The Company will provide holders of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, sold in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Shares” and such holders, the “Public Shareholders”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek shareholder approval under applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement. Asset acquisitions and share purchases would not typically require shareholder approval, while direct mergers with the Company where the Company does not survive and any transactions, where the Company issues more than 20% of the outstanding ordinary shares or seek to amend its memorandum and articles of association would typically require shareholder approval. The Company currently intends to conduct redemptions in connection with a shareholder vote unless shareholder approval is not required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements or the Company chooses to conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for business or other reasons. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “initial shareholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the time period set forth in its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as my be amended from time to time or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company had 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate the initial Business Combination, which has been subsequently extended to November 15, 2023 (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Combination Period is not further extended, the Company 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 the Company to pay its tax obligations, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Sponsor and each member of the Company’s management team have entered into an agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.00009 per share (ii) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Class B ordinary shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of the Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares; and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Class B ordinary shares they hold if the Company fails to consummate an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (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).

Proposed Business Combination

On November 10, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, BCSA Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Qenta Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Qenta”).

The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and Qenta. The Business Combination Agreement provides for, among other things, the following transactions: (i) the Company will become a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and, in connection with the Domestication, (A) the Company’s name will be changed to “Qenta Inc.” (“New Qenta”) and (B) each outstanding Class A ordinary share of the Company and each outstanding Class B ordinary share of the Company will become one share of common stock of New Qenta (the “New Qenta Common Stock”); and (ii) following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into Qenta, with Qenta as the surviving company in the merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Qenta (the “Merger”).

The Domestication, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to as the “Qenta Business Combination.” The Qenta Business Combination is expected to close following the receipt of the required approval by the Company’s shareholders and the fulfillment of regulatory requirements and other customary closing conditions.

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, (i) outstanding shares of Qenta (other than treasury shares and any Company Dissenting Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) will be exchanged for shares of New Qenta Common Stock and (ii) each outstanding Exchangeable Company RSU (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) will be exchanged for comparable restricted stock units of New Qenta, based on an agreed upon equity value. Under the current terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company anticipates issuing 49,100,000 shares of New Qenta Common Stock to the equityholders of Qenta in the Qenta Business Combination.

The obligation of the Company and Qenta to consummate the Business Combination is subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (ii) the absence of any order, law or other legal restraint or prohibition issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental entity of competent jurisdiction enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the Domestication or the Merger, (iii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended registering the New Qenta Common Stock to be issued in the Merger and the Domestication, (iv) the required approvals of the Company’s shareholders, (v) the approval of Qenta’s shareholders, (iv) the approval by Nasdaq of the Company’s listing application in connection with the Qenta Business Combination, (v) the consummation of the Domestication, (vi) the Company having at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) remaining after the closing of the Qenta Business Combination, and (vii) the aggregate cash proceeds available to the Company after redemptions at least equaling its aggregate closing expenses. In addition to certain other customary closing conditions, the Company’s obligation to consummate the Qenta Business Combination is also conditioned upon the Company’s receipt of an executed executive employment agreement with Brent de Jong, Qenta’s Chief Executive Officer.

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company entered into a Confirmation (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”), with Vellar Opportunity Fund SPV LLC—Series 5 (the “FPA Seller”), a client of Cohen & Company Financial Management, LLC (“Cohen”). Entities and funds managed by Cohen own equity interests in the Sponsor. The primary purpose of entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement was to help ensure the aggregate cash proceeds condition in the Business Combination Agreement will be met, increasing the likelihood that the transaction will close. Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement, the FPA Seller may, but is not obligated to, purchase after the date of the Company’s redemption deadline through a broker in the open market the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, including such shares that holders had elected to redeem pursuant to the Company’s organizational documents in connection with the Qenta Business Combination, other than from the Company or affiliates of the Company, and (b) the FPA Seller has agreed to waive any redemption rights in connection with the Qenta Business Combination with respect to such Class A ordinary shares of the Company it purchases in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subject Shares”). The Number of Shares shall equal the Subject Shares but shall be no more than 12,000,000 Shares. The FPA Seller has agreed to not beneficially own more than 9.9% of the New Qenta Common Stock on a post-combination pro forma basis. See Note 6 where the Forward Purchase Agreement is more fully described. No assurance can be given that any purchases will be made under the Forward Purchase Agreement.

The full Business Combination Agreement, Forward Purchase Agreement and other agreements entered into or contemplated to be executed prior to closing the Qenta Business Combination were included with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 10, 2022.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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 auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 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 an emerging growth 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 an 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 the comparison of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with those of another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $151,000 in its operating bank account and working capital deficit of approximately $6.5 million, inclusive of convertible note payable – related party of approximately $1.6 million.

