| | Item 1. | Business.
| | ------- | ---------



General



We are a blank check company incorporated as a
Delaware corporation on April 13, 2021 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this report as our “initial
business combination.” We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue to date. Based on our business activities,
we are a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) because we have no operations
and nominal assets consisting almost entirely of cash.



On December 14, 2021, we consummated our initial
public offering (our “IPO”) of 23,000,000 units (the “units”), each unit consisting of one share of Class A common
stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) and one-half of one warrant of the Company,
each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share (subject to adjustment).
The 23,000,000 units sold in our IPO include 3,000,000 units sold to BofA Securities, Inc., the underwriter for our IPO (the “underwriter”),
pursuant to the underwriter’s full exercise of its option under the underwriting agreement for our IPO to purchase up to 3,000,000
additional units solely to cover over-allotments. The units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, and our IPO generated gross proceeds
of $230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of our IPO, we consummated a private placement (the “Private Placement”)
with our sponsor of an aggregate of 11,700,000 warrants (the “private placement warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per private
placement warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $11,700,000.
On December 14, 2021, a total of $234,600,000 of the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account
(the “Trust Account”) established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. The net proceeds deposited into the Trust Account remain on deposit
in the Trust Account earning interest and are available for a business combination, assuming no redemptions, after payment of $8,050,000
of deferred underwriting fees, before fees and expenses associated with our initial business combination.



Except with respect to interest earned on the
funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay our tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay
dissolution expenses), the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of
(a) the completion of our initial business combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection
with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of our
obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to have their public shares redeemed in connection with our initial business
combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during
any extended time we have to consummate our initial business combination beyond June 14, 2023 as a result of a stockholder vote to
amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (an “Extension Period”) or (ii) with respect to any other
provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (c) the redemption of all of our
public shares if we are unable to complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, subject
to applicable law. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may only be invested in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185
days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.

Our sponsor,
Southport Acquisition Sponsor LLC, is a Delaware limited liability company that is owned by Jeb Spencer, our Chief Executive Officer,
and other investors, including certain of our directors. Our sponsor is controlled by Mr. Spencer and Mr. Jared Stone, the Chairman of
our board of directors.



While efforts to identify a target business may span many industries, our focus will be predominantly within the financial software space
with particular focus on mortgage and real estate verticals in the United States. We plan to look for a leading financial services software
or Financial Technology (“FinTech”) partner, with particular focus on mortgage and real estate software verticals, that generates
between $50 million and $100 million of revenues and is valued between $1 billion and $2 billion.



Acquisition Criteria



The maturity and judgment of our management team
will guide our acquisition process. When evaluating candidate companies, we expect to use the following non-exclusive guidelines and characteristics
for determining opportunities:



1. Competitive Advantage



We will look for mission-critical companies with
leading position, technology and product capability. Our focus will be on businesses whose products or services are differentiated which
creates strong barriers to entry and opportunity to create value by implementing best practices. We will opportunistically pursue a business
with proven technology and market acceptance and that can be scaled for additional growth in the future.



2. Promising Financial Model



We expect to target a business that has historically
been an efficient, leading provider of Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) technologies. We will look to invest in companies that
we believe have a large market opportunity for growth over the next five years driven by a differentiated strategy and a defensible
competitive advantage.



3. Experienced Management Team



Our team has an accomplished track record and deep
understanding of the financial software industry. We believe our management team’s multifaceted expertise in assessing a target’s
technology and potential will be an advantage in this industry. We intend to seek a business whose performance we believe we can improve
by leveraging our transactional, financial, managerial and investment experience, as well as our extensive networks and insights. We believe
our management team has the right skills and capabilities to enhance a target’s results and consolidate its competitive positions
in its sectors.



4. Favorable Competitive Environment in an Attractive Growing
Market



We will seek companies operating in growing industries
with favorable dynamics and potential for consolidation. While we will target businesses with large markets with the potential to grow
substantially through organic means, we will prioritize those targets that have platform opportunities to expand their addressable markets.
By targeting strategic, product, customer segment and technology acquisitions, we expect our potential target business will be positioned
to use its public currency and cash position to ideally generate accretive transactions that benefit shareholders.



5. Attractive Terms



We intend to focus on a target business that
gives our investors access to market-leading technologies, exceptional management and a large market opportunity at an attractive
price. We believe an initial business combination with us would offer private companies seeking access to the public markets and
liquidity for their investors and shareholders an attractive alternative to a traditional initial public offering. By focusing on a
partnership with the potential to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns, we believe we have the potential to be a preferred
partner for leading financial software companies.





3







These guidelines and characteristics are important,
but not exhaustive. The merits of any particular initial business combination will be based on these guidelines and characteristics, as
well as other considerations that our management team may deem relevant. Ultimately, we believe our management team is well suited to
identify and execute on acquisition opportunities that have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders.



In the event that we decide to enter into our initial
business combination with a target business that does not meet the above guidelines and characteristics, we will disclose the same in
our stockholder communications related to our initial business combination, which, as discussed in this report, would be in the form of
proxy solicitation materials or tender offer documents that we will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).



In addition to any potential business candidates
we may identify on our own, we anticipate that other target business candidates will be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated
sources, including investment market participants, private equity funds, and large business enterprises seeking to divest non-core assets
or divisions.



Acquisition Process



In evaluating a prospective target business, we
expect to conduct an extensive due diligence review which will encompass, as applicable and among other things, commercial and industry
due diligence, meetings with incumbent management and employees, document reviews, interviews of customers and suppliers, inspection of
facilities, and a review of financial and other information about the target and its industry. To help facilitate this evaluation, we
will rely on input from our management team, sponsor and directors, including third party diligence providers if and as necessary.



So long as we maintain a listing for our securities
on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), our initial business combination must occur with one or more businesses or assets
with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting
discount held in the Trust Account). We refer to this as the “80% of net assets test.” If our securities are no longer listed
on the NYSE, we will not be obligated to satisfy the 80% of net assets test. Our board of directors will make the determination as to
the fair market value of our initial business combination. The fair market value of the target businesses or assets will be determined
by our board of directors based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community (such as actual and potential
sales, earnings, cash flow and/or book value). Even though our board of directors will rely on generally accepted standards, our board
of directors will have discretion to select the standards employed. In addition, the application of the standards generally involves a
substantial degree of judgment. Accordingly, investors will be relying on the business judgment of our board of directors in evaluating
the fair market value of the target businesses or assets. The proxy solicitation materials or tender offer documents used by us in connection
with any proposed initial business combination will provide public stockholders with our analysis of our satisfaction of the 80% of net
assets test, as well as the basis for our determinations. If our board of directors is not able to independently determine the fair market
value of the target businesses or assets, we will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm which is a member of FINRA
or a valuation or appraisal firm with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. While we consider it unlikely that our board will
not be able to make an independent determination of the fair market value of any applicable target business or asset, it may be unable
to do so if the board is less familiar or experienced with such target business or asset, there is a significant amount of uncertainty
as to the value of the target assets or the prospects of the target business, including if such business is at an early stage of development,
operations or growth, or if the anticipated transaction involves a complex financial analysis or other specialized skills and our board
determines that outside expertise would be helpful or necessary in conducting such analysis. Since any opinion, if obtained, would merely
state that the fair market value of the target businesses or assets meets the 80% threshold, unless such opinion includes material information
regarding the valuation of a target business or asset or the consideration to be provided, it is not anticipated that copies of such opinion
would be distributed to our stockholders. However, if required under applicable law, any proxy statement that we deliver to stockholders
and file with the SEC in connection with a proposed initial business combination will include such opinion.





4







We anticipate structuring our initial
business combination so that the post-transaction company in which our public stockholders own shares will own or acquire 100% of
the equity interests or assets of the target business or businesses. We may, however, structure our initial business combination
such that the post-transaction company owns or acquires less than 100% of such interests or assets of the target business or
businesses for the post-transaction company to meet certain objectives of the target management team or stockholders or for other
reasons, but we will only complete such business combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the
outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires an interest in the target or assets sufficient for it not to be
required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Even if the post-transaction company owns or
acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target, our stockholders prior to the business combination may collectively own
a minority interest in the post-transaction company, depending on valuations ascribed to the target and us in the business
combination. For example, we could pursue a transaction in which we issue a substantial number of new shares of Class A common stock
in exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock of a target or issue a substantial number of new shares of Class A common stock
to third parties in connection with financing our initial business combination. In this case, we would acquire a 100% controlling
interest in the target. However, as a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new shares of Class A common stock, our
stockholders immediately prior to our initial business combination could own less than a majority of our outstanding shares of Class
A common stock subsequent to our initial business combination. If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target
business or businesses are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company, the portion of such business or businesses that is
owned or acquired is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% of net assets test. If the initial business combination involves
more than one target business, the 80% of net assets test will be based on the aggregate value of all of the target businesses and
we will treat the target businesses together as the initial business combination for the purposes of a tender offer or for seeking
stockholder approval, as applicable.



If our initial business combination is paid for
using equity, equity-linked or debt securities or loans or not all of the funds released from the Trust Account are used for the aforementioned
purposes or redemption of our public shares, we may apply the balance of the cash released to us from the Trust Account for general corporate
purposes, including for maintenance or expansion of operations of post-transaction businesses, for payment of principal of or interest
on indebtedness incurred in completing our initial business combination, to fund the purchase of other companies or for working capital.



We may seek to raise additional funds in connection
with the completion of our initial business combination through an offering of equity, equity-linked or debt securities or loans, and
we may effectuate our initial business combination using the proceeds of such offerings or loans rather than using the amounts held in
the Trust Account. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would expect to complete such financing only simultaneously
with the completion of our business combination. In the case of our initial business combination funded with assets other than the Trust
Account assets, our tender offer documents or proxy materials disclosing the business combination would disclose the terms of the financing
and, only if required by law or we decide to do so for business or other reasons, we would seek stockholder approval of such financing.
There are no prohibitions on our ability to raise funds through an offering of equity, equity-linked or debt securities or loans in connection
with our initial business combination. At this time, we are not a party to any arrangement or understanding with any third party with
respect to raising any additional funds through the sale of securities or otherwise.



Redemption Rights for Public Stockholders upon Completion of Our
Initial Business Combination



We will provide our public stockholders with the
opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per share price,
payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation
of our initial business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of permitted withdrawals for
tax), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. At completion of our initial
business combination, we will be required to purchase any public shares properly delivered for redemption and not withdrawn. The amount
in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.20 per public share. The per share amount we will distribute to investors who
properly redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting fees we will pay to the underwriter. However, the
per-share redemption amount received by public stockholders could be less than the $10.20 per public share initially held in the Trust
Account due to claims of creditors (see “Risk Factors—If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust
Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20 per share”
and other risk factors herein). The redemption right will include the requirement that any beneficial owner on whose behalf a redemption
right is being exercised must identify itself in order to validly redeem its shares. There will be no redemption rights upon completion
of our initial business combination with respect to our warrants. Our sponsor, directors and officers have entered into a letter agreement
with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and any public shares
held by them in connection with the completion of our initial business combination.





5







Manner of Conducting Redemptions



We will provide our public stockholders with the
opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of our initial business combination either: (1) in connection
with a stockholder meeting called to approve the business combination; or (2) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether we
will seek stockholder approval of a proposed business combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion,
and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require
us to seek stockholder approval under applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement. Asset acquisitions and stock purchases would
not typically require stockholder approval while direct mergers with our company where we do not survive and any transactions where we
issue more than 20% of our outstanding common stock or seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation would typically
require stockholder approval. If we structure a business combination transaction with a target business in a manner that requires stockholder
approval, we will not have discretion as to whether to seek a stockholder vote to approve the proposed business combination. We may conduct
redemptions of our public shares without a stockholder vote unless stockholder approval is required by applicable law or stock exchange
listing requirement, or we decide to seek stockholder approval for business or other reasons. If a stockholder vote is not required and
we do not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, we will, pursuant to our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation:



| | · | conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, which regulate issuer tender offers; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination which contain substantially the same
financial and other information about the initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of
the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction
is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement, or we decide to obtain stockholder approval for business or other
reasons, we will, pursuant to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation:



| | · | conduct the redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the
solicitation of proxies, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | file proxy materials with the SEC.
| | - | ----------------------------------



Submission of Our Initial Business Combination to a Stockholder
Vote



In the event that we seek stockholder approval
of our initial business combination, we will distribute proxy materials and, in connection therewith, provide our public stockholders
with the redemption rights described above upon completion of the initial business combination.



If we seek stockholder approval, we will complete
our initial business combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the business
combination. A quorum for such meeting will consist of the holders present in person or by proxy of shares of outstanding capital stock
of the company representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the company entitled to vote
at such meeting. Our sponsor, directors and officers will count towards this quorum and have agreed to vote any founder shares and any
public shares held by them in favor of our initial business combination. These quorum and voting thresholds and agreements may make it
more likely that we will consummate our initial business combination. Each public stockholder may elect to redeem its public shares without
voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. In addition, our sponsor, directors
and officers have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect
to any founder shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the completion of a business combination.

Limitation on Redemption upon Completion of our Initial Business
Combination if We Seek Stockholder Approval



Notwithstanding the foregoing, if we seek
stockholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions of our public shares in connection with
our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides
that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting
in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption
rights with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares, without our prior consent, which we refer to as the
 “Excess Shares.” We believe this restriction will discourage stockholders from accumulating large blocks of shares, and
subsequent attempts by such holders to use their ability to exercise their redemption rights against a proposed business combination
as a means to force us or our affiliates to purchase their shares at a significant premium to the then-current market price or on
other undesirable terms. Absent this provision, a public stockholder holding more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares
could threaten to exercise its redemption rights if such holder’s shares are not purchased by us or our affiliates at a
premium to the then-current market price or on other undesirable terms. By limiting our stockholders’ ability to redeem no
more than 15% of the public shares, we believe we will limit the ability of a small group of stockholders to unreasonably attempt to
block our ability to complete our initial business combination, particularly in connection with a business combination with a target
that requires as a closing condition that we have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash. However, we would not be
restricting our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their public shares (including Excess Shares) for or against our initial
business combination.



Redemption of Public Shares and Liquidation if No Initial Business
Combination



Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
provides that we will have only until June 14, 2023, unless an Extension Period applies, to complete our initial business combination.
If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within such period, we will: (1) cease all operations, except for the purpose
of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds
therefor, redeem the public shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust
Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of permitted withdrawals for tax and up to $100,000 of
interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish
public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject
to applicable law; and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders
and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of
creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to
our warrants, and our warrants will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during
any Extension Period.



Corporate Information



Our offices are located at 1745 Grand Avenue, Del
Mar, California 92014, and our telephone number is (917) 503-9722.



We maintain a corporate website at https://www.southportone.com. The information that is or may be contained on or accessible through
our corporate website or any other website that we may maintain is not part of this report and is not incorporated herein by reference.



We are required to file Annual Reports on Form
10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q with the SEC on a regular basis, and are required to disclose certain material events in Current
Reports on Form 8-K. These reports are available on our website.



Status as a Public Company



We believe our structure makes us an attractive
business combination partner to target businesses. As an existing public company, we offer target businesses an alternative to the traditional
initial public offering through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business
combination. In this situation, the owners of the target business would exchange their shares of stock in the target business for shares
of our Class A common stock or for a combination of shares of our Class A common stock and cash, allowing us to tailor the consideration
to the specific needs of the sellers. Although there are various costs and obligations associated with being a public company, we believe
target businesses will find this method a more certain and cost effective method to becoming a public company than the typical initial
public offering. In a typical initial public offering, there are additional expenses incurred in marketing, road show and public reporting
efforts that may not be present to the same extent in connection with a business combination with us.



Furthermore, once a proposed business
combination is completed, the target business will have effectively become public, whereas an initial public offering is always
subject to the underwriter’s ability to complete the offering, as well as general market conditions, which could delay or
prevent the offering from occurring. Once public, we believe the target business would then have greater access to capital and an
additional means of providing management incentives consistent with stockholders’ interests. It can offer further benefits by
augmenting a company’s profile among potential new customers and vendors and aid in attracting talented employees.

We are an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from
various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including,
but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and
proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder
approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. These exemptions will be available to us for a period of five years
following the completion of our IPO or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier. Accordingly,
the reports we file with the SEC may not be comparable to those of other public companies and our stockholders may not have access to
certain information they may deem important. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active
trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.



In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides
that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the
Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay
the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage
of the benefits of this extended transition period. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply
with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.



We will remain an emerging growth company until
the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO, (b) in which we
have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means
the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of such fiscal year’s
second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior
three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.



Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting
company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure
obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting
company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds
$250 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter and (2) our annual revenues equaled or exceeded $100 million during
such completed fiscal year or the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end
of that year’s second fiscal quarter. To the extent we take advantage of such reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison
of our financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.



Competition



In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target
business for our initial business combination, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar
to ours, including other blank check companies, private equity groups and leveraged buyout funds, public companies and operating businesses
seeking strategic acquisitions. Many of these entities are well-established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business
combinations directly or through affiliates. Additionally, the number of blank check companies looking for business combination targets
has increased significantly in recent years and many of these blank check companies are sponsored by entities or persons that have significant
experience with completing business combinations. Moreover, many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and
other resources than us. Our ability to acquire larger target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent
limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business. Furthermore, our obligation to pay cash in connection
with our public stockholders who exercise their redemption rights may reduce the resources available to us for our initial business combination
and our outstanding warrants, and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses.
Any of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating an initial business combination.

Facilities



We currently maintain our executive offices at
1745 Grand Avenue, Del Mar, California 92014. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.



Employees



We currently have one officer and do not intend
to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Members of our management team are not obligated
to devote any specific number of hours to our matters. The amount of time that any such person will devote in any time period to our company
will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for our initial business combination and the current stage of the business
combination process.



| | Item 1A. | Risk Factors.
| | -------- | -------------



You should carefully consider the following
risk factors and all the other information contained in this report, including the financial statements. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations may be materially adversely affected. In that event, the
trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risk factors described below are
not necessarily exhaustive and you are encouraged to perform your own investigation with respect to us and our business.



We are a recently incorporated company with
no operating history and no revenues, and you have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective.



We are a recently incorporated company with no
operating results, and we did not commence operations until after the closing of our IPO in December 2021. Because we lack an operating
history, you have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective of completing our initial business combination
with one or more target businesses. We do not yet have any plans, arrangements or understandings with any prospective target business
concerning a business combination and may be unable to complete our initial business combination. If we fail to complete our initial business
combination, we will never generate any operating revenues.



Past performance by our management team may
not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us or of the future performance of any business we may acquire.



Information or other references herein regarding
performance by, or businesses associated with, members of our management team is presented for informational purposes only. Any past experience
and performance, including related to acquisitions, of our management team or its affiliates or of businesses associated with our management
team is not a guarantee: (1) that we will be able to successfully identify a suitable candidate for our initial business combination;
(2) of any results with respect to any initial business combination we may consummate; or (3) that we will be able to adequately assess
the risks of a potential transaction. You should not rely on the historical record and performance of our management team or its affiliates
or of businesses associated our management team as indicative of the future performance of an investment in us or the returns we will,
or are likely to, generate going forward. Further, our management team has been involved with a number of public and private companies,
which have achieved different levels of performance. An investment in us is not an investment in our sponsor or in any other entity in
which our sponsor or our management team is affiliated and does not in any way create an advisory relationship between our sponsor, our
management team or any such entity, on the one hand, and any of our stockholders, on the other hand.



