 Combination. The purpose of any such purchases of Public Warrants could be to reduce the
number of Public Warrants outstanding or to vote such Public Warrant on any matters submitted to the warrant holders for approval in
connection with an initial Business Combination. Any such purchases of our securities may result in the completion of an initial Business
Combination that may not otherwise have been possible. We expect any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section
16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchasers are subject to such reporting requirements.

In
addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of the Public Shares or Public Warrants and the number of beneficial
holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to obtain or maintain the quotation, listing or trading of our
securities on a national securities exchange.

In
the event our Sponsor, Initial Shareholders, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates were to purchase public shares from Public
Shareholders, such purchases would be structured in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act including,
in pertinent part, through adherence to the following:

    ●
    Our
    registration statement/proxy statement filed for our Business Combination transaction would disclose the possibility that our Sponsor,
    Initial Shareholders, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates may purchase Public Shares from Public Shareholders outside
    the redemption process, along with the purpose of such purchases;

    ●
    if
    our Sponsor, Initial Shareholders, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates were to purchase Public Shares from Public
    Shareholders, they would do so at a price no higher than the price offered through our redemption process;

    ●
    our
    registration statement/proxy statement filed for our Business Combination transaction would include a representation that any of
    our securities purchased by our Sponsor, Initial Shareholders, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates would not be voted
    in favor of approving the Business Combination transaction;

    ●
    our
    Sponsor, Initial Shareholders, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates would not possess any redemption rights with respect
    to our securities or, if they do acquire and possess redemption rights, they would waive such rights; and

    ●
    we
    would disclose in a Form 8-K, before our security holder meeting to approve the Business Combination transaction, the following material
    items:

    ○
    the
    amount of our securities purchased outside
