Explanatory Note

Reason for this Amendment

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021 (the “Original Report”) of Alberton Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 15, 2021 to restate the financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021 included in the Original Report (the “Original Financial Statements”)

Restatement Background

The Company has re-evaluated the Company’s application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its accounting classification of the redeemable ordinary shares, no par value (the “Public Shares”), issued as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) on October 26, 2018 and in connection with the partial exercise of the over-allotment option on November 20, 2018. Historically, a portion of the Public Shares was classified as permanent equity to maintain stockholders’ equity greater than $5 million on the basis that the Company will not redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001, as described in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Charter”). Pursuant to such re-evaluation, the Company’s management has determined that the Public Shares include certain provisions that require classification of all of the Public Shares as temporary equity regardless of the net tangible assets redemption limitation contained in the Charter. This has resulted in a restatement of the initial carrying value of the Public Shares subject to possible redemption, with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital (to the extent available), accumulated deficit and shares of Public Shares.

As a result, the Company’s management, together with the Audit Committee, determined on December 2, 2021, that the Company’s financial statements, related footnotes, and other financial data as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021 included in the Original Report should be restated in the Form 10-Q/A as a result of this error.

The financial information that has been previously filed or otherwise reported for this period is superseded by the information in this Form 10-Q/A, and the financial statements and related financial information contained in the Original Report should no longer be relied upon. On December 3, 2021, the Company filed a report on Form 8-K disclosing the non-reliance on the financial statements included in the Original Report.

Items Amended in this Form 10-Q/A

This Form 10-Q/A presents the Original Report, amended and restated with modifications as necessary to reflect the restatements. The following items have been amended to reflect the restatement:

Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements

Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors

Part II, Item 6. Exhibit

In addition, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer has provided new certifications dated as of the date of this filing in connection with this Form 10-Q/A (Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2).

Except as described above (including amendment to Note 13 of the Company’s September 30, 2021 financial statements), this Form 10-Q/A does not amend, update or change any other items or disclosures in the Original Report and does not purport to reflect any information or events subsequent to the filing thereof. As such, this Form 10-Q/A speaks only as of the date the Original Report was filed, and we have not undertaken herein to amend, supplement or update any information contained in the Original Report to give effect to any subsequent events. Accordingly, this Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Report, including any amendment to those filings.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

Organization and General

Alberton Acquisition Corporation (the “Company” or “Alberton”) is a blank check company incorporated on February 16, 2018, under the laws of British Virgin Islands for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”). The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business are not limited to an industry or geographic location.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. The Company previously had until October 26, 2021 to consummate a Business Combination. On October 22, 2021, the Company held a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to which its shareholders approved extending the Extension from October 26, 2021 to April 26, 2022 (the “October 2021 Extension”).

The Company has one subsidiary, Alberton Merger Subsidiary Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Nevada on October 16, 2020 (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Sub was established for the purpose of the potential Business Combination with SolarMax Technology, Inc. (“SolarMax”), a Nevada corporation. Alberton will re-domesticate from a British Virgin Islands corporation into a Nevada corporation so as to continue as a Nevada corporation immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination with SolarMax, if consummated by April 26, 2022.

Going Concern

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after April 26, 2022.

Financing

The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” as described in Note 4) was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 23, 2018. On October 26, 2018, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit (“Units” or “Public Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Public Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 300,000 units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Hong Ye Hong Kong Shareholding Co., Limited (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $3,000,000, which is described in Note 5.

On November 20, 2018, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part and purchased 1,487,992 Public Units, which were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $14,879,920. Simultaneously with the sale of the over-allotment Public Units, the Company consummated the private placement of an additional 29,760 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total additional gross proceeds of $297,600.

Trust Account

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on October 26, 2018, an amount of $100,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”). Following the closing of underwriters’ exercise of over-allotment option on November 20, 2018, an additional $14,879,920 of net proceeds ($10.00 per Unit) was placed in the Trust Account, bringing the aggregate proceeds held in the Trust Account to $114,879,920.

On April 23, 2020, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Association with the Registrar of the British Virgin Islands to extend the time that it needs to complete an initial Business Combination from April 27, 2020 to October 26, 2020 or such an earlier date as determined by its board of directors (the “Extension”). In connection with the Extension, shareholders holding 10,073,512 public shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of fund held in the Trust Account. As a result, an aggregate of $105,879,118 (or $10.51 per share) was removed from the Trust Account to pay such shareholders.

On October 26, 2020, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Association with the Registrar of the British Virgin Islands to extend the time that it needs to complete an initial Business Combination from October 26, 2020 to April 26, 2021 or such an earlier date as determined by its board of directors (the “Second Extension”). In connection with the Second Extension, shareholders holding 1,000 public shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of fund held in the Trust Account. As a result, an aggregate of $10,770 (or $10.77013 per share) was removed from the Trust Account to pay such shareholders.

On April 23, 2021, at the 2020 Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved to amend the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to extend the date before which the Company must complete a business combination from April 26, 2021 to October 26, 2021 or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the “Third Extension). In connection with the Third Extension, shareholders holding 135,069 public shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of fund held in the Trust Account. As a result, an aggregate of $1,495,303.45 (or $11.07 per share) was released from the Trust Account to pay such shareholders.

On October 22, 2021, the Company held a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to which its shareholders approved extending the Extension from October 26, 2021 to April 26, 2022 (the “October 2021 Extension”). In connection with the approval of the October 2021 Extension, shareholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 50 of the Company’s ordinary shares. As a result, an aggregate of $571.56 (or $11.43 per share) was released from the Trust Account to pay such shareholders.

The funds in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the Company’s failure to consummate a Business Combination by April 27, 2020 (the “Combination Period”), and extended to April 26, 2022. Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, to execute agreements with the Company waiving any claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Additionally, the interest earned on the Trust Account balance may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Units, although substantially all the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (excluding any deferred underwriter’s fees and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80% test, at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% test.

(UNAUDITED)

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account ($10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations).

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority of the issued and outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, a shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Initial Shareholders (defined in Note 6 - Related Party Transactions) have agreed to vote their initial shares and private shares, as well as any Public Shares acquired in or after the Initial Public Offering, in favor of any proposed Business Combination. Additionally, each public shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

The amount in the Trust Account (less the aggregate nominal par value of the shares of the Company’s public shareholders) under the Companies Law will be treated as share premium which is distributable under the Companies Law provided that immediately following the date on which the proposed distribution is proposed to be made, the Company is able to pay the debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. If the Company is forced to liquidate the Trust Account, the public shareholders would be distributed the amount in the Trust Account calculated as of the date that is two days prior to the distribution date (including any accrued interest).

The Initial Shareholders have agreed to (i) vote their insider shares (as well as any Public Shares acquired in or after the Initial Public Offering) in favor of any proposed Business Combination, (ii) waive their conversion rights with respect to their initial share (as well as any other shares acquired in or after the Initial Public Offering) in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their initial shares if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and (iv) not propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

On April 23, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved to amend the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to extend the date before which the Company must complete a business combination from April 26, 2021 to October 26, 2021 or such earlier date as determined by the Board. If the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination by October 26, 2021 or such longer period that its shareholders may approve, the Company 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 the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account not previously released to the Company for its tax obligations, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, seek to dissolve and liquidate subject to its obligations under British Virgin Islands law to provide for claims of creditors in all cases subject to and the other requirements of applicable law. This redemption of public shares from the Trust Account shall be effected as required by function of its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and prior to any voluntary winding up, although at all times subject to the Companies Act.

On October 22, 2021, the Company held a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to which its shareholders approved extending the Extension from October 26, 2021to April 26, 2022. In addition with the extension, the Company adopted the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association providing the same with regards to the date by which the Company must complete its initial business combination.

Following the redemption of public shares, the Company intends to enter “voluntary liquidation” which is the statutory process for formally closing and dissolving a company under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Given that the Company intends to enter voluntary liquidation following the redemption of public shareholders from the Trust Account, the Company does not expect that the voluntary liquidation process will cause any delay to the payment of redemption proceeds from its Trust Account. In connection with such a voluntary liquidation, the liquidator would give notice to creditors inviting them to submit their claims for payment, by notifying known creditors (if any) who have not submitted claims and by placing a public advertisement in at least one newspaper published in the British Virgin Islands and in at least one newspaper circulating in the location where the Company has its principal place of business, and taking any other steps the liquidator considers appropriate to identify its creditors, after which its remaining assets would be distributed. As soon as its affairs are fully wound-up, the liquidator must complete his statement of account and make a notice filing with the registrar. The Company would be dissolved once the registrar issues a Certificate of Dissolution.

Liquidation

The Company initially had until October 26, 2019 to consummate a Business Combination, however, if the Company anticipated that it would not be able to consummate a Business Combination by such deadline, it could extend the period to consummate a Business Combination by an additional six months (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a Business Combination). Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate the Business Combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to each applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account $1,148,799 on or prior to the date of such applicable deadline.

On October 18, 2019, the Company deposited $1,148,799 into its Trust Account (the “Extension Funds”) to extend the period to consummate a Business Combination until January 24, 2020. The Extension Funds were proceeds of a note in the principal amount of $1,148,800 (the “GN Note 1”) the Company issued to Global Nature Investment Holdings Limited (“Global Nature”), a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, its registered assignees or successor in interest (the “Payee”). The GN Note 1 was issued in connection with a non-binding letter of intent entered into by and between Alberton and Global Nature on September 13, 2019, to consummate a potential Business Combination with Global Nature (the “GN LOI”) (see Note 7).

On January 23, 2020, the Company deposited an additional $1,148,800 into the Trust Account to further extend the time available for the Company to complete a Business Combination from January 24, 2020 to April 27, 2020 (the “Extension”). The Extension was partially funded from a $780,000 loan provided by the Sponsor and $368,800 from the Company’s working capital. In connection with the loan provided by the Sponsor, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”) to the Sponsor in the aggregate principal amount of $780,000 (see Note 6).

On April 23, 2020, the Company held a special meeting pursuant to which the Company’s shareholders approved extending the Extension from April 27, 2020 to October 26, 2020 (the “Extended Date”). In connection with the approval of the extension, shareholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 10,073,512 of the Company’s ordinary shares. As a result, an aggregate of $105,879,118 (or $10.51 per share) was released from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such shareholders. On the same day, in connection with the Extension, the Company filed with the Registrar of the British Virgin Islands an amendment to Regulation 47 of its Articles of Association., and entered into an amendment to the trust agreement with the trust agent to extend the final liquidation date of the Trust Account to the 24-month anniversary of the closing of its Initial Public Offering, which is October 26, 2020.

The Company agreed to contribute, or cause to be contributed on its behalf (the “Cash Contribution”), $60,000 for the aggregate number of Public Shares that did not convert in connection with the Extension (the “Remaining Public Shares”) for each monthly period or portion thereof that is needed to complete a Business Combination (commencing on April 27, 2020 until the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination and the expiry of the Extension). The Cash Contribution will be deposited as additional interest on the proceeds in the Trust Account and will be distributed pro rata as a part of the redemption amount to each Remaining Public Share in connection with a future redemption. In addition, at the earlier date (the “Issuance Date”) of the consummation of its initial Business Combination and the expiry of the Extension, the Company will issue a dividend of one warrant to purchase one-half of one ordinary share for each Remaining Public Share. Each such warrant will be identical to the warrants included in the Units sold in the Company’s Initial Public Offering (the “Dividend”, collectively with the Cash Contribution, the “Contribution”).

On October 26, 2020, the Company held a special meeting pursuant to which the Company’s shareholders approved extending the Extended Date from October 26, 2020 to April 26, 2021 or such earlier date as determined by the Board was voted on and approved (the “Second Extended Date”). In connection with the approval of the extension (the “Second Extension”), shareholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 1,000 of the Company’s ordinary shares. As a result, an aggregate of $10,770 (or $10.77013 per share) was released from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such shareholders. On the same day, in connection with the Second Extension, the Company filed with the Registrar of the British Virgin Islands another amendment to Regulation 47 of its Articles of Association and entered into another amendment to the trust agreement with the trust agent to extend the final liquidation date of the Trust Account to the 30-month anniversary of the closing of its Initial Public Offering, which is April 26, 2021.

The Company agreed to contribute, or cause to be contributed on its behalf (the “Second Cash Contribution”), $0.05 per share for the aggregate number of Public Shares that did not convert in connection with the Second Extension (the “Remaining Public Shares Post Second Extension”) for each monthly period or portion thereof that is needed to complete a Business Combination (commencing on October 26, 2020 until the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination and the expiry of the Second Extension). The Second Cash Contribution will be deposited as additional interest on the proceeds in the Trust Account and will be distributed pro rata as a part of the redemption amount to each Remaining Public Share in connection with a future redemption.

If no shares are redeemed, the monthly payment to the trust account as additional interest will be $84,808.80, based on a commitment from its sponsor (the “Cash Contribution”).

The per-share pro rata portion of the trust account on March 18, 2021 (the “Record Date”) after taking into account taxes owed but not paid by such date (which is expected to be the same approximate amount two business days prior to the meeting) was approximately $10.97. If the Extension is approved and the Company takes the full six months to complete its initial business combination, the redemption amount per share at the meeting for such business combination or the Company’s subsequent liquidation will be approximately $11.33, in comparison to the current redemption amount of $10.97 (solely based on redemption price as of the current Record Date).

On April 23, 2021, the Company held its special meeting in lieu of the 2020 annual meeting of the shareholders. At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved to amend the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to extend the date before which the Company must complete a business combination from April 26, 2021 to October 26, 2021.

In connection with October 2021 Extension, the Company has committed to deposit $0.10 per share per month into the trust account as additional interests on the proceeds in the trust account based on a commitment from SolarMax as provided in the Merger Agreement.

Any additional loans that may be made to the Company to fund the Contribution will not bear interest and will be repayable by the Company upon consummation of a Business Combination. The Company’s officers, directors or affiliates will have the sole discretion whether to continue extending additional loans for additional calendar months until the Extended Date and if the officers, directors or affiliates determine not to continue extending additional loans for additional calendar months, their obligation to extend additional loans following such determination will terminate.

Through September 30, 2021, the Company deposited an aggregate of $1,167,567 into the Trust Account to fund the Extension. The Extension was partially funded from a $140,000 advance provided by the Sponsor (see Note 6), $100,000 from the AMC Note (defined below) and $927,567 from the SolarMax Notes (see Note 7).

NASDAQ Delisting Notification

On October 28, 2021, the Company received notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities (common stock, warrants, units and rights) would be subject to suspension and delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market due to the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement. Following the submission of a hearing request by the Company, a hearing is scheduled to be held on December 16, 2021. The hearing request results in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. In that regard, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Panel has the authority to grant the Company an additional extension not to exceed April 26, 2022.

As previously announced, the Company has entered into a binding definitive agreement to merge with SolarMax. The Company filed its most recent amendment to the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “S-4”) for the merger on October 8, 2021. The Company intends to mail the S-4 to shareholders promptly follow completion of the Securities and Exchange Commission review process and to hold the shareholder meeting at which it will seek approval for the merger transaction as soon as possible. The Company believes that the combined company will satisfy all requirements for initial listing upon completion of the merger; however, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company the required extension, the merger will be successfully completed or that the combined company will meet all applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b) (1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised, and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Note 2 — Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In the Company’s previously issued financial statements, a portion of the public shares were classified as permanent equity to maintain shareholders’ equity greater than $5,000,000 on the basis that the Company will consummate its initial Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. Thus, the Company can only complete a merger and continue to exist as a public company if there is sufficient Public Shares that do not redeem at the merger and so it is appropriate to classify the portion of its public shares required to keep its shareholders’ equity above the $5,000,000 threshold as “shares not subject to redemption.”

However, in light of recent comment letters issued by the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to several special purpose acquisition companies, management re-evaluated the Company’s application of ASC 480-10-99 to its accounting classification of public shares. Upon re-evaluation, management determined that the Public Shares issued during the initial public offering and pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment can be redeemed or become redeemable subject to the occurrence of future events considered outside the Company’s control under ASC 480-10-S99. Therefore, management concluded that all of the Public Shares should be classified as temporary equity in its entirety. As a result, management has noted a reclassification adjustment related to temporary equity and permanent equity. This resulted in an adjustment to the initial carrying value of the Public Shares with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital (to the extent available), accumulated deficit and ordinary shares.

In connection with the change in presentation for the Public Shares, the Company also restated its earnings per share calculation to allocate net income (loss) evenly to redeemable and nonredeemable ordinary shares. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of ordinary shares pro rata in the income (loss) of the Company.

In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements;” the Company evaluated the changes and has determined that the related impacts were material to any previously presented financial statements. Therefore, the Company, in consultation with its Audit Committee, concluded that its previously issued financial statements impacted should be restated to report all public shares as temporary equity.

The impact to the previously presented financial statements is presented below:

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Operating results for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Investments Held in Trust Account

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities.

Warrants Liabilities

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s unaudited condensed balance sheets.

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

The Company is considered an exempted British Virgin Islands Company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision is zero for the periods presented.

Net Loss per Ordinary Share (As Restated)

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be deemed dividends and to reduce from net income (loss) in arriving at income (loss) available to common shareholders. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the dividend warrants issued in April 2021 to purchase an aggregate of 6,616,116 shares and 5,908,876 shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30 2021 and 2020, respectively. As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for the periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

●

Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

ALBERTON ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

(UNAUDITED)

●

Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

●

Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

		Level		September 30, 2021				December 31, 2020
Warrant liabilities – Private Warrants		3		$	416,516			$	522,579

The change in the fair value of warrant liabilities regarding Level 3 fair value measurements is summarized as follows

Warrant liabilities at December 31, 2019	$	533,319
Change in fair value of warrants liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2020		(10,740	)
Warrant liabilities at December 31, 2020		522,579
Change in fair value of warrants liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021		(106,063	)
Warrant liabilities at September 30, 2021	$	416,516

The Private Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 as the Company concluded that its Private Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s ordinary shares because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares and are presented within warrant liabilities on the Company’s accompanying balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the statement of operations.

The fair value of the Private Warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The application of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of a number of inputs and significant assumptions including volatility. Significant judgment is required in determining the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. Due to the limited history of trading of the Company’s ordinary shares, the Company determined expected volatility based on a peer group of publicly traded companies. The following reflects the inputs and assumptions used:

	September 30, 2021			December 31, 2020
Stock price	$	11.33		$	11.41
Exercise price	$	11.50		$	11.50
Risk-free interest rate		1.02	%		0.40	%
Expected term (in years)		5.25			5.25
Expected dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%
Expected volatility		40.72	%		41.59	%
Merger probability adjustment		60.00	%		75.00	%

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 4 — Initial Public Offering

Public Unit

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on October 26, 2018, the Company sold 10,000,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. On November 20, 2018, in connection with the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 1,487,992 Public Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”), and one right (“Public Right”). Each whole redeemable warrant entitles the holder to purchase one half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 (see Note 11). Every 10 Public Rights will convert automatically into one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination (see Note 11).

If the Company does not complete its Business Combination within the necessary time period described in Note 1, the Public Warrants and Public Rights will expire and be worthless. Since the Company is not required to net cash settle the Public Warrants and Public Rights, and the Public Warrants and Public Rights are convertible upon the consummation of the Business Combination, management determined that the Public Warrants and Public Rights are classified within shareholders’ equity as “Additional paid-in capital” upon their issuance in accordance with ASC 815-40. The proceeds from the sale are allocated to Public Shares and Public Warrants and Public Rights based on the relative fair value of the securities in accordance with ASC 470-20-30. The value of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights was based on the closing price paid by investors.

At the closing of the Initial Public Offering and over-allotment option, the Company paid an upfront underwriting discount of $2,000,000 and $297,598, 2.0% of the per unit offering price to the underwriter, respectively, with an additional fee of $3,500,000 and $520,797 (the “Deferred Discount”), 3.5% of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the completion of the Business Combination, respectively. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not close a Business Combination, the underwriter has waived its right to receive the Deferred Discount. The underwriter is not entitled to any interest accrued on the Deferred Discount. Total offering costs were $3,060,924, which consisted of $2,297,598 of underwriter’s commissions and $763,326 of other offering costs.

