 initial business combination with a business located in the PRC and if our new auditor is located in China, with operations in and who performs audit operations of registrants in China, a jurisdiction where the PCAOB has been unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the relevant authorities, the work of our new auditor as it relates to those operations may not be inspected by the PCAOB, which currently is the case. If our securities are delisted and prohibited from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over the counter trading market in the U.S. due to the PCAOB not being able to conduct inspections or full investigations of our auditor, it would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with potential delisting and prohibition would have a negative impact on the price of our securities.

On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB signed the SOP with the CSRC and the Ministry of Finance of the PRC governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. The agreement includes detailed and specific commitments from the CSRC that would allow PCAOB inspections and investigations meeting U.S. standards, such as (i) independent discretion by the PCAOB to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation in accordance with the Sarbanes -OxleyAct; (ii) direct access by the PCAOB to interview or take testimony from all personnel of the audit firms whose issuer engagements are being inspected or investigated; (iii
