Previous report

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules (“2022 Proposed Rules”) relating to, among other items, enhancing disclosures in business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies; amending the financial statement requirements applicable to transactions involving shell companies; effectively limiting the use of projections in SEC filings in connection with proposed business combination transactions; increasing the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may materially adversely affect our ability to engage financial and capital market advisors, identify a potential business opportunity and/or negotiate and complete a transaction and may increase the costs and time related thereto.
Reworded paragraphs (8)

Previous wording

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), blank check companies and other entities, domestic and international, competing for the types of business opportunities we intend to pursue. Many of these individuals and entities are well-established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly, such business opportunities and/or operating in or providing services to various industries. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources or more industry knowledge than we do and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous business opportunities we could potentially pursue, our ability to compete for such business opportunities will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain business opportunities.

Holders of Class A common stock will not be entitled to vote on any election of directors we hold.

Current wording

Holders of Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock) will not be entitled to vote on any election of directors we hold.

Previous wording

Although we initially intend to focus our search for a business opportunity in the consumer industry, we are not limited to evaluating a business opportunity in any particular industry sector. As a result, there is no current basis to evaluate the possible merits or risks of any particular business opportunity. To the extent we complete a transaction, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business opportunity. For example, if we pursue a business opportunity 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 business opportunity, 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 business opportunity. We also cannot assure you that an investment in our securities will ultimately prove to be more favorable to you than a direct investment, if such opportunity were available, in a business opportunity.

Previous wording

Our success largely depends on the ability of our management team to effectively organize and consummate a business opportunity. Our management team is critical to the execution of our strategic direction and implementation of a business opportunity. It is difficult to predict with any certainty that we will be able to replace these individuals with persons of equivalent experience and capabilities should one or more members no longer be able to serve in their current capacity. If we are unable to find adequate replacements or to attract, retain and incentivize senior executives, other key advisors or new qualified personnel, such inability could have a material adverse effect on our ability to effect a business combination and final results of operations.

Previous wording

While we expect to undertake any business opportunity so as to minimize taxes, a particular transaction could result in the imposition of substantial taxes. Additionally, depending on the date and size of our initial business combination, it is possible that at least 60% of our adjusted ordinary gross income may consist of personal holding company income. In addition, depending on the concentration of our stock in the hands of individuals, including the members of our sponsor and certain tax-exempt organizations, pension funds, and charitable trusts, it is possible that more than 50% of our stock will be owned or deemed owned (pursuant to the constructive ownership rules) by such persons during the last half of a taxable year. Thus, no assurance can be given that we will not become a personal holding company following this offering or in the future. If we are or were to become a personal holding company in a given taxable year, we would be subject to an additional personal holding company tax, currently 20%, on our undistributed taxable income, subject to certain adjustments.

Previous wording

There may be uncertain U.S. federal income tax consequences pertaining to certain transactions. For instance, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of a cashless exercise of warrants is unclear under current law. It is also unclear what impact the conversion rights with respect to our shares of Class A common stock would have on a U.S. holder’s holding period for purposes of determining whether any gain or loss realized by such holder on the sale or exchange of Class A common stock is long-term capital gain or loss and with respect to any dividends we may pay. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to these and other tax consequences when purchasing, holding or disposing of our securities.

Previous wording

Any of the foregoing could have an adverse impact on our operations. However, our efforts in identifying prospective businesses opportunities will not be limited to consumer and consumer-related products and services industries. Accordingly, if we effect a business opportunity in another industry, these risks will likely not affect us and we will be subject to other risks attendant with the specific industry in which we operate, none of which can be presently ascertained.

Previous wording

However, we are aware of litigation against certain entities asserting that, notwithstanding the foregoing, those entities should be considered investment companies and the SEC has suggested in the 2022 Proposed Rules release that the extended period of investment of assets by similar such entities raise questions about their status as investment companies under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act.