Purchase Option

On October 26, 2018, the Company sold the underwriter (and its designees), for $100, an option to purchase up to 500,000 Units exercisable at $11.50 per Unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $5,750,000) commencing on the consummation of a Business Combination. The purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expires five years from the effective date of the registration statement related to the Initial Public Offering. The Units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to those offered in the Initial Public Offering, with 500,000 ordinary shares, warrants to purchase 250,000 shares and rights to receive 50,000 ordinary shares that may be issued upon exercise of the option.

The Company accounted for the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Initial Public Offering resulting in a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. The Company estimated the fair value of this unit purchase option to be approximately $1,603,060 (or $3.206 per Unit) using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the unit purchase option granted to the underwriters was estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 38%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 2.29% (the interest rate on a three-month US Treasury Bill on October 26, 2018) and (3) expected life of five years.

Note 5 — Private Placements

Simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 300,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Unit (for a total purchase price of $3,000,000). On November 20, 2018, in connection with the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of additional 29,760 Private Units, generating gross proceeds of $297,600. The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.

The Private Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering except the Private Units are non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The purchasers of the Private Units have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except to the same permitted transferees as the founder shares) until the completion of the Business Combination.

If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds of the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

Note 6 — Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In August 2018, the Company issued 1,725,000 Class B ordinary shares to its initial shareholders as founder shares, of which an aggregate of 1,650,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued for an aggregate purchase price of $17,250 or $0.010454545 per share, and an aggregate of 75,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued for services rendered. On September 10, 2018, the Company issued an additional 1,150,000 Class B ordinary shares to its initial shareholders as founder shares, of which an aggregate of 1,135,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued for an aggregate purchase price of $2,300 or approximately $0.00202643 per share, and an aggregate of 15,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued for services rendered. On September 14, 2018, the Company’s initial shareholders converted all of their Class B ordinary shares, constituting all of the outstanding Class B ordinary shares of the Company, into Class A ordinary shares and, immediately thereafter, the Company amended and restated its Memorandum and Articles of Association to eliminate the Class B ordinary shares and re-designate the Class A ordinary shares as “ordinary shares.” As a result, prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s initial shareholders held 2,875,000 founder shares. The 2,875,000 founder shares included an aggregate of up to 375,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised by the underwriters in full or in part. On November 20, 2018, as a result of the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option, 3,002 founder shares were forfeited.

The founder shares are identical to the ordinary shares included in the units sold in the Initial Public Offering. However, the Initial Shareholders have agreed to (A) to vote any shares owned by them in favor of any proposed Business Combination, (B) not to convert any shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial Business Combination or any amendment to the Company’s charter documents prior to consummation of an initial Business Combination, or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a proposed initial Business Combination and (C) that the founder shares shall not participate in any liquidating distribution from the Trust Account upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated.

Additionally, subject to certain limited exceptions, the Initial Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the founder shares, the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination, and with respect to the remaining 50% of the founder shares, upon six months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in each case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Related Party Advances

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received an aggregate of $273,640 in advances from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer for working capital purposes, of which $140,000 was used to partially fund the Extension. The advances are non-interest bearing and due on demand.

These notes shall be paid off in cash upon the closing of the Merger. Otherwise, the due date will be upon the earlier of the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated or the date an Event of Default shall occur. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, advances of $651,369 and $128,466 were outstanding and included in due to related parties in the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets.

Related Party Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. As provided in the Merger Agreement, as amended, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid in cash upon the closing of the Merger. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans.

On July 6, 2018, the Sponsor loaned the Company $300,000 under a promissory note (the “Sponsor Note 1”), a portion of which was used to pay for costs associated with the Initial Public Offering. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the closing of a Business Combination. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was $300,000 outstanding under the Sponsor Note 1.

On January 24, 2020, the Sponsor loaned the Company an additional $780,000 under a promissory note (the “Sponsor Note 2”) in order to partially fund the amount required to be deposited into the Trust Account to extend the period of time required by the Company to complete a Business Combination. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the closing of a Business Combination. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was $780,000 outstanding under the Sponsor Note 2.

Administrative Service Fee

The Company has agreed, commencing on August 1, 2018, to pay the Sponsor, a monthly fee of an aggregate of $1,000 for general and administrative services including office space, utilities and secretarial support, due before the first day of each month. This arrangement will terminate upon the completion of a Business Combination or a distribution of the Trust Account to the public shareholders. For each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred $3,000 of administrative fees. For each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred $9,000 of administrative fees. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $15,000 and $6,000, respectively, of such fees are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets.

Other than the $1,000 per month administrative fee and the $1,080,000 of non-interest bearing loans described above, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fee, consulting fees and other similar fees, will be paid to our initial shareholders, members of our management team or their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to, or in order to effectuate the consummation of, our initial Business Combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, such individuals will receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with activities on our behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses, performing business due diligence on suitable target businesses and Business Combination as well as traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses to examine their operations. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by the Company.

