These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this Report may include, for example, statements about:
| ● | our pool of prospective target businesses; |
| ● | the impact of any epidemics, pandemics disease outbreaks or quarantines, including the resurgence of new variants of COVID-19 on our ability to consummate an initial business combination; |
| ● | global economic conditions and geopolitical events including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or the Israel-Hamas War; |
| ● | our public securities’ potential liquidity and trading; |
SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS
You should consider carefully all of the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this Report, including the financial statements. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. 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.
| ● | Our public shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed initial business combination, which means we may complete our initial business combination even if a majority of our public shareholders do not support such a combination. |
| ● | The requirement that we consummate an initial business combination by the date by which we are required to consummate a business combination pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Termination Date”) 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 shareholders. |
| ● | Our search for a business combination, and any target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected by epidemics, pandemics, disease outbreaks or quarantines, including the resurgence of new variants of COVID-19 on our ability to consummate an initial business combination and the status of debt and equity markets. |
| ● | We may not be able to consummate an initial business combination by the Termination Date, in which case we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our public shares and liquidate. |
| ● | If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, our sponsor, directors, executive officers, advisors and their affiliates may elect to purchase public shares or warrants, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A ordinary shares or public warrants. |
| ● | As the number of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) 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. |
| ● | Our warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities, 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. |
| ● | 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 have not consummated our initial business combination within the required time period, our public shareholders may receive only approximately $11.10 per public share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our trust account and our warrants will expire worthless. |
| ● | If the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants not being held in the trust account are insufficient to allow us to operate for the Termination Date, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business or businesses and our ability to complete our initial business combination, and we will depend on loans from our sponsor, its affiliates or members of our management team to fund our search for a business combination, to pay our taxes, and to complete our initial business combination. |
| ● | Our management concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” |
| ● | The SEC has recently issued final rules relating to certain activities of SPACs. Certain of the procedures that we may determine to undertake in connection with such rules may increase our costs and the time needed to complete a Business Combination (as defined below). |
| ● | The other risks and uncertainties discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report. |
