This Amendment No. 2 amends, as set forth below, the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 4, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on August 25, 2021.  Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) and (b)

As set forth herein, R. Andrew White may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 3,465,375 Founder Shares owned directly by the Sponsor based on shared voting and dispositive power over the 3,465,375 Founder Shares owned directly by the Sponsor by virtue of his status as one of two managers of the Sponsor.  Mr. White disclaims beneficial ownership of the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsor except to the extent of his voting and dispositive interests in such shares of Class A Common Stock.

As set forth herein, M. Blair Garrou may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 4,260,375 shares of Class A Common Stock, including 3,465,375 Founder Shares owned directly by the Sponsor.  Mr. Garrou has shared voting and dispositive power over the 4,260,375 shares of Class A Common Stock consisting of (i) 3,465,375 Founder Shares owned directly by the Sponsor, (ii) 130,023 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying Units directly owned by Mercury Houston, by virtue of his status as the sole manager of the Mercury Houston, and (iii) 664,977 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying Units directly owned by Mercury Affiliates, by virtue of his status as the sole manager of the Mercury Affiliates. Mr. Garrou disclaims beneficial ownership of the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsor, Mercury Houston and Mercury Affiliates except to the extent of his voting and dispositive interests in such shares of Class A Common Stock.

The Sponsor holds directly 3,465,375 Founder Shares. The Sponsor has no independent operations, and its current principal functions are to directly hold equity interests in the Issuer.

The percentage ownership amounts are based on the 1,304,259 shares of Class A Common Stock and 4,510,375 Founder Shares reported by the Issuer as outstanding as of December 21, 2022.

(c) On February 21, 2023, Mercury Houston sold 13,084 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit in a private sale transaction.  On Feburary 21, 2023, Mercury Affiliates sold 66,916 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit in five private sale transactions in the amounts of 20,000 Units, 10,000 Units, 15,000 Units, 15,000 Units, and 6,916 Units.  Each Unit consists of one share of Class A Common Stock and one-half of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.  The warrants will become exercisable, if at all, on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination or 12 months from the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

(d) No person other than as set forth in the response to this Item 5 has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of distributions or dividends from, or the proceeds from the transfer of, the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

(e) Not applicable.
