We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, our officers or directors, the Sponsor Manager or the non-managing sponsor investors (or their respective affiliates or related entities) or making the acquisition through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with our sponsor, our officers or directors, the Sponsor Manager or non-managing sponsor investors (or their respective affiliates or related entities). In connection with our initial business combination (including in the event that we seek to complete our initial business combination with a target that is affiliated (as defined in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) with our sponsor or our officers or directors (or their respective affiliates or related entities)), we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or from an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.

Nasdaq rules require that our initial business combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the trust account (excluding taxes payable) at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business combination. Our board of directors will make the determination as to the fair market value of our initial business combination. If our board of directors
is not able to independently determine the fair market value of our initial business combination, we will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm.

We do not currently intend to purchase multiple businesses in unrelated industries in conjunction with our initial business combination, although there is no assurance that will be the case. We have also agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination without the prior consent of our sponsor. Subject to these requirements, our management will have virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting one or more prospective target businesses, although we will not be permitted to effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.
