The three classes are currently comprised of the following directors:●Class I consists of directors who are serving until the Annual Meeting (comprising Joshua Sason);●Class II consists of directors who are serving until the Annual Meeting (comprising Marc Manuel and Samuel Holdsworth); and●Class III consists directors who are serving until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2019 (comprising David Schulhof and Donald S. Ienner).At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms will then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of an equal number of directors.Information Regarding the NomineesThe term of the three Class I and Class II directors will expire on the date of the Annual Meeting. Mr. Sason, as a Class I Director, and Mr. Manuel and Mr. Holdsworth, as Class II Directors, are standing for re-electionPursuant to the Board of Directors.We are not aware of any reason that any nominee will be unable or will decline to serve as a director.

Initially, the Company had until March 19, 2018 to complete its initial business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company has extended the date by which it must complete its initial business combination to May 19, 2018 and anticipates further extending it to June 19, 2018 (the “Current Termination Date”). The complete text of the proposed amendment is attached to this proxy statement asAnnex A.

If more than [_____________] shares are elected to be redeemed at the Annual Meeting, we will not effect the Charter Amendment or the Trust Amendment and we will move to liquidate the trust account and dissolve the Company promptly after the Annual Meeting.Reasons for the Proposed Charter AmendmentThe Company is proposing to amend its charter to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from the Current Termination Date to the Extended Termination Date.The proposed Transaction with the Sellers qualifies as a “business combination” under the Company’s charter, but the Company will not be able to complete the Transaction by the Current Termination Date. The Charter Amendment is essential to allow the Company more time to obtain approval for the Transaction at a special meeting of its stockholders and consummate the closing of the Transaction prior the Extended Termination Date. Approval of the Charter Amendment is a condition to the implementation of the Extension. The Company believes that given the Company’s expenditure of time, effort and money on the proposed Transaction, circumstances warrant providing public stockholders an opportunity to consider the proposed Transaction.If the Charter Amendment proposal is not approved and we have not consummated a business combination by the Current Termination Date, we will (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest income, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our warrants or rights which will expire worthless in the event we wind up.Vote Required and Board of Directors’ RecommendationApproval of the amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note.

The notes dohave violated a federal or state securities or commodities law;bear interest and are payable five business days after the date we complete a business combination.A more detailed description of the promissory notes and the related transactions can be found in our Current Reports on Form 8-K dated March 14, 2018 and April 12, 2018.The holders of our insider shares issued and outstanding on the date of the IPO, as well as the holders of the private units (and underlying securities) and any shares our insiders, officers, directorssubsequently reversed, suspended or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to us, will be entitled to registration rights pursuantvacated, relating to an agreementalleged violation of (a) any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; (b) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, be signed prior toa temporary or on the effective datepermanent injunction, order of the IPO. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that we register such securities. The holders of the majority of the insider shares can elect to exercise these registration rights atdisgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (c) any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of common stock are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the private unitslaw or shares issued in payment of working capital loans made to us can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurredregulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; orfilingsubject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any such registration statements.Magna Management LLC, a company owned by our insiders, has agreed that, commencing on the date of the IPO through the earlier of our consummation of our initial business combination or our liquidation, it will make available to us certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative support, as we may require from time to time. We have agreed to pay Magna Management LLC $10,000 per month for these services (the “Administration Fee”). However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, we may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by our audit committee that we lack sufficient funds held outside the trust to pay actual or anticipated expensesself-regulatory organization (as defined in connection with our initial business combination. Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of our initial business combination. We believe that the fee charged by Magna Management LLC is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated person.Other than the fees described above, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees or other similar compensation, will be paid to our insiders or any of the members of our management team, for services rendered to us prior to, or in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, such individuals will receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with activities on our behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses, performing business due diligence on suitable target businesses and business combinations as well as traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses to examine their operations. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the trust account and the interest income earned on the amounts held in the trust account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination.After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, board, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation materials furnished to our stockholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a stockholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation. In this event, such compensation will be publicly disclosed at the time of its determination in a Current Report on Form 8-K, as required by the SEC.All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority of our uninterested independent directors, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested independent directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.Procedures for Approval of Related Party TransactionsOur Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $100,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.We also require each of our directors and executive officers to annually complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our insiders, officers or directors unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm and the approval of a majority of our disinterested and independent directors (if we have any at that time) that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated stockholders from a financial point of view. Furthermore, in no event will our insiders, or any of the members of our management team be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).SECTION 16( a ) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE16(a)3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, requires our officers, directors andas amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons who own more than ten percentassociated with a member.registered classCode of Ethics that applies to all of our equity securitiesemployees, officers and directors.

Officers, directors and ten percent shareholders are required by regulation to furnish us with copiesCode of all Section 16(a) forms they file. We believe that, during the year ended December 31, 2017, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCEThe Company currently has three independent directors: Samuel S. Holdsworth, Chair, David Schulhof and Donald S. Ienner.
