On August 20, 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 redeemable 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 had 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 (“Over-Allotment Units”). On August 22, 2018, the underwriters exercised a portion of the option and purchased 3,000,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000.

On August 20, 2018, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 11,800,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to Giant Fortune International Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Symphony Holdings Limited (collectively, “Symphony”), 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. On August 22, 2018, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Company consummated a private sale of an additional 1,200,000 private placement warrants to Symphony, generating gross proceeds of $600,000.

A total of $250,000,000, comprised of $243,500,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Over-Allotment Units and $6,500,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants and the private placement warrants on August 22, 2018, 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.

An audited balance sheet as of August 20, 2018 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement, but not the proceeds from the sale of the Over-Allotment Units nor the private placement on August 22, 2018, has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

A copy of the press release issued by the Company announcing the consummation of the sale of the Over-Allotment Units is included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