Our independent registered public accounting
firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going
concern.”



As of December 31, 2021, we had $1,950,543
in cash held outside the Trust Account and a working capital of $1,010,298, respectively. Further, we expect to incur significant costs
in pursuit of our acquisition plans. Our plans to raise capital and to consummate our initial business combination may not be successful.
In addition, management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and its effect on the company’s
financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and/or search for a target company. These factors, among others, raise substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements contained elsewhere in this report do not include any
adjustments that might result from our inability to continue as a going concern.





9







Our public stockholders may not be afforded
an opportunity to vote on our initial business combination, and even if we hold a vote, holders of our founder shares will participate
in such vote, which means we may complete our initial business combination even though a majority of our public stockholders do not support
such initial business combination.



We may not hold a stockholder vote to approve our
initial business combination unless the business combination would require stockholder approval under applicable law or stock exchange
listing requirements or if we decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons. For instance, the rules of the NYSE currently
allow us to engage in a tender offer in lieu of a stockholder meeting but would still require us to obtain stockholder approval if we
were seeking to issue more than 20% of our outstanding common stock to a target business as consideration in any business combination.
Therefore, if we were structuring a business combination that required us to issue more than 20% of our outstanding common stock, we would
seek stockholder approval of such business combination. However, except as required by applicable law or stock exchange rules, the decision
as to whether we will seek stockholder approval of a proposed business combination or will allow stockholders to sell their public shares
to us in a tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors, such as the timing of
the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require us to seek stockholder approval. Even if we seek stockholder
approval, the holders of our founder shares will participate in the vote on such approval. Accordingly, we may consummate our initial
business combination even if holders of a majority of our outstanding public shares do not approve of the business combination we consummate.



If we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination, our sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, regardless
of how our public stockholders vote, and depending on the number of stockholders who vote, our sponsor, officers and directors may have
almost enough votes to approve our initial business combination based on the shares held by them.



Our sponsor, directors and officers have agreed
(and their permitted transferees will agree) to vote any founder shares and any public shares held by them in favor of our initial business
combination. As a result, in addition to our sponsor’s founder shares, we would need only 8,625,001, or 37.5% (assuming all outstanding
shares are voted) or 1,437,501, or 6.25% (assuming only the minimum number of shares representing a quorum are voted) of the 23,000,000
shares sold in our IPO to be voted in favor of a transaction in order to have our initial business combination approved. We expect that
our sponsor and its permitted transferees will own at least 20% of our outstanding shares of common stock at the time of any such stockholder
vote. Accordingly, if we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, it is more likely that the necessary stockholder
approval will be received than would be the case if our sponsor and its permitted transferees agreed to vote their founder shares in accordance
with the majority of the votes cast by our public stockholders. Although none of our sponsor, directors or officers have any current intention
to purchase our public shares, they are not restricted from doing so and there is no limit to the number of our public shares they may
purchase. If they purchase any of our public shares and retain such shares until any stockholders vote on our initial business combination,
the approval of our initial business combination by our stockholders will be even more likely.



Your only opportunity to affect the investment
decision regarding our initial business combination will be limited to the exercise of your right to redeem your public shares from us
for cash, unless we seek stockholder approval of such initial business combination.



Since our board of directors may complete our initial
business combination without seeking stockholder approval, public stockholders may not have the right or opportunity to vote on the initial
business combination. Accordingly, if we do not seek stockholder approval, your only opportunity to affect the investment decision regarding
a potential business combination may be limited to exercising your redemption rights applicable to the outstanding public shares within
the period of time (which will be at least 20 business days) set forth in our tender offer documents mailed to our public stockholders
in which we describe our initial business combination.



The ability of our public stockholders to
redeem their public shares for cash may make our financial condition and liquidity unattractive to potential business combination targets,
which may make it difficult for us to enter into a business combination with a target.



We may seek to enter into a business
combination transaction agreement with a prospective target that requires as a closing condition that we have a minimum net worth or
a certain amount of cash. If too many public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, we would not be able to meet such
closing condition and, as a result, would not be able to proceed with the business combination. The amount of the deferred
underwriting fees payable to the underwriter will not be adjusted for any public shares that are redeemed in connection with our
initial business combination and such amount of deferred underwriting fees is not available for us to use as consideration in an
initial business combination. Furthermore, in no event will we redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net
tangible assets, after payment of the deferred underwriting fees, to be less than $5,000,001 (so that we do not then become subject
to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in
the agreement relating to our initial business combination. Consequently, if accepting all properly submitted redemption requests
would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 or such greater amount necessary to satisfy a closing condition as
described above, we would not proceed with such redemption and the related business combination and may instead search for an
alternate business combination (including, potentially, with the same target). Prospective targets will be aware of these risks and,
thus, may be reluctant to enter into a business combination transaction with us. If we are able to consummate an initial business
combination, the per-share value of shares held by non-redeeming stockholders will give effect to the payment of the deferred
underwriting fees.





10







The ability of our public stockholders to
exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our public shares may not allow us to complete the most desirable business
combination or optimize our capital structure.



At the time we enter into an agreement for our
initial business combination, we will not know how many public stockholders may exercise their redemption rights and, therefore, we will
need to structure the transaction based on our expectations as to the number of public shares that will be submitted for redemption. If
our initial business combination agreement requires us to use a portion of the cash in the Trust Account to pay the purchase price or
requires us to have a minimum amount of cash at closing, we will need to reserve a portion of the cash in the Trust Account to meet such
requirements or arrange for third-party financing. In addition, if a larger number of public shares is submitted for redemption than we
initially expected, we may need to restructure the transaction to reserve a greater portion of the cash in the Trust Account or arrange
for third-party financing. Raising additional third-party financing may involve dilutive equity issuances or the incurrence of indebtedness
at higher than desirable levels. Furthermore, this dilution would increase to the extent that the anti-dilution provision of the Class B
common stock results in the issuance of shares of Class A common stock on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the
Class B common stock at the time of our initial business combination. In addition, the amount of deferred underwriting fees payable
to the underwriter is not required to be adjusted for any public shares that are redeemed in connection with an initial business combination.
The above considerations may limit our ability to complete the most desirable business combination available to us or optimize our capital
structure.



The ability of our public stockholders to
exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our public shares could increase the probability that our initial business
combination would be unsuccessful and that you would have to wait for liquidation in order to redeem your public shares



If our initial business combination agreement requires
us to use a portion of the cash in the Trust Account to pay the purchase price, or requires us to have a minimum amount of cash at closing,
the probability that our initial business combination would be unsuccessful increases. If our initial business combination is unsuccessful,
you would not be entitled to receive your pro rata portion of the Trust Account until we liquidate the Trust Account. If you are
in need of immediate liquidity, you could attempt to sell your public shares in the open market; however, at such time our Class A
common stock may trade at a discount to the pro rata amount per share in the Trust Account. In either situation, you may suffer a
material loss on your investment or lose the benefit of funds expected to be expended in connection with the redemption of our public
shares until we liquidate or you are able to sell your public shares in the open market.



The requirement that we complete our initial
business combination by June 14, 2023, unless an Extension Period applies, may give potential target businesses leverage over us in negotiating
a business combination and may limit the time we have in which to conduct due diligence on potential business combination targets, in
particular as we approach our dissolution deadline, which could undermine our ability to complete our initial business combination on
terms that would produce value for our stockholders.



Any potential target business with which we enter
into negotiations concerning a business combination will be aware that we must complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023,
unless an Extension Period applies. Consequently, such target business may obtain leverage over us in negotiating a business combination,
knowing that if we do not complete our initial business combination with that particular target business, we may be unable to complete
our initial business combination with any target business. This risk will increase as we get closer to the timeframe described above.
In addition, we may have limited time to conduct due diligence and may enter into our initial business combination on terms that we would
have rejected upon a more comprehensive investigation.





11







We may not be able to complete our initial
business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, in which case we would cease all operations, except for the purpose
of winding up and we would redeem our public shares and liquidate, in which case our public stockholders may receive only $10.20 per share,
or less than such amount in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless.



Our sponsor, officers and directors have agreed
that we must complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023, unless an Extension Period applies. We may not be able to find
a suitable target business and complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period. Our ability to complete our
initial business combination may be negatively impacted by general market conditions, volatility in the capital and debt markets and the
other risks described herein. For example, while the extent of the impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic on
us will depend on future developments, it could limit our ability to complete our initial business combination, including as a result
of increased market volatility, decreased market liquidity and third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to us or at
all. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic may have negatively impacted, or may in the future negatively impact, businesses we may seek
to acquire.



If we have not completed our initial business combination
within such time period, we will: (1) cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably
possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem the public shares, at a per
share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds
held in the Trust Account (net of permitted withdrawals for tax and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by
the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders
(including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (3) as promptly as reasonably
possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate,
subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable
law. In such case, our public stockholders may receive only $10.20 per share, or less than $10.20 per share, on the redemption of their
public shares, and our warrants will expire worthless. Please see “— If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds
held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20
per share” and other risk factors herein.



If the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private
Placement not being held in the Trust Account are insufficient, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business
or businesses and complete our initial business combination and we will depend on loans from our management team or our sponsor or any
of their respective affiliates to fund our search, to pay our taxes and to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable
to obtain such loans, we may be unable to complete our initial business combination.



Our search for a business combination, and
any target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic
and the status of debt and equity markets.



The COVID-19 pandemic has in the past adversely
affected the economies and financial markets worldwide, and could materially and adversely affect the business of any potential target
business with which we consummate a business combination. Furthermore, we may be unable to complete a business combination if continued
concerns relating to COVID-19 continue to restrict travel or limit the ability to have meetings with potential investors or the target
company’s personnel, vendors and services providers in order to negotiate and consummate a transaction in a timely manner, or if
the COVID-19 pandemic causes a prolonged economic downturn. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on businesses, and the inability to accurately
predict the future impact of the pandemic on businesses, has also made determinations and negotiations of valuation more difficult, which
could make it more difficult to consummate a business combination transaction.



The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our search
for a business combination will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information
which may emerge concerning the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic or treat
its impact, among others. If the disruptions posed by the COVID-19 pandemic or other matters of global concern continue for an extensive
period of time, our ability to consummate our initial business combination, or the operations of a target business with which we ultimately
consummate our initial business combination, may be materially adversely affected.



In addition, our ability to consummate a transaction
may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be materially adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic
and other events, including as a result of increased market volatility, decreased market liquidity and third-party financing being available
on terms acceptable to us or at all.



Finally, the COVID-19 pandemic and other events
may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risk factors described in this “Risk Factors” section, such as those
related to the market for our securities.





12







As the number of special purpose
acquisition companies evaluating targets increases, attractive targets may become scarcer and there may be more competition for
attractive targets. This could increase the cost of our initial business combination and could even result in our inability to find
a target or to consummate an initial business combination.



In recent years, the number of special purpose
acquisition companies that have been formed has increased substantially. Many potential targets for special purpose acquisition companies
have already entered into an initial business combination, and there are still many special purpose acquisition companies preparing for
an initial public offering, as well as many such companies currently in registration. As a result, at times, fewer attractive targets
may be available to consummate an initial business combination.



In addition, because there are more special purpose
acquisition companies seeking to enter into an initial business combination with available targets, the competition for available targets
with attractive fundamentals or business models may increase, which could cause targets companies to demand improved financial terms.
Attractive deals could also become scarcer for other reasons, such as economic or industry sector downturns, geopolitical tensions, or
increases in the cost of additional capital, or the imposition of unattractive covenants to obtain such capital, needed to close business
combinations or operate targets post-business combination. This could increase the cost of, delay or otherwise complicate or frustrate
our ability to find and consummate an initial business combination, and may result in our inability to consummate an initial business
combination on terms favorable to our investors altogether.



Changes in the market for directors and officers
liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate and complete an initial business combination.



In recent months, the market for directors
and officers liability insurance for special purpose acquisition companies has changed in ways adverse to us and our management team.
Fewer insurance companies are offering quotes for directors and officers liability coverage, the premiums charged for such policies have
generally increased and the terms of such policies have generally become less favorable. These trends may continue into the future.



The increased cost and decreased availability of
directors and officers liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate and complete an initial
business combination. In order to obtain directors and officers liability insurance or modify its coverage as a result of becoming a public
company, the post-business combination entity might need to incur greater expense and/or accept less favorable terms. Furthermore, any
failure to obtain adequate directors and officers liability insurance could have an adverse impact on the post-business combination’s
ability to attract and retain qualified officers and directors.



In addition, after completion of any initial business
combination, our directors and officers could be subject to potential liability from claims arising from conduct alleged to have occurred
prior to such initial business combination. As a result, in order to protect our directors and officers, the post-business combination
entity may need to purchase additional insurance with respect to any such claims (“run-off insurance”). The need for run-off
insurance would be an added expense for the post-business combination entity and could interfere with or frustrate our ability to consummate
an initial business combination on terms favorable to our investors.



If we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination, our sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or any of their respective affiliates may elect to purchase public shares
or public warrants from the public, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float”
of our common stock.



If we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer
rules, our sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or any of their respective affiliates may purchase public shares or public warrants
or a combination thereof in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our
initial business combination, although they are under no obligation or other duty to do so.



Such a purchase may include a contractual
acknowledgement that such public stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares is no longer the beneficial owner
thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that our sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or
any of their respective affiliates purchase public shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have
already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling public stockholders would be required to revoke their prior
elections to redeem their shares. The price per share paid in any such transaction may be different than the amount per share a
public stockholder would receive if it elected to redeem its public shares in connection with our initial business combination. The
purpose of such purchases could be to vote such shares in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of
obtaining stockholder approval of our initial business combination or to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target
that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where
it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of such purchases could be to vote such shares in favor of
the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of our initial business combination
or to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of
cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The
purpose of any such purchases of public warrants could be to reduce the number of such public warrants outstanding or to vote such
public warrants on any matters submitted to the warrant holders for approval in connection with our initial business combination.
Any such purchases of our securities may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have
been possible. 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.





13







In addition, if such purchases are made, the public
 “float” of our Class A common stock and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making
it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.



Further, at any time at or prior to our initial
business combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), our sponsor, directors,
or officers 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 our initial business combination or not redeem their public shares.



If a stockholder fails to receive notice
of our offer to redeem our public shares in connection with our initial business combination despite our compliance with the tender offer
rules or proxy rules, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.



We will comply with the tender offer rules or proxy
rules, as applicable, when conducting redemptions in connection with our initial business combination. Despite our compliance with these
rules, if a stockholder fails to receive our tender offer or proxy materials, as applicable, such stockholder may not become aware of
the opportunity to redeem its public shares. In addition, the tender offer documents or proxy materials, as applicable, that we will furnish
to holders of our public shares in connection with our initial business combination will describe the various procedures that must be
complied with in order to validly tender or redeem public shares. For example, we may require our public stockholders seeking to exercise
their redemption rights, whether they are record holders or hold their shares in “street name,” to either tender their certificates
to our transfer agent prior to the date set forth in the tender offer or proxy materials documents mailed to such holders, or up to two
business days prior to the initially scheduled vote on the proposal to approve the initial business combination in the event we distribute
proxy materials, or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically. In addition, we will require that beneficial holders
identify themselves. In the event that a stockholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed.



You will not have any rights or interests
in funds from the Trust Account, except under certain limited circumstances. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced
to sell your public shares or warrants, potentially at a loss.



Our public stockholders will be entitled to receive
funds from the Trust Account only upon the earlier to occur of: (1) the completion of our initial business combination, and then
only in connection with those public shares that such stockholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein;
(2) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to have
their public shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to provide for the redemption of our public shares
in connection with an initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination
by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, or with respect to any other provision relating to stockholder rights or pre-initial
business combination activity; and (3) the redemption of all of our public shares if we are unable to complete our initial business
combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, subject to applicable law and as further described herein. In addition, if
we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the prescribed time period for any reason, compliance with Delaware law
may require that we submit a plan of dissolution to our then-existing stockholders for approval prior to the distribution of the proceeds
held in the Trust Account. In that case, public stockholders may be forced to wait beyond June 14, 2023 or longer to the extent there
is any applicable Extension Period before they receive funds from the Trust Account. In no other circumstances will a public stockholder
have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account. Holders of warrants will not have any right to the proceeds held in the Trust
Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares or warrants,
potentially at a loss.





14







The NYSE may delist our securities from trading
on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading
restrictions.



Our units, Class A common stock and warrants
are listed on the NYSE under the symbols “PORT.U,” “PORT” and “PORT.W,” respectively. Although our
securities are currently listed on the NYSE, we cannot assure you that our securities will continue to be listed on the NYSE in the future
or prior to our initial business combination. In order to continue listing our securities on the NYSE prior to our initial business combination,
we must maintain certain financial, distribution and stock price levels. In general, we must maintain a minimum of 300 public holders.
Additionally, immediately upon the consummation of our initial business combination, we will be required to demonstrate compliance with
NYSE listing requirements that are more rigorous than the NYSE’s continued listing requirements, in order to continue to maintain
the listing of our securities on the NYSE. For instance, our stock price would generally be required to be at least $4 per share, our
global market capitalization would be required to be at least $150,000,000, the aggregate market value of our publicly-held shares would
be required to be at least $40,000,000 and we would be required to have a minimum of 400 round lot holders. We cannot assure you that
we will be able to meet those initial listing requirements at that time.



If the NYSE delists any of our securities from
trading on its exchange and we are not able to list such securities on another national securities exchange, we expect such securities
could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:



• a limited availability of market quotations
for our securities;



• reduced liquidity for our securities;



• a determination that our Class A common
stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our Class A common stock to adhere to more stringent rules
and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;



• a limited amount of news and analyst coverage;
and



• a decreased ability to issue additional
securities or obtain additional financing in the future.



The National Securities Markets Improvement Act
of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred
to as “covered securities.” Because our units, Class A common stock and warrants are listed on the NYSE, our units,
Class A common stock and warrants will qualify as covered securities under such statute. Although the states are preempted from regulating
the sale of our securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and,
if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case.
While we are not aware of a state having used these powers to prohibit or restrict the sale of securities issued by blank check companies,
other than the State of Idaho, certain state securities regulators view blank check companies unfavorably and might use these powers,
or threaten to use these powers, to hinder the sale of securities of blank check companies in their states. Further, if we were no longer
listed on the NYSE, our securities would not qualify as covered securities under such statute and we would be subject to regulation in
each state in which we offer our securities, including in connection with our initial business combination.



You will not be entitled to protections normally
afforded to investors of certain other blank check companies.



Since the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private
Placement are intended to be used to complete an initial business combination with a target business that has not been identified, we
may be deemed to be a “blank check” company under the U.S. securities laws. However, because we have net tangible assets in
excess of $5,000,000 and have filed a Current Report on Form 8-K, including an audited balance sheet of our company demonstrating this
fact, we are exempt from rules promulgated by the SEC to protect investors in blank check companies, such as Rule 419. Accordingly,
investors will not be afforded the benefits or protections of those rules. Among other things, this means we will have a longer period
of time to complete our initial business combination than do companies subject to Rule 419. Moreover, if our IPO had been subject
to Rule 419, that rule would have prohibited the release of any interest earned on funds held in the Trust Account to us unless and
until the funds in the Trust Account were released to us in connection with our completion of our initial business combination.





