1 - DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Capital Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on October 20, 2021. The Company was formed for the
purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination
with one or more businesses (the "Business Combination"). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for
purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company
is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
of February 3, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from October 20, 2021 (inception) through
February 3, 2022 relates to the Company's formation and the initial public offering ("Initial Public Offering"), which
is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination,
at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial
Public Offering. The Company has selected November 30 as its fiscal year end.
registration statement for the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 31, 2022. On February 3, 2022,
the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 8,625,000 units ("Units" and, with respect to the shares of common
stock included in the Units being offered, the "Public Shares"), generating gross proceeds of $86,250,000, which is described
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale of 473,750 units (the "Private Placement
Units") at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in private placements to Alset Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the "Sponsor")
generating gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $4,737,500.
Company's management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Proposed Public Offering
and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating
a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company
must complete one or more initial Business Combinations with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal
to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes
payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company
owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target
business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "Investment Company Act"). Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, management has agreed that an amount equal
to at least $10.10 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including proceeds of the Private Placement Units, will be held in a
trust account ("Trust Account"), located in the United States and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the
meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment
company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment
Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution
of the funds held in the Trust Account, as described below.
Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the "Public Stockholders") with the opportunity to redeem
all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination
or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder
approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to
redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.10 per Public
Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion
of a Business Combination with respect to the Company's warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a
redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Accounting
Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity."
of the Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company's
liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company's Business Combination and in connection
with certain amendments to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99,
redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside
of permanent equity. Given that the Public Shares will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., public warrants), the initial
carrying value of Class A common stock classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC
470-20. The Class A common stock is subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, we
have the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that
it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize
changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value
at the end of each reporting period. We have elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement will be treated
as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital). The Public
Shares are redeemable and will be classified as such on the balance sheet until such date that a redemption event takes place. Redemptions
of the Company's Public Shares may be subject to the satisfaction of conditions, including minimum cash conditions, pursuant to
an agreement relating to the Company's Business Combination.
Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that it does
not then become subject to the SEC's "penny stock" rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which
may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval of the Business Combination,
the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business
Combination, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a stockholder vote is not required by applicable law or
stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company
will, pursuant to its second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), conduct
the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and file tender
offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required
by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other
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 stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed
to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor
of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and
if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.
