Securities
offered
|
8,400,000 units, at $10.00 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one right, each right entitling the holder to
automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock upon consummation of our initial business combination.
|
|||||
|
This
is different from other offerings similar to ours whose units include one share of common stock and one warrant. Our management believes that investors
in similarly structured blank check offerings, and those likely to invest in this offering, have come to expect the units of such companies to include
one share of common stock and another security which would allow the holders to acquire additional shares of common stock. Without the ability to
acquire such additional shares of common stock, our management believes that the investors would not be willing to purchase units in such
companies initial public offerings. In this offering, by offering rights as part of the units that automatically entitle the holder to receive
only one-tenth of a share of common stock, as opposed to warrants included in units of similarly structured blank check offerings that most often
entitle the holder to receive a full share of common stock, our management believes we have significantly (although not entirely) reduced the number of
shares of common stock that we would be obligated to issue after the offering. Our management also believes this will make us a more attractive merger
partner for target businesses as our capitalization structure will be simpler without the warrants present. However, our management may be incorrect in
this belief. This unit structure may also cause our units to be worth less than if they included a warrant.
|
|||||
Listing of
our securities and proposed symbols
|
We
anticipate the units, and the shares of common stock and rights once they begin separate trading, will be listed on Nasdaq under the symbols
QTETU, QTET and QTETR, respectively.
|
|||||
|
Each
of the common stock and rights may trade separately on the 90th day after the date of this prospectus unless EarlyBirdCapital determines that an
earlier date is acceptable (based upon, among other things, its assessment of the relative strengths of the securities markets and small capitalization
companies in general, and the trading pattern of, and demand for, our securities in particular). In no event will EarlyBirdCapital allow separate
trading of the common stock and rights until we file an audited balance sheet reflecting our receipt of the gross proceeds of this
offering.
|
|
Once
the shares of common stock and rights commence separate trading, holders will have the option to continue to hold units or separate their units into
the component pieces. Holders will need to have their brokers contact our transfer agent in order to separate the units into shares of common stock and
rights.
|
|||||
|
Upon
consummation of an initial business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. At that
time, the units will cease trading.
|
|||||
|
We
will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC, including an audited balance sheet, promptly upon the consummation of this offering, which is
anticipated to take place three business days from the date the units commence trading. The audited balance sheet will reflect our receipt of the
proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option if the over-allotment option is exercised on the date of this prospectus. If the over-allotment
option is exercised after the date of this prospectus, we will file an amendment to the Form 8-K or a new Form 8-K to provide updated financial
information to reflect the exercise of the over-allotment option. We will also include in the Form 8-K, or amendment thereto, or in a subsequent Form
8-K, information indicating if EarlyBirdCapital has allowed separate trading of the common stock and rights prior to the 90th day after the date of
this prospectus.

Offering
proceeds to be held in the trust account
|
$80,220,000 of the net proceeds of this offering (or $92,410,500 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full), plus the $5,425,000 (or
$6,081,250 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) we will receive from the sale of the private units, for an aggregate of $85,645,000 (or
$98,491,750 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) or approximately $10.20 per unit sold to the public in this offering, will be placed in
a trust account in the United States at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee
pursuant to an agreement to be signed on the date of this prospectus. The remaining $550,000 of net proceeds of this offering will not be held in the
trust account.
|
|||||
|
Except as set forth below, the proceeds held in the trust account will not be released until the earlier of: (1) the completion of our initial
business combination within the required time period and (2) our redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if we have not completed a
business combination in the required time period. Therefore, unless and until our initial business combination is consummated, the proceeds held in the
trust account will not be available for our use for any expenses related to this offering or expenses which we may incur related to the investigation
and selection of a target business and the negotiation of an agreement to acquire a target business.
