We have limited our review of your registration statement to those issues we have
addressed in our comments. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with
information so we may better understand your disclosure.
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe our comments apply to your facts and

After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the information you

Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed June 22, 2023
General
1.Revise your prospectus to disclose the price that each selling securityholder paid for the
shares and warrants being registered for resale. Highlight any differences in the current
trading price, the prices that the Sponsor, private placement investors and other selling
securityholders acquired their shares and warrants, and the price that the public
securityholders acquired their shares and warrants. Disclose that while the
Sponsor, private placement investors and other selling securityholders may experience a
positive rate of return based on the current trading price, the public securityholders may
not experience a similar rate of return on the securities they purchased due to differences
in the purchase prices and the current trading price. Please also disclose the potential
profit the selling securityholders will earn based on the current trading price. Lastly,

please include appropriate risk factor disclosure.
2.Please revise to update your disclosures throughout the filing and address areas that
appear to need updating or that present inconsistencies. Non-exclusive examples of areas
where disclosure should be updated are as follows:
•You state on pages 5 that “[f]uture” resales of the common stock issued in connection
with the Merger may cause the market price of our securities to drop significantly.
This statement should be updated given that this prospectus is facilitating those sales.

3.For each of the securities being registered for resale, disclose the price that the selling
securityholders paid for such securities.
4.We note the significant number of redemptions of your common stock in connection with
your business combination and that the shares being registered for resale will constitute a
considerable percentage of your public float. Highlight the significant negative impact
sales of shares on this registration statement could have on the public trading price of the
common stock.
5.We note your disclosure that the each of the warrants has an exercise price of $11.50 and
that you "believe the likelihood that the holders will exercise their Warrants...is dependent
upon the trading price of our Common Stock." Please revise to also disclose the market
price of the underlying securities compared to the exercise price of the warrants, and if the
warrants are out the money, please revise to disclose the likelihood that warrant holders
will not exercise their warrants. Provide similar disclosure in the prospectus summary,
risk factors, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations section. As applicable, please also revise your Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section to
describe the impact on your liquidity and the ability of your company to fund your
operations on a prospective basis with your current cash on hand. If the company is likely
to have to seek additional capital, discuss the effect of this offering on the company’s
ability to raise additional capital.
Risk Factors, page 41
6.We note your risk factor "Sales of a substantial number of our securities in the public
market by the selling stockholders and/or by our existing stockholders could cause the
price of our shares of Common Stock and Warrants to fall." To further illustrate this risk,
disclose the purchase price of the securities being registered for resale and the percentage
that these shares currently represent of the total number of shares outstanding.

potential sale of a substantial portion of shares for resale and discuss how such sales could
impact the market price of the company’s common stock. Your discussion should
highlight the fact that holders of a significant percentage of your outstanding shares will
be able to sell all of their shares for so long as the registration statement of which this
prospectus forms a part is available for use.
We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of
action by the staff.
Refer to Rules 460 and 461 regarding requests for acceleration. Please allow adequate
time for us to review any amendment prior to the requested effective date of the registration
statement.
