NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Business Operations – (continued)
shares of common stock held by Public Shareholders at the closing of the Offering. Accordingly, Public Shareholders holding less than 30% of the aggregate number of shares owned by all Public Shareholders may seek conversion of their shares in the event of a Business Combination or vote on Extended Period. Such Public Shareholders are entitled to receive their per share interest in the Trust Account computed without regard to the founding shares and the shares underlying the warrants (but not shares acquired in the Offering or in the secondary market) held by Existing Shareholders.
Concentration of Credit Risk — The Company maintains cash in a bank deposit account which, at times, may exceed federally insured (FDIC) limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on this account.
Deferred Income Taxes — Deferred income taxes are provided for the differences between bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company recorded a deferred income tax asset for the tax effect of temporary differences, aggregating approximately $6,280. In recognition of the uncertainty regarding the ultimate amount of income tax benefits to be derived, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2007.
The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate of 34% due to the increase in the valuation allowance.
Loss Per Share — Loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements — Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
2. Public Offering
On February 13, 2008, the Company consummated its initial public offering of 5,175,000 units, which included 675,000 units sold pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option, at an offering price of $8.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value, and one warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase from the Company one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share commencing on later of: (i) the consummation of the Business Combination, or (ii) February 8, 2009. In no event will the holder of a warrant be entitled to receive a net cash settlement or other consideration in lieu of physical settlement in shares of the Company’s common stock.
The warrants expire on February 8, 2012, unless earlier redeemed. The warrants included in the units sold in the Offering are redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole and not in part at a price of $0.01 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ notice after the warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock exceeds $10.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period.
The warrants will be classified within stockholders’ equity since, under the terms of the warrants, the Company cannot be required to settle or redeem them for cash.

2. Public Offering – (continued)
In connection with the closing of the Offering, the Company paid the underwriters an underwriting discount of 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. However, the underwriters have agreed that 3.0% of the underwriting discounts will not be payable unless and until the Company completes a Business Combination and have waived their right to receive such payment upon the Company’s liquidation if it is unable to complete a Business Combination. The Company also issued a unit purchase option, for $100, to the underwriters, to purchase up to a total of 315,000 units at $10.00 per unit. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are otherwise identical to those offered in the Offering. This option is exercisable for cash, or on a cashless basis commencing six months from the date of the Offering, and expiring five years from the date of the Offering. Since the warrants underlying the option are the same as the units sold in the Offering and expire four years after the date of the Offering, if the option is exercised after such four-year period, the holders of the option will only receive the common stock component of the units. The Company intends to account for the fair value of the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as a cost of the Offering resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity. The Company estimates that the fair value of this unit purchase option is approximately $926,037 ($2.94 per unit) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the unit purchase option granted to the underwriters is estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 43.19%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 4.25% and (3) expected life of 5 years. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to those offered in the Offering.
3. Deferred Offering Costs
As of December 31, 2007, the Company has incurred deferred registration costs of $160,028 relating to expenses incurred in connection to the Offering, which was consummated on February 13, 2008. Deferred offering costs consist of legal, consulting and other fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Offering and that will be charged to shareholders’ equity upon the receipt of the capital raised.
In conjunction with the Offering, the common shares outstanding as of December 31, 2007 includes 168,750 shares of common stock that were subject to forfeiture by our existing shareholders to the extent the underwriters over-allotment option was not fully exercised. The underwriters over-allotment option was fully exercised.
4. Note Payable to Shareholder
The Company issued an unsecured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $200,100 to a shareholder of the Company on September 20, 2007. The loan was made to fund a portion of the organizational and offering expenses owed by the Company to third parties. The note is non-interest bearing and was payable on the earlier of September 20, 2008 or the consummation of the Offering. Through December 31, 2007, $25,000 of the loan has been repaid. Due to the short-term nature of the note, the fair value of the note approximates its carrying amount.
5. Commitments and Related Party Transactions
The Company presently occupies office space provided by an affiliate of one of the Founders. This affiliate has agreed that, until the Company consummates a Business Combination, it will make such office space, as well as certain office and secretarial services, available to the Company, as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay such affiliate a total of $7,500 per month for such services commencing on the effective date of the Proposed Offering.
Pursuant to letter agreements which the Founders entered into with the Company (subsequent to December 31, 2007) and the underwriters, the Founders waived their right to receive distributions with respect to their founding shares upon the Company’s liquidation.

