FTAC
PARNASSUS ACQUISITION CORP.

 

DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES

 

The
following summary of the material terms of the securities of FTAC Parnassus Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“we,”
“us,” “our” or the “Company”), is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences
of such securities and is subject to and qualified by reference to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended
and restated bylaws and the warrant agreement, dated March 11, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
(the “warrant agreement”), in each case incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Report”), and applicable Delaware law, including the Delaware General Corporation
Law, or DGCL. We urge you to read our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws and the warrant
agreement in their entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of our securities.

 

Pursuant
to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our authorized capital stock consists of 60,000,000 shares of Class A common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated
preferred stock, $0.0001 par value.

 

Units

 

Public
Units

 

Each
unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-fourth of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase
one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant
holder may exercise his, her or its warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. This means that only a whole
warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and
only whole warrants will trade. Accordingly, unless you purchase at least four units, you will not be able to receive or trade a whole
warrant.

 

The
Class A common stock and warrants comprising the units began separate trading on May 3, 2021. Holders have the option to continue to
hold units or separate their units into the component securities. Holders need to have their brokers contact our transfer agent in order
to separate the units into shares of Class A common stock and warrants.

 

Placement
Units

 

The
placement units (including the placement warrants or placement shares included therein) will not be transferable, assignable or salable
until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (subject to certain limited exceptions) and will have certain
registration rights. Otherwise, the placement units are identical to the units sold in the initial public offering except that the placement
warrants included therein, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, (i) will not be redeemable
by us, (ii) may not (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants), subject to certain limited
exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination, (iii) may
be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis, and (iv) will be entitled to registration rights.

 

In
order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination,
our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may
be required. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender at
the time of the business combination. The units would be identical to the placement units.

 

    

     

    

 

Common
Stock

 

Common
stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of our Class
B common stock have the right to elect all of our directors prior to the consummation of our initial business combination. On any other
matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders, holders of our Class B common stock and holders of our Class A common stock vote together
as a single class, except as required by applicable law or stock exchange rule. These provisions of our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation may only be amended if approved by a majority of at least 90% of our common stock voting at a stockholder meeting. Unless
specified in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or as required by applicable law or stock exchange rules,
the affirmative vote of a majority of our shares of common stock that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our
stockholders (other than the election of directors). The board of directors is divided into two classes, each of which will generally
serve for a term of two years with only one class elected in each year. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of
directors. Our stockholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds
legally available therefor.

 

Because
our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 60,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, if
we were to enter into a business combination, we may (depending on the terms of such a business combination) be required to increase
the number of shares of Class A common stock which we are authorized to issue at the same time as our stockholders vote on the business
combination to the extent we seek stockholder approval in connection with our business combination.

 

We
will provide all public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the consummation of
our initial business combination, either in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the business combination or by means
of a tender offer, 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 any amounts representing deferred underwriting
commissions and interest earned on the trust account, less any interest released to us for the payment of taxes, divided by the number
of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein and any limitations (including but not limited to cash
requirements) agreed to in connection with the negotiation of terms of a proposed business combination.

 

The
initial holders, our officers and directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and placement
shares, as applicable, (i) in connection with the consummation of a business combination, (ii) 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 redeem 100%
of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023 and (iii) if we fail to consummate
a business combination by March 16, 2023 or if we liquidate prior to March 16, 2023. The initial holders and our officers and directors
have also agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to public shares in connection with the consummation of a business combination
and 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 redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023. However,
the initial holders and our officers and directors will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to any public shares held by them
if we fail to consummate a business combination by March 16, 2023. To the extent our initial stockholders or purchasers of placement
units transfer any of these securities to certain permitted transferees, such permitted transferees will agree, as a condition to such
transfer, to waive these same redemption rights. If we submit our initial business combination to our public stockholders for a vote,
our sponsor, the other initial holders, our officers and our directors, have agreed to vote their respective founder shares, placement
shares and any public shares held by them in favor of our initial business combination.

 

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 the law or stock exchange listing requirement. We currently intend
to conduct redemptions pursuant to a stockholder vote unless stockholder approval is not required by applicable law or stock exchange
listing requirement and we choose to conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC 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 legal reasons, we will, pursuant
to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and
file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to consummating our initial business combination. Our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation requires these tender offer documents to contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial
business combination and the redemption rights as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules. If, however, stockholder approval of
the transaction is required by law or NASDAQ, or we decide to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, we will, like
many blank check companies, offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant
to the tender offer rules. 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 initial stockholders, officers and directors
will count towards this quorum and have agreed to vote any founder shares, placement 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.

