Note 9 — Commitments & Contingencies

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Units (and their underlying securities), Representative Shares (As defined below) and any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and their underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement signed on the effective date of the Registration Statements. The holders of a majority of these securities will be entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of common stock are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Private Units and units issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates an Initial Business Combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company’s consummation of an Initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,800,000 additional Public Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On December 23, 2020, the underwriters exercised its full over-allotment option of 1,800,000 units.

  

On December 23, 2020, the underwriters were paid a cash underwriting fee of 2% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, totaling $2,760,000. 

 

In addition, prior to the IPO, the Company issued to EarlyBirdCapital an aggregate of 380,000 shares of common stock (the “Representative Shares”) at approximately $0.0001 per share.

 

The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statements pursuant to Rule 5110(g)(1) of the FINRA Manual. Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1), these securities will not be sold during the offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statements, except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their bona fide officers or partners, provided that all securities so transferred remain subject to the lockup restriction above for the remainder of the time period.

 

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

 

The Company has engaged EarlyBirdCapital as an advisor in connection with the Company’s business combination to assist the Company in holding meetings with the Company’s stockholders to discuss the potential business combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities in connection with the Company’s Initial Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the business combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Initial Business Combination. The Company will pay EarlyBirdCapital a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of the Company’s Initial Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable); provided that up to 30% of the fee may be allocated at the Company’s sole discretion to other FINRA members (including, with EarlyBirdCapital’s prior consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, companies affiliated with the Company or the Company’s officers or directors, including Ackrell Capital) that assist the Company in identifying or consummating an Initial Business Combination.
