4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In September 2016, the Company issued 2,875,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the Sponsor (the "Founder Shares") in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000. The 2,875,000 Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part. As a result of the underwriters' election to exercise their over-allotment option in full on June 23, 2017, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

In conjunction with their investment in the Private Units, the underwriters or their designees also purchased membership interests in the Sponsor, through which the underwriters or their designees collectively have a pecuniary interest in 230,000 Founder Shares, pursuant to a separate private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement. The Sponsor beneficially owns the Founder Shares allocated to the underwriters or their designees and retains sole voting and dispositive power over such securities until the closing of a Business Combination, at which time the Sponsor will distribute the Founder Shares to the underwriters or their designees for no additional consideration. Upon receipt of the Founder Shares, the underwriters or their designees will no longer retain their ownership interests in the Sponsor.

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until the earlier to occur of (i) one year after the completion of a Business Combination, and (ii) the date following the completion of a Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company's stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of the Company's common stock for cash, securities or other property the ("Lock-Up Period") (see Note 6 - Term Sheet). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after its initial Business Combination, then the lock-up will terminate.

Related Party Advances

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Sponsor advanced an aggregate of $15,479 to be used for working capital purposes. The advances were non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repaid an aggregate amount of $100,000 of such advances and the remaining balance of $118,509 was converted into loans under the Promissory Note described below. Advances amounting to $-0- and $203,030 were outstanding as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and included in due to related party in the accompanying condensed balance sheets (see Administrative Service Fee below).

Administrative Service Fee

The Company agreed, commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company's consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $30,000 of administrative service fees and for each of the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $60,000 of administrative service fees. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $226,000 and $166,000, respectively, is payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $226,000 of the amounts due for such fees was converted into loans under the Promissory Note described below. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $-0- and $166,000 is included in due to related party in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

Convertible Promissory Note

On March 15, 2019, the Company issued the Sponsor the Promissory Note, pursuant to which all outstanding advances were converted into loans under the Promissory Note. The Promissory Note is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the liquidation of the Company. Up to $1,000,000 of the loans under the Promissory Note may be converted, at the Sponsor's discretion, into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Units. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Sponsor advanced the Company $164,102 under the Expense Reimbursement Agreement (as defined in Note 5), which was converted into loans under the Promissory Note. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repaid $80,000 of the Promissory Note.

In connection with the Term Sheet entered into on April 15, 2019, a stockholder of the Company (the "Stockholder") paid the Sponsor $650,000 to purchase such obligations owed to the Sponsor under the Promissory Note (see Note 6).

As of June 30, 2019, there was $322,043 outstanding under the Promissory Note.

Related Party Loans

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. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. 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. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Units. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $322,043 outstanding under the Promissory Note.
