Act. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations
and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are
subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that
may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to
be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance
or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some
cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may,"
"should," "could," "would," "will," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe,"
"estimate," "continue," or the negative of such terms or other similar
expressions. Factors that might cause actual results to differ materially from

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination.
If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, or
We intend to effectuate our Initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement of the Private Placement Warrants, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our Initial Business Combination (pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into following the consummation of this offering or otherwise), shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.

In the event that the business combination transaction as contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement is not consummated, the issuance of additional shares in connection with a business combination to the owners of the target or other investors:
• may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in this
offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions
in the Class B common stock resulted in the issuance of Class A common
stock on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B
common stock;
• may subordinate the rights of holders of Class A common stock if shares
of preferred stock are issued with rights senior to those afforded our
Class A common stock;
• could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our
Class A common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things,
our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and
could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and
directors;
• may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us
by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to
obtain control of us; and
• may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A common
stock and/or warrants.
Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or the owners of a target, it could result in:
• default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an
initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt
obligations;
• acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make
all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain
covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or
reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
• our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if
the debt is payable on demand;
• our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt
contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while
the debt is outstanding;
• our inability to pay dividends on our Class A common stock;
• using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and
interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends
on our Class A common stock if declared, expenses, capital expenditures,
acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
• limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in
our business and in the industry in which we operate;
• increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry
and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;
and
• limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses,
capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution
of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to
our competitors who have less debt.

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, 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.
Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the balance sheet. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

These holders will be entitled to certain demand and "piggyback" registration rights. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
We granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the final prospectus relating

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the following as its critical accounting policies:
Investments Held in the Trust Account
Our portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised of
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in
accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity." Shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if
any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value.
Shares of conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A
common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control
of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events
not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other
times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders' equity.
Our Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered
to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future
events. Accordingly, as of

Net Loss Per Common Share
We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share." Net income per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. We have not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 14,213,333 shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted earnings per share is the same as basic earnings per share for the period.
Our statement of operations includes a presentation of income per share for
common stock subject to redemption in a manner similar
to the two-class method of income per share. Net income per share, basic and
diluted for Class A common stock is calculated by dividing the net gain from
investments held in the Trust Account of approximately
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
As of
JOBS Act
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an "emerging growth company," we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor's attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our management does not believe there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, that would have a material effect on our financial statements.
