• | Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to another entity pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entity, including dMY Technology Group, Inc. VI (“dMY VI”), that is sponsored by an affiliate of our sponsor. The Current Charter provides that dMY IV renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of dMY IV and such opportunity is one dMY IV is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for dMY IV to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to dMY IV without violating another legal obligation. We do not believe, however, that the pre-existing fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers and directors will materially undermine our ability to complete the Business Combination, and such pre-existing fiduciary duties and contractual obligations did not materially affect our search for an acquisition target. |
• | If we are unable to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under the DGCL 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 our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Our initial stockholders purchased the Founder Shares prior to our initial public offering for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Upon the Closing, such Founder Shares will be converted into 8,625,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock, 862,500 of which will be subject to further vesting conditions. Based on the closing price of dMY IV Class A common stock on NYSE of $10.13 on October 29, 2021, such vested shares would be worth $87,371,250. |
• | Simultaneously with the Closing of our initial public offering, we consummated the sale of 5,933,333 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement to our Sponsor. The warrants are each exercisable commencing on the later of 30 days following the Closing and 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, for one share of dMY IV Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. If we do not consummate a Business Combination transaction by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, then the proceeds from the sale of the private placement warrants will be part of the liquidating distribution to the public stockholders and the warrants held by our initial stockholders will be worthless. The warrants held by our initial stockholders had an aggregate market value of $15,011,332 based upon the closing price of $2.53 per warrant on the NYSE on October 29, 2021, with 2,966,667 private placement warrants that are unvested and subject to further vesting conditions. |
• | Our Sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment in us if we do not complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Certain of them may continue to serve as officers and/or directors of New Planet after the Closing. As such, in the future they may receive any cash fees, stock options or stock awards that the New Planet board of directors determines to pay to its directors and/or officers. |
• | Our initial stockholders and our officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if dMY IV fails to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. |
• | In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. |
• | Following the Closing, our Sponsor would be entitled to the repayment of any working capital loan and advances that have been made to dMY IV and remain outstanding. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our Sponsor has not made any advances to us for working capital expenses. If we do not complete an initial Business Combination within the required period, we may use a portion of our working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the working capital loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the working capital loans. |
• | Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will continue to indemnify our existing directors and officers and will maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. |
• | Upon the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, our Sponsor, our officers and directors and their respective affiliates may be entitled to reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket |
• | Upon the completion of the Business Combination, Goldman and Needham & Company, LLC (“ Needham Morgan Stanley |
• | Given the difference in the purchase price our Sponsor paid for the Founder Shares as compared to the price of the units sold in the IPO and the substantial number of shares of dMY IV Class A common stock that our Sponsor will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares in connection with the Business Combination, our Sponsor and its affiliates may earn a positive rate of return on their investment even if the New Planet common stock trades below the price paid for the units in the IPO and the public stockholders experience a negative rate of return following the completion of the Business Combination. |
• | The Sponsor owns 8,550,000 Founder Shares and Darla Anderson, Francesca Luthi and Charles E. Wert each own 25,000 founder shares, initially purchased from the Sponsor for an aggregate price of $25,225 (valued at $248,750 based on the closing price of $9.95 of the dMY IV Class A common stock on October 19, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. |
• | The Sponsor owns 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants (valued at $21,953,332.10, based on a valuation as of June 30, 2021, the most recent date for which a valuation is available), all of which will |
become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. The Sponsor purchased the Private Placement Warrants from dMY IV on March 4, 2021 for $1.50 per warrant, amounting to an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. |
• | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to the public stockholders rather than liquidating dMY IV. |
• | We agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services and such arrangement will terminate upon the Closing. As of October 29, 2021, we have paid our Sponsor a total of $70,000 in connection with this arrangement. |
• | We agreed to repay our Sponsor a total of $37,000 under the promissory note that the Company may be unable to repay if the initial business combination is not completed. |
• | The Sponsor and the initial stockholders will enter into an amended Registration Rights Agreement which will provide them with registration rights. |
Q: |
What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after consummation of the Business Combination? |
A: | A total of $345,000,000, including $338,100,000 of the proceeds from the IPO (which amount includes $12,075,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount) and approximately $6,900,000 of the proceeds of the |
sale of the private placement warrants, was placed in a Trust Account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by Continental, acting as trustee. As of June 30, 2021, there were investments and cash held in the Trust Account of $345,057,911. These funds will not be released until the earlier of Closing or the redemption of our public shares if we are unable to complete an initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, although we may withdraw the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account to pay taxes. |
Q: |
What happens if a substantial number of the public stockholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption right? |
A: | dMY IV Stockholders who vote in favor of the Business Combination may also nevertheless exercise their redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of public stockholders are reduced as a result of redemptions by public stockholders. The consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned upon, among other things, dMY IV having an aggregate cash amount of at least $250,000,000 available at Closing from the Trust Account and PIPE Investors (the “ Minimum Proceeds Condition pro rata |

