Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
Risk Factors
Our common stock (and our warrants) may be subject to the penny stock rules in the future...,
page 24
1. Please expand your risk factor and highlight at the forefront of the proxy statement to clearly discuss the impact that the trust falling below $5,000,001 would have upon your listing on Nasdaq. In this regard, we note that if the amount in the trust falls below $5,000,001 as a result of redemptions, the company would likely no longer meet the Nasdaq listing standards. At that point it is possible the company would become a penny stock. Please provide clear disclosure that removal of this provision could result in your securities falling within the definition of penny stock and clearly discuss the risk to the company and investors if your securities were to fall within the definition of penny stock.
Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, we have removed all language calling for the deletion of $5,000,001 net tangible assets requirements and/or thresholds.
* * * * *
Given the Company’s time constraints to complete the Business Combination, we would be very appreciative of the Staff’s expeditious review of the Company’s responses and updates to the Amended Registration Statement. Please contact me with any questions or follow up requests. I can be reached at 864-373-2262 or eric.graben@nelsonmullins.com. Thank you very much for your assistance.
Sincerely,