The Company’s liquidity needs up to June 30, 2023 had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) to cover certain offering costs and through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $131,517 (see Note 5) and the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. The promissory note was paid in full on November 15, 2021. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 5). On June 15, 2022, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”) in the principal amount of up to $1,500,000 to the Sponsor, which was amended effective June 2023 to increase the maximum principal amount to $3,000,000 (see Note 5). As of June 30, 2023 the Company has drawn down a total of $1,503,420 and still can borrow up $1,496,580 on the Sponsor Note.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until November 15, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination. The Company does not have adequate liquidity to sustain operations; however, the Company has access to a Working Capital Loan from the Sponsor that management believes will enable the Company to sustain operations until it completes its initial Business Combination. If a Business Combination is not consummated by November 15, 2023, and such deadline to consummate a Business Combination is not further extended, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the Company’s liquidity issue, mandatory liquidation should a Business Combination not occur by the applicable deadline, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after November 15, 2023. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by November 15, 2023.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

On May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank became insolvent. Federal regulators seized the assets of the bank and negotiated a sale of its assets to JP Morgan Chase. The Company held deposits with this bank. As a result of the sale of the assets to JP Morgan Chase, the Company’s insured and uninsured deposits are held at JP Morgan Chase. The Company also moved the funds held in trust for the shareholders and invested in federal government securities through Morgan Stanley.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, 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 (“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. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit.

Convertible Promissory Notes – Related Party, Fair Value and Par Value

On June 15, 2022, the Company issued a promissory note for a Working Capital Loan, as described above, of $1,500,000 to the Sponsor for the Sponsor to provide additional working capital to the Company on an as-needed basis toward the consummation of a Business Combination. The Sponsor Note was amended effective June 29, 2023 to increase the maximum principal amount to $3,000,000. Proceeds from the Trust Account may only be used to pay off outstanding working capital loans under this promissory note upon the closing of the Business Combination. The Sponsor Note bears no interest and is due and payable upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination and (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. At the election of the Sponsor, all or any portion of the Sponsor Note may be converted into units of the Company upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (the “Conversion Units”), equal to (x) the portion of the principal amount of the Sponsor Note being converted, divided by (y) $10.00. The Conversion Units are identical to the Private Placement Units issued by the Company to the Sponsor in connection with the Company’s Initial Public Offering. As of June 30, 2023, principal in the amount of $1,503,420 was outstanding, leaving $1,496,580 of borrowing capacity under the Sponsor Note.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the portion of the Sponsor Note carried under the fair value method is described as “Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party, Fair Value” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets with a balance of $525,824, respectively. The 2022 proceeds from principal on the Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party, Fair Value totaled $512,000, and were historically fair valued to the amount of $525,824, containing a $13,824 change in value recorded on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. There were no changes in fair value or principal recorded during the period ended June 30, 2023.

During the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company has concluded that the fair value of the conversion feature on 2023 proceeds from principal, require bifurcation under ASC 815 and is considered de minimis. The underlying economics of the transaction are more accurately represented by recording this portion of the convertible debt agreement as a liability at par value given the de minimis value of the embedded conversion feature in this case.

As of June 30, 2023, a portion of the Sponsor Note carried under the bifurcation method is described as “Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party, Par Value” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets with a balance of $991,400, as of December 31, 2022, the balance was zero. 2023 proceeds from principal on the Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party, Par Value totaled $991,400.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on the date the securities are first listed on Nasdaq, the Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $15,000 per month for secretarial and administrative support services provided to the Company. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, under this agreement. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $28,671 and $78,819 under this agreement, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, approximately $131,000 and approximately $106,000, respectively, were due for administrative services in connection with such agreement and have been included in the accrued expenses of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In addition, the Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by the Company to the Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial Business Combination will be made using funds held outside the Trust Account.

Underwriting Agreements and Amendments

The underwriters had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,915,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 15, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment and the unexercised portion of the over-allotment of 15,000 units was forfeited. The underwriters were paid underwriting commission of $0.20 per unit, or $5,220,000 in the aggregate, upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $11,280,000 in the aggregate, is payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred underwriting commission will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

The Company entered into an amended agreement with one of its underwriters (Cantor Fitzgerald) to reduce the amount of deferred underwriting fees associated with the Qenta Business Combination. Upon the successful completion of the Qenta Business Combination, the $7,896,000 deferred underwriting fee owed to Cantor Fitzgerald will be reduced to $3,948,000.

