Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights Agreement

The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, (ii) Private Placement Warrants and (iii) Private Placement Warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and in each case holders of their underlying securities, as applicable), have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of the Company’s securities held by the holders prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement executed in connection with the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of our initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriter Agreement

The underwriters of the IPO were entitled to a deferred underwriting commission of $0.50 on the first 10,000,000 Units sold in the IPO and $0.70 per Unit sold thereafter, or $6,050,000 in the aggregate. On August 28, 2023, the underwriters waived any right to receive the deferred underwriting commission and will therefore receive no additional underwriting commissions in connection with the closing of the Flybondi Business Combination. As a result, $6,050,000 was recorded to accumulated deficit in relation to the reduction of the deferred underwriter commission. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the deferred underwriting commission is $0 and $6,050,000, respectively.

The Company complies with ASC 405 and derecognized the deferred underwriting commission liability upon being released of the obligation by the underwriters. To account for the waiver of the deferred underwriting commission, the Company reduced the deferred underwriter commission liability to $0 and reversed the previously recorded cost of issuing the instruments in the IPO, which included a reduction in the accumulated deficit and increased income available to Class B Common Stock by $6,050,000, which was previously allocated to the Class A Common Stock subject to redemption and accretion recognized at the date of the IPO.

Anchor Investment

The Anchor Investors purchased an aggregate of approximately $60.8 million of the Units in the IPO at the public offering price. There can be no assurance that the Anchor Investors will retain their Units prior to or upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination. In addition, none of the Anchor Investors has any obligation to vote any of their Public Shares in favor of the initial Business Combination.

The Anchor Investors have not been granted any stockholder or other rights that are in addition to those granted to our other Public Stockholders, and were only issued equity interests in the Sponsor, with no right to control the Sponsor or vote or dispose of any securities held by the Sponsor. Further, unlike some anchor investor arrangements of other blank check companies, the Anchor Investors are not required to (i) hold any Units, Class A Common Stock or Public Warrants they may have purchased in the IPO or thereafter for any amount of time, (ii) vote any shares of Class A Common Stock they may own at the applicable time in favor of our initial Business Combination or (iii) refrain from exercising their right to redeem their Public Shares at the time of the Business Combination. The Anchor Investors have the same rights to the funds held in the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold as the rights afforded to the other Public Stockholders.

Forward Purchase Shares

On August 23, 2021, pursuant to the FPAs, Crescent Park, which is one of the Anchor Investors, and Carnegie Park agreed to purchase up to 2,500,000 Forward Purchase Shares in the case of Crescent Park and up to 500,000 Forward Purchase Shares in the case of Carnegie Park at $10.00 per share (as such price per share may be reduced to $9.20 per share or further reduced to below $9.20 per share with respect to all or part of the Forward Purchase Shares) for gross proceeds up to $30,000,000 in the aggregate if all of the Forward Purchase Shares were purchased at $10.00 per share (or up to $27,600,000 in the aggregate if all of the Forward Purchase Shares were purchased at $9.20 per share or up to a lower amount in the aggregate if all of the Forward Purchase Shares were purchased at less than $9.20 per share) in private placements that would occur concurrently with the consummation of the initial Business Combination.

On December 8, 2023 and December 12, 2023, the Company and each of Carnegie Park and Crescent Park entered into the FPA Termination Agreements to mutually terminate and cancel the FPAs.

Excise Tax

In connection with the votes to amend the Amended and Restated Charter at the First Special Meeting and the Second Special Meeting, holders of 10,301,658 shares of Class A Common Stock properly exercised their right to redeem their Public Shares for an aggregate redemption amount of $107,607,366. As such, the Company has recorded a 1% Excise Tax liability in the amount of $1,076,073 on the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2023. The liability does not impact the accompanying statements of operations and is offset against additional paid-in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid-in capital is not available.

The Cartesian Escrow Parties (as defined in the Flybondi Business Combination Agreement) agreed to fund $900,000 into escrow for the payment of the Company’s excise tax liability. Such amount shall be released to the Company on April 26, 2024 solely for the purpose of the Company paying the Excise Tax liability and under conditions as stipulated in the Flybondi Business Combination Agreement.

This Excise Tax liability can be offset by future share issuances within the same fiscal year, which will be evaluated and adjusted in the period in which the issuances occur.
