redemption rights as is required under Regulation I 4A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation
of proxies.
Upon the public announcement of our business combination, we or our sponsor will terminate any plan
established in accordance with Rule lobs- 1 to purchase shares of our common stock in the open market if we
elect to redeem our public shares through a tender offer, to comply with Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act.
In the event we conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules. our offer to redeem will remain open
for at least 20 business days, in accordance with Rule It -1(a) under the Exchange Act, and we will not be
permitted to complete our initial business combination until the expiration of the tender offer period. In addition,
the tender offer will be conditioned on public stockholders not tendering more than a specified number of public
shares which are not purchased by our sponsor. which number will be based on the requirement that we may not
re t= public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that we
are not subject to the SEC's "penny stock" rules) or any greater net

tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to our initial business
combination. If public stockholders tender more shares than we have offered to purchase. we will withdraw the
tender offer and not complete the initial business combination.
If. however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law or stock exchange listing requirement.
or we decide to obtain stockholder approval for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to our amended
and restated certificate of incorporation:
• conduct the redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation I 4A of the
Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, and
• file proxy materials with the SEC.
In the event that we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, we will distribute proxy
materials and, in connection therewith. provide our public stockholders with the redemption rights described
above upon completion of the initial business combination.
If we seek stockholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if a majority of the
outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the business combination. In such case, our initial
stockholder has agreed to vote its founder shares and any public shares purchased during or after this offering in
favor of our initial business combination, and our officers, directors and director nominees have also agreed to
vote any public shares purchased during or after the offering in favor of our initial business combination. Each
public stockholder may elect to redeem their public shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the
proposed transaction. In addition, our initial stockholder. officers. directors and director nominees have entered
into letter agreements with us. pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect
to their founder shares and public shares in connixtion with the completion of our initial business combination.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that in no event will we redeem our public
shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that we are not subject
to the SEC's "penny stock" rules). Redemptions of our public shares may also be subject to a higher net tangible
asset test or cash requirement pursuant to an agreement relating to our initial business combination. For example,
the proposed business combination may require: (i) cash consideration to be paid to the target or its owners, (ii)
cash to be transferred to the target for working capital or other general corporate purposes or (iii) the retention of
cash to satisfy other conditions in accordance with the terms of the proposed business combination. In the event
the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all shares of common stock that are validly
submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cast conditions pursuant to the terms of the
proposed business combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the
business combination or redeem any shares, and all shares of common stock submitted for redemption will be
returned to the holders thereof.
limitation on redemption upon completion otour initial business combination if e e seek stockholder
approval
Notwithstanding the foregoing. if we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination and we do
not conduct redemptions in connection with our business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate
of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a "group" (as
defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to
Excess Shares. We believe this restriction will discourage stockholders from accumulating large blocks of shares,
and subsequent attempts by such holders to use their ability to exercise their redemption rights against a proposed
business combination as a means to force us or our management to purchase their shares at a significant premium
to the then-current market price
