Our only activities through June 30, 2022 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and, since the Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to identifying a target company for a Business Combination and consummating the Transaction. Until the consummation of the Transaction, we generated
non-operating
income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account established for the benefit of our public stockholders in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the “Trust Account”), and we incurred expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination, including the Transaction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Founder Shares”), by the Sponsor and loans from the Sponsor.
On October 23, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 30,000,000 units (“Units”), at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $300,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000.
Following the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $300,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $16,977,876 in transaction costs, including $6,000,000 of underwriting fees, $10,500,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $477,876 of other costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $467,316.

Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through June 30, 2022, we had not withdrawn any interest earned from the Trust Account.
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash of $77,404 outside of the Trust Account. Until the consummation of the Transaction, we used the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
