redemption amount of approximately $165,489,172. Following such redemptions, 9,546,357 Public Shares remain outstanding and the Company
expects to have approximately $96,751,378 remaining in the Trust Account.
Atalaya
Capital Management LP (“Atalaya”) has informed the Company that it is pleased with the results of the Charter Amendment and
voted in favor of the Charter Amendment Proposal, is optimistic about the prospects of the Company’s team, and believes the additional
time will facilitate the Company closing on an accretive business combination. Atalaya will vote its shares in favor of the transaction
with the proposed target. In connection with the Charter Amendment, Atalaya reduced its shareholding to 9.9% of the outstanding shares
(a common industry practice). Atalaya expects to work with the Company’s management team in connection with the Private Investment
in Public Equity process and other capital needs. In addition, given the positive results from the extension vote, the Company and Atalaya
have agreed that Atalaya has the flexibility to redeem its position after its affirmative vote on the business combination but before
the closing of such transaction.
