Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on October 7, 2020 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"). Our Sponsor is Compute Health Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. We intend to complete our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

The registration statement for our Initial Public Offering became effective on February 4, 2021. On February 9, 2021, we consummated its Initial Public Offering of 86,250,000 Units, including 11,250,000 Over-Allotment Units to cover over-allotments, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $862.5 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $48.4 million, of which approximately $30.2 million was for deferred underwriting commissions, which has been waived.





                                       45




Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 12,833,333 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $19.3 million.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $862.5 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was placed in a Trust Account located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in United States "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

On December 2, 2022, our stockholders approved amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation extending the time for us to complete a Business Combination from 24 months from the date of the Initial Public Offering to 30 months from the date of the Initial Public Offering. In connection with the extension, stockholders elected to redeem 77,026,806 shares of our common stock, representing approximately 71.45% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock and 89.31% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock sold in the our Initial Public Offering. As a result, there are currently 9,223,194 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding. After the satisfaction of such redemptions, the balance in our Trust Account was approximately $93.0 million, as described further in "Recent Developments - Trust Account Redemptions and Extension of Combination Period."

If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 30 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or August 9, 2023 (which was extended from February 9, 2023 by vote of our stockholders) (the "Combination Period") and our stockholders have not amended the amended and restated certificate of incorporation to further extend such Combination Period, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, 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 us to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The issuance of additional shares of our stock in a business combination:

? may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in the Initial Public

Offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the

Class B common stock resulted in the issuance of Class A shares on a greater

than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B common stock;

? may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred stock is

issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;

? could cause a change of control if a substantial number of shares of our common

stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our

net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation

or removal of our present officers and directors;

? may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by

diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain


   control of us;



? may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our units, Class A common


   stock and/or warrants; and



? may not result in adjustment to the exercise price of our warrants.






                                       46




Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or owners of a target, it could result in:

? default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an

initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

? acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all

principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that

require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a

waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

? our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the


   debt is payable on demand;



? our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt contains

covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt is


   outstanding;



? our inability to pay dividends on our common stock;

? using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on

our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common

stock if declared, our ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and

acquisitions, and fund other general corporate purposes;

? limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our

business and in the industry in which we operate;

? increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and

competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;

? limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital

expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of our


   strategy; and



? other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have


   less debt.




Recent Developments


Trust Account Redemptions and Extension of Combination Period

On December 2, 2022, we held a special meeting of stockholders (the "Special Meeting") to approve amendments to the our Certificate of Incorporation to (i) extend the time for us to complete a Business Combination from February 9, 2023, which is 24 months from the date of the Initial Public Offering, to August 9, 2023, which is 30 months from the date of the Initial Public Offering (the "Extension Proposal"), and (ii) to remove the limitation that we may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of Exchange Act) of less than $5,000,001. Prior to the Special Meeting, we instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee of the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of consummation of our initial Business Combination or liquidation. In connection with the proposals, as described in the proxy, our Sponsor agreed that if the Extension Proposal was approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, it will make deposits of additional funds (the "Extension Deposits") into the Trust Account for the aggregate benefit of Public Shares that are not redeemed by the Public Stockholders in connection with the Extension Proposal (collectively, the "Remaining Public Shares") in exchange for one or more non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory notes issued by our Company to the Sponsor. For each whole month, or portion thereof, that is needed by us to complete an initial Business Combination from the date of the Extension Meeting until the August 9, 2023, our Sponsor will make Extension Deposits of $0.05 into the Trust Account for each Remaining Public Share, up to a total of $400,000 per month, in exchange for one or more non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory notes issued by us to the Sponsor. In addition, pursuant to the prospectus we stated we will not use any trust proceeds to pay any excise taxes with the redemption of our securities.





                                       47




Both proposals were approved. In connection with the Extension Proposal, stockholders elected to redeem 77,026,806 shares of our common stock, representing approximately 71.45% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock and 89.31% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock sold in the Company's Initial Public Offering. Approximately $776.5 million was withdrawn from the Company's Trust Account to pay for the redemption, leaving approximately $94.3 million in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2022.

On December 5, 2022, we filed a Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to (A) to extend the date (the "Termination Date") by which we must either (a) consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination, with one or more businesses, which we refer to as our initial Business Combination, or (b) (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such initial Business Combination and (ii) redeem all of the shares of Class A common stock of our Company sold in the Initial Public Offering that was consummated on February 9, 2021, from February 9, 2023 to August 9, 2023 (the "Extension Amendment") and (B) to eliminate from the Certificate of Incorporation the limitation that we may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of less than $5,000,001 (the "Redemption Limitation") in order to allow us to redeem public shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the "Redemption Limitation Amendment").

A copy of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Company is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.





Allurion Business Combination


On February 9, 2023, we entered into a business combination agreement (the "Business Combination Agreement") with Compute Health Corp., a Delaware corporation and direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of us ("Merger Sub I"), Compute Health LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of us ("Merger Sub II" and, together with Merger Sub I, the "Merger Subs"), Allurion Technologies Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Allurion (as defined below) ("Pubco"), and Allurion Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Allurion" and, collectively with the Company, the Merger Subs and Pubco, the "Parties").

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the business combination will be effected in three steps: (a) we will merge with and into Pubco (the "CPUH Merger," the closing of the CPUH Merger, the "CPUH Merger Closing" and the time at which the CPUH Merger becomes effective, the "CPUH Merger Effective Time"), with Pubco surviving (Pubco, in its capacity as the surviving company in the CPUH Merger, the "Surviving Corporation") and, after giving effect to such merger, becoming the publicly-listed company and the sole owner of each Merger Sub, (b) at least three (3) hours following the consummation of the CPUH Merger, Merger Sub I will merge with and into Allurion (the "Intermediate Merger," the closing of the Intermediate Merger, the "Intermediate Merger Closing" and the time at which the Intermediate Merger becomes effective, the "Intermediate Merger Effective Time"), with Allurion surviving as the surviving company in the Intermediate Merger (Allurion, in its capacity as the surviving company in the Intermediate Merger, the "Intermediate Surviving Corporation") and, after giving effect to such merger, becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation and (c) thereafter, the Intermediate Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the "Final Merger," and the time at which the Final Merger becomes effective, the "Final Merger Effective Time") (the Final Merger, collectively with the CPUH Merger and the Intermediate Merger, the "Mergers" and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), the "Proposed Transactions"), with Merger Sub II surviving as the surviving company in the Final Merger (Merger Sub II, in its capacity as the surviving company of the Final Merger, the "Surviving Subsidiary Company") and, after giving effect to such merger, remaining a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation.





                                       48




In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company and Pubco entered into Subscription Agreements with certain accredited investors or qualified institutional buyers (collectively, the "Subscription Investors") concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement on February 9, 2023. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Subscription Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Pubco agreed to issue and sell, to the Subscription Investors an aggregate of 5,386,695 shares of Pubco common stock for a purchase price of $7.04 per share, or an aggregate of approximately $37.9 million, in a private placement.

For more information about the Business Combination Agreement and the proposed Allurion Business Combination, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 9, 2023 and the Allurion Disclosure Statement that we will file with the SEC. Unless specifically stated, this Annual Report does not give effect to the proposed Allurion Business Combination and does not contain the risks associated with the proposed Allurion Business Combination. Such risks and effects relating to the proposed Allurion Business Combination will be included in the Allurion Disclosure Statement.





Results of Operations


Our entire activity since inception through December 31, 2022 related to our formation, the preparation for an Initial Public Offering, and since our Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, we had net income of approximately $32.4 million, which consisted of approximately $26.5 million for change in fair value of derivative liabilities, approximately $10.7 million from income from the investments held in the Trust Account, approximately $1,000 interest earned from bank account, approximately $866,000 gain from reversal of deferred underwriting liability - Public Warrants, approximately $1.2 million for change in fair value of promissory note, partially offset by approximately $4.5 million of general and administrative expenses, $200,000 of franchise tax expense, and approximately $2.2 million of income tax expense.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, we had an income of approximately $5.8 million, which consisted of approximately $9.2 million for change in fair value of derivative liabilities, approximately $144,000 for change in fair value of promissory note, approximately $50,000 from income from the investments held in the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $2.0 million of general and administrative expenses, approximately $200,000 of franchise tax expense, approximately $37,000 loss on the promissory note to related party and approximately $1.4 million of financing costs - derivative warrant liabilities.

