Founder Shares

On October 30, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 4,312,500 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.0058 per share. On February 11, 2021, as part of an upsizing of the IPO, the Company effected a stock dividend of 718,750 shares with respect to the common stock, resulting in the initial stockholders holding 5,031,250 shares of common stock. All shares and associated amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the stock dividend. Up to 656,250 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. On February 25, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part, of the 656,250 Founder Shares subject to forfeiture, 31,250 Founder Shares were forfeited and 625,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell their founder shares until the earlier of (i) one year after the date of the consummation of the initial business combination or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s shares of common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 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 after the initial business combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to the initial business combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Due to Related Party

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount due to related party is $257,857 and $227,857 which represents the aggregate accruals of administrative service fee from the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide non-interest-bearing loans to the Company as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the trust account. In the event that a business combination does not close, the Company

may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender. The Units would be identical to the Private Units.

Convertible Promissory Note On February 20, 2022, the Company issued the Convertible Note, through which the Sponsor may make advances to the Company under the Convertible Note up to an aggregate of $350,000. On June 21, 2022, the Convertible Note was amended to increase the maximum principal value to $700,000. On March 23, 2023, the Convertible Note was amended to increase the maximum principal value to $2,000,000.

The principal balance may be prepaid at any time but matures on the date at which the Company consummates its initial business combination. Upon the consummation of its initial business combination, the Sponsor may elect to covert all or a portion of the outstanding principal to a number of units equal to the outstanding balance at conversion divided by $10.00, rounded up to the nearest whole number (“Working Capital Units”). The Working Capital Units have the same terms as the Private Placement. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding advances of $1,100,000 under the Convertible Note.

The Company has elected the fair value option to account for the Convertible Note. The Convertible Note was initially recognized at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized as “Changes in the fair value of convertible note” in the statements of operations. The fair value is based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement (see Note 7).

Administrative Service Fee

Commencing on February 16, 2021, the Company has agreed to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor, a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Company’s business combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company accrued $257,857 and $227,857, respectively, for the administrative service fee.
