NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On November 15, 2018, the Sponsor purchased 8,625,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A common stock upon consummation of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments, as described in Note 6.

The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Units was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Initial Stockholders would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Initial Stockholders did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering). On April 9, 2019, as a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their option to purchase additional Units, 985,670 Founder Shares were forfeited and 139,330 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture, resulting in an aggregate of 7,639,330 Founder Shares issued and outstanding.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $9,000,000. On April 9, 2019, in connection with the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their option to purchase additional Units, the Company sold an additional 74,310 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $111,465. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Advance from Related Party

The Sponsor advanced the Company an aggregate of $77,389 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering. The advances were non-interest bearing and due on demand. The advances were repaid on February 27, 2019.

Promissory Note – Related Party

On November 19, 2018, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $400,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of June 30, 2019 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note of $400,000 were repaid on February 27, 2019.

Related Party Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a 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 (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $2,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except that the warrants underlying such units would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no outstanding balance under the Working Capital Loans.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on the February 21, 2019 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, the Company agreed to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of  $37,000 per month for office space, administrative support and salaries to be paid to employees of such affiliate for due diligence and related services in connection with the Company’s search for a target company (although no salaries or fees will be paid from the monthly fee to members of the Company’s management team). For each of the three months September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $111,000  in fees for these services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $333,000 and $259,000 in fees for these services, respectively.
