NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On January 21, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,875,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor in exchange for cash of $25,000. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriter’s overallotment is not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor will own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. On March 30, 2022, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full.

As a result of the underwriter’s election to exercise their over-allotment option on March 30, 2022, 375,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture as of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Sponsor has agreed not to, except to permitted transferees, transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 120 days after the Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on the date of the Initial Public Offering and until completion of the Company’s initial business combination or liquidation, the Company will make a payment of a monthly fee of $10,000 to the Sponsor for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support provided to the Company. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. Given the timing of the Company’s initial public offering, $60,000 has been recognized in connection with such services for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Related Party Loans and Reimbursements

Other than the payment of customary fees the Company may elect to make to members of its board of directors for director service, no compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid by the Company to the Sponsor or the Company’s executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the completion of a Business Combination. However, these individuals 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 business combinations. The Company’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor or the Company’s officers, directors or their affiliates.

In addition, 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 on a non-interest basis (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts. If a 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 its Trust account would be used for such repayment. The terms of such Working Capital Loans by the Sponsor or its affiliates, or the Company’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

Due to Sponsor

The Sponsor has paid expenses on behalf of the Company prior to the Company’s Initial Public Offering. This amount is not interest bearing and due on demand by the Sponsor. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $446,179 and $355,184 due to Sponsor, respectively.

Promissory Note – Related Party

The sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 in the aggregate, to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering. The loans will be non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of September 30, 2022 or the closing of the Initial Public Offering. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has not drawn down on the promissory note.