15







If we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination and we do not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, and if you or a “group” of stockholders
are deemed to hold in excess of 15% of our public shares, you will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of our
public shares.



If we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer
rules, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder
or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” ​(as defined under Section 13
of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of our public shares,
without our prior consent, which we refer to as the “Excess Shares.” However, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
does not restrict our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against our initial business
combination. Your inability to redeem the Excess Shares will reduce your influence over our ability to complete our initial business combination
and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in us if you sell Excess Shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you
will not receive redemption distributions with respect to the Excess Shares if we complete our initial business combination. As a result,
you will continue to hold the Excess Shares and, in order to dispose of such shares, would be required to sell your Excess Shares in open
market transactions, potentially at a loss.



Because of our limited resources and the
significant competition for business combination opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.
If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period, our public stockholders may receive only
approximately $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of the Trust Account, and our warrants will expire
worthless.



We expect to encounter intense competition from
other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including private investors (which may be individuals or investment partnerships),
other blank check companies and other entities, domestic and international, competing for the types of businesses we intend to acquire.
Many of these individuals and entities are well-established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly,
acquisitions of companies operating in or providing services to various industries. Many of these competitors possess greater technical,
human and other resources or more local industry knowledge than we do and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted
with those of many of these competitors. Additionally, the number of blank check companies looking for business combination targets has
increased compared to recent years and many of these blank check companies are sponsored by entities or persons that have significant
experience with completing business combinations While we believe there will be numerous target businesses we could potentially acquire
with the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement, our ability to compete with respect to the acquisition of certain target
businesses that are sizable will be limited by our available financial resources. Although our management team and our sponsor and any
of their respective affiliates may invest or further invest, as applicable, in us in the future, they are under no obligation or other
duty to do so.



This inherent competitive limitation gives others
an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. Furthermore, in the event we seek stockholder approval of our initial
business combination and we are obligated to pay cash for public shares that are redeemed, it will potentially reduce the resources available
to us for our initial business combination. Any of these obligations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating
and completing our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time
period, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation
of the Trust Account and our warrants will expire worthless. Please see “— If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds
held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20
per share” and other risk factors herein.



If the funds not being held in the Trust
Account are insufficient to allow us to operate until at least June 14, 2023, we may be unable to complete our initial business combination.



The funds available to us outside of the
Trust Account may not be sufficient to allow us to operate until at least June 14, 2023, assuming that our initial business
combination is not completed during that time. We expect to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans.
Management’s plan to address this need for capital through potential additional loans from certain of our affiliates are
discussed in the section of this report titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.” We believe that the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account will be sufficient to allow us to
operate until June 14, 2023; however, we cannot assure you that our estimate is accurate. Of the funds available to us, we could use
a portion of the funds available to us to pay fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business. We could also
use a portion of the funds as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision in letters of intent or
merger agreements designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or
investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we
do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into a letter of intent or merger agreement where we paid for the right to
receive exclusivity from a target business and were subsequently required to forfeit such funds (whether as a result of our breach
or otherwise), we might not have sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conduct due diligence with respect to, a target
business. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period, our public stockholders
may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of the Trust Account and our
warrants will expire worthless. Please see “—If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust
Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20 per
share” and other risk factors herein.





16







If the funds not being held in the Trust
Account are insufficient, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business or businesses and complete our
initial business combination and we will depend on loans from our management team or our sponsor or any of their respective affiliates
to fund our search, to pay our taxes and to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to obtain such loans, we may be
unable to complete our initial business combination.



Of the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private
Placement, as of December 31, 2021, only $1,950,543 was available to us outside the Trust Account to fund our working capital requirements.
If we are required to seek additional capital, we would need to borrow funds from our management team, sponsor or directors or any of
their respective affiliates to operate or may be forced to liquidate. None of our management team or our sponsor or any of their respective
affiliates is under any obligation or other duty to loan funds to us in such circumstances. Any such loans would be repaid only from funds
held outside the Trust Account or from funds released to us upon completion of our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during
any Extension Period. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period because we do not
have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In such case, our public
stockholders may receive only $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless. Please see “—If
third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received
by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20 per share” and other risk factors herein.



The securities in which we invest the proceeds
held in the Trust Account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the interest income available for payment of taxes
or reduce the value of the assets held in trust such that the per share redemption amount received by stockholders may be less than $10.20
per share.



The funds in the Trust Account may only be invested
in direct U.S. Treasury obligations having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in certain money market funds which invest only in
direct U.S. Treasury obligations. While short-term U.S. Treasury obligations currently yield a positive rate of interest, they have briefly
yielded negative interest rates in recent years. Central banks in Europe and Japan pursued interest rates below zero in recent years,
and the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve has not ruled out the possibility that it may in the future adopt similar policies
in the United States. In the event of very low or negative yields, the amount of interest income (which we may withdraw to pay income
taxes, if any) would be reduced. In the event that we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public stockholders
are entitled to receive their pro-rata share of the proceeds held in the Trust Account, plus any interest income. If the balance of the
Trust Account is reduced below $234,600,000 as a result of negative interest rates, the amount of funds in the Trust Account available
for distribution to our public stockholders may be reduced below $10.20 per share.



Subsequent to our completion of our initial
business combination, we may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have
a significant negative effect on our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and the price of our securities, which could
cause you to lose some or all of your investment.



Even if we conduct extensive due diligence on a
target business with which we combine, we cannot assure you that this diligence will identify all material issues that may be present
with a particular target business, that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence,
or that factors outside of the target business and outside of our control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, we may be
forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure our operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in
a significant negative effect on our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and the price of our securities. Even if our
due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner
not consistent with our preliminary risk analysis. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and not have an immediate impact on
our liquidity, the fact that we report charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about us or our securities.
In addition, charges of this nature may cause us to violate net worth or other covenants to which we may be subject as a result of assuming
pre-existing debt held by a target business or by virtue of our obtaining post-combination debt financing. Accordingly, any stockholders
or warrant holders who choose to remain a stockholder or warrant holder following our initial business combination could suffer a reduction
in the value of their securities. Such stockholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.





17







If we have not completed our initial business
combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, our public stockholders may be forced to wait beyond such prescribed time
period before redemption from the Trust Account.



If we have not completed our initial business combination
by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, we will distribute the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including
interest (net of permitted withdrawals for tax and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), pro rata to our
public stockholders by way of redemption and cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up of our affairs, as further described
herein. Any redemption of public stockholders from the Trust Account shall be effected prior to any voluntary winding up. If we are required
to windup, liquidate the Trust Account and distribute such amount therein, pro rata, to our public stockholders, as part of any liquidation
process, such winding up, liquidation and distribution are subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims
of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In that case, investors may be forced to wait beyond June 14, 2023 before the
redemption proceeds of the Trust Account become available to them and they receive the return of their pro rata portion of the proceeds
from the Trust Account. We have no obligation to return funds to investors prior to the redemption of our public shares or our liquidation
unless, prior thereto, we consummate our initial business combination or amend certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation and then only in cases where public stockholders have properly sought to redeem their shares of Class A common stock.
Only upon redemption of our public shares or our liquidation will public stockholders be entitled to distributions if we have not completed
our initial business combination within the required time period and do not amend certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation prior thereto.



If third parties bring claims against us,
the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by our public stockholders may be
less than $10.20 per share.



Our placing of funds in the Trust Account may not
protect those funds from third-party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than our independent
registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with
us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of our public
stockholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or even if they execute such agreements they may not be prevented from bringing
claims against the Trust Account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar
claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim
against our assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims
to the monies held in the Trust Account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter
into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would
be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative. Making such a request of potential target businesses may make our acquisition
proposal less attractive to them and, to the extent prospective target businesses refuse to execute such a waiver, it may limit the field
of potential target businesses that we might pursue. Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refuses to
execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to
be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where we are unable to find a
service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they
may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse
against the Trust Account for any reason. Upon redemption of our public shares, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination
by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with our initial business combination,
we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years
following redemption. Accordingly, the per share redemption amount received by our public stockholders could be less than the $10.20 per
public share initially held in the Trust Account, due to claims of such creditors.



Our sponsor has agreed that it will be liable
to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than our independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered
or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering into a business combination agreement,
reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below: (1) $10.20 per public share; or (2) the actual amount per public
share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions
in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of permitted withdrawals for tax and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution
expenses, except as to any claims by a third party (including such target business) who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the
monies held in the Trust Account (whether any such waiver is enforceable) and except as to any claims under our indemnity or contribution
of the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. We have not independently investigated
or verified whether our sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that our sponsor’s only
assets are securities of our company and, therefore, our sponsor may not be able to satisfy those obligations.





18







We have also not asked our sponsor to reserve for such indemnification
obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for our initial business
combination and redemptions of public shares could be reduced to less than $10.20 per public share. In such event, we may not be able
to complete our initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of
your public shares. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties, including, without limitation, claims
by vendors and prospective target businesses.



Our independent directors may decide not
to enforce the indemnification obligations of our sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available
for distribution to our public stockholders.



In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account
are reduced below the lesser of: (1) $10.20 per public share; or (2) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account
as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets,
in each case net of permitted withdrawals for tax, and our sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has
no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against
our sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations.



While we currently expect that our independent directors
would take legal action on our behalf against our sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent
directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in certain instances. For example, the cost of such legal action
may be deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or the independent directors may determine
that a favorable outcome is not likely. If our independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount
of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to our public stockholders may be reduced below $10.20 per share.



We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy
indemnification claims of our directors and officers, and our obligation to indemnify our directors and officers may have certain adverse
consequences.



We have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors
to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, our officers and directors have agreed to waive (and any other persons who may become
an officer or director prior to the initial business combination will also be required to waive) any right, title, interest or claim of
any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and not to seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever (except
to the extent they are entitled to funds from the Trust Account due to their ownership of public shares). Accordingly, any indemnification
provided will be able to be satisfied by us only if (i) we have sufficient funds outside of the Trust Account or (ii) we consummate
an initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Our obligation to indemnify our officers and directors
may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions
also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors, even though such an action,
if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected
to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.



If, after we distribute the proceeds in the
Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that
is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our board of directors may be viewed as having
breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our board of directors and us to claims of punitive
damages.



If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust
Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not
dismissed, any distributions received by our public stockholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws
as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to
recover some or all amounts received by our public stockholders. In addition, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached
its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by
paying public stockholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.





19







If, before distributing the proceeds in the
Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that
is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our public stockholders and the per
share amount that would otherwise be received by our public stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.



If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust
Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not
dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy
estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our public stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy
claims deplete the Trust Account, the per share amount that would otherwise be received by our public stockholders in connection with
our liquidation would be reduced.



If we are deemed to be an investment company
under the Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted,
which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.



If we are deemed to be an investment company under
the Investment Company Act, our activities may be restricted, including:



• restrictions on the nature of our investments;
and



• restrictions on the issuance of securities,
each of which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.



In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome
requirements, including:



• registration as an investment company with
the SEC;



• adoption of a specific form of corporate
structure; and



• reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy
and disclosure requirements and compliance with other rules and regulations that we are currently not subject to.



In order not to be regulated as an investment company
under the Investment Company Act, unless we can qualify for an exclusion, we must ensure that we are engaged primarily in a business other
than investing, reinvesting or trading of securities and that our activities do not include investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or
trading “investment securities” constituting more than 40% of our total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and
cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. Our business is to identify and complete a business combination and thereafter to operate the
post-transaction business or assets for the long term. We do not plan to buy businesses or assets with a view to resale or profit from
their resale. We do not plan to buy unrelated businesses or assets or to be a passive investor.



We do not believe that our anticipated
principal activities will subject us to the Investment Company Act. To this end, the proceeds held in the Trust Account may only be
invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company
Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated
under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Pursuant to the trust agreement,
the trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. By restricting the investment of the proceeds to these
instruments, and by having a business plan targeted at acquiring and growing businesses for the long term (rather than on buying and
selling businesses in the manner of a merchant bank or private equity fund), we intend to avoid being deemed an “investment
company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. The Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending
the earliest to occur of: (i) the completion of our primary business objective, which is a business combination; (ii) the
redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to
have their public shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to provide for the redemption of our public
shares in connection with an initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial
business combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, or with respect to any other provision relating to
stockholder rights or pre-initial business combination activity; and (iii) absent a business combination, our return of the
funds held in the Trust Account to our public stockholders as part of our redemption of the public shares. If we do not invest the
proceeds as discussed above, we may be deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act. If we were deemed to be subject to the
Investment Company Act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expenses for which we have not
allotted funds and may hinder our ability to consummate our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial
business combination within the prescribed time period, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share on
the liquidation of the Trust Account and our warrants will expire worthless. In certain circumstances, our public stockholders may
receive less than $10.20 per share on the redemption of their shares. Please see “— If third parties bring claims
against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by our public
stockholders may be less than $10.20 per share” and other risk factors herein.





20







Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure
to comply with any laws and regulations, may materially and adversely affect us, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial
business combination.



We are subject to laws and regulations enacted
by national, regional and local governments. In particular, we will be required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements,
our business combination may be contingent on our ability to comply with certain laws and regulations and any post-business combination
company may be subject to additional laws and regulations. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be
difficult, time consuming and costly.



Those laws and regulations and their interpretation
and application may also change from time to time, including as a result of changes in economic, political, social and governmental policies,
and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, investments, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect
on us, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination.



Our stockholders may be held liable for claims
by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.



Under the DGCL, stockholders may be held liable
for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. The pro rata
portion of the Trust Account distributed to our public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete
our initial business combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, may be considered a liquidating distribution under
Delaware law. If a corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes
reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against
the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period
before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution
is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and
any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. However, it is our intention to redeem
our public shares as soon as reasonably possible following the prescribed time period in the event we do not complete our initial business
combination and, therefore, we do not intend to comply with the foregoing procedures.



Because we do not intend to comply with Section 280,
Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires us to adopt a plan, based on facts known to us at such time that will provide for our payment
of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against us within the 10 years following our dissolution.
However, because we are a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our operations will be limited to searching for prospective
target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from our vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, consultants,
etc.) or prospective target businesses. If our plan of distribution complies with Section 281(b) of the DGCL, any liability of stockholders
with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the
amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would likely be barred after the third anniversary of the
dissolution. We cannot assure you that we will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against us. As such, our stockholders
could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of our stockholders
may extend beyond the third anniversary of such date. Furthermore, if the pro rata portion of the Trust Account distributed to our
public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete our initial business combination within the
prescribed time period is not considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law and such redemption distribution is deemed to be
unlawful, then pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, the statute of limitations for claims of creditors could then be six years
after the unlawful redemption distribution, instead of three years, as in the case of a liquidating distribution.



We may not hold an annual meeting of stockholders
until after we consummate our initial business combination and you will not be entitled to any of the corporate protections provided by
such a meeting.



We may not hold an annual meeting of
stockholders until after we consummate our initial business combination (unless required by the NYSE) and thus may not be in
compliance with Section 211(b) of the DGCL, which requires an annual meeting of stockholders be held for the purposes of
electing directors in accordance with a company’s bylaws unless such election is made by written consent in lieu of such a
meeting. Therefore, if our stockholders want us to hold an annual meeting prior to our consummation of our initial business
combination, they may attempt to force us to hold one by submitting an application to the Delaware Court of Chancery in accordance
with Section 211(c) of the DGCL. Until we hold an annual meeting of stockholders, public stockholders may not be afforded the
opportunity to discuss company affairs with management. In addition, prior to our initial business combination, (a) as holders
of our Class A common stock, our public stockholders will not have the right to vote on the election of our directors, and
(b) only holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Class B common stock may remove a member of our
board of directors with or without cause.





21







Although we included the sale of the shares
of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act in the registration statement for our IPO, that
registration statement may not be current or another registration statement covering such sale of the shares of Class A common stock may
not be in place when a holder of the warrants desires to exercise the warrants, thus precluding such holder from being able to exercise
its warrants except on a “cashless basis.” If the issuance of the shares upon exercise of warrants is not registered, qualified
or exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant
may have no value and expire worthless.



Although we included the sale of the shares of
Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants in the registration statement for our IPO, because the warrants are not exercisable
until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination, we do not currently intend to file a post-effective amendment
to the registration statement for our IPO (our “IPO registration statement”) or file a new registration statement covering
the sale of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until after the initial business combination
has been consummated. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than
15 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file a post-effective
amendment to our IPO registration statement or a new registration statement, in our discretion, with the SEC and, within 60 business days
after such closing, have an effective registration statement covering the sale of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon
exercise of the warrants and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those shares
of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so if, for example,
any facts or events arise which represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement or prospectus,
the financial statements contained or incorporated by reference therein are not current, complete or correct or the SEC issues a stop
order. If the sale of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities
Act, we will be required to permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, in which case the number of shares of our Class A
common stock that you will receive upon cashless exercise will be based on a formula, subject to a maximum number of shares equal to 0.361
of a share of our Class A common stock per whole warrant (subject to adjustment) in the case of such warrant exercise during the
30-day redemption period referred to in the warrant agreement. However, no warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis,
and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the sale of the shares issuable
upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder or an exemption from registration
or qualification is available. Notwithstanding the above, if our Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant
not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1)
of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis”
in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain
in effect a registration statement or make available a current prospectus, but we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register
or qualify the sale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants under applicable state blue sky laws to the extent an exemption
is not available. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant or issue securities or other compensation in exchange
for the warrants in the event that we are unable to register or qualify the shares underlying the warrants under applicable state securities
laws and no exemption is available. If the sale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not so registered or qualified
or exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant
may have no value and expire worthless. In such event, holders who acquired their warrants as part of a purchase of units will have
paid the full unit purchase price solely for the shares of Class A common stock included in those units. There may be a circumstance
where an exemption from registration exists for holders of our private placement warrants to exercise their warrants while a corresponding
exemption does not exist for holders of our public warrants. In such an instance, our sponsor and its permitted transferees would be able
to exercise their warrants and sell the shares of Class A common stock underlying their warrants while holders of our public warrants
would not be able to do so. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable
to register or qualify the sale of the underlying shares of Class A common stock for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
In addition, we have not committed to register or qualify the sale of the shares issuable upon exercise of warrants under any non-U.S.
securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the warrants as set forth above even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise the warrants.





22







The warrants may become exercisable and redeemable
for a security other than the shares of Class A common stock, and you will not have any information regarding such other security
at this time.



In certain situations, including if we are not
the surviving entity in our initial business combination, the warrants may become exercisable for a security other than the shares of
Class A common stock. As a result, if the surviving company redeems your warrants for securities pursuant to the warrant agreement,
you may receive a security in a company of which you do not have information at this time. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, the surviving
company will be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement for the sale of the security underlying
the warrants within 15 business days of the closing of an initial business combination.



If you exercise your public warrants on a
 “cashless basis,” you will receive fewer shares of Class A common stock from such exercise than if you were to exercise
such warrants for cash.



There are circumstances in which the exercise of
the public warrants may be required or permitted to be made on a cashless basis. First, if a registration statement covering the Class A
common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day following the consummation of our initial
business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when
we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement or to make available a current prospectus, exercise warrants on a
cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available;
if that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.



