Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 1,099,600 units (the “Private Units”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, to the Sponsor and the underwriters, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $10,996,000. The Private Units are identical to the public Units sold in the IPO, except that the underlying warrants: (i) will not be redeemable by us and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, as described in this prospectus, so long as they are held by our Sponsor, the underwriters or any of their respective permitted transferees. If the warrants included in the Private Units are held by holders other than our Sponsor, the underwriters or any of their respective permitted transferees, then the warrants included in the Private Units will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the public warrants.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

In connection with the IPO, each of Dr. Avi S. Katz, Dr. Raluca Dinu, Messrs. Neil Miotto and Andrea Betti-Berutto, and Ms. Dorothy D. Hayes (collectively, the “Directors”), on February 8, 2021 entered into the D&O Letter Agreement as well as an indemnity agreement with the Company. In addition, on February 8, 2021, the Company issued 10,000 insider shares to Dorothy D. Hayes, one of our independent directors, and 5,000 shares to Brad Weightman, our Chief Financial Officer, solely in consideration of future services. Following this issuance, on February 8, 2021, we effected a 1.2:1 stock split of our common stock, which resulted in Ms. Hayes and Mr. Weightman holding 12,000 and 6,000 insider shares, respectively, following the stock split.

Other than the foregoing, none of the Directors are party to any arrangement or understanding with any person pursuant to which they were appointed as directors, nor are they party to any transactions required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K involving the Company.

Copies of the D&O Letter Agreement and indemnity agreements are attached as Exhibits 10.2, 10.11 through 10.16 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

A copy of the Amended and Restated Charter is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, the funds in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest to occur of: (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination within the required time period, (ii) the redemption of 100% of the Company’s outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or during any extension period that may apply as a result of an amendment to the Amended and Restated Charter, subject to applicable law, and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Charter to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or with respect to any other provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity.
