General
We note that you are seeking to extend your termination date from November 12, 2024 to an undetermined date in 2025, a date which is more than 36 months from your initial public offering. We also note that you are currently listed on Nasdaq and your statement that Nasdaq "could" seek to suspend and delist your securities from its exchange at the end of the 36-month period. We also note that Nasdaq Rule 5815 was amended effective October 7, 2024 to provide for the immediate suspension and delisting upon issuance of a delisting determination letter for failure to meet the requirement in Nasdaq Rule IM 5101-2(b) to complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the date of effectiveness of its IPO registration statement. Please revise to state that your securities will face immediate suspension and delisting action once you receive a delisting determination letter from Nasdaq after the 36-month window ends on November 8, 2024. Please disclose the risks of non-compliance with this rule, including that under the new framework, Nasdaq may only reverse the determination if it finds it made a factual error applying the applicable rule. In addition, please also expand on your discussion of the consequences of any such suspension or delisting, including any potential impact on your ability to complete an initial business combination, any impact on the market for your securities including demand for your securities, and any impact on securities holders due to your securities no longer being considered “covered securities.”
Response: The Staff’s comment is duly noted and we have revised the disclosure in the Preliminary Proxy Statement as requested.

Very truly yours,