Second, if we call the warrants for redemption
in the circumstances described in Exhibit 4.5 to this report under the caption “Description of Securities—Public Warrants—Redemption
of warrants for cash when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00,” warrant holders will be able to
exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption if we require or permit that warrants be exercised on a cashless basis
in connection with such redemption. In the event of any such exercise on a cashless basis, a holder would pay the warrant exercise price
by surrendering the warrants being exercised for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants being exercised, multiplied
by the excess of the “fair market value” of our Class A common stock (defined above) over the exercise price of the warrants
by (y) the fair market value, and the number of shares of our Class A common stock received by a holder upon exercise will be
fewer than it would have been had such holder exercised the warrant for cash. For example, if the holder is exercising 875 warrants at
$11.50 per share through a cashless exercise when the shares of our Class A common stock have a fair market value of $17.50 per share
when there is no effective registration statement, then, upon the cashless exercise, the holder will receive 300 shares of our Class A
common stock. The holder would have received 875 shares of our Class A common stock if the exercise price was paid in cash. This
will have the effect of reducing the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in our company because the warrant
holder will hold a smaller number of shares of our Class A common stock upon a cashless exercise of the warrants they hold.



Third, if we call the warrants for redemption in
the circumstances described in Exhibit 4.5 to this report under the caption “Description of Securities—Public Warrants—Redemption
of warrants for cash when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00,” holders who wish to exercise their
warrants may do so on a cashless basis. In the event of an exercise on a cashless basis under those circumstances, a holder would receive
that number of shares determined by reference to an agreed table based on the redemption date and the “fair market value”
of Class A common stock.



In any of these cases, this will have the effect
of reducing the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in our company because the warrant holder will hold a
smaller number of shares of our Class A common stock upon a cashless exercise of the warrants they hold.



Our warrants are accounted for as a warrant
liability, were recorded at fair value upon issuance and any changes in fair value of our warrants in each period will be reported in
earnings, which may have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities or may make it more difficult for us to consummate an
initial business combination.



We have 23,200,000 warrants outstanding
(comprised of the 11,500,000 public warrants and 11,700,000 private placement warrants). We account for these warrants as a warrant
liability, which means that we recorded them at fair value upon issuance and that any changes in their fair value in each period
will be reported in earnings. Changes in the inputs and assumptions for the valuation model we use to determine the fair value of
such liability may have a material impact on the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative liability. The share price of our
Class A common stock represents the primary underlying variable that impacts the value of the derivative instruments.
Additional factors that impact the value of the derivative instruments include the volatility of our stock price, discount rates and
stated interest rates. As a result, our results of operations will fluctuate quarterly, based on various factors, such as the share
price of our common stock, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, we may change the underlying assumptions used in
our valuation model, which could result in significant fluctuations in our results of operations. If our stock price is volatile, we
expect that we will recognize non-cash gains or losses on our warrants or any other similar derivative instruments each reporting
period and that the amount of such gains or losses could be material. The impact of changes in fair value on earnings may have an
adverse effect on the market price of our securities. In addition, potential targets may seek a business combination partner that
does not have warrants that are accounted for as a warrant liability, which may make it more difficult for us to consummate an
initial business combination with a target business.





23







The grant of registration rights to our sponsor
and its permitted transferees may make it more difficult to complete our initial business combination, and the future exercise of such
rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.



Pursuant to a registration rights agreement that
we entered into in connection with our IPO, our sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that we register the resale of their
founder shares after those shares convert to shares of our Class A common stock at the time of our initial business combination.
In addition, our sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that we register the resale of the private placement warrants and the
shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants, and holders of warrants that may be issued
upon conversion of working capital loans may demand that we register the resale of such warrants or the Class A common stock issuable
upon exercise of such warrants. We will bear the cost of registering these securities. The registration and availability of such a significant
number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock.
In addition, the existence of the registration rights may make our initial business combination more costly or difficult to complete.
This is because the stockholders of the target business may increase the equity stake they seek in the combined entity or ask for more
cash consideration to offset the negative impact on the market price of our Class A common stock that is expected when the common
stock owned by our sponsor or its permitted transferees, the private placement warrants owned by our sponsor or its permitted transferees
or warrants issued in connection with working capital loans are registered for resale.



Because we are neither limited to evaluating
target businesses in a particular industry, sector or geography, nor have we identified any specific target businesses with which to pursue
our initial business combination, you will be unable to ascertain the merits or risks of any particular target business’s operations.



We may seek to complete a business combination
with an operating company in any industry, sector or geography. However, we will not, under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation,
be permitted to effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or similar company with nominal operations.
Because we have not yet identified or approached any specific target business with respect to a business combination, there is no basis
to evaluate the possible merits or risks of any particular target business’s operations, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity,
financial condition or prospects. To the extent we complete our initial business combination, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent
in the business operations with which we combine. For example, if we combine with a financially unstable business or an entity lacking
an established record of sales or earnings, we may be affected by the risks inherent in the business and operations of a financially unstable
or a development stage entity. Although our officers and directors will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target
business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors or that we will have adequate
time to complete due diligence. Furthermore, some of these risks may be outside of our control and leave us with no ability to control
or reduce the chances that those risks will adversely impact a target business. We also cannot assure you that an investment in our units
will ultimately prove to be more favorable to investors than a direct investment, if such opportunity were available, in a business combination
target. Accordingly, any stockholders or warrant holders who choose to remain a stockholder or warrant holder following our initial business
combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their securities. Such stockholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have a remedy
for such reduction in value.



We may seek acquisition opportunities in
acquisition targets that may be outside of our management’s areas of expertise.



We will consider a business combination in
sectors which may be outside of our management’s areas of expertise if such business combination candidate is presented to us
and we determine that such candidate offers an attractive acquisition opportunity for our company. In the event we elect to pursue
an acquisition outside of the areas of our management’s expertise, our management’s expertise may not be directly
applicable to its evaluation or operation, and the information contained in this report regarding the areas of our
management’s expertise would not be relevant to an understanding of the business that we elect to acquire. As a result, our
management may not be able to adequately ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors relevant to such acquisition.
Accordingly, any stockholders or warrant holders who choose to remain a stockholder or warrant holder following our initial business
combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their securities. Such stockholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have a
remedy for such reduction in value.





24







We may engage the underwriter or one or more
of its affiliates to provide services to us in the future, which may include acting as an advisor in connection with an initial business
combination or as placement agent in connection with a related financing transaction. The underwriter is entitled to receive deferred
underwriting fees that will be released from the Trust Account only upon a completion of an initial business combination. These financial
incentives may cause the underwriter to have potential conflicts of interest in rendering any such services, including, for example, in
connection with the sourcing and consummation of an initial business combination.



We may engage the underwriter or one or more of
its affiliates to provide services to us in the future, including, for example, identifying potential targets, providing advisory services,
acting as a placement agent in a private offering or arranging debt financing transactions. We may pay the underwriter or its affiliate
fair and reasonable fees or other compensation that would be determined at that time in an arm’s length negotiation. The underwriter
is also entitled to receive deferred underwriting fees that are conditioned on the completion of an initial business combination. The
underwriter’s or its affiliates’ financial interests tied to the consummation of a business combination transaction may give
rise to potential conflicts of interest in providing any such services to us, including potential conflicts of interest in connection
with the sourcing and consummation of an initial business combination.



Although we have identified general guidelines
and characteristics that we believe are important in evaluating prospective target businesses, we may enter into our initial business
combination with a target that does not meet such guidelines and characteristics, and as a result, the target business with which we enter
into our initial business combination may not have attributes entirely consistent with such guidelines and characteristics.



Although we have identified general guidelines
and characteristics for evaluating prospective target businesses, it is possible that a target business with which we enter into our initial
business combination will not have attributes entirely consistent with such guidelines and characteristics. If we complete our initial
business combination with a target that does not meet some or all of these guidelines and characteristics, such combination may not be
as successful as a combination with a business that does meet all of our guidelines and characteristics. In addition, if we announce a
prospective business combination with a target that does not meet our general guidelines and characteristics, a greater number of public
stockholders may exercise their redemption rights, which may make it difficult for us to meet any closing condition with a target business
that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash. In addition, if stockholder approval of the transaction is required
by applicable law or stock exchange rules, or we decide to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, it may be more difficult
for us to attain stockholder approval of our initial business combination if the target business does not meet our general guidelines
and characteristics . If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period, our public stockholders
may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of the Trust Account and our warrants
will expire worthless.



We may seek acquisition opportunities with
an early stage company, a financially unstable business or an entity lacking an established record of revenue or earnings, which could
subject us to volatile revenues or earnings, intense competition and difficulties in obtaining and retaining key personnel.



To the extent we complete our initial business
combination with an early stage company, a financially unstable business or an entity lacking an established record of sales or earnings,
we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the operations of the business with which we combine. These risks include investing in
a business without a proven business model and with limited historical financial data, volatile revenues or earnings, intense competition
and difficulties in obtaining and retaining key personnel. Although our officers and directors will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent
in a particular target business, we may not be able to properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors and we may not
have adequate time to complete due diligence. Furthermore, some of these risks may be outside of our control and leave us with no ability
to control or reduce the chances that those risks will adversely impact a target business.



A slowdown in economic growth in the markets
that our target business operates in may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations,
the value of our securities and the trading price of our shares following our business combination.



Following the business combination, our
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition may be dependent on, and may be adversely affected by, conditions in
financial markets in the global economy, and, particularly in the markets where the target business operates. The specific economy
could be adversely affected by various factors, such as political or regulatory action, including business corruption, social
disturbances, terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war, natural calamities, interest rates, inflation, commodity and
energy prices and various other factors which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and
results of operations, the value of our securities and the trading price of our shares following the business combination.





25







We are generally not required to obtain an
opinion regarding fairness from an independent investment banking firm or from an independent accounting firm, and consequently, you may
have no assurance from an independent source that the price we are paying for the business is fair to our company from a financial point
of view.



Unless we complete our initial business combination
with an affiliated entity, we are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA
or from an independent accounting firm that the price we are paying is fair to our company from a financial point of view.



In addition, if our board of directors is not able
to determine the fair market value of the target businesses or assets, in connection with the rules of the NYSE that require that an initial
business combination be with one or more businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in
the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount), we will obtain an opinion from an independent investment
banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from an independent accounting firm with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria.



Other than the two circumstances described above,
we are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from an independent
accounting firm.



If no opinion is obtained, our stockholders will
be relying on the judgment of our board of directors, who will determine fair market value based on standards generally accepted by the
financial community. Such standards used will be disclosed in our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable,
related to our initial business combination.



We may issue additional shares of Class A
common stock or preferred stock to complete our initial business combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of our
initial business combination. We may also issue shares of Class A common stock upon the conversion of the Class B common stock
at a ratio greater than one-to-one at the time of our initial business combination as a result of the anti-dilution provisions. Any such
issuances would dilute the interest of our stockholders and likely present other risks.



Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
authorizes the issuance of up to 200,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of
Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.
As of December 31, 2021, there were 153,800,000 and 14,250,000 authorized but unissued shares of Class A and Class B common
stock, respectively, available for issuance, which amount takes into account shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding
warrants, but not shares reserved upon the conversion of the Class B common stock. Shares of Class B common stock are automatically
convertible into shares of our Class A common stock at the time of our initial business combination, or earlier at the option of
the holders thereof, initially at a one-for-one ratio but subject to adjustment as set forth herein. As of December 31, 2021, there were
no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.



We may issue a substantial number of additional
shares of Class A common stock, and may issue shares of preferred stock, in order to complete our initial business combination or
under an employee incentive plan after completion of our initial business combination. We may also issue shares upon conversion of the
Class B common stock at a ratio greater than one-to-one at the time of our initial business combination as a result of the anti-dilution
provisions. However, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides, among other things, that prior to our initial business
combination, we may not issue additional shares of capital stock that would entitle the holders thereof to (1) receive funds from
the Trust Account or (2) vote on any initial business combination, pre-initial business combination activity or amendments to the
articles of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation that govern certain rights of holders related to our consummation of
an initial business combination. The issuance of additional shares of common or preferred stock:



• may significantly dilute the equity interest
of our investors;



• may subordinate the rights of holders of
common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;





26







• could cause a change in control if a substantial
number of shares of common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards,
if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;



• may have the effect of delaying or preventing
a change of control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us;



• may adversely affect prevailing market prices
for our units, common stock and/or warrants; and



• may not result in adjustment to the exercise
price of our warrants.



Resources could be wasted in researching
initial business combinations that are not completed, which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and acquire
or merge with another business. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period, our public
stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of
the Trust Account and our warrants will expire worthless.



We anticipate that the investigation of each specific
target business and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require
substantial management time and attention and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others. If we decide not to complete a
specific initial business combination, the costs incurred up to that point for the proposed transaction likely would not be recoverable.
Furthermore, if we reach an agreement relating to a specific target business, we may fail to complete our initial business combination
for any number of reasons, including those beyond our control. Any such event will result in a loss to us of the related costs incurred
which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and acquire or merge with another business. If we are unable to
complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20
per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of the Trust Account and our warrants will expire worthless. Please see
 “—If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption
amount received by our public stockholders may be less than $10.20 per share” and other risk factors herein.



Our officers and directors will allocate
some of their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our
affairs. This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination.



Our officers and directors are not required to,
and will not, commit their full time to our affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating their time between our operations
and our search for a business combination and their other responsibilities. We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to
the completion of our business combination. Each of our officers and directors is and/or may be engaged in several other business endeavors
for which they may be entitled to substantial compensation and our officers and directors are not obligated to contribute any specific
number of hours per week to our affairs.



If our officers’ and directors’ other
business affairs require them to devote substantial amounts of time to such affairs, it could limit their ability to devote time to our
affairs which may have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination.



We are dependent upon our officers and directors
and their departure could adversely affect us.



Our operations are dependent upon a relatively
small group of individuals. We believe that our success depends on the continued service of our officers and directors, at least until
we have completed our initial business combination. We do not have an employment agreement with, or key-man insurance on the life of,
any of our other directors or officers. The unexpected loss of the services of one or more of our directors or officers could have a detrimental
effect on us.



Our ability to successfully effect our initial
business combination and to be successful thereafter will be dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel, some of whom may join us
following our initial business combination. The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and financial results of
our post-combination company.



Our ability to successfully effect our
initial business combination is dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel. The role of our key personnel in the target
business, however, cannot presently be ascertained. Although some of our key personnel may remain with the target business in senior
management or advisory positions following our initial business combination, we do not currently expect that any of them will do so.
While we intend to closely scrutinize any individuals we engage after our initial business combination, we cannot assure you that
our assessment of these individuals will prove to be correct. These individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating
a company regulated by the SEC, which could cause us to have to expend time and resources helping them become familiar with such
requirements.





27







In addition, the officers and directors of an acquisition
candidate may resign upon completion of our initial business combination. The departure of a business combination target’s key personnel
could negatively impact the operations and financial results of our post-transaction company. The role of an acquisition candidate’s
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.
The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and financial results of our post-transaction company.



Our key personnel may negotiate employment
or consulting agreements with a target business in connection with a particular business combination, and a particular business combination
may be conditioned on the retention or resignation of such key personnel. These agreements may cause our key personnel to have conflicts
of interest in determining whether to proceed with a particular business combination.



Our key personnel may be able to remain with our
company after the completion of our initial business combination only if they are able to negotiate employment or consulting agreements
in connection with the business combination. Such negotiations would take place simultaneously with the negotiation of the business combination
and could provide for such individuals to receive compensation in the form of cash payments and/or our securities for services they would
render to us after the completion of the business combination. Such negotiations also could make such key personnel’s retention
or resignation a condition to any such agreement. The personal and financial interests of such individuals may influence their motivation
in identifying and selecting a target business. However, we believe the ability of such individuals to remain with us after the completion
of our initial business combination will not be the determining factor in our decision as to whether or not we will proceed with any potential
business combination. 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.



Members of our management team and board
of directors have significant experience as board members, officers or executives of other companies. As a result, certain of those persons
have been, may be, or may become, involved in proceedings, investigations and litigation relating to the business affairs of the companies
with which they were, are, or may in the future be, affiliated. This may have an adverse effect on us, which may impede our ability to
consummate an initial business combination.



During the course of their careers, members of
our management team and board of directors have had significant experience as board members, officers or executives of other companies.
As a result of their involvement and positions in these companies, certain persons were, are now, or may in the future become, involved
in litigation, investigations or other proceedings relating to the business affairs of such companies or transactions entered into by
such companies. Any such litigation, investigations or other proceedings may divert our management team’s and board’s attention
and resources away from identifying and selecting a target business or businesses for our initial business combination and may negatively
affect our reputation, which may impede our ability to complete an initial business combination.



Members of our management team and affiliated
companies have been, or may in the future be, subject to media coverage and involved in civil disputes or governmental investigations
unrelated to our business.



Members of our management team have been (or intend
to be) involved in a wide variety of businesses. Such involvement has, or may, lead to significant media coverage and public awareness.
In addition, members of our management team and affiliated companies have been, or may in the future be, involved in civil disputes or
governmental investigations unrelated to our business. Any such media coverage, public awareness, disputes or investigations may be detrimental
to our reputation and could negatively affect our ability to identify and complete an initial business combination and may have an adverse
effect on the price of our securities.





28







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 and comply with applicable rules and regulations.



When evaluating the desirability of effecting our
initial business combination with a prospective target business, our ability to assess the target business’s management may be limited
due to a lack of time, resources or information. Our assessment of the capabilities of the target business’s management, therefore,
may prove to be incorrect and such management may lack the skills, qualifications or abilities we suspected. Should the target business’s
management not possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to manage a public company and comply with applicable rules and
regulations (including SEC reporting requirements), the operations and financial results of the post-combination company may be negatively
impacted. Accordingly, any stockholders or warrant holders who choose to remain a stockholder or warrant holder following our initial
business combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their securities. Such stockholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have
a remedy for such reduction in value.



The officers and directors of an initial business
combination candidate may resign upon completion of our initial business combination. The departure of a business combination target’s
key personnel could negatively impact the operations and financial results of our post-combination company. The role of an initial business
combination candidate’s 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 initial
business combination 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. As a result, we may need to reconstitute the management team of the post-transaction company
in connection with our initial business combination, which may adversely impact our ability to complete an initial business combination
in a timely manner or at all.



Our sponsor, officers and directors are now,
and/or may in the future become, affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by
us and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity or other transaction
should be presented.



Until we consummate our initial business combination,
we intend to engage in the business of identifying and combining with one or more businesses. Our sponsor, officers and directors are
now, and/or may in the future become, affiliated with entities (such as operating companies, investment vehicles or other blank check
companies) that are engaged in a similar business. We do not have employment contracts with our officers and directors that will limit
their ability to work at other businesses. As such, our officers and directors are not prohibited from sponsoring, or otherwise becoming
involved with, any other blank check companies prior to us completing our initial business combination. As a result, our officers or directors
could have conflicts of interest in determining whether to present business combination opportunities to us or to any other entity with
which they may become involved.



