This registration statement relates to the registration with the SEC of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), of the Company and warrants to purchase common stock (“warrants”).

In connection with the Business Combination, (i) all of the Class B common stock converted into Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, (ii) the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to, among other things, effect the reclassification and conversion of all of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, and (iii) the Company’s board of directors approved the amendment and restatement of the Company’s bylaws.
