We are a newly organized blank check company. Our sponsor is an indirect portfolio company of KSL Capital Partners V and its parallel funds and is controlled by KSL Capital Partners V GP. We intend to capitalize on the ability of our management team, led by Eric Affeldt, and the broader KSL Capital Partners platform to identify, acquire and operate a business in the travel and leisure industry, including businesses related to travel and leisure (although we are not limited to such industry). We believe the experience of our management team makes us well situated to identify, source, negotiate and execute an initial business combination with an attractive company or business in the travel and leisure industry. Our management team and the broader KSL Capital Partners platform has an extensive network of relationships in the travel and leisure industry and significant experience in identifying and executing acquisitions in travel and leisure, including consumer businesses related thereto. In addition, our management team has a history of preparing for and executing initial public offerings and scaling early stage investment platforms.
