NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Newbury Street Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 6, 2020. The Company is a blank check formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

While the Company may pursue a Business Combination target in any business or industry, the Company intends to focus its search on a technology business in the consumer internet or media space, including sports and entertainment verticals. In particular, the Company shall focus on disruptive, high growth companies with a global ambition that take advantage of: (a) the rise of new consumer behaviors driven by the internet or new technologies, or (b) paradigm shifts in media, sports and entertainment that give rise to disruptive new entrants here to stay for the coming decades. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had no operating activity. During the period from January 15, 2021 (commencement of operations) to March 31, 2023, the Company’s activity up to the Public Offering related to the Company’s formation and Public Offering, which is described below, and subsequent to the Public Offering, and search for and consummation of a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income or dividend income derived from the funds deposited in Trust Account. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete a Business Combination with one or more operating businesses or assets that together have an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account, excluding taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account at the time of the Company’s signing a definitive agreement in connection with its initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires an interest in the target business or assets sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption are recorded at redemption value and are classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Public Offering in accordance with the ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange rules and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Second 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 completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange rules, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Public Offering (a) in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to redeem any shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or do not vote at all.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 20% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company initially had up to 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering to March 25, 2023 to complete a Business Combination, which was extended to September 25, 2023 at the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders on March 21, 2023. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company 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 income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $0.10 million of interest 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 the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares in or after the Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses and other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Merger Agreement

On December 12, 2022, the Company, entered into the Merger Agreement by and among (i) the Company, (ii) Pubco, (iii) Purchaser Merger Sub, (iv) Company Merger Sub, and (v) Infinite Reality.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) Purchaser Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity, (ii) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into Infinite Reality, with the Infinite Reality continuing as the surviving entity, and (iii) following the Mergers, the Company and Infinite Reality will become direct wholly-owned subsidiaries of Pubco, and Pubco will become a publicly traded company.

Stockholder Extension Meeting

On March 3, 2023, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement for a special meeting on March 21, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”) to seek approval from its stockholders to amend the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to further extend the date by which the Company is required to complete its initial Business Combination from March 25, 2023 to September 25, 2023 (the “Extension Proposal”) and to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or convenient, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Extension Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”). The Extension Proposal and Adjournment Proposal were approved on March 21, 2023.

In connection with approval of the Extension Proposal, the holders of 7,744,085 shares of common stock of the Company properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.17 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $78.8 million. As a result, on April 3, 2023, approximately $78.8 million was removed from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such holders, following which, 5,099,852 shares of common stock subject to redemption, remain outstanding.

Additionally, in connection with the approval of the Extension Proposal, the Sponsor or its designees have agreed to contribute to the Company as a note (i) the lesser of (a) an aggregate of $600,000 or (b) $0.04 for each public share on a monthly basis that is not redeemed in connection with the Extension Amendment for the portion of the Extension ending on June 23, 2023 (the “Initial Contribution”); plus, (ii) an aggregate of $200,000 per month (commencing on June 23, 2023 and on the 23rd day of each subsequent month) until the charter extension date (each, an “Extension Period”), or portion thereof, that is needed to complete an initial Business

Combination (such loans, together with the Initial Contribution, the “Contribution”), which amount will be deposited into the Trust Account. Accordingly, the amount deposited per share depends on the number of public shares that remain outstanding after the redemption and the length of the extension period that will be needed to complete an initial Business Combination. On March 24, 2023, the Company deposited the Initial Contribution and will deposit an aggregate of $200,000 per month during each Extension Period, or portion thereof, that is needed to complete an initial Business Combination, which amount will be deposited into the Trust Account.

On March 23, 2023, the Company filed an amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from March 25, 2023 to September 25, 2023.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $0.43 million in its operating bank account, approximately $131.47 million of cash held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its common stock in connection therewith and a working capital deficiency of approximately $83.1 million. In connection with the redemption of 7,744,085 shares of common stock previously held by public stockholders, $78.8 million was removed from the Trust Account on April 3, 2023, leaving $52.9 million in the Trust Account.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

The Company will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through September 25, 2023, the date that the Company will be required to cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up, if a Business Combination is not consummated. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the GAAP for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future periods.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any cash equivalents, outside of funds held in the Trust Account.