 

    2

     

    

 

Assuming
our initial business combination is approved, each public stockholder may elect to redeem his, her or its public shares irrespective
of whether he, she or it votes for or against the proposed transaction, for cash equal to a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then
on deposit in the trust account, including interest but less interest released to us to pay taxes or dissolution costs.

 

Pursuant
to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, if we are unable to complete our business combination by March 16, 2023, we
will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business
days thereafter, 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 any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account, less any interest released to us to pay
our franchise and income taxes and up to $100,000 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 (iii) 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. Our initial holders,
officers and directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and placement shares they hold
(i) in connection with the consummation of a business combination, (ii) 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 redeem 100% of our public shares
if we do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023 and (iii) if we fail to consummate a business combination
by March 16, 2023 or if we liquidate prior to March 16, 2023. The initial holders, our officers and directors have also agreed to waive
their redemption rights with respect to public shares in connection with the consummation of a business combination and 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 redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023. However, the initial holders,
our officers and directors will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to any public shares held by them if we fail to consummate
a business combination or liquidate by March 16, 2023.

 

If
we liquidate, dissolve or wind up after our initial business combination, our stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any,
having preference over the common stock. Our stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund
provisions applicable to our common stock, except that upon the consummation of our initial business combination, subject to the limitations
described herein, we will provide our stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of our common stock for cash equal to
their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned
on the trust account, less any interest released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes and up to $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses.

 

Founder
Shares

 

There
are 8,563,333 shares of our Class B common stock, or founder shares, outstanding. Our sponsor and Millennium purchased an aggregate of
690,000 placement shares contained in the placement units in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the completion of
the initial public offering. The founder shares and placement shares are each identical to the shares of Class A common stock included
in the units, and holders of founder shares or placement shares have the same stockholder rights as public stockholders, except that
(i) only holders of the founder shares have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to our initial business combination;
(ii) the founder shares and placement shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, and (iii) each holder of founder shares has
agreed, and each purchaser of placement units has agreed, to waive his, her or its redemption rights with respect to his, her or its
founder shares and placement shares, (A) in connection with the consummation of a business combination, (B) 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 redeem 100%
of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023, (C) if we fail to consummate our initial
business combination by March 16, 2023 and (D) upon our liquidation prior to March 16, 2023. To the extent holders of founder shares
or purchasers of placement units transfer any of these securities, such transferees will agree, as a condition to such transfer, to waive
these same redemption rights. If we submit our initial business combination to our public stockholders for a vote, our sponsor and the
other initial holders have agreed, and our officers and directors have agreed, to vote their respective founder shares, placement shares
and any public shares held by them in favor of our initial business combination.

 

    3

     

    

 

The
shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of our initial business combination
on a one-for-one basis (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), and
subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities
are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in the initial public offering and related to the closing of the 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 25% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock issued and outstanding upon
completion of the initial public offering, including placement shares, plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities
issued or deemed issued in connection with our initial business combination, excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued,
or to be issued, to any seller in our initial business combination and any private placement-equivalent securities issued to our sponsor
or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to us. We cannot determine at this time whether a majority of the holders of our Class B
common stock at the time of any future issuance would agree to waive such adjustment to the conversion ratio. They may waive such adjustment
due to (but not limited to) the following: (i) closing conditions which are part of the agreement for our initial business combination;
(ii) negotiation with Class A stockholders on structuring an initial business combination; or (iii) negotiation with parties
providing financing which would trigger the anti-dilution provisions of the Class B common stock. If such adjustment is not waived,
the future issuance would not reduce the percentage ownership of holders of our Class B common stock, but would reduce the percentage
ownership of holders of our Class A common stock. If such adjustment is waived, the future issuance would reduce the percentage
ownership of holders of both classes of our common stock. The term “equity-linked securities” refers to any debt or equity
securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock issued in a financing transaction
in connection with our initial business combination, including but not limited to a private placement of equity or debt. Securities could
be “deemed issued” for purposes of the conversion rate adjustment if such shares are issuable upon the conversion or exercise
of convertible securities, warrants or similar securities.

 

With
certain limited exceptions, the founder shares are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to our officers and directors and
other persons or entities affiliated with our initial holders, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until
the date (i) with respect to 25% of such shares, upon consummation of our initial business combination, (ii) with respect to 25%
of such shares, when the closing price of our Class A common stock exceeds $12.00 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day
period following the consummation of our initial business combination, (iii) with respect to 25% of such shares, when the closing price
of our Class A common stock exceeds $13.50 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of
our initial business combination, and (iv) with respect to 25% of such shares, when the closing price of our Class A common stock exceeds
$17.00 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of our initial business combination or
earlier, in any case, if, following a business combination, we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization
or other similar transaction that results in all of our public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock
for cash, securities or other property.

