Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on
The issuance of additional shares of our stock in a business combination:
? may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors, which dilution would
increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class B common stock resulted
in the issuance of Class A shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon
conversion of the Class B common stock;
? may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred stock is
issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;
? could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our common
stock is 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 stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain
control of us; and
? may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A common stock
and/or warrants.
Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant indebtedness, it could result in:
? default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after our
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 security is payable on demand;
? our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt security
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, our ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and
acquisitions, and fund 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;
? limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital
expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of our
strategy; and
? other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have
less debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete an initial business combination will be successful.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account (excluding deferred underwriting fees) to complete our business combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our 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.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in
connection with a 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. If we complete a business combination, we
would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a 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 our trust account
would be used for such repayment. Up to
We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the

Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated obligations through the earlier of the Company's consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation from the date of issuance of the financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in
Common stock subject to possible redemption
We account for 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 is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features 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. Our common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders' equity section of our balance sheets.
Net loss per common share
We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Shares of common stock subject to possible redemption which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the trust account earnings. Our net income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to common stock subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the trust account and not our income or losses.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's condensed financial statements.
