Instead of amending and restating Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement to provide that the funds be held entirely in cash, as described in the Definitive Proxy Statement, the Company has determined that no change be made to Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement. As described in the Definitive Proxy Statement, in order to reduce the risk that the Company be considered an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Company will liquidate the securities held in the trust account prior to the end of the 24-month period after the effective date of the registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering, or October 19, 2023, and instead hold all funds in the trust account in cash. If the proposal to extend the time period the Company has to complete an initial business combination (the “Extension”) and the Trust Agreement Amendment are approved, the Company may have until July 22, 2023 (which is 21 months from the closing of the Company’s initial public offering) to consummate an initial business combination. Accordingly, the Company has determined there is no need to amend Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement at this time. The Company will file an amendment and supplement to the Definitive Proxy Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
