​ Issuance of Z-Shares to American ​ On June 10, 2021, VAGL and American executed a subscription agreement by which American subscribed for 5,804 class Z-Shares of VAGL for total consideration of £0.06. Z-Shares refer to Z ordinary shares of £0.00001 par value that did not carry the right to receive distributions. If the Business Combination did not complete American would have retained 5,804 Z-Shares, carrying dividends and voting rights. The value of the shares can be used by reference to the pre-money valuation of the Company; adjusted for the actual share price as at June 10, 2021 ($9.93); reflecting the American shareholding percentage (3.96%); and a discount for lack of marketability. ​ Upon closing of the Business Combination, American exchanged 100% of its class Z-Shares for 6,125,000 common shares of the Company, subject to a four-year lock-up. ​ 50% of the common shares held by American are subject to a call option exercisable by the Company at a $18 per share exercise price; exercisable in two tranches until June 2025. ​ The value of these shares was derived as at June 10, 2021 using a Black-Scholes Model and based upon actual share price ($9.93). The following inputs were used: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Risk-free rate |  | 0.75 | %
Dividend yield |  | — | ​
Volatility |  | 75 | %
​ The lock up agreement was considered part of the same contract for the subscription of Z-Shares, with a discount for lack of marketability applied, and the call option considered. ​

​ A probability weighted calculation as at June 10, 2021 concluded that Business Combination was likely to be completed, giving a probability weighted valuation of £16,739 thousand, recognised as an expense and within share premium of VAGL. A valuation of £19,616 thousand would have been derived had the Black-Scholes Model used a volatility assumption of 50%, with reasonable changes in all other inputs having an immaterial impact. 7 Expenses by nature (continued) Capital reorganization The difference in the fair value of the shares issued by the Company over the value of the net monetary assets of the Broadstone represented a listing service, and the cost of the listing service was recognized as an expense upon consummation of the Business Combination Agreement. ​
