EXPLANATORY NOTE

References throughout this Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we,” “us,” the “Company” or “our company” are to 5:01 Acquisition Corp., unless the context otherwise indicates.

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of 5:01 Acquisition Corp. as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 10, 2021.

On November 10, 2021, 5:01 Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) filed its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”), which included a subsection of Note 2 entitled “Revision to Previously Issued Financial Statements,” (“Note 2”) that describes a revision to a portion of the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the classification of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) on October 16, 2020, including the shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option (collectively, the “Public Shares”). As described in Note 2, upon its IPO, the Company classified a portion of the Public Shares as permanent equity to maintain net tangible assets greater than $5,000,000 on the basis that the Company will consummate its business combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. The Company’s management re-evaluated the conclusion and determined that the Public Shares included certain provisions that require classification of the Public Shares as temporary equity regardless of the minimum net tangible assets required to complete the Company’s initial business combination. As a result, management corrected the error by revising all Public Shares as temporary equity. This resulted in an adjustment to the initial carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital, accumulated deficit and Class A common stock.

In connection with the change in presentation for the Public Shares, the Company revised its earnings per share calculation to allocate income and losses shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation differs from the previously presented method of earnings per share, which was similar to the two-class method.

The Company determined the changes were not qualitatively material to the Company’s previously issued financial statements and did not restate its financial statements. Instead, the Company revised its previously financial statements in Note 2 to its Q3 Form 10-Q. Although the qualitative factors that management assessed tended to support a conclusion that the misstatements were not material, these factors were not strong enough to overcome the significant quantitative errors in the financial statements. The qualitative and quantitative factors support a conclusion that the misstatements are material on a quantitative basis. Management concluded that the misstatement was such of magnitude that it is probable that the judgment of a reasonable person relying upon the financial statements would have been influenced by the inclusion or correction of the foregoing items. As such, upon further consideration of the change, the Company determined the change in classification of the Public Shares and change to its presentation of earnings per share is material quantitatively and it should restate its previously issued financial statements.

Therefore, on December 6, 2021, the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management, that the Company’s previously issued (i) audited balance sheet as of October 16, 2020 (the “Post IPO Balance Sheet”); (ii) audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period from August 31, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 17, 2021 (“2020 Form 10-K”); (iii) unaudited condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021; (iv) unaudited condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 11, 2021; and (v) Note 2 to the unaudited condensed financial statements included in the Q3 Form 10-Q (collectively, the “Affected Periods”), should be restated to report all Public Shares as temporary equity and restate earnings per share and should no longer be relied upon. As such, the Company restated its financial statements for the Affected Periods in a Form 10-K/A for the Post IPO Balance Sheet and the Company’s audited financial statements included in the 2020 Form 10-K, and the unaudited condensed financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.

The Company does not expect any of the above changes will have any impact on its cash position and cash held in the trust account established in connection with the IPO.

After re-evaluation, the Company’s management has concluded that in light of the errors described above, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Affected Periods and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the Affected Periods or September 30, 2021. The Company’s remediation plan with respect to such material weakness is described in more detail in Item 4 to Part 1 of this filing.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, or this Quarterly Report, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance, and any other statements of a future or forward-looking nature, constitute “forward-looking statements” for the purpose of the federal securities laws. Our forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this report may include, for example, statements about:

● our ability to complete our initial business combination;

● our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers, key employees or directors following our initial business combination;

● our officers and directors allocating their time to other businesses and potentially having conflicts of interest with our business or in approving our initial business combination, as a result of which they would then receive expense reimbursements;

● our potential ability to obtain additional financing to complete our initial business combination;

● our pool of prospective target businesses;

● the ability of our officers and directors to generate a number of potential investment opportunities;

● the ability to have our securities continue to be listed on Nasdaq, including following a business combination;

● our public securities’ potential liquidity and trading;

● our ability to consummate an initial business combination despite the continued uncertainty resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic or the outbreak of other infectious diseases;

● the potential market for our securities; or

● our financial performance.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. Future developments affecting us may not be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

● We are a blank check company at an early stage with no operating history and no revenues, and our stockholders have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective.