Cash Held in Trust Account

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $131.47 million and $129.95 million, respectively, of assets held in Trust Account held in Treasury Bills.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

All of the 12,843,937 shares of common stock sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC Topic 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC Topic 480.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable shares of common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares of common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the shares of common stock subject to possible redemption and included as temporary equity were as follows:

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs are charged against the carrying value of common stock or stockholders’ deficit based on the relative value of the shares of common stock and the warrants, to the proceeds received from the Units sold upon the completion of the Public Offering. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Public Offering that were directly related to the Public Offering. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $3.00 million as a result of the Public Offering, consisting of $2.57 million of cash underwriting discount and $0.43 million of other offering costs. As such, the Company recorded $2.90 million of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity, $0.10 million of offering costs as a reduction of permanent equity and $454 of offering cost as reduction in the statement of operations.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times, may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $0.25 million. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, franchise tax payable approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s marketable securities held in Trust Account are comprised of investments in U.S. Treasury securities with an original maturity of 185 days. The fair value of marketable securities held in Trust Account is determined using quoted prices in active markets.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and ASC Subtopic 815-15. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

The 203,440 Private Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC Subtopic 815-40. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants was initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently, the fair value of the Private Warrants have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model each measurement date.

Net Profit (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. The contractual formula utilized to calculate the redemption amount approximates fair value. The Class feature to redeem at fair value means that there is effectively only one class of stock. Changes in fair value are not considered a dividend of the purposes of the numerator in the earnings per share calculation. Net profit (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing the pro rata net profit (loss) between the shares of common stock subject to redemption and the shares of common stock not subject to redemption by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted profit (loss) per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. The warrants are exercisable for 6,625,409 shares of common stock in the aggregate.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.36 million based on activities through March 31, 2023, primarily as a result of investment income, partially offset by deductible expenses. The effective tax rate of 47.93% as of March 31, 2023 differed from the statutory tax rate of 21% mainly due to permanent non-deductible GAAP expenses, state income taxes and change in the valuation allowance.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the accompanying statement of operations. As of March 31, 2023, the Company does not have uncertain tax positions or interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was enacted into law. Among other changes to the tax code, the act imposes a 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of corporate stock by certain publicly traded corporations. The 1% stock buyback tax applies to redemptions by domestic corporations occurring in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. The stock buyback tax may be applicable to certain SPAC redemptions, including in connection with a SPAC’s business combination. For purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, a number of exceptions to the stock buyback tax are available including exceptions to certain reorganizations; however, while these exceptions may be helpful in limiting the application of the stock buyback tax in situations in which it was not intended to apply, more guidance will be necessary for taxpayers to analyze the potential application of these exceptions and whether they will be able to rely upon them.

Income Taxes (Continued)

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension a vote by stockholders to extend the period of time to complete the Business Combination (the “extension vote”) or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination. As of March 31, 2023, $0.79 million was incurred by the Company as excise tax expense in connection with the redemption of 7,744,085 shares of common stock previously held by public stockholders.

The IRS issued Notice 2023-3 (Initial guidance regarding the application of the excise tax on repurchases of corporate stock). The notice defines stock redemptions per Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 317(b) and also defines transactions considered to be economically similar to a repurchase including certain acquisitive reorganizations, split-offs and certain overlap complete liquidations. Further, the notice defines transaction that are not economically similar transactions, including complete liquidations and certain divisive transactions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments.

The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 ─ PUBLIC OFFERING

On March 25, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of 12,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value and one-half of one redeemable Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant offered in the Offering is exercisable to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

On March 30, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part and purchased an additional 843,937 Units, generating gross proceeds of $8.44 million.

In connection with the Public Offering, the Company granted the underwriters an option to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the Public Offering price, or $10.00 per share, for 45 days commencing on October 25, 2021 (grant date). Since this option extended beyond the closing of the Public Offering, this option feature represented a call option that was accounted for under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Accordingly, the call option has been separately accounted for at a fair value with the change in fair value between the grant date and March 30, 2021 and expiration amount recorded as other income. The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the call option at the grant date and again at March 30, 2021 (refer to Note 10 for fair value information).

