While this portion of the statement may be accurate, the second portion of the sentence appears contrary to disclosure elsewhere (i.e., "which could potentially impact WinVest's ability to consummate the Business Combination"), including in the immediately subsequent risk factor given that it appears that, regardless of votes or redemptions, the Sponsor Support Agreement ensures that the Business Combination proposal will be approved. Please revise or explain.
