The Schedule 13D is being filed by the following persons (each a “Reporting Person” and, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”):

The aggregate purchase price for the Placement Units (as defined below) was $13,350,000. The aggregate purchase price for the Founder Shares (as defined below) was $25,000. In each case, the source of these funds was the working capital of Sponsor.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Founder Shares
In April 2021, Sponsor purchased 7,187,500 founder shares, classified as Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. In September 2021, Sponsor forfeited 1,437,500 Class B ordinary shares, and in October 2021, the Issuer effectuated a share capitalisation of 1,150,000 founder shares, resulting in Sponsor holding an aggregate of 6,900,000 founder shares (the “Founder Shares”).

Each Placement Unit consists of one Ordinary Share (“Placement Share”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Placement Warrant”). Each whole Placement Warrant will become exercisable to purchase one Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination.
The foregoing description of the Placement Unit Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Letter Agreement
Sponsor and the Issuer entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which Sponsor has agreed to (i) waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares, Placement Shares, and Ordinary Shares in connection with the completion of the Business Combination, (ii) waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares, Placement Shares, and Ordinary Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Issuer’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligation to offer redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination or certain amendments to the Issuer’s charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Ordinary Shares if the Issuer does not complete the Business Combination within 15 months (or up to 21 months if the Issuer extends the period of time to consummate the Business Combination in accordance with its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) from the closing of its initial public offering (“IPO”) or (B) with respect to any other business combination activity, (iii) waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares and Placement Shares if the Issuer fails to complete the Business Combination within 15 months (or up to 21 months if the Issuer extends the period of time to consummate the Business Combination in accordance with its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) from the closing of the IPO, although Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any Ordinary Shares it holds if the Issuer fails to complete the Business Combination within the prescribed time frame and (iv) not sell any of its Founder Shares, Placement Shares, or Ordinary Shares to the Issuer in any tender offer undertaken by the Issuer in connection with the Business Combination.
Voting Agreement
Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Sponsor agreed to vote any Founder Shares, Placement Shares, and any Ordinary Shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of the Business Combination. If the Issuer submits the Business Combination to its public shareholders for a vote, the Issuer will complete the Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding Ordinary Shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.
Lock-up Agreement
Further pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Sponsor agreed that the Founder Shares, Placement Units, and securities contained therein are not transferable or salable (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Issuer completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of its shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property, and (ii) in the case of the Placement Units, including the component securities therein, until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, with certain limited exceptions.

There can be no assurance, however, that any Reporting Person will propose such a transaction or that any such transaction would be successfully implemented.
Other than as described above, the Reporting Persons do not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)–(j) of Schedule 13D, although, depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may change their purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto at any time.
