SUBJECT TO COMPLETION

PROXY STATEMENT FOR
EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF
ISOS ACQUISITION CORPORATION
(A CAYMAN ISLANDS EXEMPTED COMPANY)

___________________________________

PROSPECTUS FOR
166,613,033 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND
13,892,394 REDEEMABLE WARRANTS
OF ISOS ACQUISITION CORPORATION

(AFTER ITS DOMESTICATION AS A CORPORATION INCORPORATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE), THE CONTINUING ENTITY FOLLOWING THE DOMESTICATION, WHICH WILL BE RENAMED “BOWLERO CORP.” IN CONNECTION WITH THE BUSINESS COMBINATION DESCRIBED HEREIN

____________________________________

The board of directors of Isos Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Isos”), has unanimously approved (1) the domestication of Isos as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”); (2) the merger of Bowlero with and into Isos, with Isos surviving such merger (the “Business Combination”), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A (the “Business Combination Agreement”), as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus; and (3) the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and documents related thereto. Following the Domestication and in connection with the Business Combination, Isos will change its name to “Bowlero Corp.” For purposes of this proxy statement/prospectus, Isos after the Domestication (and, to the extent applicable, the Business Combination) is referred to as “New Bowlero.”

The Isos units, Isos Class A ordinary shares and Isos warrants are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbols “ISOS.U,” “ISOS” and “ISOS WS,” respectively. Isos will apply for listing, to be effective at the closing of the Business Combination, of New Bowlero Class A common stock and New Bowlero warrants on the NYSE under the proposed symbols “BOWL” and “BOWL.W”, respectively. It is a condition of the consummation of the Business Combination described above that Isos receives confirmation from the NYSE that the securities have been conditionally approved for listing on the NYSE, but there can be no assurance such listing conditions will be met or that Isos will obtain such confirmation from the NYSE. If such listing conditions are not met or if such confirmation is not obtained, the Business Combination described above will not be consummated unless the Stock Issuance condition set forth in the Business Combination Agreement is waived by the applicable parties.

As a result of the Business Combination, all Bowlero Stockholders, other than Tom Shannon, Bowlero’s CEO, will receive New Bowlero Class A common stock. Mr. Shannon will receive New Bowlero Class B common stock in the Business Combination. New Bowlero Class B common stock will rank pari passu with New Bowlero Class A common stock in all respects, except that it will be entitled to super voting rights of ten (10) votes per share as described herein. See “Description of Securities After the Business Combination — Common Stock.” Upon consummation of the Business Combination, for purposes of the NYSE, New Bowlero will be a “controlled company,” although New Bowlero does not currently intend to take advantage of any exemptions from corporate governance standards available to controlled companies. Under the NYSE rules, controlled companies are companies of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, a group, or another company. Upon completion of the Business Combination, Mr. Shannon will, directly or indirectly, hold approximately 84.7% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s capital stock.

This proxy statement/prospectus provides shareholders of Isos with detailed information about the proposed business combination and other matters to be considered at the extraordinary general meeting of Isos. We encourage you to read this entire document, including the Annexes and other documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 38 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION OR RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

Each of Proposals No. 1 through 7 (including each of 3(A) through 3(H) (each, a “Condition Precedent Proposal”) is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.

These items of business are described in this proxy statement/prospectus, which we encourage you to read carefully and in its entirety before voting.

Only holders of record of ordinary shares at the close of business on        , 2021 are entitled to notice of, to vote and have their votes counted at the extraordinary general meeting and any adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting.

This proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card is being provided to Isos’s shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the extraordinary general meeting and at any adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting, all of Isos’s shareholders are urged to read this proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 38 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the board of directors of Isos has unanimously approved the Business Combination and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the Business Combination Agreement, and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, and “FOR” all other proposals presented to Isos’s shareholders in this proxy statement/prospectus. When you consider the recommendation of these proposals by the board of directors of Isos, you should keep in mind that Isos’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section titled “The BCA Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor Related Persons in the Business Combination” in this proxy statement/prospectus for a further discussion of these considerations.

Pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, a public shareholder may request of Isos that New Bowlero redeem all or a portion of its public shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. As a holder of public shares, you will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i)     (a) hold public shares, or (b) if you hold public shares through units, you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares;

(ii)    submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), Isos’s transfer agent, that New Bowlero redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash; and

(iii)   deliver your public shares to Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their public shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on        , 2021 (two business days before the extraordinary general meeting in order for their shares to be redeemed).

Holders of units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and warrants prior to exercising redemption rights in respect of the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. Public shareholders may elect to redeem public shares regardless of if or how they vote with respect to the BCA Proposal. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the public shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank.

If the Business Combination is consummated, and if a public shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, New Bowlero will redeem such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account established at the consummation of our initial public offering (the “trust account”), calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of August 31, 2021, this would have amounted to approximately $10.00 per issued and outstanding public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares. See “Extraordinary General Meeting of Isos Shareholders — Redemption Rights” in this proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

Isos Acquisition Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Isos’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), and LionTree Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LionTree”), have each agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and to waive its redemption rights in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination with respect to any ordinary shares held by it, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2021, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus statement as Annex H (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and LionTree collectively own 20.0% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

The Business Combination Agreement provides that the obligations of Bowlero to consummate the Merger are conditioned on, among other things, that as of the Closing, the amount of cash available in the trust account, minus the aggregate amount of cash proceeds required to satisfy any redemptions of Isos Class A ordinary shares, plus the Forward Purchase Investment (as defined herein), plus amounts received from the PIPE Offerings (as defined herein) is equal to or greater than $520.0 million (the “Minimum Available Cash Amount”) (such condition, the “Minimum Cash Condition”). This condition is for the sole benefit of Bowlero. If such condition is not met, and such condition is not or cannot be waived under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, then the Business Combination Agreement could terminate and the proposed Business Combination may not be consummated. In addition, pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, in no event will Isos redeem public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001.

The Business Combination Agreement is also subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions as described in this proxy statement/prospectus. There can be no assurance that the parties to the Business Combination Agreement would waive any such provision of the Business Combination Agreement.

The approval of each of the Domestication Proposal and Organizational Documents Proposals requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The BCA Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal require the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting in person or virtually, please vote as soon as possible by following the instructions in this proxy statement/prospectus to make sure that your shares are represented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the extraordinary general meeting. The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement will be consummated only if the Condition Precedent Proposals are approved at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted FOR each of the proposals presented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the extraordinary general meeting in person or virtually, the effect will be, among other things, that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the extraordinary general meeting and will not be voted. An abstention or broker non-vote will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. If you are a shareholder of record and you attend the extraordinary general meeting and wish to vote in person or virtually, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

Your attention is directed to the remainder of the proxy statement/prospectus following this notice (including the Annexes and other documents referred to herein) for a more complete description of the proposed Business Combination and related transactions and each of the proposals. You are encouraged to read this proxy statement/prospectus carefully and in its entirety, including the Annexes and other documents referred to herein. If you have any questions or need assistance voting your ordinary shares, please contact Morrow Sodali LLC (the “Proxy Solicitor”), our proxy solicitor, by calling (800) 662-5200 or banks and brokers can call collect at (203) 658-9400, or by emailing ISOS@info.morrowsodali.com.

Thank you for your participation. We look forward to your continued support.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipates,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predicts,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this proxy statement/prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements about our business strategy, financial projections, anticipated growth and market opportunities:

These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

In addition, statements that Isos or Bowlero “believes,” and similar statements reflect only such parties’ beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to such party as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, and while such party believes such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and these statements should not be read to indicate that either Isos or Bowlero has conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements in deciding how to grant your proxy or instruct how your vote should be cast or vote your shares on the proposals set forth in this proxy statement/ prospectus. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, Bowlero’s or New Bowlero’s actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause Isos’s, Bowlero’s or New Bowlero’s actual results to differ include:

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROPOSALS

The following questions and answers briefly address some commonly asked questions about the proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting of Isos’s shareholders. The following questions and answers do not include all the information that is important to shareholders of Isos. We urge Isos’s shareholders to carefully read this entire proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes and other documents referred to herein.

Q:     Why am I receiving this proxy statement/prospectus?

A:     Isos shareholders are being asked to consider and vote upon, among other proposals, a proposal to approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement and approve the Business Combination. The Business Combination Agreement provides for, among other things, the merger of Bowlero with and into Isos, with Isos surviving such merger, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. See the section titled “The BCA Proposal” for more detail.

A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A and you are encouraged to read it carefully and in its entirety.

Isos will change its jurisdiction of incorporation by effecting a deregistration under Section 206 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL, pursuant to which Isos’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. See “The Domestication Proposal” for additional information.

The provisions of the Proposed Organizational Documents will differ materially from the Cayman Constitutional Documents. Please see “What amendments will be made to the current constitutional documents of Isos?” below.

THE VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS IS IMPORTANT. SHAREHOLDERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO VOTE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER CAREFULLY REVIEWING THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING THE ANNEXES AND THE ACCOMPANYING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ISOS AND BOWLERO, CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY.

Q:     What proposals are shareholders of Isos being asked to vote upon?

A:     At the extraordinary general meeting, Isos is asking holders of ordinary shares to consider and vote upon:

•        a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution and adopt the Business Combination Agreement;

•        a proposal to approve by special resolution the Domestication;

•        the following separate proposals to approve by special resolution the Proposed Organizational Documents, including the following material differences between the Cayman Constitutional Documents and the Proposed Organizational Documents:

•        to authorize the change in the authorized capital stock of Isos from 300,000,000 Isos Class A ordinary shares, 20,000,000 Isos Class B ordinary shares and 1,000,000 Isos preference shares, each par value $0.0001 per share, to 2,400,000,000 shares of capital stock of New Bowlero, consisting of 2,000,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock, 200,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock, and 200,000,000 shares of New Bowlero preferred stock;

•        to authorize the board of directors of New Bowlero to issue any or all shares of New Bowlero preferred stock in one or more classes or series, with such terms and conditions as may be expressly determined by the New Bowlero Board and as may be permitted by the DGCL;

•        to authorize adopting Delaware as the exclusive forum of certain stockholder litigation unless Bowlero expressly consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum;

•        to authorize electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL relating to takeovers by interested stockholders and, instead, be governed by a provision substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL;

•        to approve provisions providing that the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors will be required for stockholders to adopt, amend, or repeal certain provisions of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation or the Proposed Bylaws;

•        to approve provisions permitting providing for the removal of directors only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, if the New Bowlero Class B common stock represents less than 50% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders;

•        to approve provisions entitling holders of shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock to cast one vote per share of New Bowlero Class A common stock and holders of shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock to cast 10 votes per share of New Bowlero Class B common stock on each matter properly submitted to New Bowlero’s stockholders entitled to vote, as opposed to each Isos Class A ordinary share and Isos Class B ordinary share being entitled to one vote per share on each matter properly submitted to Isos’s shareholders entitled to vote; and

•        to provide for certain additional changes, including, among other things, (i) changing the corporate name from “Isos Acquisition Corporation” to “Bowlero Corp.”, (ii) making Bowlero’s corporate existence perpetual, and (iii) removing certain provisions related to Isos’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon consummation of the Transactions, all of which Isos’s board of directors believes is necessary to adequately address the needs of New Bowlero after the Business Combination;

•        a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution the election of nine directors, who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of New Bowlero;

•        a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution, for purposes of complying with applicable listing rules of the NYSE, the issuance of (a) New Bowlero Class A common stock and/or New Bowlero preferred stock to the PIPE Investors, (b) shares of New Bowlero common stock and New Bowlero preferred stock to the Bowlero Stockholders pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (c) New Bowlero Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the New Bowlero preferred stock to be issued pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement or to be issued and sold in the Preferred PIPE Offering, and (d) shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock to the Forward Purchase Investors;

•        a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution the Bowlero Corp. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan;

•        a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution the Employee Stock Purchase Plan; and

•        a proposal to approve the adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the extraordinary general meeting.

If Isos’s shareholders do not approve each of the Condition Precedent Proposals, then unless certain conditions in the Business Combination Agreement are waived by the applicable parties to the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement could terminate and the Business Combination may not be consummated. See “The BCA Proposal,” “The Domestication Proposal,” “The Organizational Documents Proposals,” “The Director Election Proposal,” “The Stock Issuance Proposal,” “The Incentive Plan Proposal,” “The ESPP Proposal” and “The Adjournment Proposal.”

Isos will hold the extraordinary general meeting to consider and vote upon these proposals. This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about the Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the extraordinary general meeting. Shareholders of Isos should read it carefully.

After careful consideration, Isos’s board of directors has determined that the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, each of the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of those proposals.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of Isos’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, Isos’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section titled “The BCA Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor Related Persons in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

Q:     Are the proposals conditioned on one another?

A:     Yes. The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal.

Q:     Why is Isos proposing the Business Combination?

A:     Isos was organized to effect a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination, with one or more businesses or entities.

Bowlero Corp. is the world’s largest operator of bowling entertainment centers. Bowlero operates traditional bowling centers and more upscale entertainment concepts with lounge seating, arcades, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and more robust customer service for individuals and group events, as well as hosting and overseeing professional and non-professional bowling tournaments and related broadcasting.

Based on its due diligence investigations of Bowlero and the industry in which it operates, including the financial and other information provided by Bowlero in the course of Isos’s due diligence investigations, Isos’s board of directors believes that the Business Combination is in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders and presents an opportunity to increase shareholder value. However, there is no assurance of this. See “The BCA Proposal — The Isos Board’s Reasons for the Business Combination” for additional information.

Although Isos’s board of directors believes that the Business Combination presents a unique business combination opportunity and is in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders, the board of directors did consider certain potentially material negative factors in arriving at that conclusion. These factors are discussed in greater detail in the section titled “The BCA Proposal — The Isos Board’s Reasons for the Business Combination,” as well as in the section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Bowlero’s Business and Industry.”

Q:     What will Bowlero Stockholders receive in return for Isos’s acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Bowlero?

A:     At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of Bowlero Common Stock, (other than shares owned by Bowlero as treasury stock, dissenting shares and any shares of Bowlero Common Stock held by Isos) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive (i) the contingent right to receive a number of Earnout Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) which had an aggregate estimated fair value of $162,670,000 as of June 28, 2021, based on an independent valuation conducted by Duff & Phelps, (ii) an amount in cash or New Bowlero common stock (calculated based on a price of $10.00 per share), at such Bowlero stockholder’s election, equal to its pro rata portion (on a fully-diluted basis) of $1,601,053,751.89, (iii) the Per Share Forfeited Share Consideration (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) which will have an aggregate value of $8,056,390, assuming no redemptions, and an aggregate value of $21,483,700, assuming maximum redemptions, and (iv) the Per Share Preferred Stock Cash Consideration (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), which had an aggregate value of $141,162,000 as of June 27, 2021. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain shares of Bowlero Common Stock held by Atairos will be converted, in the aggregate, into the right to receive a number of shares of New Bowlero preferred stock having an aggregate liquidation preference equal to $105.0 million.

During the period from and after the Closing until the fifth anniversary of the Closing, Bowlero Stockholders and holders of Participating Company Options (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) will be entitled to receive the Earnout Shares, which will be issued as follows: (a) 10,375,000 Earnout Shares, if the closing share price of New Bowlero Class A common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any 10 trading days within any consecutive 20-trading day period that occurs after the Closing date and (b) 10,375,000 Earnout Shares, if the closing share price of New Bowlero Class A common stock equals

or exceeds $17.50 per share for any 10 trading days within any consecutive 20-trading day period. If New Bowlero experiences an Acceleration Event (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) during such period, then any Earnout Shares that have not been previously issued by New Bowlero (whether or not previously earned) to the Bowlero Stockholders or have not been earned by the holders of Participating Company Options will be deemed earned and issued as of immediately prior to the Acceleration Event, unless, in the case of an Acceleration Event that is a Change of Control (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), the value of the consideration to be received by the holders of Applicable New Bowlero common Stock (as defined below) in such Change of Control transaction is less than the applicable stock price thresholds described above. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by New Bowlero or determined by the board of directors of New Bowlero, if any employee entitled to Earnout Shares other than Mr. Shannon or Mr. Parker is not employed on the date the forgoing milestones are achieved, then the employee’s Earnout Shares will be forfeited and reallocated to (i) TS and Mr. Shannon, collectively, (ii) Atairos and (iii) Mr. Parker in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement. If the consideration received in such Acceleration Event is not solely cash, the New Bowlero Board will determine the treatment of the Earnout Shares.

