None of our executive officers or directors has ever been associated with a special purpose acquisition
corporation. Accordingly, you may not have sufficient information with which to evaluate their ability to identify
and consummate a business combination using the proceeds of this offering. Our management's lack of
experience in operating a special purpose acquisition corporation could adversely affect our ability to
consummate a business combination and could result in our not completing a business combination in the
prescribed time frame.
Our key personnel may negotiate employment or consulting agreements with a target business in
connection with a particular business combination. These agreements may pro' ide for them to receive
compensation following our business combination and as a result, may cause them to have conflicts of
interest in determining w hether a particular business combination is the most advantageous.
Our key personnel may be able to remain with the company after the completion of our business combination
only if they are able to negotiate employment or consulting agreements in connection with the business
combination. Such negotiations would take place simultaneously with the negotiation of the business combination
and could provide for such individuals to receive compensation in the form of cash payments and/or our securities
for services they would render to us after the completion of the business combination. The penonal and financial
interests of such individuals may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business.
However, we believe the ability of such individuals to remain with us after the completion of our business
combination will not be the determining factor in our decision as to whether or not we will proemd with any
potential business combination. There is no certainty, however, that any of our key personnel will remain with us
after the completion of our business combination. We cannot assure you that any of our key personnel will remain
in senior management or advisory positions with us. The determination as to whether any of our key personnel
will remain with us will be made at the time of our initial business combination.
We may have a limited ability to assess the management of a prospective target business and, as a result,
may effect our initial business combination with a target business whose management may not have the
skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company.
When evaluating the desirability of effecting our initial business combination with a prospective target
business, our ability to assess the target business's management may be limited due to a lack of time, resources or
information. Our assessment of the capabilities of the target's management, therefore, may prove to be incorrect
and such management may lack
43
the skills, qualifications or abilities we suspected. Should the target's management not possess the skills,
qualifications or abilities nrciessaiy to manage a public company, the operations and profitability of the post-
combination business may be negatively impacted. Accordingly, any stockholders who choose to remain
stockholders following the business combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares. Such
stockholders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value unless they are able to rtiors-siully claim
that the reduction was due to the breach by our officers or directors of a duty of care or other fiduciary duty owed
to them, or if they arc able to successfully bring a private claim under securities laws that the tender offer
materials or proxy statement relating to the business combination contained an actionable material misstatement or
material omission.
The officers and directors of an acquisition candidate may resign upon completion of our initial business
combination. The departure of a business combination target's key personnel could negatively impact the
operations and profitability of our post-combination business. The role of an acquisition candidates' key
personnel upon the completion of our initial business combination cannot be ascertained at this time. Although we
contemplate that certain members of an acquisition candidate's management team will remain associated with the
acquisition candidate following our initial business combination, it is possible that members of the management of
an acquisition candidate 'sill not wish to remain in place.
Our executive officers and director; will allocate their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of
interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our affairs. 'Ellis conflict or interest could
have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination.
While Mr. Zepf currently expects to devote the substantial majority of his time to our affairs, our other
executive officers and directors are not required to, and will not, commit their full time to our affairs, which may
result in a conflict of interest in allocating their time between our operations and our search for a business
combination and their other businesses. We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion
of our business combination. Our independent directors also serve as officers and board members for other
entities. If our executive officers' and directors' other business affairs require them to devote substantial amounts
of time to such affairs in exom of their curtail commitment levels, it could limit their ability to devote time to
our affairs which may have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination. For a
complete discussion of our executive officers' and directors' other business affairs, please see "Management—
Directors and Executive Officers."
