The holders of these securities, having at least $25 million in the aggregate, will be entitled to make up to three demands for underwritten offerings, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination and rights to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Pursuant to such registration rights agreement, we will agree that, within 30 days after the consummation of an initial business combination, we will file with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale or other disposition of such securities. We will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after the initial filing of the registration statement.
