NOTES TO CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Organization
and Business Operations
Organization
and General
Sports
Ventures Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on September 24, 2020. The
Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).
The
Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage
and emerging growth companies.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company
had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from September 24, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2022 relates to the
Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO” or “Initial Public Offering”), which is described
below and since the IPO, searching for a target to complete its Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues
until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest
income on investments in the Company’s Trust Account and recognizes changes in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities
as other income (expense).
The
Company’s sponsor is AKICV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).
Financing
The Registration Statement on
Form S-1 for the Company’s IPO, initially filed with the SEC (as defined below) on
October 9, 2020, as amended, was declared effective January 5, 2021 (File No. 333-249392)
(the “Registration Statement”). On January 8, 2021, the Company consummated its IPO
of 23,000,000 units (“Units”), including 3,000,000 Units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’
over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-third
of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Public Warrant”), with each Public Warrant entitling the
holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit,
generating gross proceeds to the Company of $230,000,000.
Simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Unit Subscription Agreement, the Company completed the private sale of 660,000 Units
(the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Units, generating
gross proceeds to the Company of $6,600,000. The Private Placement Units include 220,000 warrants to purchase an aggregate of 220,000 Class
A ordinary shares of the Company (the “Private Placement Warrants”). The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units
sold in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in Note 4. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. Each
Unit consists of one share of Class A ordinary shares, and one-third redeemable warrant to purchase one share of Class A
ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per whole share, generating gross proceeds of $6,600,000, which is described in Note 3.
Trust
Account
Following
the closing of the IPO on January 8, 2021, $230,000,000 (approximately $10.00 per Unit) from the net offering proceeds of the
sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”)
and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company
that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company.
Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes (less
up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds from this IPO and the Private Placement Units will not be released
from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public
shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation
and (iii) the redemption of all of its public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within 24 months
from the closing of this IPO, subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims
of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.
Initial
Business Combination
The
Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion
of the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination
or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business
Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The shareholders will be entitled to redeem
their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially approximately $10.00 per share,
plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations).
The
Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80%
of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (net of taxes payable) at the time of the signing an agreement to enter into a
Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or
acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target
sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that
the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The
Company will have until January 8, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company
is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will redeem 100% of the outstanding public
shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account
including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income
taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described in registration statement,
and then seek to dissolve and liquidate.
The
Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed
(i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of
the initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect
to their founder shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination by January 8, 2023 (although they will be entitled
to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial
Business Combination within the prescribed time frame).
The Sponsor has agreed that it
will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third-party (other than the Company’s independent auditors) for
services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction
agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public
share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets,
in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of
any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters
of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, The Sponsor will not
be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether the Sponsor
has sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company.
We have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations.
Liquidity, Capital Resources
and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2022, the Company
had cash outside the Trust Account of $25,734 available for working capital needs and a working capital deficit of $3,222,482. All
investments held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial Business Combination,
and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination, to pay tax obligations or to redeem ordinary shares. In order to finance transaction
costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s
officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5; see Note 5).
Until
consummation of its Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, and may use Working Capital
Loans (as defined in Note 5) from the Sponsor, the Company’s officers and directors, or their respective affiliates (which is described
in Note 5), for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target
businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents
and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating
the Business Combination.
If the Company’s estimates
of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating the Business Combination is less than the actual amount necessary to
do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the Business Combination. Moreover, the Company
will need to raise additional capital through loans from its Sponsor, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Sponsor, officers
or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional
capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to,
curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance
that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
In connection with the Company’s
assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as
a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-14”), the Company’s management has determined that its liquidity and the mandatory
liquidation and subsequent dissolution, should the Company be unable to complete a Business Combination, raises substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has until January 8, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination.
It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated
by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts
of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after January 8, 2023. Management continues to evaluate potential
Business Combination opportunities and will continue to do so.
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary
for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of the Company’s management,
the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2021 as filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The interim results for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December
31, 2022 or for any future periods.
Emerging Growth Company
The
Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting
requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being
required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions
from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute
payments not previously approved.
Further,
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting
standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not
have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards.
The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply
to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended
transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies,
the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised
standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging
growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because
of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Making
estimates requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate
of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which the Company’s
management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the
more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value
of the derivative warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly
the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Investments
Held in Trust Account
The
Company’s portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set
forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that
invest in U.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified
as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities is included in income from investments held in Trust Account
in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are
determined using available market information
Offering
Costs Associated with IPO
The Company complies with the
requirements of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A
— “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through
the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO. Offering costs amounted to $13,083,943 of which $658,002 were allocated
to the warrant liabilities and expensed immediately and $12,425,941 were charged to temporary equity upon completion of the IPO and
the exercise of the over-allotment option.
Class
A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480. “Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity” (“ASC 480”), Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory
redemption (if any) is classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares
(including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption
upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other
times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ deficit. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain
redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.
Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 23,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption
are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed
balance sheets.
The
Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares
to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period.
At
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the condensed balance sheets
is reconciled in the following table:

Income Taxes
ASC
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than
not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized
tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June
30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments,
accruals or material deviation from its position.
The
Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not
subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary
Share
The
Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are
shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The 7,886,667 potential ordinary shares for outstanding warrants to purchase
the Company’s shares were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 because
the warrants are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary
share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented. The table below presents a reconciliation of
the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for each class of ordinary shares:

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities (excluding the warrant liability), which qualify as financial instruments under
the FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed
balance sheets primarily due to their short-term nature.
Derivative
Warrant Liabilities
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded
derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The Company’s derivative
instruments are recorded at fair value as of the IPO (January 8, 2021) and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair
value reported in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the condensed
balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required
within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The Company has determined the warrants are a derivative instrument. As the warrants meet
the definition of a derivative, the warrants are measured at fair value at issuance and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC
Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the unaudited condensed statements of operations in the period
of change. In accordance with ASC Topic 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, the Company has concluded that a portion of the transaction
costs which directly related to the IPO and the Private Placement should be allocated to the Warrants based on their relative fair value
against total proceeds, and recognized as transaction costs in the unaudited condensed statements of operations.
Fair
Value Measurements
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
| ● | Level
1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; |
| ● | Level
2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices
for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and |
| ● | Level
3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions,
such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The
Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted
would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Risks and Uncertainties
The
Company’s management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war on the industry and has concluded
that while it is reasonably possible that the virus and war could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results
of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited
condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
The
Company’s results of operations and ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors
that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The
Company’s business could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases
in oil prices, inflation, increases in interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, the ongoing
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and geopolitical instability, such as the military
conflict in the Ukraine. The Company cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration
or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact our business and the Company’s ability to complete an initial Business
Combination.
NOTE 3 — INITIAL
PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant
to the IPO, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’
over-allotment option in full, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one
redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment. Only whole warrants are exercisable. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only
whole warrants will trade. The warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the initial Business
Combination or January 8, 2022 and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption
or liquidation. (See Note 9)
All
of the 23,000,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for
the redemption of such public shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer
in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles
of Association. In accordance with GAAP, which has been codified in ASC Topic 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the
control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
If it is probable that the equity
instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the
date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption
date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the
instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately
as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount
value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated
deficit.
NOTE
4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 660,000 Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per
Private Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,600,000. A portion of the purchase price of the Private Placement Units
were added to the proceeds from the IPO held in the Trust Account.
Each
Private Placement Unit was identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except for the Class A shares in these units which are non-redeemable
and the Private Placement Warrants (see Note 9). If the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination by January 8, 2023,
the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of its public
shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
NOTE 5 — RELATED
PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
In
October 2020, the Company issued 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares to the Sponsor for $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per
share. Up to 750,000 shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s
over-allotment option is exercised. In connection with the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option on January
8, 2021, the 750,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The
Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their founder shares until the earliest of (a) one year after the completion

or liquidation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $30,000 and $60,000 expenses, respectively, in
administrative service fee expense in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,

statements of operations. Amounts due for the administrative service fee are included in due to related parties on the unaudited condensed
balance sheets. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company owed $60,000 and $118,387 for the administrative service fee, respectively.
Promissory
Note — Related Party
On
October 5, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate
principal amount of $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of this IPO. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and
due at the earlier of September 30, 2021 or the closing of this IPO. The promissory note of $204,123 was repaid upon closing of the
IPO and borrowings under this promissory note are no longer available.
Due to
Related Parties
At
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company owed $177,453 and $117,453, respectively, to related parties for the administrative
service fee after a payment of $934 was made in March 2021. These amounts are non-interest bearing and are due on demand.
Related Party Loans
In
order to finance transactions costs in connection with a Business Combination, post the Company’s IPO, 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. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the working capital loans. In the event that a 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. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be
convertible into Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender at the time of the Business Combination. The Units
would be identical to the Private Placement Units sold in the private placement. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no
amounts of working capital loans outstanding.
NOTE 6 — RECURRING
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Investments
Held in Trust Account
As
of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the investments in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $230,353,340 and $230,026,577,
respectively, invested in U.S. Money Market funds. The Company considers all investments with original maturities of more than six
months but less than one year to be short-term investments.
Fair
values of the Company’s investments in the Trust Account are classified as Level 1 utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets.
Derivative
Warrant Liabilities
At
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s warrant liability was valued at $605,696 and $4,811,441, respectively. Under
the guidance in ASC Topic 815-40 the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment. As such, the warrants must be recorded on
the condensed balance sheets at fair value. This valuation is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each re-measurement,
the warrant valuation will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed
statements of operations.
Recurring
Fair Value Measurements
Since
all of the Company’s permitted investments consist of U.S. money market funds, fair values of these investments are determined by
Level 1 inputs utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.
The
Company’s public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) liability is based on unadjusted quoted prices in an active market
for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. The Company’s Private Placement Warrants are economically
equivalent to the Company’s Public Warrants. For the period ending June 30, 2021 the Public Warrants were reclassified from a Level
3 to a Level 1 classification.
The
following table presents fair value information as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 of the Company’s financial assets and
liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques
the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement at March 31, 2021 and the Private Placement Warrants
transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 2 fair value measurement at December 31, 2021. There were no transfers to/from Level

At
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 7,666,667 Public Warrants outstanding and 220,000 Private Placement
Warrants outstanding.
Each
whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment as discussed herein. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A ordinary
shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination
at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A ordinary shares (with such issue price or
effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to
the Company’s Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by the Company’s Sponsor or its
affiliates, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances
represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination
on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading
price of the Company’s ordinary shares during the 20-trading-day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the
Company consummates the initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise
price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly
Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price, described below, will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal
to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
The
warrants will become exercisable on the later of January 8, 2022 or 30 days after the completion of its initial Business Combination,
and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The
Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have
no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A
ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus is current. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company
will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A ordinary shares upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A ordinary shares issuable
upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of
the registered holder of the warrants. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration
statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase
price for the unit solely for the share of Class A ordinary shares underlying such unit.
Once
the warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the warrants for redemption:
| ● | in
whole and not in part; |
| ● | at
a price of $0.01 per warrant; |
| ● | upon
not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and |
| ● | if,
and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock
splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading-day period
ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. |
The
Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the IPO, except that the Private
Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable,
assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private
Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers
or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted
transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the
Public Warrants.
If the Company
calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the Company will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its
warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” If the Company takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the
exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained
by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess
of the “fair market value” over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market
value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the
third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.
