   1.                                                   Please revise your
Summary to disclose in quantitative and qualitative terms how
                                                        economic incentives
could result in substantial misalignment of interests where an initial
                                                        business combination
does occur. For example, since your sponsor acquired an initial
                                                        20% stake for
approximately $0.009 per share and the offering is for $10.00 per unit, your
                                                        sponsor could make a
substantial profit after the initial business combination even if most
                                                        public investors
experience substantial losses. In addition, because your anchor investors
                                                        will acquire founder
shares for approximately $0.009 per share, the anchor investors may
                                                        vote for a transaction
and make a substantial profit even if other public investors vote
                                                        against the transaction
and subsequently experience substantial losses.