● Past performance by 5AM Venture Management, LLC, or 5AM, including our management team, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us.

● Because we intend to seek a business combination with a target business in the healthcare industry, we expect our future operations to be subject to risks associated with the healthcare industry.

iv

● The requirement that the target business or businesses that we acquire must satisfy the 80% of net assets test at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial business combination may limit the type and number of companies with which we may complete such a business combination.

● The holders of our public shares, or our public stockholders, may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed business combination, which means we may consummate our initial business combination even though a majority of our public stockholders do not support such a combination.

● If we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, our sponsor, directors and officers have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, regardless of how our public stockholders vote.

● The only opportunity for our stockholders to affect the investment decision regarding a potential business combination may be limited to the exercise of their rights to redeem their shares from us for cash unless we seek stockholder approval of such business combination.

● The ability of our public stockholders to redeem their shares for cash may make our financial condition unattractive to potential business combination targets, which may make it difficult for us to enter into our initial business combination with a target.

● We may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within the required time period, in which case we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our public shares and liquidate, in which case our public stockholders may receive only $10.00 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances.

● Management’s flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective acquisition candidate, along with our management’s financial interest in consummating our initial business combination, may lead management to enter into an acquisition agreement that is not in the best interests of our stockholders.

● Our executive officers and directors will allocate their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our affairs. This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination.

Additional discussion of the risks, uncertainties and other factors described above, as well as other risks and uncertainties material to our business, can be found under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 17, 2021, and we encourage you to refer to that additional discussion. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Further, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward- looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements as predictions of future results. Our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations

5:01 Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on August 31, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company’s entire activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments held in trust from the proceeds of its Initial Public Offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and Private Placement (as defined below).

The Company’s sponsor is 5:01 Acquisition LLC, an entity affiliated with two of the Company’s directors (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective October 13, 2020. On October 16, 2020, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock (each, a “Public Share” and collectively, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $80.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $4.9 million, inclusive of $2.8 million in deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 5). The underwriter was granted a 45-day option from the date of the final prospectus relating to the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares to cover over-allotments, if any, at $10.00 per share. The underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option and on November 12, 2020 purchased an additional 256,273 shares of Class A common stock (the “Additional Shares”), generating gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million, and incurred additional offering costs of approximately $141,000 in underwriting fees (inclusive of approximately $90,000 in deferred underwriting fees) (the “Over-Allotment”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 360,000 shares of Class A common stock (each, a “Private Placement Share” and collectively, the “Private Placement Shares”), at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of $3.6 million (see Note 4). Simultaneously with the closing of the Over-Allotment on November 12, 2020, the Company consummated the second closing of the Private Placement, resulting in the purchase of an aggregate of an additional 5,126 Private Placement Shares by the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $51,000.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement and the Over-Allotment, approximately $82.6 million ($10.00 per share) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and of the Private Placement Shares in the Private Placement and Over-Allotment were placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States, and invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes and bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account.

In addition, the Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 300,000 Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares”) to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. The underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option on November 12, 2020; thus, on November 30, 2020, the Sponsor forfeited 235,932 shares of Class B common stock.

501 ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in trust and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the Company’s outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 5). These Public Shares have been recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”).

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. The Company will not redeem the Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Initial Stockholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors (the “Initial Stockholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or October 16, 2022 (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares (including any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering or any Public Shares or shares that the initial stockholders or their affiliates purchased in the Initial Public Offering or later acquired in the open market or in private transactions), which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of common stock and the board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Company’s obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law.

The Initial Stockholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.00. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement (a “Target”), reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or Target that executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (as restated)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or any future period.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on December 9, 2021, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The financial information as of December 31, 2020, is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report as amended on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on December 9, 2021. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021, or for any future interim periods.

Liquidity, Capital resources and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $650,000 in cash and working capital of approximately $524,000.

