 founder shares carry voting rights in connection with the Proposals, and we have been informed by our Sponsor that it intends to vote in favor of the Proposals. Pursuant to a letter agreement entered into with us by our Sponsor and each of our officers and directors in connection with our IPO, our Sponsor, directors and officers and their respective affiliates are not entitled to redeem any founder shares held by them in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal. Our Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or any of their respective affiliates may purchase public shares or warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the Annual Meeting. Any such purchases that are completed after the record date for the Annual Meeting may include an agreement with a selling shareholder that such shareholder, for so long as he, she or it remains the record holder of the shares in question, will vote in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal and/or will not exercise such shareholder’s redemption rights with respect to the shares so purchased. Any such privately negotiated purchases may be effected at purchase prices that are below or in excess of the per-share pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. Additionally, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), our Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or any of their respective affiliates may enter into transactions with investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal or not redeem their public shares. However, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions. None of the funds held in the Trust Account will be used to purchase public shares or warrants in such transactions. If they engage in such transactions, they will be restricted from making any such purchases when they are in possession of any material nonpublic information not disclosed to the seller or if such purchases are prohibited by Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). We do not currently anticipate that such purchases, if any, would constitute a tender offer subject to the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act or a going-private transaction subject to the going-private rules 6 under the Exchange Act; however, if the purchasers determine at the time of any such purchases that the purchases are subject to such rules, the purchasers will comply with such rules. Any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchasers are subject to such reporting requirements. Additionally
