 our ability to identify a suitable target and to complete an initial business combination. If we complete an initial business combination with such a target, the post -businesscombination company’s operations and financial results could be adversely affected as a result of tariffs or changes to trade policies, which may cause the market value of the securities of the post -businesscombination company to decline. Changes in the market for directors and officers liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate and complete an initial business combination. In recent years, the market for directors and officers liability insurance for special purpose acquisition companies has changed in ways adverse to us and our management team. The premiums charged for such policies have generally increased and the terms of such policies have generally become less favorable. These trends may continue into the future. The increased cost and decreased availability of directors and officers liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate an initial business combination. In order to obtain directors and officers liability insurance or modify its coverage as a result of becoming a public company, the post -businesscombination entity might need to incur greater expense, accept less favorable terms or both. However, any failure to obtain adequate directors and officers liability insurance could have an adverse impact on the post -businesscombination’s ability to attract and retain qualified officers and directors. 43 In addition, even after we were to complete an initial business combination, our directors and officers could still be subject to potential liability from claims arising from conduct alleged to have occurred prior to the initial business combination. As a result, in order to protect our directors and officers, the post -businesscombination entity may need to purchase additional insurance with respect to any such claims (“run -offinsurance”). The need for run -offinsurance would be an added expense for the post -businesscombination entity, and could interfere with or frustrate our ability to consummate an initial business combination on terms favorable to our investors. If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, GSR Sponsor, our directors, officers, advisors or any of their affiliates may elect to purchase shares or public rights from public shareholders, which may increase the likelihood of closing our initial business combination and reduce the public “float” of our securities. If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, GSR Sponsor, our directors, officers, advisors or any of their affiliates may purchase public shares or public rights in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior
