Note 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Units (and their underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the IPO, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial business combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The Company granted Maxim, the representative of the underwriters, a 45-day option from the date of this prospectus to purchase up to 750,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

 

The underwriters will be entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 1.75% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $875,000 (or $1,006,250 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full). Additionally, the Company issued the underwriter 4% of the gross proceeds of this offering as underwriting discounts and commissions in the form of Representative Shares at a price of $10.00 per ordinary share, which will equal 200,000 shares (or 230,000 shares if the underwriter’s overallotment option is exercised in full) upon the consummation of this offering.

 

In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Company issued 200,000 Representative Shares to the underwriter. In connection with the issuance and sales of the Option Units, the Company issued an additional 30,000 Representative Shares to Maxim, the representative of the underwriters.

 

The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110I (1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110I(1), these securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales in the IPO, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the IPO except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the IPO and their officers, partners, registered persons or affiliates.
