SEC-verified vehicles of the same sponsor, predating these roles and carrying none of them. The badge counts them; the figure beside this one does not.
Mergers closed across all 3 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 3.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

Jeffrey Todd Lager, CFA, MBA, is a corporate director and advisor based in Incline Village, Nevada, who currently serves as an Independent Director of Mountain Lake Acquisition Corporation II (NASDAQ: MLAA), a blank check company formed to effect a business combination with an established, scalable business. He has served on the MLAA board since January 2026 and chairs the Nominating and Governance Committee. Lager is also an Independent Director of Mountain Lake Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: MLAC), the predecessor SPAC in the Mountain Lake franchise, which raised $230 million in its December 2024 IPO on the Nasdaq Global Market, selling 23 million units at $10.00 per unit including the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option. BTIG, LLC served as sole book-running manager for that offering. At MLAC, Lager served alongside CEO and Chairman Paul Grinberg, CFO and President Douglas Horlick, and fellow directors Michael Marquez and Jaime W. Vieser. Lager was also a director and 10% owner of MLAC, and SEC Form 4 filings document his insider ownership and transactions in the company's Class A and Class B ordinary shares, including the conversion and surrender of founder shares in connection with MLAC's business combination with Avalanche Treasury Corporation, which was consummated pursuant to a Business Combination Agreement dated October 1, 2025, as amended in January and March 2026.
Lager's professional background is anchored by a long career in public equity investing. He is a retired Partner, Principal Investment Officer, and Portfolio Manager at Capital Group/American Funds, one of the largest and most storied active investment management organizations in the United States. According to SEC filings, Lager has over 28 years of public equity investment experience, and his LinkedIn profile describes him as a corporate director and advisor in retirement from that role. His credentials include the Chartered Financial Analyst designation and an MBA, and his LinkedIn profile references Stanford University among his educational affiliations. Today, in addition to his SPAC board roles, Lager serves as an investor in, advisor to, and director of several other public and private companies, leveraging his decades of experience in identifying and capitalizing on emerging technological and secular trends across sectors.
The Mountain Lake SPAC platform has been Lager's primary public-company governance focus in recent years. The management team and board of both MLAC and MLAA emphasize deep operational and oversight expertise as executives and investors across public and private companies, as well as acquisition and fundraising experience spanning multiple decades. The team's prior SPAC experience and transaction execution capabilities are cited as competitive strengths in the companies' SEC filings. Lager's role as a 10% owner and director of MLAC, combined with his governance committee leadership at MLAA, positions him as a central figure in the Mountain Lake franchise's efforts to identify, evaluate, and acquire attractive business combination targets and to deliver post-transaction guidance to portfolio company management teams. His insider filings reflect active participation in the sponsor and founder share economics of the SPAC structure, including the surrender of 15,888 Class B ordinary shares for cancellation and the conversion of remaining Class B shares into Class A shares in connection with MLAC's completed business combination.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0002047893 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 4 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 4 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
