ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS On March 18, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 30,000,000 units. On March 18, 2021, in connection with the underwriters’ election to exercise their over-allotment option, we consummated the sale of an additional 4,500,000 Units. The Units sold in our Initial Public Offering and exercise of over-allotment option were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $345,000,000. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-253370). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on March 15, 2021. Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated a private placement of 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants to our Sponsor at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $8,900,000. Such securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants underlying the Units in the Initial Public Offering except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees: (1) they will not be redeemable by the Company except if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for certain adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding public warrants; (2) they (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the Sponsor until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination; (3) they may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis; and (4) they (including the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) are entitled to registration rights. Of the gross proceeds received from our Initial Public Offering including the over-allotment option and the Private Placement Warrants, $345,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. 20 We paid a total of $6,900,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $1,194,599 for other costs and expenses related to our Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriter agreed to defer $12,075,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions. 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. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES None. ITEM 4.
