The Company has filed Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement (the “Registration Statement”), together with this letter, via EDGAR submission.

Form S-1 filed February 12, 2021

General

1. We note that the fee table on the facing page indicates that the registration statement is registering the shares underlying the warrants. We also note that the warrants being offered will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of your initial business combination. Finally, we note the disclosure on page 11 that you will file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement or a new registration statement to cover the common stock underlying the warrants. Given that the business combination could occur within one year and therefore the warrants may become exercisable within one year, please revise your disclosure throughout the prospectus to clarify that the registration statement is registering the shares underlying the warrants. Refer to Securities Act Sections Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation Question 103.04 for additional guidance. Please also revise the legality opinions.