NOTE 4 ─ PRIVATE UNITS

Concurrently with the closing of the Public Offering, the Sponsor and the underwriters purchased an aggregate of 390,000 Private Units generating gross proceeds of $3.90 million in aggregate in a private placement. Each private unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value and one-half of one redeemable Private Warrant. Each whole Private Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8).

As a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option on March 30, 2021, the Sponsor and the underwriters and its designees purchased an additional 16,879 Private Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit.

If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

NOTE 5 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). Each loan would be evidenced by promissory note.

The notes may be repaid upon completion of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.50 million of notes may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such units would be identical to the Private Units. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of March 31, 2023, no Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Related Party Loans (Continued)

In addition, on May 3, 2022, the Company issued a promissory note for up to approximately $0.4 million (the “Note”) to the Sponsor, of which $0.4 million was outstanding under the Note as of December 31, 2022. The Note is non-interest bearing and the Company must make drawdown requests in amounts no less than $10,000 unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties. The principal balance of the Note is payable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective (such date, the “Maturity Date”). The Company, pursuant to the Note, may at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of the Note elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Note into units at a conversion price of $10.00 per unit.

The Company, pursuant to the Note, may at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of the Note elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Note into units (the “Conversion Units”) at a conversion price of $10.00 per unit.

However, on March 15, 2023, the Company amended and restated the Note (the “Amended Note”) in its entirety to (1) increase the principal amount thereunder from $0.4 million to $0.9 million and (2) remove the right of the holder of the Amended Note to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the note into the Company’s units and related registration rights for such units (including underlying securities). The Amended Note is non-interest bearing and is payable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination or (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective.

On March 22, 2023, the Company amended and restated the Note (the “Second Amended Note”) to increase the principal amount of up to $0.9 million to up to $2.1 million to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to such amount.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $0.47 million and $0.40 million were outstanding, respectively.

Extension Loan

The Sponsor or its designees have agreed to contribute to the Company as a note, to fund the Contribution. The Initial Contribution was deposited into the Trust Account on March 24, 2023. Additionally, an aggregate of $200,000 per month will be funded throughout the Extension Period, or portion thereof, that is needed to complete an initial Business Combination which amount will be deposited into the Trust Account.

Related Party Payable

As of March 31, 2023, an amount of $480 was payable to the Sponsor, in connection with the filing of a tax return.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of up to $0.01 million per month from the effective date of the Registration Statement for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Services will terminate upon the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company paid $0.03 million for these services, of which such amount is included in the operating costs on the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred $0.03 million for these services, of which such amount is included in the formation and operating costs on the accompanying statements of operations.

NOTE 6 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on March 22, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares and Representative Shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any warrants issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to Company (and underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities.

The holders of a majority of the Representative Shares, Private Units and warrants issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, EBC may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to consummation of a Business Combination; provided, however, that EBC may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Public Offering to purchase up to 1,800,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, or $2.40 million in the aggregate, paid at the closing of the Public Offering.

On March 30, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 843,937 Units at $10.00 per Unit.

In connection with the underwriters’ partial exercise of the over-allotment option on March 30, 2021, the underwriters were paid an additional cash underwriting fee of $0.17 million.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company has engaged EBC as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings with its stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities in connection with a Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination.

The Company will pay EBC a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of Public Offering (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable); provided that up to 30% of the fee may be allocated at the Company’s sole discretion to other FINRA members that assist the Company in identifying and consummating a Business Combination.

Additionally, the Company will pay EBC a cash fee equal to 1.0% of the total consideration payable in a Business Combination if EBC introduces the Company to the target business with which the Company completes a Business Combination; provided that the foregoing fee will not be paid prior to the date that is 90 days from the effective date of the Public Offering, unless FINRA determines that such payment would not be deemed underwriters’ compensation in connection with the Public Offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(c)(3)(B)(ii).

NOTE 7 ─ STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. On January 15, 2021, the Company issued 4,562,500 shares of common stock to the Sponsor and the underwriters and its designees. On March 22, 2021, the Sponsor and the underwriters effected a surrender of 862,500 and 50,000 shares of common stock to the Company, for no consideration. This resulted in a decrease in the total number of shares of common stock outstanding from 4,562,500 to 3,650,000. All shares and associated amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share surrender.

On March 30, 2021, as a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise the over-allotment option, an aggregate of 239,016 Founder Shares has been forfeited. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 3,817,863 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, excluding 5,099,852 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2023, and 12,843,937 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2022, respectively, that are subject to possible redemption at the option of the holders which accordingly are classified as temporary equity in the accompanying balance sheets.

Public Warrants

The Public Warrants will become exercisable at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company 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, provided that such exemption is available.

If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may redeem the Public Warrants (excluding the Private Warrants and any warrants underlying units issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans):

in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
at any time after the warrants become exercisable;
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder;
if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the shares of common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing at any time after the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and
if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants.

NOTE 7 ─ STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (Continued)

Public Warrants (Continued)

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of its common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its 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 greater of (i) Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issue the additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities.

Representative Shares

If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

In January 2021, the Company issued to EBC and its designees, 250,000 Representative Shares.

On March 22, 2021, 50,000 Representative Shares were returned by EBC and its designees to the Company, for no consideration. This resulted in a decrease in the total number of Representative Shares outstanding from 250,000 to 200,000.

The Company accounted for the Representative Shares as an offering cost of the Public Offering, with a corresponding credit to stockholders’ equity. The Company estimated the fair value of Representative Shares to be $1,449 based upon the price of the Founder Shares issued to the Sponsor.

The holders of the Representative Shares have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares until the completion of a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

NOTE 7 ─ STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (Continued)

Representative Shares (Continued)

The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement related to the Public Offering pursuant to Rule 5110(g)(1) of FINRA’s NASD Conduct Rules. Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1), these securities were not sold during the Public Offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Public Offering, except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Public Offering and their bona fide officers or partners, provided that all securities so transferred remain subject to the lockup restriction above for the remainder of the time period.

NOTE 8 DERIVATIVE WARRANTS LIABILITIES

The Private Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

NOTE 9 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The fair value of the Private Warrants was initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently, the fair value of the Private Warrants have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model each measurement date.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a gain to the statements of operations resulting from a decrease in the fair value of liabilities of $5,106 and $67,135, respectively, presented as change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities in the accompanying statements of operations.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 were recognized at the end of the reporting period.

The estimated fair value of the Private Warrants prior to being separately listed and traded, is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Monte Carlo simulation are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

Overview

We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 6, 2020 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate the Company’s Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, the Company’s capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

All activity through March 31, 2023 related to the Company’s formation, Public Offering, and search for and consummation of a prospective initial Business Combination target.

Factors That May Adversely Affect the Company’s Results of Operations

The Company’s results of operations and the Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company’s business could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, increases in interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflict in the Ukraine. We cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact the Company’s business and the Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination.

Infinite Reality Business Combination

On December 12, 2022, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement by and among the Company, Pubco, Purchaser Merger Sub, Infinite Reality Merger Sub and Infinite Reality. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) Purchaser Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity and (ii) Infinite Reality Merger Sub will merge with and into Infinite Reality, with Infinite Reality continuing as the surviving entity. Following the Mergers, the Company and Infinite Reality will become direct wholly-owned subsidiaries of Pubco, and Pubco will become a publicly traded company.

Table of Contents

the addition of a new Section 6.23 providing for the payment by the Company of all transaction expenses up to $10 million in connection with the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

For a full description of the Merger Agreement and the proposed Infinite Reality Business Combination, please see “Item 1. Financial Statements.” For additional information of the Amended Merger Agreement, please see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on May 16, 2023.

Results of Operations

The Company has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. The Company’s only activities from commencement of operations through March 31, 2023 were related to the Company’s formation and the Public Offering, and subsequent to the Public Offering, identifying a target company for Business Combination, and subsequent to entering into the Merger Agreement, pursuing the completion of the Infinite Reality Business Combination. The Company does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its Business Combination. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income or dividend income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. The Company incurs expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as expenses for due diligence related to the search for potential target companies.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had a net profit of approximately $0.39 million, which consisted of dividend income of approximately $1.38 million and change in fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $5,106, offset by excise tax expense of approximately $0.79 million, franchise tax expense of approximately $0.05 million, income tax expense of approximately $0.36 million and operating costs of approximately $0.58 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss of approximately $0.24 million, which consisted of dividend income of $12,934, other income of $5,000, change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $67,135 and offset by franchise tax expense of approximately $0.05 million and operating costs of approximately $0.28 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $0.43 million in cash and no cash equivalents.

Until the consummation of the Public Offering, the Company’s only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of common stock by the Sponsor and loans from its Sponsor.

On March 25, 2021, the Company’s consummated the Public Offering of 12,000,000 units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $120.00 million. Simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 390,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to Sponsor and EBC, generating gross proceeds of $3.90 million. On March 30, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part and purchased an additional 843,937 units, generating gross proceeds of approximately $8.44 million. In connection with the underwriters’ partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Company sold an additional 16,879 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per private unit in a private placement to Sponsor and EBC, generating gross proceeds of approximately $0.17 million.

Following the Public Offering and the private placement, a total of approximately $128.44 million was placed in the Trust Account. The Company incurred approximately $3.00 million in transaction costs, including approximately $2.57 million of underwriting fees and approximately $0.43 million of other offering costs.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had assets held in the Trust Account of approximately $131.47 million. In connection with the redemption of 7,744,085 shares of common stock previously held by public stockholders, approximately $78.8 million was removed from the Trust Account on April 3, 2023, leaving approximately $52.9 million in the Trust Account. The Company intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing income earned on the Trust Account, to complete its Business Combination. To the extent that the Company’s capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete its 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 the Company’s growth strategies.

25

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash of approximately $0.43 million outside of the Trust Account. The Company intends to use the funds held outside the Trust Account and any proceeds from borrowings primarily to perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Company’s Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Company’s Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1.50 million of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the Private Units.

In addition, on May 3, 2022, the Company issued a promissory note for up to approximately $0.4 million (the “Note”) to the Sponsor. The first drawdown was on May 24, 2022 of approximately $0.23 million. On August 30, 2022, September 6, 2022 and September 21, 2022, there were additional drawdowns of approximately $0.04 million, $0.11 million and $0.02 million respectively. As of March 31, 2023, $0.9 million was outstanding under the Note. The Note is non-interest bearing and the Company must make drawdown requests in amounts no less than $10,000 unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties. The principal balance of the Note is payable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective (such date, the “Maturity Date”).

The Company, pursuant to the Note, may at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of the Note elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Note into units at a conversion price of $10.00 per unit.

However, on March 15, 2023, the Company amended and restated the Note (the “Amended Note”) in its entirety to (1) increase the principal amount thereunder from $0.4 million to $0.9 million and (2) remove the right of the holder of the Amended Note to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the note into the Company’s units and related registration rights for such units (including underlying securities). The Amended Note is non-interest bearing and is payable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination or (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective.

On March 22, 2023, the Company amended and restated the Amended Note (the “Second Amended Note”) to increase the principal amount of up to $0.9 million to up to $2.1 million, pursuant to which the sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $2.1 million.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern”, the Company has until September 25, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date and an extension not obtained, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Although the Company intends to consummate a Business Combination on or before September 25, 2023, it is uncertain whether the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur and an extension is not obtained, and potential subsequent dissolution, as well as the potential for the Company to have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to a Business Combination, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after September 25, 2023.

Extension Loan

The Sponsor or its designees have agreed to contribute to the Company as a note, to fund the Contribution. The Initial Contribution was deposited into the Trust Account on March 24, 2023. Additionally, an aggregate of $200,000 per month will be funded throughout the Extension Period, or portion thereof, that is needed to complete an initial Business Combination which amount will be deposited into the Trust Account.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company had no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2023. The Company does not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company has not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

The Company does not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than described below.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company has engaged EBC as an advisor in connection with its Business Combination to assist it in holding meetings with its stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing its securities in connection with its initial Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the Business Combination and assist it with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay EBC a cash fee of up to $4.2 million for such services upon the consummation of its initial Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable); provided that up to 30% of the fee may be allocated at its sole discretion to other Financial Industry Regulatory Authority members that assist us in identifying or consummating an initial Business Combination. The Company will also pay EBC a cash fee of up to 1% of the gross proceeds from the Public Offering as a fee for introducing the Company to target companies for an initial Business Combination.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on March 22, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares and Representative Shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and any units issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to us (and underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities.

The holders of a majority of the Representative Shares, Private Units and units issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to us (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, EBC. may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the Registration Statement. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to consummation of a Business Combination; provided, however, that EBC may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the Registration Statement.

The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the Public Offering to purchase up to 1,800,000 additional units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, or $2.40 million in the aggregate, paid at the closing of the Public Offering. On March 30, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 843,937 units at $10.00 per unit. In connection with the underwriters’ partial exercise of the over-allotment option on March 30, 2021, the underwriters were paid an additional cash underwriting fee of approximately $0.17 million.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of up to $0.01 million per month, from the effective date of the Registration Statement, for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Services will terminate upon the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. For the three months March 31, 2023, the Company incurred $0.03 million for these services, of which such amount is included in the operating costs on the accompanying statements of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred $0.03 million for these services, of which such amount is included in the formation and operating costs on the accompanying statements of operations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The Company has identified the following as its critical accounting policies:

Net Profit (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net profit (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net profit (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. The calculation of diluted profit (loss) per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

Warrants

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and ASC Subtopic 815-15.

The Company accounts for the warrants, as either equity or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and the applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The assessment considers whether the Warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to its own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of its control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance of the warrants and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

The Private Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC Subtopic 815-40. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the

28

Table of Contents

Company’s statement of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants was initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently, the fair value of the Private Warrants have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model each measurement date.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for the common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares of common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including shares of common stock that feature 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s shares of common stock that were sold as part of units in the Public Offering feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.

On March 3, 2023, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement for a special meeting on March 21, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”) to seek approval from its stockholders to amend the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to extend the date by which the Company is required to complete its initial Business Combination from March 25, 2023 to September 25, 2023 (the “Extension Proposal”) and to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or convenient, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Extension Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”). The Extension Proposal and Adjournment Proposal were approved on March 21, 2023.

In connection with approval of the Extension Proposal, the holders of 7,744,085 shares of common stock of the Company properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.17 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $78.8 million. As a result, on April 3, 2023, approximately $78.8 million was removed from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such holders, following which, 5,099,852 shares of common stock subject to redemption, remain outstanding.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments.

The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15f and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023. Based upon their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of March 31, 2023.

Our internal control over financial reporting did not result in the application of complex financial instruments and complex accounting matters issued in March 2021 which, due to its impact on our financial statements, we determined to be a material weakness.

The Company restated its financial statements included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2021, and March 31, 2021, and Current Report on Form 8-K as of March 25, 2021, to reclassify all the Company’s common stock subject to possible redemption in temporary equity.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described herein, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management identified a material weakness in internal controls related to application of complex financial instruments and complex accounting matters as described above. To respond to this material weakness, we have devoted, and plan to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Not required for a smaller reporting company. However, as of the date of this Report, except as set forth below, there have been no material changes with respect to those risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s fillings with the SEC.

Market conditions, economic uncertainty or downturns could adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and our ability to consummate a Business Combination.

In recent years, the United States and other markets have experienced cyclical or episodic downturns, and worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, the Ukraine-Russia conflict, instability in the U.S. and global banking systems, rising fuel prices, increasing interest rates or foreign exchange rates and high inflation and the possibility of a recession. A significant downturn in economic conditions may make it more difficult for us to consummate a Business Combination.

We cannot predict the timing, strength, or duration of any future economic slowdown or any subsequent recovery generally, or in any industry. If the conditions in the general economy and the markets in which we operate worsen from present levels, our business, financial condition, operating results and our ability to consummate a Business Combination could be adversely affected. For example, in January 2023, the outstanding national debt of the U.S. government reached its statutory limit. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Department”) has announced that, since then, it has been using extraordinary measures to prevent the U.S. government’s default on its payment obligations, and to extend the time that the U.S. government has to raise its statutory debt limit or otherwise resolve its funding situation. The failure by Congress to raise the federal debt ceiling could have severe repercussions within the U.S. and to global credit and financial markets. If Congress does not raise the debt ceiling, the U.S. government could default on its payment obligations, or experience delays in making payments when due. A payment default or delay by the U.S. government, or continued uncertainty surrounding the U.S. debt ceiling, could result in a variety of adverse effects for financial markets, market participants and U.S. and global economic conditions. In addition, U.S. debt ceiling and budget deficit concerns have increased the possibility a downgrade in the credit rating of the U.S. government and could result in economic slowdowns or a recession in the U.S. Although U.S. lawmakers have passed legislation to raise the federal debt ceiling on multiple occasions, ratings agencies have lowered or threatened to lower the long-term sovereign credit rating on the United States as a result of disputes over the debt ceiling. The impact of a potential downgrade to the U.S. government’s sovereign credit rating or its perceived creditworthiness could adversely affect economic conditions, as well as our business, financial condition, operating results and our ability to consummate a Business Combination.

A 1% U.S. federal excise tax may be imposed on us in connection with our redemptions of shares in connection with a Business Combination or other stockholder vote pursuant to which stockholders would have a right to submit their shares for redemption (a “Redemption Event”).

Pursuant to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”), commencing in 2023, a 1% U.S. federal excise tax is imposed on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation and not on its stockholders. The amount of the excise tax is equal to 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. The Treasury Department has authority to promulgate regulations and provide other guidance regarding the excise tax. In December 2022, the Treasury Department issued Notice 2023-2, indicating its intention to propose such regulations and issuing certain interim rules on which taxpayers may rely. Under the interim rules, liquidating distributions made by publicly traded domestic corporations are exempt from the excise tax. In addition, any redemptions that occur in the same taxable year as a liquidation is completed will also be exempt from such tax. Accordingly, redemptions of our public shares in connection with an extension of the Combination Period may subject us to the excise tax, unless one

31

Table of Contents

of the two exceptions above apply. Such redemptions would only occur if an extension of the Combination Period is approved by our stockholders and such extension is implemented by the board of directors.

If the deadline for us to complete a Business Combination (currently September 25, 2023) is extended, our public stockholders will have the right to require us to redeem their public shares. Any redemption or other repurchase may be subject to the excise tax. The extent to which we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Redemption Event would depend on a number of factors, including: (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Redemption Event, (ii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with the Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with the Redemption Event but issued within the same taxable year of the Business Combination), (iii) if we fail to timely consummate a Business Combination and liquidate in a taxable year subsequent to the year in which a Redemption Event occurs and (iv) the content of any proposed or final regulations and other guidance from the Treasury Department. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by us and not by the redeeming holders, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax remain to be determined. Any excise tax payable by us in connection with a Redemption Event may cause a reduction in the cash available to us to complete a Business Combination and could affect our ability to complete a Business Combination.

To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, On April 11, 2023, we instructed the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of the consummation of our initial Business Combination or our liquidation. As a result, we may receive less interest on the funds held in the Trust Account than the interest we would have received pursuant to our original Trust Account investments, which could reduce the dollar amount our public stockholders would receive upon any redemption or our liquidation.

The funds in the Trust Account had, since our initial public offering, been held in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, on April 11, 2023, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to be an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act) and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, we instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of the consummation of our initial Business Combination or liquidation. Following such liquidation, we may receive less interest on the funds held in the Trust Account than the interest we would have received pursuant to our original Trust Account investments; however, interest previously earned on the funds held in the Trust Account still may be released to us to pay our taxes, if any, and certain other expenses as permitted. Consequently, the transfer of the funds in the Trust Account to an interest-bearing demand deposit could reduce the dollar amount our public stockholders would receive upon any redemption or our liquidation.

In the event that we may be deemed to be an investment company, we may be required to liquidate the Company.