501 ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

The Company’s liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through a capital contribution of $20,000 from the Sponsor to purchase the Founder Shares (as defined below), the loan under the Note (as defined in Note 4) of $300,000 (see Note 4), and the net proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. The Company fully repaid the Note on October 16, 2020. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s officers, directors and initial stockholders may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 4). As of September 30, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

The Company incurred and expects to incur additional significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans including the proposed Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements–Going Concern,” the Company has until October 12, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after October 16, 2022.

Restatement to previously reported financial statements

In the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 10, 2021, the Company concluded it should restate its previously issued financial statements to classify all Public Shares and Additional Shares in temporary equity. In accordance with FASB ASC 480-10-S99, “Accounting for Redeemable Equity Instrument”, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. The Company had previously classified a portion of its Public Shares and Additional Shares in permanent equity. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter currently provides that the Company will not redeem its Public Shares and Additional Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. Previously, the Company did not consider redeemable shares classified as temporary equity as part of net tangible assets. Effective with these condensed financial statements, the Company revised this interpretation to include temporary equity in net tangible assets. In connection with the change in presentation for the Public Shares and Additional Shares, the Company restated its earnings per share calculation to allocate income and losses shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of shares participate pro rata in the income and losses of the Company.

In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” the Company evaluated the corrections and has determined that the related impact was material to the previously filed financial statements that contained the error, reported in the Company’s Form 10-Qs for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 (the “Affected Quarterly Periods”). Therefore, the Company, in consultation with its Audit Committee, concluded that the Affected Quarterly Periods should be restated to present all Public Shares and Additional Shares as temporary equity and to recognize accretion from the initial book value to redemption value at the time of its Initial Public Offering and closing of the Over-Allotment. As such, the Company is reporting these restatements to those periods in this quarterly report.

The restatement does not have an impact on the Company’s cash position and balance of the Trust Account.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

10

501 ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company held no cash equivalents outside the Trust Account.

Investments Held in Trust Account

The Company’s portfolio of investments held in trust is comprised solely of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these investments in interest income held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000, and investments held in Trust Account. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.

11

501 ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting commissions and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs associated with the Class A common stock are charged against the carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption. The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity (deficit). As part of the Private Placement, the Company issued 365,126 shares of Class A common stock to the Sponsor. These Private Placement Shares will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination, as such are considered non-redeemable and presented as permanent equity in the Company’s condensed balance sheet. The Company’s Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 8,256,273 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity (deficit) section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering (including the sale of Additional Shares), the Company recognized the remeasurement of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

Income Taxes

The Company’s taxable income primarily consists of interest income on the Trust Account. The Company’s general and administrative expenses are generally considered start-up costs and are not currently deductible. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense for the period was deemed to be immaterial.

12

501 ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (as restated)

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $152,000 and $44,000, respectively, which are presented net of a full valuation allowance.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the unaudited condensed financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company’s currently taxable income primarily consists of interest and dividends earned and unrealized gains on investments held in the Trust Account. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of September 30, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock

The Company has two classes of shares, Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the periods. Accretion associated with the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock:

Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Underwriters partially exercised the Over-Allotment option and on November 12, 2020 purchased an additional 256,273 shares of Class A common stock (the “Additional Shares”), generating gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million, and incurred additional offering costs of approximately $141,000 in underwriting fees (inclusive of approximately $90,000 in deferred underwriting fees).

Note 4—Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On September 2, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s initial common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for an aggregate price of $20,000. On October 7, 2020, the Company filed its Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Delaware and reclassified the 2,300,000 shares of initial common stock into 2,300,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares”). The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 300,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the Over-Allotment option is not exercised in full by the underwriters. The underwriters partially exercised their Over-Allotment option on November 12, 2020. On November 30, 2020, the remaining 235,932 Founder Shares subject to forfeiture were forfeited. In October and November 2020, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 120,000 Founder Shares to the four independent directors when they joined the board of directors and in December, amended the terms of such transfer to clarify that such shares remain subject to forfeiture through completion of the Business Combination and expiration of any related lock-up period, subject to acceleration of vesting in certain circumstances. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 2,064,068 shares outstanding.

