On August 2, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”), one right (“Right”) to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of one share of Common Stock upon the consummation of an initial business combination and one redeemable warrant (“Warrant”) entitling the holder thereof to purchase three-fourths (3/4) of one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000.
As of August 2, 2021, a total of $200,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below) were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders. An audited balance sheet as of August 2, 2021, reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement, will be filed within 4 business days of the consummation of the IPO.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with Content Creation Media LLC (the “sponsor”) of 714,400 units (the “Private Units”), generating total proceeds of $7,144,000.
The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except that the warrants underlying the Private Units will be non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the sponsor or its permitted transferees. Additionally, the sponsor agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Registration Statement) until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The sponsor was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Units.
The Private Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transaction did not involve a public offering.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On July 28, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. The terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation are set forth in the Registration Statement and are incorporated herein by reference.