AmcAsset holds 100% equity interest of Quest Mark Capital Inc., a California corporation located in Los Angeles, and Qingdao Zhongbiao Distressed Asset Management Co., Ltd (“Zhongbiao”), to which AMC Sino is related. The principal of the AMC Note of $500,000 will be paid in installments according to the needs of the Company. The AMC Note is non-interest bearing and is payable on the date on which the Company consummates its initial business combination with AMC Payee or another qualified target company, subject to certain mandatory repayment arrangement set forth in the AMC Note. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time without penalty. On May 5, 2020, the Company received first installment of $100,000 under the AMC Note.

Note 9 — Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company records loss contingencies in its financial statements only for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Where a range of loss can be reasonably estimated with no best estimate in the range, the Company records the minimum estimated liability. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved is material. The Company continuously assesses the potential liability related to the Company’s pending litigation and revises its estimates when additional information becomes available. With respect to the Company’s outstanding legal matters, the Company believe that the amount or estimable range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if one or more of these ordinary-course legal matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management's expectations, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, including in a particular reporting period, could be materially adversely affected.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or complete the SolarMax Business Combination, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on October 23, 2018, the holders of the founder shares, Private Units (and underlying securities) and units that may be issued in payment of Working Capital Loans (and all underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority-in-interest of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Note 10 — Deferred Underwriter Compensation

The Company is obligated to pay the underwriters a deferred underwriting discounts and commissions equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Business Combination, $4,020,797 (with consideration of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option on November 20, 2018) will be paid to the underwriters from the funds held in the Trust Account. No discounts or commissions will be paid with respect to the purchase of the Private Units.

Note 11 — Shareholders’ Deficit (As Restated)

Preferred Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of no par value preferred shares, with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there are no preferred shares designated, issued or outstanding.

Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 ordinary shares, no par value. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had issued an aggregate of 3,201,758 and 3,201,758 ordinary shares, excluding 1,278,411 and 1,413,480 shares of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively.

Warrants - Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one-half (1/2) of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole ordinary share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of the completion of the Business Combination or 12 months from the date of the effective date of the registration statement. However, no warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” for this purpose will mean the average reported last sale price of the ordinary shares for the 20 trading days ending on the third trading day immediately prior to the date of exercise. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The warrants issued in the Private Units (“Private Warrants”) are identical to the Public Warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering except the Private Warrants will be non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the Private Warrants and any warrants issued to its initial shareholders, officers or directors in payment of working capital loans made to the Company, but including outstanding warrants issued upon exercise of the unit purchase option issued to Chardan Capital Markets LLC), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant,

●

at any time after the warrants become exercisable,

●

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder,

●

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and

●

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.”

On January 19, 2021, the board of the Company approved the issuance of 1,414,480 dividend warrants to those public shareholders who were shareholders on April 21, 2020 and did not exercise their right of redemption in connection with the April 2020 extension, and the Company instructed such issuance. The dividend warrants were issued on April 8, 2021. The dividend warrants are identical to the warrants included in the units sold in the Company’s Initial Public Offering, for which one dividend warrant has the right to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share. The Company accounted for the fair value of the dividend warrants using the closing market price of the Company’s Public Warrants on April 8, 2021 and determined the aggregate fair value of $636,375. The dividend warrants were recorded as a reduction of retained earnings and an additional to ordinary shares capital of the Company.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has outstanding warrants of 13,232,232 and 11,817,752 to purchase an aggregate of 6,616,116 shares and 5,908,876 shares of the Company’s ordinary shares, respectively, with a weighted average exercise of $11.50 per whole share.

Rights - Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if a holder of such right converted all ordinary shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary shares basis and each holder of rights will be required to affirmatively covert its rights in order to receive 1/10 of a share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

The rights included in the Private Units sold in the private placement are identical to the rights included in the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that, among others, the rights including the shares issuable upon exchange of such rights, are being purchased pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and will become tradable only after certain conditions are met or the resale of such rights (including underlying securities) is registered under the Securities Act. Refer to Note 5 Private Placement for more details.

Note 12 — Reconciliation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Ordinary Share (As Restated)

In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be deemed dividends and to reduce from net income (loss) in arriving at net income (loss) available to common shareholders. Accordingly, basic and diluted adjusted net loss per ordinary share is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. References to “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” are to Alberton Acquisition Corporation, except where the context requires otherwise. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Restatement

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations has been amended and restated to give effect to the restatement of our unaudited financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2021 (the “Restatement”). In the Original Report, our public shares were not accurately described and recorded in the notes to our financial statements.

The Restatement is more fully described in Notes 2 and 3 to the Notes to Financial Statements contained herein.

Overview

We were incorporated on February 16, 2018 under the laws of British Virgin Islands for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business are not limited to a particular industry or geographic location. We have not selected any target business for our initial Business Combination.

We presently have no revenue, have had losses since inception from incurring formation and operating costs and have had no operations other than identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates. We have relied upon the sale of our securities and loans from Hong Ye Hong Kong Shareholding Co., Limited (our “Sponsor”) to fund our operations.