Private Placement Shares

Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 360,000 Private Placement Shares, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of $3.6 million. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Shares was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. Simultaneously with the closing of the Over-Allotment on November 12, 2020, the Company consummated the second closing of the Private Placement, resulting in the purchase of an aggregate of an additional 5,126 Private Placement Shares by the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $51,000.

Pursuant to the letter agreement, the Initial Stockholders agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares or Private Placement Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of the Public Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares will be released from the lock-up.

Related Party Loans

On September 17, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This promissory note did not bear interest and was payable upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The Company fully borrowed the $300,000 Note and fully repaid the Note on October 16, 2020. Subsequent to the repayment, the facility was no longer available to the Company.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with searching for a target business or consummating an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Such loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The promissory notes would be paid upon consummation of

the initial Business Combination, without interest. The terms of each promissory note may also provide that a portion of the principal amount of such loan may be repaid by conversion into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock upon completion of the initial Business Combination. 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. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

Note 5—Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and stockholder rights agreement. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that the Company registers such securities, subject to specified conditions. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. However, the registration and stockholder rights agreement will provide that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per share, or $1.7 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and partial exercise of the over-allotment option. In addition, $0.35 per share, or $2.9 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus and its variants could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, or this Quarterly Report. This discussion and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC on March 17, 2021.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on August 31, 2020 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as the initial business combination. We are not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a business combination. We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. Our sponsor is 5:01 Acquisition LLC, an entity affiliated with two of our directors.

The registration statement for our initial public offering, or IPO, was declared effective October 13, 2020 and on October 16, 2020, we issued 8,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock (each, a public share and collectively, the public shares) in our IPO at $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $80.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $4.9 million, inclusive of $2.8 million in deferred underwriting commissions. The underwriter was granted a 45-day option from the date of the final prospectus relating to the IPO to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares to cover over-allotments, if any, at $10.00 per share. The underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option and on November 12, 2020 purchased an additional 256,273 shares of Class A common stock , generating gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million, and incurred additional offering costs of approximately $141,000 in underwriting fees (inclusive of approximately $90,000 in deferred underwriting fees).

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the private placement of 360,000 shares of Class A common stock (each, a private placement share and collectively, the private placement shares), at a price of $10.00 per share to our sponsor, generating proceeds of $3.6 million. Simultaneously with the closing of the underwriters’ over-allotment on November 12, 2020, we consummated the second closing of the private placement, resulting in the purchase of an aggregate of an additional 5,126 private placement shares by our sponsor, generating gross proceeds to us of approximately $51,000.

Upon the closing of the IPO, the private placement and the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment, approximately $82.6 million ($10.00 per share) of the net proceeds of the sale of the public shares in the IPO and of the private placement shares in the private placement and to the underwriters’ upon partial exercise of the over-allotment option were placed in a trust account located in the United States, and invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes and bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a business combination and (ii) the distribution of the trust account.

In addition, our Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 300,000 Class B common stock, par value $0.0001, or the founder shares to the extent that the overallotment option is not exercised in full by the underwriters. The underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option on November 12, 2020; thus, on November 30, 2020, the remaining 235,932 shares of Class B common stock subject to forfeiture were forfeited.

If we are unable to complete a business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, or October 16, 2022 (or the Combination Period), we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares (including any public shares sold in the IPO or any public shares or shares that the initial stockholders or their affiliates purchased in the IPO or later acquired in the open market or in private transactions), which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of common stock and the board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of our company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to our obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law.

Risks and Uncertainties

The full long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows will depend on future developments, including the duration and subsequent waves, including due to variants of the virus, of the pandemic and related advisories and restrictions. These developments and the long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the financial markets and the overall economy are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, our results of operations, financial position and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. Additionally, our ability to complete an initial business combination, may be materially adversely affected due to significant governmental measures being implemented to contain the COVID-19 pandemic or treat its impact, including travel restrictions, the shutdown of businesses and quarantines, among others, which may limit our ability to have meetings with potential investors or affect the ability of a potential target company’s personnel, vendors and service providers to negotiate and consummate an initial business combination in a timely manner. Our ability to consummate an initial business combination may also be dependent on the ability to raise additional equity and debt financing, which may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting market downturn.

