Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the registrant identity, because the source text names Conyers Park II Acquisition Corp. rather than Advantage Solutions Inc.
- Review Exhibit 99.1 for the audited balance sheet, cash balances, offering costs, and liabilities.
- Confirm the trust-account restrictions, permitted withdrawals, and 24-month business-combination deadline.
- Review the terms, exercise conditions, and potential dilution from the public and private placement warrants.
