Initial Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding taxes payable on the income earned on the trust account) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

The Company will provide the holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share). The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination, subject to closing condition regarding stockholder approval matters as set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below). The Company will not redeem the Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “A&R Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders (as defined below) agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial stockholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

The A&R Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The holders of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) prior to the Initial Public Offering (the “initial stockholders”) agreed not to propose an amendment to the A&R Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or January 14, 2023 (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The initial stockholders agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.00. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement (a “Target”), reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or Target that executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Proposed Business Combination

On June 24, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended from time to time, including by that certain Amendment No. 1 Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 28, 2021, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Bolt Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub I”), Bolt Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”), and BuzzFeed, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“BuzzFeed”).

The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the following transactions at the closing: Merger Sub I will merge with and into BuzzFeed, with BuzzFeed as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, BuzzFeed will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger,” together with the Merger, the “Two-Step Merger”) with Merger Sub II being the surviving company of the Second Merger. The Two-Step Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination.”

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of Class A common stock of BuzzFeed, Class B common stock of BuzzFeed, Class C common stock of BuzzFeed and preferred stock of BuzzFeed, other than company restricted stock awards, excluded shares and dissenting shares shall be cancelled and automatically converted into a number of shares of Class A common stock of the Company equal to the quotient, rounded to the tenth decimal place, obtained by dividing 30,880,000 by the aggregate number of shares of BuzzFeed Series F Preferred Stock and BuzzFeed Series G Preferred Stock outstanding as of the effective time; (ii) each share of BuzzFeed Class A Common Stock and BuzzFeed Preferred Stock (other than BuzzFeed Series F Preferred Stock, BuzzFeed Series G Preferred Stock, company restricted stock awards, excluded shares and dissenting shares) shall be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company equal to the quotient of: (A) the remaining per share amount, divided by (B) $10.00; (iii) each share of BuzzFeed Class B Common Stock (other than excluded shares and dissenting shares) shall be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class B common stock of the Company equal to the quotient of: (A) the remaining per share amount, divided by (B) $10.00; and (iv) each share of BuzzFeed Class C Common Stock (other than excluded shares and dissenting shares) shall be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class C common stock of the Company equal to the quotient of: (A) the remaining per share amount, divided by (B) $10.00.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a convertible note subscription agreement (the “Convertible Note Subscription Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Note Investors”), in respect of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible notes due in 2026 (the “Notes”) to be issued in connection with the closing of the Business Combination The principal terms of the Notes are set forth in the term sheet attached as an exhibit to the Convertible Note Subscription Agreement and will be embodied in an indenture to be entered into in connection with the closing of the Business Combination between BuzzFeed, the guarantors party thereto and the indenture trustee (the “Indenture”) and the form of global note attached thereto. The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum, payable semi-annually (provided, however, that if there is less than $144.0 million in 890’s trust account immediately following the closing date of the transactions subject of the Convertible Note Subscription Agreement (the “Convertible Note Financing”), the stated interest rate shall be 8.50% per annum), will be convertible into approximately 12,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at an initial conversion price of the lesser of (x) $12.50 and (y) a 25% premium to the lowest per share price at which any equity of 890 is issued prior to the closing of the Business Combination in accordance with the terms thereof, and shall mature on the date that is five years following the closing of the Convertible Note Financing.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $60,000 in cash and working capital deficit of approximately $1.1 million.

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the cash proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), loan from the Sponsor of $300,000 under the Note (as defined in Note 4), and advances from related party of approximately $13,000 (Note 4). The Company repaid the Note of $300,000 in full on January 14, 2021, and the Company reimbursed the advances from the related party in full in February 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, members of our management team or any of their affiliates or other third parties, may, but are not obligated to (except as described below), provide the Company with Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 4). The Working Capital Loans will either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units.

On May 27, 2021, the Sponsor committed to provide to the Company an aggregate of up to $1.6 million in loans, and on August 6, 2021, the Sponsor committed to provide to the Company an additional amount of up to $0.8 million in loans for an aggregate of up to $2.4 million in loans, in each case in order to finance the Company’s working capital needs (including transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination) (the foregoing, the “Sponsor Loan Commitment”). As described above, up to $1.5 million of the Sponsor Loan Commitment (in the aggregate with any other Working Capital Loans) may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. As of September 30, 2021, the Company borrowed from the Sponsor the amount of $1.0 million under the Sponsor Loan Commitment, which amount remains outstanding (See Note 4).

Based on the foregoing, management has since reevaluated the Company’s liquidity and financial condition and believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.
