Overview
We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands on
February 23, 2021. We were formed for the purpose of entering into a merger,
share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization,
reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses
or entities, which we refer to as a "target business."
On May 31, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the
"Business Combination Agreement") with Freightos Limited, a Cayman Islands
exempted company limited by shares ("Freightos"), Freightos Merger Sub I, a
Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned
subsidiary of Freightos ("Merger Sub I"), and Freightos Merger Sub II, a Cayman
Islands exempted company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned subsidiary
of Freightos ("Merger Sub II"), pursuant to which, among other transactions, on
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub I will
merge with and into the Company (the "First Merger"), with the Company surviving
the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos, and (ii) the Company
will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the "Second Merger" and together with
the First Merger, collectively, the "Mergers"), with Merger Sub II surviving the
Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Freightos.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our
acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to
complete our initial Business Combination with Freightos or another target
business will be successful.
Results of Operations
As of June 30, 2022, we have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any
revenues. All activity for the period from February 23, 2021 (inception) through
June 30, 2022 relates to our formation, the initial public offering and our
search for a target business with which to consummate a business combination and
in relation thereto, entering into the Business Combination Agreement. We will
not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial
business combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in
the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds
derived from the initial public offering.

Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2022, we had $228,350 in cash and working capital deficit of
$1,635,295.
Prior to the completion of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs had
been satisfied through a payment from the sponsor of $25,000 for the founder
shares to cover certain offering costs, and the loan under an unsecured
promissory note from the sponsor of $182,127. The promissory note was paid in
full on October 18, 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the initial public
offering and private placement, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through
the proceeds from the consummation of the private placement not held in the
trust account and working capital loans described below.
On March 15, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with the
Sponsor in the amount of $450,000. The promissory note would either be repaid
upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the
lender's discretion, convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination
entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the
Private Placement Warrants. The conversion feature was analyzed under ASC
470-20, "Debt with Conversion or Other Options", the note did not include any
premium or discounts. The conversion option did not include elements that would
require bifurcation under ASC 815-40, "Derivatives and Hedging."
On March 18, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with the
Sponsor in the amount of up to $64,945 for expenses paid by the Sponsor on
behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the expenses paid by Sponsor on
behalf of the Company totaled $53,609. On May 10, 2022, the Company borrowed an
additional $11,336 under the promissory note. The promissory note would either
be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at
the lender's discretion, convertible into warrants of the post-Business
Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be
identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The conversion feature was analyzed
under ASC 470-20, "Debt with Conversion or Other Options", the note did not
include any premium or discounts. The conversion option did not include elements
that would require bifurcation under ASC 815-40, "Derivatives and Hedging."
On May 3, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with the
Sponsor in the amount of $250,000. The promissory note would either be repaid

entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had $1,014,945 and
$175,827 borrowings under the Working Capital Loans, respectively.
In connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 205-40, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going
Concern," the Company has until April 14, 2023, to consummate an initial
business combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to
consummate an initial business combination by this time. If an initial business
combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory
liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined
that the liquidity condition and the mandatory liquidation, should an initial
business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No
adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities
should the Company be required to liquidate after April 14, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease
obligations or long-term liabilities.
Critical Accounting Policies
Net Loss Per Ordinary Share
We have two categories of shares, which are referred to as redeemable ordinary
shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro
rata between the two categories of shares.
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
All of the 11,500,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the units contain a
redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares in
connection with our liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer
in connection with the business combination and in connection with certain
amendments to the our amended and restated memorandum and articles of
association. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely
within the control of us require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be
classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all 11,500,000 ordinary
shares were classified outside of permanent equity as of June 30, 2022.
We recognized changes in redemption value immediately as they occur upon the IPO
and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the
redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in
the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges
against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.
