In connection with the decision of the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) not to exercise their over-allotment option on August 4, 2021, on August 5, 2021 the Sponsor forfeited 701,250 Founder Shares, Christopher Wolfe forfeited 18,750 Founder Shares, and Section 32 Fund 3, LP forfeited 30,000 Founder Shares, resulting in the Sponsor holding 4,465,000 Founder Shares. These forfeitures were not within each of these parties’ control as they occurred exclusively due to the underwriters’ decision not to exercise the over-allotment option, were for no consideration, and occurred shortly after the Company filed the final statutory prospectus for the IPO disclosing all material information about the Company and the IPO.

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on the first business day following the consummation of the Issuer’s initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in connection with the Issuer’s initial business combination, the ratio at which the Founder Shares will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Founder Shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A Common Stock by public stockholders), including all shares of Class A Common Stock issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued by the Issuer in connection with or in relation to the consummation of its initial business combination, excluding any shares of Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Common Stock issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any warrants issued upon conversion of working capital loans, provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

Public Units

On July 26, 2021, Deerfield Partners, ARCH Venture Fund XI, L.P. and Section 32 Fund 3, LP, the managing members of the Sponsor, agreed, pursuant to a letter agreement (the “IPO Share Purchase Letter Agreement”), to purchase Class A Common Stock of the Issuer, up to a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in the aggregate for all three managing members. On July 30, 2021, AVF purchased 1,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer for $10.00 per share, or $16,000,000 in the aggregate, in the Issuer’s IPO.

The foregoing description of the IPO Share Purchase Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the IPO Share Purchase Letter Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.

Private Placement Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement

On July 30, 2021, the Sponsor purchased from the Issuer an aggregate of 650,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Private Placement Shares”) pursuant to the terms of a private placement class A common stock purchase agreement, dated as of July 27, 2021 (the “Private Placement Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement”). Each Private Placement Share is comprised of one share of Class A Common Stock. Other than the lock-up provisions contained in the Letter Agreement (defined below), the Private Placement Shares have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Class A Common Stock sold in the Issuer’s IPO.

The foregoing description of the Private Placement Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Private Placement Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.


Letter Agreement

On July 27, 2021, the Sponsor agreed, pursuant to a letter agreement with the Issuer (the “Letter Agreement”), to (i) waive its redemption rights with respect to Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any other shares of Class A Common Stock they then own in connection with the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any other shares of Class A Common Stock they then own in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Issuer’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Class A Common Stock if the Issuer has not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its IPO and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Issuer fails to complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its IPO (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any other shares of Class A Common Stock they hold if the Issuer fails to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame). If the Issuer submits its initial business combination to its stockholders for a vote, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any other shares of Class A Common Stock they then own in favor of the initial business combination.

The Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof are each subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to lock-up provisions in the Letter Agreement. Those lock-up provisions provide that such securities are not transferable or salable (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination or (B) subsequent to the initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of the 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 150 days after the initial business combination, or (y) the date on which the Issuer completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Issuer’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property, and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Shares until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination, except in each case (a) to the Issuer’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Issuer’s officers or directors, any members of the Sponsor, or any affiliates of the Sponsor, (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of one of the members of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of one of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of an initial business combination at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Issuer’s liquidation prior to the completion of our initial business combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (h) in the event of our liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Issuer’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to our completion of the initial business combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or (g) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions and the other restrictions contained in the Letter Agreement and by the same agreements entered into by the Sponsor with respect to such securities (including provisions relating to voting, the trust account and liquidation distributions described elsewhere in this prospectus). In addition, the Private Placement Shares may not be sold transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statement or commencement of sales of the public offering, except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their bona fide officers or partners, provided that all securities so transferred remain subject to the lockup restriction above for the remainder of the time period.

In addition, the Letter Agreement provides that in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate may, but is not obligated to, loan to the Issuer funds as may be required on a non-interest basis. If the Issuer completes an initial business combination, the Issuer would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, the Issuer may use a portion of the working capital held outside its trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from its trust


account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock of the post business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per share at the option of the lender. The shares of Class A Common Stock would be identical to the Private Placement Shares. Except as set forth above, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Letter Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.

Registration Rights Agreement

On July 27, 2021, the Issuer, the Sponsor and other holders signatory thereto entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer granted the Sponsor and other holders registration rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and securities that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans. The Sponsor and other holders of such securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Issuer register such securities for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In addition, these holders have “piggy-back” registration rights to include such securities in other registration statements filed by the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sponsor and other holders of such securities may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five and seven years, respectively, after the effective date of the Registration Statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.