Q:     What equity stake will current Isos shareholders and others hold in New Bowlero immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination?

A:     As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 31,854,625 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, which includes the 6,370,925 founder shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree, collectively, and the 25,483,700 public shares. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is outstanding an aggregate of 13,892,394 warrants, which includes the 5,397,828 private placement warrants held by the Sponsor and LionTree, collectively, and the 8,494,566 public warrants. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Isos Class A ordinary share and, following the Domestication and the Business Combination, will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of New Bowlero Class A common stock. Therefore, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus (without giving effect to the Business Combination), the Isos fully diluted share capital would be 45,747,019.

The following table sets forth the anticipated ownership of New Bowlero immediately following consummation of the Business Combination assuming a share price of $10.00 per share, as well as a share price of $17.50 per share, in each case assuming no redemptions, intermediate redemptions (of 3,991,900 Public Shares), and maximum redemptions (of 7,983,800 Public Shares). Based on a share price of $10.00, the first scenario assumes no issuance of any Earnout Shares (and assumes that all earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree are forfeited), and assumes no conversion of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering or issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination into New Bowlero common stock, and, based on a share price of $17.50, the second scenario assumes the issuance of all Earnout Shares (and assumes that all earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree vest and accordingly are not forfeited), and assumes conversion of all of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering and issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination at a conversion price of $13.00 per share.

____________

(1)      Excludes New Bowlero common stock being purchased by LionTree, George Barrios and Michelle Wilson in the Common PIPE Offering (which such ownership is reflected in the line reading “Common PIPE Investors”).

____________

Both scenarios assume (i) no exercise of the warrants or Bowlero options being converted into New Bowlero options, (ii) Mr. Shannon receives 1,422,813 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock as the stock portion of the transaction bonus, and (iii) that an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock are issued to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Common PIPE Offering and the Forward Purchase Investors pursuant to the Forward Purchase Investment. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by Isos’s existing shareholders in New Bowlero will be different.

For further details, see “The BCA Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement — Consideration — Aggregate Merger Consideration.”

Q:     What voting power will current Isos shareholders and others hold in New Bowlero immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination?

A:     As a result of the Business Combination, all of Bowlero Stockholders, other than Tom Shannon, Bowlero’s CEO, will receive New Bowlero Class A common stock. Mr. Shannon will receive New Bowlero Class B common stock in the Business Combination. New Bowlero Class B common stock will rank pari passu with New Bowlero Class A common stock in all respects, except that it will be entitled to super voting rights of ten (10) votes per share as described herein. See “Description of Securities After the Business Combination — Common Stock.”

The following table sets forth the anticipated voting power of New Bowlero immediately following consummation of the Business Combination assuming a share price of $10.00 per share, as well as a share price of $17.50 per share, in each case assuming no redemptions, intermediate redemptions (of 3,991,900 Public Shares), and maximum redemptions (of 7,983,800 Public Shares). Based on a share price of $10.00, the first scenario assumes no issuance of any Earnout Shares (and assumes that all earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree are forfeited), and assumes no conversion of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering or issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination into New Bowlero common stock, and, based on a share price of $17.50, the second scenario assumes the issuance of all Earnout Shares (and assumes that all earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree vest and accordingly are not forfeited), and assumes conversion of all of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering and issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination at a conversion price of $13.00 per share.

____________

(1)      Excludes New Bowlero common stock being purchased by LionTree, George Barrios and Michelle Wilson in the Common PIPE Offering (which such ownership is reflected in the line reading “Common PIPE Investors”.

Both scenarios assume (i) no exercise of the warrants or Bowlero options being converted into New Bowlero options, (ii) Mr. Shannon receives 1,422,813 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock as the stock portion of the transaction bonus, and (iii) that an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock are issued to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Common PIPE Offering and the Forward Purchase Investors pursuant to the Forward Purchase Investment. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by Isos’s existing shareholders in New Bowlero will be different.

Q:     What is the maximum number of shares that may be redeemed in order for Isos to satisfy the Minimum Cash Condition?

A:     The maximum number of Isos Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed in order for Isos to satisfy the Minimum Cash Condition is 7,983,800 Isos Class A ordinary shares. The Minimum Cash Condition is waivable by Bowlero, and if so waived, the maximum amount of redemptions could exceed the 7,983,800 Isos Class A ordinary shares redemption scenario as presented in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Q:     Will the Company obtain new financing in connection with the Business Combination?

A:     Yes. The Common PIPE Investors have agreed to purchase, in the aggregate, 15 million shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock, for $150.0 million of gross proceeds, and the Preferred PIPE Investors have agreed to purchase 95,000 shares of New Bowlero preferred stock, for $95.0 million of gross proceeds, with the Sponsor Related Persons accounting for an aggregate of $5.0 million of the Common PIPE proceeds (collectively, the amounts received from the Common PIPE Investors and the Preferred PIPE Investors, the “PIPE Offerings”). In addition, the Forward Purchase Contract was amended and restated on July 1, 2021 to increase the number of Isos units the subscribers are required to purchase upon closing of Isos’s initial business combination to 10 million units, in the aggregate, for a gross purchase price of $100.0 million (the “Forward Purchase Investment”). The PIPE Offerings and the Forward Purchase Investment are contingent upon, among other things, the closing of the Business Combination. See “The BCA Proposal — Related Agreements.”

Q:     Why is Isos proposing the Domestication?

A:     Our board of directors believes that there are significant advantages to us that will arise as a result of a change of Isos’s domicile to Delaware. Further, Isos’s board of directors believes that any direct benefit that the DGCL provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits its stockholders, who are the owners of the corporation. Isos’s board of directors believes that there are several reasons why a reincorporation in Delaware is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, including, (i) the prominence, predictability and flexibility of the DGCL, (ii) Delaware’s well-established principles of corporate governance and (iii) the increased ability for Delaware corporations to attract and retain qualified directors. Each of the foregoing are discussed in greater detail in the section titled “The Domestication Proposal — Reasons for the Domestication.”

To effect the Domestication, Isos will file a notice of deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and file a certificate of incorporation and a certificate of corporate domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which Isos will be domesticated and continue as a Delaware corporation.

The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:     How will the Domestication affect my ordinary shares, warrants and units?

A:     As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (i) each outstanding Isos Class A ordinary share will be converted into one share of New Bowlero Class A common stock, (ii) each outstanding Isos Class B ordinary share will be converted into one share of New Bowlero Class A common stock, (iii) each warrant will automatically be modified to entitle the holder to acquire one share of New Bowlero Class A common stock (rather than one share of Isos Class A ordinary share), at $11.50 per share, (iv) each outstanding Isos unit that has not been previously separated will be cancelled and entitle the holder to one share of New Bowlero Class A common stock and one-third of a warrant to acquire New Bowlero Class A common stock, and (v) the governing documents of New Bowlero will be the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws. See “The Domestication Proposal” for additional information. Your rights as a stockholder

of New Bowlero will also be impacted by the Stockholders Agreement among New Bowlero, Atairos and TS. See “Risk Factors — Additional Risks Related to Ownership of New Bowlero Common Stock Following the Business Combination and New Bowlero Operating as a Public Company — Following the completion of the Business Combination, Bowlero’s founder and Chief Executive Officer and Atairos will have certain board nomination rights that will enable them to exercise substantial control over all corporate actions, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to stockholders for a vote” for further information.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication?

A:     As discussed more fully under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” the Domestication should constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(l)(F) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Assuming that the Domestication so qualifies and subject to the discussion in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — PFIC Considerations”, U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) will be subject to Section 367(b) of the Code and, as a result:

•        A U.S. Holder whose Isos Class A ordinary shares have a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the Domestication will not recognize any gain or loss and will not be required to include any part of Isos’s earnings in income;

•        A U.S. Holder who, on the date of the Domestication, owns (actually or constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Isos stock entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of Isos stock (a “U.S. Shareholder”) will generally be required to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to its Isos Class A ordinary shares; and\

•        A U.S. Holder whose Isos Class A ordinary shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more and who is not a U.S. Shareholder will generally recognize gain (but not loss) on the exchange of Isos Class A ordinary shares for New Bowlero Class A common stock pursuant to the Domestication. As an alternative to recognizing gain, such U.S. Holder may file an election to include in income as a deemed dividend the all earnings and profits amount attributable to its Isos Class A ordinary shares provided certain other requirements are satisfied.

Isos does not expect to have significant cumulative earnings and profits, if any, on the date of the Domestication.

As discussed more fully under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — PFIC Considerations,” if Isos were to be treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain U.S. Holders may be subject to adverse tax consequences as a result of the Domestication. However, provided that the Domestication is completed in Isos’s current taxable year, although subject to uncertainty, Isos believes that it will not be classified as a PFIC.

Each U.S. Holder of Isos Class A ordinary shares or warrants is urged to consult with its own tax advisor concerning the application of the PFIC rules to the exchange of Isos Class A ordinary shares and warrants for New Bowlero common stock and warrants pursuant to the Domestication.

Additionally, the Domestication may cause non-U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Non-U.S. Holders”) to become subject to U.S. federal income withholding taxes on any amounts treated as dividends paid in respect of such non-U.S. Holder’s New Bowlero’s common stock after the Domestication.

The tax consequences of the Domestication are complex and will depend on a holder’s particular circumstances. All holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them of the Domestication, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax laws. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Domestication, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Q:     Did the Isos Board obtain a fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Business Combination?

A:     The Isos Board did not obtain a fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination. The Isos Board believes that based upon the financial skills and background of its directors, it was qualified to conclude that the Business Combination was fair from a financial perspective to its shareholders. The Isos Board also determined, without the benefit of a fairness opinion, that Bowlero’s fair market value was at least 80% of Isos’s net assets, excluding any taxes payable on interest earned on the funds held in the trust account. Accordingly, investors will be relying on the judgment of the Isos Board as described above in valuing Bowlero’s business and assuming the risk that the Isos Board may not have properly valued such business.

Q:     Do I have redemption rights?

A:     If you are a holder of public shares, you have the right to request that we redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash provided that you follow the procedures and deadlines described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of the public shares held by them regardless of if or how they vote in respect of the BCA Proposal. If you wish to exercise your redemption rights, please see the answer to the question below titled “How do I exercise my redemption rights?”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

Q:     How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A:      In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must, prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on            , 2021 (two (2) business days before the extraordinary general meeting), tender your shares physically or electronically and submit a request in writing that we redeem your public shares for cash to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, at the following address:

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
One State Street Plaza, 30th Floor
New York, New York 10004
Attn: Mark Zimkind
E-mail: mzimkind@continentalstock.com

Please also affirmatively certify in your request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company for redemption if you “ARE” or “ARE NOT” acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) with any other shareholder with respect to shares of Isos Class A ordinary shares. A holder of the public shares, together with any of its affiliates any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to an aggregate of 15% or more of the public shares, which we refer to as the “15% threshold.” Accordingly, all public shares in excess of the 15% threshold beneficially owned by a public shareholder or group will not be redeemed for cash. Shareholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is Isos’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, Isos does not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Shareholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with Isos’s consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination. If you delivered your shares for redemption to Isos’s transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your redemption rights, you may request that Isos’s transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting Isos’s transfer agent at the phone number or address listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Q:     If I am a holder of units, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my units?

A:      No. Holders of issued and outstanding units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If you hold your units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must notify your broker or bank that you elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants, or if you hold units registered in your own name, you must contact Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. You are requested to cause your public shares to be separated and delivered to Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, by            , Eastern Time, on            , 2021 (two business days before the extraordinary general meeting) in order to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your public shares.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

A:     It is expected that a U.S. Holder (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the trust account in exchange for its New Bowlero common stock will generally be treated as selling such New Bowlero common stock resulting in the recognition of capital gain or capital loss. There may be certain circumstances, however, in which the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of New Bowlero common stock that such U.S. Holder owns or is deemed to own (including constructively and through the ownership of warrants) before and after the redemption. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Additionally, because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption by any shareholder, U.S. Holders exercising redemption rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of Section 367 of the Code as well as potential tax consequences of the U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs. The tax consequences of Section 367 of the Code and the PFIC rules are discussed more fully below under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

All holders considering exercising redemption rights are urged to consult with their tax advisors on the tax consequences to them of an exercise of redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax laws.

Q:     What happens to the funds deposited in the trust account after consummation of the Business Combination?

A:     Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the funds deposited in the trust account will be released to pay holders of Isos public shares who properly exercise their redemption rights; to pay transaction fees and expenses associated with the Business Combination; and for working capital and general corporate purposes of New Bowlero following the Business Combination. See “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Sources and Uses of Funds for the Business Combination.”

Q:     What happens if a substantial number of the public shareholders vote in favor of the BCA Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?

A:     Our public shareholders are not required to vote in respect of the Business Combination in order to exercise their redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the trust account and the number of public shareholders are reduced as a result of redemptions by public shareholders.

The Business Combination Agreement provides that the obligations of Bowlero to consummate the Merger are conditioned on, among other things, that as of the Closing, Isos having $520.0 million available (after giving effect to any exercise of redemption rights and consummation of the PIPE Offerings). If such condition is not met, and such conditions are not or cannot be waived under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, then the Business Combination Agreement could terminate and the proposed Business Combination may not be consummated. In addition, in no event will we redeem public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a5 1-1 (g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001.

Q:     What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?

A:     The Business Combination Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, (i) the expiration or termination of all applicable waiting periods and extensions thereof in respect of Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (ii) the approval of Isos’s shareholders of the Condition Precedent Proposals, (iii) the approval and adoption of the Merger, the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions by the Bowlero stockholders and (iv) the completion of any redemptions pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents.

The Business Combination Agreement provides that the obligations of Bowlero to consummate the Business Combination are conditioned on, among other things, that (i) no effect shall have occurred between the date of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing Date that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, an Acquiror Material Adverse Effect and (ii) Isos have $520.0 million available (after giving effect to any exercise of redemption rights and consummation of the PIPE Offerings).

The Business Combination Agreement provides that the obligations of Isos to consummate the Business Combination are conditioned on, among other things, that no effect shall have occurred between the date of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing Date that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material

Adverse Effect. For more information about conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, see “The BCA Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement.”

Q:     When do you expect the Business Combination to be completed?

A:     It is currently expected that the Business Combination will be consummated in the second half of 2021. This date depends, among other things, on the approval of the proposals to be put to Isos shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting. However, such meeting could be adjourned if the Adjournment Proposal is adopted by Isos’s shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting and Isos elects to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the extraordinary general meeting. For a description of the conditions for the completion of the Business Combination, see “The BCA Proposal — The Business Combination Agreement.”

Q:     What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?

A:     Isos will not complete the Domestication to Delaware unless all other conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination have been satisfied or waived by the parties in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. If Isos is not able to complete the Business Combination with Bowlero by March 5, 2023 and is not able to complete another business combination by such date, in each case, as such date may be extended pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, Isos will: (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

Q:     Do I have appraisal rights in connection with the proposed Business Combination and the proposed Domestication?

A:     Neither Isos’s shareholders nor Isos’s warrant holders have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination or the Domestication under the Cayman Islands Companies Act or under the DGCL.

Q:     Why is Isos proposing the Incentive Plan Proposal?

A:     Isos is proposing the Incentive Plan Proposal to promote ownership in New Bowlero by employees, non-employee directors and consultants of New Bowlero and its subsidiaries and to align incentives between these service providers and shareholders of New Bowlero by permitting these service providers to receive compensation in the form of awards denominated in, or based on the value of, New Bowlero common stock. The Incentive Plan Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the BCA Proposal. If the BCA Proposal is not approved, the Incentive Plan Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our stockholders.

Q:     Why is Isos proposing the ESPP Proposal?

A:     Isos is proposing the ESPP Proposal, which permits eligible employees of New Bowlero and its subsidiaries the opportunity to purchase New Bowlero common stock, to promote employee retention and incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the company and its affiliates. The ESPP Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the BCA Proposal. If the BCA Proposal is not approved, the ESPP Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our stockholders.

Q:     What do I need to do now?

A:     Isos urges you to read this proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety and to consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a shareholder or warrant holder. Isos’s shareholders should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card.

Q:     How do I vote?

A:     If you are a holder of record of ordinary shares on the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, you may vote in person at the extraordinary general meeting or by submitting a proxy for the extraordinary general meeting. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying pre-addressed postage-paid envelope. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the broker, bank or nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the extraordinary general meeting and vote in person, obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

Q:     If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

A:     No. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial holder” of the shares held for you in what is known as “street name.” If this is the case, this proxy statement/prospectus may have been forwarded to you by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, or its agent, and you may need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds your shares and follow the instructions included on that form regarding how to instruct your broker, bank or nominee as to how to vote your shares. Under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or nominee. We believe all the proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary and therefore your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction. Your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares only if you provide instructions on how to vote. As the beneficial holder, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares, and you should instruct your broker to vote your shares in accordance with directions you provide. If you do not provide voting instructions to your broker on a particular proposal on which your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote, your shares will not be voted on that proposal. This is called a “broker non-vote.” Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting, and otherwise will have no effect on a particular proposal.

Q:     When and where will the extraordinary general meeting be held?

A:     The extraordinary general meeting will be held at the offices of Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP, at One Battery Park Plaza, New York, NY 10004, or virtually via live webcast at           , or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the proposals.

Q:     Who is entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting?

A:     The Isos Board has fixed            , 2021 as the record date for the extraordinary general meeting. If you were a shareholder of Isos at the close of business on the record date, you are entitled to vote on matters that come before the extraordinary general meeting. However, a shareholder may only vote his or her shares if he or she is present in person or is represented by proxy at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:     How many votes do I have?

A:     Isos shareholders are entitled to one vote at the extraordinary general meeting for each ordinary share held of record as of the record date. As of the close of business on the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, there were 31,854,625 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which 25,483,700 were issued and outstanding public shares.

Q:     What constitutes a quorum?

A:     A quorum of Isos shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the extraordinary general meeting if the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting are represented in person or by proxy. As of the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, 15,927,313 ordinary shares would be required to achieve a quorum.

Q:     What vote is required to approve each proposal at the extraordinary general meeting?

A:     The following votes are required for each proposal at the extraordinary general meeting:

•        BCA Proposal:    The approval of the BCA Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Domestication Proposal:    The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Organizational Documents Proposals:    The separate approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Director Election Proposal:    The approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Stock Issuance Proposal:    The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Incentive Plan Proposal:    The approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        ESPP Proposal:    The approval of the ESPP Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

•        Adjournment Proposal:    The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:     What are the recommendations of Isos Board?

A:     The Isos Board believes that the BCA Proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting are in the best interest of Isos’s shareholders and unanimously recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the BCA Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the extraordinary general meeting.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of Isos’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, Isos’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section titled “The BCA Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor Related Entities in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

Q:     How do the Sponsor and LionTree intend to vote their shares?

A:     Unlike some other blank check companies in which the initial shareholders agree to vote their shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the public shareholders in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor and LionTree have agreed to vote all the founder shares and any other public shares they may hold in favor of all the proposals being presented at the extraordinary general meeting. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and LionTree collectively own 20.0% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

At any time at or prior to the Business Combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), the Sponsor, LionTree, Bowlero stockholders or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may (i) purchase public shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against any of the Condition Precedent Proposals, or elect to redeem, or indicate an intention to redeem, public shares, (ii) execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or (iii) enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the Condition Precedent Proposals or not redeem their public shares. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of Isos shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, LionTree, Bowlero stockholders or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors, or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of (1) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the BCA Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, (2) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the Domestication Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposals, (3) satisfaction of the Minimum Cash Condition, (4) otherwise limiting the number of public shares electing to redeem and (5) our net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51(g) (1) of the Exchange Act) being at least $5,000,001.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on our ordinary shares (e.g., by giving an investor or holder the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market, such investor or holder may therefore become more likely to sell the shares he or she owns, either at or prior to the Business Combination). If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be consummated in circumstances where such consummation could not otherwise occur. Purchases of shares by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting and would likely increase the chances that such proposals would be approved. Isos will file or submit a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose any material arrangements entered into or significant purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting or the redemption threshold. Any such report will include descriptions of any arrangements entered into or significant purchases by any of the aforementioned persons.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of Isos’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of Isos and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, Isos’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section titled “The BCA Proposal — Interests of the Sponsor Related Persons in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

Q:     What happens if I sell my Isos ordinary shares before the extraordinary general meeting?

A:     The record date for the extraordinary general meeting is earlier than the date of the extraordinary general meeting and earlier than the date that the Business Combination is expected to be completed. If you transfer your public shares after the applicable record date, but before the extraordinary general meeting, unless you grant a proxy to the transferee, you will retain your right to vote at such general meeting but the transferee, and not you, will have the ability to redeem such shares (if time permits).

Q:     May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card?

A:     Yes. Shareholders may send a later-dated, signed proxy card to           at Isos’s address set forth below so that it is received by        prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting (which is scheduled to take place on            , 2021) or attend the extraordinary general meeting in person and vote. Shareholders also may revoke their proxy by sending a notice of revocation to            , which must be received by            prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting. However, if your shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or another nominee, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote.

Q:     What happens if I fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting?

A:     If you fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting and the Business Combination is approved by shareholders and the Business Combination is consummated, you will become a shareholder or warrant holder of New Bowlero. If you fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting and the Business Combination is not approved, you will remain a shareholder or warrant holder of Isos. However, if you fail to vote with respect to the extraordinary general meeting, you will nonetheless be able to elect to redeem your public shares in connection with the Business Combination (if time permits).

Q:     What should I do with my share certificates, warrant certificates or unit certificates?

A:     Our shareholders who exercise their redemption rights must deliver (either physically or electronically) their share certificates to Continental, Isos’s transfer agent, prior to the extraordinary general meeting.

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their public shares in the manner described above prior to            , Eastern Time, on            , 2021 (two business days before the extraordinary general meeting) in order for their shares to be redeemed.

Our warrant holders should not submit the certificates relating to their warrants. Public shareholders who do not elect to have their public shares redeemed for the pro rata share of the trust account should not submit the certificates relating to their public shares.

RISK FACTORS

Shareholders should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this proxy statement/prospectus, before they decide whether to vote or instruct their vote to be cast to approve the proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references to “New Bowlero” refer to Isos Acquisition Coporation after giving effect to the Domestication and the Business Combination.

Risks Related to Bowlero’s Business and Industry

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted and is expected to continue to disrupt our business, which has had a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition and could continue for an extended period of time. Future outbreaks of contagious diseases or other adverse public health developments in the United States or worldwide could have similar impacts on our business.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has had a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition and the same could continue for an extended period of time. Beginning in 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the economy in general, as well as our business directly, and continues to negatively affect our business. These effects include, but are not limited to:

•        the unprecedented impact on our business and operations;

•        our ability to access funding sources in the future;

•        the government-mandated and voluntary shutdowns, and operating restrictions on our business;

•        the level of customer demand following re-opening;

•        the ability to maintain a functioning workforce;

•        the ability to maintain adequate supplies and resources;

•        the economic impact of COVID-19 and related disruptions on the communities we serve; and

•        management’s ability to estimate future performance of our business and impact on our business.

Prior to the closure of our centers due to COVID-19, the Company consistently grew revenues; however, the closure of our centers due to COVID-19 prohibited the Company from generating sales and cash flows. Consequently, the Company incurred significant losses and consumed cash, and in order to increase liquidity, the Company incurred additional debt. Net losses in fiscal years 2021 and 2020 were $126 million and $91 million, respectively, which were driven by the closure of our centers. Net proceeds from financing activities from long-term debt and revolver directly utilized to support our liquidity were $35 million and $137 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The extent to which the current or future outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments. Such developments may include the geographic spread and duration of the virus, the severity of the disease and the mitigating and remedial actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the outbreak. In addition, how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can be maintained or resumed cannot be predicted, and the resumption of normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of any pandemic on us or our suppliers, third-party service providers, and/or guests.

If we are unable to successfully design and execute our business strategy plan, including growing comparable center sales, our revenues and profitability may be adversely affected.

Our ability to increase revenues and profitability is dependent on executing effective business strategies. If we are delayed or unsuccessful in executing our strategies or if our strategies do not yield desired results, our business, financial condition and results of operations may suffer. Our ability to meet our business strategy plan is dependent upon, among other things, our ability to:

•        increase gross sales and operating profits at existing centers with bowling, food, beverage, game and entertainment options desired by our guests;

•        evolve our marketing and branding strategies to continue to appeal to our guests;

•        innovate and implement new initiatives to provide a unique guest experience;

•        identify adequate sources of capital to fund and finance strategic initiatives;

•        grow and expand operations;

•        identify new opportunities to improve customer reach;

•        maintain a talented workforce responsive to customer needs and operational demands; and

•        identify, implement and maintain cost-reducing strategies to scale operations.

Changes in consumer preferences and buying patterns could negatively affect our results of operations.

Visiting our centers is a discretionary purchase for consumers; therefore, our business is susceptible to economic slowdowns and recessions. We are dependent in particular upon discretionary spending by consumers living in the communities in which our centers are located. A significant weakening in the local economies of these geographic areas, or any of the areas in which our centers are located, may cause consumers to curtail discretionary spending, which in turn could reduce our centers’ sales and have an adverse effect on our business and our results of operations. Our centers are sometimes located near high density retail areas such as regional malls, lifestyle centers, big box shopping centers and entertainment centers. We depend on a high volume of visitors at these locations to attract guests to our centers. As demographic and economic patterns change, current centers may or may not continue to be attractive or profitable.

E-commerce or online shopping continues to increase and negatively impact consumer traffic at traditional “brick and mortar” retail sites located in regional malls, lifestyle centers, big box shopping centers and entertainment centers. Vacancies have also increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A decline in development or closures of businesses in these settings or a decline in visitors to retail areas near our centers could negatively affect our sales.

Consumers continually change their dietary preferences. As a result, we are challenged to evolve our food and beverage menu offerings to appeal to these changing customer preferences, while maintaining our brand character and retaining popular menu items. New information or changes in dietary, nutritional, allergen or health guidelines or environmental or sustainability concerns, whether issued by governmental agencies, academic studies, advocacy organizations or similar groups, may cause some groups of consumers to select foods other than those that are offered by our centers. Additionally, it is unclear currently if the COVID-19 pandemic may have a lasting impact on consumer demand. If we fail to anticipate changing trends or other consumer preferences, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.

Advances in technologies or certain changes in consumer behavior driven by such technologies could have a negative effect on our business. Technology and consumer offerings continue to develop, and we expect new or enhanced technologies and consumer offerings will be available in the future. As part of our marketing efforts, we use a variety of digital platforms including search engines, mobile, online videos and social media platforms such as Facebook®, Twitter® and Instagram® to attract and retain guests. We also test new technology platforms to improve our level of digital engagement with our guests and employees to help strengthen our marketing and related consumer analytics capabilities. These initiatives may not prove to be successful and may result in expenses incurred without the benefit of higher revenues or increased engagement.

We may not be able to compete favorably in the highly competitive out-of-home and home-based entertainment markets, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The out-of-home entertainment market is highly competitive. We compete for customers’ discretionary entertainment dollars with providers of out-of-home entertainment, including localized attraction facilities such as other bowling centers, movie theatres, sporting events, sports activity centers, arcades and entertainment centers, nightclubs, and restaurants as well as theme parks. Some of the entities operating these businesses are larger and have significantly greater financial resources, a greater number of locations, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and are better established in the markets where our centers are located or are planned to be located. As a result, they may be able to invest greater resources than we can in attracting customers and succeed in attracting customers who would otherwise come to our centers. We also face competition from local, regional, and national establishments that offer similar entertainment experiences to ours that are highly competitive with respect to price, quality of service, location, ambience and type and quality of food. In addition, we also face competition from increasingly sophisticated home-based forms of entertainment, such as internet and video gaming and home movie streaming and delivery. Our failure to compete favorably in the competitive out-of-home and home-based entertainment markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Unfavorable publicity or a failure to respond effectively to adverse publicity, could harm our business.

Our brand and our reputation are among our most important assets. Our ability to attract and retain customers depends, in part, upon the external perception of Bowlero, the quality of our facilities and our integrity. Multi-location businesses, such as ours, can be adversely affected by unfavorable publicity resulting from food safety concerns, flu or other virus outbreaks and other public health concerns stemming from one or a limited number of our centers. Additionally, we rely on our network of suppliers to properly handle, store, and transport our ingredients for delivery to our centers. Failure by our suppliers, or their suppliers, could cause our ingredients to be contaminated, which could be difficult to detect and put the safety of our food in jeopardy.

Negative publicity may also result from crime incidents, data privacy breaches, scandals involving our employees or operational problems at our centers. Regardless of whether the allegations or complaints are valid, unfavorable publicity related to one or more of our centers could affect public perception of the entire brand. Even incidents at similar businesses could result in negative publicity that could indirectly harm our brand. If one or more of our centers were the subject of unfavorable publicity and we are unable to quickly and effectively respond to such reports, our overall brand could be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

There has been a significant increase in the use of social media and similar platforms, including weblogs (blogs), social media websites and other forms of Internet-based communications that allow individuals access to a broad audience of consumers and other interested persons. Consumers value readily available information concerning goods and services that they have or plan to purchase and may act on such information without further investigation or authentication. Many social media platforms immediately publish the content their subscribers and participants post, often without filters or checks on accuracy of the content posted. The opportunity exists for dissemination of information, including inaccurate information, to spread quickly. Inaccurate or adverse information concerning Bowlero may be posted on such platforms at any time. The harm may be immediate without affording us an opportunity for redress or correction. Such platforms also may be used for dissemination of trade secret information, compromising valuable company assets. In summary, the dissemination of information via social media and similar platforms may harm our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations, regardless of the information’s accuracy. The inappropriate use of social media vehicles by our guests or employees could increase our costs, lead to litigation or result in negative publicity that could damage our reputation.

Further, if we are not effective in addressing social and environmental responsibility matters or achieving relevant sustainability goals, consumer trust in our brand may suffer. Consumer demand for our products and our brand value could diminish significantly if any such incidents or other matters erode consumer confidence in us or our products, which could likely result in lower revenues.

We are subject to risks associated with leasing space subject to long-term, non-cancelable leases.

Payments under our non-cancelable, long-term operating leases account for a significant portion of our operating expenses and we expect many of the new centers we open in the future will also be leased. We often cannot cancel these leases without substantial economic penalty. If an existing or future center is not profitable, and we decide to close it, we may nonetheless be committed to perform our obligations under the applicable lease, including, among other things, paying the rent for the remainder of the lease term. We depend on cash flow from operations to pay our lease obligations. If our business does not generate adequate cash flow from operating activities and sufficient funds are not otherwise available to us from borrowings under our existing credit facility, we may not be able to service our operating lease obligations, grow our business, respond to competitive challenges or fund other liquidity and capital needs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

In addition, as each of our leases expires, we may choose not to renew, or may not be able to renew, such existing leases if the renewal rent is too high and/or the capital investment required to maintain the centers at the leased locations is not justified by the return required on the investment. If we are not able to renew the leases at rents that allow such centers to remain profitable as their terms expire, the number of such centers may decrease, resulting in lower revenue from operations, or we may relocate a center, which could subject us to construction and other costs and risks, and in either case, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our financial performance and the ability to implement successfully our strategic direction could be adversely affected if we fail to retain, or effectively respond, to a loss of key management.

Our future success is substantially supported by the contributions and abilities of senior management, including key executives and other leadership personnel. Changes in senior management could expose us to significant changes in strategic direction and initiatives. A failure to maintain appropriate organizational capacity and capability to support leadership excellence or a loss of key skill sets could jeopardize our ability to meet our business performance expectations and growth targets. Although we have employment agreements with many members of senior management, we cannot prevent members of senior management from terminating their employment with us. Losing the services of members of senior management could materially harm our business until a suitable replacement is found, and such replacement may not have equal experience and capabilities.

We face risks related to our substantial indebtedness and limitations on future sources of liquidity.

Our substantial indebtedness of $885 million as of June 27, 2021 could have important consequences to us, and our forecasted current debt service of $58 million in minimum debt payments and estimated interest payments in fiscal year 2022, including:

•        making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our debt, and any failure to comply with the obligations under our debt instruments, including restrictive covenants, could result in an event of default under the agreements governing our indebtedness increasing our vulnerability to general economic and industry conditions, including as a result of disruption caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic;

•        requiring a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of obligations with respect to our debt, thereby reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund our operations, lease payments, capital expenditures, selling and marketing efforts, product development, future business opportunities and other purposes;

•        exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as some of our borrowings are at variable rates;

•        limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, product development, debt service requirements, strategic acquisitions, and general corporate or other purposes; and

•        limiting our ability to plan for, or adjust to, changing market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who may be less highly leveraged.

Covenants in our debt agreements restrict our business and could limit our ability to implement our business plan.

Our credit facility contains covenants that may restrict our ability to implement our business plan, finance future operations, respond to changing business and economic conditions, secure additional financing, and engage in opportunistic transactions, such as strategic acquisitions. In addition, if we fail to satisfy the covenants contained in the credit facility, our ability to borrow under the revolving credit loans portion of the credit facility may be restricted. The credit facility includes covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to do the following under certain circumstances:

•        incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain disqualified or preferred stock;

•        pay dividends or make other distributions on, or redeem or purchase any equity interests or make other restricted payments;

•        make certain acquisitions or investments;

•        create or incur liens;

•        transfer or sell assets;

•        incur restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions from our restricted subsidiaries;

•        alter the business that we conduct;

•        enter into transactions with affiliates; and

•        consummate a merger or consolidation or sell, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all our assets (other than the Business Combination).

Events beyond our control, including the impact of COVID-19, may affect our ability to comply with our covenants, even after the cessation of the second amendment suspension period. If we default under the credit facility because of a covenant breach or otherwise, all outstanding amounts thereunder could become immediately due and payable. We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with our covenants under the credit facility or that any covenant violations will be waived in the future. Any violation that is not waived could result in an event of default, permitting our lenders to declare outstanding indebtedness and interest thereon due and payable, and permitting the lenders under the revolving credit loans provided under the credit facility to suspend commitments to make any advance, or require any outstanding letters of credit to be collateralized by an interest bearing cash account, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if we fail to comply with our financial or other covenants under the credit facility, we may need additional financing to service or extinguish our indebtedness. We may not be able to obtain financing or refinancing on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We cannot assure you that we would have sufficient funds to repay outstanding amounts under the credit facility and any acceleration of amounts due would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

The success of our longer-term growth strategy depends in part on our ability to open and operate new centers profitably.

Our ability to timely and efficiently open new centers on a new-construction or acquisition basis and to operate these centers profitably is dependent on numerous factors including quality locations, acceptable lease or purchase agreements, zoning, use and other regulations, our liquidity, staffing needs and training, permitting, customer acceptance, impact on existing centers and financial performance targets. The timing of new location openings may result in significant fluctuations in our quarterly performance. We typically incur significant costs prior to opening for pre-opening and construction and increased labor and operating costs for a newly opened center.

Our failure to maintain or renew key agreements could adversely affect our ability to distribute our media content and/or other of our goods and services, which could adversely affect our operating results.

A portion of our profits is derived from our media content, which is distributed by cable, satellite and broadcast television networks and digital platforms around the globe. As detailed below, we have depended on and will continue to depend on, third parties for many aspects of the operation and distribution of PBA events. Any failure to maintain (such as due to a breach or alleged breach by either party) or renew arrangements with

distributors and platforms, the failure of distributors or platforms to continue to provide services to us or the failure to enter into new distribution opportunities on terms favorable to us could adversely affect our financial outlook, liquidity, business and operating results. We have relationships with Fox Sports, CBS Sports and Flo Bowling, which carry PBA events through their cable networks and streaming channels.

Many of our other goods and services, such as our merchandise and arcade games are manufactured and sold by other parties under licenses of our intellectual property or distribution agreements. Our inability for any reason to enter into, maintain and/or renew or replace, as the case may be, these agreements on terms favorable to us could adversely affect our financial outlook, liquidity, business and/or operating results.

Bowlero produces content, builds infrastructure and markets PBA events. If, for any number of reasons, we are unable to continue to develop and monetize this content successfully, it could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Need to Attract, Retain and Replace Fans.    We believe that the PBA has a passionate fan base. However, the markets for entertainment video are intensely competitive and include many subscription, transactional and ad-supported models and vast amounts of pirated materials, all of which capture segments of the entertainment video market. These markets have and are expected to continue to be subject to rapid changes, and new technologies and evolving business models are developing at a fast pace. We expect this competition to continue to grow and the markets to continue to transform. Many players that have entered this space have vastly greater financial and marketing resources than Bowlero as well as longer operating histories, large customer bases and strong brand recognition. These competitors may aggressively price their offerings and devote more technology and marketing resources. Certain of these competitors have begun to bundle digital networks. Other competitors for viewers of media content include broadcast, cable and satellite television, many of which have so-called “TV everywhere,” stand-alone streaming and/or “on demand” content, online movie and television content providers (both legal and illegal (pirated)), and ad-supported services such as YouTube. In non-pandemic times, viewers also commit viewing dollars to theatrical films, live events or other leisure activities. Our ability to attract and retain fans for PBA will depend in part on our ability to provide consistent high-quality content and a high level of service that is perceived as a good value for the consumer’s entertainment dollars in the face of this intense competition. Our failure to do so could adversely affect our business and operating results.

Impact of Government Regulations.    The adoption or modification of laws and regulations relating to our business could limit or otherwise adversely affect the manner in which we conduct our business. The growth and development of the market for online commerce has led to more stringent consumer protection laws, including privacy laws such as the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), imposing additional burdens on us. We may be required to comply with new regulations or legislation or new interpretations of existing regulations or legislation. This compliance could cause us to incur significant additional expense or alter our business model or could result in substantial fines, civil liability and/or harm to reputation for noncompliance. In addition, the delivery of PBA content in international markets exposes us to multiple regulatory frameworks and societal norms, the complexity of which may result in unintentional noncompliance which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

Our failure to continue to build and maintain our brand of entertainment could adversely affect our operating results.

We must continue to build and maintain our strong brand identity to attract and retain fans who have a number of entertainment choices. The creation, marketing and distribution of live events, programming and films that our fans value and enjoy are at the core of our business. The production of compelling live, televised, streamed and film content is critical to our ability to generate revenues across our media platforms and product outlets. Our ability to produce compelling content depends on our ability to attract professional bowlers to our tournaments. Professional bowlers are independent agents and make their own decisions on whether or not to participate in a tournament. In addition, we are dependent on advertising, sponsorship and marketing revenue from third parties in order to be able to host tournaments. If such third parties decide to sponsor or advertise at other types of sporting events, our costs for hosting tournaments will increase, and we may host fewer tournaments, resulting in a decrease in the amount of content that we can produce. We are also dependent on the U.S. Bowling Congress who own rights to certain tournaments, such as the US Open and the USBC Masters. PBA partners with the U.S. Bowling Congress

to deliver televised events for tournaments owned by the U.S. Bowling Congress. Our current agreements with the U.S. Bowling Congress provide for the delivery of televised content for such tournaments until 2022, and we may be unable to secure such rights after 2022 at attractive terms or at all. Also important are effective consumer communications, such as marketing, customer service and public relations. The role of social media by fans and by us is an important factor in our brand perception. If our efforts to create compelling services and goods and/or otherwise promote and maintain our brand, services and merchandise are not successful, our ability to attract and retain fans may be adversely affected. Such a result would likely lead to a decline in our television ratings, attendance at our live events post-pandemic, and/or otherwise impact our sales of goods and services, which would adversely affect our operating results.

Our failure to compete effectively in a rapidly evolving media landscape could adversely affect our operating results.

The manner in which audio/media content is distributed and viewed is constantly changing, and consumers have increasing options to access entertainment video. Changes in technology require our resources including personnel, capital and operating expenses. Conversely, technology changes have also decreased the cost of video production and distribution for certain programmers (such as through social media), which lowers the barriers to entry and increases the competition for viewership and revenues. While we attempt to distribute our programming across all platforms, our failure to continue to do so effectively (including, for example, our emphasizing a distribution platform that may in time lessen in importance or become obsolete or our loss of, or other inability to procure, carriage on an important platform) could adversely affect our operating results. If other providers of video programming address the changes in consumer viewing habits in a manner that is better able to meet content distributor and consumer needs and expectations, our business could be adversely affected. The number of subscribers and ratings of television networks and advertising revenues in general have been reported as being impacted by viewers moving to alternative media content providers, a process known as “cord cutting” and “cord shaving.” Many well-funded digital companies have been competing with the traditional television business model and, while it has been widely reported that they are paying significant amounts for media content, it is not clear that these digital distributors will replace the importance (in terms of money paid for content, viewer penetration and other factors) of television distribution to media content owners. Our media partners’ businesses are affected by their sale of advertising and subscriptions for their services. If they are unable to sell advertising and/or subscriptions either with regard to PBA programming specifically (such as, by way of example and without limitation, due to a decline in the popularity of our programming and/or brand) or all of their programing generally, it could adversely affect our operating results.

Changes in the regulatory atmosphere and related private sector initiatives could adversely affect our businesses.

Production of video programming by independent producers is generally not directly regulated by the federal or state governments in the United States. PBA events are on broadcast television on the Fox and CBS Networks, and we are responsible, directly or indirectly, for compliance with certain additional FCC regulations and statutory requirements applicable to programming distributed over television broadcast stations. Any failure to remain in compliance with these requirements could expose us to substantial costs and adverse publicity which could impact our operating results. Changes in FCC regulations, and the ongoing reallocation of satellite spectrum for “5G” next generation wireless broadband use, could impact the availability of satellite transmission spectrum for video programming distribution, which could increase the transmission costs of certain of our programming and/or affect transmission quality and reliability. The markets for programming in the United States and internationally may be substantially affected by government regulations applicable to, as well as social and political influences on, television stations and networks. We voluntarily designate the suitability of each of our television and PBA programs using standard industry ratings. Domestic and foreign governmental and private-sector initiatives relating to the production and distribution of video programming are announced from time to time. Compliance by our licensees of these initiatives and/or their noncompliance of governmental policies could restrict our program distribution and adversely affect our levels of viewership, result in adverse publicity and/or otherwise impact our operating results.

Risks Related to Information Technology and Cyber Security

Information technology system failures or interruptions may impact our ability to effectively operate our business.

We rely heavily on various information technology systems, including point-of-sale, kiosk and amusement operations systems in our centers, data centers that process transactions, communication systems and various other software applications used throughout our operations. Some of these systems have been internally developed or we rely on third-party providers and platforms for some of these information technology systems and support. Although we have operational safeguards in place, those technology systems and solutions could become vulnerable to damage, disability, or failures due to theft, fire, power outages, telecommunications failure or other catastrophic events. Any failure of these systems could significantly impact our operations and could make our content unavailable or degraded. These service disruptions could be prolonged. We rely on third-party service providers for certain key elements of our operations including credit card processing, telecommunications, utilities and delivery of video programming. Our reliance on systems operated by third parties also present the risk faced by the third party’s business, including the operational, cyber security, and credit risks of those parties. If those systems were to fail or otherwise be unavailable, and we were unable to timely recover, we could experience an interruption in our operations. Our business interruption insurance may not cover us in the event these types of business interruptions occur.

Cyber security breaches or other privacy or data security incidents that expose confidential customer, personal employee or other material, confidential information that is stored in our information systems or by third parties on our behalf may impact our business.

Many of our information technology systems (and those of our third-party business partners, whether cloud-based or hosted in proprietary servers), including those used for point-of-sale, web and mobile platforms, mobile payment systems and administrative functions, contain personal, financial or other information that is entrusted to us by our guests and associates. Many of our information technology systems also contain proprietary and other confidential information related to our business, such as business plans and initiatives. A cyber incident (generally any intentional or unintentional attack that results in unauthorized access resulting in disruption of systems, corruption of data, theft or exposure of confidential information or intellectual property) that compromises the information of our customers or employees could result in widespread negative publicity, damage to our reputation, a loss of customers, and disruption of our business.

The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and constantly changing requirements. Compliance with these requirements can be costly and time-consuming and the costs could adversely impact our results of operations due to necessary system changes and the development of new administrative processes. The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, provides a private right of action for data breaches and requires companies that process information about California residents to make new disclosures to consumers about their data collection, use and sharing practices and allow consumers to opt out of certain data sharing with third parties. Security breaches could also result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, and subject us to private consumer, business partner or securities litigation and governmental investigations and proceedings, any of which could result in our exposure to material civil or criminal liability. We are required to maintain the highest level of Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) Data Security Standard compliance at our corporate office and centers. If we do not maintain the required level of PCI compliance, we could be subject to costly fines or additional fees from the card brands that we accept or lose our ability to accept those payment cards. Additionally, an increasing number of government and industry groups have established laws and standards for the protection of personal and health information.

Our existing cyber security policy includes cyber security techniques, tactics, and procedures, including continuous monitoring and detection programs, network protections, annual employee training and awareness and incident response preparedness. In addition, we periodically scan our environment for any vulnerabilities, perform penetration testing and engage third parties to assess effectiveness of our security measures. We utilize a voluntary tool to help manage privacy risk by independently benchmarking our cyber security program to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, using an independent third party, and we share the results of our annual audit with our audit committee. Although we employ security technologies and practices and have taken other steps to try to prevent a breach, there are no assurances that such measures will prevent or detect cyber security breaches, and we may nevertheless not have the resources or technical sophistication to prevent rapidly evolving types of cyberattacks. We maintain a separate insurance policy covering cybersecurity risks and such insurance coverage may, subject to

policy terms and conditions, cover certain aspects of cyber risks, but this policy is subject to a retention amount and may not be applicable to a particular incident or otherwise may be insufficient to cover all our losses beyond any retention. Based on recent court rulings, there is uncertainty as to whether traditional commercial general liability policies will be construed to cover the expenses related to cyberattacks and breaches if credit and debit card information is stolen.

We have been and likely will continue to be, the target of cyber and other security threats. If in the future, we experience a security breach, we could become subject to claims, lawsuits or other proceedings for purportedly fraudulent transactions arising out of the theft of credit or debit card information, compromised security and information systems, failure of our employees to comply with applicable laws, the unauthorized acquisition or use of such information by third parties, or other similar claims.

Our reliance on computer systems and software could expose us to material financial and reputational harm if any of those computer systems or software were subject to any material disruption or corruption.

Our servers and those of third parties used in our business may be vulnerable to cybersecurity attacks, computer viruses (including worms, malware, ransomware and other destructive or disruptive software or denial of service attacks), physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions and could experience directed attacks intended to lead to interruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss, misuse, theft or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable company or subscriber data or information. Such a cybersecurity attack, virus, break-in, disruption or attack could remain undetected for an extended period, could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations, be expensive to remedy, expose us to litigation and/or damage our reputation. Our insurance may not cover expenses related to such disruptions or unauthorized access fully or at all.

Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to, or disable, degrade or sabotage, these systems and servers change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we and the third parties used in distribution of our content may be unable to anticipate these techniques, implement adequate preventative measures or remediate any intrusion on a timely or effective basis. Moreover, the development and maintenance of these preventative and detective measures is costly and requires ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become more sophisticated. Despite the efforts of us and/or third parties, the possibility of these events occurring cannot be eliminated.

Risks Related to the Location-Based Entertainment Industry

Our success depends upon our ability to recruit and retain qualified center management and operating personnel while also controlling our labor costs.

We must continue to attract, retain, and motivate qualified management and operating personnel to maintain consistency in our service, hospitality, quality, and atmosphere of our centers, and to also support future growth. Adequate staffing of qualified personnel is a critical factor impacting our guests’ experience in our centers. Qualified management and operating personnel are typically in high demand. Current unemployment subsidies and difficult pandemic-related operating demands are resulting in aggressive competition for talent, wage inflation and pressure to improve benefits and workplace conditions to remain competitive. If we are unable to attract and retain a satisfactory number of qualified management and operating personnel, labor shortages could delay the planned openings of new centers or adversely impact our existing centers. Any such delays, material increases in employee turnover rates in existing centers or widespread employee dissatisfaction could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Competition for qualified employees could require us to pay higher wages, which could result in higher labor costs and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our revenues and operating results may fluctuate significantly due to various risks and unforeseen circumstances, including increases in costs, seasonality, weather, acts of violence or terrorism and other factors outside our control.

Certain regions in which our centers are located have been, and may in the future be, subject to natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes. Depending upon its magnitude, a natural disaster could severely damage a cohort of our centers, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our corporate headquarters and our data center are located in Richmond, Virginia and our backup data

facility is located in Dallas, Texas. A natural or man-made disaster could significantly impact our ability to provide services and systems to our centers and negatively impact our operations. We currently maintain property and business interruption insurance.

Any act of violence at or threatened against our centers or the retail complexes in which they are located, including active shooter situations and terrorist activities, may result in restricted access to our centers and/or closures in the short-term and, in the long term, may cause our guests and associates to avoid visiting our centers. Any such situation could adversely impact cash flows and make it more difficult to fully staff our centers, which could materially adversely affect our business.

Our operating results fluctuate significantly due to seasonal factors. We typically generate our highest sales volumes during the third quarter of each fiscal year due to the timing of leagues, holidays and changing weather conditions. School operating schedules, holidays and weather conditions may also affect our sales volumes in some operating regions differently than others. In addition, unfavorable weather conditions during the winter and spring seasons could have a significant impact on our results. During 2020, results also fluctuated due to the timing and frequency of temporary closures and operating restrictions due to state and local guidelines imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our operations are susceptible to the changes in cost and availability of commodities and other products, which could negatively affect our operating results.

Our profitability depends in part on our ability to anticipate and react to changes in commodity and other product costs. Various factors beyond our control, including adverse weather conditions, governmental regulation and monetary policy, product availability, recalls of food products, disruption of our supplier manufacturing and distribution processes due to public health crises or pandemics, and seasonality, may affect our commodity costs or cause a disruption in our supply chain. In an effort to mitigate some of this risk, we have multiple short-term supply contracts with a limited number of suppliers. If any of these suppliers do not perform adequately or otherwise fail to distribute products or supplies to our centers, we may be unable to replace the suppliers in a short period of time on acceptable terms, which could increase our costs, cause shortages of food and other items at our centers and cause us to remove certain items from our menu. Changes in the price or availability of commodities for which we do not have short-term supply contracts could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. Expiring contracts with our food suppliers could also result in unfavorable renewal terms and therefore increase costs associated with these suppliers or may necessitate negotiations with other suppliers. Other than short-term supply contracts for certain food items and certain utilities contracts, we currently do not engage in futures contracts or other financial risk management strategies with respect to potential price fluctuations in the cost of food and other supplies. Also, the unplanned loss of a major distributor could adversely affect our business by disrupting our operations as we seek out and negotiate a new distribution contract. If we have to pay higher prices for food or other product costs, our operating costs may increase, and, if we are unable to adjust our purchasing practices or pass any cost increases on to our guests, our operating results could be adversely affected.

Our procurement of new games and amusement and entertainment offerings is contingent upon availability, and in some instances, our ability to obtain licensing rights.

Our ability to continue to procure new games, amusement and entertainment offerings, and other entertainment-related equipment is important to our business strategy. The number of suppliers from which we can purchase games, amusement offerings and other entertainment-related equipment is limited. To the extent the number of suppliers declines, we could be subject to the risk of distribution delays, pricing pressure, lack of innovation and other associated risks. We may not be able to anticipate and react to changing amusement offerings cost by adjusting purchasing practices or game prices, and a failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. In addition, any decrease in availability of new amusement offerings that appeal to guests could lead to decreases in revenues as guests negatively react to lack of new game options.

Our ability to develop future offerings is dependent on, among other things, obtaining rights to compelling game content and developing new amusement offerings that are accepted by our guests. There is no guarantee that additional licensing rights will be obtained by us or that our guests will accept the future offerings that we develop. The result could be increased expenses without increased revenues putting downward pressure on our results of operations and financial performance.

We may not be able to operate our centers or obtain/maintain licenses and permits necessary for such operation, in compliance with laws, regulations and other requirements, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We are subject to licensing and regulation by state and local authorities relating to the sale of alcoholic beverages, health, sanitation, safety, building and fire codes. Each center is required to obtain a license to sell alcoholic beverages on the premises from a state authority and, in certain locations, county and municipal authorities. Typically, licenses must be renewed annually and may be revoked or suspended for cause at any time. In some states, the loss of a license for cause with respect to one center may lead to the loss of licenses at all centers in that state and could make it more difficult to obtain additional licenses in that state. Alcoholic beverage control regulations relate to numerous aspects of the daily operations of each center, including minimum age of patrons and employees, hours of operation, advertising, wholesale purchasing, inventory control and handling and storage and dispensing of alcoholic beverages. We generally have not encountered any material difficulties or failures in obtaining and maintaining the required licenses, permits and approvals that could impact the continuing operations of an existing center, or delay or prevent the opening of a new center. Although we do not anticipate any material difficulties occurring in the future, the failure to receive or retain a liquor license, or any other required permit or license, in a particular location, or to continue to qualify for, or renew licenses, could have a material adverse effect on operations and our ability to obtain such a license or permit in other locations.

We are subject to extensive laws and regulations and failure to comply with existing or new laws and regulations could adversely affect our operational efficiencies, cost structure and talent availability.

Restrictions put in place by federal, state and local governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have caused operations and business at our centers to be impaired. While many states have rescinded such restrictions, it is not certain when all restrictions will be lifted in the remaining states where such restrictions are still in place.

We are also subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations that govern numerous aspects of our business, including the following:

•        the Fair Labor Standards Act and other federal, state and local laws and regulations that govern employment practices and working conditions, including minimum wage rates, wage and hour practices, gratuities, overtime, labor practices, various family leave mandates, discrimination and harassment, immigration, workplace safety and other areas;

•        the Americans with Disabilities Act and similar state laws that give civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities in the context of employment, public accommodations and other areas;

•        the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as amended by the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 (“PPACA”) and uncertainties surrounding future changes to or replacement of our health insurance system;

•        preparation, sale and labeling of food, including the federal regulations of the Food and Drug Administration, which oversees the safety of the entire food system, including inspection and mandatory food recalls, menu labeling and nutritional content, and additional requirements in certain states and local jurisdictions;

•        environmental laws and regulations governing, among other things, discharges of pollutants into the air and water as well as the presence, handling, release and disposal of and exposure to hazardous substances;

•        liquor laws and regulations governing the service and sale of alcohol; and

•        other environmental matters, such as climate change, the reduction of greenhouse gases, water consumption and animal health and welfare.

Compliance with these laws and regulations and future new laws or changes in laws or regulations that impose additional requirements can be costly. Any failure or perceived failure to comply with these laws or regulations could result in, among other things, revocation of required license, administrative enforcement actions, fines, civil and criminal liability, and/or closure of centers. We could also be strictly liable, without regard to fault, for certain

environmental conditions at properties we formerly owned or operated as well as at our current properties. Further, more stringent and varied requirements of local and state governmental bodies with respect to zoning, land use and environmental factors could delay or prevent development of new centers in certain locations.

We believe it is becoming increasingly likely that the United States federal government will significantly increase the federal minimum wage and tip credit wage (or eliminate the tip credit wage) and require significantly more mandated benefits than what is currently required under federal law. Should this happen, other jurisdictions that have historically mandated higher wages and greater benefits than what is required under federal law may seek to further increase wages and mandated benefits. In addition to increasing the overall wages paid to our minimum wage and tip credit wage earners, these increases create pressure to increase wages and other benefits paid to other associates who, in recognition of their tenure, performance, job responsibilities and other similar considerations, historically received a rate of pay exceeding the applicable minimum wage or minimum tip credit wage. Because we employ a large workforce, any wage increase and/or expansion of benefits mandates could have a particularly significant impact on our labor costs. Our vendors, contractors and business partners are similarly impacted by wage and benefit cost inflation, and many have or will increase their price for goods, construction, and services in order to offset their increasing labor costs. We may not be able to partially or fully offset cost increases resulting from changes in minimum wage rates by increasing bowling, menu or game prices, improving productivity, or through other adjustments, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Moreover, although only a few of our employees have been or are now represented by any unions, labor organizations may seek to represent an increasing number of our employees in the future, and if they are successful, our payroll expenses and other labor costs may be increased in the course of collective bargaining, and/or there may be strikes or other work disruptions that may adversely affect our business.

We face potential liability with our gift cards under the property laws of some states.

Our gift cards, which may be used to purchase bowling, food, beverages, merchandise and game play credits in our centers, may be considered stored value cards. Certain states include gift cards under their abandoned and unclaimed property laws and require companies to remit to the state cash in an amount equal to all or a designated portion of the unredeemed balance on the gift cards based on certain card attributes and the length of time that the cards are inactive. To date we have not remitted any amounts relating to unredeemed gift cards to states based upon our assessment of applicable laws.

The analysis of the potential application of the abandoned and unclaimed property laws to our gift cards is complex, involving an analysis of constitutional, statutory provisions and factual issues. In the event that one or more states change their existing abandoned and unclaimed property laws or successfully challenge our position on the application of its abandoned and unclaimed property laws to our gift cards, our liabilities with respect to unredeemed gift cards may be materially higher than the amounts shown in our financial statements. If we are required to materially increase the estimated liability recorded in our financial statements with respect to unredeemed gift cards, our net income could be materially and adversely affected.

Litigation, including allegations of illegal, unfair or inconsistent employment practices, may adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our business may be adversely affected by the risk of legal proceedings brought by or on behalf of our customers, employees, suppliers, shareholders, government agencies or others through private actions, class actions, administrative proceedings, regulatory actions or other litigation. In recent years, a number of companies have been subject to lawsuits, including class action lawsuits, alleging violations of federal and state law regarding workplace and employment matters, discrimination and similar matters, and a number of these lawsuits have resulted in the payment of substantial damages by the defendants. We have had from time to time and now have such lawsuits pending against us. In addition, from time to time, customers file complaints or lawsuits against us alleging that we are responsible for some illness or injury they suffered at or after a visit to a center. We are also subject to a variety of other claims in the ordinary course of business, including personal injury, lease, and contract claims.

We are also subject to “dram shop” statutes in certain states in which our centers are located. These statutes generally provide a person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to the intoxicated individual. Recent litigation against restaurant chains has resulted in significant judgments and settlements under dram shop statutes. Because these cases often seek punitive

damages, which may not be covered by insurance, such litigation could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Regardless of whether any claims against us are valid or whether we are liable, claims may be expensive to defend and may divert time and money away from operations and hurt our financial performance. A judgment significantly in excess of our insurance coverage or not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Also, adverse publicity resulting from these allegations may materially affect our centers and us.

Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could harm our business.

We regard our intellectual property as having significant value and being important to our marketing efforts. We use a combination of intellectual property rights, such as trademarks and trade secrets, to protect our brand and certain other proprietary processes and information material to our business. The success of our business strategy depends, in part, on our continued ability to use our intellectual property rights to increase brand awareness and further develop our branded products in both existing and new markets. If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, we may lose an important advantage in the markets in which we compete. If third parties misappropriate or infringe our intellectual property, the value of our image, brand and the goodwill associated therewith may be diminished, our brand may fail to achieve and maintain market recognition, and our competitive position may be harmed, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our revenues. Policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent the violation or misappropriation of such intellectual property rights by others. To protect our intellectual property, we may become involved in litigation, which could result in substantial expenses, divert the attention of management and adversely affect our revenue, financial condition and results of operations.

We cannot be certain that our products and services do not and will not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. Any such claims, regardless of merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to litigate or settle, divert the attention of management, cause significant delays, materially disrupt the conduct of our business and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. As a consequence of such claims, we could be required to pay a substantial damage award, take a royalty-bearing license, discontinue the use of third-party products used within our operations and/or rebrand our products and services.

We conduct business internationally, which exposes us to additional risks.

Our ability to successfully conduct operations in international markets is affected by many of the same risks we face in our U.S. operations, as well as unique costs and difficulties of managing international operations. Our international operations, which accounted for $7.1 million in revenues for the fiscal years 2020, expose us to certain additional risks, including:

•        difficulty in staffing international operations;

•        different political, economic and regulatory conditions;

•        local laws and customs;

•        violations of anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws, such as the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act;

•        violations of economic sanctions laws, such as the regulations enforced by the U.S. Department of The Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control;

•        currency fluctuations;

•        limitations on our ability to enforce legal rights and remedies with third parties or partners outside the United States;

•        adverse tax consequences; and

•        dependence on other economies.

Fluctuations in other factors relating to international operations, such as tariffs, transportation costs and inflation are additional risks for our international operations.

General Risk Factors

Changes in tax laws and resulting regulations could result in changes to our tax provisions and subject us to additional tax liabilities that could materially adversely affect our financial performance.

We are subject to income, sales, use and other taxes in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions including Mexico and Canada. Changes in applicable U.S. or foreign tax laws and regulations, including the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), or their interpretation and application, including the possibility of retroactive effect and changes to state tax laws that may occur in response to the Tax Act or the CARES Act, could affect our effective income tax rate. In addition, the final determination of any tax audits or related litigation could be materially different from our historical tax provisions and accruals. Changes in our tax expense or an increase in our tax liabilities, whether due to changes in applicable laws and regulation, the interpretation or application thereof, or a final determination of tax audits or litigation, could materially adversely affect our financial performance.

Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited in connection with the business combination or other ownership changes.

Bowlero has incurred losses during its history. To the extent that it continues to generate taxable losses, unused losses will carry forward to offset future taxable income, if any, until such unused losses expire, if at all. As of June 28, 2020, Bowlero had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $530,943,000. Under the Tax Act, as modified by the CARES Act, U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards generated in taxable periods beginning after December 31, 2017, may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such net operating loss carryforwards in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2020, is limited to 80% of taxable income. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the Tax Act or the CARES Act.

In addition, Bowlero’s net operating loss carryforwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Serivce (“IRS”), and state tax authorities. Under Sections 382 and 383 of the Code, Bowlero’s federal net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may become subject to an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership of Bowlero’s stock. An “ownership change” pursuant to Section 382 of the Code generally occurs if one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders who own at least 5% of a company’s stock increase their ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage within a rolling three-year period. Bowlero’s ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities may be limited as a result of ownership changes, including potential changes in connection with the business combination or other transactions. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. We have not yet determined the amount of the cumulative change in Bowlero’s ownership resulting from the Business Combination or other transactions, or any resulting limitations on Bowlero’s ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes. If Bowlero earns taxable income, such limitations could result in increased future income tax liability to it and Bowlero’s future cash flows could be adversely affected. We have recorded a valuation allowance related to Bowlero’s net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the ultimate realization of the future benefits of those assets.

Failure of our internal control over financial reporting could harm our business and financial results.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that we would prevent or detect a misstatement of our financial statements or fraud. Any failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, including such a failure or inability to provide timely reporting about the effectiveness of their controls of our third-party service providers on whose controls we rely, could limit our ability to report our financial results accurately and timely or to detect and prevent fraud. Historically, Bowlero has had several material weaknesses and significant accounting deficiencies, which may occur again. A significant financial reporting failure or material weakness in internal control over financial reporting could result in substantial cost to remediate and could cause a loss of investor confidence and

decline in the market price of our stock. See “— The obligations associated with being a public company will involve significant expenses and will require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from New Bowlero’s business operations.”

We identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to remediate these material weaknesses, identify additional material weaknesses, or if we otherwise fail to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be adversely affected.

We identified control deficiencies in the design and implementation of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2021 that constituted material weaknesses. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We did not design and maintain effective controls over certain technical or complex areas, including pushdown accounting, lease accounting, income taxes and stock based compensation. This led to the misstatements in goodwill and additional paid-in capital, capital lease obligation and capital lease assets, deferred tax liability and stock based compensation, described in detail in footnote 3-A of the consolidated financial statements.

We have begun implementing a plan to remediate the material weaknesses described above, including hiring staff with more technical accounting skills and engaging third-party experts to assist in accounting for income taxes, valuation and other technical areas, as well as the development of more formal internal control processes. Since the original error causing the overstatement of goodwill in Fiscal year 2018, we have already significantly enhanced the technical capabilities of our staff; however, the material weaknesses will not be remediated until our remediation plan has been fully implemented and we have concluded that our controls are designed and operating effectively for a sufficient period of time. We expect to remediate these material weaknesses before the end of our fiscal year ended July 3, 2022. However, we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to the material weaknesses or avoid future material weaknesses. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the possibility of human error and the risk of fraud. If we are unable to remediate the material weaknesses or we identify other material weaknesses in the future, our ability to record, process and report financial information accurately, and to prepare financial statements within the time periods required under SEC rules, could be adversely affected. This may in turn adversely affect our reputation and business and the market price of our securities. In addition, any such failures could result in litigation or regulatory actions by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, loss of investor confidence, delisting of our common stock and diversion of financial and management resources from the operation of our business.

