NOTE D – WARRANT LIABILITY

 

Pursuant to the Company’s Offering, the Company sold 8,000,000 units, which subsequently separated into one warrant at an initial exercise price of $11.50 and one share of common stock. The Sponsor also purchased 4,000,000 warrants in a private placement in connection with the Offering. The warrants expire five years after the date of the Company’s initial business combination. The warrants issued contain a restructuring price adjustment provision in the event of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, subsequent to the initial business combination, where the surviving entity is not the Company and whose stock is not listed for trading on a national securities exchange or on the OTC Bulletin Board, or is not to be so listed for trading immediately following such event (the “Applicable Event”). The exercise price of the warrant is decreased immediately following an Applicable Event by a formula that causes the warrants to not be indexed to the Company’s own stock. Management used the quoted market price for the valuation of the warrants to determine the warrant liability to be $3,000,000 and $3,600,000 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. This valuation is revised on a quarterly basis until the warrants are exercised or they expire with the changes in fair value recorded in the statement of operations.