Q: |
What amendments will be made to the Current Charter? |
A: | We are asking dMY IV Stockholders to approve the Proposed Charter that will be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Proposed Charter provides for various changes that the dMY IV Board believes are necessary to address the needs of the post-Business Combination company, including, among other things: (i) the change of dMY IV’s name to “Planet Labs PBC”; (ii) the increase of the total number of shares of New Planet’s capital stock from 401,000,000 shares to 631,500,000 shares (or 441,500,000 shares in the event that Charter Proposal B does not pass), which would consist of (A) increasing (x) dMY IV Class A common stock from 380,000,00 shares to 570,000,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock (or remaining at 380,000,000 shares in the event Charter Proposal B does not pass), (y) dMY IV Class B common stock from 20,000,000 shares to 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class B common stock (assuming the holders of dMY IV Class B common stock approve such increase) and (z) the preferred stock of dMY IV from 1,000,000 shares to 1,500,000 shares of New Planet preferred stock, and (B) authorizing the creation of 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class C common stock; (iii) the establishment of 20:1 voting rights with respect to shares of New Planet Class B common stock, as described herein and in the Proposed Charter; (iv) providing stockholders, until the Sunset Date, the ability to act by written consent in lieu of a meeting, subject to certain requirements as described herein and in the Proposed Charter; (v) changes to the required vote to amend the charter and bylaws; (vi) that certain transactions are not “corporate opportunities” and that certain persons are not subject the doctrine of corporate opportunity; (vii) the elimination of certain provisions specific to dMY IV’s status as a blank check company; and (viii) provide that New Planet will be a public benefit corporation under Delaware law and identify its public benefit as to accelerate humanity toward a more sustainable, secure and prosperous world by illuminating environmental and social change. |
Q: |
What effect will the Proposed Charter’s multi-class structure have on New Planet’s public stockholders? |
A: | Shares of New Planet Class B common stock will have 20 votes per share, while shares of New Planet Class A common stock will have one vote per share. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Planet Founders will hold all of the issued and outstanding shares of New Planet Class B common stock. Accordingly, upon the consummation of the Business Combination and, assuming no redemptions by our public stockholders, the Planet Founders will hold over approximately 65% of the voting power of New Planet’s capital stock and will be able to control matters submitted to New Planet’s stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, amendments of its organizational documents and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or other major corporate transactions. Additionally, the Planet Founders will receive additional shares of New Planet Class B common stock for any Contingent Consideration issued in respect of their ownership of Planet Class B common stock held immediately prior to the Mergers. The Planet Founders may have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of New Planet, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of New Planet, and might ultimately affect the market price of shares of New Planet Class A common stock. For information about our multi-class structure, see the section titled “ Description of New Planet Securities |
Q: |
What effect will New Planet being a public benefit corporation under Delaware law have on New Planet’s public stockholders? |
A: | Unlike traditional corporations, which have a fiduciary duty to focus exclusively on maximizing stockholder value, as a Delaware public benefit corporation, New Planet’s directors will have a fiduciary duty to consider not only the stockholders’ interests, but also the company’s specific public benefit and the interests |
of other stakeholders affected by New Planet’s actions. Therefore, New Planet may take actions that it believes will be in the best interests of those stakeholders materially affected by its specific benefit purpose, even if those actions do not maximize New Planet’s financial results. While New Planet intends for this public benefit designation and obligation to provide an overall net benefit to New Planet and its stakeholders, it could instead cause New Planet to make decisions and take actions without seeking to maximize the income generated from its business, and hence available for distribution to its stockholders. |
Q: |
What material negative factors did the dMY IV Board consider in connection with the Business Combination? |
A: | Although the dMY IV Board believes that the acquisition of Planet will provide dMY IV’s stockholders with an opportunity to participate in a combined company with significant growth potential, market share and a well-known brand, the board of directors did consider certain potentially material negative factors in arriving at that conclusion, such as the risk that dMY IV Stockholders would not approve the Business Combination and the risk that significant numbers of dMY IV Stockholders would exercise their redemption rights. In addition, during the course of dMY IV management’s evaluation of Planet’s operating business and its public company potential, management conducted detailed due diligence on certain potential challenges. Some factors that both dMY IV management and the board of directors considered were (i) risks associated with successful implementation of Planet’s long term business plan and strategy and Planet realizing the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination on the timeline expected or at all, (ii) the corporate governance provisions of the Proposed Charter and the effect of those provisions on the governance of New Planet, including that the Planet Founders will each hold common stock carrying 20 votes per share, subject to certain transfer restrictions and sunset provisions in the Proposed Charter, (iii) the inherent limitations in the due diligence review of Planet conducted by the dMY IV management team and dMY IV’s outside advisors and that dMY IV did not obtain a fairness opinion from an independent investment banking firm, (iv) the potential inability to complete the Mergers, (v) the possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination, and (vii) that some of our officers and directors may have interests in the Business Combinations as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of Company stockholders and that Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“ Goldman co-placement agent of the PIPE Financing. The Board also weighed the risk around the multi-class structure (with “super-voting” rights for Planet Founders), which already existed at Planet with the long-term benefits that a founder-controlled company would provide to dMY IV Stockholders and future stockholders of Planet after Closing. |
Q: |
Did the Board obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Mergers? |
A: | No. The Board did not obtain a fairness opinion with respect to the consideration to be paid in the Mergers. The officers and directors of dMY IV have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries, including the technology sector, and concluded that their experience and background enabled them to make the necessary analyses and determinations regarding the Business Combination. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of the Board and dMY IV’s advisors in valuing Planet’s business. |
Q: |
Do I have redemption rights? |
A: | If you are a public stockholder, you have the right to request that dMY IV redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash, provided that The Special Meeting — Redemption Rights. pro rata How do I exercise my redemption rights? |
Q: |
How do I exercise my redemption rights? |
A: | If you are a public stockholder and wish to exercise your right to redeem your public shares, you must: |
(i) | (a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and |
(ii) | prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on [ ], 2021, (a) submit a written request to Continental that dMY IV redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to Continental, physically or electronically through DTC. |
Q: |
If I am a holder of units, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my units? |
A: | No. Holders of outstanding units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If you hold your units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must notify your broker or bank that you elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants, or if you hold units registered in your own name, you must contact Continental, dMY IV’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number and address to Continental in order to validly redeem. If you fail to cause your units to be separated and delivered to Continental, dMY IV’s transfer agent, prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on [ ], 2021, you will not be able to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your public shares. |
Q: |
What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights? |
A: | The U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights depend on your particular facts and circumstances. It is possible that you may be treated as selling your public shares for cash and, as a result, recognize capital gain or capital loss. It is also possible that the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of public shares that you own or |
are deemed to own (including through the ownership of public warrants). For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “ Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations. |
Q: |
What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers? |
A: | The Mergers, taken together, are intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In connection with the filing of this registration statement, Planet is receiving an opinion of counsel, based on customary assumptions and certain representations, warranties and covenants of Planet, dMY IV and First Merger Sub, to the effect that the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization.” It is not, however, a condition to the completion of the Mergers that either Planet or dMY IV receives an opinion of counsel as of the Closing to the effect that the Mergers will so qualify, and the Mergers will occur even if they do not so qualify. No ruling has been, or will be, sought by Planet or dMY IV from the IRS with respect to the Mergers and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the qualification of the Mergers, taken together, as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. |
Q: |
How do the public warrants differ from the private placement warrants and what are the related risks for any public warrant holders post business combination? |
Q: |
What is Planet? |
A: | Planet, a Delaware corporation headquartered in San Francisco, California, is a provider of daily data and insights about Earth and aims to use space to help life on Earth. Planet is driven by a mission to image the world every day, and make change visible, accessible and actionable. Founded in 2010 by three NASA scientists, Planet designs, builds, and operates the largest earth observation fleet of imaging satellites. Planet provides data and analytics solutions to over 700 customers across a variety of industries including, agriculture, forestry, defense and intelligence, finance and civil government (among others), enabling users to simply and effectively derive unique value from satellite imagery. |
Q: |
How does the dMY IV Board recommend that I vote? |
A: | The dMY IV Board recommends that the dMY IV Stockholders vote “ FOR FOR FOR |
Proposal B, “ FOR FOR FOR FOR FOR The Business Combination Proposal — Recommendation of the dMY IV Board and Reasons for the Business Combination |
Q: |
What will happen to my dMY IV Common Stock as a result of the Business Combination? |
A: | If the Business Combination is completed, (i) each share of dMY IV’s Class A common stock will remain outstanding and continue as a share of New Planet Class A common stock, and (ii) each share of dMY IV’s Class B common stock will automatically become a share of New Planet Class A common stock. See the section entitled “ The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration |
Q: |
How does our Sponsor and the other initial stockholders intend to vote their shares? |
A: | In connection with our initial public offering, our initial stockholders, the Sponsor, and our officers and directors at the time of our initial public offering entered into a letter agreement to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and we also expect them to vote their shares in favor of all other proposals being presented at the Special Meeting. In addition, the Sponsor and certain other beneficial owners of dMY IV’s Class B common stock have entered into a support agreement with Planet, pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination (and each of the other proposals to be brought at the Special Meeting). These stockholders, together with our initial stockholders, collectively own approximately 20% of our issued and outstanding shares of dMY IV Common Stock. Accordingly, if all of our outstanding shares were to be voted, we would need the affirmative vote of approximately 30.1% of the remaining shares to approve the Business Combination. If the shares held by the minimum number of stockholders necessary for a quorum for the Special Meeting were to be voted, we would need the additional affirmative vote of shares representing approximately 5% of the outstanding shares in order to approve the Business Combination. |
Q: |
May our Sponsor and the other initial stockholders purchase public shares or warrants prior to the Special Meeting? |
A: | At any time prior to the Special Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding dMY IV or its securities, the initial stockholders, Planet and/or its affiliates may purchase shares and/or warrants from investors, or they may enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares or vote their public shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood that (i) the proposals presented for approval at the Special Meeting are approved and/or (ii) dMY IV satisfies the Minimum Proceeds Condition. Any such stock purchases and other transactions may thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining dMY IV Stockholder Approval. This may result in the completion of our Business Combination in a way that may not otherwise have been possible. While the exact nature of any such incentives has not been determined as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, they might include, without limitation, arrangements to protect such investors or holders against potential loss in value of their shares, including the granting of put options and the transfer to such investors or holders of shares or rights owned by the initial stockholders for nominal value. |
Q: |
Who is entitled to vote at the Special Meeting? |
A: | The dMY IV Board has fixed October 19, 2021 as the record date for the Special Meeting. All holders of record of dMY IV Common Stock as of the close of business on the record date are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting, provided that Questions and Answers About the Business Combination and the Special Meeting — How can I vote my shares without attending the Special Meeting? |
Q: |
How many votes do I have? |
A: | Each dMY IV Stockholder of record is entitled to one vote for each dMY IV Share held by such holder as of the close of business on the record date. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 43,125,000 outstanding shares of dMY IV Common Stock. |