We are not currently required to comply with the rules of the SEC implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and are therefore not required to make a formal assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for that purpose. As a public company, we will be required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will require management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Though we will be required to disclose changes made in our internal control over financial reporting on a quarterly basis, we will not be required to make our first annual assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 until the year following our first annual report required to be filed with the SEC.

Risks Related to the Business Combination and Isos

The Sponsor and LionTree have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how Isos’s public shareholders vote.

Unlike some other blank check companies in which the initial shareholders agree to vote their shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the public shareholders in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor and LionTree have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and LionTree collectively own 20.0% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

We may be forced to close the Business Combination even if we determined it is no longer in our shareholders’ best interest.

Our public shareholders are protected from a material adverse event of Bowlero arising between the date of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing primarily by (i) the right to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account, calculated as of two business days prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting, and (ii) the closing condition in the Business Combination Agreement that there be no occurrence that would have a material adverse effect (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) on Bowlero.

Since the Sponsor, LionTree and Isos’s directors and executive officers have interests that are different, or in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of our shareholders, a conflict of interest may have existed in determining whether the Business Combination with Bowlero is appropriate as our initial business combination. Such interests include that Sponsor and LionTree will lose their entire investment in us if the Business Combination is not completed.

When you consider the recommendation of Isos’s board of directors in favor of approval of the BCA Proposal, you should keep in mind that the Sponsor, LionTree and Isos’s directors and executive officers have interests in such proposal that are different from, or in addition to, those of Isos shareholders and warrant holders generally. These interests include, among other things, the interests listed below:

•        the 3,963,458 private placement warrants purchased by the Sponsor and the 1,434,370 private placement warrants purchased by LionTree in connection with the IPO for approximately $5.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively (which would be valued at approximately $4.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, based on the $1.05 closing price of Isos warrants on September 10, 2021), will be worthless if a business combination is not consummated by March 5, 2023 (as may be extended);

•        the fact that Sponsor paid a nominal amount for its 5,814,636 founder shares and LionTree paid a nominal amount for its 556,289 founder shares, which such founder shares (if unrestricted and freely tradeable), would be valued at approximately $57.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, based on the $9.94 closing price of Isos Class A common stock on September 10, 2021, and that such shares will be worthless if a business combination is not consummated;

•        the fact that Sponsor and LionTree have agreed not to redeem any of their founders shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination;

•        the fact that upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Sponsor and LionTree are expected to hold an economic ownership in New Bowlero as further described in “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Ownership of New Bowlero following the Business Combination” through their ownership of founder shares as described above;

•        the fact that upon completion of the Business Combination, an aggregate amount of $8.6 million in M&A advisory fees, $3.6 million in deferred underwriters’ compensation, and $1.8 million of placement agent fees (payable in connection with the PIPE Offerings) will be payable to LionTree;

•        if the trust account is liquidated, including in the event Isos is unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, the Sponsor and LionTree have agreed to indemnify Isos to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced below $10.00 per public share by the claims

of prospective target businesses with which Isos has entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to Isos, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account;

•        the fact that Isos’s existing officers and directors will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy after the business combination and pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement; and

•        George Barrios and Michelle Wilson, Isos’s Co-Chief Executive Officers, each of whom is currently a director of Isos, are expected to be directors of New Bowlero after the consummation of the Business Combination, in connection with which they may receive fees for their service as directors.

These interests may influence Isos’s officers and directors in making their recommendation with regard to Isos stockholders’ vote on the Proposals.

The exercise of Isos’s directors’ and executive officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Business Combination may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Business Combination or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in Isos’s shareholders’ best interest.

In the period leading up to the Closing, events may occur that, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, would require Isos to agree to amend the Business Combination Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by Bowlero or to waive rights that Isos is entitled to under the Business Combination Agreement. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of Bowlero’s business or a request by Bowlero to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be at Isos’s discretion, acting through its board of directors, to grant its consent or waive those rights. The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of the directors described in the preceding risk factors (and described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus) may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is best for Isos and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Isos does not believe there will be any changes or waivers that Isos’s directors and executive officers would be likely to make after shareholder approval of the BCA Proposal has been obtained. While certain changes could be made without further shareholder approval, Isos will circulate a new or amended proxy statement/prospectus and resolicit Isos’s shareholders if changes to the terms of the transaction that would have a material impact on its shareholders are required prior to the vote on the BCA Proposal.

We and Bowlero will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination.

We and Bowlero have both incurred and expect to incur significant, non-recurring costs in connection with consummating the Business Combination and operating as a public company following the consummation of the Business Combination. We and Bowlero may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. Certain transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination Agreement (including the Business Combination), including all legal, accounting, consulting, investment banking and other fees, expenses and costs, will be paid by out of the proceeds of the Business Combination or by New Bowlero following the closing of the Business Combination.

The announcement of the proposed Business Combination could disrupt Bowlero’s and/or New Bowlero’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, business partners and others, as well as its operating results and business generally.

Whether or not the Business Combination and related transactions are ultimately consummated, as a result of uncertainty related to the proposed transactions, risks relating to the impact of the announcement of the Business Combination on Bowlero’s and New Bowlero’s business include the following:

•        its employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles, which might adversely affect Bowlero’s and New Bowlero’s ability to retain and hire key personnel and other employees;

•        customers, suppliers, business partners and other parties with which Bowlero maintains business relationships may experience uncertainty about the future of these relationships in light of the Business Combination and seek alternative relationships with third parties, seek to alter their business relationships with New Bowlero or fail to extend an existing relationship with Bowlero to New Bowlero; and

•        Bowlero has expended and New Bowlero will continue to expend significant costs, fees and expenses for professional services and transaction costs in connection with the proposed Business Combination.

If any of the aforementioned risks were to materialize, they could lead to significant costs which may impact New Bowlero’s results of operations and cash available to fund its businesses.

Subsequent to consummation of the Business Combination, we may be exposed to unknown or contingent liabilities and may be required to subsequently take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and our share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

We cannot assure you that the due diligence conducted in relation to Bowlero has identified all material issues or risks associated with Bowlero, its business or the industry in which it competes.

Furthermore, we cannot assure you that factors outside of Bowlero’s and our control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, we may be exposed to liabilities and incur additional costs and expenses and we may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure our operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in our reporting losses. Even if our due diligence has identified certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with our preliminary risk analysis. If any of these risks materialize, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and could contribute to negative market perceptions about our securities or the securities of New Bowlero. Additionally, we have no indemnification rights against Bowlero or Bowlero Stockholders under the Business Combination Agreement and all of the purchase price consideration will be delivered at the Closing.

Accordingly, any shareholders or warrant holders of Isos who choose to remain stockholders or warrant holders in New Bowlero following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares, warrants and units. Such shareholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value unless they are able to successfully claim that the reduction was due to the breach by our directors or officers of a duty of care or other fiduciary duty owed to them, or if they are able to successfully bring a private claim under securities laws that the registration statement or proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination contained an actionable material misstatement or material omission.

You may not have the same benefits as an investor in an underwritten public offering.

Like other business combination transactions and spin-offs, in connection with the Business Combination, you will not receive the benefits of the diligence performed by the underwriters in an underwritten public offering. Investors in an underwritten public offering may benefit from the role of the underwriters in such an offering. In an underwritten public offering, an issuer initially sells its securities to the public market via one or more underwriters, who distribute or resell such securities to the public. Underwriters have liability under the U.S. securities laws for material misstatements or omissions in a registration statement pursuant to which an issuer sells securities.

Because the underwriters have a defense to any such liability by, among other things, conducting a reasonable investigation, the underwriters and their counsel conduct a “due diligence” investigation of the issuer. Due diligence entails engaging legal, financial and/or other experts to perform an investigation as to the accuracy of an issuer’s disclosure regarding, among other things, its business and financial results. Auditors of the issuer also will deliver a “comfort” letter with respect to the financial information contained in the registration statement. In making their investment decision, investors in underwritten public offerings have the benefit of such diligence.

In contrast, Isos and Bowlero each have engaged a financial advisor (rather than underwriters) in connection with the Business Combination. The role of a financial advisor typically differs from that of an underwriter. For example, financial advisors do not act as intermediaries in the public sale of securities and therefore do not face the same potential liability under the U.S. securities laws as underwriters. As a result, financial advisors typically do not undertake the same level of, or any, due diligence investigation of the issuer as is typically undertaken by underwriters.

In connection with this proxy statement/prospectus, no parties other than Isos and Bowlero have conducted an investigation of the disclosure contained herein. In addition, as an unaffiliated investor, you will not be afforded the opportunity to perform your own due diligence investigation of, or otherwise obtain information on, Isos or Bowlero beyond the information that is contained in this proxy statement/prospectus (or is otherwise publicly available). You therefore may not have the benefit of the same level of review as an investor in an underwritten public offering, who has the benefit of the underwriters’ evaluation and due diligence investigation of the issuer.

The historical financial results of Bowlero and unaudited pro forma financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what New Bowlero’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been.

The historical financial results of Bowlero included in this proxy statement/prospectus do not reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows it would have achieved as a standalone company during the periods presented or those New Bowlero will achieve in the future. This is primarily the result of the following factors: (i) New Bowlero will incur additional ongoing costs as a result of the Business Combination, including costs related to public company reporting, investor relations and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and (ii) New Bowlero’s capital structure will be different from that reflected in Bowlero’s historical financial statements. New Bowlero’s financial condition and future results of operations could be materially different from amounts reflected in its historical financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, so it may be difficult for investors to compare New Bowlero’s future results to historical results or to evaluate its relative performance or trends in its business.

Similarly, the unaudited pro forma financial information in this proxy statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions, including, but not limited to, Isos being treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes in the Business Combination, the total debt obligations and the cash and cash equivalents of Bowlero on the Closing Date and the number of Isos Class A ordinary shares that are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. Accordingly, such pro forma financial information may not be indicative of New Bowlero’s future operating or financial performance and New Bowlero’s actual financial condition and results of operations may vary materially from New Bowlero’s pro forma results of operations and balance sheet contained elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, including as a result of such assumptions not being accurate. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, our only significant asset will be our ownership interest in Bowlero and such ownership may not be sufficient to pay dividends or make distributions or loans to enable us to pay any dividends on New Bowlero’s common stock or satisfy our other financial obligations.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will have no direct operations and no significant assets other than our ownership of Bowlero. We and certain investors, the Bowlero Stockholders, and directors and officers of Bowlero and its affiliates will become stockholders of New Bowlero. We will depend on Bowlero for distributions, loans and other payments to generate the funds necessary to meet our financial obligations, including our expenses as a publicly traded company and to pay any dividends with respect to New Bowlero’s common stock. The financial condition and operating requirements of Bowlero may limit our ability to obtain cash from Bowlero. The earnings from, or other available assets of, Bowlero may not be sufficient to pay dividends or make distributions or loans to enable us to pay any dividends on New Bowlero’s common stock or satisfy our other financial obligations.

This lack of diversification may subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory risks, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to the Business Combination.

The Sponsor may elect to purchase shares or warrants from public shareholders prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which may influence the vote on the Business Combination and reduce the public “float” of our securities.

At any time at or prior to the Business Combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), the Sponsor, LionTree, the existing stockholders of Bowlero or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may (i) purchase public shares or warrants from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against any of the Condition Precedent Proposals, or elect to redeem, or indicate an intention to redeem, public shares, (ii) execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or (iii) enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the Condition Precedent Proposals or not redeem their public shares. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of Isos’s shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, LionTree, the existing stockholders of Bowlero or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors, or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of (1) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the BCA Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, (2) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the Domestication Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposals, (3) satisfaction of the Minimum Cash Condition, (4) otherwise limiting the number of public shares electing to redeem and (5) our net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51(g) (1) of the Exchange Act) being at least $5,000,001. The purpose of such purchases of public warrants would be to reduce the number of public warrants outstanding or to vote such warrants on any matters submitted to the warrant holders or shareholders for approval in connection with our initial business combination.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on our ordinary shares (e.g., by giving an investor or holder the ability to effectively purchase shares or warrants at a price lower than market, such investor or holder may therefore become more likely to sell the shares he or she owns, either at or prior to the Business Combination). If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be consummated in circumstances where such consummation could not otherwise occur. Purchases of shares or warrants by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting and would likely increase the chances that such proposals would be approved. In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our securities and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price per unit in our initial public offering).

Our placing of funds in the trust account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than our independent auditors), prospective target businesses and other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver only if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative.

Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third-party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Upon redemption of our public shares, if we have not completed the Business Combination within the required time period, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with the Business Combination, we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption. Accordingly, the per share redemption amount received by public shareholders could be less than the $10.00 per public share initially held in the trust account, due to claims of such creditors.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than our independent auditors) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below (i) $10.00 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account and except as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. We have not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company. The Sponsor may not have sufficient funds available to satisfy those obligations. We have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations, and therefore, no funds are currently set aside to cover any such obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the trust account, the funds available for the Business Combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share. In such event, we may not be able to complete the Business Combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your public shares. None of our directors or officers will indemnify us for claims by third parties, including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, Isos files a winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties, thereby exposing the members of our board of directors and us to claims of damages.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or insolvency laws as a voidable performance. As a result, a liquidator could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. In addition, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing it and us to claims of damages. We cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our shareholders and the per share amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy or insolvency petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable insolvency law, and may be included in our liquidation estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders. To the extent any liquidation claims deplete the trust account, the per share amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation would be reduced.

Our shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.

If we enter into an insolvency proceeding, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that, for example, immediately following the distribution, we were unable to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. As a result, a liquidator could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. Furthermore, our directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to us or our creditors or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing themselves and our company to claims, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. We cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Isos’s public shareholders will experience dilution as a consequence of, among other transactions, the issuance of New Bowlero common stock as consideration in the Business Combination and in connection with the Common PIPE Offering. Isos’s public shareholders may be further diluted due to, among other things, issuances of equity pursuant to the exercise of options or under the Equity Incentive Plan, conversion of the New Bowlero preferred stock being issued in the Convertible PIPE Offering, or the issuance of Earnout Shares to Bowlero Stockholders and vesting of earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree as a result of certain share price triggers being achieved.

The issuance of a significant number of New Bowlero common stock to Bowlero Stockholders in the Business Combination and in connection with the Common PIPE Offering will dilute the equity interest of existing Isos shareholders and may adversely affect prevailing market prices for New Bowlero common stock and/or warrants.

In addition, future issuances of New Bowlero common stock, including under the Equity Incentive Plan, pursuant to the exercise of Bowlero options (assuming all of the option holders elect to have their options converted into New Bowlero options in connection with the Business Combination), or the vesting of any Earn-Out Shares or earnout shares held by the Sponsor and LionTree, would dilute current stockholders’ ownership percentage. Any such issuance could have a material adverse effect on the price of the New Bowlero Class A common stock. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, assuming the consummation of the Business Combination and no exercise of Bowlero options prior to or in connection with the Business Combination, New Bowlero would have outstanding options exercisable for 32,566,697 additional shares of New Bowlero common stock, with an aggregate exercise price of $190.1 million, amounting to approximately 15.7% of the issued and outstanding shares assuming a $10.00 share price, no vesting of any Earn-Out Shares and the other assumptions set forth in the section entitled “Summary of the Proxy Statement Prospectus — Ownership of New Bowlero following the Business Combination.” In addition, upon consummation of the Business Combination, there will be a maximum of 31,562,770 shares of New Bowlero common stock available for issuance, assuming no redemptions and no vesting of any Earn-Out Shares, and without giving effect to any evergreen provisions under the Equity Incentive Plan of ESPP, amounting to approximately 18% of the total number of shares of New Bowlero common stock issued and outstanding immediately upon Closing.

In addition, Isos public shareholders who redeem their Isos ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination will receive New Bowlero warrants in exchange for Isos warrants they owned prior to redemption, which results in additional dilution to non-redeeming holders upon exercise of such Isos warrants. Assuming (i) all redeeming Isos public shareholders acquired Isos units in the IPO and continued to hold all the Isos warrants that were included in the Isos units, and (ii) maximum redemption of the Isos ordinary shares held by the redeeming Isos public shareholders, 2,665,964 Isos warrants would be retained by redeeming Isos shareholders (and exchanged for an equal number of New Bowlero warrants), with an aggregate value of approximately $2.8 million, based on the closing price of $1.05 of the Isos warrants as of September 10, 2021. As a result, the redeeming Isos shareholders would recoup their entire investment and hold New Bowlero warrants with an aggregate market value of approximately $2.8 million. In the event the non-redeeming holders exercise such Isos warrants, non-redeeming Isos shareholders would suffer additional dilution in their percentage ownership and voting interest of New Bowlero.

