On November 18, 2020, the Sponsor contributed an aggregate of 2,875,000 Founder Shares to the Company’s capital for no consideration resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 14,375,000 Founder Shares, including 1,875,000 Founder Shares that were subject to forfeiture for no consideration to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part. On January 26, 2021, the underwriter exercised the full over-allotment option and therefore the 1,875,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture. Private Placement Warrants Substantially concurrent with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 10,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant ($15,000,000 in the aggregate). The difference between these proceeds and the $17,500,000 fair value of the Private Placement Warrants at the IPO date was recorded to realized and unrealized gains (losses), net in the condensed statements of operations. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Series A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the purchase price of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. Forward Purchase Agreement The Company entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement under which the Sponsor (the “Forward Purchaser’’) obtained the right to acquire 25,000,000 forward purchase units (each, a “Forward Purchase Unit’’) for $250,000,000, in the aggregate, in connection with the Company's initial business combination. Each Forward Purchase Unit will consist of one share of Series B common stock (the “Forward Purchase Shares”), and one-fifth of one warrant to purchase one share of Series A common stock (the “Forward Purchase Warrants”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Forward Purchase Unit, and will be sold in a private placement that will close substantially concurrent with the closing of the Company’s initial business combination. The terms of the Forward Purchase Warrants will generally be identical to the terms of the Public Warrants included in the units issued in the IPO. In addition, the Forward Purchaser has reserved the right to provide incremental funding to the Company in connection with the Company’s initial business combination by purchasing additional shares of Series B common stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, which shares would be sold in a private placement substantially concurrent with the closing of the initial business combination. An investor rights agreement whose terms are incorporated in the Forward Purchase Agreement also provides that the Sponsor is entitled to registration rights with respect to the Forward Purchase Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Forward Purchase Warrants or upon conversion of the Series B common stock. In addition, the investor rights agreement provides that upon certain issuances of equity securities by the Company (other than issuances due to the exercise of warrants) (each such issuance, a “Triggering Event”), the Sponsor has certain contractual preemptive rights which are intended to allow the Sponsor to maintain its percentage ownership interest in the Company’s common stock and voting stock. Services Agreement and Facilities Sharing Agreement The Company entered into agreements that require the Company to pay Liberty Media Corporation (“LMC”) and certain of its subsidiaries a total of $91,666 per month for office space, administrative and support services. In addition, each independent director receives annual cash compensation of $75,000. The Sponsor, officers and directors of the Company, and LMC and its subsidiaries will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable initial business combinations. Promissory Note and Related Party Loans On November 6, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2021 and the completion of the IPO. On January 26, 2021, the outstanding balance on the Note of $169,933 was fully repaid. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor, LMC and its subsidiaries or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (as amended and restated, “Working Capital Loan”). If the Company completes an initial business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loan out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loan would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that an initial business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loan, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loan. The Working Capital Loan would either be repaid upon consummation of an initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $2,500,000 of such Working Capital Loan 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. On April 15, 2021, the Company put in place a Working Capital Loan of $2,500,000 with the Sponsor. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company and the Sponsor amended the Working Capital Loan to increase the aggregate principal to $4,000,000. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had borrowed $3,300,000 under the Working Capital Loan. The Company concluded that the Working Capital Loan is a debt host with a conversion feature which is considered a financial instrument required to be bifurcated. The conversion feature will be measured at fair value (Level 2) each period with the change in fair value recorded through the realized and unrealized (gains) losses, net line item in the accompanying statements of operations. The debt balance will be accreted up to its par value using the effective interest rate method from the initial borrowing date to expected maturity. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 related entirely to the amortization of the discount. As of September 30, 2022, discount was fully amortized. The maturity date is the expected date of the initial business combination and therefore the conversion feature liability and the debt have been classified as current as of September 30, 2022. The conversion feature has been included in the other current liabilities line item in the accompanying condensed balance sheet.