On October 26, 2018, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one redeemable warrant to purchase one-half of one ordinary share and one right to receive 1/10 of an ordinary share upon the consummation of our initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. On October 26, 2018, simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated a private placement with our Sponsor of 300,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $3,000,000. On November 20, 2018, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part and purchased 1,487,992 over-allotment option Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $14,879,920. On November 20, 2018, simultaneously with the sale of the over-allotment units, the Company consummated the private sale of an additional 29,760 Private Units to our Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $297,600. On November 20, 2018, the underwriters waived their right to exercise the reminder of the over-allotment option. In connection with such waiver, an aggregate of 3,002 founder shares held by our initial shareholders were forfeited.

A total of $114,879,920 of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering (including the partial exercise of the over-allotment option) and the private placements were deposited in a Trust Account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of Initial Public Offering and the private placements, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a Business Combination.

Recent Developments

Agreement and Plan of Merger with SolarMax

On September 3, 2020, we entered into a certain letter of intent for the business combination with SolarMax (the “SolarMax LOI”) and formally started to discuss the related matters for the business combination.

On October 27, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Alberton Merger Subsidiary Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Nevada on October 16, 2020 (“Merger Sub”), and SolarMax. The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into SolarMax (the “Merger”), with SolarMax continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”): (i) all shares of SolarMax common stock (the “SolarMax Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive the Stockholder Merger Consideration (as defined below); (ii) each outstanding option to acquire SolarMax Stock (whether vested or unvested) shall be assumed by combined entity and automatically converted into an option to acquire shares of combined entity’s common stock, with its price and number of shares equitably adjusted based on the conversion ratio, which is the number of shares of Alberton common stock issuable in respect of one share of SolarMax Stock (each, an “Assumed Option”) and (iii) each outstanding convertible notes of SolarMax shall become convertible into shares of Alberton common stock determined by dividing the conversion price of such notes at the Effective Time by the applicable conversion ratio.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, immediately prior to the Closing, we will re-domesticate from a British Virgin Islands corporation into a Nevada corporation so as to continue as a Nevada corporation (the “Redomestication”). At the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), we will change its name to “SolarMax Technology Holdings, Inc.” In connection with the Redomestication, the provision in Alberton’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association which provides that we have net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001 upon such consummation of the business combination is to be amended to require that the net tangible asset test be met “prior to or upon” consummation of the business combination.

Prior to the Closing, we will continue out of the British Virgin Islands and domesticate as a Nevada corporation and will no longer be considered a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands.

As consideration for the Merger, SolarMax shareholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding holders of SolarMax options) collectively will receive from us, in the aggregate, a number of Alberton common stock equal to: (i) $300,000,000, divided by (ii) the Redemption Price (defined below) (such shares of Alberton common stock is referred as the “Stockholder Merger Consideration”). The holders of SolarMax options shall receive Assumed Options to purchase the number of shares of Alberton common stock as described above in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. For the purpose of the Merger Agreement, Redemption Price means a price per share equal to the price at which each share of Alberton common stock is redeemed pursuant to the redemption by our public stockholders in connection with our initial business combination, as required by its amended and restated certificate of incorporation immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Redemption”).Consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the respective parties of a number of conditions, including the approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by SolarMax’s and the Company’s respective stockholders. Other closing conditions include, among others: (i) the respective representations of the parties to each other being true and correct; (ii) receipt of requisite regulatory approvals; (iii) no law or order preventing or prohibiting the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (iv) no pending litigation to enjoin or restrict the consummation of the Closing; (v) we having at least $5,000,001 in net tangible assets as of the Closing, after giving effect to the completion of the Redemption, consummation of the Merger and any private financings; (vi) the Redomestication, (vii) the election or appointment of members to the our board of directors as described above; (vii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and (viii) being advised by Nasdaq that upon consummation of the Merger, we shall continue to be listed and all outstanding deficiencies have been addressed to the satisfaction of Nasdaq.

On October 27, 2020, Alberton, Merger Sub and SolarMax entered into an amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “First Amendment”) to increase certain Extension Loans (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to be provided by SolarMax from $60,000 monthly to $70,674 monthly. As a result, the First Amendment (i) amends Section 5.12(a) of the Merger Agreement by changing clause (x) to read as follows: “(x) $60,000 per month prior to the date of this Amendment and $70,674 commencing with payments made on or after the date of this Amendment or” (“Section 5.12 Amendment”); and (ii) provides that, to the extent that the payments made by SolarMax exceed the amount of the Extension Loans (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to be made by Alberton pursuant to the Section 5.12(a) prior to Section 5.12 Amendment, Alberton shall, at the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement), cause to be delivered to the Surviving Corporation (as defined in the Merger Agreement) for cancellation, such number of Sponsor Shares as have a value, determined as provided in the Merger Agreement, equal to such excess.

On March 19, 2021, Alberton, Merger Sub and SolarMax entered into an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, Alberton agreed to make up to two additional Extension Loans (“Additional Loans”) in the amount of $70,674 per month.

The Merger also calls for additional agreements, including, among others, the Lock-Up Agreements and the Voting Agreement, as described elsewhere in the current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 28, 2020. The First Amendment and the Second Amendment are incorporated by reference from the current reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 3, 2020 and March 23, 2021, respectively.