Each of our officers and directors presently has,
and/or in the future may have, additional, fiduciary or contractual duties or obligations to one or more other entities pursuant to which
such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entities. Accordingly, if any of
our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then-current
fiduciary or contractual duties or obligations to present the opportunity to such entity, he or she will honor these duties or obligations
to present such business combination opportunity to such entity. These conflicts may not be resolved in our favor and a potential target
business may be presented to another entity prior to its presentation to us. Even if an officer or director of ours does not have any
fiduciary or contractual duties or obligations to another entity, such officer or director may, nonetheless, choose to present business
combination opportunities to other entities before presenting them to us if such officer or director is not prohibited by our amended
and restated certificate of incorporation from doing so. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that we renounce
our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is offered to such person solely
in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted
to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that
opportunity to us without violating another legal obligation.



Our sponsor, officers and directors and their
respective affiliates may have competitive pecuniary interests that conflict with our interests.



We have not adopted a policy that expressly prohibits
our sponsor, officers or directors or any of their respective affiliates from having a direct or indirect pecuniary or financial interest
in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by us or in any transaction to which we are a party or have an interest. In fact, we may
enter into a business combination with a target business that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors. We do not have a
policy that expressly prohibits any such persons from engaging for their own account in business activities of the types conducted by
us. Accordingly, such persons or entities may have a conflict between their interests and ours.





29







Affiliates of our sponsor have invested in entities
in a diverse range of industries. As a result, there may be substantial overlap between companies that would be suitable business combination
candidates for us and companies that would make an attractive investment and/or target for such other entities.



We may engage in a business combination with
one or more target businesses that have relationships with entities that may be affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors which
may raise potential conflicts of interest.



In light of the involvement of our sponsor, officers
and directors with other businesses, we may decide to acquire one or more businesses affiliated with or competitive with our sponsor,
officers and directors and their respective affiliates. Our directors also serve as officers and board members for other entities. Such
entities may compete with us for business combination opportunities. Our sponsor, officers and directors are not currently aware of any
specific opportunities for us to complete our initial business combination with any entities with which they are affiliated, and there
have been no substantive discussions concerning a business combination with any such entity or entities. Although we will not be specifically
focusing on, or targeting, any transaction with any affiliated entities, we would pursue such a transaction if we determined that a combination
with such affiliated entity was in our best interests and such transaction was approved by a majority of our independent directors. Despite
our agreement to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from an independent accounting
firm, regarding the fairness to our company from a financial point of view of a business combination with one or more domestic or international
businesses affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors, potential conflicts of interest still may exist and, as a result, the terms
of the business combination may not be as advantageous to our public stockholders as they would be absent any conflicts of interest.



Since our sponsor will lose its entire investment
in us if our initial business combination is not completed within the prescribed time period (other than with respect to any public shares
it may hold), a conflict of interest may arise in determining whether a particular business combination target is appropriate for our
initial business combination.



As of March 22, 2022, our sponsor held an
aggregate of 5,750,000 founder shares, representing 20.0% of our outstanding public shares and an aggregate of 11,700,000 private
placement warrants entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment. The founder shares will be worthless if we do not complete an initial business combination by June 14, 2023
or during any Extension Period.



The founder shares are identical to the public
shares, except that: (1) only holders of the founder shares have the right to vote on the election of directors and to remove directors
prior to our initial business combination; (2) the founder shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions contained in a letter
agreement; (3) our sponsor, directors and officers have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed
to: (a) waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the
completion of our initial business combination, (b) waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and public shares
held by them in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to
(A) modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to have their public shares redeemed
in connection with our initial business combination or to provide for the redemption of our public shares in connection with an initial
business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we have not consummated our initial business combination by June 14, 2023,
or during any Extension Period, or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholder rights or pre-initial business
combination activity; and (c) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder
shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period (although
they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete
our initial business combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period); (4) the founder shares are automatically convertible
into shares of our Class A common stock at the time of our initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holders
thereof, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, as described herein; and (5) the holders of founder shares are entitled to
registration rights. If we submit our initial business combination to our public stockholders for a vote, our sponsor and officers and
directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with us,
to vote their founder shares and any public shares held by them purchased during or after our IPO in favor of our initial business combination.
While we do not expect our board of directors to approve any amendment to or waiver of the letter agreement or registration rights agreement
prior to our initial business combination, it may be possible that our board of directors, in exercising its business judgment and subject
to its fiduciary duties, chooses to approve one or more amendments to or waivers of such agreements in connection with the consummation
of our initial business combination. Any such amendments or waivers would not require approval from our stockholders, may result in the
completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible and may have an adverse effect on the value of
an investment in our securities.





30







The personal and financial interests of our sponsor,
officers and directors may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business combination, completing an initial
business combination and influencing the operation of the business following the initial business combination. This risk may become more
acute as the deadline for completing our initial business combination nears. In particular, because the founder shares were purchased
at approximately $0.004 per share, the holders of our founder shares (including our officers and directors that directly or indirectly
own founder shares) could make a substantial profit after our initial business combination even if our public stockholders lose money
on their investment as a result of the post-combination value of their shares of Class A common stock (after accounting for any adjustments
in connection with an exchange or other transaction contemplated by the business combination) being less than the amount they purchased
those shares ($10.00 per share in the case of public stockholders that purchased in our IPO). For example, a holder of 1,000 founder shares
would have paid approximately $4.00 to obtain such shares. At the time of an initial business combination, such holder would be able to
convert such founder shares into 1,000 shares of our Class A common stock, and would receive the same consideration in connection with
our initial business combination as a public stockholder for the same number of shares of our Class A common stock. If the value of the
shares of our Class A common stock on a post-combination basis (after accounting for any adjustments in connection with an exchange or
other transaction contemplated by the business combination) were to decrease to $5.00 per share of our Class A common stock, the holder
of our founder shares would obtain a profit of approximately $4,996 on account of the 1,000 founder shares that the holder had converted
into shares of Class A common stock in connection with the initial business combination. By contrast, for example, a public stockholder
holding 1,000 shares of Class A common stock, which were purchased by such public stockholder in our IPO, would lose approximately $5,000
in connection with the same transaction.



We may issue notes or other debt securities,
or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete our initial business combination, which may materially and adversely affect our leverage,
liquidity and financial condition and thus negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment in us.



Although we have no current commitments to issue
any notes or other debt securities, or to otherwise incur debt, we may choose to incur substantial debt to complete our initial business
combination. We have agreed that we will not incur any indebtedness unless we have obtained from the lender a waiver of any right, title,
interest or claim of any kind in or to the monies held in the Trust Account. As such, no issuance of debt will affect the per share amount
available for redemption of the public shares from the Trust Account. Nevertheless, the incurrence of debt could have a variety of negative
effects, including:



• default and foreclosure on our assets if
our operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;



• acceleration of our obligations to repay
the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance
of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;



• our immediate payment of all principal and
accrued interest, if any, if the debt is payable on demand;



• our inability to obtain necessary additional
financing if the debt contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;



• our inability to pay dividends on our common
stock;



• using a substantial portion of our cash
flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common stock if declared, expenses,
capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;



• limitations on our flexibility in planning
for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;



• increased vulnerability to adverse changes
in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and



• limitations on our ability to borrow additional
amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and
other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.





31







We may only be able to complete one business
combination with the proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement, which will cause us to be solely dependent on a single business
which may have a limited number of products or services. This lack of diversification may materially negatively impact our operations
and financial results.



As of December 31, 2021, the Trust Account held
$234,600,690 in funds available to complete our initial business combination (which includes $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting commissions
being held in the Trust Account).



We may effectuate our initial business combination
with a single target business or multiple target businesses simultaneously or within a short period of time. However, we may not be able
to effectuate our initial business combination with more than one target business because of various factors, including the existence
of complex accounting issues and the requirement that we prepare and file pro forma financial statements with the SEC that present
operating results and the financial condition of several target businesses as if they had been operated on a combined basis. By completing
our initial business combination with only a single entity, our lack of diversification may subject us to numerous economic, competitive
and regulatory risks. Further, we would not be able to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting
of losses, unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different
areas of a single industry. Accordingly, the prospects for our success may be:



• solely dependent upon the performance of
a single business, property or asset; or



• dependent upon the development or market
acceptance of a single or limited number of products, processes or services.



This lack of diversification may subject us to
numerous economic, competitive and regulatory risks, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry
in which we may operate subsequent to our initial business combination, as well as on our operations and financial results.



We may attempt to simultaneously complete
business combinations with multiple prospective targets, which may hinder our ability to complete our initial business combination and
give rise to increased costs and risks that could negatively impact our financial results and condition.



If we determine to simultaneously acquire several
businesses that are owned by different sellers, we will need for each of such sellers to agree that our purchase of its business is contingent
on the simultaneous closings of the other business combinations, which may make it more difficult for us, and delay our ability, to complete
our initial business combination. With multiple business combinations, we could also face additional risks, including additional burdens
and costs with respect to possible multiple negotiations and due diligence investigations (if there are multiple sellers) and the additional
risks associated with the subsequent assimilation of the operations and services or products of the acquired companies in a single operating
business. If we are unable to adequately address these risks, it could negatively impact our financial results and condition.



We may attempt to complete our initial business
combination with a private company about which little information is available, which may result in a business combination with a company
that is not as profitable as we suspected, if at all.



In pursuing our acquisition strategy, we may seek
to effectuate our initial business combination with a privately held company. Very little public information generally exists about private
companies, and we could be required to make our decision on whether to pursue a potential initial business combination on the basis of
limited information, which may result in a business combination with a company that is not as attractive as we anticipated, if at all.



Our management may not be able to maintain
control of a target business after our initial business combination. Upon loss of control of a target business, new management may not
possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to profitably operate such business.



We may structure our initial business
combination so that the post-transaction company in which our public stockholders own shares will own less than 100% of the equity
interests or assets of a target business, but we will only complete such business combination if the post-transaction company owns
or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the
target business sufficient for us not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. We will
not consider any transaction that does not meet such criteria. Even if the post-transaction company owns 50% or more of the voting
securities of the target, our stockholders prior to our initial business combination may collectively own a minority interest in the
post business combination company, depending on valuations ascribed to the target and us in our initial business combination. For
example, we could pursue a transaction in which we issue a substantial number of new shares of common stock in exchange for all of
the outstanding capital stock of a target or issue a substantial number of new shares of Class A common stock to third parties
in connection with financing our initial business combination. In this case, we would acquire a 100% interest in the target.
However, as a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new shares of common stock, our stockholders immediately prior to
such transaction could own less than a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock subsequent to such transaction. In
addition, other minority stockholders may subsequently combine their holdings resulting in a single person or group obtaining a
larger share of the company’s stock than we initially acquired. Accordingly, this may make it more likely that our management
will not be able to maintain our control of the target business.





32







We do not have a specified maximum redemption
threshold. The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for us to complete our initial business combination with which
a substantial majority of our stockholders do not agree.



Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
does not provide a specified maximum redemption threshold, except that in no event will we redeem our public shares in an amount that
would cause our net tangible assets, after payment of the deferred underwriting fees, to be less than $5,000,001 (such that we do not
then become subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules), or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may
be contained in the agreement relating to our initial business combination. As a result, we may be able to complete our initial business
combination even though a substantial majority of our public stockholders do not agree with the transaction and have redeemed their shares
or, if we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination and do not conduct redemptions of public shares in connection
with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, have entered into privately negotiated agreements to sell their
shares to our sponsor, officers, directors, advisors or any of their respective affiliates. In the event the aggregate cash consideration
we would be required to pay for all public shares that are validly submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cash conditions
pursuant to the terms of the proposed business combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the
business combination or redeem any shares, all public shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof, and we
instead may search for an alternate business combination (including, potentially, with the same target).



In order to effectuate an initial business
combination, blank check companies have, in the recent past, amended various provisions of their charters and modified governing instruments,
including their warrant agreements. We cannot assure you that we will not seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
or governing instruments, including our warrant agreement, in a manner that will make it easier for us to complete our initial business
combination that some of our stockholders or warrant holders may not support.



In order to effectuate an initial business combination,
blank check companies have, in the recent past, amended various provisions of their charters and modified governing instruments, including
their warrant agreements. For example, blank check companies have amended the definition of business combination, increased redemption
thresholds, extended the time to consummate an initial business combination and, with respect to their warrants, amended their warrant
agreements to require the warrants to be exchanged for cash and/or other securities. We cannot assure you that we will not seek to amend
our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or governing instruments or extend the time to consummate an initial business combination
in order to effectuate our initial business combination. To the extent any such amendment would be deemed to fundamentally change the
nature of any of the securities issued in our IPO, we would register, or seek an exemption from registration for, the affected securities.



Certain provisions of our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation that relate to our pre-business combination activity (and corresponding provisions of the trust agreement
governing the release of funds from the Trust Account) may be amended with the approval of holders of at least 65% of the outstanding
shares of our common stock, which is a lower amendment threshold than that of some other blank check companies. It may be easier for us,
therefore, to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the trust agreement to facilitate the completion of an initial
business combination that some of our stockholders may not support.



Our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation provides that any of its provisions (other than provisions relating to the appointment and removal of directors prior
to our initial business combination, which may only be amended with the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of our Class B common stock) related to pre-business combination activity (including the requirement to deposit proceeds
from our IPO and the Private Placement into the Trust Account and not release such amounts, except in specified circumstances and to
provide redemption rights to public stockholders as described herein) may be amended if approved by holders of at least 65% of the
outstanding shares of our common stock, and corresponding provisions of the trust agreement governing the release of funds from the
Trust Account may be amended if approved by holders of at least 65% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. In all other
instances, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that it may be amended by holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to applicable provisions of the DGCL, or applicable stock exchange rules. We may not
issue additional securities with the right to vote on amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or on our
initial business combination. Our sponsor, which owned 20% of our common stock as of March 22, 2022, may participate in any vote to
amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and/or trust agreement and will have the discretion to vote in any
manner they choose. As a result, we may be able to amend the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
which govern our pre-business combination behavior more easily than some other blank check companies, and this may increase our
ability to complete our initial business combination with which you do not agree. Our stockholders may pursue remedies against us
for any breach of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation.





33







Our sponsor, officers and directors have agreed,
pursuant to a written agreement, that they will not propose any amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to
modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to have their public shares redeemed in
connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination
by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, or with respect to any other provision relating to stockholder rights or pre-initial
business combination activity, unless we provide our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon approval
of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, divided
by the number of then outstanding public shares. These agreements are contained in a letter agreement that we have entered into with our
sponsor, officers and directors. Our public stockholders are not parties to, or third-party beneficiaries of, these agreements and, as
a result, will not have the ability to pursue remedies against our sponsor, officers or directors for any breach of these agreements.
As a result, in the event of a breach, our stockholders would need to pursue a stockholder derivative action, subject to applicable law.



Certain agreements related to our IPO may
be amended without stockholder approval.



Certain agreements, including the letter agreement
among us and our sponsor, officers and directors, and the registration rights agreement among us and our sponsor, may be amended without
stockholder approval. These agreements contain various provisions that our public stockholders might deem to be material. While we do
not expect our board to approve any amendment to any of these agreements prior to our initial business combination, it may be possible
that our board, in exercising its business judgment and subject to its fiduciary duties, chooses to approve one or more amendments to
any such agreement in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Any such amendments would not require approval
from our stockholders, may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible, and
may have an adverse effect on the value of an investment in our securities.



We may be unable to obtain additional financing
to complete our initial business combination or to fund the operations and growth of a target business, which could compel us to restructure
or abandon a particular business combination.



Although we believe that the net proceeds from
our IPO and the Private Placement will be sufficient to allow us to complete our initial business combination, because we have not yet
identified any prospective target business we cannot ascertain the capital requirements for any particular transaction. If the net proceeds
from our IPO and the Private Placement prove to be insufficient, because of (1) the size of our initial business combination, (2) the
depletion of the available net proceeds in search of a target business, (3) the obligation to redeem for cash a significant number
of public shares from stockholders who elect redemption in connection with our initial business combination or (4) the terms of negotiated
transactions to purchase shares in connection with our initial business combination, we may be required to seek additional financing or
to abandon the proposed business combination. We cannot assure you that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
None of our sponsor, officers or directors, or any entity affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors, is obligated to provide,
or seek, any such financing or, except as expressly set forth herein, to provide any other services to us. To the extent that additional
financing proves to be unavailable when needed to complete our initial business combination, we would be compelled to either restructure
the transaction or abandon that particular business combination and seek an alternative target business candidate. In addition, even if
we do not need additional financing to complete our initial business combination, we may require such financing to fund the operations
or growth of the target business. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development
or growth of the target business. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination in the prescribed time period, our public
stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of the Trust Account,
and our warrants will expire worthless.





34







Our sponsor and any other holder of our founder
shares will control the election of our board of directors until consummation of our initial business combination and will hold a substantial
interest in us. As a result, our sponsor (and any such other holders) will elect all of our directors prior to the consummation of our
initial business combination and may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a stockholder vote, potentially in a manner that
you do not support.



As of March 22, 2022, our sponsor owned 20%
of our outstanding common stock  and all of our founder shares. The founder shares will
entitle the holders to elect all of our directors prior to the consummation of our initial business combination. Holders of our public
shares will have no right to vote on the election of directors during such time. In addition, prior to the completion of an initial business
combination, only holders of a majority of our founder shares may remove a member of the board of directors with or without cause. These
provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation may only be amended by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of our Class B common stock. As a result, you will not have any influence over the election or removal of our directors prior
to our initial business combination.



Although none of our sponsor, directors or officers
have any current intention to purchase additional securities of ours, they are not restricted from doing so and there is no limit to the
number of our securities they may purchase. Factors that would be considered in making such additional purchases would include consideration
of the current trading price of our Class A common stock. In addition, as a result of its substantial ownership in our company, our
sponsor may exert a substantial influence on other actions requiring a stockholder vote, potentially in a manner that you do not support,
including amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and approval of major corporate transactions. If our sponsor
purchases any additional shares of common stock in the aftermarket or in privately negotiated transactions, this would increase their
influence over these actions. Accordingly, our sponsor will exert significant influence over actions requiring a stockholder vote.



Our sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000
for the founder shares, or approximately $0.004 per founder share. As a result of this low initial price, the holders of our founder shares
(including our officers and directors that directly or indirectly own founder shares) stand to make a substantial profit even if an initial
business combination subsequently declines in value or is unprofitable for our public stockholders.



As a result of the low acquisition cost of our
founder shares, the holders of our founder shares (including our officers and directors that directly or indirectly own founder shares)
could make a substantial profit even if we select and consummate an initial business combination with an acquisition target that subsequently
declines in value or is unprofitable for our public stockholders. Thus, such parties may have more of an economic incentive for us to
enter into an initial business combination with a riskier, weaker-performing or financially unstable business, or an entity lacking an
established record of revenues or earnings, than would be the case if such parties had paid for their founder shares at a purchase price
that is about the same as the prices that public stockholders purchased their public shares in our IPO or the aftermarket.



We may amend the terms of the warrants in
a manner that may be adverse to holders of the public warrants with the approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding public
warrants. As a result, the exercise price of your warrants could be increased, the warrants could be converted into cash or stock (at
a ratio different than initially provided), the exercise period could be shortened, the number of shares of our Class A common stock
purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased, and changes designed to result in accounting for the warrants as equity could
be effected, all without your approval.



