| SPAC Sponsor [Table Text Block] | Our Sponsor Our sponsor is a Cayman Islands limited liability company, which was formed to invest in us. Although our sponsor is permitted to undertake any activities permitted under its agreement and the Limited Liabilities Companies Act, as revised, and other applicable law, our sponsor’s business is focused on investing in our company. The manager of the sponsor is Bet on America II HoldCo LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company, that Benjamin A. Friedman, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and a member of our board of directors, controls. In this capacity, Mr. Friedman controls the management of our sponsor, including the exercise of voting and investment discretion over the securities of our company held by our sponsor. The sponsor non-managing members have expressed an interest to purchase non-managing membership interests in our sponsor, reflecting interests in an aggregate of 80,000 of the 201,500 private placement units to be purchased by our sponsor at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit ($800,000 in the aggregate), in private placements that will close simultaneously with the closing of this offering. Subject to the sponsor non-managing members purchasing, through the sponsor, the private placement units allocated to them simultaneously with the closing of this offering, the sponsor will issue membership interests at a nominal purchase price to the sponsor non-managing members reflecting their interest in an aggregate of 1,454,546 founder shares held by the sponsor. In addition, subject to the consummation of the Private Placement, our sponsor will distribute 363,636 founder shares for a nominal purchase price to the Private Placement Investor. The sponsor non-managing members will have no right to vote the founder shares, private placement units or securities underlying the private placement units that they hold indirectly through their membership interests in the sponsor. See “Summary — The Offering — Private placement units non-managing members or our independent directors will hold voting interests in our sponsor nor have any rights to control our sponsor or to vote or dispose of any securities held by our sponsor, (ii) each of the sponsor non-managing members is an institutional investor that is able to bear the complete risk of loss of the proposed investment in our sponsor, and (iii) no individual sponsor non-managing member or independent director would indirectly own a significant percentage of any of the securities held by our sponsor, none of the sponsor non-managing members or independent directors will have a direct or indirect material economic interest in our sponsor. Certain of our officers and directors hold approximately 74% of the outstanding Class A membership interests and approximately 60% of the outstanding Class B membership in our Sponsor. The remaining membership interests in the Sponsor are held by certain sponsor non-managing members, each of which owns less than 20% of the Class A outstanding membership interests or Class B outstanding membership interests in our Sponsor. The following table sets forth the payments to be received by our sponsor and its affiliates from us prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination and the securities issued and to be issued by us to our sponsor or its affiliates:
Because our sponsor acquired the founder shares at a nominal price, our public shareholders will incur immediate and substantial dilution upon the closing of this offering. See the section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Sponsor and Management Team — The nominal purchase price paid by our sponsor for the founder shares and the purchase price paid by our sponsor for the private placement units may result in significant dilution to the implied value of your public shares upon the consummation of our initial business combination The founder shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of our initial business combination, or at any time prior thereto at the option of the holder thereof, on a one-for-one anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 30% of the total number of all ordinary shares outstanding upon completion of this offering plus all Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with our initial business combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares, subject to vesting and any other restrictions, issued or deemed issued to (i) our sponsor (or its members or affiliates) in connection with the consummation of this offering, (ii) any seller in the initial business combination, (iii) any Class A ordinary shares issued to our sponsor (or its members or affiliates) upon conversion of working capital loans and (iv) any Class A ordinary shares included in the private placement units. If we increase or decrease the size of this offering we will effect a capitalization or share repurchase or redemption or other appropriate mechanism, as applicable, with respect to our Class B ordinary shares immediately prior to the consummation of the offering in such amount so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 30% of the total number of all ordinary shares outstanding upon completion of this offering (excluding the private shares). Our public shareholders may incur material dilution due to such anti-dilution adjustments that result in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one In addition, in order to facilitate our initial business combination, our sponsor may surrender or forfeit, transfer or exchange our founder shares, private placement units (or component securities) or any of our other securities, including for no consideration, as well as subject any such securities to earn-outs or other restrictions, or otherwise amend the terms of any such securities or enter into any other arrangements with respect to any such securities. While there is no current intention to do so, and the members of our management team and sponsor have not done so with any previously formed special purpose acquisition companies, we may approve an amendment or waiver of the letter agreement that would allow the sponsor to directly, or members of our sponsor to indirectly, transfer founder shares and private placement units (including component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities) or membership interests in our sponsor in a transaction in which the sponsor removes itself as our sponsor before identifying a business combination. As a result, there is a risk that our sponsor and our officers and directors may divest their ownership or economic interests in us or in our sponsor. There can be no assurance that any replacement sponsor or key personnel will successfully identify a business combination target for us, or, even if one is so identified, successfully complete such business combination. If we raise additional funds through equity or convertible debt issuances, our public shareholders may suffer significant dilution. This dilution would increase to the extent that the anti-dilution provision of the founder shares result in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one Pursuant to a letter agreement to be entered with us, our sponsor and each of our directors and officers and the Private Placement Investor will agree to restrictions on their ability to transfer, assign, or sell the founder shares and private placement units (including component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities) as summarized in the table below.
In addition, pursuant to such letter agreement, for the benefit of D. Boral, we, our sponsor and our officers and directors and the Private Placement Investor will agree not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, charge or grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of D. Boral for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus, any units, rights, ordinary shares or any other securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, ordinary shares or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any units, ordinary shares, or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, ordinary shares owned, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that we may (1) issue and sell the private placement units; (2) issue and sell the additional units to cover our underwriters’ over-allotment option (if any); (3) register with the SEC pursuant to an agreement to be entered into concurrently with the issuance and sale of the securities in this offering, the resale of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the rights and upon conversion of the founder shares; and (4) issue securities in connection with our initial business combination. However, the foregoing restriction shall not apply to the forfeiture of any founder shares pursuant to their terms. D. Boral in its sole discretion may release any of the securities subject to these lock-up agreements, subject to any applicable notice requirements.The founder shares and the private placement units, as applicable, held by the sponsor will only be distributed to the members of the sponsor (including the sponsor
non-managing members) after consummation of our initial business combination, at which time such sponsor non-managing members would become subject to the applicable transfer restrictions with respect to such securities. |
