Item 4.

Ownership.

 

The information required by Items 4(a) - (c) is set forth in Rows (5) - (11) of the cover page for each Reporting Person and is incorporated herein by reference for each Reporting Person.

 

The Sponsor holds 2,798,500 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”), directly and 937,500 shares of Class B Common Stock indirectly through its subsidiary, SAMA Sponsor II Subsidiary, LLC (the “Sponsor Subsidiary”), as managing member of the Sponsor Subsidiary. All such shares of Class B Common Stock are held indirectly by Mr. Schultze who controls both Schultze Asset Management, LP, the manager of the Sponsor, and Schultze Master Fund, Ltd, the majority owner of the Sponsor. Mr. Schultze disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. The Sponsor also disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held by the Sponsor Subsidiary except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.

 

The shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the Issuer’s initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Issuer’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-254018) and have no expiration date.

 

The securities described above represent in the aggregate approximately 18.5% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, calculated based upon 16,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of November 9, 2021, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2021, adjusted for the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the Sponsor and the Sponsor Subsidiary.

 

Item 5.

Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.

 

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following ☐.

Item 6.

Ownership of More Than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person.

 

Certain members of the Sponsor Subsidiary have the right to receive dividends, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Class B Common Stock (including the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares of Class B Common Stock) held by the Sponsor Subsidiary. No such interest individually relates to more than five percent of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (calculated as set forth in Item 4).