|
|||||
|
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be released to us from the trust account (1) any interest earned on the funds in the trust account
that we need to pay our income or other tax obligations and (2) any remaining interest earned on the funds in the trust account up to $750,000 that we
need for our working capital requirements. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by us may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net
proceeds of this offering not held in the trust account of approximately $550,000; provided, however, that in order to meet our working capital needs
following the consummation of this offering if the funds not held in the trust account and interest earned on the funds held in the trust account
available to us are insufficient, our sponsors, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to
time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes
would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lenders discretion, up to $500,000 of
the notes may be converted upon consummation of our business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for
example, would result in the holders being issued 55,000
|
|
shares of common stock if $500,000 of notes were so converted since the 50,000 rights included in the private units would result in the
issuance of 5,000 shares of common stock upon the closing of our business combination). Our stockholders have approved the issuance of the shares of
common stock upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert them at the time of the consummation of our initial business
combination. If we do not complete a business combination, the loans will not be repaid.
|
|||||
Limited
payments to insiders
|
There
will be no fees, reimbursements or other cash payments paid to our sponsors, officers, directors or their affiliates prior to, or for any services they
render in order to effectuate, the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is) other
than:
|
|||||
|
repayment at the closing of this offering of a non-interest bearing loan in an aggregate amount of $65,000 made by Eric S.
Rosenfeld, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer;
|
|||||
|
payment of $10,000 per month to Crescendo Advisors II, LLC, an affiliate of Eric S. Rosenfeld, for office space and related
services;
|
|||||
|
reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf, such as
identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combinations; and
|
|||||
|
repayment of loans which may be made by our sponsors or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors
to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the terms of which have not been determined nor have any
written agreements been executed with respect thereto.
|
|||||
|
There
is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available
proceeds not deposited in the trust account and the interest income earned on the amounts held in the trust account that may be released to us, such
expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination. Our audit committee will review and approve all
reimbursements and payments made to any sponsor or member of our management team, or our or their respective affiliates, and any reimbursements and
payments made to members of our audit committee will be reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors, with any interested director abstaining from
such review and approval.
|
Stockholder
approval of initial business combination
|
In
connection with any proposed initial business combination, we will seek stockholder approval of such initial business combination at a meeting called
for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to convert their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed business
combination. We will consummate our initial business combination only if we have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation and
a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the business combination.
|
|||||
|
We
chose our net tangible asset threshold of $5,000,001 to ensure that we would avoid being subject to Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act.
However, if we seek to consummate an initial business combination with a target business that imposes any type of working capital closing condition or
requires us to have a minimum amount of funds available from the trust account upon consummation of such initial business combination, our net tangible
asset threshold may limit our ability to consummate such initial business combination (as we may be required to have a lesser number of shares
converted) and may force us to seek third party financing which may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. As a result, we may not be
able to consummate such initial business combination and we may not be able to locate another suitable target within the applicable time period, if at
all.
|
|||||
|
Our
sponsors and our officers and directors have agreed (1) to vote any of their insider shares and private shares (which will represent approximately
23.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock after the offering) as well as any public shares purchased in or after this offering in
favor of any proposed business combination and (2) not to convert any shares (including the insider shares) into the right to receive cash from the
trust account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination or a vote to amend the provisions of our amended
and restated certificate of incorporation relating to stockholders rights or pre-business combination activity. None of our sponsors, officers,
directors or their affiliates has indicated any intention to purchase units in this offering or any units or shares of common stock in the open market
or in private transactions. However, if a significant number of stockholders vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against a proposed business
combination, our sponsors, officers, directors or their affiliates could make such purchases in the open market or in private transactions in order to
influence the vote. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our officers, directors, sponsors and their affiliates will not make purchases of shares of common
stock if the purchases would violate Section 9(a)(2) or Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act, which are rules designed to stop potential manipulation of a
companys stock.
|
Conversion
rights
|
At
any meeting called to approve an initial business combination, any public stockholder voting either for or against such proposed business combination
will be entitled to demand that his shares of common stock be converted for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the trust account (initially
approximately $10.20 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us or necessary
to pay our taxes).
