(the "Issuer") under the heading "Description of Securities-Founder Shares," the Class B ordinary shares ("Founder Shares") will automatically convert into shares of Class A ordinary shares at the time of the Issuer's initial business combination, or at any time prior to the Issuer's initial business combination, at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments. The Class B ordinary shares have no expiration date. |
| (2) | These shares represent the Founder Shares held by SPACSphere Sponsor LLC (the "Sponsor"). The Sponsor held 5,750,000 shares at the effectiveness of the Issuer's registration statement. Upon the closing of a private placement that closed simultaneously with the initial public offering, the Sponsor sold, assigned and transferred an aggregate of 500,00 Founder Shares to the direct institutional investors. Bala Padmakumar and SPACCatalyst LLC are the sole managing members of the Sponsor and hold voting and investment discretion with respect to the ordinary shares held of record by the Sponsor. Through their control of SPACCatalyst LLC, each of Messrs. Das and Patel may be deemed to share voting and investment discretion with respect to such shares held indirectly by SPACCatalyst LLC. Each of SPACCatalyst LLC and Messrs. Padmakumar, Das and Patel disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares other than to the extent they may have a pecuniary interest therein, directly or indirectly. |