For more, see “Summary of the Proxy Statement Prospectus — Ownership of New Bowlero following the Business Combination.”

Even if the Business Combination is consummated, the terms of the warrants may be amended in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment.

The warrants were issued in registered form under a Warrant Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and Isos. The Warrant Agreement provides that (a) the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision or correct any mistake, including to conform the provisions of the warrant agreement to the description of the terms of the warrants and the Warrant Agreement set forth in the IPO Prospectus, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then-outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the public warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 65% of the then-outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, 50% of the number of the then-outstanding private placement warrants.

Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the public warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the public warrants with the consent of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, shorten the exercise period or decrease the number of shares of New Bowlero common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant.

We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

We have the ability to redeem the outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant if, among other things, the last reported sale price of New Bowlero Class A common stock for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like). Redemption of the outstanding warrants as described above could force you to: (i) exercise your warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so; (ii) sell your warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your warrants; or (iii) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, we expect would be substantially less than the market value of your warrants. None of the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us (subject to limited exceptions) so long as they are held by our Sponsor, LionTree or their permitted transferees.

In addition, we have the ability to redeem the outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.10 per warrant if, among other things, the last reported sale price of New Bowlero Class A common stock for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like). In such a case, the holders will be able to exercise their warrants prior to redemption for a number of shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of New Bowlero Class A common stock. The value received upon exercise of the warrants (i) may be less than the value the holders would have received if they had exercised their warrants at a later time where the underlying share price is higher and (ii) may not compensate the holders for the value of the warrants, including because the number of ordinary shares received is capped at 0.361 New Bowlero Class A common shares per warrant (subject to adjustment) irrespective of the remaining life of the warrants.

Following the Business Combination, New Bowlero currently intends to retain its future earnings, if any, to finance the further development and expansion of its business and does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of New Bowlero Board and will depend on its financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and future agreements and financing instruments, business prospects and such other factors as its board of directors deems relevant.

NYSE may not list New Bowlero’s securities on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in New Bowlero’s securities and subject New Bowlero to additional trading restrictions.

In connection with the Business Combination, in order to continue to maintain the listing of securities on the NYSE, we will be required to demonstrate New Bowlero’s compliance with the NYSE’s initial listing requirements, which are more rigorous than the NYSE’s continued listing requirements. We will apply to have New Bowlero’s securities listed on the NYSE upon consummation of the Business Combination. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet all initial listing requirements. Even if New Bowlero’s securities are listed on the NYSE, New Bowlero may be unable to maintain the listing of its securities in the future.

If New Bowlero fails to meet the initial listing requirements and the NYSE does not list its securities on its exchange, Bowlero would not be required to consummate the Business Combination. In the event that Bowlero elected to waive this condition, and the Business Combination was consummated without New Bowlero’s securities being listed on the NYSE or on another national securities exchange, New Bowlero could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

•        a limited availability of market quotations for New Bowlero’s securities;

•        reduced liquidity for New Bowlero’s securities;

•        a determination that New Bowlero common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in New Bowlero common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for New Bowlero’s securities;

•        a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

•        a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” If New Bowlero’s securities are not listed on the NYSE, such securities would not qualify as covered securities and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities because states are not preempted from regulating the sale of securities that are not covered securities.

Our outstanding warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities with changes in fair value each period included in earnings, which may have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities.

We account for our outstanding warrants as derivative warrant liabilities. At each reporting period, (1) the accounting treatment of the outstanding warrants will be re-evaluated for proper accounting treatment as a liability or equity, and (2) the fair value of the liability of the public warrants and private placement warrants will be remeasured and the change in the fair value of the liability will be recorded as other income (expense) in our income statement. The impact of changes in fair value on earnings may have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities.

Additional Risks Related to Ownership of New Bowlero Common Stock Following the Business Combination and New Bowlero Operating as a Public Company

The price of New Bowlero’s common stock and warrants may be volatile.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the price of New Bowlero’s common stock, as well as New Bowlero’s warrants, may fluctuate due to a variety of factors, including:

•        developments involving New Bowlero’s competitors;

•        changes in laws and regulations affecting its business;

•        variations in its operating performance and the performance of its competitors in general;

•        actual or anticipated fluctuations in New Bowlero’s quarterly or annual operating results;

•        publication of research reports by securities analysts about New Bowlero or its competitors or its industry;

•        the public’s reaction to New Bowlero’s press releases, its other public announcements and its filings with the SEC;

•        actions by stockholders, including the sale by PIPE Investors of any of their securities;

•        additions and departures of key personnel;

•        commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving New Bowlero;

•        changes in its capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;

•        the volume of shares of New Bowlero common stock available for public sale; and

•        general economic and political conditions, such as the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, recessions, interest rates, local and national elections, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations, corruption, political instability and acts of war or terrorism.

These market and industry factors may materially reduce the market price of New Bowlero common stock and warrants regardless of the operating performance of New Bowlero.

New Bowlero does not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future.

Following the Business Combination, New Bowlero currently intends to retain its future earnings, if any, to finance the further development and expansion of its business and does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of New Bowlero Board and will depend on its financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, restrictions contained in future agreements and financing instruments, business prospects and such other factors as its board of directors deems relevant.

If analysts do not publish research about New Bowlero’ business or if they publish inaccurate or unfavorable research, New Bowlero’s stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for New Bowlero common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that analysts publish about its business. New Bowlero does not have any control over these analysts. If one or more of the analysts who cover New Bowlero downgrade its common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about its business, the price of New Bowlero’s common stock could decline. If few analysts cover New Bowlero, the demand for its common stock could decrease and its common stock price and trading volume may decline. Similar results may occur if one or more of these analysts stop covering New Bowlero in the future or fail to publish reports on it regularly.

New Bowlero may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.

The market price of New Bowlero’s common stock may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. New Bowlero may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against New Bowlero could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm its business.

Future resales of New Bowlero’s common stock after the consummation of the Business Combination may cause the market price of New Bowlero’s securities to drop significantly, even if New Bowlero’s business is performing well.

In connection with the Business Combination, Bowlero Stockholders and certain of Bowlero’s officers (the “Bowlero Lock-up Parties”) entered into a lock-up agreement pursuant to which they will be contractually restricted from selling or transferring any of (i) their shares of New Bowlero common stock held immediately following the Closing and (ii) any of their shares of New Bowlero common stock that result from converting securities held immediately following the Closing (the “Lock-up Shares”). Such restrictions begin at Closing and end on the date that is the earlier of (i) 180 days after the Closing, and (ii) the first date on which the last reported

sale price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period (provided if such date occurs prior to 90 days after Closing, it shall be deemed to have occurred on the 90th day after the Closing).

The Sponsor and LionTree are subject to a lock-up pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement dated July 1, 2021, by and among Isos, the Sponsor, LionTree and the other parties thereto, pursuant to which the Sponsor and LionTree are subject to a lock-up ending on the one year anniversary of the Closing.

However, following the expiration of the applicable lock-ups, the Sponsor, LionTree and the Bowlero Lock-up Parties will not be restricted from selling shares of New Bowlero’s common stock held by them, other than by applicable securities laws. Additionally, the PIPE Investors will not be restricted from selling any of their New Bowlero securities following the closing of the Business Combination, other than by applicable securities laws. As such, sales of a substantial number of shares of New Bowlero’s common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock. Upon completion of the Business Combination, the Sponsor, LionTree and the Bowlero Lock-up Parties will collectively beneficially own more than 80% of the outstanding shares of New Bowlero’s common stock, assuming that no public shareholders redeem their public shares in connection with the Business Combination.

The shares held by the Sponsor, LionTree and the Lock-up Parties may be sold after the expiration of their applicable lock-up periods. As restrictions on resale end and registration statements (filed after the Closing to provide for the resale of such shares from time to time) are available for use, the sale or possibility of sale of these shares could have the effect of increasing the volatility in New Bowlero’s price or securities or the market price of New Bowlero Class A common stock could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

The obligations associated with being a public company will involve significant expenses and will require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from New Bowlero’s business operations.

As a public company, New Bowlero will become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Exchange Act requires the filing of annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to a public company’s business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that a public company establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. As a result, New Bowlero will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that Bowlero did not previously incur since Bowlero has had significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting. New Bowlero’s entire management team and many of its other employees will need to devote substantial time to compliance, and may not effectively or efficiently manage its transition into a public company.

These rules and regulations will result in New Bowlero incurring substantial legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations will likely make it more difficult and more expensive for New Bowlero to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and it may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be difficult for New Bowlero to attract and retain qualified people to serve on its board of directors, its board committees or as executive officers.

Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate the Business Combination, require substantial financial and management resources and increase the time and costs of completing a business combination.

The fact that we are a blank check company makes compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act particularly burdensome on us as compared to other public companies because Bowlero is not currently subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The standards required for a public company under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are significantly more stringent than those required of Bowlero as a privately held company. Management may not be able to effectively and timely implement controls and procedures that adequately respond to the increased regulatory compliance and reporting requirements that will be applicable to New Bowlero after the Business Combination. If we are not able to implement the requirements of Section 404, including any additional requirements once we are no longer an emerging growth company, in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we may not be able to assess whether our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, which may subject

us to adverse regulatory consequences and could harm investor confidence and the market price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock. Additionally, once New Bowlero is no longer an emerging growth company, it will be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting.

We are currently an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and to the extent we have taken advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies, this could make our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.

We are currently an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As a result, our shareholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. We cannot predict whether investors will find our securities less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of our securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the trading prices of our securities may be more volatile.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accountant standards used.

If we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will no longer be able to take advantage of certain exemptions from reporting, and, absent other exemptions or relief available from the SEC, we will also be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We will incur additional expenses in connection with such compliance and our management will need to devote additional time and effort to implement and comply with such requirements.

Delaware law and New Bowlero’s Proposed Organizational Documents contain certain provisions, including anti-takeover provisions that limit the ability of stockholders to take certain actions and could delay or discourage takeover attempts that stockholders may consider favorable.

The Proposed Organizational Documents that will be in effect upon consummation of the Business Combination, and the DGCL, contain provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. These provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of New Bowlero common stock, and therefore depress the trading price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock. These provisions could also make it difficult for stockholders to take certain actions, including electing directors who are not nominated by the current members of New Bowlero Board or taking other corporate actions, including effecting changes in our management. Among other things, the Proposed Organizational Documents include provisions regarding:

•        shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock will have 10 votes per share, while shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock will have one vote per share;

•        the ability of the New Bowlero Board to issue shares of preferred stock, including “blank check” preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;

•        providing for the removal of directors only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, if the New Bowlero Class B common stock represents less than 50% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders;

•        the limitation of the liability of, and the indemnification of, the directors and officers of New Bowlero;

•        empowering only New Bowlero Board to fill any vacancy on New Bowlero Board whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number of directors or otherwise;

•        prohibiting stockholders to act by written consent if the New Bowlero Class B common stock represents less than 50% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders;

•        to the extent permitted by law, prohibiting stockholders from calling a special meeting of stockholders if the New Bowlero Class B common stock represents less than 50% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders;

•        the ability of New Bowlero Board to amend the bylaws, which may allow New Bowlero Board to take additional actions to prevent an unsolicited takeover and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend the bylaws to facilitate an unsolicited takeover attempt; and

•        advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to New Bowlero Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which could preclude stockholders from bringing matters before annual or special meetings of stockholders and delay changes in New Bowlero Board and also may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of New Bowlero.

Additionally, our certificate of incorporation provides that we are not governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, which, in the absence of such provisions, would have imposed additional requirements regarding mergers and other business combinations. However, our certificate of incorporation will include a provision that restricts us from engaging in any business combination with an interested stockholder for three years following the date that person becomes an interested stockholder, but such restrictions shall not apply to any business combination if certain conditions are met.

Any issuance by us of preferred stock could delay or prevent a change in control of us. New Bowlero Board will have the authority to cause us to issue, without any further vote or action by the stockholders, shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to designate the number of shares constituting any series, and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption, redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of such series. The issuance of shares of our preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control without further action by the stockholders, even where stockholders are offered a premium for their shares.

In addition, as long as Atairos and Mr. Shannon beneficially own at least a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock, Atairos and Mr. Shannon will be able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of our certificate of incorporation and certain corporate transactions. Together, these certificate of incorporation, bylaw and statutory provisions could make the removal of management more difficult and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our common stock. Furthermore, the existence of the foregoing provisions, as well as the significant common stock beneficially owned by Atairos and Mr. Shannon could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of us, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your common stock in an acquisition.

Our certificate of incorporation will contain a provision renouncing our interest and expectancy in certain corporate opportunities.

Under our certificate of incorporation, none of Atairos or any affiliates of Atairos, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, stockholders, members or partners, will have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities, similar business activities, or lines of business in which we operate. In addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no officer or director of ours who is also an officer, director, employee, managing director or other affiliate of Atairos will be liable to us or our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of the fact that any such individual directs a corporate opportunity to Atairos, instead of us, or does not communicate information regarding a corporate opportunity to us that the officer, director, employee, managing director, or other affiliate has directed to Atairos. These potential conflicts of interest could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects if attractive corporate opportunities are allocated by Atairos to itself or its affiliates instead of to us.

Our certificate of incorporation will provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.

Our certificate of incorporation will provide that, unless New Bowlero otherwise consents in writing, the Court of Chancery (the “Chancery Court”) of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction, another court of the State of Delaware or, if no court of the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, then the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) will be the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of New Bowlero, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, employee, agent or stockholder of New Bowlero to New Bowlero or any of the New Bowlero’s stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Proposed Certificate of Incorpoiration or the Proposed Bylaws or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the “internal affairs doctrine”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any claims arising under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

We recognize that the forum selection clause in our certificate of incorporation may impose additional litigation costs on stockholders in pursuing any such claims, particularly if the stockholders do not reside in or near the State of Delaware. Additionally, the forum selection clause in our certificate of incorporation may limit our stockholders’ ability to bring a claim in a forum that they find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and employees even though an action, if successful, might benefit our stockholders. The Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware may also reach different judgments or results than would other courts, including courts where a stockholder considering an action may be located or would otherwise choose to bring the action, and such judgments may be more or less favorable to us than our stockholders.

Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to have consented to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation described above. The choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. However, the enforceability of similar forum provisions (including exclusive federal forum provisions for actions, suits or proceedings asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act) in other companies’ organizational documents has been challenged in legal proceedings and there is uncertainty as to whether courts would enforce the exclusive forum provisions in our certificate of incorporation. If a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We cannot predict the impact that New Bowlero’s dual class structure may have on the stock price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock.

We cannot predict whether New Bowlero’s dual class structure will result in a lower or more volatile market price of New Bowlero’s Class A common stock or in adverse publicity or other adverse consequences. For example, certain index providers have announced restrictions on including companies with multiple-class share structures in certain of their indexes. In July 2017, FTSE Russell and S&P Dow Jones announced that they would cease to allow most newly public companies utilizing dual or multi-class capital structures to be included in their indices. Affected indices include the Russell 2000 and the S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400 and S&P SmallCap 600, which together make up the S&P Composite 1500. Beginning in 2017, MSCI, a leading stock index provider, opened public consultations on their treatment of no-vote and multi-class structures and temporarily barred new multi-class listings from certain of its indices; however, in October 2018, MSCI announced its decision to include equity securities “with unequal voting structures” in its indices and to launch a new index that specifically includes voting rights in its eligibility criteria. Under the announced policies, our dual class capital structure would make us ineligible for inclusion in certain indices, and as a result, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and other investment vehicles that attempt to passively track those indices will not be investing in our stock. These policies are still fairly new and it is as of yet unclear what effect, if any, they will have on the valuations of publicly traded companies excluded from the indices, but it is possible that they may depress these valuations compared to those of other similar companies that are included. Because of our dual class structure, we will likely be excluded from certain of these indexes and we cannot assure you that other stock indexes will not take similar actions. Given the sustained flow of investment funds into passive strategies that seek to track certain indexes, exclusion from stock indexes would likely preclude investment by many of these funds and could make shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock less attractive to other investors. As a result, the market price of shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock could be adversely affected.

The dual class structure of New Bowlero’s common stock, as well as board designation rights of Mr. Shannon and Atairos and consent rights of Atairos will have the effect of concentrating voting power with Mr. Shannon and Atairos, which will limit an investor’s ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.

Shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock will have 10 votes per share, while shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock will have one vote per share. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Mr. Shannon will hold all of the issued and outstanding shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock. Accordingly, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Mr. Shannon will, directly or indirectly, hold approximately 84.7% of the voting power of New Bowlero’s capital stock and will be able to control matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, amendments of our organizational documents and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets or other major corporate transactions. So long as at least 18.1% of the outstanding of shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock remain outstanding, the holders of New Bowlero Class B common stock will be able to control the outcome of matters submitted to a stockholder vote requiring a majority vote. These percentages assume (i) that no public shareholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, (ii) no exercise of the warrants or issuance of any Earnout Shares, (iii) Mr. Shannon receives 1,422,813 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock as the stock portion of the transaction bonus, (iv) none of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering or issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement are converted into New Bowlero common stock, and (v) that an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock are issued to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Common PIPE Offering and the Forward Purchase Investors pursuant to the Forward Purchase Investment. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, this percentage voting power retained by Isos’s existing shareholders in New Bowlero will be different.

In addition, pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, Mr. Shannon and Atairos will have board designation rights and Atairos will also have certain consent rights. See “— Following the completion of the Business Combination, Bowlero’s founder and Chief Executive Officer and Atairos will have certain board nomination rights that will enable them to exercise substantial control over all corporate actions, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to stockholders for a vote.”

Mr. Shannon and Atairos may have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of New Bowlero, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of New Bowlero, and might ultimately affect the market price of shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, Bowlero’s founder and Chief Executive Officer will control a significant percentage of our voting power and will be able to exert significant control over the direction of our business.

Immediately following the Business Combination, Thomas F. Shannon, our founder, Chief Executive Officer and director will hold shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock that will entitle him to 10 votes per share of New Bowlero Class B common stock, which we estimate will provide him with approximately 84.7% of the voting power of New Bowlero immediately after the Business Combination despite holding only 35.6% of the total shares of New Bowlero common stock. These percentages assume (i) that no public shareholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, (ii) no exercise of the warrants or issuance of any Earnout Shares, (iii) Mr. Shannon receives 1,422,813 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock as the stock portion of the transaction bonus, (iv) none of the New Bowlero preferred stock issued in the Preferred PIPE Offering or issued to Atairos pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement are converted into New Bowlero common stock, and (v) that an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock are issued to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Common PIPE Offering and the Forward Purchase Investors pursuant to the Forward Purchase Investment. Accordingly, for so long as Mr. Shannon continues to control a significant percentage of the voting power of New Bowlero, he will be able to significantly influence the composition of New Bowlero Board and management and the approval of actions requiring stockholder approval. The concentration of ownership could also deprive you of an opportunity to receive a premium for your shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock as part of a sale of us and ultimately might affect the market price of New Bowlero Class A common stock.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, our founder and Chief Executive Officer and Atairos will have certain board nomination rights that will enable them to exercise substantial control over all corporate actions, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to stockholders for a vote.

Contemporaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Isos entered into a Stockholders Agreement with Atairos and TS, which Mr. Shannon controls, which will become effective upon consummation of the Business Combination. Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, each of Atairos and TS will have the right to designate nominees for election to the New Bowlero Board following the Business Combination at any meeting of its stockholders. The number of nominees that each of Atairos and TS will be entitled to nominate pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement is dependent on their respective beneficial ownership of the New Bowlero Class A common stock and the New Bowlero Class B common stock. For so long as Atairos and its affiliates own (i) 15% or more of the combined New Bowlero Class A common stock and the New Bowlero Class B common stock, Atairos will be entitled to designate three directors to the New Bowlero Board and (ii) less than 15% but at least 5%, Atairos will be entitled to designate one director to the New Bowlero Board. For so long as TS and its affiliates own (i) 15% or more of the combined New Bowlero Class A common stock and the New Bowlero Class B common stock, TS will be entitled to designate three directors to the New Bowlero Board and (ii) less than 15% but at least 5%, TS will be entitled to designate one director to the New Bowlero Board.

In addition, the Stockholders Agreement will grant to Atairos special governance rights for so long as Atairos and its affiliates collectively maintain beneficial ownership of at least 15% of the combined New Bowlero Class A common stock and the New Bowlero Class B common stock, including, but not limited to, rights of approval over certain strategic transactions such as mergers or other similar transactions in significance that is above 15% of the total enterprise value of New Bowlero, joint ventures involving investment or contribution in excess of 15% of the total enterprise value of New Bowlero, incurring indebtedness above a certain threshold, increasing the size of the board of directors, and issuing capital stock representing more than 15% of the outstanding common stock or creating a capital stock that is senior to the common stock.

Accordingly, for so long as Atairos and Mr. Shannon continue to control a significant percentage of the voting power of New Bowlero, they will be able to significantly influence the composition of New Bowlero Board and management and the approval of actions requiring stockholder approval. The concentration of ownership could also deprive you of an opportunity to receive a premium for your shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock as part of a sale of us and ultimately might affect the market price of New Bowlero Class A common stock.

We will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of the NYSE and the rules of the SEC. As a result, we will qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that would otherwise provide protection to stockholders of other companies.

Immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, Thomas F. Shannon, our founder, Chief Executive Officer and director will control a majority of the voting power of New Bowlero. As a result, New Bowlero will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE. Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including:

•        the requirement that a majority of New Bowlero Board consist of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of the NYSE;

•        the requirement that New Bowlero have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities;

•        the requirement that New Bowlero have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; and

•        the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, New Bowlero does not intend to utilize any of these exemptions. However, New Bowlero will be able to utilize any of these exemptions at its discretion for so long as it is a “controlled company.” Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

Risks Related to the Consummation of the Domestication

The Domestication may result in adverse tax consequences for holders of Isos Class A ordinary shares and warrants.

U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” below) may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the Domestication. Because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of Isos Class A ordinary shares, U.S. Holders exercising redemption rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of the Domestication.

A U.S. Holder who on the date of the Domestication beneficially owns (actually or constructively) Isos Class A ordinary shares with a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the Domestication will not recognize any gain or loss and will not be required to include any part of our earnings in income. A U.S. Holder who on the date of the Domestication beneficially owns (actually or constructively) Isos Class A ordinary shares with a fair market value of $50,000 or more, but is not a U.S. Shareholder, generally will recognize gain (but not loss) in respect of the Domestication as if such U.S. Holder exchanged its Isos Class A ordinary shares for New Bowlero Class A common stock in a taxable transaction, unless such U.S. Holder elects in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to the Isos Class A ordinary shares held directly by such U.S. Holder. A U.S. Shareholder will generally be required to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations) attributable to the Isos Class A ordinary shares held directly by such U.S. Holder.

As discussed more fully under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — PFIC Considerations,” if Isos were to be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain U.S. Holders may be subject to adverse tax consequences as a result of the Domestication. However, provided that the Domestication is completed in Isos’s current taxable year and the IRS respects the election that will be made with respect to Isos’s current taxable year, Isos believes that it will not be classified as a PFIC for such taxable year because it will qualify in such tax year for the “start-up exception.” The applicability of the start-up exception is subject to substantial uncertainty and U.S. Holders are urged to consult with their own tax advisors in this regard.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of New Bowlero common stock arising under the DGCL as well as Proposed Organizational Documents will differ from and may be less favorable to the rights of holders of Isos A ordinary shares arising under the Cayman Islands Companies Act as well as our current memorandum and articles of association.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of New Bowlero common stock will arise under the Proposed Organizational Documents as well as the DGCL. Those new organizational documents and the DGCL contain provisions that differ in some respects from those in our current memorandum and articles of association and the Cayman Islands Companies Act and, therefore, some rights of holders of New Bowlero common stock could differ from the rights that holders of Isos Class A ordinary shares currently possess. For instance, while class actions are generally not available to shareholders under Cayman Islands Companies Act, such actions are generally available under the DGCL. This change could increase the likelihood that New Bowlero becomes involved in costly litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on New Bowlero.

In addition, there are differences between the new organizational documents of New Bowlero and the current constitutional documents of Isos. For a more detailed description of the rights of holders of New Bowlero common stock and how they may differ from the rights of holders of Isos Class A ordinary shares, please see “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Stockholder Rights.” The forms of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws of New Bowlero are attached as Annexes B and C, respectively, to this proxy statement/prospectus and we urge you to read them.

Risks Related to the Redemption

There is no guarantee that an Isos stockholder’s decision whether to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account will put such stockholder in a better future economic position.

No assurance can be given as to the price at which a stockholder may be able to sell his, her or its public shares in the future following the completion of the Business Combination. Certain events following the consummation of any business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in our stock price, and may result in a lower value realized now than an Isos stockholder might realize in the future had the stockholder not elected to redeem such stockholder’s public shares. Similarly, if an Isos public stockholder does not redeem his, her or its shares, such stockholder will bear the risk of ownership of New Bowlero common stock after the consummation of the Business Combination, and there can be no assurance that a stockholder can sell his, her or its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. Isos stockholders are urged to consult with their own tax and/or financial advisors for assistance on how this may affect their individual situation.

If Isos stockholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account.

To exercise their redemption rights, holders are required to deliver their stock, either physically or electronically using DTC’s DWAC System, to Isos’s transfer agent prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting. If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this proxy statement/prospectus and the Business Combination with Bowlero is consummated, Isos will redeem these shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the trust account and the holder will no longer own such shares following the Business Combination. See the section titled “Extraordinary General Meeting of Isos Shareholders — Redemption Rights” for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Defined terms included below have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Introduction

Isos is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of Bowlero becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Isos. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses” to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). Isos has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Isos is a blank check company that was incorporated in Cayman Islands on December 29, 2020, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On March 5, 2021, Isos consummated its IPO of 22,500,000 Isos Units at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, with each Isos Unit consisting of one Isos Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of one Isos Warrant, resulting in gross proceeds of $225.0 million (before underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses).

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor and LionTree subscribed for 5,750,000 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. In March 2021, Isos effected a stock dividend resulting in the Sponsor and LionTree holding an aggregate of 6,468,750 Founder Shares. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, Isos sold 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants in a private placement transaction at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor and LionTree. As a result of this transaction and after giving effect to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option discussed below, Isos sold a total of 5,397,828 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor and LionTree, resulting in gross proceeds to Isos of $8,096,742. Each Private Placement Warrant sold in the private placement is identical to the warrants included in the Isos Units sold in the IPO, except that the Private Placement Warrants: (i) are not redeemable by Isos and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees.

On March 10, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option to purchase 2,983,700 additional Isos Units.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 assumes that the Business Combination occurred on June 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 present pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed on January 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect what the Post-Combination Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the acquisition occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the Post-Combination Company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

The historical financial information of Isos was derived from the unaudited financial statements of Isos as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The historical financial information of Bowlero as of and for the six months ended June 27, 2021 was derived from the audited financial statements of Bowlero for the year ended June 27, 2021, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This information should be read together with Isos’s and Bowlero’s unaudited financial statements and related notes, the sections titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Isos” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Bowlero” and other financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Description of the Business Combination

On July 1, 2021, Isos entered into the Business Combination Agreement with Bowlero. Isos will change its jurisdiction of registration by deregistering as a Cayman Islands exempted company and continuing and domesticating as a corporation registered under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”). Concurrently with the Domestication, (i) Isos Class A ordinary shares and Isos Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert, on a one-for-one basis, into New Bowlero Class A common stock and (ii) Isos will file the certificate of designations of the New Bowlero preferred stock with the Secretary of State of Delaware for the designation and creation of the New Bowlero preferred stock.

Bowlero will merge with and into Isos, with Isos surviving the Merger. The aggregate consideration to be paid to the holders of Bowlero equity shall consist of (i) an amount of cash of $309,228 thousand, plus (ii) the Per Share Preferred Stock Cash Consideration (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) plus (iii) 119,488,202 shares, including 62,392,209 shares of New Bowlero Class B common stock. In addition, immediately prior to the completion of the Business Combination, certain investors have agreed to subscribe for and purchase 15,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock and 95,000 shares of New Bowlero preferred stock for an aggregate of $245,000 thousand in the PIPE Offerings. In addition, the Forward Purchase Investors have agreed to purchase 10,000,000 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock and warrants to purchase 3,333,333 shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock at $11.50 per share, for an aggregate gross purchase price of $100,000 thousand in the Forward Purchase Investment.

In connection with the Business Combination, certain of Bowlero’s equity holders will receive 20,750,000 earnout shares (the “Bowlero Earnout Consideration”) contingent upon achieving certain market share price milestones within a period of 60 months post Business Combination. None of the earnout shares shall be issued if the set milestones are not reached. The Bowlero Earnout Consideration will be deemed to have been earned in the event of a change of control if the change of control occurs within a period of 60 months post Business Combination if certain conditions are met.

In connection with the Business Combination, an aggregate of 1,611,278 shares of Isos Class B ordinary shares (which will be converted into shares of New Bowlero Class A common stock in connection with the Domestication) and 1,619,348 warrants currently held by the Sponsor and LionTree (the “Sponsor Earnout Consideration”) are subject to forfeiture if the set milestones are not reached within a period of 60 months post Business Combination. 805,639 Isos Class B ordinary shares currently held by the Sponsor and LionTree are subject to forfeiture and will be transferred to Bowlero Stockholders upon the Closing, and an additional 1,340,012 Isos Class B ordinary shares are subject to forfeiture and will be transferred to Bowlero Stockholders upon the Closing if the maximum number of redemptions occurs.

The following table summarizes the pro forma number of shares of New Bowlero Class A and Class B common stock outstanding following the consummation of the Business Combination, the PIPE Offerings and the Forward Purchase Investments under two separate scenarios, discussed further in the sections below, excluding the potential dilutive effect of the exercise or vesting of warrants, stock-based compensation, Bowlero Earnout Consideration, and Sponsor Earnout Consideration:

____________

(1)      The number of shares exclude an aggregate of 805,639 and 2,145,651 shares of common stock being transferred to Bowlero Stockholders at Closing under the “no redemptions” and “maximum redemptions” scenarios, respectively, and exclude an aggregate of 1,611,278 shares subject to the earnout shares provision.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although Isos will acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of Bowlero in the Business Combination, Isos will be treated as the “acquired” company and Bowlero will be treated as the accounting acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Bowlero issuing stock for the net assets of Isos, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Isos will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of Bowlero.

Bowlero has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances under both the minimum and maximum redemption scenarios:

•        Bowlero’s existing stockholders will have the greatest voting interest in the Post-Combination Company;

•        Bowlero’s existing stockholders will have the ability to control decisions regarding election and removal of directors and officers of the Post-Combination Company;

•        Bowlero will comprise the ongoing operations of the Post-Combination Company;

•        Bowlero’s relevant measures, such as assets, revenues, cash flows and earnings, are higher than Isos’; and

•        Bowlero’s existing senior management will be the senior management of the Post-Combination Company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumptions below with respect to the potential redemption for cash of Isos Class A ordinary shares:

•        Assuming No Redemptions:    This presentation assumes that no Public Stockholders of Isos will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the funds in the trust account.

•        Assuming Maximum Redemptions:    This presentation assumes that stockholders holding 7,983,800 shares of Isos Class A ordinary shares will exercise their redemption rights for their pro rata share (approximately $10.00 per share) of the funds in the trust account. The Business Combination Agreement provides that consummating the Business Combination is conditioned on Isos having a minimum of $520,000 thousand of cash on hand (which is inclusive of the proceeds from the PIPE Offerings and the Forward Purchase Investment) whether in or outside the trust account after giving effect to Isos share redemptions. As Isos has received commitments in the PIPE Offerings and pursuant to the Forward Purchase Contract for an aggregate of $345,000 thousand and the trust account had balances of approximately $254,838 thousand, the maximum redemption scenario assumes all shares of Isos Class A ordinary shares held by the Public Stockholders, except those required to retain $520,000 thousand in the trust account. This scenario gives effect to Public Share redemptions of 7,983,800 Isos Class A ordinary shares for aggregate redemption payments of $79,838 thousand using a per share redemption price of $10.00 per share.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are based on the unaudited historical financial statements of Isos and Bowlero. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on information currently available, and assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions used to present the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and include immaterial rounding differences.
