   1.                                                   We note that you are
offering 15,000,000 shares of common stock as part of your initial
                                                        public offering of
units, but only show 14,644,791 shares subject to possible redemption
                                                        in your Capitalization
table. Please tell us how you considered the guidance in ASC 480-
                                                        10-S99-3A, which
requires securities that are redeemable for cash or other assets to be
                                                        classified outside of
permanent equity if they are redeemable (1) at a fixed or
                                                        determinable price on a
fixed or determinable date, (2) at the option of the holder, or (3)
                                                        upon the occurrence of
an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer, in
                                                        concluding that all
15,000,000 shares were not required to be presented outside of
                                                        permanent equity and
part of shares subject to possible redemption.
