Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously
Issued Financial Statements or Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Report.
On June 14, 2021, Good Works
Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) management,
in consultation with its audit committee (the “Audit Committee”), concluded that it was appropriate to restate (i) the Company’s
previously issued audited financial statements as of December 31, 2020, and for the period from June 24, 2020 (inception) through December
31, 2020, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, originally filed with the SEC on February 17, 2021 and
as previously amended on May 7, 2021; and (ii) the Company’s previously issued unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2021,
and for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which were included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, originally filed
with the SEC on May 7, 2021. Considering such restatements, the Company concluded that such previously issued financial statements should
no longer be relied upon. The Company will file: (i) a second amendment to its Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2020 and
for the period from June 24, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, and (ii) an amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as
of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021, each of which will include the restated audited financial statements
for such periods.
The restatement relates to the Company’s reevaluation of the
accounting treatment of the 8,500,000 redeemable warrants (the “Public Warrants”) that were included in the units issued by
the Company in its initial public offering and reclassification of amounts related to redeemable shares to temporary equity. Previously,
the Public Warrants were reflected as liabilities as opposed to a component of stockholders’ equity on the balance sheet as of December
31, 2020 and as of March 31, 2021, based on the Company’s application of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC
815-40”). The Company is capitalized as a single class of common stock, accordingly, a qualifying cash tender offer of more than
50% of the common stock will always result in a change-in-control, and in accordance with ASC 815-40-55-3, this would not preclude permanent
equity classification of the Public Warrants. Therefore, the Company is restating its financial statements to reclass its Public Warrants
from liabilities classified to equity classified.
The Company’s management and the Audit Committee
have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Marcum LLP, the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm.
