As a result, $201,543,292 remained in the Trust Account as of January 19, 2017. <font style="background-color: white;">In addition, 101,519 public shares were not voted and, for that reason, the Company cannot use the interest earned on those shares for the Company’s working capital requirements. As a result, $1,018,002 of the funds that remain in the Trust Account are for the benefit of those public stockholders who did not vote on the extension amendment and will disburse such amount and all additional interest earned on those funds from January 19, 2017 to such public stockholders if and when they present their shares for conversion.

If the Company is unable to consummate an initial Business Combination within such time period for whatever reason (such as if not enough holders approve of the proposed business combination or too many holders seek conversion of their shares), it will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account and then seek to dissolve and liquidate. In such event, the warrants will expire worthless. The Company expects the redemption price to be $10.00 per share of common stock, without taking into account any interest earned on such funds. However, the Company may not be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of public stockholders.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">We believe the $296,311 in our working capital account on March 31, 2017, plus any additional interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs, to pay any taxes that we may owe and to complete our initial Business Combination by July 24, 2017. We may need to seek additional capital to continue our operations. If additional capital is required, we intend to borrow sufficient funds from Quinpario Partners, LLC or the management team to operate until we close our initial Business Combination. Neither Quinpario Partners, LLC nor our management team is under any obligation to advance funds to us. Any loan would be evidenced by a non-interest bearing promissory note. Up to $1,500,000 of such notes may be convertible into additional Private Placement Warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant of the post business combination entity. Any such loans would be repaid only from funds held outside the Trust Account or from funds released to us upon completion of our initial Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.</p></div>

Conditionally redeemable shares (including 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, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s 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, at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"><b>Net income (loss) per common share</b></font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company has not considered the effect of (i) warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering to purchase 17,500,000 shares of the Company and (ii) the Private Placement Warrants to purchase 9,000,000 shares of the Company, in the calculation of net income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent on the occurrence of future events. 18,392,883 and 33,347,737 shares subject to possible redemption at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively, were also excluded from the calculation of basic income (loss) per common share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of earnings in the Trust Account. At March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, the Company did not have any other dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per common share is the same as basic income (loss) per common share for the periods. </p><p style="font: 10pt/normal

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.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2017. FASB ASC 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 recognizes accrued interest and penalties as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at March 31, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company may be subject to potential examination by U.S. federal and state authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months. Federal and Missouri income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 are currently open to examination although no audits are ongoing.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"><b> </b></font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"><b>Recently issued accounting standards</b></font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"><b> </b></font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if

Each warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of an initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption.

The managing member of the Sponsor is Quinpario Partners LLC (“Quinpario Partners”), an entity affiliated with several of our officers and directors. On November 10, 2014, the Sponsor transferred 300,000 Insider Shares to independent directors of the Company. The Insider Shares held by our initial stockholders, which include the Sponsor, management team and directors, included an aggregate of up to 1,312,500 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that our initial stockholders would collectively own 20.0% of our issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming they did not purchase units in the Initial Public Offering). On January 22, 2015, the underwriters informed the Company that they were waiving their right to exercise any portion of their over-allotment option. As a result, the Sponsor forfeited an aggregate of 1,312,500 Insider Shares, leaving the initial stockholders with an aggregate of 8,750,000 Insider Shares. The Company has recorded the forfeited shares as treasury stock and simultaneously retired and cancelled the shares and charged additional paid-in capital.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #1f497d; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Insider Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until (1) with respect to 20% of the Insider Shares, the consummation of an initial Business Combination and (2) with respect to the remaining 80% of the Insider Shares, the earlier of one year after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination or if after 150 days after an initial Business Combination, the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period.

Conditionally redeemable shares (including 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, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s 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, at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.</font></p></div>

The Company has not considered the effect of (i) warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering to purchase 17,500,000 shares of the Company and (ii) the Private Placement Warrants to purchase 9,000,000 shares of the Company, in the calculation of net income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent on the occurrence of future events. 18,392,883 and 33,347,737 shares subject to possible redemption at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively, were also excluded from the calculation of basic income (loss) per common share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of earnings in the Trust Account. At March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, the Company did not have any other dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per common share is the same as basic income (loss) per common share for the periods.</p></div>

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.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2017. FASB ASC 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 recognizes accrued interest and penalties as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at March 31, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.</font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0.5in; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></p><p style="font: 10pt/normal 'times new roman', times, serif; margin: 0px; color: #000000; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; widows: 1; font-stretch: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><font style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company may be subject to potential examination by U.S. federal and state authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months. Federal and Missouri income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 are currently open to examination although no audits are ongoing.</font></p></div>

Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one share of common stock at a price of $5.75 per half share. Warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. Each warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of an initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption. We may redeem the outstanding warrants (excluding the Private Placement Warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant.