5. Commitments and Related Party Transactions – (continued)
The underwriters, Robert H.J. Lee, Eric M. Zachs, Eliezer R. Katz, Philip Katz and Nhin Sang, have agreed to purchase a total of 1,873,684 warrants (“Founder Warrants”) at $0.95 per Founder Warrant (for an aggregate purchase price of $1,780,000) privately from the Company. This purchase took place prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Offering. All of the proceeds received from this purchase were placed in the Trust Account. The Founder Warrants were identical to the warrants offered in this offering, except that (i) the Founder Warrants are not subject to redemption so long as they are held by the original purchasers or their permitted transferees, (ii) the Founder Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the original purchasers or their permitted transferees while the warrants included in the units sold in the Offering cannot be exercised on a cashless basis, (iii) upon an exercise of the Founder Warrants, the holders of the Founder Warrants will receive unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock, and (iv) subject to certain limited exceptions, the Founder Warrants are not transferable until they are released from escrow, as described below, which would only be after the consummation of a Business Combination. The Founder Warrants will be differentiated from warrants sold as part of the Units in the Offering through legends contained on the certificates representing the Founder Warrants indicating the restrictions and rights specifically applicable to such Founder Warrants.
Exercising warrants on a “cashless basis” means that, in lieu of paying the aggregate exercise price for the shares of common stock being purchased upon exercise of the warrant in cash, the holder forfeits a number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant with a market value equal to such aggregate exercise price. Accordingly, the Company would not receive additional proceeds to the extent the Founder Warrants are exercised on a cashless basis. Warrants included in the Units sold in the Offering are not exercisable on a cashless basis and the exercise price with respect to these warrants will be paid directly to the Company. The Founder Warrants will be placed in an escrow account at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as escrow agent, and will not be released from escrow until 60 days after the consummation of our initial business combination.
Except for transfers to certain permitted transferees, the Founder Warrants will not be transferable (except in limited circumstances) or salable by the purchaser until their release from escrow, and will be non-redeemable so long as the purchaser or one of its permitted transferees holds such warrants. The holders of the Founder Warrants and the underlying shares of common stock will be entitled to registration rights under an agreement to enable their resale commencing on the date such warrants become exercisable. The Company has elected to make the Founder Warrants non-redeemable in order to provide the purchaser and its member transferees a potentially longer exercise period for those warrants because they will bear a higher risk while being required to hold such warrants until the consummation of a Business Combination. With those exceptions, the Founder Warrants have terms and provisions that are substantially identical to those of the warrants being sold as part of the Units in the Offering.
Prior to their release from escrow, the Founder Warrants may be transferred (i) to the Company’s directors, officers or employees or their affiliates, or (ii) to family members and trusts of permitted assignees for estate planning purposes or, upon the death of any such person, to an estate or beneficiaries of permitted assignees; in each case, such transferees will be subject to the same transfer restrictions as the original purchasers until after the Founder Warrants are released from escrow. If the purchaser or permitted transferees acquire warrants for their own account in the open market, any such warrants will be redeemable. If the Company’s other outstanding warrants are redeemed and the market price of a share of the Company’s common stock rises following such redemption, holders of the Founder Warrants could potentially realize a larger gain on exercise or sale of those warrants than is available to other warrant holders, although the Company does not know if the price of its common stock would increase following a warrant redemption.

6. Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.
The agreement with the underwriters prohibits the Company, prior to a Business Combination, from issuing preferred stock which participates in the proceeds of the Trust Account or which votes as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.
Common Stock
The initial authorized common stock of the Company included up to 20,000,000 shares. The holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock. In addition, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors. On February 8, 2008, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock to 50,000,000.
7. Subsequent Events
As indicated in Note 2, on February 13, 2008, the Company sold 5,175,000 units in the Offering at a price of $8.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value, and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock.
