In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, members of the Company’s founding team or any of their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds 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. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

On September 15, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $1.5 million, a portion of which is to be used to fund the extension deposit made to the Trust Account. The promissory note is bearing and payable upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. If a Business Combination is not consummated, the promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account. December 30, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated promissory note with the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $5,500,000 to be used for working capital purposes. The amended promissory note does not bear any interest, is not convertible and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, (ii) the date on which the Company redeems 100% of its Public Shares for cash and (iii) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, an aggregate of approximately $3 million and $1.5 million has been borrowed under the amended promissory note, respectively. If a Business Combination is not consummated, the amended promissory note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account.

The Company entered into an agreement that provided that, commencing on the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on the New York Stock Exchange through the earlier of consummation of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services. The Company incurred $30,000 in expenses in connection with such services during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, as reflected in the administrative expenses-related party on the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $305,000 and $275,000, respectively, in accrued expenses in connection with such services as reflected in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

In addition, the Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential partner businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The Company’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by the Company to the Sponsor, executive officers or directors of the Company’s or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial Business Combination will be made using of funds held outside the Trust Account.