Forward Share Purchase Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement, the FPA Seller may, but is not obligated to, purchase after the date of the Company’s redemption deadline through a broker in the open market the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, including such shares that holders had elected to redeem pursuant to the Company’s organizational documents in connection with the Qenta Business Combination, other than from the Company or affiliates of the Company, and (b) the FPA Seller has agreed to waive any redemption rights in connection with the Qenta Business Combination with respect to such Class A ordinary shares of the Company it purchases in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subject Shares”). The Number of Shares shall equal the Subject Shares but shall be no more than 12,000,000 Shares. The FPA Seller has agreed to not beneficially own more than 9.9% of the New Qenta Common Stock on a post-combination pro forma basis.

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides that (a) one business day following the closing of the Qenta Business Combination, New Qenta will pay to the FPA Seller, out of the Trust Account, an amount (the “Prepayment Amount”) equal to the Redemption Price per share (the “Initial Price”) multiplied by the aggregate number of Subject Shares, if any (together, the “Number of Shares”), less 10% (the “Shortfall Amount”) on the date of such prepayment. New Qenta will also deliver the FPA Seller an amount equal to the product of 500,000 multiplied by the Redemption Price to repay the FPA Seller for having purchased up to an additional 500,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, which shall not be included in the Number of Shares or the Terminated Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement).

From time to time and on any scheduled trading day after the closing of the Qenta Business Combination, the FPA Seller may sell Subject Shares or Additional Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) at its absolute discretion in one or more transactions, publicly or privately, and, in connection with such sales, terminate the Forward Purchase Transaction in whole or in part in an amount corresponding to the number of Subject Shares and Additional Shares. At the end of each calendar month during which any such early termination occurs, the FPA Seller will pay to the Company an amount equal to the product of (x) the Terminated Shares and (y) the Reset Price, where “Reset Price” refers to, initially, the Redemption Price. The Reset Price will be adjusted on the first scheduled trading day (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) of each month commencing on the first calendar month following the closing of the Qenta Business Combination to be the lowest of (a) the then-current Reset Price, (b) $10.00 and (c) the VWAP Price (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) of the last ten(10) scheduled trading days of the prior calendar month, but not lower than $5.00; provided, however, that, subject to certain exceptions, if the Company offers and sells shares of New Qenta Common Stock in a follow-on offering, or series of related offerings, at a price lower than, or upon any conversion or exchange price of currently outstanding or future issuances of any securities convertible or exchangeable for shares of New Qenta Common Stock being equal to a price lower than, the then-current Reset Price (the “Offering Price”), then the Reset Price shall be further reduced to equal the Offering Price. The payment of the Reset Price will not apply to sales of the Subject Shares or Additional Shares that provide proceeds to cover the FPA Sellers for the Shortfall Amount.

The Forward Purchase Agreement has a tenure of 36 months (“Maturity Date”), after which time New Qenta will be required to purchase from the FPA Seller such number of shares equal to the Maximum Number of Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) less the Terminated Shares (as such terms are defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) for consideration, settled in cash or New Qenta Common Stock, equal to the Maturity Consideration, which is the amount of (a) in the case of cash, the product of the Maximum Number of Shares less the Terminated Shares and $1.75 and (b) in the case of New Qenta Common Stock, such number of New Qenta Common Stock with a value equal to the product of the Maximum Number of Shares less the Terminated Shares and $1.75 divided by the VWAP Price of the Shares for the 30 trading days prior to the Maturity Date. In certain circumstances, the Maturity Date may be accelerated, as described in the Forward Purchase Agreement.

The Company and Qenta have agreed to pay to the FPA Seller a break-up fee equal to the sum of (i) all fees (in an amount not to exceed $75,000), plus (ii) $350,000, if the Company or Qenta terminate the Forward Purchase Agreement prior to the FPA Sellers purchasing shares under the agreement, other than because the Qenta Business Combination did not close, or Class A Ordinary Share redemptions were less than 80%.

The primary purpose of entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement was to help ensure the aggregate cash proceeds condition in the Business Combination Agreement will be met, increasing the likelihood that the transaction will close. No assurance can be given that any purchases will be made under the Forward Purchase Agreement.

Shareholder Meeting, Extension, and Redemptions

On February 3, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the “Shareholder Meeting”) at which the Company’s shareholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Memorandum and Articles of Association”) to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from May 15, 2023 to November 15, 2023 (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”). The Extension Amendment Proposal is described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 29, 2022.

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, holders of 26,406,729 Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.38 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $274.2 million. As a result, approximately $274.2 million has been removed from the Trust Account to redeem such shares and 4,915,271 Class A ordinary shares remain outstanding after the redemption, including 1,322,000 shares underlying the Private Placement Units. Upon payment of the redemption, approximately $37.3 million remained in the Trust Account.

