Explanation of Responses:

1. As described in the issuer's registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-249284) under the heading "Description of Securities--Founder Shares", the Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the issuer at the time of the issuer's initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and certain anti-dilution rights and have no expiration date.

2. The Class B ordinary shares reported herein include up to 468,750 shares that are subject to forfeiture to the extent the underwriters of the initial public offering of the issuer's securities do not exercise in full their over-allotment option, as described in the issuer's registration statement.

3. The securities reported herein are held by BCLS Acquisition Holdings, LP (the "Sponsor"). The Sponsor is controlled by its general partner, BCLS Acquisition Holdings (GP), LLC (the "General Partner"), which is governed by a board of managers consisting of three managers. Each manager has one vote, and the approval of a majority of the managers is required to approve an action on behalf of the sponsor. Jeffrey Schwartz serves on the board of managers of the General Partner. As a result, Mr. Schwartz may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the shares held by the Sponsor. Mr. Schwartz disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