|
|||||
|
We
will consummate our initial business combination only if we have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation and a majority of
the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the business combination. As a result, if stockholders owning approximately 94.2%
(or approximately 94.9% if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) or more of the shares of common stock sold in this offering exercise
conversion rights, the business combination will not be consummated. However, the actual percentages will only be able to be determined once a target
business is located and we can assess all of the assets and liabilities of the combined company (which would include the fee payable to
EarlyBirdCapital in an amount equal to 3.75% of the total gross proceeds raised in the offering as described elsewhere in this prospectus, any
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by our sponsors, officers, directors or their affiliates in connection with certain activities on our behalf, such as
identifying and investigating possible business targets and business combinations that have not been repaid at that time, as well as any other
liabilities of ours and the liabilities of the target business) upon consummation of the proposed business combination, subject to the requirement that
we must have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon closing of such business combination. As a result, the actual percentages of shares that
can be converted may be significantly lower than our estimates. We chose our net tangible asset threshold of $5,000,001 to ensure that we would avoid
being subject to Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. However, if we seek to consummate an initial business combination
with a target business that imposes any type of working capital closing condition or requires us to have a minimum amount of funds available from the
trust account upon consummation of such initial business combination, our net tangible asset threshold may limit our ability to consummate such initial
business combination (as we may be required to have a lesser number of shares converted) and may force us to seek third party financing which may not
be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. Alternatively, we may not be able to consummate a business combination unless the number of shares of
common stock seeking conversion rights is significantly less than the 94.2% (or 94.9% if the over-allotment
|
|
option is exercised in full) indicated above. As a result, we may not be able to consummate such initial business combination and we may not
be able to locate another suitable target within the applicable time period, if at all.
|
|||||
|
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert
or as a group (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking conversion rights with respect to 20% or
more of the shares of common stock sold in this offering without our prior written consent. We believe this restriction will prevent an individual
stockholder or group from accumulating large blocks of shares before the vote held to approve a proposed business combination and attempt
to use the conversion right as a means to force us or our management to purchase its shares at a significant premium to the then current market price.
By limiting a stockholders ability to convert no more than 20% of the shares of common stock sold in this offering, we believe we have limited
the ability of a small group of stockholders to unreasonably attempt to block a transaction which is favored by our other public
stockholders.
|
|||||
|
We
may require public stockholders, whether they are a record holder or hold their shares in street name, to either tender their certificates
to our transfer agent at any time through the vote on the business combination or to deliver their shares to the transfer agent electronically using
Depository Trust Companys DWAC (Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian) System, at the holders option. The requirement for physical or electronic
delivery prior to the meeting ensures that a holders election to convert his shares is irrevocable once the business combination is approved.
There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The
transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $45 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the converting
holder. However, this fee would be incurred regardless of whether or not we require holders to deliver their shares prior to the vote on the business
combination in order to exercise conversion rights. This is because a holder would need to deliver shares to exercise conversion rights regardless of
the timing of when such delivery must be effectuated. However, in the event we require stockholders to deliver their shares prior to the vote on the
proposed business combination and the proposed business combination is not consummated, this may result in an increased cost to
stockholders.
|
|||||
Liquidation
if no business combination
|
If we
are unable to complete our initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of this offering (or 24 months from the closing of this
offering if we have executed a definitive agreement for a business
|
|
combination within 18 months from the closing of this offering but have not completed such business combination with the 18-month period), we
will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days
thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders rights as stockholders
(including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible
following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining holders of common stock and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject
(in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable
law. If we execute a definitive agreement for our initial business combination within 18 months and we are unable to consummate that transaction for
any reason, we would be free to consummate another business combination so long as we complete such transaction within 24 months from the closing of
this offering.
|
|||||
|
In
connection with our redemption of 100% of our outstanding public shares for a portion of the funds held in the trust account, each holder will receive
a full pro rata portion of the amount then in the trust account, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not
previously released to us for our working capital requirements or necessary to pay our taxes payable on such funds (subject in each case to our
obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors). Holders of rights will receive no proceeds in connection with the liquidation with
respect to such rights, which will expire worthless.
|
|||||
|
We
may not have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors claims. Although we will seek to have all third parties (including any vendors
or other entities we engage after this offering) and any prospective target businesses enter into valid and enforceable agreements with us waiving any
right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such
agreements. There is also no guarantee that the third parties would not challenge the enforceability of these waivers and bring claims against the
trust account for monies owed them.