Liquidity and Going concern

As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $0.8 million in our operating bank accounts and working capital of approximately $0.6 million, excluding approximately $0.9 million of Working Capital Loans (as defined below) at fair value ($2.2 million of principal). During the year ended December 31, 2022, approximately $2.7 million was withdrawn from the Trust Account to pay franchise and income taxes.

Our liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to purchase Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), and borrowings under a Note from the Sponsor of approximately $266,000. The Company repaid the Note in full upon consummation of the Initial Public Offering. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us Working Capital Loans (as defined below). As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, a total principal amount of $2.25 million and $1.5 million was drawn under these Working Capital Loans, respectively, with $750,000 available for future borrowings. Our Sponsor has also agreed to fund the Extension Deposits in exchange for one or more non-interest bearing unsecured promissory notes issued by our Company to the Sponsor.





                                       49




However, in connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ASC Topic 205-40, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern," management has determined that 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 August 9, 2023, or such later date as may be approved by our stockholders, to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that we will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, or an extension is not approved, 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 August 9, 2023, or such later date as may be approved by our stockholders.





Related Party Transactions



Founder Shares


On October 16, 2020, our Sponsor purchased 21,562,500 Founder Shares for an aggregate price of $25,000. Our Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 2,812,500 Founder Shares 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 our Company's issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in full on February 9, 2021; thus, these 2,812,500 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The initial stockholders agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.





Related Party Loans


On October 16, 2020, our Sponsor agreed to loan us an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the "Note"). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. We borrowed approximately $170,000 under the Note and repaid the Note in full upon consummation of the Initial Public Offering.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required ("Working Capital Loans").

On April 6, 2021, we entered into a Loan Note Instrument (the "Loan Note" or "Convertible Promissory Note - related party") with our Sponsor, pursuant to which, our Sponsor, in its sole and absolute discretion, may loan to us up to $1,500,000 for costs reasonably related to the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Loan Note does not bear any interest. The Loan Note is payable on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which we consummate our initial Business Combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of our Company is effective. The Loan Note is subject to customary events if default, including failure by us to pay the principal amount due pursuant to the Loan Note within five business days of the Maturity Date and certain bankruptcy events of our Company.

At our Sponsor's option, at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of the Loan Note, our Sponsor may elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan Note into that number of warrants, each whole warrant exercisable for one share of common stock of our Company (the "Conversion Warrants"), equal to: (x) the portion of the principal amount of the Loan Note being converted, divided by (y) $1.50, rounded up to the nearest whole number of warrants. The Conversion Warrants shall be identical to the warrants issued by us to the Sponsor in a private placement upon consummation of our initial public offering. The Conversion Warrants are subject to customary registration rights granted by us to the Sponsor pursuant to the Loan Note. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, $1.5 million and $1.4 million was drawn under the Convertible Promissory Note - related party, respectively, presented at the fair value of approximately $182,000 and $1.4 million on the accompanying balance sheets, respectively.





                                       50




On July 28, 2022, we entered into a second Loan Note Instrument (the "Second Loan Note" or "Promissory note - related party) with our Sponsor ("Payee"), pursuant to which, Payee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may loan to our Company up to $1.5 million for costs reasonably related to our consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Second Loan Note does not bear any interest. The Second Loan Note is payable on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which we consummate the initial business combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of our Company is effective. On July 28, 2022, we borrowed $750,000 under the Second Loan Note. As of December 31, 2022, $750,000 was outstanding under the Second Loan Note and $750,000 is available for future borrowings.

Our Sponsor agreed that if the Extension Proposal was approved and the Charter Extension becomes effective, it would make deposits of additional funds (the "Extension Deposits") into the Trust Account for the aggregate benefit of the Public Shares that are not redeemed by the Public Stockholders in connection with the Extension Proposal (collectively, the "Remaining Public Shares") in exchange for one or more non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory notes issued by us to our Sponsor. For each whole month, or portion thereof, that is needed by us to complete an initial business combination from the date of the Extension Meeting until the August 9, 2023, our Sponsor will make Extension Deposits of $0.05 into the Trust Account for each Remaining Public Share, up to a total of $400,000 per month, in exchange for one or more non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory notes issued by us to our Sponsor. As the Extension Proposal was approved, we have made contributions to the Trust Account of $400,000, which was funded by advances to us from our Sponsor. As of December 31, 2022, $400,000 was outstanding and presented as due to related party on the accompanying balance sheets. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the advance has been formalized as a promissory note from the Sponsor. See Note 12.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on the date that our securities were first listed on the NYSE through the earlier of consummation of the initial Business Combination and the liquidation, we agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for administrative and support services. The Sponsor has waived these fees through December 31, 2022.

Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by us to our initial stockholders, officers, directors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.





Critical Accounting Policies


This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Investments Held in Trust Account

Our portfolio of investments 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 and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When our investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When our investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the 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 statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.





                                       51




Derivative Warrant Liabilities

We evaluate all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

The warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the "Public Warrants") and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model each measurement date. The fair value of Public Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering have subsequently been measured based on the listed market price of such warrants. As the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, we determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. The fair value of the Warrants as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, is based on observable listed prices for such warrants. The determination of the fair value of the warrant liability may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Convertible Promissory Note - Related Party

We have elected the fair value option to account for our Convertible Promissory Note - related party with our Sponsor as defined and more fully described in the Notes to the financial statements. As a result of applying the fair value option, the Company records each draw at fair value with a gain or loss recognized at issuance, and subsequent changes in fair value are recorded as change in the fair value of our Convertible Promissory Note - related party on the statements of operations. The fair value is based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management's and, if applicable, an independent third-party valuation firm's own assumption about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred, presented as non-operating expenses in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A common stock were charged against their carrying value upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Deferred underwriting commissions were classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation was not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

On November 15, 2022, we received notification from Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC ("Goldman Sachs"), the underwriters in the Company's Initial Public Offering, that Goldman Sachs waives any entitlement it may have to the deferred underwriting commissions. As such, the deferred underwriting fee liability has been reversed in the year ended December 31, 2022. The amount allocated to the Public Warrants was recorded as a gain on the accompanying statements of operations and the amount allocated to the Class A common stock was added back as additional paid-in capital.





                                       52




Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock is classified as stockholders' equity. Our Class A common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. In connection with the Extension Proposal 77,026,806 shares of Class A common stock were redeemed. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, 9,223,194 and 86,250,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, respectively, outside of the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheets.

We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we recognized the remeasurement from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Subsequent changes in redemption value are recognized and presented as remeasurement of Class A common stock to redemption value on the accompanying statement of changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) included in the financial statements.

Net Income Per Share of Common Stock

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share." We have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the respective period.

The calculation of diluted net income per common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (including exercise of the over-allotment option) and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 34,395,833 shares of common stock in the calculation of diluted income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. As permitted by the standard, we have elected to early adopt this standard in our first quarter of 2021 with no impact upon adoption.

Our management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.





Contractual Obligations



Registration Rights


The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans), were entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders were entitled to certain demand and "piggyback" registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provided that the Company would not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Deferred Legal fees



We have an agreement to obtain legal advisory services pursuant to which our legal counsel has agreed to defer their fees until the closing of the Business Combination. The deferred fees will become payable to the legal counsel in the event the Company completes a Business Combination. As of December 31, 2022, the amount of these fees is approximately $4.0 million, included as deferred legal fees on the accompanying balance sheets.





Contingent Fee Arrangement


On August 26, 2022 we entered arrangement with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC ("Credit Suisse") to obtain financial advisory and equity capital market advisory services and to act as our placement agent in connection with raising capital with a specific target in its search for a Business Combination. Credit Suisse would be entitled to a transaction fee of $8.0 million. Per the arrangement, the $8.0 million transaction fee for these services is contingent upon the closing of a Business Combination and therefore not included as liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets. Under the arrangement, we will also reimburse Credit Suisse for reasonable expenses. As of December 31, 2022, no expenses have been claimed.

On January 28, 2023, our Company and Credit Suisse agreed to amend the transaction fee in Section 2 of the Arrangement from $8.0 million to $2.0 million. As of December 31, 2022, no expenses have been claimed.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.





JOBS Act


On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an "emerging growth company", we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor's attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of the Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.
