⁽¹⁾ The percentage used in this Schedule 13G/A is calculated based upon an aggregate of 15,173,100 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, which is the sum of (i) 15,000,000 Class A common shares outstanding as of November 23, 2016, as reported in the Issuer’s Report of Foreign Issuer on Form 6-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 30, 2016 and (ii) the 173,100 Class A common shares issued by the Issuer on December 16, 2016 in relation to a partial exercise of the over-allotment option for which an additional 173,100 Units were sold, as reported in the Issuer’s Report of Foreign Issuer on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on December 20, 2016. For the purpose of this calculation, the number of “founder shares” outstanding has not been taken into account. The founder shares are classified as Class B common shares, which will automatically convert into Class A common shares at the time of Issuer’s initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments. Issuer has not completed an initial business combination as of February 22, 2017. For the reasons stated in Item 4 of this filing, the Warrants (as described hereinafter) are being excluded from the beneficial ownership calculations with regards to the Class A common shares.
