 $0.004 per share, in exchange for the issuance of 6,543,103 founders shares to the sponsor. Such securities were issued in connection with our organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The number of founder shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of this offering would be a maximum of 17,250,000 units if the underwriter’s over -allotmentoption is exercised in full and therefore that such founder shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares after this offering. Up to 853,448 of these shares will be surrendered for no consideration depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over -allotmentis exercised. Our sponsor is an accredited investor for purposes of Rule 501 of Regulation D. Each of the equity holders in our sponsor is an accredited investor under Rule 501 of Regulation D. The sole business of our sponsor is to act as the company’s sponsor in connection with this offering.
