Item 3.01

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On November 11, 2022, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified the Company, and publicly announced, that the NYSE determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s warrants from the NYSE and that trading in the Company’s warrants would be suspended immediately, due to trading price levels pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company’s deadline to complete a business combination is December 7, 2022 and the Company does not expect to be able to complete a business combination by such time, in which case the Company expects all outstanding warrants to expire worthless upon liquidation of the Company following such date. As a result, the Company does not intend to appeal the NYSE’s determination.
