       Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed June 9, 2022

       General

   1.                                                   With a view toward
disclosure, please tell us whether your sponsor is, is controlled by, or
                                                        has substantial ties
with a non-U.S. person. If so, also include risk factor disclosure that
                                                        addresses how this fact
could impact your ability to complete your initial business
                                                        combination. For
instance, discuss the risk to investors that you may not be able to
                                                        complete an initial
business combination with a U.S. target company should the
                                                        transaction be subject
to review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on
                                                        Foreign Investment in
the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited. Disclose that
                                                        as a result, the pool
of potential targets with which you could complete an initial business
                                                        combination may be
limited. Further, disclose that the time necessary for government
                                                        review of the
transaction or a decision to prohibit the transaction could prevent you from
                                                        completing an initial
business combination and require you to liquidate. Disclose the
                                                        consequences of
liquidation to investors, such as the losses of the investment opportunity
