On August 15, 2018, TKK Symphony Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 22,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), one warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one half of one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per whole share and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $220,000,000. The Company has granted EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., (“EBC”), the representative of the several underwriters in the IPO, a 45-day option to purchase up to 3,300,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Warrant Subscription Agreement, dated August 15, 2018, by and between the Company and Giant Fortune International Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Symphony Holdings Limited (collectively, “Symphony”), the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 11,800,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), which were sold to Symphony at a purchase price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,900,000. Symphony has committed to purchase up to an additional 1,320,000 Private Placement Warrants if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants sold in the IPO, except that the Private Placement Warrants are not redeemable by the Company so long as they are held by Symphony or its permitted transferees. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On August 15, 2018, in connection with the IPO, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Cayman Islands General Registry, effective the same day. The terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association are set forth in the Registration Statement and are incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
A total of $220,000,000, comprised of $214,100,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and $5,900,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any of the Company’s public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if it does not complete its initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO (subject to an extension as described below) or (iii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if it is unable to complete its initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 22 months from the closing of the IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a business combination through issuance of the potential extension warrants, as described in more detail in the Registration Statement), subject to applicable law.
