Note 4—Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On September 3, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of 19,406,250 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, (the “Founder Shares”). On September 28, 2020, the Sponsor effected a surrender of 6,468,750 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration. On October 15, 2020, the Sponsor effected a surrender of 3,593,750 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration, resulting in a decrease in the total number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding to 9,343,750 shares. All shares and associated per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect all shares surrendered. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 1,218,750 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised in full by the
U
nderwriters, so that the Founder Shares will represent 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. The
U
nderwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option on November 25, 2020; thus, only 245,125 shares of Class B ordinary shares were forfeited in conjunction with the
U
nderwriters’ partial exercise of the over-allotment. The Sponsor transferred to four independent directors of the Company an aggregate of 35,000 Founder Shares each, for a total of 140,000 shares, in September 2020.
The Sponsor and the Company’s directors and executive officers 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 the initial Business Combination and (b) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Private Placement Warrants
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering on October 23, 2020, the Company completed the Private Placement of an aggregate of 5,666,667 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of $8.5 million. Simultaneously with the closing of the Over-Allotment on December 1, 2020, the Company consummated the second closing of the Private Placement, resulting in the purchase of an aggregate of an additional 519,267 Private Placement Warrants by the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $0.8 million.
Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants are added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants are
non-redeemable
by the Company and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, subject to limited exceptions.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Related Party Loans
On September 3, 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 loan is
non-interest
bearing and payable upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed approximately $237,000 under the Note. The Company repaid this Note in full on October 23, 2020, and borrowings are no longer available under the Note.
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 may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans may 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 the 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 $4.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any outstanding balance under the Working Capital Loans.
Administrative Services Agreement
On October 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For
each of
the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, the Company incurred approximately $30,000 for these services which is included in Administrative expenses — related party on the accompanying condensed statements of operations. There was approximately $150,000 and $120,000 in administrative services fees under the agreement included in the Due to Related Party balance as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
 
Cash Director Fee Program
On March 28, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a cash director fee program for independent directors. Under the program, the Company’s independent directors will be paid $60,000 per year, payable quarterly in arrears, beginning in the first quarter of 2022. As of March 31, 2022, $15,000 was charged to accrued expenses for cash director fees incurred during the period.
