NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Founder Shares

 

On December 17, 2021, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase 8,625,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) for a subscription price of $25,000. Such subscription receivable was paid in full on March 9, 2022. On May 8, 2023, the Sponsor surrendered an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares of its Class B common stock for no consideration, which were cancelled, resulting in the Initial Stockholders holding an aggregate of 2,875,000 Founder Shares. The Initial Stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 375,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. The forfeiture was to be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters so that the Founder Shares would represent 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the IPO (excluding the Representative Shares). If the Company increased or decreased the size of the offering, the Company would effect a stock dividend or share contribution back to capital, as applicable, immediately prior to the consummation of the IPO in such amount as to maintain the Founder Share ownership of the Company’s stockholders prior to the IPO at 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock upon the consummation of the IPO (excluding the Representative Shares, as defined below). On June 16, 2023, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full as part of the initial closing of the IPO. As such, the 375,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

 

The Initial Stockholders will agree not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after the Initial Business Combination that results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-Up”).

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-Up.

Promissory Note to Sponsor

 

On December 17, 2021 and as amended on May 9, 2023, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $300,000 pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due upon the earlier of (x) June 30, 2023 (as amended), and (y) the closing of the IPO. The outstanding balance of $249,560 was repaid at the closing of the IPO on June 16, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, this facility is no longer available.

 

Due from Sponsor

 

At the closing of the IPO on June 16, 2023, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants in the amount of $45,440 was due to the Company to be held outside of the Trust Account for working capital purposes. On June 21, 2023, the Sponsor paid the Company an amount of $30,292 to partially settle the outstanding balance. In July 2023, the Sponsor paid $13,712 expense reimbursements on behalf of the Company. In October and December 2023, the Company paid a total of $24,360 of Sponsor’s expenses on behalf of the Sponsor. As of December 31, 2023, the Sponsor owes the Company an outstanding amount of $25,796.

 

Working Capital Loan

 

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with our Initial 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 (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes our Initial Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that our Initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of our Initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Initial Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

 

Administrative Services Agreement

 

The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on June 13, 2023 through the earlier of consummation of the Initialbusiness Combination and the Company’s liquidation, to reimburse an affiliate of the Company’s officers $5,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services.

 

In addition, the Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential partner businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Initial Business Combinations. Any such payments prior to an Initial Business Combination will be made using funds held outside the Trust Account.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred and paid $32,795 in fees for these services. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not incur any such fees for these services.