 

Preferred
Stock

 

Our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more
series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating,
optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions, applicable to the shares of each series. Our board
of directors is able, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect
the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of
directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of
control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no preferred stock outstanding at the date hereof. Although we do not currently
intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future. However, if issued prior to
our initial business combination, none of the shares of our preferred stock will have any right to amounts held in the trust account.

 

    4

     

    

 

Warrants

 

Public
Warrants

 

Each
whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one whole share of our Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the initial public offering
or 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrantholder may exercise
its warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. This means that only a whole warrant may be exercised at any
given time by a warrantholder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade.
Accordingly, unless you purchase at least four units, you will not be able to receive or trade a whole warrant. The warrants will expire
five years after the completion of our initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or
liquidation.

 

We
will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise for cash of a warrant and will have
no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of
Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying
our obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares
of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been
registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from the registration or qualifications requirements of the securities laws of the state
of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares
of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the public warrants has not been declared effective by the end of 60 business
days following the closing 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, exercise warrants on a cashless
basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

 

We
have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of our initial business combination,
we will use our best efforts to file with the SEC, and within 60 business days following our initial business combination to have declared
effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants
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 warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of our initial business combination, warrant holders
may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we 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. 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 public 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, and in the event we do not so elect, we will use our best efforts to register or
qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

 

Once
the warrants become exercisable, we may call the warrants for redemption:

 

		●	in
whole and not in part;

 

		●	at
a price of $0.01 per warrant;

 

		●	upon
not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder;
and

 

		●	if,
and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock (or the closing bid price of our common stock in the event shares
of our common stock are not traded on any specific day) 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 business days before
we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

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
underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

We
have established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the
call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption
of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price
of the Class A common stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 (for whole shares) warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

 

    5

     

    

 

If
we call the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise
its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a
“cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding
and the dilutive effect on our stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise
of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering
their warrants 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, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and
the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the
average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date
on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of
redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Class A common stock to be received upon exercise
of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce
the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive
option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after our initial business combination. If we call our warrants
for redemption and our management does not take advantage of this option, our sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled
to exercise their placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrant holders
would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in
more detail below.

 

A
holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the
right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s
affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as
a holder may specify) of the shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

 

If
the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Class A common stock,
or by a split-up of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up
or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to
such increase in the outstanding shares of Class A common stock. A rights offering to holders of Class A common stock entitling holders
to purchase shares of Class A common stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of
shares of Class A common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A common stock actually sold in such rights
offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class
A common stock) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Class A common stock paid in such rights
offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable
for Class A common stock, in determining the price payable for Class A common stock, there will be taken into account any consideration
received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume
weighted average price of Class A common stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to
the first date on which the shares of Class A common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way,
without the right to receive such rights.

 

In
addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities
or other assets to the holders of Class A common stock on account of such shares of Class A common stock (or other shares of our capital
stock into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy
the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy
the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock 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 redeem 100% of our Class A common stock if we
do not complete our initial business combination by March 16, 2023 or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’
rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to
complete our initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective
date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Class
A common stock in respect of such event.

 

    6

     

    

 

If
the number of outstanding shares of our Class A common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification
of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock
split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased
in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

 

Whenever
the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant
exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the
numerator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior
to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock so purchasable immediately
thereafter.

 

In
case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock (other than those described above or
that solely affects the par value of such shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or
into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in
any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with
which we are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the
terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the shares of our Class A common stock immediately theretofore purchasable
and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any
such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior
to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Class A common stock in such a transaction is payable
in the form of Class A common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted
in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered
holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant
exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement)
of the warrant.

 

The
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 or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public
warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants.

 

In
addition, if (x) 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 an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share
(with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by us and in the case of any such issuance to our sponsors
or their affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by our initial stockholders or such affiliates, as applicable,
prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than
50% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination on the date of
the completion of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume-weighted average trading price of our
shares of Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which we complete our
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, and the $18.00
per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the
Newly Issued Price.

 

The
warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant
agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full
payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number
of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A common stock and any voting
rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of Class A common stock. After the issuance of shares of Class A common
stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all matters to be
voted on by stockholders.

