Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

As previously disclosed in our definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 7, 2010, we held a special meeting of our stockholders on January 20, 2010 to approve an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which we must complete a business combination before we are required to liquidate from January 23, 2010 to February 16, 2010, and to approve an amendment to the trust agreement entered into in connection with our initial public offering to extend the date by which our trust account must be liquidated to February 16, 2010. At the special meeting, the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock voted in favor of the amendment to our certificate of incorporation and the holders of a majority of our public shares voted in favor of the amendment to our trust agreement. Accordingly, on January 20, 2010, we filed an amendment to our certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the state of Delaware effecting the amendment approved by our stockholders.

The press release announcing these events is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.