Vendor Agreements Contingent on the Business Combination

The Company entered into an agreement with a vendor for merger advisory services and the total fee will be $6,200,000, contingent upon completion of the Qenta Business Combination.

In January 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor for investment banking services. The agreement specifies that upon a successful Business Combination, the Company will owe a fee of $1,250,000 which is payable in cash or equity at the Company’s option.

Non-redemption Agreements

The Sponsor entered into Non-Redemption Agreements with various shareholders of the Company (the “Non-Redeeming Shareholders”), pursuant to which these shareholders agreed not to redeem a portion of their shares of Company common stock (the “Non-Redeemed Shares”) in connection with the Special Meeting held on February 3, 2023, but such shareholders retained their right to require the Company to redeem such Non-Redeemed Shares in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. The Sponsor has agreed to transfer to such Non-Redeeming shareholders an aggregate of 739,286 the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor immediately following the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of such 739,286 Founder Shares transferrable to the Non-Redeeming shareholders pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement to be $155,250 or $0.21 per share. The fair value was determined using the probability of a successful Business Combination of 2.25%, a volatility of 60.0%, a discount for lack or marketability of $1.04 and the value per shares as of the valuation date of $9.32 derived from an option pricing model for publicly traded warrants. Each Non-Redeeming Shareholder acquired from the Sponsor an indirect economic interest in such Founder Shares. The excess of the fair value of such Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Accordingly, in substance, it was recognized by the Company as a capital contribution by the Sponsor to induce these Non-Redeeming Shareholders not to redeem the Non-Redeemed Shares, with a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital to recognize the fair value of the Founder Shares subject to transfer as an offering cost.

Class A ordinary shares—The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there were 4,915,271 and 31,322,000 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which 3,593,271 and 30,000,000 shares were subject to possible redemption and have been classified as temporary equity, respectively (see Note 7).

Class B ordinary shares—The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.00009 per share. At July 2, 2021, there were 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Class B ordinary shares are subject to forfeiture to the Company for no consideration to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part, so that initial shareholders will collectively own approximately 25% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding the Private Placement Shares). On November 9, 2021, the Company effected a 1.1111111-for-1 stock split and a 379,500 Class B ordinary share stock dividend with respect to Class B ordinary shares, resulting in 10,005,000 Class B ordinary shares being issued and outstanding, 1,305,000 of which were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option were not exercised in full or in part by the underwriters. As a result of the stock split, the par value of Class B ordinary shares was lowered to $0.00009. On November 15, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option resulting in 5,000 shares being forfeited and 10,000,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there were 10,000,000 shares issued and outstanding.

Prior to the initial Business Combination, only holders of Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors. In addition, in a vote to continue the company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (which requires the approval of at least two thirds of the votes of all ordinary shares voted at a general meeting), holders of the Class B ordinary shares will have ten votes for every Class B ordinary share and holders of Class A ordinary shares will have one vote for every Class A ordinary share and, as a result, the initial shareholders will be able to approve any such proposal without the vote of any other shareholder. Holders of the Class A ordinary shares will not be entitled to vote on the appointment of directors during such time. In addition, prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination, holders of a majority of Class B ordinary shares may remove a member of the board of directors for any reason. With respect to any other matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders, including any vote in connection with the initial Business Combination, except as required by law, holders of Class B and Class A ordinary shares will vote together as a single class, with each share entitling the holder to one vote.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of the initial Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, approximately 25% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities (as defined herein) or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination (after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by Public Shareholders), excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Units (and securities included in the units) issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the management team in the Private Placement or upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one to one.

The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, 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 Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its 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 under “Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00” 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 underlying the Private Placement Units (the “Private Placement Warrants”) are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, (i) will not be redeemable by the Company, (ii) may not (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination, (iii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis and (iv) will be entitled to registration rights. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The Company will not redeem the warrants as described above unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, it may exercise its redemption right even if the Company is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

The estimated fair value of the Forward Purchase Agreement was measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which was determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in the Monte Carlo simulation are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate, expected Business Combination close date and probability of a successful transaction. The Company estimates the volatility based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s shares that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. Any changes in these assumptions can change the valuation significantly.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized a loss/gain of approximately $883,000 and $66,000, $5 million and $9.7 million, respectively, resulting from a decrease/increase in the fair value of derivative liabilities, presented as change in fair value of derivative liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurement inputs at their measurement dates for the derivative warrant liabilities:
