The units will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and will trade under the ticker symbol "HUGSU" beginning on February 25, 2021.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Piper Sandler & Co. are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering. The Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 units at the initial public offering price to cover over-allotments, if any.
