 whether or not we will
proceed with any potential Business Combination. There is no certainty, however, that any of our key personnel will remain with us after
the completion of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that any of our key personnel will remain in senior management
or advisory positions with us. The determination as to whether any of our key personnel will remain with us will be made at the time
of our initial Business Combination.

We
may have a limited ability to assess the management of a prospective target business and, as a result, may affect our initial Business
Combination with a target business whose management may not have the skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company.

When
evaluating the desirability of effecting our initial Business Combination with a prospective target business, our ability to assess the
target business’ management may be limited due to a lack of time, resources or information. Our assessment of the capabilities
of the target’s management, therefore, may prove to be incorrect and such management may lack the skills, qualifications or abilities
we suspected. Should the target’s management not possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to manage a public company,
the operations and profitability of the post-combination business may be negatively impacted. Accordingly, any shareholders who choose
to remain shareholders following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares. Such shareholders are
unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.

The
officers and directors of an acquisition candidate may resign upon completion of our initial Business Combination. The departure of a
target’s key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business. The role of an
acquisition candidates’ key personnel upon the completion of our initial Business Combination cannot be ascertained at this time.
Although we contemplate that certain members of an acquisition candidate’s management team will remain associated with the acquisition
candidate following our initial Business Combination, it is possible that members of the management of an acquisition candidate will
not wish to remain in place.

If
we effect our initial Business Combination with a company with operations or opportunities outside of the United States, we would be
subject to a variety of additional risks that may negatively impact our operations.

If
we effect our initial Business Combination with a company with operations or opportunities outside of the United States, we would be
subject to any special considerations or risks associated with companies operating in an international setting, including any of the
following:
