 NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

TG Venture Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on February 8, 2021, for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 8, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”).

The Company’s sponsor is Tsangs Group Holdings Limited (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on November 2, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On November 5, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares” and the warrants included in the Units being offered, the “Public Warrants”) at $10.00 per Unit, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment of 1,500,000 Units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement of 5,500,000 Warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,500,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $3,040,822 consisting of $1,150,000 of underwriting commissions, $575,000 of fair value of the Units issued to ThinkEquity LLC (“ThinkEquity”), the representative of the underwriters (see Note 6), $579,110 of fair value of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) sold to advisors in excess of proceeds (see Note 5), and $736,712 of other offering costs, and was all charged to stockholders’ equity.

While the Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the cash held outside of the Trust Account (as hereinafter defined), substantially all of the net proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, which are placed in the Trust Account, are intended to be applied generally toward completing a Business Combination. The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

Following the closing of the IPO on November 5, 2021, $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of Units in the IPO and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were deposited into a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and are invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its franchise and income tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of: (a) the completion of the initial Business Combination; (b) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation: (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or certain amendments to the Company’s charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of this offering November 5, 2023; or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity; and (c) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the required time frame (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

Public stockholders have the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to voting on the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.20 per public share.

The Company will only proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon the consummation of such Business Combination, and, if the Company seeks public 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 listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (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 listing requirements, 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 IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

The Company has 24 months from the closing of the IPO until November 5, 2023 to complete the initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). In connection with the Extension (defined below), the Sponsor will deposit monthly extension payments into the Trust Account on each of May 5, 2023 and on the 5^th day of each subsequent month until November 5, 2023. As of the date hereof, four monthly extension payments, in the aggregate principal amount of $213,711, have been deposited into the Trust Account. As such, the current termination date is October 5, 2023. If the Company is unable to complete the initial 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 no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, 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 interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 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 board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The initial stockholders, Sponsor, executive officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares if we are forced to liquidate; (ii) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation: (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or certain amendments to the charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combined Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity; and (iii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period; (iv) the Founder Shares are shares of the Company’s Class B common stock that will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at the time of the initial Business Combination, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as described herein, and (v) are entitled to registration rights. If the Company submits the initial Business Combination to the public stockholders for a vote, the initial stockholders, officers and directors have agreed pursuant to the letter agreement to vote any shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial Business Combination.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will 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 entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Public Share; and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any 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 (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assent that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Proposed Business Combination

On December 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among (i) The Flexi Group Limited, a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “Flexi”), (ii) The Flexi Group Holdings, Ltd., a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Flexi (“PubCo” and, together with Flexi, the “Flexi Group”), (iii) The Flexi Merger Co. Ltd., a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), and (iv) Flexi Merger Co. LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2” and, Merger Sub 2, PubCo and Merger Sub 1, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity”).

Capitalized terms used in this section, but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into Flexi (the “Initial Merger”), whereby the separate existence of Merger Sub 1 will cease and Flexi will be the surviving entity of the Initial Merger and become a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, and (ii) following confirmation of the effective filing of the documents required to implement the Initial Merger, Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into TGVC (the “SPAC Merger” and together with the Initial Merger, the “Mergers”), the separate existence of Merger Sub 2 will cease and the Company will be the surviving entity of the SPAC Merger and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.

As a result of the Mergers, among other things, (i) each outstanding Flexi Ordinary Share will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive such number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that is equal to the Company Exchange Ratio, (ii) each outstanding SPAC Unit will be automatically detached and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one share of SPAC Class A Common Stock and one SPAC Warrant, (iii) each outstanding share of SPAC Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into SPAC Class A Common Stock, (iv) each outstanding share of SPAC Class A Common Stock will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive such number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that is equal to the SPAC Exchange Ratio, and (v) each outstanding SPAC Warrant will be assumed by PubCo and converted into a warrant to purchase PubCo Ordinary Shares (each, an “Assumed SPAC Warrant”).

Earnout

The Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, provides that Flexi shareholders as of the Initial Merger will have the right to receive up to an aggregate of 2,900,000 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares based on the total annual revenues of PubCo in each of the two fiscal years following the Closing Date.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The Business Combination Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, which will not survive the Closing. Many of the representations and warranties are qualified by materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect (with respect to Flexi) or SPAC Material Adverse Effect (with respect to the Company). “Material Adverse Effect” as used in the Business Combination Agreement means with respect to Flexi or the Company, as applicable, any event, state of facts, development, change, circumstance, occurrence or effect that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on (i) the business, assets and liabilities, results of operations or financial condition of the applicable party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (ii) the ability of such party or any of its subsidiaries to consummate the Transactions, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions. Certain of the representations are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Business Combination Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination Agreement also contains pre-closing covenants of the parties, including obligations of the parties to operate their respective businesses in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, and to refrain from taking certain specified actions without the prior written consent of the other applicable parties, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Additionally, the parties have agreed not to solicit, negotiate or enter into competing transactions, as further provided in the Business Combination Agreement. The covenants do not survive the Closing (other than those that are to be performed after the Closing).

As promptly as practicable after the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company and PubCo have agreed to prepare and file with the SEC, a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (as amended, the “F-4 Registration Statement”) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of the offer and issuance of the PubCo Ordinary Shares and Assumed SPAC Warrants to be issued pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement The F-4 Registration Statement will contain a proxy statement/prospectus for the purpose of (i) the Company soliciting proxies from its shareholders to approve the Business Combination Agreement, the Transactions and related matters (the “the Company Shareholder Approval”) at a special meeting of the Company shareholders (the “Shareholder Meeting”), (ii) providing the Company’s shareholders an opportunity, in accordance with its organizational documents and initial public offering prospectus, to redeem their shares of SPAC Class A Common Stock (collectively, the “Redemptions”), and (iii) PubCo’s offering and issuance of the PubCo Ordinary Shares and Assumed Warrants in connection with the Transactions. PubCo filed the initial F-4 Registration Statement on February 13, 2023.

PubCo agreed to take all action within its power so that effective at the Closing, the board of directors of PubCo will consist of no less than five individuals, two of whom may be designated by the Sponsor, and a majority of whom shall be independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq requirements, and which shall comply with all diversity requirements under applicable Law.

In addition, prior to Closing, PubCo agreed to amend and restate its Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association (the “PubCo Governing Documents”). The PubCo Governing Documents will include customary provisions for a memorandum of association and articles of association of a British Virgin Islands publicly traded company that is traded on Nasdaq.

Conditions to the Parties’ Obligations to Consummate the Mergers

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the parties’ obligations to consummate the Transactions are subject to a number of customary conditions for special purpose acquisition companies, including, among others, the following: (i) the approval of the Mergers and the other shareholder proposals required to approve the Transactions by the Company’s and Flexi’s shareholders, (ii) all specified approvals or consents (including governmental and regulatory approvals) have been obtained and all waiting, notice, or review periods have expired or been terminated, as applicable, (iii) the effectiveness of the F-4 Registration Statement, (iv) PubCo’s initial listing application with Nasdaq shall have been conditionally approved and, immediately following the Closing, PubCo shall satisfy any applicable initial and continuing listing requirements of Nasdaq and PubCo shall not have received any notice of non-compliance therewith, and (v) the PubCo Ordinary Shares and Assumed SPAC Warrants having been approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to round lot holder requirements.

In addition to these customary closing conditions, the Company must also hold net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to Closing, net of Redemptions and liabilities (including the Company’s transaction expenses).

The obligations of the Company to consummate the Transactions are also subject to, among other things (i) the representations and warranties of Flexi and of each Acquisition Entity being true and correct, subject to the materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) material compliance by Flexi and each Acquisition Entity with its pre-closing covenants, and (iii) the absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect.

In addition, the obligations of Flexi to consummate the Transactions are also subject to, among other things (i) the representations and warranties of the Company being true and correct, subject to the materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) material compliance by the Company with its pre-closing covenants, and (iii) the absence of a SPAC Material Adverse Effect.

Termination Rights

The Business Combination Agreement contains certain termination rights, including, among others, the following: (i) upon the mutual written consent of the Company and Flexi, (ii) if the consummation of the Transactions is prohibited by governmental order, (iii) if the Closing has not occurred on or before November 5, 2023, (iv) in connection with a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement by Flexi or the Company which is not capable of being cured or is not cured within 30 days after receipt of notice of such breach, (v) by either the Company or Flexi if the board of directors of the other party publicly changes its recommendation with respect to the Business Combination Agreement and Transactions and related shareholder approvals under certain circumstances detailed in the Business Combination Agreement, (vi) by either the Company or Flexi if the Shareholder Meeting is held and the Company Shareholder Approval is not received, (vii) by the Company if the requisite Company Audited Financial Statements and PCAOB-compliant unaudited financials of Flexi for the first, second and third quarters of 2022 (to the extent required in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement) have not been delivered by January 4, 2023, with respect to the first and second quarters, and January 16, 2023, with respect to the third quarter, or (viii) by the Company if Flexi does not receive the written consent of its shareholders to the Business Combination Agreement and related approvals within five business days after the F-4 Registration Statement has become effective. The shareholder approval received at the Special Meeting of Shareholders held on May 4, 2023, effectively extended the date that the Closing must occur to November 5, 2023 (See, “Note 9 – Subsequent Events”).

None of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement are required to pay a termination fee or reimburse any other party for its expenses as a result of a termination of the Business Combination Agreement. However, each party will remain liable for willful and material breaches of the Business Combination Agreement prior to termination.

Trust Account Waiver

Flexi and each Acquisition Entity agreed that it and its affiliates will not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Company’s trust account held for its public shareholders, and agreed not to, and waived any right to, make any claim against the trust account (including any distributions therefrom).

The Business Combination Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Business Combination Agreement. The Business Combination Agreement provides investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Business Combination Agreement were made as of the execution date of the Business Combination Agreement only and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties to each other in connection with the signing of the Business Combination Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies, and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement as characterizations of the actual statements of fact about the parties.

Shareholder Support Agreement

Contemporaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, PubCo, Flexi and certain Flexi shareholders entered into a Shareholder Support Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, certain Flexi shareholders agreed (i) to vote their Flexi shares in favor of the Business Combination Agreement (including by execution of a written consent), the Mergers and the other Transactions, (ii) to waive any rights to seek appraisal or rights of dissent in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, the Mergers and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (iii) to consent to the termination of all shareholder agreements with Flexi (with certain exceptions), effective at Closing, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Shareholder Support Agreement. Flexi shareholders party to the Shareholder Support Agreement collectively have a sufficient number of votes to approve the Business Combination Agreement, the Mergers and the other Transactions.

The Shareholder Support Agreement and all of its provisions will terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of the Closing and termination of the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to its terms. Upon such termination of the Shareholder Support Agreement, all obligations of the parties under the Shareholder Support Agreement will terminate; provided, however, that such termination will not relieve any party thereto from liability arising in respect of any breach of the Shareholder Support Agreement prior to such termination.

Sponsor Support Agreement

Contemporaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement with the Sponsor, PubCo, Flexi, and certain members of the Company’s board of directors and management team (the “Holders”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor and the Holders agreed to vote their the Company shares in favor of the Business Combination Agreement (including by execution of a written consent), the Mergers and the other Transactions, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement.

The Sponsor Support Agreement and all of its provisions will terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier to occur of Closing and termination of the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to its terms.

Lock-Up Agreement

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company and PubCo entered into separate Lock-Up Agreements (each a “Lock-Up Agreement”) with Sponsor, certain members of the Company’s board of directors and management team, and certain Flexi shareholders, pursuant to which 95% of the PubCo Ordinary Shares to be received by such shareholders will be locked-up and subject to transfer restrictions for a period of time following the Closing, as described below, subject to certain exceptions. That portion of the securities held by such shareholders will be locked-up until the earliest of: (i) the six month anniversary of the date of the Closing, (ii) subsequent to the Business Combination, if the last sale price of PubCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the date of the Business Combination, and (iii) the date after the Closing on which PubCo completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of PubCo’s shareholders having the right to exchange their equity holdings in PubCo for cash, securities or other property.

Registration Rights Agreement

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, PubCo entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Sponsor and certain Flexi shareholders pursuant to which, among other things, PubCo agreed to provide Sponsor and such shareholders with certain rights relating to the registration for resale under the Securities Act of the PubCo Ordinary Shares and Assumed Warrants that they received in the Mergers.

Forms of the foregoing agreements related to the Business Combination Transaction are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report, and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the respective agreement.

The transaction is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. After closing, The Flexi Group’s ordinary shares are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under ticker symbol FLXG.

Shareholder Approval – Charter Amendments

The Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) on May 4, 2023. At the Special Meeting, shareholders approved the following proposals:

Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — to amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Charter”) to extend the time period we have to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”) for an additional six months, from May 5, 2023 to November 5, 2023 (such new date, the “Extended Date” and such amendment, the “Charter Amendment”); and,

Proposal No. 2 — The Trust Amendment Proposal — to amend the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated November 2, 2021, by and between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and the Company (the “Trust Agreement”), to extend the Combination Period for an additional six months, from May 5, 2023 to November 5, 2023 (the “Trust Amendment” and together with the Charter Amendment, the “Extension”).

Pursuant to our Charter, we provided the holders of shares of our Class A common stock (the “Public Shares” and such holders, the “Public Stockholders”) originally sold as part of the Units issued in our IPO (the “IPO”) with the opportunity to redeem, in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal (the “Election”), their Public Shares for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established by us and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“CST”) to hold the proceeds of the IPO (the “Trust Account”), including interest not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.

On April 30, 2023, we and our Sponsor entered into an agreement (the ”Non-Redemption Agreement”) with Bulldog Investors, LLP (“Bulldog”) and Phillip Goldstein (“Goldstein” and, together with Bulldog, the “Investors”) in exchange for the Investors agreeing not to redeem shares of the Company’s Class A common stock sold in the Company’s IPO (the “Public Shares”) at the Special Meeting. The Non-Redemption Agreement provides for, among other things, the Sponsor to pay approximately $105,000 to the Investors in exchange for the Investors agreeing to hold and not redeem certain Public Shares at the Special Meeting.

Holders of 10,164,304 shares of the Company’s Common Stock exercised their right to redeem their shares (and did not withdraw their redemption), which represents approximately 88% of the shares that were part of the shares that were sold in the Company’s IPO, for a cash redemption price of approximately $10.39 per share, or an aggregate redemption amount of $105,619,702. Following such redemptions, approximately $13,879,535 will remain in the trust account and 1,335,696 shares of Common Stock will remain issued and outstanding. Accordingly, all of the obligations of the parties to the Non-Redemption Agreement were fulfilled.

Additionally, pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Company has agreed that until the earlier of (a) the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination; (b) the liquidation of the trust account; and (c) 24 months from consummation of the Company’s IPO, the Company will maintain the investment of funds held in the trust account in interest-bearing United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The Company has also agreed that it will not use any amounts in the trust account, or the interest earned thereon, to pay any excise tax that may be imposed on the Company pursuant to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “Inflation Reduction Act”) due to any redemptions of public shares at the Special Meeting, including in connection with a liquidation of the Company if it does not effect a business combination prior to its termination date by the Company (see Note 6). The Non-Redemption Agreement is not expected to increase the likelihood that the Extension Proposals are approved by stockholders but will increase the amount of funds that remain in the Company’s trust account following the Special Meeting.

In connection with the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Company amended its advisory agreement with ThinkEquity LLC and agreed to pay ThinkEquity LLC an advisory fee of $50,000.

Also, in connection with the Non-Redemption Agreement, a director of the Company agreed to provide a loan to the Sponsor in the principal amount of approximately $105,000.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $400,000 (see Note 5) which was fully repaid on December 31, 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $809,199 in its operating bank account and working capital deficit of $4,467,587.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

The Company expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company will not have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

On March 16, 2023, the Sponsor issued a promissory note allowing the Company to borrow up to $3,000,000 under an unsecured promissory note to be used to defray expenses in connection with the proposed Business Combination. The promissory note is payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination. $350,000 in previously advanced fund from the Sponsor is included as part of the principal of the promissory note and is therefore not available for further use by the Company (see Notes 5 and 10).

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of the Business Combination, the Company’s existing cash and working capital as of June 30, 2023 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities for a reasonable period of time, and the date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through November 5, 2023, the scheduled liquidation date of the Company if it does not complete a Business Combination prior to such date. These conditions also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that these unaudited financial statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination as discussed above. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these unaudited financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited financial statements.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future interim 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 Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (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 independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 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 a 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 statement 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 the unaudited financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires 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 unaudited financial statements. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgement. 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 unaudited 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 significantly from those estimates. The significant accounting estimate reflected in the Company’s unaudited financial statements includes, but is not limited to, valuation of Founder Shares.

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. The Company had cash of $809,199 and $147,020 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities.

During the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company withdrew $1,179,378 of the interest income from the Trust Account to pay its tax obligations and $105,619,702 from the Trust Account in connection with redemptions. Additional withdrawals may occur in future period as permitted under the Trust Agreement.

A decline in the market value of held-to-maturity securities below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary, results in an impairment that reduces the carrying costs to such securities’ fair value. The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is established. To determine whether an impairment is other than temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and considers whether evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and the duration of the impairment, changes in value subsequent to year-end, forecasted performance of the investee, and the general market condition in the geographic area or industry in which the investee operates.

Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Such amortization and accretion are included in the “interest income” line item in the statements of operations. Interest income is recognized when earned.

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs”. Deferred offering costs consists of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments to be issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Upon closing of the IPO on November 5, 2021, offering costs associated with the Class A common stock and the warrants were charged to stockholders’ equity. Upon the IPO on November 5, 2021 offering costs amounted to $3,040,822, all of which was allocated to stockholders’ equity.

Share Based Compensation

The Company complies with ASC 718 Compensation- Stock Compensation, regarding interests in founder shares acquired by directors and advisors of the Company as compensation. The interests in the founder shares vested upon the Company completing the initial public offering and compensation expense has been recorded accordingly at that date based upon the initial grant date fair value. The determination of the fair value of the share-based compensation awards represents a significant estimate within the financial statements. The fair value is based upon a Monte Carlo valuation that considers the probability of an initial public offering, business combination and other risk factors.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to its short-term nature.

Fair Value Measurements

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:

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’(deficit) equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective with the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. There was $1,609,227 increase in the redemption value at June 30, 2023 since the interest earned to date from marketable securities held in Trust Account exceed the franchise taxes incurred and provision for income taxes to date. The dissolution expense of $100,000 is not included in the redemption value of the shares subject to redemption since it is only taken into account in the event of the Company’s liquidation.

As of June 30, 2023, common stock subject to possible redemption exceeded cash held in Trust Account by $14,125 due to over withdrawal of interest earned on Trust Account for tax-related obligations. This difference will be settled in the third quarter of 2023.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheets is reconciled in the following table:

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

If the stock subject to mandatory redemptions provisions represents the only shares in the reporting entity, it must report instruments in the liabilities section of its statements of financial position. The stock subject must then describe them as shares subject to mandatory redemption, so as to distinguish the instruments from other financial statement liabilities. The Company concludes that the Company’s warrants defined in Note 7 do not exhibit any of the above characteristics and, therefore, are outside the scope of ASC 480.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the 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 of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. The Company accounts for the 11,500,000 Public Warrants (Note 3) and 5,500,000 Private Placement Warrants (Note 4) as equity-classified instruments.

Net Loss Per Common Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The Company had not considered the effect of the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 5,500,000 of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since their exercise is contingent upon future events. As a result, diluted net loss per common stock is the same as basic net loss per common stock. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per share for each class of common stock.

Reconciliation of Net Loss per Common Stock

Basic and diluted net loss per share for Class A common stock and for Class B common stock is calculated as follows:

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full valuation allowance recorded against it.

ASC 740-270-25-2 requires that an annual effective tax rate be determined, and such annual effective rate applied to year to date income in interim periods under ASC 740-270-30-5. The Company’s effective tax rate was 30.34% and (0.40%) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 79.99% and (1.36%) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, due to changes in the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

While ASC 740 identifies usage of an effective annual tax rate for purposes of an interim provision, it does allow for estimating individual elements in the current period if they are significant, unusual, or infrequent. Computing the effective tax rate for the Company is complicated due to the potential impact of the timing of any Business Combination expenses and the actual interest income that will be recognized during the year. The Company has taken a position as to the calculation of income tax expense in a current period based on ASC 740-270-25-3 which states, “If an entity is unable to estimate a part of its ordinary income (or loss) or the related tax (or benefit) but is otherwise able to make a reasonable estimate, the tax (or benefit) applicable to the item that cannot be estimated shall be reported in the interim period in which the item is reported.” The Company believes its calculation to be a reliable estimate and allows it to properly take into account the usual elements that can impact its annualized book income and its impact on the effective tax rate. As such, the Company is computing its taxable income (or loss) and associated income tax provision based on actual results through June 30, 2023.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company has identified the United States as its only “major” tax jurisdiction. The Company is subject to income taxation by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had not experienced losses on this account. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $809,199 and $147,020, respectively, in its cash account.

Recent Accounting Standards

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

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

On November 5, 2021, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase 1,500,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each unit consists of one Public Share, an aggregate of 11,500,000 Public Shares, and one redeemable Public Warrant, an aggregate of 11,500,000 Public Warrants. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

Note 4 — Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,500,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant in a private placement, for an aggregate purchase price of $5,500,000. Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments (see Note 7), and will expire worthless if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants except that they will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the Business Combination except to certain permitted transferees.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In 2021, the Sponsor and other founders (the “Initial Stockholder”) paid $25,982 in exchange for 2,889,149 shares of Common stock (the “Founder Shares”). The number of Founder Shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of the IPO would be a maximum of 11,500,000 Units if the underwriter’s over-allotment option was exercised in full, and therefore that such Founder Shares represent 20% of the outstanding shares after the IPO.

Two of the initial stockholders, TriPoint Capital Management, LLC (“TriPoint”), a Delaware limited liability company, and HFI Limited (“HFI”), a Cayman Islands company, serve in an advisory capacity to the Sponsor with the Company being a primary beneficiary, and their participation in the purchase of Founder Shares is considered as part of their compensation as advisors. Accordingly, upon consummation of the IPO on November 5, 2021, the Company recorded the excess fair value above the purchase price of the 300,000 Founder Shares purchased by TriPoint and HFI as an offering cost of $579,110, which were charged to stockholders’ equity.

On November 2, 2021, the Sponsor entered into an Agreement with the Company’s three independent directors under which they were each assigned 30,000 of the Founder Shares the Sponsor owned, as an inducement to serve as directors of the Company, for which they paid $0.009 per share, or an aggregate of $810. The shares are vested upon the consummation of the IPO. The fair value of the 90,000 shares at November 2, 2021, was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model to be approximately $706,000 in the aggregate, which the Company recorded as director compensation expense.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign, or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) nine months after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property, except with respect to permitted transferees.

Due from Related Party

Pursuant to the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal the Sponsor will deposit extension-related contributions into the Trust Account. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company contributed $106,856 on behalf of the Sponsor to extend the termination date. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $106,856 and $0, respectively, outstanding under due from related party.

Advance from Related Party

On May 10, 2023, pursuant to the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal the contributions made by Sponsor to the Trust Account to extend the termination date will be evidenced by a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note and will be repayable upon consummation of an initial Business Combination. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has contributed $106,856 to the Trust Account in which will be reimbursed by Sponsor.

Promissory Note — Related Party

The Sponsor issued a promissory note allowing the Company to borrow up to $400,000 under an unsecured promissory note to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The Company had borrowed $227,690 under the promissory note. At December 31, 2021, the Company fully repaid the outstanding promissory note.

On March 16, 2023, the Sponsor issued a promissory note allowing the Company to borrow up to $3,000,000 under an unsecured promissory note to be used to defray expenses in connection with the proposed Business Combination. The promissory note is payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination. $350,000 in previously advanced fund from the Sponsor is included as part of the principal of the promissory note and is therefore not available for further use by the Company. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company have $519,000 and $0 outstanding promissory notes, respectively.

Due to Related Parties

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $8,885 and $106,215, respectively, outstanding under due to related parties including the monthly administrative service fee.

Working Capital Loans

The Sponsor has committed that they are willing and able to provide the Company with any additional funds it needs to carry out its operations. In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors have committed to loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an initial Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, such loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that the initial 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 Trust Account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to $3,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post Business Combination entity, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

Administrative Service Fee

The Company entered into an administrative services agreement on November 2, 2021, pursuant to which the Company will pay an affiliate of the Sponsor, $445 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. Total expense under the administrative services agreement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, were $1,335 and $2,670, respectively. Total expense under the administrative services agreement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, were $1,335 and $2,670, respectively.

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the Effective Date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Class A common stock). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company’s completion of the initial Business Combination.

Underwriting Agreement

On November 5, 2021, the Company paid a cash underwriting discount of 1.0% per Unit, or $1,150,000. In addition, the underwriting agreement provides the option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover any over-allotments, if any, at the Proposed Public Offering price of $10.00 less the underwriting discount of 1%. The over-allotment was exercised in full upon the IPO on November 5, 2021.

Representative Units

Simultaneous with the closing of the IPO, the Company issued to ThinkEquity, as part of representative compensation upon the consummation of the IPO, 57,500 Representative Units (the “Representative Units”). The Representative Units consist of one share of Class A common stock and one redeemable warrant to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Representative Units are identical to the Units except, and so long as the Representative Units are held by ThinkEquity (and/or its designees) or its permitted transferees, they (i) may not (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis, (iii) will be entitled to registration rights and (iv) will not be exercisable more than five years from the Effective Date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(G)(i). ThinkEquity has agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to the warrants underlying the Representative Units in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such warrants if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO.

Advisory Services Agreement

On December 23, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with ThinkEquity to provide financial advisory services in connection with the proposed Business Combination with The Flexi Group Ltd. The Company shall pay ThinkEquity an advisory fee for the Advisory Services in an amount equal to greater of either (i) 4.0% of the net funds from the Company’s Trust Account after investor redemptions, or (ii) $300,000, which fee shall be due and payable in immediately available funds on the day of closing of the proposed Business Combination. In addition to any fees which may be payable to ThinkEquity under the agreement, the Company shall reimburse ThinkEquity, upon reasonable request made from time to time, for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Advisory Services up to a maximum of $15,000, including, but not limited to, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of ThinkEquity’s legal counsel.

In connection with the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Company amended its advisory agreement with ThinkEquity LLC and agreed to pay ThinkEquity LLC an advisory fee of $50,000.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 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. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

On May 10, 2023, the Company’s stockholders redeemed 10,164,304 shares of Class A shares of common stock for a total of $105,619,702. The Company evaluated the classification and accounting of the stock redemption under ASC 450, “Contingencies”. ASC 450 states that when a loss contingency exists the likelihood that the future event(s) will confirm the loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability can range from probable to remote. A contingent liability must be reviewed at each reporting period to determine appropriate treatment. The Company evaluated the current status and probability of completing a Business Combination as of June 30, 2023 and concluded that it is probable that a contingent liability should be recorded. As of June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $1,056,197 of excise tax liability calculated as 1% of shares redeemed on May 10, 2023.

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. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 57,500 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding (excluding 1,335,696 and 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively).

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 2,889,149 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of the Class A common stock at the time of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

Warrants – At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 5,500,000 Private Placement Warrants are currently outstanding. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at a Newly Issued Price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the 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 its affiliates, 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 the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) The Market Value (defined as the volume weighted average reported trading price of Class A Common Stock for twenty trading days starting on the trading day prior to the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination) 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 the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

Each warrant is exercisable at any time commencing on the later of 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination and 12 months from the closing of the IPO and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is five (5) years after the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination, (ii) at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Redemption Date as provided in the Warrant Agreement and (iii) the liquidation of the Trust Account (the “Expiration Date”). The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration of the Warrants by delaying the Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Company will provide at least twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any such extension to registered holders and, provided further that any such extension shall be applied consistently to all of the Warrants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for so long as any Private Warrant is held by the Sponsor and/or their designees, such Private Warrant may not be exercised after five years from the Effective Date of the Registration Statement. The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the warrant expiration date, which is five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. On the exercise of any warrant, the warrant exercise price will be paid directly to the Company and not placed in the Trust Account.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable, and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a Unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the share of Class A common stock underlying such Unit.

The Company is not registering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants at this time. However, the Company has agreed that as soon as practicable after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within 60 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.

Redemption of warrants:

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” the management will consider, among other factors, its cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If the Company’s management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Class A common stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption.

Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to the short maturities of such instruments.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the period ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Note 9 — Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Except as disclosed in the footnotes elsewhere and below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statements.

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated December 5, 2022. The First Amendment revises the earnout periods set forth in the Business Combination Agreement to provide that Flexi shareholders may receive earnout shares based on PubCo revenue targets achieved during the first two full fiscal years following the closing of the business combination to be effected pursuant thereto.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on February 8, 2021, as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

While our efforts to identify a target business may span many industries and regions worldwide, we intend to focus our search for prospects within the space technology, financial technology, technology, media and telecom (“TMT”) industries and related sectors. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. Though our sponsor is a Hong Kong company, a majority of our management are located outside of China (including Hong Kong and Macau) and we will not undertake our initial business combination with any entity that conducts a majority of its business or is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the IPO and the private placement of the placement warrants, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our initial business combination (pursuant to backstop agreements we may enter into following the consummation of the IPO or otherwise), shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.

The issuance of additional shares in connection with an initial business combination to the owners of the target or other investors:

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or the owners of a target, it could result in:

Our sponsor is Tsangs Group Holdings Limited (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for our IPO was declared effective on November 2, 2021. On November 5, 2021, we consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares” and the warrants included in the Units being offered, the “Public Warrants”) at $10.00 per Unit, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment of 1,500,000 Units. Transaction costs amounted to $3,040,822 consisting of $1,150,000 of underwriting commissions, $575,000 of fair value of the Units issued to ThinkEquity LLC (“ThinkEquity”), the representative of the underwriters, $579,110 of fair value of the Founder Shares sold to advisors in excess of proceeds, and $736,712 of other offering costs, and was all charged to shareholders’ equity.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement of 5,500,000 Warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,500,000.

Upon the closing of the IPO and the Private Placement, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of Units in the IPO and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was deposited into a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and will be invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay its franchise and income tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of: (a) the completion of the initial Business Combination; (b) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation: (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if we are unable to complete the initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of this offering November 5, 2023; or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity; and (c) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares if we are unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the required time frame (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

We have 24 months from the closing of the IPO, until November 5, 2023 (the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial Business Combination. In connection with the Extension (defined below), the Sponsor will deposit monthly extension payments into the Trust Account on each of May 5, 2023 and on the 5th day of each subsequent month until November 5, 2023. As of the date hereof, four monthly extension payments, in the aggregate principal amount of $213,711, have been deposited into the Trust Account. As such, the current termination date is October 5, 2023. If we are unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, 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 interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 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 our remaining stockholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

On December 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among (i) The Flexi Group Limited, a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “Flexi”), (ii) The Flexi Group Holdings, Ltd., a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Flexi (“PubCo” and, together with Flexi, the “Flexi Group”), (iii) The Flexi Merger Co. Ltd., a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), and (iv) Flexi Merger Co. LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2” and, Merger Sub 2, PubCo and Merger Sub 1, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity”). Capitalized terms used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into Flexi (the “Initial Merger”), whereby the separate existence of Merger Sub 1 will cease and Flexi will be the surviving entity of the Initial Merger and become a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, and (ii) following confirmation of the effective filing of the documents required to implement the Initial Merger, Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into TGVC (the “SPAC Merger” and together with the Initial Merger, the “Mergers”), the separate existence of Merger Sub 2 will cease and TGVC will be the surviving entity of the SPAC Merger and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.

As a result of the Mergers, among other things, (i) each outstanding Flexi Ordinary Share will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive such number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that is equal to the Company Exchange Ratio, (ii) each outstanding SPAC Unit will be automatically detached and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one share of SPAC Class A Common Stock and one SPAC Warrant, (iii) each outstanding share of SPAC Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into SPAC Class A Common Stock, (iv) each outstanding share of SPAC Class A Common Stock will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive such number of PubCo Ordinary Shares that is equal to the SPAC Exchange Ratio, and (v) each outstanding SPAC Warrant will be assumed by PubCo and converted into a warrant to purchase PubCo Ordinary Shares (each, an “Assumed SPAC Warrant”).

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the parties’ obligations to consummate the Transactions are subject to a number of customary conditions for special purpose acquisition companies, including, among others, the following: (i) the approval of the Mergers and the other shareholder proposals required to approve the Transactions by the Company’s and Flexi’s shareholders, (ii) all specified approvals or consents (including governmental and regulatory approvals) have been obtained and all waiting, notice, or review periods have expired or been terminated, as applicable, (iii) the effectiveness of the F-4 Registration Statement, (iv) PubCo’s initial listing application with Nasdaq shall have been conditionally approved and, immediately following the Closing, PubCo shall satisfy any applicable initial and continuing listing requirements of Nasdaq and PubCo shall not have received any notice of non-compliance therewith, and (v) the PubCo Ordinary Shares and Assumed SPAC Warrants having been approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to round lot holder requirements.

In addition to these customary closing conditions, the Company must also hold net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to Closing, net of Redemptions and liabilities (including the Company’s transaction expenses).

The transaction is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. After closing, The Flexi Group’s ordinary shares are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under ticker symbol FLXG.

Recent Events

On June 22, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s Class A common stock for the last 30 consecutive business days and its number of publicly held shares, the Company no longer meets Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(3)(C), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum market value of publicly held shares (“MVPHS”) of at least $15 million.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D) provides a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until December 19, 2023 (the “First Compliance Date”), in which to regain compliance with this requirement. If the Company’s market value of publicly held shares is $15 million or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the 180-day compliance period, Nasdaq will provide written notice of compliance to the Company. If the Company fails to regain compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing standards, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s class A common stock will be subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

On August 11, 2023, the Company received a written notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the minimum Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) of $50,000,000 required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “MVLS Requirement”). The Notice has no effect at this time on the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. 

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until February 7, 2024 (the “Second Compliance Date,” together with the First Compliance Date, the “Compliance Dates”), to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. To regain compliance, the Company’s MVLS must close at $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to the Compliance Date. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement prior to the Compliance Date, Nasdaq will notify the Company that its securities are subject to delisting, at which point the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. 

The notifications have no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A common stock on Nasdaq Global Market. The Company intends to actively monitor its MVPHS and MVLS between now and the respective Compliance Dates, and may, if appropriate, evaluate available options including applying for a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the requirements. While the Company is exercising diligent efforts to maintain the listing of its securities on Nasdaq Global, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with Nasdaq Global listing standards or satisfy the requirements necessary to transfer the listing of its securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market

Shareholder Approval – Charter Amendments

The Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) on May 4, 2023. At the Special Meeting, shareholders approved the following proposals:

Proposal No. 1 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — to amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Charter”) to extend the time period we have to consummate a business combination (the “Combination Period”) for an additional six months, from May 5, 2023 to November 5, 2023 (such new date, the “Extended Date” and such amendment, the “Charter Amendment”); and,

Proposal No. 2 — The Trust Amendment Proposal — to amend the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated November 2, 2021, by and between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and the Company (the “Trust Agreement”), to extend the Combination Period for an additional six months, from May 5, 2023 to November 5, 2023 (the “Trust Amendment” and together with the Charter Amendment, the “Extension”).

Pursuant to our Charter, we provided the holders of shares of our Class A common stock (the “Public Shares” and such holders, the “Public Stockholders”) originally sold as part of the Units issued in our IPO (the “IPO”) with the opportunity to redeem, in connection with the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal (the “Election”), their Public Shares for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established by us and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“CST”) to hold the proceeds of the IPO (the “Trust Account”), including interest not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.

On April 30, 2023, we and our Sponsor entered into an agreement (the ”Non-Redemption Agreement”) with Bulldog Investors, LLP (“Bulldog”) and Phillip Goldstein (“Goldstein” and, together with Bulldog, the “Investors”) in exchange for the Investors agreeing not to redeem shares of the Company’s Class A common stock sold in the Company’s IPO (the “Public Shares”) at the Special Meeting. The Non-Redemption Agreement provides for, among other things, the Sponsor to pay approximately $105,000 to the Investors in exchange for the Investors agreeing to hold and not redeem certain Public Shares at the Special Meeting.

Holders of 10,164,304 shares of the Company’s Common Stock exercised their right to redeem their shares (and did not withdraw their redemption), which represents approximately 88% of the shares that were part of the shares that were sold in the Company’s IPO, for a cash redemption price of approximately $10.39 per share, or an aggregate redemption amount of $105,619,702. Following such redemptions, approximately $13,879,535 will remain in the trust account and 1,335,696 shares of Common Stock will remain issued and outstanding. Accordingly, all of the obligations of the parties to the Non-Redemption Agreement were fulfilled.

Additionally, pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Company has agreed that until the earlier of (a) the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination; (b) the liquidation of the trust account; and (c) 24 months from consummation of the Company’s IPO, the Company will maintain the investment of funds held in the trust account in interest-bearing United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The Company has also agreed that it will not use any amounts in the trust account, or the interest earned thereon, to pay any excise tax that may be imposed on the Company pursuant to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “Inflation Reduction Act”) due to any redemptions of public shares at the Special Meeting, including in connection with a liquidation of the Company if it does not effect a business combination prior to its termination date by the Company. The Non-Redemption Agreement is not expected to increase the likelihood that the Extension Proposals are approved by stockholders but will increase the amount of funds that remain in the Company’s trust account following the Special Meeting.

In connection with the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Company amended its advisory agreement with ThinkEquity LLC and agreed to pay ThinkEquity LLC an advisory fee of $50,000.

Also, in connection with the Non-Redemption Agreement, a director of the Company agreed to provide a loan to the Sponsor in the principal amount of approximately $105,000.

 Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern

On November 5, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Common stock included in the Units that were offered, the “Public Shares” and the warrants included in the Units, the “Public Warrants”) at $10.00 per Unit, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment of 1,500,000 Units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement of 5,500,000 Warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,500,000, which is described in Note 4.

As of June 30, 2023, we had investments held in the Trust Account of $14,284,440 (including approximately $553,486 of dividend income and interest income) consisting of money market fund invested in treasury trust fund and matured U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through June 30, 2023, we have withdrawn $1,179,378 of interest earned from the Trust Account, as permitted under the Trust Agreement to pay tax obligations and $105,619,702 from the Trust Account in connection with redemptions.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of June 30, 2023, we had cash of $809,199 and working capital deficit of $4,467,587. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, 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 transaction.

Our sponsor has committed that they are willing and able to provide the Company with any additional funds it needs to carry out its operations. In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors have committed to loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an initial Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, such loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that the initial 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 Trust Account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to $3,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants of the post Business Combination entity, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

The Company expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will not have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of the Business Combination, the Company’s existing cash and working capital as of December 31, 2022 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities for a reasonable period of time, and the date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through November 5, 2023, the scheduled liquidation date of the Company if it does not complete a Business Combination prior to such date. These conditions also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through the Business Combination as discussed above. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these unaudited financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited financial statements.

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

 Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 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. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

On May 10, 2023, the Company’s stockholders redeemed 10,164,304 shares of Class A shares of common stock for a total of $105,619,702. The Company evaluated the classification and accounting of the stock redemption under ASC 450, “Contingencies”. ASC 450 states that when a loss contingency exists the likelihood that the future event(s) will confirm the loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability can range from probable to remote. A contingent liability must be reviewed at each reporting period to determine appropriate treatment. The Company evaluated the current status and probability of completing a Business Combination as of June 30, 2023 and concluded that it is probable that a contingent liability should be recorded. As of June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $1,056,197 of excise tax liability calculated as 1% of shares redeemed on May 10, 2023.

Results of Operations

As of June 30, 2023, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period ended June 30, 2023 relates to our formation and the IPO. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $626,410, which consists of formation and operating costs of $1,239,483 and provision for income tax of $145,819, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $758,892.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $110,762, which consists of formation and operating costs of $222,647 and provision for income tax of $1,488, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $113,373.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $907,322, which consists of formation and operating costs of $2,524,207 and provision for income tax of $403,222, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $2,020,107.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $372,453, which consists of formation and operating costs of $498,536 and provision for income tax of $1,488, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $127,571.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $929,343. Net loss of $907,322 was affected by interest earned on investments held in Trust account of $2,020,107 were primarily offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $1,998,086 of cash for operating activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $374,734. Net loss of $372,453 was affected by interest earned on investments held in a trust account located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”), of $127,571. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $125,290 of cash for operating activities.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities.

Administrative Services Agreement

We entered into an administrative services agreement on November 2, 2021, pursuant to which we will pay an affiliate of the Sponsor, $445 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees.

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the Effective Date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, requiring us to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Class A common stock). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of the initial Business Combination.

Underwriting Agreement

On November 5, 2021, we paid a cash underwriting discount of 1.0% per Unit, or $1,150,000.

Advisory Services Agreement

On December 23, 2022, we entered into an agreement with ThinkEquity to provide financial advisory services in connection with the proposed Business Combination with The Flexi Group Ltd. We shall pay ThinkEquity an advisory fee in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 4.0% of the net funds from our Trust Account after investor redemptions, or (ii) $300,000, which fee shall be due and payable in immediately available funds on the day of closing of the proposed Business Combination. In addition to any fees which may be payable to ThinkEquity under the agreement, we shall reimburse ThinkEquity, upon reasonable request made from time to time, for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Advisory Services up to a maximum of $15,000, including, but not limited to, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of ThinkEquity’s legal counsel.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We will account for our common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable 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) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our Common stock will feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and will be subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption will be presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. There was no change to redemption value at June 30, 2023 since the incurred taxes exceed the interest earned inception to date. The dissolution expense of $100,000 is not included in the redemption value of the shares subject to redemption since it is only taken into account in the event of the Company’s liquidation.

Net Loss Per Common Share

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The Company had not considered the effect of the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 5,500,000 of our Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since their exercise is contingent upon future events. As a result, diluted net loss per common stock is the same as basic net loss per common stock.

Warrants

We account for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment is conducted at the time warrant issuance 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, the 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 of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. We account for our outstanding warrants as equity-classified instruments.

Recent Accounting Standards

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

Inflation

We do not believe that inflation had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the period presented.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (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, 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 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 a 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. We have 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, we, 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 our 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not a party to any material legal proceedings and no material legal proceedings have been threatened by us or, to the best of our knowledge, against us.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this item. A description of risk factors can be found in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on August 14, 2023 and is located through the SEC EDGAR system and on the company website https://tgventureacquisition.com. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website does not constitute a part of this report. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no material changes from the disclosure provided in the Form 10-K/A.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

We did not sell any equity securities during the period covered by this Report.

Use of Proceeds

On November 5, 2021, we consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (the “Units”), which included 1,500,000 Units upon a full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one redeemable warrant of the Company (each warrant, a “Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $115,000,000. The IPO was registered on Form S-1 (File No. 333-258773), which was declared effective on November 2, 2021.

The Private Placement generated gross proceeds to the Company of $5,500,000.

A total of $117,300,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

While the Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the cash held outside of the Trust Account, substantially all of the net proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, which are placed in the Trust Account, are intended to be applied generally toward completing a Business Combination.

Substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), will probably be used to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