In addition, Goldman, as dMY IV’s underwriter in its initial public offering, is acting as Planet’s financial advisor and co-placement agent of the PIPE Financing.

• | None of our officers and directors is required to commit their full time to our affairs and, accordingly, they may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time among various business activities. |
• | Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to another entity pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entity, including dMY Technology Group, Inc. VI (“dMY VI”), that is sponsored by an affiliate of our sponsor. The Current Charter provides that dMY IV renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of dMY IV and such opportunity is one dMY IV is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for dMY IV to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to dMY IV without violating another legal obligation. We do not believe, however, that the pre-existing fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers and directors will materially undermine our ability to complete the Business Combination, and such pre-existing fiduciary duties and contractual obligations did not materially affect our search for an acquisition target. |
• | If we are unable to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under the DGCL 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 our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Our initial stockholders purchased the Founder Shares prior to our initial public offering for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Upon the Closing, such Founder Shares will be converted into 8,625,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock, 862,500 of which will be subject to further vesting conditions. Based on the closing price of dMY IV Class A common stock on NYSE of $10.13 on October 29, 2021, such vested shares would be worth $87,371,250. |
• | Simultaneously with the Closing of our initial public offering, we consummated the sale of 5,933,333 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement to our Sponsor. The warrants are each exercisable commencing on the later of 30 days following the Closing and 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, for one share of dMY IV Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. If we do not consummate a Business Combination transaction by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, then the proceeds from the sale of the private placement warrants will be part of the liquidating distribution to the public stockholders and the warrants held by our initial stockholders will be worthless. The warrants held by our initial stockholders had an aggregate market value of $15,011,332 based upon the closing price of $2.53 per warrant on the NYSE on October 29, 2021, with 2,966,667 private placement warrants that are unvested and subject to further vesting conditions. |
• | Our Sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment in us if we do not complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Certain of them may continue |
to serve as officers and/or directors of New Planet after the Closing. As such, in the future they may receive any cash fees, stock options or stock awards that the New Planet board of directors determines to pay to its directors and/or officers. |
• | Our initial stockholders and our officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if dMY IV fails to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. |
• | In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. |
• | Following the Closing, our Sponsor would be entitled to the repayment of any working capital loan and advances that have been made to dMY IV and remain outstanding. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our Sponsor has not made any advances to us for working capital expenses. If we do not complete an initial Business Combination within the required period, we may use a portion of our working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the working capital loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the working capital loans. |
• | Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will continue to indemnify our existing directors and officers and will maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. |

• | Given the difference in the purchase price our Sponsor paid for the Founder Shares as compared to the price of the units sold in the IPO and the substantial number of shares of dMY IV Class A common stock that our Sponsor will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares in connection with the Business Combination, our Sponsor and its affiliates may earn a positive rate of return on their investment even if the New Planet common stock trades below the price paid for the units in the IPO and the public stockholders experience a negative rate of return following the completion of the Business Combination. |
• | The Sponsor owns 8,550,000 Founder Shares and Darla Anderson, Francesca Luthi and Charles E. Wert each own 25,000 founder shares, initially purchased from the Sponsor for an aggregate price of |
$25,225 (valued at $248,750 based on the closing price of $9.95 of the dMY IV Class A common stock on October 19, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. |
• | The Sponsor owns 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants (valued at $21,953,332.10, based on a valuation as of June 30, 2021, the most recent date for which a valuation is available), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. The Sponsor purchased the Private Placement Warrants from dMY IV on March 4, 2021 for $1.50 per warrant, amounting to an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. |
• | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to the public stockholders rather than liquidating dMY IV. |
• | We agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services and such arrangement will terminate upon the Closing. As of October 29, 2021, we have paid our Sponsor a total of $70,000 in connection with this arrangement. |
• | We agreed to repay our Sponsor a total of $37,000 under the promissory note that the Company may be unable to repay if the initial business combination is not completed. |

• | Planet has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination based on the following predominate factors: |
• | Planet’s existing stockholders will have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity under the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios with over 90% of the voting interest in each scenario; |
• | Planet will have the ability to nominate a majority of the initial members of the Board of Directors of the combined entity; |
• | Planet’s senior management will be the senior management of the combined entity; and |
• | Planet is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and has the larger employee base. |
• | Planet has a limited history of operating at its current scale and under its current strategy, which makes it difficult to predict its future operating results, and it may not achieve its expected operating results in the future. |
• | Planet has a history of operating losses, and Planet anticipates its operating expenses will increase substantially in the foreseeable future. As a result, Planet may not achieve or sustain profitability. |
• | Planet’s daily scan of the Earth is a data set that has not existed before. If the market for Planet’s products and services built upon this data set fails to grow as Planet expects, takes longer than Planet expects to grow or if Planet’s current or prospective customers fail to adopt Planet’s platform, Planet’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | There is increasing competition from commercial entities and governments in Planet’s markets, and if Planet does not compete effectively, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | Planet’s international operations create business and economic risks that could impact its financial results. |
• | Interruption or failure of Planet’s satellite operations, information technology infrastructure or loss of its data storage, whether by cyber-attacks or other adverse events, could hurt Planet’s ability to perform its daily operations effectively and provide its products and services, which could damage its reputation and harm its operating results. |
• | Planet may experience a number of issues, such as delayed launches, launch failures, its satellites may fail to reach their planned orbital locations, its satellites may fail to operate as intended, be destroyed or otherwise become inoperable, the cost of satellite launches may significantly increase and/or satellite launch providers may not have sufficient capacity. Any such issue could result in the loss of Planet’s satellites, cause significant delays in their deployment or make such deployment impossible, which could harm Planet’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. |
• | Planet’s satellites may not be able to capture Earth images due to weather, natural disasters or other external factors, or as a result of Planet’s constellation of satellites having restrained capacity. |
• | If Planet is unable to develop and release product and service enhancements and new products and services to respond to rapid technological change, or to develop new designs and technologies for its satellites, in a timely and cost-effective manner, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | Downturns or volatility in general economic conditions, including as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic or any other outbreak of an infectious disease, could have a material adverse effect on Planet’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. |
• | The loss of one or more of Planet’s key personnel, or its failure to attract, hire, retain and train other highly qualified personnel in the future, could harm Planet’s business, financial condition and results of operations. |
• | Planet’s business is capital intensive and it may not be able to raise adequate capital to finance its business strategies, or Planet may be able to do so only on terms that significantly restrict its ability to operate its business, which raises substantial doubt about Planet’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
• | As of July 31, 2021, Planet had $144.1 million of principal indebtedness outstanding. Planet’s indebtedness could adversely affect its financial condition, its ability to raise additional capital to fund its operations, its ability to operate its business, its ability to react to changes in the economy or its industry and its ability to pay its debts and could divert its cash flow from operations for debt payments. |
• | Planet operates in a highly regulated industry and government regulations may adversely affect its ability to sell its services, may increase the expense of such services or otherwise limit Planet’s ability to operate or grow its business. Further, Planet’s failure to comply with governmental laws and regulations could harm its business. |
• | If New Planet fails to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level, New Planet may not be able to accurately report New Planet’s financial results, which could have a material adverse effect on New Planet’s operations, investor confidence in New Planet’s business and the trading prices of New Planet’s securities. |
• | The multi-class structure of New Planet common stock will have the effect of concentrating voting power with New Planet’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Founder, which will limit an investor’s ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control. |
• | As a public benefit corporation, New Planet’s focus on a specific public benefit purpose and producing a positive effect for society may negatively impact its financial performance. |
• | Our stockholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of New Planet Class A common stock as consideration in the Business Combination. Having a minority share position may reduce the influence that our current stockholders have on the management of New Planet. |
• | There are risks to our public stockholders who are not affiliates of the Sponsor of becoming stockholders of New Planet through the Business Combination rather than through an underwritten public offering, including no independent due diligence review by an underwriter. |

