 our sponsor’s and our affiliates’ securities and compensation. If we agree to pay our sponsor, officers or directors, advisors, or our or their affiliates a finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business combination, such persons may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination as any such fee may not be paid unless we consummate such business combination. We may also engage our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as an advisor or otherwise in connection with our initial business combination and certain other transactions and pay such person or entity a salary or fee in an amount that constitutes a market standard for comparable transactions. Any such salary or fee would be paid using available working capital funds (including proceeds from any promissory notes issued by us and funds released from the trust account upon completion of our initial business combination), but would not in any event be paid out of the Administrative Services Fee. As of the date of this prospectus, no arrangements are currently in place with respect to the payment of any finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business combination, or with respect to the payment of a salary or other fee to our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as an advisor or otherwise in connection with our initial business combination or any other transaction. Additionally, following consummation of a business combination, members of our management team will be entitled to reimbursement for any out -of-pocketexpenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination. As a result, there may be actual or potential material conflicts of interest between members of our management team, our sponsor and its affiliates on the one hand, and purchasers in this offering on the other. In addition to the foregoing, our officers and directors will receive indirect interests in the founder shares held by the sponsor as compensation for their services as officers and directors of the Company. Each of our directors will receive for their services as a director an indirect interest in the founder shares through membership interests in our sponsor. Each director will receive an indirect interest in 50,000 founder shares through membership interests in our sponsor. As a result of their indirect interest in the founder shares through membership interests in our sponsor, our management team may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination. As a result, there may be actual or potential material conflicts
