Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant to purchase one share of Class A common stock.

No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the holders’ Units into shares of Class A common stock and redeemable warrants.