• | Planet has a limited history of operating at its current scale and under its current strategy, which makes it difficult to predict its future operating results, and it may not achieve its expected operating results in the future. |
• | Planet has a history of operating losses, and Planet anticipates its operating expenses will increase substantially in the foreseeable future. As a result, Planet may not achieve or sustain profitability. |
• | Planet’s daily scan of the Earth is a data set that has not existed before. If the market for Planet’s products and services built upon this data set fails to grow as Planet expects, takes longer than Planet expects to grow or if its current customers or prospective customers fail to adopt Planet’s platform, Planet’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | There is increasing competition from commercial entities and governments in Planet’s markets, and if Planet does not compete effectively, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | Planet’s international operations create business and economic risks that could impact its financial results. |
• | Interruption or failure of Planet’s satellite operations, information technology infrastructure or loss of its data storage, whether by cyber-attacks or other adverse events, could hurt Planet’s ability to perform its daily operations effectively and provide its products and services, which could damage its reputation and harm its operating results. |
• | Planet may experience a number of issues, such as delayed launches, launch failures, its satellites may fail to reach their planned orbital locations, its satellites may fail to operate as intended, be destroyed or otherwise become inoperable, the cost of satellite launches may significantly increase and/or satellite launch providers may not have sufficient capacity. Any such issue could result in the loss of Planet’s satellites, cause significant delays in their deployment or make such deployment impossible, which could harm Planet’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. |
• | Planet’s satellites may not be able to capture Earth images due to weather, natural disasters or other external factors, or as a result of Planet’s constellation of satellites having restrained capacity. |
• | If Planet is unable to develop and release product and service enhancements and new products and services to respond to rapid technological change, or to develop new designs and technologies for its satellites, in a timely and cost-effective manner, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. |
• | Downturns or volatility in general economic conditions, including as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic or any other outbreak of an infectious disease, could have a material adverse effect on Planet’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. |
• | The loss of one or more of Planet’s key personnel, or its failure to attract, hire, retain and train other highly qualified personnel in the future, could harm Planet’s business, financial condition and results of operations. |
• | Planet’s business is capital intensive and it may not be able to raise adequate capital to finance its business strategies, or Planet may be able to do so only on terms that significantly restrict its ability to operate its business, which raises substantial doubt about Planet’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
• | As of July 31, 2021, Planet had $144.1 million of principal indebtedness outstanding. Planet’s indebtedness could adversely affect its financial condition, its ability to raise additional capital to fund its operations, its ability to operate its business, its ability to react to changes in the economy or its industry and its ability to pay its debts and could divert its cash flow from operations for debt payments. |
• | Planet operates in a highly regulated industry and government regulations may adversely affect its ability to sell its services, may increase the expense of such services or otherwise limit Planet’s ability to operate or grow its business. Further, Planet’s failure to comply with governmental laws and regulations could harm its business. |
• | If New Planet fails to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level, New Planet may not be able to accurately report New Planet’s financial results, which could have a material adverse effect on New Planet’s operations, investor confidence in New Planet’s business and the trading prices of New Planet’s securities. |
• | The multi-class structure of New Planet common stock will have the effect of concentrating voting power with New Planet’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Founder, which will limit an investor’s ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control. |
• | As a public benefit corporation, New Planet’s focus on a specific public benefit purpose and producing a positive effect for society may negatively impact its financial performance. |
• | Our stockholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of New Planet Class A common stock as consideration in the Business Combination. Having a minority share position may reduce the influence that our current stockholders have on the management of New Planet. |
• | There are risks to our public stockholders who are not affiliates of the Sponsor of becoming stockholders of New Planet through the Business Combination rather than through an underwritten public offering, including no independent due diligence review by an underwriter. |
• | If we are unable to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under the DGCL 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 our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Our initial stockholders purchased the Founder Shares prior to our initial public offering for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Upon the Closing, such Founder Shares will be converted into 8,625,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock, 862,500 of which will be subject to further vesting conditions. Based on the closing price of dMY IV Class A common stock on NYSE of $10.13 on October 29, 2021, such vested shares would be worth $87,371,250. |
• | Simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering, we consummated the sale of 5,933,333 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement to our Sponsor. The warrants are each exercisable commencing on the later of 30 days following the Closing and 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, for one share of dMY IV Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. If we do not consummate a Business Combination transaction by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, then the proceeds from the sale of the private placement warrants will be part of the liquidating distribution to the public stockholders and the warrants held by our initial stockholders will be worthless. The warrants held by our initial stockholders had an aggregate market value of $15,011,332 based upon the closing price of $2.53 per warrant on the NYSE on October 29, 2021, with 2,966,667 private placement warrants that are unvested and subject to further vesting conditions. |
• | Our Sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment in us if we do not complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Certain of them may continue |
to serve as officers and/or directors of New Planet after the Closing. As such, in the future they may receive any cash fees, stock options or stock awards that the New Planet board of directors determines to pay to its directors and/or officers. |
• | Our initial stockholders and our officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if dMY IV fails to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. |
• | In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. |
• | Following the Closing, our Sponsor would be entitled to the repayment of any working capital loan and advances that have been made to dMY IV and remain outstanding. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our Sponsor has not made any advances to us for working capital expenses. If we do not complete an initial business combination within the required period, we may use a portion of our working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the working capital loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the working capital loans. |
• | Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will continue to indemnify our existing directors and officers and will maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. |
• | Upon the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, our Sponsor, our officers and directors and their respective affiliates may be entitled to reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket |
• | Upon the completion of the Business Combination, Goldman and Needham, who acted as dMY IV’s underwriters in the IPO, will be entitled to an aggregate deferred underwriting commission of $12,075,000. Additionally, Goldman, Morgan Stanley and Needham will receive, in the aggregate, $21,930,000 in fees in connection with certain financial advisory services provided to Planet and dMY IV. Lastly, Morgan Stanley and Goldman will also be entitled to receive approximately $7,000,000 in placement agent fees in connection with the PIPE Investment. If we were to fail to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, none of Goldman, Needham or Morgan Stanley would receive their expected compensation for their collective roles as underwriters, financial advisors and placement agents. |
• | Given the difference in the purchase price our Sponsor paid for the Founder Shares as compared to the price of the units sold in the IPO and the substantial number of shares of dMY IV Class A common stock that our Sponsor will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares in connection with the Business Combination, our Sponsor and its affiliates may earn a positive rate of return on their investment even if the New Planet common stock trades below the price paid for the units in the IPO and the public stockholders experience a negative rate of return following the completion of the Business Combination. |
• | The Sponsor owns 8,550,000 Founder Shares and Darla Anderson, Francesca Luthi and Charles E. Wert each own 25,000 Founder Shares, initially purchased from the Sponsor for an aggregate price of $25,225 (valued at $248,750 based on the closing price of $9.95 of the dMY IV Class A common stock on |
October 19, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. |
• | The Sponsor owns 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants (valued at $21,953,332.10, based on a valuation as of June 30, 2021, the most recent date for which a valuation is available), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. The Sponsor purchased the Private Placement Warrants from dMY IV on March 4, 2021 for $1.50 per warrant, amounting to an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. |
• | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to the public stockholders rather than liquidating dMY IV. |
• | We agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services and such arrangement will terminate upon the Closing. As of October 29, 2021, we have paid our Sponsor a total of $70,000 in connection with this arrangement. |
• | We agreed to repay our Sponsor a total of $37,000 under the promissory note that the Company may be unable to repay if the initial business combination is not completed. |
• | The Sponsor and the initial stockholders will enter into an amended Registration Rights Agreement which will provide them with registration rights. |
• | its employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles, which might adversely affect Planet’s ability to retain and hire key personnel and other employees; |
• | customers, suppliers, business partners and other parties with which Planet maintains business relationships may experience uncertainty about its future and seek alternative relationships with third parties, seek to alter their business relationships with Planet or fail to extend an existing relationship with New Planet; and |
• | Planet has expended and will continue to expend significant costs, fees and expenses for professional services and transaction costs in connection with the proposed Business Combination. |
• | actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us; |
• | changes in the market’s expectations about New Planet’s operating results; |
• | success of competitors; |
• | operating results failing to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors in a particular period; |
• | changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning New Planet or the industry in which New Planet operates in general; |
• | operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to New Planet; |
• | ability to market new and enhanced products and services on a timely basis; |
• | changes in laws and regulations affecting our business; |
• | commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving New Planet; |
• | changes in New Planet’s capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt; |
• | the volume of shares of New Planet Class A common stock available for public sale; |
• | any major change in New Planet’s board or management; |
• | sales of substantial amounts of New Planet Class A common stock by our or New Planet’s directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and |
• | general economic and political conditions such as recessions, changes in interest rates, changes in fuel prices, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism. |
• | a limited availability of market quotations for our securities; |
• | reduced liquidity for our securities; |
• | a determination that New Planet Class A common stock is a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in New Planet Class A common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for New Planet Class A common stock; |
• | a limited amount of analyst coverage; and |
• | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. |
• | the parties may be liable for damages to one another under the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement; |
• | negative reactions from the financial markets, including declines in the price of our Class A common stock due to the fact that current prices may reflect a market assumption that the Business Combination will be completed; and |
• | the attention of our management will have been diverted to the Business Combination rather than the pursuit of other opportunities in respect of an initial business combination. |
• | the ability of New Planet’s board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock; |
• | the fact that New Planet will be a public benefit corporation, as discussed below; |
• | certain limitations on convening special stockholder meetings; |
• | advance notice for nominations of directors by stockholders and for stockholders to include matters to be considered at New Planet’s annual meetings; and |
• | a multi-class common stock structure with 20 votes per share of New Planet Class B common stock, the result of which is that upon the Business Combination, the Planet Founders will have the ability to control the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval, even though Planet Founders will own less than a majority of the outstanding shares of New Planet’s capital stock. |
• | we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation may indemnify such person if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful; |
• | we may, in our discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is permitted by applicable law; |
• | we are required to advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and officers in connection with defending a proceeding, except that such directors or officers will undertake to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification; |
• | the rights conferred in the Proposed Bylaws are not exclusive, and we are authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors, officers, employees and agents and to obtain insurance to indemnify such persons; and |
• | we may not retroactively amend the provisions in the Proposed Bylaws to reduce our indemnification obligations to directors, officers, employees, and agents. |
• | the size and diversity of our customer bases; |
• | the timing and market acceptance of products and services, including the developments and enhancements to those products and services, offered by us or our competitors; |

