Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities
Use
of Proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and Concurrent Private Placement
On
March 16, 2021 we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,000,000 Units, with each Unit consisting of one share of Class A common
stock and one-fourth of one warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price
of $11.50 per whole share. The Units in the Initial Public Offering were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total
gross proceeds of approximately $250,000,000. CF&Co. acted as sole book-running manager for the Initial Public Offering. The securities
sold in the Initial Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on registration statements on Form S-1 (Nos. 333-253308 and
333-254185). The registration statements became effective on March 11, 2021.
We
paid a total of $4,500,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and approximately $400,000 for other costs and expenses related to
the Initial Public Offering. In addition, we have engaged CF&Co. as an advisor in connection with our business combination, pursuant
to a Business Combination Marketing Agreement. We will pay CF&Co. a cash fee for such services out of funds in the Trust Account upon
the consummation of our Initial Business Combination in an amount of $9,350,000, which is equal to, in the aggregate, 3.5% of the gross
proceeds of the base offering in the Initial Public Offering and 5.5% of the gross proceeds from the exercise of the underwriters’
over-allotment option. We also repaid the Pre-IPO Note to our Sponsor from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering.
After
deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds from our Initial Public Offering
and the sale of the Private Placement Units was approximately $250,000,000, of which $244,600,000 of the proceeds from the Initial Public
Offering and $5,400,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, was placed in the Trust Account. As of June 30, 2021,
approximately $66,100 was held outside the Trust Account and will be used to fund the Company’s operating expenses. The proceeds
held in the Trust Account may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or
in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the
Investment Company Act.
There
has been no material change in the planned use of the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement as is described
in the Company’s final prospectus related to the Initial Public Offering.
