    The Reporting Persons own shares of Class B ordinary shares. The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares on the first business day following the Issuer’s completion of an initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as further described herein. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities convertible or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts issued in the Issuer’s initial public offering (“IPO”) and related to the closing of the initial business combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares will convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (subject to waiver by holders of a majority of the Class B ordinary shares then in issue) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon the completion of the IPO plus the number of Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the IPO (net of redemptions), excluding 150,000 Class A ordinary shares issued to the representative of the underwriters in the IPO (EarlyBirdCapital, Inc.) and its designees in a private placement prior to the IPO and any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any private warrants issued to Finnovate Sponsor L.P. (“Finnovate Sponsor”), a partner or affiliate of Finnovate Sponsor, or any of the Issuer’s officers or directors.