• | fluctuations in currency exchange rates; |
• | higher levels of credit risk and payment fraud; |
• | enhanced difficulties of integrating any foreign acquisitions; |
• | burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws; |
• | reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; |
• | difficulties in staffing and managing global operations and the increased travel, infrastructure and legal compliance costs associated with multiple international locations and subsidiaries; |
• | different regulations and practices with respect to employee/employer relationships, existence of workers’ councils and labor unions, and other challenges caused by distance, language, and cultural differences, making it harder to do business in certain international jurisdictions; |
• | compliance with statutory equity requirements; and |
• | management of tax consequences. |
• | impairing our ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest or principal, including periodic principal payments; |
• | increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
• | requiring the dedication of a portion of our cash flow from operations to service our debt, thereby reducing the amount of our cash flow available for other purposes, including capital expenditures, dividends to stockholders or to pursue future business opportunities; |
• | requiring us to sell debt or equity securities or to sell some of our core assets, possibly on unfavorable terms, to meet payment obligations; |
• | limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industries in which we compete; and |
• | placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage with less leveraged competitors and competitors that may have better access to capital resources. |
• | the impact of an economic downturn or market volatility, including the current downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, on our business and the businesses of our customers, prospective customers and partners; |

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and that does not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net loss, as determined in accordance with GAAP. |
(3) | Adjusted EBITDA less Capital Expenditures is a supplemental measure that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and that does not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net loss or cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, investors should be aware that Adjusted EBITDA is calculated on an accruals basis and is not adjusted for changes to cash caused by working capital adjustments and deferred revenue, while Capital Expenditures are calculated on a cash basis. |
• | None of our officers and directors is required to commit their full time to our affairs and, accordingly, they may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time among various business activities. |
• | Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to another entity pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entity, including dMY VI that is sponsored by an affiliate of our sponsor. The Current Charter provides that dMY IV renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of dMY IV and such opportunity is one dMY IV is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for dMY IV to pursue, and to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to dMY IV without violating another legal obligation. We do not believe, however, that the pre-existing fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers and directors will materially undermine our ability to complete the Business Combination, and such pre-existing fiduciary duties and contractual obligations did not materially affect our search for an acquisition target. |
• | If we are unable to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under the DGCL 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 our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Our initial stockholders purchased the Founder Shares prior to our initial public offering for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Upon the Closing, such Founder Shares will be converted into 8,625,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock, 862,500 of which will be subject to further vesting conditions. Based on the closing price of dMY IV Class A common stock on NYSE of $10.13 on October 29, 2021, such vested shares would be worth $87,371,250. |
• | Simultaneously with the Closing of our initial public offering, we consummated the sale of 5,933,333 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement to our Sponsor. The warrants are each exercisable commencing on the later of 30 days following the Closing and 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, for one share of dMY IV Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. If we do not consummate a Business Combination transaction by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, then the proceeds from the sale of the private placement warrants will be part of the liquidating distribution to the public stockholders and the warrants held by our initial stockholders will be worthless. The warrants held by our initial stockholders had an aggregate market value of $15,011,332 based upon the closing price of $2.53 |
per warrant on the NYSE on October 29, 2021, with 2,966,667 private placement warrants that are unvested and subject to further vesting conditions. |
• | Our Sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment in us if we do not complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. Certain of them may continue to serve as officers and/or directors of New Planet after the Closing. As such, in the future they may receive any cash fees, stock options or stock awards that the New Planet board of directors determines to pay to its directors and/or officers. |
• | Our initial stockholders and our officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if dMY IV fails to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period. |
• | In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. |
• | Following the Closing, our Sponsor would be entitled to the repayment of any working capital loan and advances that have been made to dMY IV and remain outstanding. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, our Sponsor has not made any advances to us for working capital expenses. If we do not complete an initial Business Combination within the required period, we may use a portion of our working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the working capital loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the working capital loans. |
• | Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will continue to indemnify our existing directors and officers and will maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. |
• | Upon the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, our Sponsor, our officers and directors and their respective affiliates may be entitled to reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket |
• | Upon the completion of the Business Combination, Goldman and Needham, who acted as dMY IV’s underwriters in the IPO, will be entitled to an aggregate deferred underwriting commission of $12,075,000. Additionally, Goldman, Morgan Stanley and Needham will receive, in the aggregate, $21,930,000 in fees in connection with certain financial advisory services provided to Planet and dMY IV. Lastly, Morgan Stanley and Goldman will also be entitled to receive approximately $7,000,000 in placement agent fees in connection with the PIPE Investment. If we were to fail to complete a business combination by March 9, 2023 or during any Extension Period, none of Goldman, Needham or Morgan Stanley would receive their expected compensation for their collective roles as underwriters, financial advisors and placement agents. |
• | Given the difference in the purchase price our Sponsor paid for the Founder Shares as compared to the price of the units sold in the IPO and the substantial number of shares of dMY IV Class A common stock that our Sponsor will receive upon conversion of the Founder Shares in connection with the Business Combination, our Sponsor and its affiliates may earn a positive rate of return on their investment even if the New Planet common stock trades below the price paid for the units in the IPO and the public stockholders experience a negative rate of return following the completion of the Business Combination. |
• | The Sponsor owns 8,550,000 Founder Shares and Darla Anderson, Francesca Luthi and Charles E. Wert each own 25,000 Founder Shares, initially purchased from the Sponsor for an aggregate price of $25,225 (valued at $248,750 based on the closing price of $9.95 of the dMY IV Class A common stock on the record date for the Special Meeting), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. |
• | The Sponsor owns 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants (valued at $21,953,332.10, based on a valuation as of June 30, 2021, the most recent date for which a valuation is available), all of which will become worthless if an initial business combination is not completed by March 9, 2023. The Sponsor purchased the Private Placement Warrants from dMY IV on March 4, 2021 for $1.50 per warrant, amounting to an aggregate purchase price of $8,900,000. |
• | The Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms less favorable to the public stockholders rather than liquidating dMY IV. |
• | We agreed to pay our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services and such arrangement will terminate upon the Closing. As of October 29, 2021, we have paid our Sponsor a total of $70,000 in connection with this arrangement. |
• | We agreed to repay our Sponsor a total of $37,000 under the promissory note that the Company may be unable to repay if the initial business combination is not completed. |
• | The Sponsor and the initial stockholders will enter into an amended Registration Rights Agreement which will provide them with registration rights. |