|
|||||
|
The
holders of the insider shares and private units will not participate in any redemption distribution with respect to their insider shares, private
shares or private rights.
|
|||||
|
If we
are unable to conclude our initial business combination and we expend all of the net proceeds of this offering not deposited in the trust account,
without taking into account any interest earned on the trust account, we expect that the initial per-share redemption price will be
|
|
approximately $10.20. The proceeds deposited in the trust account could, however, become subject to claims of our creditors that are in
preference to the claims of our stockholders. In addition, if we are forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed
against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our
bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our stockholders. Therefore, the actual per-share
redemption price may be less than approximately $10.20.
|
|||||
|
We
will pay the costs of any subsequent liquidation from our remaining assets outside of the trust account. If such funds are insufficient, Mr. Rosenfeld
has agreed to pay the funds necessary to complete such liquidation (currently anticipated to be no more than approximately $15,000) and has agreed not
to seek repayment for such expenses.

A portion of the offering expenses, including the SEC registration fee, the FINRA filing fee, the non-refundable portion of the Nasdaq listing fee and a portion of the legal and audit fees, have been paid from the funds we received from Eric S. Rosenfeld described below. These funds will be repaid out of the proceeds of this offering available to us. |
(2)
|
No discounts or commissions will be paid with respect to the purchase of the private units. |
(3)
|
The funds held in the trust account may, but need not, be used to pay our expenses relating to acquiring a target business, including a fee payable to EarlyBirdCapital in an amount equal to 3.75% of the total gross proceeds raised in the offering described below. |
(4)
|
The amount of proceeds not held in the trust account will remain constant at $550,000 even if the over-allotment is exercised. In addition, interest income earned on the amounts held in the trust account (after payment of taxes owed on such interest income) in an amount up to $750,000 will be available to us to pay for our working capital requirements. We estimate the interest earned on the trust account will be approximately $150,000 over a 24-month period assuming an interest rate of approximately 0.1% per year. |
(5)
|
These expenses are estimates only. Our actual expenditures for some or all of these items may differ from the estimates set forth herein. For example, we may incur greater legal and accounting expenses than our current estimates in connection with negotiating and structuring our initial business combination based upon the level of complexity of that business combination. We do not anticipate any change in our intended use of proceeds, other than fluctuations among the current categories of allocated expenses, which fluctuations, to the extent they exceed current estimates for any specific category of expenses, would be deducted from our excess working capital. |

The offering expenses are estimated at $500,000. |
|
Stabilizing Transactions. The underwriters may make bids or purchases soley for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the price of our units, as long as stabilizing bids do not exceed the offering price of $10.00 and the underwriters comply with all other applicable rules. |
|
Over-Allotments and Syndicate Coverage Transactions. The underwriters may create a short position in our units by selling more of our units than are set forth on the cover page of this prospectus up to the amount of the over-allotment option. This is known as a covered short position. The underwriters may also create a short position in our units by selling more of our units than are set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and the units allowed by the over-allotment option. This is known as a naked short position. If the underwriters create a short position during the offering, the representative may engage in syndicate covering transactions by purchasing our units in the open market. The representative may also elect to reduce any short position by exercising all or part of the over-allotment option. Determining what method to use in reducing the short position depends on how the units trade in the aftermarket following the offering. If the unit price drops following the offering, the short position is usually covered with shares purchased by the underwriters in the aftermarket. However, the underwriters may cover a short position by exercising the over-allotment option even if the unit price drops following the offering. If the unit price rises after the offering, then the over-allotment option is used to cover the short position. If the short position is more than the over-allotment option, the naked short must be covered by purchases in the aftermarket, which could be at prices above the offering price. |
|
Penalty Bids. The representative may reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the units originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a stabilizing or syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. |
|
the purchaser is entitled under applicable provincial securities laws to purchase our securities without the benefit of a prospectus qualified under those securities laws; |
|
where required by law, that the purchaser is purchasing as principal and not as agent; |
|
the purchaser has reviewed the text above under Resale Restrictions; and |
|
the purchaser acknowledges and consents to the provision of specified information concerning its purchase of our securities to the regulatory authority that by law is entitled to collect the information. |
