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There
was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter of 2021 covered by this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
In light of the material weakness identified and the resulting Restatement, we plan to enhance our processes to identify and appropriately
apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply
to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and
documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting
applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives
will ultimately have the intended effects.

ITEM
1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There
are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or in which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner
of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of voting securities of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to
the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company. The Company’s property is not the subject of any pending legal proceedings.
ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS
There
have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the
year ended December 31, 2020, filed June 16, 2021.
ITEM
2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In
January 2020, we issued 3,593,750 Founder Shares for an aggregate price of $25,000 to our Sponsor. The foregoing issuance was made pursuant
to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”).
On August 24, 2020, pursuant to amendment to the terms of the Company’s offering our Sponsor agreed to cancel 1,437,500 shares,
resulting in an aggregate amount of 2,156,250 founders shares outstanding. On October 7, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to cancel an aggregate
of 143,750 Founder Shares such that the original issuance was reduced to 2,012,500 shares of common stock.
On
October 13, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 7,000,000 units. On October 16, 2020, we consummated the sale of an additional
278,151 units subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The units sold in the Initial Public Offering, including pursuant
to the over-allotment option, were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $72,781,510. LifeSci
Capital LLC and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., acted as joint book-running managers and Northland Securities, Inc., and Ingalls &
Snyder LLC acted as co-managers of the Initial Public Offering. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act
on registration statements on Forms S-1 (Nos. 333-240175). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement
effective on October 7, 2020.
Simultaneous
with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 3,150,000 private warrants
(“Private Warrants”) to our Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $3,150,000. Simultaneous
with the consummation of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, we consummated the private placement of an additional 83,446
Private Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $83,446. These issuances were made
pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
The
Private Warrants are identical to the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the private warrants: (i) will not be
redeemable by us and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, as described in this prospectus, in each case so long as
they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees. If the private warrants are held by holders other than
the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, the private warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders
on the same basis as the warrants included in the units being sold in this offering. Furthermore, our initial stockholders have agreed
to vote the their founders shares in favor of any proposed business combination, as applicable (B) not to convert any founders shares
in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or sell any shares to us in a tender offer in
connection with a proposed initial business combination and (C) that the founders shares shall not participate in any liquidating distribution
from our trust account upon winding up if a business combination is not consummated.
Of
the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering and private placement of Private Warrants, $73,509,325 has been placed in
a trust account.
Transaction
costs amounted to $4,682,736, consisting of $4,366,890 of underwriting fees ($2,911,260 of which payment is deferred) and $315,846 of
professional fees, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs which have been charged to additional paid in capital upon completion
of the Initial Public Offering.
For
a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