• | Planet has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination based on the following predominate factors: |
• | Planet’s existing stockholders will have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity under the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios with over 90% of the voting interest in each scenario; |
• | Planet will have the ability to nominate a majority of the initial members of the Board of Directors of the combined entity; |
• | Planet’s senior management will be the senior management of the combined entity; and |
• | Planet is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and has the larger employee base. |
• | Increase the total number of shares of New Planet’s capital stock from 401,000,000 shares to 631,500,000 shares (or 441,500,000 shares in the event that Charter Proposal B does not pass), which would consist of (A) increasing (i) dMY IV Class A common stock from 380,000,00 shares to 570,000,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock (or remaining at 380,000,000 shares in the event that Charter Proposal B does not pass), (ii) dMY IV Class B common stock from 20,000,000 shares to 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class B common stock (assuming the holders of dMY IV Class B common stock approve such increase) and (iii) the preferred stock of dMY IV from 1,000,000 shares to 1,500,000 shares of New Planet preferred stock, and (B) authorizing the creation of 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class C common stock; |
• | Provide that holders of New Planet Class A common stock will be entitled to one vote per share of New Planet Class A common stock and holders of New Planet Class B common stock will (i) prior to the Sunset Date, be entitled to cast twenty votes per share and (ii) from and after the Sunset Date, at which time each share of New Planet Class B common stock will automatically convert into one share of New Planet Class A common stock, be entitled to cast one vote per share; |
• | Provide that, until the Sunset Date, any actions required to be taken or permitted to be taken by the New Planet Stockholders may be taken by written consent signed by the stockholders of New Planet having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize such action at a meeting; after the Sunset Date, any actions required to be taken or permitted to be by the New Planet Stockholders must be effected by a duly called annual or special meeting of such stockholders and may not be taken by written consent of the New Planet Stockholders, except, any actions required to be taken or permitted to be taken by the holders of New Planet preferred stock may be taken by written consent to the extent expressly provided in the applicable certificate of designation relating to such series of New Planet preferred stock; |
• | Provide that in addition to any vote required by applicable law, certain provisions in the Proposed Charter relating to (i) amendments to certain provisions of the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws, (ii) voting rights, (iii) the New Planet Board, (iv) competition and corporate opportunities, (v) New Planet’s public benefit purpose, (vi) the powers, privileges, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of New Planet common stock and New Planet preferred stock, (vii) Section 203 of the DGCL, (viii) indemnification and (ix) forum selection may only be amended, subject to certain exceptions, by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of New Planet entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class; |
• | Provide that New Planet will not be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and, instead, include a provision in the Proposed Charter that is substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL; provided that the restrictions on business combinations under Section 203 of the DGCL will continue to apply for twelve months following the date that the Proposed Charter is filed; |
• | Provide that with respect to corporate opportunities, that the Proposed Charter will provide that each “Identified Person” is not subject to the doctrine of corporate opportunity and does not have any fiduciary duty to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as New Planet or any of its subsidiaries, except where a corporate opportunity is offered to a non-employee member of the New Planet Board expressly and solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of New Planet; |
• | Provide that New Planet will be a public benefit corporation under Delaware law and identify its public benefit as to accelerate humanity toward a more sustainable, secure and prosperous world by illuminating environmental and social change; |
• | Change the corporate name from “dMY Technology Group, Inc. IV” to “Planet Labs PBC”; and |
• | Remove certain provisions related to dMY IV’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon the consummation of the Mergers. |
• | Charter Proposal A. |
• | Charter Proposal B. |
• | The principal purpose of this proposal is to provide for an authorized capital structure of New Planet that will enable it to continue as an operating company governed by the DGCL. The dMY IV Board believes that it is important to have available for issuance a number of authorized shares of New Planet common stock and New Planet preferred stock sufficient to support its growth and to provide flexibility for future corporate needs. The amendment also provides for the increase necessary to consummate the Mergers and also provides flexibility for future issuances of New Planet common stock if determined by the New Planet Board to be in the best interests of New Planet without incurring the risk, delay and potential expense incident to obtaining stockholder approval for a particular issuance. |
• | Because, upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Planet Founders will be the sole beneficial owner of shares of New Planet Class B common stock, this multi-class stock structure |
provides the Planet Founders with the ability to influence the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval. New Planet’s success rests on the ability to undertake a long-term view and the Planet Founders’ significant interest will enhance New Planet’s ability to focus on long-term value creation and help insulate New Planet from short-term outside influences. The Planet Founders’ voting power also provides New Planet with flexibility to employ various financing and transaction strategies involving the issuance of equity securities, while maintaining the Planet Founders’ control. |
• | Prohibiting stockholders from taking action by written consent can limit unwarranted attempts to gain control by restricting stockholders from approving proposals unless such proposals are properly presented at a stockholder meeting called and held in accordance with the Proposed Charter and the Proposed Bylaws. |
• | Eliminating the right of New Planet Stockholders, after the Sunset Date, to act by written consent limits the circumstances under which stockholders can act on their own initiative to remove directors or alter or amend New Planet’s organizational documents outside of a duly called special or annual meeting of the stockholders of New Planet. Further, the dMY IV Board believes that limiting New Planet Stockholders’ ability to act by written consent will reduce the time and effort the New Planet Board and New Planet Management would need to devote to New Planet stockholder proposals, which time and effort could distract those directors and management from other important company business. |
• | In addition, the elimination of New Planet Stockholders’ ability (after the Sunset Date) to act by written consent may have certain anti-takeover effects by forcing a potential acquiror to take control of the New Planet Board only at a duly called special or annual meeting. However, this proposal is not in response to any effort of which dMY is aware to obtain control of Planet, and dMY and its management do not presently intend to propose other anti-takeover measures in future proxy solicitations. Further, the dMY IV Board does not believe that the effects of the elimination of the ability of New Planet Stockholders to act by written consent (after the Sunset Date) will create a significant impediment to a tender offer or other effort to take control of New Planet. Inclusion of these provisions in the Proposed Charter might also increase the likelihood that a potential acquiror would negotiate the terms of any proposed transaction with the dMY IV Board and thereby help protect New Planet Stockholders from the use of abusive and coercive takeover tactics. |
• | This provision prevents the arbitrary amendment of key provisions of the Proposed Charter and prevents a simple majority of New Planet Stockholders from taking actions that may be harmful to other New Planet Stockholders or making changes to provisions that are intended to protect all New Planet Stockholders. |
• | The dMY IV Board intends to shield stockholders from the coerciveness of front-end loaded two-tier offers by preventing the offeror from effecting the second step of the offer unless the New Planet Board approves such transaction. |
• | New Planet will not be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law. Section 203 is a default provision of the DGCL that prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with “interested stockholders” (a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock) for three years following the date that a person becomes an “interested stockholder”, unless: (i) before such stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” the board of directors approves the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder |
becoming an interested stockholder; (ii) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at the time of the transaction (excluding stock owned by certain persons); or (iii) at the time or after the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the board of directors and the holders of at least two-thirds of the disinterested outstanding voting stock of the corporation approves the transaction. While Section 203 is the default provision under the DGCL, the DGCL allows companies to opt out of Section 203 of the DGCL by including a provision in their certificate of incorporation expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL. In accordance with Section 203, New Planet’s election to opt out of Section 203 will take effect twelve months following the date the Proposed Charter is filed and, during this twelve-month waiting period, the restrictions on business combinations described above will continue to apply. |