Our warrants were issued in registered form
under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement
provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity, mistake (including
to conform the warrant agreement to the description thereof herein) or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by
the holders of a majority of the outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the holders
of our warrants. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of a majority of the
outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private
placement warrants or any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, a majority of the
outstanding private placement warrants approve such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the warrants with the
consent of a majority of the outstanding public warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among
other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, convert the warrants into cash or stock (at a ratio different than
initially provided), shorten the exercise period, decrease the number of shares of our common stock purchasable upon exercise of a
warrant or effect accounting for the warrants as equity. Our sponsor may purchase public warrants with the intention of reducing the
number of public warrants outstanding or to vote such public warrants on any matters submitted to warrant holders for approval,
including amending the terms of the warrants in a manner adverse to the interests of the holders of public warrants. While our
sponsor has no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or
conditions for such transactions, there is no limit on the number of our public warrants that our sponsor may purchase and it is not
currently known how many public warrants, if any, our sponsor may hold at the time of our initial business combination or at any
other time during which the terms of the warrants may be proposed to be amended.





35







Our warrant agreement designates the courts
of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for
certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders
to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company.



Our warrant agreement provides that, subject to
applicable law, (i) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement, including
under the Securities Act, will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York, and (ii) that we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be the exclusive
forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. We will waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent
an inconvenient forum.



Notwithstanding the foregoing, these provisions
of the warrant agreement will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim
for which the federal courts of the United States of America have exclusive jurisdiction. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise
acquiring any interest in any of our warrants shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in our warrant
agreement. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions of the warrant agreement, is filed in
a court other than a court of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (in this
context, a “foreign action”) in the name of any holder of our warrants, such holder shall be deemed to have consented to:
(x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York in connection with any action brought
in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (in this context, an “enforcement action”), and (y) having service
of process made upon such warrant holder in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant holder’s counsel in the foreign
action as agent for such warrant holder.



This choice-of-forum provision may limit a warrant
holder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with our company, which may discourage
such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our warrant agreement inapplicable or unenforceable with respect
to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters
in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations
and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our management and board of directors.



We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior
to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making such warrants worthless.



We have the ability to redeem outstanding public
warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, provided that the last
reported sale price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day
prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to all the warrant holders. If and when the public warrants become redeemable by us,
we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable
state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force you to: (1) exercise your warrants and pay the exercise
price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so; (2) sell your warrants at the then-current market price
when you might otherwise wish to hold your warrants; or (3) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding
warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your redeemable warrants. However, none
of the private placement warratns will be redeemable by us (except under certain circumstances in connection with the redemption described
in the next paragraph) so long as they are held by our sponsor or its permitted transferees.



In addition, we have the ability to redeem
the outstanding public warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.10 per
warrant, provided that the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted
for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day
period ending on the third trading day prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders, and provided
further that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption for a number of Class A
common stock determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of our Class A common stock. Any such redemption
may have similar consequences to the redemption described above. In addition, such redemption may occur at a time when the warrants
are “out-of-the-money,” in which case you would lose any potential embedded value from a subsequent increase in the
value of the Class A common stock had your warrants remained outstanding.





36







Our warrants and founder shares may have
an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock and make it more difficult to effectuate our initial business combination.



Our sponsor currently holds 5,750,000 founder shares
and 11,700,000 private placement warrants. The founder shares are convertible into shares of Class A common stock, as provided herein,
on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as set forth herein. In addition, if our management team, sponsor or directors or any of
their respective affiliates make any working capital loans, up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be converted into warrants, at the price
of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants.



To the extent we issue shares of Class A common
stock to effectuate a business combination, the potential for the issuance of a substantial number of additional shares of Class A
common stock upon exercise of these warrants or conversion rights could make us a less attractive acquisition vehicle to a target business.
Any such issuance will increase the number of outstanding shares of our Class A common stock and reduce the value of the Class A
common stock issued to complete the business combination. Therefore, our warrants and founder shares may make it more difficult to effectuate
a business combination or increase the cost of acquiring the target business.



The private placement warrants are identical to
the warrants sold as part of the units in our IPO except that, so long as they are held by our sponsor or its permitted transferees:
(1) they will not be redeemable by us, except under certain limited circumstances; (2) they (including the Class A common
stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold, until
30 days after the completion of our initial business combination; (3) they may always be exercised by the holders on a cashless
basis; and (4) the holders thereof (including with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants)
are entitled to registration rights.



Because each unit contains one-half of one
warrant and only a whole warrant may be exercised, the units may be worth less than units of other blank check companies.



Each unit contains one-half of one redeemable warrant.
Because, pursuant to the warrant agreement, the warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares, only a whole warrant may
be exercised at any given time and therefore you will need to hold units in integral multiples of two in order for you to exercise
your warrants prior to their separation from the units. Further, only whole warrants will trade. This is different from the units of some
blank check companies whose units include one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one whole share. We have established
the components of the units in this way in order to reduce the dilutive effect of the warrants upon completion of a business combination
since the warrants will be exercisable in the aggregate for one-half of the number of shares compared to units that each contain
a warrant to purchase one whole share, thus making us, we believe, a more attractive merger partner for target businesses. Nevertheless,
this unit structure may cause our units to be worth less than if they included a warrant to purchase one whole share.



A provision in our warrant agreement may
make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial business combination.



Unlike most blank check companies, if
(i) we issue additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in
connection with the closing of our initial business combination at a Newly Issued Price of less than $9.20 per share, (ii) the
aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available
for the funding of our initial business combination on the date of the consummation of our initial business combination (net of
redemptions), and (iii) the Market Value is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to
the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption
trigger price described in Exhibit 4.5 to this report under the captions “Description of Securities—Public
Warrants—Redemption of warrants for cash when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00”
and “Description of Securities—Public Warrants—Redemption of warrants for cash when the price per share of
Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher
of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger described in Exhibit 4.5 to this report
under the caption “Description of Securities—Public Warrants—Redemption of warrants for cash when the price per
share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher
of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price. This may make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial business combination
with a target business.





37







An active trading market for our securities
may not develop or be maintained, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of our securities.



The price of our securities may vary significantly
due to one or more potential business combinations and general market or economic conditions. Furthermore, an active trading market for
our securities may never develop or, if developed, it may not be maintained. You may be unable to sell your securities unless an active
trading market develops and is maintained.



Because we must furnish our stockholders
with target business financial statements, we may lose the ability to complete an otherwise advantageous initial business combination
with some prospective target businesses.



The federal proxy rules require that a proxy statement
with respect to a vote on a business combination meeting certain financial significance tests include historical and/or pro forma
financial statement disclosure. We will include the same financial statement disclosure in connection with our tender offer documents,
whether or not they are required under the tender offer rules. These financial statements may be required to be prepared in accordance
with, or be reconciled to, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), or international
financial reporting standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), depending on the circumstances
and the historical financial statements may be required to be audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”). These financial statement requirements may limit the pool of potential target businesses
we may acquire because some targets may be unable to provide such financial statements in time for us to disclose such financial statements
in accordance with federal proxy rules and complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period.



We are an emerging growth company and a smaller
reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements
available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make our securities less attractive to investors and
may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.



We are an “emerging growth company”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting
requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not
being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations
regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding
advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be
an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if
the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of any second quarter of
a fiscal year, in which case we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the end of such fiscal year. Accordinglyo, stockholders
may not have access to certain information they may deem important. We cannot predict whether investors will find our securities less
attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result of our reliance
on these exemptions, the trading prices of our securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading
market for our securities and the trading prices of our securities may be more volatile.



Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act
exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies
(that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company
can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but
any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when
a financial accounting standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an
emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may
make comparison of our financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth
company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting
standards used.





38







Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting
company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced
disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a
smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates
equals or exceeds $250 million as of the end of that fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter and (2) our annual revenues equaled
or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year or the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals
or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter. To the extent we take advantage of such
reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison of our financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.



Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate our initial business combination, require substantial financial and management resources,
and increase the time and costs of completing an initial business combination, and present risks of non-compliance in the event we successfully
consummate our initial business combination.



Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires
that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31,
2022. Only in the event we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer, and no longer qualify as an emerging growth
company, will we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, for as long as we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required
to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting. The fact that we are a blank check company makes compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
particularly burdensome on us as compared to other public companies because a target business with which we seek to complete our initial
business combination may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of its internal controls.
The development of the internal control of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and
costs necessary to complete any such initial business combination. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the incumbent management team
of a business combination target will have the necessary experience or knowledge to develop the appropriate level of internal control
over financial reporting and otherwise maintain compliance with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If we complete
our business combination and the management team of the combined entity is unable to comply with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act, our operations might suffer and we could be materially and adversely affected.



Provisions in our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future
for our Class A common stock and could entrench management.



Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
contains provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that stockholders may consider to be in their best interests. These
provisions include the ability of the board of directors to designate the terms of and issue new series of preferred stock, which may
make more difficult the removal of management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing
market prices for our securities.



Section 203 of the DGCL affects the ability
of an “interested stockholder” to engage in certain business combinations for a period of three years following the time
that the stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder.” We have elected in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation
not to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Nevertheless, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions
that have the same effect as Section 203 of the DGCL, except that it provides that our sponsor, officers and directors, their affiliates
and their transferees will not be deemed to be “interested stockholders,” regardless of the percentage of our voting
stock owned by them, and will therefore not be subject to such restrictions. These charter provisions may limit the ability of third parties
to acquire control of our company.



Provisions in our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation and Delaware law may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.



Our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation requires (unless our board, acting on our behalf, consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (which
consent may be given at any time, including during the pendency of litigation)), to the fullest extent permitted by law, that
(i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary
duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee to us or our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a
claim against us, our directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation or bylaws, (iv) any action asserting a claim against us or our directors, officers or employees
governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware or (v) any other action asserting an “internal
corporate claim” as defined in Section 115 of the DGCL may, in each case, be brought by a stockholder (including a
beneficial owner) only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, except any action (A) as to which the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of
Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days
following such determination), (B) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of
Chancery, (C) for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (D) arising under the
Securities Act, as to which the Court of Chancery and the federal district court for the District of Delaware shall concurrently be
the sole and exclusive forums. Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application
of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, a court may determine that this provision is unenforceable, and to the
extent it is enforceable, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers, although
our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder.





39







Notwithstanding the foregoing, our amended and
restated certificate of incorporation provides that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or
liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States of America have exclusive jurisdiction.
Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created
by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for
federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations
thereunder. As noted above, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery and the federal
district court for the District of Delaware shall concurrently be the sole and exclusive forums for any action arising under the Securities
Act. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision, and our stockholders will not be deemed to
have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.



Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring
any interest in any shares of our capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of, and to have consented to, the forum provisions in our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions
is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (in this context, a “foreign action”) in the name
of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal
courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (in
this context, an “enforcement action”), and (y) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such enforcement
action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the foreign action as agent for such stockholder.



This forum selection clause may discourage claims
or limit stockholders’ ability to submit claims in a judicial forum that they find favorable and may result in additional costs
for a stockholder seeking to bring a claim. While we believe the risk of a court declining to enforce this forum selection clause is low,
if a court were to determine the forum selection clause to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs
in conjunction with our efforts to resolve the dispute in an alternative jurisdiction, which could result in a diversion of the time and
resources of our officers and directors and have a material adverse effect on us.



If our management team pursues a company
with operations or opportunities outside of the United States for our initial business combination, we may face additional burdens in
connection with investigating, agreeing to and completing such combination, and if we effect such initial business combination, we would
be subject to a variety of additional risks that may materially and adversely affect us.



If our management team pursues a company with operations
or opportunities outside of the United States for our initial business combination, we would be subject to risks associated with cross-border
business combinations, including in connection with investigating, agreeing to and completing our initial business combination, conducting
due diligence in a foreign jurisdiction, having such transaction approved by any local governments, regulators or agencies and changes
in the purchase price based on fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.



If we effect our initial business combination with
such a company, we would be subject to any special considerations or risks associated with companies operating in an international setting,
including any of the following:



• costs and difficulties inherent in managing
cross-border business operations and complying with commercial and legal requirements of overseas markets;



• rules and regulations regarding currency
redemption;





40







• imposition of withholding taxes;



• laws governing the manner in which future
business combinations may be effected;



• tariffs and trade barriers;



• regulations related to customs and import/export
matters;



• longer payment cycles;



• tax consequences, such as variations in
tax law as compared to the United States;



• changes in local regulations as part of
a response to the COVID-19 pandemic;



• currency fluctuations and exchange controls,
including devaluations and other exchange rate movements;



• rates of inflation, price instability and
interest rate fluctuations;



• challenges in collecting accounts receivable;



• cultural and language differences;



• employment regulations;



• crime, strikes, riots, civil disturbances,
terrorist attacks, natural disasters and wars;



• deterioration of political relations with
the United States;



• obligatory military service by personnel;
and



• government appropriation of assets.



We may not be able to adequately address these
additional risks. If we were unable to do so, we may be unable to complete such initial business combination or, if we complete such initial
business combination, our operations might suffer, either of which may materially and adversely affect us.



If our management following our initial business
combination is unfamiliar with U.S. securities laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws, which
could lead to various regulatory issues.



Following our initial business combination, one
or more of our officers and directors could resign from their positions, and the management of the target business at the time of the
business combination could remain in place. Management of the target business may not be familiar with U.S. securities laws. If new management
is unfamiliar with U.S. securities laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws. This could be expensive
and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues, which may materially and adversely affect us.



Cyber incidents or attacks directed at us
could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial loss.



We depend on digital technologies, including information
systems, infrastructure and cloud applications and services, including those of third parties with which we may deal. Sophisticated and
deliberate attacks on, or security breaches in, our systems or infrastructure, or the systems or infrastructure of third parties or the
cloud, could lead to corruption or misappropriation of our assets, proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. As an early
stage company without significant investments in data security protection, we may not be sufficiently protected against such occurrences.
We may not have sufficient resources to adequately protect against, or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to, cyber incidents.
It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have material adverse consequences on operations and financial
results.





41







Terrorist attacks, communal disturbances,
civil unrest and other acts of violence or war may result in a loss of investor confidence and a decline in the value of our securities
and trading price of our shares following our initial business combination.



Terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts
of violence or war may negatively affect the markets in which we may operate our business following our initial business combination and
also adversely affect the worldwide financial markets. Events of this nature in the future, as well as social and civil unrest, could
influence the economy in which our target business operates, and could have a material adverse effect on us, the value of our securities
and the trading price of our shares following our initial business combination.



Since only holders of our founder shares
have the right to vote on the election of directors and to remove directors prior to consummation of our initial business combination,
the NYSE considers us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of the NYSE and, as a result, we qualify
for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.



Prior to consummation of our initial business
combination, only holders of our founder shares have the right to vote on the election of directors and to remove directors prior to our
initial business combination, and such rights may only be amended by a resolution passed by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of our Class B common stock. As a result, the NYSE considers us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning
of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE. Under those corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the
voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with
certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that:



| | · | we have a board that includes a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the NYSE;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | we have a compensation committee of our board that is comprised entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing

We do not intend to have a compensation committee
prior to consummation of our initial business combination. Except for not having a compensation committee, we do not intend to utilize
these exemptions and intend to comply with the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE, subject to applicable phase-in rules. However,
if we determine in the future to utilize some or all of these exemptions, you will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders
of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

None.



Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities



On May 27, 2021 our sponsor purchased an aggregate
of 7,187,500 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On November 24, 2021, our sponsor surrendered 1,437,500 founder
shares for no consideration, thereby reducing the aggregate number of founder shares outstanding to 5,750,000, resulting in an effective
purchase price paid for the founder shares of approximately $0.004 per share, and reducing the aggregate number of founder shares owned
by our sponsor to 5,750,000. The sale of the founder shares was made pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act.



As described above under the heading “Business
 – General” in Part I of this report, on December 14, 2021, we consummated the Private Placement, with our sponsor, of an aggregate
of 11,700,000 private placement warrants at a price of $1.00 per private placement warrant, generating gross proceeds to us of $11,700,000.
On December 14, 2021, a total of $234,600,000 of the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in the Trust Account.
The private placement warrants are identical to the warrants sold as part of the units in our IPO except that, so long as they are
held by our sponsor or its permitted transferees: (1) they will not be redeemable by us, except under certain limited circumstances;
(2) they (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions,
be transferred, assigned or sold, until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination; (3) they may always
be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis; and (4) the holders thereof (including with respect to the shares of common stock
issuable upon exercise of these warrants) are entitled to registration rights. The sale of the private placement warrants was made pursuant
to an exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.



Use of Proceeds from the Initial Public Offering



On December 14, 2021, we consummated our IPO
of 23,000,000 units, which included 3,000,000 units issued pursuant to the exercise in full by Bofa Securities, Inc., the underwriter,
of its over-allotment option, which option was granted to the underwriter under the underwriting agreement for our IPO. The units
were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, and our IPO generated gross proceeds of $230,000,000. The securities sold in our IPO were
registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-261370). The SEC declared the registration
statement effective on December 9, 2021.



At the time of the consummation of our IPO, we
paid a total of $4,600,000 in underwriting fees related to our IPO. In addition, the underwriter agreed to defer $8,050,000 in underwriting
fees.



On December 14, 2021, a total of $234,600,000
of the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in the Trust Account. The net proceeds deposited into the
Trust Account remain on deposit in the Trust Account and are available for a business combination, assuming no redemptions, after
payment of $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fees, before fees and expenses associated with our initial business combination. The
proceeds held in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in
money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S.
government treasury obligations.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers



None.



| | Item 6. | [Reserved].
| | ------- | -----------



| | Item 7. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
| | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We are a recently incorporated blank check company
incorporated as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock
purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have not identified any business combination
target. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds from our IPO and the Private
Placement, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, capital stock and debt.



On December 14, 2021, we completed our IPO of 23,000,000
units (including 3,000,000 units pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriter’s over-allotment option) and the Private Placement
of an aggregate of 11,700,000 private placement warrants. An aggregate of $234,600,000 in proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement
has been placed in the Trust Account.



For the period from April 13, 2021 (inception)
through December 31, 2021, we had net income of $2,325,692, which consisted of formation and operating expenses of $838,998, offset
by a gain of $3,164,000 for the change in fair value of the warrant liability and an unrealized gain of $690 on marketable securities
held in the Trust Account.



Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events



We did not commence operations until after the
closing of our IPO in December 2021, and we have not engaged in any significant operations nor generated any operating revenues to date.
We will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial business combination. We will generate non-operating
income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents. There has been no material adverse change in our financial condition
since the date of our audited financial statements. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur increased expenses as a result of
being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



The funds in the Trust Account have been and will
continue to be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds that meet
certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. We intend
to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the funds held
in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and deferred underwriting fees) to complete our initial business combination. Delaware franchise
tax is based on our authorized shares or on our assumed par and non-par capital, whichever yields a lower result. Under the authorized
shares method, each share is taxed at a graduated rate based on the number of authorized shares with a maximum aggregate tax of $200,000
per year. Under the assumed par value capital method, Delaware taxes each $1,000,000 of assumed par value capital at the rate of $400;
where assumed par value would be (1) our total gross assets, divided by (2) our total issued shares of common stock, multiplied by (3)
the number of our authorized shares. Our annual franchise tax obligation is expected to be capped at the maximum amount of annual franchise
taxes payable by us as a Delaware corporation of $200,000. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and
other income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account. We expect the only taxes payable by us out of the funds in the Trust Account
will be income and franchise taxes. We expect the interest earned on the amount in the Trust Account will be sufficient to pay our taxes.
To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination,
the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses,
make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.



As of December 31, 2021, we held $1,950,543
outside the Trust Account. We expect to use these funds primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due
diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices or similar locations of prospective target businesses or
their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure,
negotiate and complete a business combination, and to pay taxes to the extent the interest earned on the Trust Account is not
sufficient to pay our taxes.





44







As of December 31, 2021, we had working capital
of $1,010,298. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business
combination, our management team or our sponsor or any of their respective affiliates may, but none of them is obligated to, loan us funds
as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust
Account released to us. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital
held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up
to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. These warrants
would be identical to the private placement warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements
exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our management team, or our sponsor or any of
their affiliates, if any, as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all
rights to seek access to funds in the Trust Account.



Prior to our initial business combination, we expect
our primary liquidity requirements to include approximately $300,000 for legal, accounting, due diligence, travel and other expenses in
connection with any business combinations; $150,000 for legal and accounting fees related to regulatory reporting requirements; $650,000
for directors and officers insurance premiums; $270,000 for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services pursuant
to our agreement with our sponsor to pay our sponsor $15,000 per month for these services from December 10, 2021 until our initial business
combination or liquidation; $85,000 for NYSE continued listing fees; and approximately $195,000 for working capital to cover miscellaneous
expenses (including franchise taxes net of anticipated interest income).



These amounts are estimates and may differ materially
from our actual expenses. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds held outside the Trust Account to pay commitment fees for financing,
fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision
(a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors
on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have
any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business,
the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of
the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result
of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with
respect to, prospective target businesses.



We do not believe we will need to raise additional
funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. However, if our
estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination
are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial
business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial business combination or because
we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our initial business combination, in which
case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. In addition, we may target businesses
with enterprise values that are greater than we could acquire with the net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement, and, as a
result, if the cash portion of the purchase price exceeds the amount available from the Trust Account, net of amounts needed to satisfy
redemptions by public stockholders, we may be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial business combination.
We may also obtain financing prior to the closing of our initial business combination to fund our working capital needs and transaction
costs in connection with our search for and completion of our initial business combination. There is no limitation on our ability to raise
funds through the issuance of equity or equity-linked securities or through loans, advances or other indebtedness in connection with our
initial business combination, including pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop arrangements we may enter into. Subject to
compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our business combination.
If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced
to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient,
we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.





45







Commitments and Contractual Obligations



Pursuant to the underwriting
agreement for our IPO, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per unit sold, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred
fee is payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a business combination
within the prescribed time period.



We have entered into a letter agreement with our sponsor pursuant to which we are required to pay our sponsor a total of $15,000 per month
for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services, commencing on December 10, 2021, the date that our securities
were first listed on the NYSE, through the earlier of our initial business combination and our liquidation.



Please refer to Note 8 –
Commitments and Contingencies of our financial statements for more information on our commitments and contractual obligations.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



Please refer to the information in Note 2 —
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our financial statements for a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates.



| | Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
| | -------- | -----------------------------------------------------------



The net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placements
held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting
certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.
Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.



| | Item 8. | Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Reference is made to Pages F-1 through F-19 comprising
a portion of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



| | Item 9. | Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial
Disclosure.
| | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



None.



| | Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures.
| | -------- | ------------------------



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



Disclosure controls are
procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange
Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
chief executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation
of our current Chief Executive Officer who also acts as our principal accounting officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and procedures as of December 31, 2021, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.



We do not expect that
our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter
how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and
procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,
and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures,
no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies
and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the
likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions.



Management’s Report on Internal Controls
Over Financial Reporting



This Annual Report on
Form 10-K does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation
report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public
companies.





46







Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting



There were no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Jeb Spenceris our Chief Executive Officer
and a member of our board of directors. He is the co-founder and managing partner of TVC Capital, a software focused, growth equity fund,
a position he has held since 2006. He has been a chief executive officer, investor and board member of SaaS companies and currently serves
on the board of directors of 5 software companies: Dama Financial (since 2022); SpringBig (since 2020); SmartAction (since 2018); MediaPlatform

a leading provider of automation software for the mortgage industry which is now a subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc (NYSE:

banks and credit unions, and loan originators in the United States. Mr. Spencer holds a B.A in Political Science from Boston College and
an MBA from Harvard Business School.



We believe that Mr. Spencer’s extensive
experience with software focused companies, including his experience as a board member of a number of these companies (including a
former public company) and as a chief executive officer of certain of these companies, his business experience in investing in
private companies, as well experience with sales of private companies qualify him to serve on our board.

an MBA from Harvard Business School and a J.D. from Yale Law School.



We believe that Mr. Stone’s vast experience
with investing in private and public companies, including a mortgage software company, as well as his experience as a board member qualify
him to serve on our board.

We believe that Mr. Anderman’s broad experience
as an entrepreneur and chief executive officer, his years of experience as the chairman of the board of directors of a public company,
as well as his experience with mergers and acquisitions qualify him to serve on our board.



Matthew Hansenis a member of our board

company with a digital platform for loan officers, borrowers and real estate agents. SimpleNexus was acquired by nCino, Inc. (NASDAQ:

of a mortgage software focused company qualify him to serve on our board.

48

her current role as the chief executive officer of a mortgage software company, as well as her experience as a board member qualify her
to serve on our board.



David Winfield is a member of our board
of directors and is currently an advisor to the Executive Director of the Major League Baseball Players Association, a position he has
held since 2013. He is a former MLB player with broad experiences in professional sports, business, media and philanthropy. In his 22
year MLB career following his collegiate baseball career at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Mr. Winfield won a World Series
Championship, appeared in 12 All-Star Games and was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.
Subsequent to his baseball career, in 1995, he established Winfield & Winfield, Ltd., a personal services corporation that provides
business development, consulting and advocacy services for corporate, sports, education and government entities, where he has served as
President since its inception. In addition, Mr. Winfield created and headed the Winfield Foundation, a foundation which provided health
and education services to youth and communities nationwide from 1975 to 1997.



We believe that Mr. Winfield’s years of business
experience in providing various services to a range of entities, his experience as an officer of a private company, as well as his extensive
experience in an advisory role for a major sports association qualify him to serve on our board.



Number and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors



Our board of directors consists of seven members.
Only holders of our founder shares have the right to elect and to remove our directors prior to consummation of our initial business combination,
and holders of our public shares will not have the right to vote on the election or removal of directors during such time. These provisions
of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation may only be amended if approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of our Class B common stock. Approval of our initial business combination will require the affirmative vote of a majority of our
board directors. The term of office of our initial directors will expire at our first annual meeting of stockholders. We may not hold
an annual meeting of stockholders until after we consummate our initial business combination. Any vacancy on our board of directors, including
a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our board of directors, may be filled by vote of a majority of our directors then in office.



Our officers are appointed by the board of directors
and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. Our board of directors is authorized
to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our bylaws as it deems appropriate. Our bylaws provide that our officers may consist of
a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, a Secretary, Assistant Secretaries, a Treasurer and
such other offices as may be determined by the board of directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors



Our board of directors has one standing
committee: an audit committee. Because we are a “controlled company” under applicable rules of the NYSE, we are not
required to have a compensation committee composed of independent directors, nor do we have a nominating and corporate governance
committee. Our audit committee is composed of a majority of independent directors. Subject to phase-in rules, the rules of the NYSE
and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent
directors. We are relying on the phase-in rule exemption that allows us to have our audit committee be comprised of only a majority
of independent directors until one year from December 9, 2021, the date of effectiveness of the registration statement for our IPO.
As our audit committee is composed of a majority of independent directors and a majority of its members are “audit committee
financial experts,” we do not believe that our reliance on this exemption would materially adversely affect the ability of our
audit committee to act independently or to otherwise satisfy its responsibilities. The audit committee operates under a charter that
has been approved by our board and has the composition and responsibilities described below.



Audit Committee



We have established an audit committee of our board
of directors. The members of our audit committee are Sigmund Anderman, Jennifer Nuckles and Jared Stone, with Jennifer Nuckles serving
as chair of the audit committee.



Each member of the audit committee is
financially literate. In addition, our board of directors has determined that each of Sigmund Anderman and Jennifer Nuckles
qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules and has accounting or related
financial management expertise. Our board of directors has also determined that Sigmund Anderman and Jennifer Nuckles are
independent directors under applicable NYSE rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.



We have adopted an audit committee charter, which
details the purpose and principal functions of the audit committee, including:



| | · | assisting board oversight of (1) the integrity of our financial statements, (2) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements,
(3) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of our internal
audit function and independent registered public accounting firm;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm
and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | pre-approving all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm or any other registered
public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | reviewing and discussing with the independent registered public accounting firm all relationships the independent registered public
accounting firm has with us in order to evaluate their continued independence;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public accounting firm describing (1) the independent
registered public accounting firm’s internal quality-control procedures and (2) any material issues raised by the most recent internal
quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities,
within the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such
issues;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | meeting to review and discuss our annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements with management and the independent
registered public accounting firm, including reviewing our specific disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated
by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | reviewing with management, the independent registered public accounting firm, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory
or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports
that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting standards
or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Director Nominations



We do not have a standing nominating committee
though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required to do so by law or by the rules of the NYSE.
Our board of directors believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry out the responsibility of properly selecting or
approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee. As there is no standing nominating committee, we
do not have a nominating committee charter in place.



The board of directors will also consider director
candidates recommended for nomination by our stockholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election
at the next annual meeting of stockholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of stockholders). Our stockholders that wish to nominate
a director for election to our board of directors should follow the procedures set forth in our bylaws.



We have not formally established any specific,
minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating
nominees for director, our board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our
business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders.



Code of Ethics



We have adopted
a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees.



Availability of Documents



Our Code of Ethics and our audit committee
charter are available on our website www.southportone.com at the following location:
www.southportone.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents. We intend to disclose any amendments to, or waivers of, certain
provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.



| | Item 11. | Executive Compensation.
| | -------- | -----------------------



Executive Officer and Director Compensation



None of our officers or directors have received
any compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on December 10, 2021, the date that our units were first listed on the NYSE,
through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we will pay our sponsor a total of $15,000
per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services. In addition, our sponsor, officers, directors and
their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such
as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review
on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to our sponsor, officers, directors or our or any of their respective affiliates.



After the completion of our initial business combination,
officers and directors who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other compensation from the post-transaction company.
All compensation will be fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation
materials furnished to our stockholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely that the amount of such compensation
will be known at the time, because the directors of the post-transaction company will be responsible for determining executive officer
and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers after the completion of our initial business combination will be
determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of independent directors of the post-transaction
company.



We are not party to any agreements with our officers
and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements
may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business, and we do not believe that the ability
of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination should be a determining factor in our decision
to proceed with any potential business combination.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation



In the past year, Jeb Spencer, who serves, and
in the past year served, as our Chief Executive Officer, served as a member of the board of directors of SimpleNexus, a company in which
Cathleen Shreiner Gates, one of the members of our board of directors, currently serves, and in the past year served as chief executive
officer, and in which Matthew Hansen another member of our board of directors served as chief executive officer in the past year.



| | Item 12. | Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and
Related Stockholder Matters.
| | -------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The following table sets forth information regarding
the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 22, 2022, based on information obtained from the persons named below, with respect
to the beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock, by:



| | · | each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of our common stock;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | each of our executive officers and directors; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------



| | · | all our executive officers and directors as a group.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------



Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all
persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them.
The following table does not reflect record or beneficial ownership of the private placement warrants as these warrants are not exercisable
within 60 days of the date of this report.

As of March 22, 2022, our sponsor holds all of
our founder shares. Holders of our founder shares have the right to elect and to remove all of our directors prior to the consummation
of our initial business combination. Holders of our public shares do not have the right to elect any directors to our board of directors
prior to our initial business combination. In addition, because our sponsor holds all of our founder shares, our sponsor may be able to
effectively influence the outcome of all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including amendments to our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions.



Our sponsor purchased an aggregate of
11,700,000 private placement warrants in the Private Placement. Each private placement warrant entitles the holder thereof to
purchase one share of our Class A common stock at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. If we do not complete our initial
business combination by June 14, 2023, or during any Extension Period, the funds in the Trust Account, which includes a portion of
the proceeds from the Private Placement, will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares, and the private placement
warrants will expire worthless. The private placement warrants are subject to the transfer restrictions and are entitled to
registrations rights, in each case, described below. The private placement warrants will not be redeemable by us except in certain
redemption scenarios and will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by our management team or our sponsor or
their permitted transferees. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than our management team or our sponsor or
their permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by
the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units sold in our IPO. Otherwise, the private placement warrants have
terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold in our IPO.

Our sponsor, officers and directors are deemed
to be our “promoter” as such term is defined under the federal securities laws. Please see “Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions, and Director Independence” for additional information regarding our relationships with our promoters.



Transfers of Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants



The founder shares, private placement warrants
and any warrants issued upon conversion of working capital loans and any shares of Class A common stock issued upon conversion or exercise
thereof are each subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to lock-up provisions in letter agreements between us and our sponsor, officers
and directors. Those lock-up provisions provide that such securities are not transferable or salable (1) in the case of the founder shares,
until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of our initial business combination and (B) subsequent to our initial business
combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock
dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least
150 days after our initial business combination, or (y) the date following the completion of our initial business combination on which
we complete a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders
having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property, and (2) in the case of the private placement
warrants, any warrants issued upon conversion of working capital loans and the respective Class A common stock underlying such warrants,
until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination, except in each case (a) to our officers or directors, any affiliates
or family members of any of our officers or directors, our sponsor or any members of our sponsor, or any of its affiliates; (b) in the
case of an individual, by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member
of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual,
by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified
domestic relations order; (e) transfers by private sales or transfers made in connection with consummation of our initial business combination
at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of our liquidation prior to our
completion of our initial business combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of Delaware or our sponsor’s limited liability company
agreement, as amended, upon dissolution of our sponsor; or (h) in the event of our completion of a liquidation, merger, stock exchange,
reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common
stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination; or (i) to a nominee or
custodian of a person or entity to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (a) through (h) above, provided,
however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) and (i), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing
to be bound by these transfer restrictions and the other restrictions contained in the letter agreement.



Registration Rights



The holders of the founder shares, private placement
warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise
of the private placement warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the working capital loans and upon conversion of the founder shares)
are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement requiring us to register such securities for resale (in
the case of the founder shares, only after conversion to shares of Class A common stock). The holders of these securities are entitled
to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration 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. However, the registration rights agreement provides that we are not required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration
statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period as described above under “—Transfer of Founder
Shares and Private Placement Warrants.” We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration
statements.

| | Item 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
| | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



On May 27, 2021 our sponsor purchased an aggregate
of 7,187,500 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On November 24, 2021, our sponsor surrendered 1,437,500 founder
shares for no consideration, thereby reducing the aggregate number of founder shares outstanding to 5,750,000, resulting in an effective
purchase price paid for the founder shares of approximately $0.004 per share, and reducing the aggregate number of founder shares owned
by our sponsor to 5,750,000.



Our sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 11,700,000
private placement warrants for a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant in the Private Placement. As such, our sponsor’s at-risk capital
in this transaction is valued at $11,700,000. Each private placement warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class
A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein. The private placement warrants (including the
Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred,
assigned or sold by our sponsor or its permitted transferees until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination.



If any of our officers or directors becomes aware
of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual duties
or obligations to present the opportunity to such entity, he or she will honor these duties or obligations to present such business combination
opportunity to such entity prior to presenting such opportunity to us. Our officers and directors currently have other relevant fiduciary
or contractual duties or obligations that may take priority over their duties or obligations to us, and even when they do not have such
fiduciary or contractual duties or obligations, may choose to present business combination opportunities to other entities before presenting
them to us if they are not prohibited by our amended and restated certificate of incorporation from doing so.



Our sponsor, officers and directors or any of their
respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying
potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly
basis all payments that were made by us to our sponsor, officers, directors or our or any of their respective affiliates and will determine
which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.



We have entered into a letter agreement with our
sponsor pursuant to which we are required to pay our sponsor a total of $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial
and administrative services, commencing on December 10, 2021, the date that our securities were first listed on the NYSE. Upon the earlier
of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. Accordingly, assuming
the consummation of our initial business combination takes until June 14, 2023, our sponsor will be paid a total of $360,000 for these
services.



Our sponsor loaned us $350,000 under an unsecured promissory note to be used for a portion of the expenses of our IPO. These loans were
non-interest bearing, unsecured and were due at the earlier of May 31, 2022 and the closing of the IPO. These loans were repaid upon completion
of the IPO out of the $2,500,000 of offering proceeds that was allocated for the payment of offering expenses (other than underwriting
fees) and amounts not to be held in the Trust Account.



In order to fund working capital deficiencies or
finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our management team and our sponsor and any of
their respective affiliates may, but none of them is obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business
combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that our initial
business combination is not completed by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we may use a portion of the working capital held
outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to
$1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would
be identical to the private placement warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist
with respect to such loans. Prior to our initial business combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our management
team or our sponsor or any of their respective affiliates, if any, as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds
and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the Trust Account.



After our initial business combination, members
of our management team who remain with us, if any, may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the post-transaction company
with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation
materials, as applicable, furnished to our stockholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution
of such tender offer materials or at the time of a stockholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable,
as it will be up to the directors of the post-transaction company to determine executive officer and director compensation.



We have entered into a registration rights
agreement with respect to the founder shares, private placement warrants and warrants issued upon conversion of working capital
loans (if any) and shares of our Class A common stock issuable for conversion or exercise thereof, which is described under the
heading “Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters —
Registration Rights.”

Refer to Note 5 of our financial statements for
more information regarding our related party transactions.



Related Party Policy



We have not yet adopted a formal policy for the
review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. Accordingly, the transactions discussed above were not reviewed, approved
or ratified in accordance with any such policy.



We have adopted a Code of Ethics requiring us to
avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by our board of directors (or the
appropriate committee of our board) or as disclosed in our public filings with the SEC. Under our Code of Ethics, conflict of interest
situations will include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness)
involving our company.



In addition, our audit committee, pursuant to its
written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that we enter into such transactions.
An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be required
in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without
a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction.
Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or
any of their respective affiliates.



These procedures are intended to determine whether
any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director,
officer or employee.



To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have
agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with our sponsor, directors or officers unless
we, or a committee of independent directors, have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm which is a member of
FINRA or an independent accounting firm that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. There
will be no finder’s fees, reimbursement, consulting fee, monies in respect of any payment of a loan or other compensation paid by
us to our sponsor, officers or directors or our or any of their respective affiliates, for services rendered to us prior to or in connection
with the completion of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, the following payments
may be made to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates, and, if made prior to our initial business combination
will be made from funds held outside the Trust Account:



| | · | payment to our sponsor of a total of $15,000 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services;
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination;
and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | repayment of loans which may be made by our sponsor, officers or directors or their respective affiliates to fund working capital
deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the terms of which have not been
determined nor have any written agreements been executed with respect thereto. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into
warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



These payments may be funded using, if any, the
net proceeds from our IPO and the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account or, upon completion of the initial business combination,
from any amounts remaining from the proceeds of the Trust Account, if any, released to us in connection therewith.



