NOTE 7 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of December 31, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 80,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of December 31, 2021, there were no shares of Class A common stock issued or outstanding (excluding 23,000,000 shares subject to possible redemption).

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of December 31, 2021, there were 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class B common stock will have the right to elect all of the Company’s directors prior to a business combination. Holders of Class A common stock and holders of Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders except as otherwise required by law.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock at the time of a business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a business combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such anti- dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a business combination.

Warrants — Public warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional public warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole public warrants will trade. The public warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a initial business combination and (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The public warrants will expire five years after the completion of a business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a public warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a business combination, it will use its reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC, and within 60 business days following a business combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating thereto until the warrants expire or, in the case of public warrants only, are redeemed. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their public warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but will use its reasonable best efforts to qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption for public warrants. Once the public warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem for cash the outstanding public warrants:

in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.01 per public warrant;
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period, to each public warrant holder; and
if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class common stock has been at least $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with the public warrant agreement) for any ten (10) trading days within a 20-trading day period ending on the third (3rd) trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is given to the public warrant holders.

The Company will not redeem the public warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the public warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available throughout the 30-day redemption period or the Company elected to

require the exercise of the public warrants on a “cashless basis” as described below. If and when the public warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

If the Company calls the public warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the public warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreements. In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their public warrants on a “cashless basis”, the Company’s management will consider, among other factors, its cash position, the number of public warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the Company’s stockholders of issuing the maximum number of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the public warrants. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the public warrants for that number of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A common stock underlying the public warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (as defined below) of the Class A common stock over the exercise price of the public warrants by (y) the “fair market value.” Solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “fair market value” means the volume-weighted average last reported sale price of the Class A common stock as reported for the ten trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the public warrants. However, except as described below, the public warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of Class A common stock at a price below their exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the public warrants. If the Company is unable to complete an initial business combination within the Combination Window and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a business combination at an issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a business combination on the date of the completion of a business combination (net of redemptions), and (y)the volume-weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a business combination is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the volume-weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a business combination and the Newly Issued Price and, in the case of public warrants only, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described under “Redemption of warrants” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the volume-weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a business combination and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the public warrants underlying the Units that were sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion of a business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable and exercisable at the election of the holder on a “cashless basis.”

Neither the Private Placement Warrants nor public warrants contain any provisions that change depending upon the characteristics of the holder of the warrant. The warrant agreements contain a provision wherein warrant holders can receive an alternative issuance, including as a result of a tender offer that constitutes a change of control.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 6,500,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.
