Item 3.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

In connection with the organization of the Issuer, on February 18, 2021, 7,666,667 Class B Ordinary Shares (the Founder Shares) were purchased by the Sponsor for the amount of $25,000, pursuant to a Securities Subscription Agreement, dated February 18, 2021, between the Sponsor and the Issuer (the Subscription Agreement), as more fully described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D which information is incorporated herein by reference. On August 13, 2021, the Sponsor sold an aggregate of 1,333,327 Founder Shares to certain investors in the Issuers initial public offering (IPO) at their original purchase price.

On August 13, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the Issuers IPO, the Sponsor purchased 455,000 units (Placement Units) of the Issuer at $10.00 per Placement Unit, pursuant to a Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement, dated August 10, 2021, by and between the Issuer and the Sponsor (the Units Purchase Agreement), as more fully described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which information is incorporated herein by reference. Each Placement Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of a business combination, and one-third of one warrant (the Private Placement Warrants), each whole warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (as described more fully in the Issuers Final Prospectus dated August 10, 2021).

On October 19, 2021, 1,000,000 Founder Shares were automatically surrendered for no consideration by the Sponsor pursuant to contractual arrangements under the Subscription Agreement with the Issuer, triggered by the expiration of the over-allotment option of the underwriter of the Issuers IPO to purchase additional units.

The Ordinary Shares owned by the Reporting Persons have been acquired for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons may make further acquisitions of the Ordinary Shares from time to time and, subject to certain restrictions, may dispose of any or all of the Ordinary Shares held by the Reporting Persons at any time depending on an ongoing evaluation of the investment in such securities, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors. However, certain of such shares are subject to certain lock-up restrictions as further described in Item 6 below.

Except for the foregoing, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) and (c) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons have acquired the shares reported herein for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuers financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Issuers ordinary shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons and their representatives may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, engaging in communications with members of the Issuers board of directors, members of the Issuers management and/or other shareholders of the Issuer from time to time with respect to potential business combination opportunities and operational, strategic, financial or governance matters, or otherwise work with management and the Issuers board of directors to identify, evaluate, structure, negotiate, execute or otherwise facilitate a business combination, purchasing additional shares and/or warrants, selling some or all of its ordinary shares and/or warrants, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the ordinary shares, including swaps and other derivative instruments, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4. Among other things, the Reporting Persons may introduce the Issuer to potential candidates for a business combination, or propose one or more business combinations with potential candidates, which may include candidates that are affiliates of one or more Reporting Persons or in which one or more Reporting Persons otherwise has an equity or other interest. The Reporting Persons may purchase the Issuers ordinary shares and/or warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to, in connection with or following the completion of the Issuers initial business combination. The purpose of any such purchases of shares could be to vote such shares in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining shareholder approval of the business combination or to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires the Issuer to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of the Issuers initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of any such purchases of warrants could be to reduce the number of warrants outstanding or to vote such warrants on any matters submitted to the warrant holders for approval in connection with the Issuers initial business combination. Any such purchases of the Issuers securities may result in the completion of the initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible.

With respect to paragraph (b) of Item 4, the Issuer is a newly organized blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Under various agreements between the Issuer and the Reporting Persons as further described in Item 6 below, the Reporting Persons have each agreed (A) to vote its shares in favor of any proposed business combination and (B) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote (or tender offer) to approve (or in connection with) a proposed initial business combination. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position, change their purpose or formulate plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer.

In connection with the organization of the Issuer, on February 18, 2021, 7,666,667 Founder Shares were purchased by the Sponsor for the amount of $25,000, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. The Subscription Agreement provided that up to 1,000,000 Founder Shares purchased by the Sponsor were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriter of the IPO did not exercise its overallotment option in full. On October 19, 2021, 1,000,000 Founder Shares were automatically surrendered for no consideration by the Sponsor in connection with the expiration of the underwriters overallotment option.

The description of the Subscription Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by the Issuer with the SEC on March 4, 2021 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1).

Units Purchase Agreement between the Issuer and Sponsor

On August 10, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased 455,000 Placement Units pursuant to the Units Purchase Agreement. The Placement Units and the securities underlying such Placement Units are subject to a lock up provision in the Units Purchase Agreement, which provides that such securities shall not be transferable, saleable or assignable until 30 days after the consummation of the Issuers initial business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions as described in the Insider Letter.

The description of the Units Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.4 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on August 13, 2021 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.2).

Insider Letter

On August 10, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into a letter agreement (the Insider Letter). Pursuant to the Insider Letter, the Sponsor agreed (A) to vote its Founder Shares, any Ordinary Shares underlying the Placement Units and any public shares in favor of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose an amendment to the Issuers Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would modify the substance or timing of the Issuers obligation to redeem the public shares if the Issuer does not consummate a business combination within 15 months from the completion of the initial public offering, unless the Issuer provides the holders of public shares with the opportunity to redeem such shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Issuers trust account set up in connection with the IPO (the Trust Account), (C) not to redeem any Founder Shares and any shares underlying the Placement Units into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Issuers proposed initial business combination or a vote to amend the provisions of the Issuers Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders rights or pre-business combination activity and (D) that the Founder Shares and any Ordinary Shares underlying the Placement Units shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if a business combination is not consummated. The Sponsor also agreed that in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account of the Issuer (as defined in the Insider Letter), it will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever which the Issuer may become subject as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Issuer for services rendered or products sold to or contracted for the Issuer, or by any target business with which the Issuer has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account; provided that such indemnity shall not apply if such vendor or prospective target business executes an agreement waiving any claims against the Trust Account.

The description of the Insider Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on August 13, 2021 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.3).

Registration Rights Agreement

On August 10, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Sponsor was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights, which will be subject to customary conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriter of an offering to limit the number of shares offered. The summary of such registration rights agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.3 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on August 13, 2021 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.4).