Director Independence



We are a “controlled company”
within the meaning of the rules of the NYSE prior to the consummation of our initial business combination. As a controlled company,
we will not be required to comply with the rules of the NYSE that require that a majority of our board of directors be independent.
An “independent director” is defined generally as a person that, in the opinion of the company’s board of
directors, has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an
organization that has a relationship with the company). Our board has determined that each of Sigmund Anderman, Jennifer Nuckles and
David Winfield is an independent director under applicable NYSE rules, and that each of Sigmund Anderman, Matthew Hansen, Jennifer
Nuckles, Cathleen Schreiner Gates and David Winfield is an independent director under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Our
independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM



Stockholders and Board of Directors

Southport Acquisition Corporation

Del Mar, California



Opinion on the
Financial Statement



We have audited the accompanying balance sheet
of Southport Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021, the related statement of operations, changes
in  common stock subject to possible redemption and stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the period from April 13,
2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from April 13, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021,in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.



Going Concern
Uncertainty



The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, as of December
31, 2021, the Company does not have sufficient cash and working capital to sustain its operations which raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding this matter are also described in Note
1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.



Basis for Opinion



The financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our
audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”)
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.



We conducted our audit in accordance
with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were
we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.



Our audit included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SOUTHPORT ACQUISTION CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1.     Description
of Organization and Business Operations



Southport Acquisition Corporation.
(the “Company”) is a blank check company formed in Delaware on April 13, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating
a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or
more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the
Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.



As of December 31, 2021, the
Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period April 13, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 relates
to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (the “IPO”), and pursuit of a target company to effect a business
combination. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.



The registration statement
for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on December 9, 2021. On December 14, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO, which involved
the Company’s sale of 23,000,000 units (the “Units”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000,
which is discussed in Note 3. The 23,000,000 Units sold by the Company include 3,000,000 Units purchased by the underwriter for the
IPO pursuant to the full exercise of its option to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments. Simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private sale of an aggregate of 11,700,000 warrants (the “Private Placement
Warrants”) to Southport Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating
proceeds to the Company of $11,700,000.



Following the closing of
the IPO on December 14, 2021, $234,600,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of
the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States, which
will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment
company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined
by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination, (ii) the
redemption of any Public Shares (as defined in Note 3) properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation (a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to
provide its public stockholders the right to have their Public Shares redeemed in connection with an initial Business Combination or to
redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined
below) or (b) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity,
and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within
18 months from December 14, 2021 or during any extended time that the Company has to consummate its initial Business Combination
beyond such 18-month period (the “Combination Period”).



Risks and Uncertainties



Management is currently evaluating
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect
on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily
determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.



Going Concern



As of December 31, 2021,
the Company had $1,950,543 cash and $1,010,298 of working capital. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur
significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that these financial
statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through working capital loans whereby, the Sponsor, an affiliate
of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors can, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be
required (see Note 5). However, there is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business
Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2.     Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies



Basis of Presentation



The accompanying financial
statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”)
and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.



Emerging Growth Company



The Company is an “emerging
growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012
(the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable
to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the
independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations
regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding
advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.



Further, Section 102(b)(1)
of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until
private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class
of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS
Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging
growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period,
which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company,
as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company
nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential
differences in accounting standards used.



Use of Estimates



The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.



Making
estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating
its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.



Cash and Cash Equivalents



The Company considers all short-term investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company
had $1,950,543 of operating cash and no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021.



Cash and Marketable Securities Held
in Trust Account



Following
the closing of the IPO on December 14, 2021, an amount of $234,600,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and
the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in the Trust Account and may be invested only in U.S. government securities with
a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which
invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the earliest
to occur of: (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection
with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance
or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide its public stockholders the right to have their Public Shares redeemed in connection
with an initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business
Combination activity; and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company
is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.





F-8







Offering Costs Associated with IPO



The
Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A— “Expenses
of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that
are related to the IPO. Offering costs are charged to stockholders’ equity or the statement of operations based on the relative
value of the Public Warrants (defined below) and the Private Placement Warrants to the proceeds received from the Units sold upon the
completion of the IPO. Accordingly, on December 14, 2021, offering costs totaling $13,935,218 (consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting
fee, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $1,285,218 of actual offering costs were recognized with $609,514 included in accumulated
deficit as an allocation for the Public Warrants (defined below) and the Private Placement Warrants, and $13,325,704 included in additional
paid-in capital.



Fair Value of Financial Instruments



ASC Topic 820, Fair value Measurement, defines
fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market
participants.



Fair value measurements are classified on a three-tier hierarchy as
follows:



| | · | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such
as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its
own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers
are unobservable.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



In many cases, a valuation technique used to measure
fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy described above. The lowest level of significant input determines
the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy.



The fair value of the Company’s assets and
liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due
to its short-term nature.



Derivative Financial Instruments



The Company evaluates its
financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in
accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as
liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each
reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative
instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each
reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not
net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. As of December 31,
2021, derivative liabilities are comprised of the warrant liability of $17,216,000.





F-9







Warrant Liability



The Company accounts for warrants
for the Company’s common stock that are not indexed to its own shares as liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet. The warrants
are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other income (expense),
net on the statement of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the
exercise or expiration of the common stock warrants. At that time, the portion of the warrant liability related to the common stock warrants
will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital.



Fair Value Measurements



Fair value is defined as
the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid to transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements)
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:



| | · | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in
active markets;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly
observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets
that are not active; and
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring
an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs
or significant value drivers are unobservable.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption



The
Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification
("ASC") Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any)
is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that
feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events
not solely within the Company's control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’
equity. The Company's common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject
to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2021, 23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to
possible redemption is presented, at redemption value, as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s
balance sheet.



The
Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to
equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence
of additional capital, in accumulated deficit. On December 14, 2021, the Company recorded an accretion of $27,985,704, $1,404,425 of which
was recorded in additional paid-in capital and $26,581,279 was recorded in accumulated deficit. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has
recorded accretion of $27,986,394 to remeasure the value of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to $234,600,690.



Income taxes



The
Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset
and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed
for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible
amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.





F-10







ASC
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not
to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized
tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties
as of December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals
or material deviation from its position.



Net Income (Loss) Per Common Stock



The Company complies with accounting and disclosure
requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. The condensed statements of operations include a presentation of income
(loss) per Class A redeemable common stock and loss per non-redeemable common stock following the two-class method of income per common
stock. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the Class A redeemable common stock and non-redeemable common
stock, the Company first considered the total income (loss) allocable to both sets of stock. This is calculated using the total net income
(loss) less any dividends paid. For purposes of calculating net income (loss) per share, any remeasurement of the Class A common stock
subject to possible redemption was treated as dividends paid to the public stockholders. Subsequent to calculating the total income (loss)
allocable to both sets of stock, the Company split the amount to be allocated using a ratio of 80% for the Class A redeemable common stock
and 20% for the non-redeemable common stock for the period from April 13, 2021 (inception) to December 31, 2021, reflective of the respective
participation rights.



The following table reflects the calculation of
basic and diluted net loss per common stock (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Related Parties



Parties, which can be a corporation
or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise
significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related
if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.



Concentration of Credit Risk



Financial instruments that
potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times,
may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. At December 31, 2021, the Company has not experienced losses on this
account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In August 2020, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own
Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The new guidance eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible
instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity's own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives
because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts
that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. This guidance is effective as of January 1, 2022 (early adoption
is permitted effective January 1, 2021). The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated standard will have on its financial
position, results of operations or financial statement disclosure.



The Company has considered
all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on the financial
condition based on the current information.



Note 3.     Initial
Public Offering



At the closing of the IPO
on December 14, 2021 the Company sold 23,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s
Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value (each a “Public Share”), and one-half of one warrant of the Company (each a “Public
Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per
share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).



Upon the closing of the IPO
on December 14, 2021, $234,600,000 ($10.20 per Unit sold in the IPO) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the
sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in the Trust Account. The amounts held in the Trust Account will be invested in U.S. government
securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less
or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment
Company Act, as determined by the Company. As of December 14, 2021, only $234,600,000 was held in the Trust Account. In addition, as of
December 14, 2021, $2,034,324 of cash was not held in the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.



Transaction costs of the
IPO amounted to $13,935,218 consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting discount, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting discount and $1,285,218
of actual offering costs.



Note 4.     Private
Placement



The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 11,700,000
Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant ($11,700,000 in the aggregate) in a private placement that closed simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO.



Each Private Placement Warrant is
exercisable for one whole Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. $9,200,000 of the proceeds
from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the IPO placed in the Trust Account. If the Company
does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants and the underlying securities
will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable (except as described in Note 7 below under
 “—Redemption of warrants for Class A common stock when the price per Class A common stock equals or exceeds
$10.00”) and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

Note 5.Related
Party Transactions



Founder Shares



On
May 27, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 7,187,500 shares of Class B common stock to the Sponsor for a purchase price of $25,000.
On November 24, 2021, the Sponsor surrendered 1,437,500 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock for no consideration, resulting
in there being an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock outstanding (the “Founder Shares”),
up to 750,000 of which were then subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised in full by the underwriter
for the IPO. On December 13, 2021, the underwriter for the IPO exercised its over-allotment option in full, with the related closing of
the additional 3,000,000 covered by the option occurring on December 14, 2021. Accordingly, no Founder Shares remain subject to forfeiture.



The
Sponsor agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to
occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger,
capital stock exchange or similar transaction that results in the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares
of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of the Company’s Class
A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and
the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, the Founder
Shares will be released from the lock-up.



Related Party Loans



The
Sponsor  agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $350,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note
(the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing and was payable on the completion of the IPO. The Company fully repaid the
outstanding balance on the Note on December 14, 2021.



In
addition, in order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s
Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds
as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a
Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible
into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital
Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company
may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account
would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of December 31, 2021, no Working Capital Loans were outstanding.



Administrative Support Agreement



Commencing on December 10, 2021 and until completion
of the Company’s initial Business Combination or liquidation, the Company is required to pay the Sponsor $15,000 per month for administrative
support and services.



Note 6.     Stockholders’
Equity



Preferred stock — The
Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At December 31, 2021,
there were no preferred stock issued or outstanding.



Class A common stock
 — The Company is authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of
$0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At December 31, 2021, there were
23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, subject to possible redemption.





F-13







Class B common stock
 — The Company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of Class B, $0.0001 par value, common stock. Holders of the
Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. On May 27, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 7,187,500 shares
of Class B common stock to the Sponsor for a purchase price of $25,000. On November 24, 2021, the Sponsor surrendered 1,437,500 shares
of Class B common stock for no consideration, resulting in there being an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.
As of December 31, 2021, as a result of the above surrender, there were 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.



The shares of Class B common
stock will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at the time of the Business Combination on a
one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like. In the case
that additional shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess
of the amounts sold in the IPO and related to the closing of an initial Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common
stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares
of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as converted
basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding upon the completion of the IPO
plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with an initial Business Combination
(net of the number of shares of Class A common stock redeemed in connection with an initial Business Combination), excluding any shares
or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business Combination and any warrants issued upon the conversion
of Working Capital Loans. Holders of shares of Class B common stock may also elect to convert their shares of Class B common stock into
an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment as provided above, at any time prior to a Business Combination.



The Company may issue additional
common stock or preferred stock to complete its Business Combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of its Business
Combination.



Note 7. Warrants



The Company accounts for 23,200,000 warrants issued
in connection with the IPO (11,500,000 Public Warrants and the 11,700,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance
contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each
warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company classifies each warrant as a liability at its fair value. Offering costs
were allocated to the Class A common stock and Public Warrants, and the amounts allocated to the Public Warrants was expensed immediately.
This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted
to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.



Warrants – Public Warrants
may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public
Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the consummation of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years
from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or the Company’s liquidation.



The Company is not obligated to deliver any
Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant
exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A common stock issuable
upon exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company
satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No Public Warrant are
exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company is not obligated to issue any shares of Class A common stock to
holders seeking to exercise their Public Warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified
under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.





F-14







The registration statement for the IPO (the “IPO
Registration Statement”) registered the sale for the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination,
it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a post-effective amendment to the IPO Registration Statement or a new registration
statement, in the Company’s discretion, with the SEC, under the Securities Act covering the sale of the Class A common stock
issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment
or new registration statement, as the case may be, to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of
Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement
covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective by the 60th business day
after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and
during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless
basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.



Redemption of warrants when the price per
share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00.   Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the
Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants for redemption:



| | · | in whole and not in part;
| | - | -------------------------

| | · | at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;
| | - | ---------------------------------------

| | · | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for
stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period
ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Redemption of warrants when the price per
Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00.   Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem
the outstanding warrants:



| | · | in whole and not in part;
| | - | -------------------------

| | · | at a price of $0.10 per warrant;
| | - | --------------------------------

| | · | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants
on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares of Class A common stock determined by reference to an agreed
table based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of Class A common stock;

| | · | if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per Public Share (as adjusted)

the warrant holders; and

Public Warrants, as described above.

The Company will not redeem the warrants as
described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the sale of the shares of Class A common stock
issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock
is available throughout the 30-day redemption period (or, in the case of a redemption described above under “Redemption of
warrants when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00,” the Company requires or permits the
Public Warrants to be exercised on a cashless basis as described below), except, in the case of a redemption described above under
 “Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00,” if the sale of those shares
of Class A common stock pursuant to the cashless exercise of the warrants is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. If
and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if the sale of the shares
of Class A common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state
securities laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.





F-15







If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption,
the Company’s management will have the option to require or permit all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so
on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable
upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary
dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within
the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such
funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust
Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.



In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional
shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial
Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue
price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, (i) in the case of any such
issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable,
prior to such issuance, and (ii) without taking into account the transfer of Founder Shares or Private Placement Warrants (including if
such transfer is effectuated as a surrender to the Company and subsequent reissuance by the Company) by the Sponsor in connection with
such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of
the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business Combination on the
date of the consummation of such initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price
of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the
Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise
price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued
Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the
greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted
(to the nearest cent) to be equal to the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.



The Private Placement Warrants are identical to
the Public Warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable
upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion
of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable
in certain redemption scenarios and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the initial purchasers thereof or their
permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers thereof or their permitted
transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by such holders
on the same basis as the Public Warrants.



If a tender offer, exchange or redemption
offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of the Class A common stock and upon completion of such offer, the offeror
owns beneficially more than 50% of the outstanding Class A common stock, the holder of the warrant shall be entitled to receive the
highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a stockholder if such
warrant had been exercised, accepted such offer and all of the Class A common stock held by such holder had been purchased pursuant
to the offer. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of the Class A common stock in the applicable event is
payable in the form of common equity in the successor entity that is listed on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an
established over-the-counter market, and if the holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following
the public disclosure of the consummation of the applicable event by the Company, the warrant exercise price shall be reduced by an
amount equal to the difference (but in no event less than zero) of (i) the warrant price in effect prior to such reduction minus
(ii) (A) the Per Share Consideration (as defined in the warrant agreement) minus (B) the value of the warrant based on the
Black-Scholes Warrant Value for a Capped American Call on Bloomberg Financial Markets.





F-16







The Company expects to account for the Public
Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liabilities in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts
in Entity’s Own Equity. Because the Company does not control the occurrence of events, such as a tender offer or exchange, that
may trigger cash settlement of the warrants where not all of the stockholders also receive cash, the warrants do not meet the criteria
for equity treatment thereunder, as such, the warrants must be recorded as derivative liability.



Additionally, certain adjustments to the settlement
amount of the Private Placement Warrants are based on a variable that is not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed”
option as defined under ASC 815-40, and thus the Private Placement Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock
and not eligible for an exception from derivative accounting.



The accounting treatment of derivative financial
instruments requires that the Company record a derivative liability upon the issuance of the warrants at the closing of this offering.
Accordingly, the Company expects to classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value. The Public Warrants will be allocated a portion
of the proceeds from the issuance of the Units equal to its fair value determined with the assistance of a professional independent valuation
firm. The warrant liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability
will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company will
reassess the classification of the warrants at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the
period, the warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.



Note 8.     Commitments
and Contingencies



Registration rights



The
holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans
(and in each case holders of the underlying securities thereof, as applicable) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration
rights agreement signed on December 9, 2021, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder
Shares, only after conversion to our Class A common stock). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands,
excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back”
registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination
and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration
rights agreement provides that the Company is not required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to
become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period with respect to such securities. The Company will bear the expenses
incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.



Underwriting Agreement



The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of the IPO to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments,
if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discount. On December 13, 2021, the underwriter exercised the option in full, closing
the sale of the 3,000,000 additional Units on December 14, 2021. The underwriter was paid an underwriting commission of $4,600,000 upon
the closing of the IPO. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate.
The deferred fee is payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes
a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Note 9.     Recurring
Fair Value Measurements



At
December 31, 2021, the Company’s warrant liability was valued at $17,216,000. Under the guidance in ASC 815-40, the Public Warrants
and the Private Placement Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment. As such, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement
Warrants must be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. This valuation is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date.
With each re-measurement, the valuations will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s
statement of operations.



The
following table presents fair value information as of December 31, 2021, of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that
were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized
to determine such fair value. The Company’s warrant liability is based on a valuation model utilizing management judgment and pricing
inputs from observable and unobservable markets with less volume and transaction frequency than active markets. Significant deviations
from these estimates and inputs could result in a material change in fair value. The fair value of the warrant liability is classified
within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.



The
following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s assets and liabilities that were accounted for
at fair value on a recurring basis:



|                                                     |  | (Level 1) |             |  | (Level 2) |   |   | (Level 3) |

Measurement



The Company established the
initial fair value for the warrants on December 31, 2021, the date of the consummation of the Company’s IPO. The Company used a
Black-Scholes-Merton formula to value the warrants. The Company allocated the proceeds received from (i) the sale of Units (which is inclusive
of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one Public Warrant), (ii) the sale of Private Placement Warrants, and (iii) the issuance
of Class B common stock, first to the warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds
allocated to Class A common stock subject to possible redemption (temporary equity), Class A common stock (permanent equity) and Class
B common stock (permanent equity) based on their relative fair values at the initial measurement date.



The key inputs into the lattice
model and Monte Carlo simulation model formula were as follows at December 31, 2021:

The income tax provision for
the year ended December 31, 2021 consists of the following:

As of December 31, 2021, the
Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards of $143,562 that may be carried forward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2021, the
Company has gross state NOL carryforwards of $143,562 which begin to expire in 2041.



In assessing the realization
of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled
reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration
of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the
deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the change in the
valuation allowance was $215,781.



A reconciliation of the federal
income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate at December 31, 2021 is as follows:



|                                            |  | December 31,  2021 |

|Change in valuation allowance               |  |                    | 9.28  
|Income tax provision                        |  |                    | —     



The Company’s effective
tax rates for the periods presented differ from the expected (statutory) rates due to changes in fair value in warrants and the recording
of full valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.



The Company files income tax
returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities. The Company’s tax returns
for the year ended December 31, 2021 remain open and subject to examination. The Company considers Delaware to be a significant state
tax jurisdiction.
