5.	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, our Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we consummate an initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment.

On May 15, 2014, the Company issued a non-interest bearing convertible promissory note to the Sponsor amounting to $1,263,263, of which proceeds of $1,000,000 were used as working capital in order to finance transaction costs in connection with our efforts to pursue an initial Business Combination and $263,263 was used to pay operating costs incurred in the period from inception through December 31, 2014. On May 12, 2015, the Company issued an additional non-interest bearing convertible promissory note to the Sponsor amounting to $1,343,790.

As of September 30, 2015, the total amount owed to the Sponsor of $4,071,929, is recorded as convertible promissory notes and due to affiliate in the accompanying balance sheets. The convertible note is due on the earlier of (1) November 24, 2015 (or, if the Extension Proposal is approved, December 24, 2015), and (2) immediately following the consummation of the initial Business Combination. At the Sponsor’s election, following the consummation of a Business Combination, the notes will convert into Common Stock at the greater of (1) $10.00 per share, and (2) the 30 day trailing average of the closing price per share.

Effective October 8, 2015, the Company issued a non-interest bearing convertible promissory note to the Sponsor amounting to $1,250,000. Total amount owed to the Sponsor under the convertible promissory note amounts to $3,857,053.

In addition, in connection with the July Extension Meeting, on July 21, 2015, the Company issued a non-interest bearing promissory note to the Sponsor for an aggregate of approximately $361,436. The Company used the proceeds from the note to deposit $0.06 per share that was not redeemed in the Trust Account. The note will be repaid on the earlier of (1) November 24, 2015 (or, if the Extension Proposal is approved, December 24, 2015), or (2) immediately following consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

In July 2013, the Company issued 2,003,225 shares of Common Stock to the Sponsor (the “Sponsor’s Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, the Company completed the private sale of 721,500 shares of Common Stock (the “Private Placement Shares”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share (including 76,500 shares from exercising of the over-allotment), to the Company’s Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,215,000 (including additional $76,500 as a result of the over-allotment being exercised). The Private Placement Shares are identical to the shares sold in the Public Offering, except that the Sponsor has agreed (1) to vote the Private Placement Shares in favor of any proposed Business Combination, and (2) not to convert any Private Placement Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve any proposed initial Business Combination or to sell any Private Placement Shares to the Company pursuant to any tender offer in connection with any proposed initial Business Combination. Additionally, the Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

The Sponsor’s Shares are identical to the Public Shares, except that (1) the Sponsor’s Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, and (2) our Sponsor has agreed: (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Sponsor’s Shares, Private Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination and (ii) to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Sponsor’s Shares and Private Placement Shares if we fail to consummate a Business Combination within 25 months from the date of our prospectus (October 24, 2013). However, our Sponsor will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to any Public Shares it holds if we fail to consummate a Business Combination within such time period. If we submit our initial Business Combination to our public stockholders for a vote, our Sponsor has agreed to vote its Sponsor’s Shares, Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares held in favor of our initial Business Combination.

All of the Sponsor’s Shares outstanding at the time of the Public Offering were placed in escrow with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent. Of the total Sponsor’s Shares, 50% of such shares will be released from escrow six months after the closing of the Business Combination. The remaining 50% of the Sponsor’s Shares will be released from escrow one year after the closing of the Business Combination.

On October 24, 2013, the date that its securities were first listed on the NASDAQ, the Company agreed to pay its Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative services and secretarial support. This arrangement was agreed to by its Sponsor for its benefit and is not intended to provide its Sponsor compensation in lieu of salary or other remuneration. The Company believes that such fees are at least as favorable as the Company could have obtained from an unaffiliated person. Upon consummation of its initial Business Combination or our liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

On March 12, 2015, the Company entered into compensation letter agreements with certain directors, contingent upon the consummation of a Business Combination. According to the terms of these compensation letter agreements, subject to the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, each of the Company’s directors who continue to serve in that capacity following the Business Combination will be entitled to receive a one-time cash retainer, in the amount of $60,000 for the inside directors and between $33,750-$86,250 for independent directors. As long as each such director continues to serve on the board of directors, such director will thereafter be eligible for an annual cash retainer of $60,000, and an additional $5,000 for each committee of the board of directors on which such director serves. The chairman of the board of directors will be eligible for an adjusted annual cash retainer of $80,000, which will be inclusive of any committee retainers.

In addition, subject to consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination and approval of a stock incentive plan by the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s independent directors who continue to serve on the board of directors following the Business Combination will be eligible to receive options to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to $60,000 ($80,000 for the chairman of the board of directors), at a price per share equal to the Company’s stock price on the grant date, which is expected to be two business days following the closing of the Business Combination. The options will be subject to a vesting schedule.