• | The dMY IV Board has elected to opt out of Section 203, but the dMY IV Board believes that it is in the best interests of New Planet Stockholders to have protections similar to those afforded by Section 203. These provisions will encourage any potential acquiror to negotiate with the dMY IV Board and therefore provide an opportunity to possibly obtain a higher purchase price than would otherwise be offered in connection with a proposed acquisition of New Planet. Such provisions may make it more difficult for an acquirer to consummate certain types of unfriendly or hostile corporate takeovers or other transactions involving New Planet that have not been approved by the dMY IV Board. The dMY IV Board believes that while such provisions will provide some measure of protection against an interested stockholder that is proposing a two-tiered transaction structure that is unduly coercive, it would not ultimately prevent a potential takeover that enjoys the support of New Planet Stockholders and will also help to prevent a third party from acquiring “creeping control” of New Planet without paying a fair premium to all New Planet Stockholders. |
• | The Proposed Charter includes provisions that renounce New Planet’s interest or expectancy in certain transactions that might otherwise be considered “corporate opportunities” and further provides that that the Sponsor, its affiliates and non-employee members of the New Planet Board are not subject to the doctrine of corporate opportunity and do not have any fiduciary duty to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as New Planet or any of its subsidiaries, except where a corporate opportunity is offered to a non-employee member of the New Planet Board expressly and solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of New Planet. The dMY IV Board believes that this provision is appropriate because such persons should not be restricted from investing in or operating similar businesses and such parties would be unwilling or unable to enter into the Mergers without such assurances due to their activities as investors in a wide range of companies. |
• | The purpose of the new public entity reflects its designation as a public benefit corporation under Delaware law. |
• | The dMY IV Board believes that changing the post-business combination corporate name from “dMY Technology Group, Inc. IV” to “Planet Labs PBC” is desirable to reflect the Mergers and to clearly identify New Planet as the publicly traded entity. |
• | The elimination of certain provisions related to dMY IV’s status as a blank check company is desirable because these provisions will serve no purpose following consummation of the Mergers. For example, |
the Proposed Charter allows New Planet to continue as a corporate entity with perpetual existence following consummation of the Mergers. Perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for public corporations, and the dMY IV Board believes it is the most appropriate period for New Planet following consummation of the Mergers. In addition, certain other provisions in the Current Charter require that proceeds from the IPO be held in the Trust Account until a business combination or liquidation of dMY IV has occurred. These provisions cease to apply once the Mergers are consummated and are therefore not included in the Current Charter. |
• | Under the Proposed Charter, New Planet will be authorized to issue 631,500,000 shares of capital stock (or 441,500,000 shares in the event that Charter Proposal B does not pass), consisting of (i) 570,000,000 shares of New Planet Class A common stock (or 380,000,000 shares in the event that Charter Proposal B does not pass), par value $0.0001 per share, (ii) 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (assuming the holders of dMY IV Class B common stock approve such increase), (iii) 30,000,000 shares of New Planet Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and (iv) 1,500,000 shares of New Planet preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share |
• | The principal purpose of this proposal is to provide for an authorized capital structure of New Planet that will enable it to continue as an operating company governed by the DGCL. The dMY IV Board believes that it is important to have available for issuance a number of authorized shares of New Planet common stock and New Planet preferred stock sufficient to support our growth and to provide flexibility for future corporate needs. The amendment also provides for the increase necessary to consummate the Mergers and also provides flexibility for future issuances of New Planet common stock if determined by the New Planet Board to be in the best interests of New Planet without incurring the risk, delay and potential expense incident to obtaining stockholder approval for a particular issuance. |
• | Under the Proposed Charter, holders of shares of New Planet Class A common stock will be entitled to cast one vote per share of New Planet Class A common stock and holders of shares of New Planet Class B common stock will be entitled (prior to Sunset Date, as defined below) to cast 20 votes per share of New Planet Class B common stock on each matter properly submitted to New Planet’s stockholders entitled to vote (on the Sunset Date, each share of New Planet’s Class B common stock will automatically convert into one share of New Planet Class A common stock and will then be entitled to cast one vote per share). |
• | Because, upon consummation of the business combination, the Planet Founders will be the sole beneficial owner of shares of New Planet Class B common stock, this multi-class stock structure provides the Planet Founders with the ability to influence the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval. We believe that New Planet’s success rests on the ability to undertake a long-term view and the Planet Founders’ significant interest will enhance New Planet’s ability to focus on long-term value creation and help insulate New Planet from short-term outside influences. The Planet Founders’ voting power also provides New Planet with flexibility to employ various financing and transaction strategies involving the issuance of equity securities, while maintaining the Planet Founders’ control. |
• | Under the Proposed Charter, until the Sunset Date (as defined below), any actions required to be taken or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of New Planet may be taken by written consent signed by the stockholders of New Planet having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize such action at a meeting. |
• | Prohibiting stockholders from taking action by written consent can limit unwarranted attempts to gain control by restricting stockholders from approving proposals unless such proposals are properly presented at a stockholder meeting called and held in accordance with the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws. |
• | Eliminating the right of New Planet Stockholders, after the Sunset Date, to act by written consent limits the circumstances under which stockholders can act on their own initiative to remove directors, or alter or amend New Planet’s organizational documents outside of a duly called special or annual meeting of the stockholders of New Planet. Further, the dMY IV Board believes that continuing to limit the New Planet Stockholders’ ability to act by written consent (after the Sunset Date) will reduce the time and effort the New Planet Board and management would need to devote to New Planet Stockholder proposals, which time and effort could distract those directors and management from other important company business. |
• | In addition, the elimination of New Planet Stockholders’ ability (after the Sunset Date) to act by written consent may have certain anti-takeover effects by forcing a potential acquiror to take control of the New Planet Board only at a duly called special or annual meeting. However, this proposal is not in response to any effort of which dMY is aware to obtain control of Planet, and dMY and its management do not presently intend to propose other anti-takeover measures in future proxy solicitations. Further, the dMY IV Board does not believe that the effects of the elimination of New Planet Stockholder action by written consent (after the Sunset Date) will create a significant impediment to a tender offer or other effort to take control of New Planet. Inclusion of these provisions in the Proposed Charter might also increase the likelihood that a potential acquiror would negotiate the terms of any proposed transaction with the dMY IV Board and thereby help protect New Planet Stockholders from the use of abusive and coercive takeover tactics. |
• | The Proposed Charter requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the outstanding shares of New Planet common stock to amend, alter, repeal or rescind Articles V (Stock), VI (Directors), VII (Stockholder Meetings), VIII (Director Liability), IX (Business Combination), X (Indemnification), XI (Forum Selection), XII (Corporate Opportunities) and XIII (Amendments). The dMY IV Board believes this amendment protects key provisions of the Proposed Charter from arbitrary amendment and prevents a simple majority of New Planet Stockholders from taking actions that may be harmful to other New Planet Stockholders or making changes to provisions that are intended to protect all New Planet Stockholders. |
• | The dMY IV Board intends to shield stockholders from the coerciveness of front-end loaded two-tier offers by preventing the offeror from effecting the second step of the offer unless the target’s board of directors approves such transaction. |
• | New Planet will not be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law. Section 203 is a default provision of the DGCL that prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with “interested stockholders” (a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock) for three years following the date that a person becomes an |