From September 2020 to December 2020, the Company issued unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $261,348 to SolarMax (the “SolarMax Notes 1”) to finance the extension of the Business Combination. The SolarMax Notes 1 are non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Business Combination, (ii) the Second Extended Date, or (iii) the date on which either (x) the letter of intent dated September 3, 2020 (the “LOI”) or (y) the Acquisition Agreement, as defined in the LOI, are terminated for any reason.

SolarMax Notes 3 are non-interest bearing, unsecured and payable upon the first to occur of (i) the Closing Date, as defined in the Merger Agreement, or (ii) the date on which, pursuant to the organization documents of Alberton, Alberton must complete a Business Combination, which date is presently October 26, 2021, or (iii) the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated or (iv) the date an Event of Default shall occur.

NASDAQ Delisting Notification

On October 28, 2021, the Company received notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities (common stock, warrants, units and rights) would be subject to suspension and delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market due to the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement. Following the submission of a request of hearing by the Company, a hearing is scheduled to be held on December 16, 2021. The hearing request results in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. In that regard, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Panel has the authority to grant the Company an additional extension not to exceed April 26, 2022.

As previously announced, the Company has entered into a binding definitive agreement to merge with SolarMax Technology, Inc. The Company filed its most recent amendment to the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “S-4”) for the merger on October 8, 2021. The Company intends to mail the S-4 to shareholders promptly follow completion of the Securities and Exchange Commission review process and to hold the shareholder meeting at which it will seek approval for the merger transaction as soon as possible. The Company believes that the combined company will satisfy all requirements for initial listing upon completion of the merger; however, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company the required extension, the merger will be successfully completed or that the combined company will meet all applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

October 2021 Special Shareholder Meeting of the Shareholders

We had until October 26, 2021 to consummate a Business Combination. However, as we anticipated that we may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by October 26, 2021, we extended the period of time to consummate a Business Combination until April 26, 2022 or such an earlier date as determined by our board. On October 22, 2021, we held a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to which our shareholders approved extending the Extension from October 26, 2021 to April 26, 2022 (the “October 2021 Extension”). In connection with the approval of the October 2021 Extension, shareholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 50 of our ordinary shares. As a result, an aggregate of $571.56 (or $11.43 per share) was released from our Trust Account to pay such shareholders. In connection with October 2021 Extension, the Company has committed to deposit $0.10 per share per month into the trust account as additional interests on the proceeds in the trust account based on a commitment from SolarMax as provided in the Merger Agreement.

Results of Operations

Our entire activity from inception up to October 26, 2018 was related to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering and general and administrative activities. Since the Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of Business Combination candidates, and we will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments. We are incurring expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance).

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $152,593, consisting of $175,736 of operating costs, consisting mostly of general and administrative expenses, offset by $360 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account and $22,783 gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we had a net loss of $84,230, consisting of 100,347 of operating costs, consisting mostly of general and administrative expenses, offset by $380 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account, $3 of interest income from deposits in our corporate bank account and $15,734 gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $433,831, consisting of $541,000 of operating costs, consisting mostly of general and administrative expenses, offset by $1,106 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account and $106,063 gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had a net income of $202,621, consisting of $559,019 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account, $835 of interest income from deposits in our corporate bank account and $38,214 gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities, offset by $395,447 of operating costs, consisting mostly of general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, we had cash outside the Trust Account of $1,331 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash is held in the Trust Account and is generally unavailable for our use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem ordinary shares. As of September 30, 2021, none of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above.

Until consummation of the Business Combination, we will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional funding that may be loaned to us by our Sponsor, for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

If our estimates of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the Business Combination and will need to raise additional capital. In this event, our officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we consummate an initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us upon consummation of the Business Combination, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. The terms of such loans by our initial shareholders, officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial Business Combination. Following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Going Concern

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after April 26, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a monthly fee of $1,000 for general and administrative services including office space, utilities and secretarial support. We began incurring these fees on August 1, 2018 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination or our liquidation.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting discounts and commissions equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Business Combination, $4,020,797 (with consideration of the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option on November 20, 2018) will be paid to the underwriters from the funds held in the Trust Account. No discounts or commissions will be paid with respect to the purchase of the Private Units.

As of the date thereof, we have borrowed from our related parties and issued promissory notes to various parties including our Sponsor in the aggregate amount of $4,758,081. In connection with extensions to complete the initial business combination, we issued a series of unsecured promissory notes to SolarMax in an aggregate amount of $1,004,272. To the extent that these notes exceed $360,000, the Sponsor agreed to transfer to Successor for cancellation sponsor shares equal to such excess.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The Company has the following critical accounting policies:

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The net proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the events that led to our restatement of our financial statements for the periods from March 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020 as well as restatements related to the classification of redeemable ordinary shares for the periods from March 31, 2019 to September 30, 2021, management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for warrants issued in connection with our initial public offering. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analyses as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, as the circumstances that led to the restatement of our year-end financial statements on June 18, 2021 had not yet been identified. Due solely to the events that led to our restatement of our financial statements for the periods from March 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020 as well as restatement related to the classification of redeemable ordinary shares for the periods from March 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020, management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for warrants issued in connection with our initial public offering, as described in Note 2 to the Notes to our December 31, 2020 Financial Statements entitled “Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements.”

While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
