 ordinary shares we issue may therefore be less, and potentially significantly less,
than the market price for our public shares at such time. Any such issuances would dilute the interest of our public shareholders, and
could result in significant dilution if the issuance price was significantly less than $10.00 per share.

In the event we issue additional shares to investors in a PIPE in connection with our efforts to consummate an initial business combination, there may be an adverse impact and give rise to increased costs and risks that could negatively impact our operations and profitability.

In connection with the completion of our initial business combination, we may seek additional financing, including through PIPE transactions. As disclosed above, this financing could be critical to ensuring the successful completion of the business combination, particularly if there is a shortfall in capital from other sources. However, such arrangements may give raise to an increased cost to consummate our business combination and adversely affect investors, including certain costs and terms that are unique to the business combination process and differ from those typically seen in a traditional initial public offering.

In particular, if we issue additional shares to investors in a PIPE to complete our business combination process, this PIPE financing process often involves negotiations with investors regarding the terms of PIPE financings, which can include the issuance of additional shares or securities that dilute existing shareholders. The sale of these additional shares may result in an increased number of outstanding shares and a corresponding decrease in the ownership percentage of existing shareholders, which could impact the value of their investments. The proceeds from the PIPE financing are intended to provide the liquidity necessary to complete the business combination, but this financing structure involves certain costs that would not typically be associated with a traditional offering. These costs may include, but are not limited to, fees paid to the investors, discounts on share prices, or other financial incentives provided to ensure the investors' participation in the financing.

Moreover, the agreements related to these PIPE investments are often structured with the goal of ensuring a return on investment for the PIPE investors, in exchange for providing the necessary capital to facilitate the completion of our business combination. These arrangements are designed to make certain that we have sufficient liquidity to complete the transaction, but they may also result in terms that prioritize the interests of the PIPE investors, which could be at the expense of the existing public shareholders.

We believe that such financing arrangements are a necessary aspect of the business combination process and may enable the completion of the business combination on favorable terms. However, the process may involve potential dilutive effect of the issuance
