Description of Organization, Business Operations and Liquidity and Going Concern |
Note 1—Description of Organization, Business Operations and Liquidity and Going Corner Growth Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on October 20, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies. Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on businesses in the technology industries primarily located in the United States. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering described below (the “Initial Public Offering”) and, since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for initial Business Combination candidates, and since the signing of the Business Combination Agreement described below, the completion of this proposed transaction. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and will recognize changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities as other income (loss). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The registration statements for the Company’s Initial Public Offering were declared effective on December 16, 2020. On December 21, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 40,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”), included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the partial exercise by the underwriters of the overallotment option to purchase an additional 5,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $400,000,000 which is described in Note 4 . Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 7,600,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to CGA Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $11,400,000, which is described in Note 5 . Transaction costs amounted to $22,766,081 consisting of $8,000,000 of underwriting fees, $14,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $766,081 of other offering costs. As further described in Note 6 , effective December 20, 2022, in accordance with a fee reduction agreement, the underwriter agreed to irrevocably forfeit $10,000,000 of the aggregate $14,000,000 deferred fee that would otherwise be payable to it in cash pursuant the underwriting agreement, resulting in a reduced deferred fee of $4,000,000, which shall be payable to the underwriter upon consummation of an initial business combination, as originally set forth in the underwriting agreement. As more fully described in Note 6, o n June 23, 2023, the Company and the underwriter agreed to terminate the December 20,2022 fee reduction agreement solely upon execution of a side letter in accordance with the duly executed Mutual Termination of Initial Fee Reduction Agreement. On June 23, 2023, in accordance with the duly executed Side Letter to Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the underwriter agreed that the underwriter will irrevocably forfeit $ 7,000,000 (instead of $10,000,000) of the aggregate $ 14,000,000 Original Fee that would otherwise be payable to it in cash pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, resulting in a reduced fee of $ 7,000,000 (the “Fee”), which shall be payable in cash by the Company to the underwriter upon consummation of a Business Combination, as originally set forth in the Underwriting Agreement. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 21, 2020, an amount of $400,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company. To mitigate the risk of us being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company under the Investment Company Act, on or about the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Initial Public Offering, or December 21, 2022, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government securities or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash (i.e., in one or more bank accounts) until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below. The Company will provide holders (the “Public Shareholders”) of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, sold in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Shares”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6 ). These Public Shares will be classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with ASC 480. In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 and the approval of an ordinary resolution. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as amended, the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem its Public Shares irrespective of whether it votes for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial shareholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 5 ) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company adopted an insider trading policy which requires insiders to (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel prior to execution. In addition, the initial shareholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.
Extraordinary General Meeting On December 20, 2022, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), which amended the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from December 21, 2022 to June 21, 2023. The shareholders approved a proposal to amend the trust agreement to change the date on which Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company must commence liquidation of the Trust Account from (A) the earlier of the Company’s completion of an initial business combination and December 21, 2022 to (B) the earlier of the Company’s completion of an initial business combination and June 21, 2023. In connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting, shareholders elected to redeem 38,808,563 Class A ordinary shares, resulting in redemption payments out of the Trust Account totaling $393,676,799, or approximately $10.14 per share which includes $5,591,169 of earnings in the Trust Account not previously withdrawn. In January 2023, the Company made redemption payments of $3,262,655 out of the Trust Account that were due to the redeeming shareholders who elected to redeem their shares as part of the Extraordinary General Meeting. This amount was reflected as due to shareholders in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. Subsequent to the redemptions, 1,191,437 Class A ordinary shares remained issued and outstanding until the Extension Meeting further described below. Business Combination Agreement On February 9, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Company has entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Softline Holding plc to proceed with a potential business combination that would result in the combined company being publicly-listed on the Nasdaq. The business combination is subject to the completion of definitive documentation. On May 4, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive business combination agreement with Noventiq Holdings PLC (formerly known as Softline Holding plc). As disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 4, 2023, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, Noventiq Holdings PLC, a company organized under the laws of the Cyprus (“Noventiq”), and Corner Growth SPAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Noventiq, with Noventiq surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the business combination (the “Closing”), it is anticipated that the Company will change its name to “Noventiq Holding Company” (“New Noventiq”) and certain securities of New Noventiq are expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”). The date on which the Closing actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.” In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Act (As Revised) and the Cyprus Companies Law, prior to the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby by the requisite vote of Noventiq’s shareholders, Noventiq will re-domicile from Cyprus to the Cayman Islands. The Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Proposed Business Combination.” The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and Noventiq. The Proposed Business Combination is subject to certain customary closing conditions, such as the prior approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby by the requisite vote of Noventiq’s shareholders and the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form F-6 registering the ADSs (as defined below). There is no assurance that the Proposed Business Combination will be consummated by the Extended Date (or any such later date of termination approved in accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association) described below. Consideration and Structure At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each ordinary share of Noventiq outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Noventiq Shares”) (other than shares held in treasury of Noventiq or owned by any subsidiary of Noventiq and held by shareholders of Noventiq who have perfected their dissenters’ rights in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Act) will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into a number of the Company’s newly issued Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), equal to the “Exchange Ratio” determined by dividing (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration Value (as defined below) by (B) $10; and each outstanding vested and unvested option to purchase Noventiq Shares (“Noventiq Option”) will be assumed and converted into an option to purchase Ordinary Shares (each a “Rollover Option”). The number of Ordinary Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) that are subject to each Rollover Option shall be equal to the product of (i) the number of Noventiq Shares subject to the Noventiq Option and (ii) the Exchange Ratio, and the exercise price per share of the Rollover Option (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of the Noventiq Option by (B) the Exchange Ratio. For purposes of the Business Combination Agreement, Noventiq’s equity value is $877,000,000 plus the amount equal to aggregate exercise price of the Noventiq’s options (the “Equity Value”) and the “Per Share Merger Consideration Value” is an amount in dollars equal to the sum of the Equity Value, divided by the number of outstanding shares. In addition to the foregoing consideration, Noventiq shareholders shall be entitled to receive, as additional consideration, one Class A Contingent Share Right (the “Class A CSRs”), one Class B Contingent Share Right (the “Class B CSRs”) and one Class C Contingent Share Right (the “Class C CSRs” and, together with the Class A CSRs and the Class B CSRs, the “CSRs”), in each case, for each Ordinary Share issuable to such Noventiq shareholder at the Effective Time pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, which provide the holders of such CSRs the contingent right to receive additional newly issued Ordinary Shares (the “Earnout Shares”) upon the occurrence of certain events and subject to certain conditions, as specified under the Business Combination Agreement, during the period from and after the Closing until the fifth anniversary of the Closing (the “Earnout Period”). During the Earnout Period, if New Noventiq experiences a Change of Control (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), then any Earnout Shares not already earned and issued to the Noventiq shareholders shall be deemed earned and the balance of the Earnout Shares shall be issuable by New Noventiq to the Noventiq shareholders immediately prior to consummation of such Change of Control transaction subject to certain conditions and upon the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. On May 4, 2023, the Sponsor held 9,825,001 Founder Shares. Of these, 2,500,000 Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture based on the sum of (i) the amount of gross proceeds raised prior to the Effective Time from additional financings, if any, by the Company and (ii) the cash balance of the Company’s Trust Account held for the benefit of its public shareholders, but the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination is not subject to a minimum amount of additional financing having been raised. At the Effective Time, the Founder Shares (net of any forfeited shares) will automatically convert into Ordinary Shares on a basis, subject to adjustment, on the terms and conditions provided in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. An additional 5,000,000 Founder Shares, out of the 9,825,001 Founder Shares described above, will be held in escrow and only released, in three equal installments, upon the occurrence of the same milestone events as the Earnout Shares are issued. While preparing the attached Form 10-Q/A the Company discovered another previously undisclosed agreement. A portion of the Founder Shares will be distributed under the Finder’s Fee Arrangement. The Finder’s Fee Arrangement provides for the Sponsor to make a $2 million cash payment to the third party and provide an option to purchase an economic interest in 2,000,000 membership units of the Sponsor contingent on the consummation of the business acquisition, which are accounted for under the guidance in ASC 718. Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. Compensation expense related to such shares is recognized only when the performance-based vesting condition (i.e. the consummation of the business acquisition) is probable of achievement under the applicable accounting literature. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the consummation of the business combination, in an amount equal to the number of such shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the transfer of such shares. The Company will reflect the transactions in its financial statements when the business acquisition is consummated as the Sponsor is a principal shareholder in the Company and the Company benefits from the Finder’s Fee Arrangement. The Finder’s Fee Arrangement included potential compensation payable to the third party. Disclosure of this potential compensation arrangement was omitted from the Original Quarterly Report in error. In connection with the Proposed Business Combination and pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Company has agreed to establish a Level 2 ADS facility by entering into a Deposit Agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (or an affiliate), as depositary, and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form F-6 registering American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”), each representing one Ordinary Share (the “ADS Facility”). Following the Closing, each holder of Ordinary Shares will be able to deposit such holder’s shares into the ADS Facility and receive ADSs, which are expected to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “NVIQ.” Following the Closing, the Company’s outstanding warrants, issued under a Warrant Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, will remain outstanding and are expected to continue trading on Nasdaq. In connection with the Closing, the ADSs, each representing one Ordinary Share, are expected to be listed on Nasdaq as of the Effective Time.
Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor entered into a support agreement with the Company and Noventiq (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”), pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to, among other things, (i) vote in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) not to solicit, initiate, submit, facilitate (including by means of furnishing or disclosing information), discuss or negotiate, directly or indirectly, any inquiry, proposal or offer (written or oral) with any third-party with respect to a CGAC Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement); (iii) be bound by certain transfer restrictions with respect to its shares in the Company prior to the closing of the Proposed Business Combination; (iv) not to transfer any of the Restricted Securities (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement) from and after the Closing and until the earlier of (A) the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) the date following the Closing Date on which the Company completes a Liquidity Event (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement). Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company, Noventiq and certain shareholders of Noventiq (collectively, the “Noventiq Supporting Shareholders”) duly executed and delivered to the Company a support agreement (the “Voting and Support Agreement”), pursuant to which each Noventiq Supporting Shareholder agreed to, among other things, (i) the Business Combination and the adoption of the Business Combination Agreement any other matters necessary or reasonably requested by Noventiq for consummation of the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) not to transfer any Noventiq Shares on or prior to the Closing (subject to the exceptions set forth therein), and (ii) to a lock-up of the Noventiq Shares from and after the Closing and until the earlier of (A) the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) the date following the Closing Date on which the Company completes a Liquidity Event (as defined in the Voting and Support Agreement). The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that, at or prior to the Closing, the Company, the Sponsor Parties and certain Noventiq shareholders will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor and such Noventiq shareholders will be granted certain registration rights with respect to their respective Ordinary Shares of the Company, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. On June 15, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which was adjourned and reconvened on June 20, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”), to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles Amendment”) to (i) extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from June 21, 2023 to March 21, 2024 (the “Extended Date”) or such earlier date as shall be determined by the Company’s board of directors in its sole discretion (the “Amended Termination Date” and, such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”), (ii) eliminate from the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association the limitation that the Company shall not redeem Class A ordinary shares included as part of the units sold in the IPO to the extent that such redemption would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”) and (iii) amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to provide that Class B ordinary shares may be converted either at the time of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or at any earlier date at the option of the holders of Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Conversion Amendment Proposal”). The shareholders of the Company approved the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal and the Founder Conversion Amendment Proposal at the Extension Meeting and on June 21, 2023, the Company filed the Articles Amendment with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal and the Founder Conversion Amendment Proposal, shareholders elected to redeem 771,499 Class A ordinary shares, resulting in redemption payments out of the Trust Account totaling $8,085,078, or approximately $10.48 per share which includes $370,088 of earnings in the Trust Account not previously withdrawn. Subsequent to the redemptions, 419,938 Class A ordinary shares remained issued and outstanding. On June 21, 2023, in connection with the approval of the Founder Conversion Amendment, the Sponsor, the holder of an aggregate of 9,825,001 shares of the Company’s Class B Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, elected to convert 9,825,000 shares of the Class B Ordinary Shares held by it on a basis into Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company, with immediate effect. Following such conversion, the Sponsor holds 9,825,000 shares of Class A Ordinary Shares and 1 share of Class B Ordinary Shares and the Company will have an aggregate of 10,244,938 shares of Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding (419,938 of which are subject to possible redemption) and 175,000 shares of Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. In connection with the conversion, the Sponsor has agreed to certain transfer restrictions, a waiver of redemption rights, a waiver of any right to receive funds from the Trust Account and the obligation to vote in favor of an initial business combination. The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “initial shareholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100 % of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination by the Extended Date (the “Combination Period”) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment. to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial shareholders or members of the Company’s management team acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6 ) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination during the Combination Period and, in such event, such amount will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only the $10.00 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Liquidity and Going Concern As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $21,761 in its operating bank accounts, $4,493,902 in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its ordinary shares in connection therewith and a working capital deficit of $3,467,719. Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. Based on its current cash and working capital balances, management believes that the Company will not have sufficient working capital to meet its needs through the consummation of a Business Combination. In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. The terms of such loans have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. However, as discussed in Note 5, as of September 30, 2023, the Company is indebted to the Sponsor and its affiliates fo r $ of operating and formation costs paid by these related parties on the Company’s behalf, along with $ of unpaid administrati ve fe es. The Sponsor is not under any obligation to make additional expenditures on the In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern” management has determined that the date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, which is considered one year from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company demonstrates other adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These other adverse conditions are negative financial trends, specifically a working capital deficiency and other adverse key financial ratios. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts or classification of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after March 20, 2024, our scheduled liquidation date if we do not complete the Business Combination prior to such date. There is no assurance that the Company will complete the Proposed Business Combination with Noventiq before March 24, 2024, or at all.
