1. | We note Exhibit 10.7, the executed forward purchase contract with Primerose Development Group Ltd. and references to the agreement throughout your registration statement. The forward purchase contract states, “[w]e acknowledge that Primerose Development Group Ltd. … have/has expressed an intention to purchase up to 1,000,000 Units in the IPO…” and “[w}e are pleased to hereby accept the offer you have made to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 Shares, consisting of the IPO Shares and a number of shares equal to the difference between 1,000,000 and the number of IPO Shares actually purchased in the IPO….” Please tell us the exemption you are relying upon for the offer of the IPO shares and why this agreement would not constitute a “sale” under Section 2(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933. |

RESPONSE: We respectfully advise the Staff that the forward purchase contract (the “Primerose Agreement”) between the Company and with Primerose Development Group Ltd. (“Primerose”) does not constitute an offer of IPO shares by the Company to Primerose or a “sale” under Section 2(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.
While Primerose has expressed an intention to purchase up to 1,000,000 Units in the Company’s initial public offering, the Company has not offered and Primerose has not agreed to purchase any Units in the Company’s initial public offering. Pursuant to Section 1 and Section 3.1 of the Primerose Agreement, Primerose’s sole obligation under the Primerose Agreement is at the time of the Company’s business combination to purchase in a private placement from the Company or in open market purchases arranged by the Company or its advisors, subject to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Primerose Agreement, a number of shares of Company common stock equal to 1,000,000 shares less the number of any shares that Primerose then holds (whether acquired in the IPO, in open market transactions or otherwise) and that Primerose continues to hold at the time of the Company’s business combination.