 

Warrants
may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the
warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise,
round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Class A common stock to be issued to the warrant holder. As a result, warrant holders
not purchasing an even number of warrants must sell any odd number of warrants in order to obtain full value from the fractional interest
that will not be issued.

Placement
Warrants 

 

The
placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the placement warrants) are not transferable, assignable
or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (subject to limited exceptions) and they are not redeemable
by us so long as they are held by our sponsor, Millennium or their permitted transferees. Our sponsor, Millennium or their permitted
transferees, have the option to exercise the placement warrants on a cashless basis. Except as described below, the placement warrants
have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the initial public offering, including
as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. If the placement warrants are held by holders other than our sponsor, Millennium
or their permitted transferees, the placement warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the
warrants included in the units sold in the initial public offering.

 

If
holders of the placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering their
warrants 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, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the
“fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average
last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which
the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent.

 

In
addition, holders of our placement warrants are entitled to certain registration rights.

 

Amendments
to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

 

Our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains requirements and restrictions relating to the initial public offering that
will apply to us until the consummation of our initial business combination. These provisions, which cannot be amended without the approval
of holders owning 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, are as follows:

 

		●	if
we are unable to consummate our initial business combination by March 16, 2023, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose
of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, 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 any amounts representing
interest earned on the trust account, less any interest released to us for the payment of taxes or 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 (iii) 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;

 

		●	prior
to our initial business combination, we may not issue additional shares of capital stock that would entitle the holders thereof to (i)
receive funds from the trust account or (ii) vote on any initial business combination;

 

		●	although
we do not currently intend to enter into a business combination with a target business that is affiliated with holders of founder shares,
our directors or officers, we are not prohibited from doing so. If we propose to do so, we, or a committee of independent directors,
must obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or an independent accounting firm, that
such a business combination is fair to our stockholders from a financial point of view;

 

		●	if
a stockholder vote on our initial business combination is not required by law or NASDAQ and we do not decide to hold a stockholder vote
for business or other legal reasons, we must offer to redeem our public shares pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange
Act, and will file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to consummating our initial business combination which contain substantially
the same financial and other information about our initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation
14A of the Exchange Act;

 

		●	if
our stockholders approve an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation that would effect the substance or timing
of our obligation to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our business combination by March 16, 2023, we will provide
our public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock upon such approval 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 taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares; and

 

		●	we
may not effectuate our initial business combination with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.

 

    8

     

    

 

If,
however, the effect of any proposed amendment, if adopted, would be either to (i) reduce the amount in the trust account available
to redeeming stockholders to less than $10.00 per share, or (ii) delay the date on which a public stockholder could otherwise redeem
shares for such per share amount in the trust account and, if such amendment is approved by persons holding at least 65% of our outstanding
shares of common stock we will provide a right for dissenting public stockholders to redeem their public shares in the same manner as
if we were seeking a stockholder vote on a business combination, except that the amount on deposit in the trust account for purposes
of calculating the per share redemption price will be determined at the close of business two business days before the meeting date.
Our initial holders, officers and directors have agreed to vote any founder shares, placement shares and public shares they hold in favor
of any such amendments that we may propose and, accordingly, will have no redemption rights in connection therewith.

 

In
addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that under no circumstances will we redeem our public shares
in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 upon consummation of our initial business combination.
This notwithstanding, if the effect of any proposed amendment, if adopted, would be either to (i) reduce the amount in the trust
account available to redeeming stockholders to less than $10.00 per public share, or (ii) delay the date on which a public stockholder
could otherwise redeem shares for such per share amount in the trust account, we will provide a right for dissenting public stockholders
to redeem public shares if such an amendment is approved.

 

Certain
Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law 

 

We
are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations,
under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

 

		●	a
stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

 

		●	an
affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

 

		●	an
associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

 

 A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

 

		●	our
board of directors approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the
transaction;

 

		●	after
the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least
85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

 

		●	on
or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at a meeting
of our stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned
by the interested stockholder.

 

Exclusive
Forum Selection

 

Our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in
our name, actions against directors, officers and employees for breach of fiduciary duty and other similar actions may be brought only
in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, except any action (A) as to which the Court of Chancery in 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, or (C) for which the Court of Chancery
does not have subject matter jurisdiction. If an action is brought outside of Delaware, the stockholder bringing the suit will be deemed
to have consented to service of process on such stockholder’s counsel. 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.

 

Our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the exclusive forum provision will be applicable to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, subject to certain exceptions. 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. As a result,
the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other
claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides
that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action
arising under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. We note, however, that there is uncertainty as
to whether a court would enforce this provision and that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules
and regulations thereunder.