Results of Operations

Since August 31, 2020 (inception), our entire activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial business combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of investment income from our investments held in the trust account. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $246,000 which consisted of approximately $198,000 of general and administrative expenses and approximately $50,000 of franchise tax expense, offset by approximately $1,000 of interest income from investments held in the trust account.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $726,000, which consisted of approximately $587,000 in general and administrative expenses and approximately $148,000 in franchise tax expense, offset by approximately $9,000 of interest income from investments held in the trust account.

For the period from August 31, 2020 (inception) through September 30, 2020, we had a net loss of approximately $18,000, which consisted of approximately $1,000 in general and administrative expenses and approximately $17,000 franchise tax expense.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $650,000 in cash held outside of the trust account and working capital of approximately $524,000.

Our liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through a capital contribution of $20,000 from our sponsor to purchase the founder shares, the loan under a promissory note of $300,000, which was repaid in full on October 16, 2020, and the net proceeds from the consummation of the private placement not held in the trust account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, our officers, directors and initial stockholders may, but are not obligated to, provide working capital. As of September 30, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any working capital loans.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after October 16, 2022. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Contractual Obligations

Registration Rights

The holders of founder shares and private placement shares are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and stockholder rights agreement. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that we register such securities, subject to specified conditions. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. However, the registration and stockholder rights agreement will provide that we will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per share, or $1.7 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the IPO and partial exercise of the over-allotment option. In addition, $0.35 per share, or $2.9 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that we complete a business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. See Note 2 to the unaudited condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Our management does not believe that there are any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, that if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

JOBS Act

The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the unaudited condensed financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our IPO or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021, because of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Specifically, the Company’s management has concluded that our control around the interpretation and accounting for certain complex features of the Class A common stock issued by the Company was not effectively designed or maintained. This material weakness resulted in the restatement of the Company’s balance sheet as of October 16, 2020, its annual financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2020 and its interim financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Additionally, this material weakness could result in a misstatement of the Class A common stock and related accounts and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of the financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting except for the below.

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer performed additional accounting and financial analyses and other post-closing procedures including consulting with subject matter experts related to the accounting for certain complex features of the Class A common stock. The Company’s management has expended, and will continue to expend, a substantial amount of effort and resources for the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have processes to properly identify and evaluate the appropriate accounting technical pronouncements and other literature for all significant or unusual transactions, we have expanded and will continue to improve these processes to ensure that the nuances of such transactions are effectively evaluated in the context of the increasingly complex accounting standards.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. We are currently not a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our material risk factors are disclosed in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC on March 17, 2021. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in such filing.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities

On October 16, 2020, we consummated the IPO of 8,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock. The Class A common stock was sold at a price of $10.00 per share, generating total gross proceeds of $80.0 million. BofA Securities, Inc. acted as the sole book-running manager of the IPO. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-249036). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on October 13, 2020. Our shares of Class A common stock began trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “FVAM” on October 14, 2020.

We granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,200,000 shares of Class A common stock at the IPO price of $10.00 per share, less applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 12, 2020, the over-allotment option was exercised as to 256,273 shares for gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million. Upon exercise of the over-allotment option as to 256,273 shares, our sponsor purchased an additional 5,126 private placement shares at a price of $10.00 per share.

A total of approximately $82.6 million, comprised of net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $80.9 million and approximately $1.7 million of the net proceeds from the sale of shares in a concurrent private placement of Class A common stock, were placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the trust account that may be released to us to pay income taxes, the proceeds will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of: (1) the completion of an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, (2) our redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) that would modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (3) our redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if we have not completed a business combination in such required time period.

We paid a total of approximately $1.7 million in underwriting discounts and commissions and approximately $0.5 million for other costs and expenses related to the IPO. In addition, the underwriter agreed to defer approximately $2.9 million in underwriting discounts and commissions.

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our IPO, see Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report.