While Section 203 is the default provision under the DGCL, the DGCL allows companies to opt out of Section 203 of the DGCL by including a provision in their certificate of incorporation expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL. In accordance with Section 203, New Planet’s election to opt out of Section 203 will take effect twelve months following the date the Proposed Charter is filed and, during this twelve-month waiting period immediately following the Effective Time, the restrictions on business combinations described above will continue to apply. |
• | The dMY IV Board has elected to opt out of Section 203, but the dMY IV Board believes that it is in the best interests of New Planet Stockholders to have protections similar to those afforded by Section 203. These provisions will encourage any potential acquiror to negotiate with the dMY IV Board and therefore provide an opportunity to possibly obtain a higher purchase price than would otherwise be offered in connection with a proposed acquisition of New Planet.

• | The Proposed Charter excludes certain transactions from being “corporate opportunities” and further provides that that the Sponsor, its Affiliates and non-employee members of the New Planet Board are not subject to the doctrine of corporate opportunity and do not have any fiduciary duty to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as New Planet or any of its subsidiaries. The dMY IV Board believes that this provision is appropriate because such persons should not be restricted from investing in or operating similar businesses and such parties would be unwilling or unable to enter into the Mergers without such assurances due to their activities as investors in a wide range of companies. |
• | The Proposed Charter designates New Planet as a public benefit corporation and identifies its public benefit as to accelerate humanity toward a more sustainable, secure and prosperous world by illuminating environmental and social change; |
• | The purpose of the new public entity reflects its designation as a public benefit corporation under Delaware law. |

• | the PIPE Investment; and |
• | the repayment of Planet’s existing debt. |
• | Planet’s existing stockholders will have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity under the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios with over 90% of the voting interest in each scenario; |
• | Planet will have the ability to nominate a majority of the initial members of the Board of Directors of the combined entity; |
• | Planet’s senior management will be the senior management of the combined entity; and |
• | Planet is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and has the larger employee base. |

• | may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the dMY IV Class B common stock resulted in the issuance of dMY Class A common stock on a greater than one-to-one |
• | may subordinate the rights of holders of dMY IV Class A common stock if shares of preferred stock are issued with rights senior to those afforded our dMY IV Class A common stock; |
• | could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our dMY IV Class A common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors; |
• | may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and |
• | may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our dMY IV Class A common stock and/or warrants. |

• | increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and |

(2) | 1/48th of the shares subject to the option vest on each one-month anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to continued service through the applicable vesting date. In the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than “cause” or the executive resigns for “good reason”, in each case, within 12 months following a “change in control” of the Company, 100% of the then-unvested shares underlying the option will vest. |
(3) | 25% of the shares subject to the option vest on the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, with 1/48th of the shares vesting monthly thereafter. In the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than “cause” or if she resigns for “good reason”, in each case, within 12 months after a “change in control” of the Company, 50% of the then-unvested shares underlying the option will vest. |
(4) | Represents restricted stock units that are subject to both a service-based vesting condition and a liquidity-based vesting condition. The service-based vesting condition is satisfied as to 25% of the restricted stock units vest on the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and as to 1/48th of the restricted stock units monthly thereafter. The liquidity-based vesting condition is satisfied if an initial public offering of the Company’s securities or a “change in control” of the Company occurs within seven years after the grant date (and will be satisfied as a result of the Business Combination). In the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than “cause” or if she resigns for “good reason”, in each case, within 12 months after a “change in control” of the Company, 50% of the then-unvested restricted stock units will vest. |
