 could interfere with or frustrate our ability to consummate an initial business combination on terms favorable to our investors.

If our initial business combination includes economic interests external to the jurisdiction of the United States, we would incur substantial additional risks.

Additional risk items applicable to us in a scenario wherein we would acquire economic interests beyond the borders of the United States as a part of our initial business combination are difficult to predict and therefore you should be cautious in evaluating any potential negative impact to your investment as a result of such an acquisition. For example: complex issues of taxation arise within a multi-jurisdictional business; other increased costs as a result of operating under more than one legal regime; tariffs, customs, or other barriers to trade could exist today or could arise in the future; capital controls such as the restriction of cross-border currency exchanges; currency valuation risk; increased payment settlement times; differing economies and thus interest rate risk; differing rates of inflation; differing laws concerning enforceability of judgments; differing laws concerning corporate governance and the responsibilities of management to the corporation and ultimately the shareholders and perhaps an entirely different legal regime; corruption; other cultural differences; language differences; force majeure events, civil disturbances, warfare; deterioration of relations with the United States; government confiscation of assets; and other issues that are difficult to predict.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to mitigate every and all risks. As a result, our performance and hence our financial condition could degrade.

If our management following our initial business combination is unfamiliar with U.S. securities laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws, which could lead to various regulatory issues.

Following our initial business combination, any or all of our management could resign from their positions as officers of the Company, and the management of the target business at the time of the business combination could remain in place. Management of the target business may not be familiar with U.S. securities laws. If new management is unfamiliar with U.S. securities laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations.

We may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete a business combination, which may adversely affect our leverage and financial condition and thus negatively impact the value of our shareholders’ investment in us.
