Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock") and one redeemable warrant of the Company ("Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share. The Offering will result in gross proceeds of $75.0 million, a portion of which will be placed in a U.S.-based trust account (the "Trust Account"), maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters in the Offering a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,125,000 additional Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any (the "Option"). The Underwriters exercised the Option in full, resulting in the sale of 8,625,000 Units in total and additional gross proceeds of $11.25 million.

The foregoing is only a brief description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement that is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
