Risks

  • Underwriters have a 45-day over-allotment option to buy up to 3.9 million additional units, which could increase the number of units outstanding if exercised and affect capital markets supply dynamics.
  • Warrants attached to the units are exercisable at $11.50 per share; the exercise terms and separate future trading of shares and warrants create factors that will influence investor returns in equity and derivatives markets.
