                    State of Delaware and deregister as an exempted company
                    incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the
                    "Domestication"), and each Class A ordinary share of SPAC
                    outstanding will be converted into the right to receive one
                    share of Class A common stock of SPAC (the "SPAC Class A

                    in each of its Affiliated Managers, and (b) TIG GP will
                    distribute to Umbrella all of the issued and outstanding
                    shares or interests that it holds in its Affiliated Manager;




             (v)    at the Closing, each Alvarium Shareholder will exchange his,
                    her or its (a) Ordinary Shares of Alvarium Topco and (b) Class
                    A Shares of Alvarium Topco for shares of SPAC Class A Common

                    the Alvarium Exchange, Alvarium Topco will become a direct
                    wholly-owned subsidiary of SPAC;




             (vi)   at the Closing, immediately following the effective time of
                    the Alvarium Exchange, Umbrella Merger Sub will merge with and
                    into Umbrella, with Umbrella surviving such merger as a direct
                    subsidiary of SPAC (the "Umbrella Merger");




             (vii)  pursuant to the Umbrella Merger, SPAC will receive Class A
                    Units of Umbrella and will become the sole manager of Umbrella

                    of Umbrella and an equal number of shares of SPAC Class B

                    rights); and




             (viii) at the Closing, following the Alvarium Exchange and the
                    Umbrella Merger, SPAC and Umbrella will enter into the

No Offer or Solicitation


This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute a "solicitation" as defined in Section 14 of the Exchange Act. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer, or a solicitation of an offer, to buy or sell any securities, investment or other specific product, or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities, investment or other specific product in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

                                       24





Forward-Looking Statements


Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements herein generally relate to future events or the future financial or operating performance of SPAC, the Companies or the combined company expected to result from the Business Combination (the "Combined Company"). For example, statements regarding the outcomes of the proposed Business Combination, the expected transaction and ownership structure and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the proposed Business Combination, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "expect," "intend," "will," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "predict," "project," "target," "plan," or "potentially" or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, that, while considered reasonable by SPAC, the Companies and their respective management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and subject to material change. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risk and uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management's control, including (i) the inability to complete the business combination in a timely manner or at all (including due to the failure to receive required shareholder approvals, failure to receive approvals or the failure of other closing conditions); (ii) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination; (iii) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of SPAC's shares on Nasdaq following the business combination; (iv) costs related to the business combination; (v) the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; (vi) SPAC and the Companies' ability to manage growth and execute business plans and meet projections; (vii) potential litigation involving SPAC or any of the Companies; (viii) changes in applicable laws or regulations, particularly with respect to wealth management and asset management; (ix) general economic and market conditions impacting demand for SPAC's or the Companies' services, and in particular economic and market conditions in the financial services industry in the markets in which SPAC or any of the Companies operate; and (x) other risks, uncertainties and factors set forth in the section entitled "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in SPAC's final prospectus relating to its initial public offering, dated February 23, 2021, and other filings with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither SPAC nor the Companies presently know or that SPAC or any of the Companies currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, which speak only as of the date they are made and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein and the risk factors of SPAC and the Companies described above. None of SPAC or any Company undertakes any duty to update these forward-looking statements.
