Founder Shares

 

On March 24, 2021, the Sponsor received 1,437,500 of the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) in exchange for $25,000 to be paid at a later date. On December 20, 2021, the board of directors of the Company and our sponsor, as sole shareholder of the Company, approved, through a special resolution, the following share capital changes:

 

  (a) Each of the authorized but unissued 150,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were cancelled and re-designated as ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each;
  (b) Each of the 1,437,500 Class B ordinary shares in issue were exchanged in consideration for the issuance of 1,437,500 ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each; and
  (c) Upon completion of the above steps, the authorized but unissued 10,000,000 Class B ordinary shares were cancelled.

 

On December 20, 2021, subsequent to the above share exchange the Company issued an additional 287,500 ordinary shares to our Sponsor for no additional consideration, resulting in our Sponsor holding an aggregate of 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the founder shares). The issuance was considered as a bonus share issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively. The founder shares include an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part. On October 18, 2022, the underwriter partially exercised the over-allotment and as such, as of November 28, 2022, 150,000 ordinary shares are not subject to forfeiture.

 

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

 

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On March 17, 2021, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) September 30, 2022 or (ii) the consummation of the Proposed Public Offering. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under the Promissory Note.

The Sponsor paid certain formation and operating costs on behalf of the Company. These advances are due on demand and non-interest bearing. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount due to the Sponsor was $193,164 and $130,687, respectively.

 

Administrative Services Agreement

 

Commencing on the date the Units are first listed on the Nasdaq, the Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

 

Related Party Loans

 

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes may be repaid upon completion of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the notes may be converted into units, at the price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Loans.
