 provide for the business we select. We intend to find a company that generates public market enthusiasm once an acquisition is announced. |

| ● | Barriers to Entry: We will be looking at what, if any, barriers to entry there are for new competitors to come into the market or for current competitors to offer similar products. Ideally, the company we select will have a high barrier to entry, enabling stronger competitive advantages for the company we acquire. |

| ● | Competitive Advantages: We will be examining the competitive advantages a company has established within its industry, and how these advantages enable the business to gain excess market share, higher margins, and higher demand, among other advantages. |

| ● | Public Markets Management Team: We will be searching for a company that will have a management team ready for the public markets and that can operate with our team as advisors. |

| ● | Leveraging our management team’s experiences: We intend to find a business that will complement our team’s expertise and enable our team to contribute significant value to its operations. |

| ● | Other criteria: In evaluating prospective targets, we may also consider criteria such as general financial condition, capital requirements, internal structure, corporate governance, the impact of current and future regulations, licensing and other market and geographic-specific conditions. |

In evaluating a prospective target business, we expect to conduct a thorough due diligence review that will encompass, among other things, (i) meetings with incumbent management, and if applicable, advisors, (ii) document reviews, (iii) interviews with various stakeholders, including, but not limited to, employees, customers and suppliers, (iv) on-site inspection of facilities, and (v) reviewing financial, operational, legal and other information that will be made available to us.

Our above-mentioned acquisition criteria and due diligence processes are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular initial business combination may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general criteria and guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. In the event that we decide to enter into our initial business combination with a target business that does not meet the above criteria and guidelines, we will disclose that the target business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial business combination, which, as discussed in this prospectus, would be in the form of tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials that we would file with the SEC.
